Generative modeling has shown strong promise for multivariate time mseries (MTS) forecasting, especially scale to high-dimensional settings. Diffusion-based methods achieve competitive performance but typically require many sampling steps at inference. VAE-based non-iterative forecasting frameworks have therefore emerg …

On-policy distillation (OPD) trains a student on its own reasoning trajectories using feedback from a stronger teacher. Teacher interventions can improve these trajectories, but also change the distribution on which the student learns. Our controlled studies show that rollout quality alone is an incomplete criterion fo …

Parameter-efficient adaptation enables continual learners to acquire task-specific knowledge through compact model updates while maintaining strong within-task performance. However, class-incremental inference requires each input to be classified among all classes seen so far without access to its task identity. For le …
