Beyond Ensembles: Simulating All-Atom Protein Dynamics in a Learned Latent Space

ICLR 2026poster

Simulating the long-timescale dynamics of biomolecules is a central challenge in computational science. While enhanced sampling methods can accelerate these simulations, they rely on pre-defined collective variables that are often difficult to identify, restricting their ability to model complex swi…

Carré du champ flow matching: better quality-generalisation tradeoff in generative models

ICLR 2026poster

Deep generative models often face a fundamental tradeoff: high sample quality can come at the cost of memorisation, where the model reproduces training data rather than generalising across the underlying data geometry. We introduce Carré du champ flow matching (CDC-FM), a generalisation of flow matc…

Riemannian Metric Matching for Scalable Geometric Modeling of Distributions

ICML 2026oral

High-dimensional datasets often concentrate near low-dimensional structures, but estimating their geometry from samples typically relies on graphs and kernels that scale poorly with dataset size and dimension. We propose **Riemannian metric matching**: a denoising probabilistic framework for learnin…

Boosting Protein Graph Representations through Static-Dynamic Fusion

ICML 2025poster

Machine learning for protein modeling faces significant challenges due to proteins' inherently dynamic nature, yet most graph-based machine learning methods rely solely on static structural information. Recently, the growing availability of molecular dynamics trajectories provides new opportunities…

Generative Modeling of Full-Atom Protein Conformations using Latent Diffusion on Graph Embeddings

NeurIPS 2025poster

Generating diverse, all‐atom conformational ensembles of dynamic proteins such as G‐protein‐coupled receptors (GPCRs) is critical for understanding their function, yet most generative models simplify atomic detail or ignore conformational diversity altogether. We present latent diffusion for full pr…

On Vanishing Gradients, Over-Smoothing, and Over-Squashing in GNNs: Bridging Recurrent and Graph Learning

NeurIPS 2025poster

Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) are models that leverage the graph structure to transmit information between nodes, typically through the message-passing operation. While widely successful, this approach is well-known to suffer from representational collapse as the number of layers increases and insens…

Return of ChebNet: Understanding and Improving an Overlooked GNN on Long Range Tasks

NeurIPS 2025spotlight

ChebNet, one of the earliest spectral GNNs, has largely been overshadowed by Message Passing Neural Networks (MPNNs), which gained popularity for their simplicity and effectiveness in capturing local graph structure. Despite their success, MPNNs are limited in their ability to capture long-range dep…

Implicit Gaussian process representation of vector fields over arbitrary latent manifolds

ICLR 2024poster

Gaussian processes (GPs) are popular nonparametric statistical models for learning unknown functions and quantifying the spatiotemporal uncertainty in data. Recent works have extended GPs to model scalar and vector quantities distributed over non-Euclidean domains, including smooth manifolds, appear…

Fast Approximate Spectral Clustering for Dynamic Networks

ICML 2018oral

Spectral clustering is a widely studied problem, yet its complexity is prohibitive for dynamic graphs of even modest size. We claim that it is possible to reuse information of past cluster assignments to expedite computation. Our approach builds on a recent idea of sidestepping the main bottleneck o…

Joint Estimation of the Room Geometry and Modes with Compressed Sensing

ICASSP 2018accepted

Acoustical behavior of a room for a given position of microphone and sound source is usually described using the room impulse response. If we rely on the standard uniform sampling, the estimation of room impulse response for arbitrary positions in the room requires a large number of measurements. In…

Towards stationary time-vertex signal processing

ICASSP 2017accepted

Graph-based methods for signal processing have shown promise for the analysis of data exhibiting irregular structure, such as those found in social, transportation, and sensor networks. Yet, though these systems are often dynamic, state-of-the-art methods for graph signal processing ignore the time…

Accelerated spectral clustering using graph filtering of random signals

ICASSP 2016accepted

We build upon recent advances in graph signal processing to propose a faster spectral clustering algorithm. Indeed, classical spectral clustering is based on the computation of the first k eigenvectors of the similarity matrix' Laplacian, whose computation cost, even for sparse matrices, becomes pro…

Convolutional Neural Networks on Graphs with Fast Localized Spectral Filtering

NeurIPS 2016poster

In this work, we are interested in generalizing convolutional neural networks (CNNs) from low-dimensional regular grids, where image, video and speech are represented, to high-dimensional irregular domains, such as social networks, brain connectomes or words’ embedding, represented by graphs. We pre…

PCA using graph total variation

ICASSP 2016accepted

Mining useful clusters from high dimensional data has received significant attention of the signal processing and machine learning community in the recent years. Linear and non-linear dimensionality reduction has played an important role to overcome the curse of dimensionality. However, often such m…

Song recommendation with non-negative matrix factorization and graph total variation

ICASSP 2016accepted

This work formulates a novel song recommender system as a matrix completion problem that benefits from collaborative filtering through Non-negative Matrix Factorization (NMF) and content-based filtering via total variation (TV) on graphs. The graphs encode both playlist proximity information and son…

Functional Correspondence by Matrix Completion

CVPR 2015poster

In this paper, we consider the problem of finding dense intrinsic correspondence between manifolds using the recently introduced functional framework. We pose the functional correspondence problem as matrix completion with manifold geometric structure and inducing functional localization with the L1…

Laplacian matrix learning for smooth graph signal representation

ICASSP 2015accepted

The construction of a meaningful graph plays a crucial role in the emerging field of signal processing on graphs. In this paper, we address the problem of learning graph Laplacians, which is similar to learning graph topologies, such that the input data form graph signals with smooth variations on t…

Robust Principal Component Analysis on Graphs

ICCV 2015poster

Principal Component Analysis (PCA) is the most widely used tool for linear dimensionality reduction and clustering. Still it is highly sensitive to outliers and does not scale well with respect to the number of data samples. Robust PCA solves the first issue with a sparse penalty term. The second is…
