Generalization bounds are a critical tool to assess the training data requirements of Quantum Machine Learning (QML). Recent work has established guarantees for in-distribution generalization of quantum neural networks (QNNs), where training and testing data are drawn from the same data distribution. However, there are currently no results on out-of-distribution generalization in QML, where we require a trained model to perform well even on data drawn from a different distribution to the training distribution. Here, we prove out-of-distribution generalization for the task of learning an unknown unitary. In particular, we show that one can learn the action of a unitary on entangled states having trained only product states. Since product states can be prepared using only single-qubit gates, this advances the prospects of learning quantum dynamics on near term quantum hardware, and further opens up new methods for both the classical and quantum compilation of quantum circuits.

Pathology provides the definitive diagnosis, and Artificial Intelligence (AI) tools are poised to improve accuracy, inter-rater agreement, and turn-around time (TAT) of pathologists, leading to improved quality of care. A high value clinical application is the grading of Lymph Node Metastasis (LNM) which is used for breast cancer staging and guides treatment decisions. A challenge of implementing AI tools widely for LNM classification is domain shift, where Out-of-Distribution (OOD) data has a different distribution than the In-Distribution (ID) data used to train the model, resulting in a drop in performance in OOD data.

Whether it is listening to a piece of music, learning a new language, or solving a mathematical equation, people often acquire abstract notions in the sense of motifs and variables-manifested in musical themes, grammatical categories, or mathematical symbols. How do we create abstract representations of sequences? Are these abstract representations useful for memory recall? In addition to learning transition probabilities, chunking, and tracking ordinal positions, we propose that humans also use abstractions to arrive at efficient representations of sequences. We propose and study two abstraction categories: projectional motifs and variable motifs.

Coarse-grained models have become ubiquitous in biomolecular modeling tasks aimed at studying slow dynamical processes such as protein folding and DNA hybridization. These models can considerably accelerate sampling but it remains challenging to accurately and efficiently restore all-atom detail to the coarse-grained trajectory, which can be vital for detailed understanding of molecular mechanisms and calculation of observables contingent on all-atom coordinates. In this work, we introduce FlowBack as a deep generative model employing a flow-matching objective to map samples from a coarse-grained prior distribution to an all-atom data distribution.

Deep learning can help uncover patterns in resting-state functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (rs-fMRI) associated with psychiatric disorders and personal traits. Yet the problem of interpreting deep learning findings is rarely more evident than in fMRI analyses, as the data is sensitive to scanning effects and inherently difficult to visualize. We propose a simple approach to mitigate these challenges grounded on sparsification and self-supervision.

Identifying transitional states is crucial for understanding protein conformational changes that underlie numerous biological processes. Markov state models (MSMs), built from Molecular Dynamics (MD) simulations, capture these dynamics through transitions among metastable conformational states, and have demonstrated success in studying protein conformational changes. However, MSMs face challenges in identifying transition states, as they partition MD conformations into discrete metastable states (or free energy minima), lacking description of transition states located at the free energy barriers.
