Critically-Damped Higher-Order Langevin Dynamics
Denoising Diffusion Probabilistic Models represent an entirely new class of generative AI methods that have yet to be fully explored. Critical damping has been successfully introduced in Critically-Damped Langevin Dynamics (CLD) and Critically-Damped Third-Order Langevin Dynamics (TOLD++), but has not yet been applied to dynamics of arbitrary order. The proposed line of work generalizes Higher-Order Langevin Dynamics (HOLD), a recent state-of-the-art diffusion method, by introducing the concept…

Neural Langevin Machine: a local asymmetric learning rule can be creative
Fixed points of recurrent neural networks can be leveraged to store and generate information. These fixed points can be captured by the Boltzmann-Gibbs measure, which leads to neural Langevin dynamics that can be used for sampling and learning a real dataset. We call this type of generative model neural Langevin machine, which is interpretable due to its analytic form of distribution and is simple to train. Moreover, the learning process is derived as a local asymmetric plasticity rule, bearing…

Diffusion and heat dissipation in marginally stable linear time-delayed Langevin systems
We investigate the dynamics and heat dissipation in marginally stable linear time-delayed Langevin systems. We analytically characterize two distinct critical classes: (i) diffusive criticality, where the variance grows linearly with suppressed/enhanced diffusion due to time-delayed forces, and (ii) oscillatory criticality, exhibiting oscillations with diffusing amplitude. Crucially, we derive asymptotic heat dissipation rates, revealing fundamentally different thermodynamic signatures: a const…

Querying Attack-Fault-Defense Trees: Property Specification in Smart Grid and Aerospace Case Studies
This paper introduces AFDL, a logic-based framework for reasoning about safety, security, and defense interactions in Attack-Fault-Defense Trees, which is a model that captures all safety, security, and defense domains in a single framework. We showcase both AFDL and propose a structured domain specific query language, LangAFDL, which enables domain experts to express complex analysis goals through intuitive templates. LangAFDL supports both Boolean and quantified queries as well as minimal cut…

Characterization of mini-CryoCube detectors from the Ricochet experiment commissioning at the Institut Laue-Langevin
The Ricochet experiment aims to measure the coherent elastic neutrino-nucleus scattering process from antineutrinos emitted by a research nuclear reactor operated by the Institut Laue-Langevin (Grenoble, France). This article presents a description of the Ricochet experimental installation and the detector performance achieved during its commissioning with a mini-CryoCube module consisting of three 42-gram germanium cryogenic calorimeters. The baseline resolutions and background levels are repo…

Shifted Composition IV: Underdamped Langevin and Numerical Discretizations with Partial Acceleration
Quantifying the convergence rate of the underdamped Langevin dynamics (ULD) is a classical topic, in large part due to the possibility for diffusive-to-ballistic speedups -- as was recently established for the continuous-time dynamics via space-time Poincare inequalities. A central challenge for analyzing ULD is that its degeneracy necessitates the development of new analysis approaches, e.g., the theory of hypocoercivity. In this paper, we give a new coupling-based framework for analyzing ULD …
