Optimal Control for Transformer Architectures: Enhancing Generalization, Robustness and Efficiency

NeurIPS 2025poster

We study Transformers through the perspective of optimal control theory, using tools from continuous-time formulations to derive actionable insights into training and architecture design. This framework improves the performance of existing Transformer models while providing desirable theoretical gua…

Learning Quantile Functions without Quantile Crossing for Distribution-free Time Series Forecasting

AISTATS 2022poster

Quantile regression is an effective technique to quantify uncertainty, fit challenging underlying distributions, and often provide full probabilistic predictions through joint learnings over multiple quantile levels. A common drawback of these joint quantile regressions, however, is quantile crossin…

Multivariate Quantile Function Forecaster

AISTATS 2022poster

We propose Multivariate Quantile Function Forecaster (MQF2), a global probabilistic forecasting method constructed using a multivariate quantile function and investigate its application to multi-horizon forecasting. Prior approaches are either autoregressive, implicitly capturing the dependency stru…
