Improving a language model today means retraining it: enormous compute, a new opaque model each cycle, non-deterministic output. We take the opposite path: the model stays frozen, and a persistent memory of verified solutions grows beside it.

Variational autoencoders (VAEs) transform high-dimensional, often noisy data into a compact latent representation, making downstream optimization more tractable. Three challenges persist in VAE-based constrained optimization: (i) sampling effectively within the latent space,…

Hierarchical neural networks are widely used in artificial intelligence, yet their mathematical properties remain incompletely understood. In the infinite-width limit, two different theoretical frameworks have been proposed.

In this paper, we develop a trust-region framework for understanding the behavior of adaptive moment estimation mechanisms, such as \textsc{Adam}, in stochastic gradient optimization.

Agentic tasks are inherently long-horizon and multi-turn, constantly accumulating context through interactions with the environment. Existing context compression methods inevitably incur information loss and are triggered by rigid heuristic rules, leaving them misaligned with…

Modern System-on-Chip (SoCs) often contain hundreds of millions to tens of billions of gates, making existing Hardware Trojan (HT) detection methods impractical due to their immense scale.

Firms struggle to choose AI projects that pay off: two projects can look equally promising to smart, motivated stakeholders and yet deserve opposite decisions. At the residential real-estate brokerage Compass, one AI product (Likely-to-Sell recommendations) flagged sales…

Stock recommendation systems face the dual challenge of adapting to rapidly changing market conditions while maintaining low-latency predictions for end users. Traditional batch-trained models fail to capture concept drift, and monolithic architectures struggle to provide fault…

Multilingual reasoning evaluation overwhelmingly relies on translating English benchmarks, a practice that introduces linguistic artifacts and fails to test culturally-grounded reasoning.

Most endangered languages lack the parallel data required for machine translation, despite the existence of descriptive grammar books. We introduce a pipeline that uses large language models to extract grammatical rules, example sentences, and lexicons from grammar books and…

Multiclass classification is a fundamental problem across a wide range of domains. It is still challenging due to possession of high inter-class similarity, class imbalance datasets, and variability in data distributions.

Pluralistic value alignment---the goal of building AI systems that represent and serve diverse human values and perspectives---has emerged as an active research agenda. Yet, there's no public evidence that it has shaped the training or evaluation of the AI systems people…

Large Language Models (LLMs) are increasingly deployed as autonomous agents, transitioning from static conversational interfaces to dynamic systems capable of complex reasoning, tool execution, and decision-making.

Understanding how robots and humans move in shared spaces is essential for designing effective social robot navigation policies and predicting human behavior. However, existing datasets often lack the diversity needed to capture differences in culture, geography, and human-robot…

Optical scattering has conventionally been regarded as an impediment in imaging research due to the degradation of image quality during reconstruction. Nevertheless, this study explores two cases in which optical scattering may serve a beneficial role in image reconstruction…

Reuse-based development has become increasingly important in the creation of complex systems, offering significant opportunities to reduce costs, improve quality, and accelerate time-to-market.

AI weather models are in the process of revolutionising weather forecasting. While these models have been shown to achieve superior performance to physics-based NWP in forecasting tropical cyclone (TC) tracks, they tend to dramatically underestimate intensity.

Despite rapid progress, most existing vision-language models (VLMs) built from 2D visual inputs often struggle when handling various 3D tasks that require fine-grained spatial understanding and reasoning.

We present CUP, a Greek book retrieval benchmark consisting of 868 catalog records and 104 expert-annotated queries with graded relevance judgments. We evaluate sparse (BM25), dense (sentence-transformers), hybrid, and LLM-assisted retrieval methods in this book-search setting.

Due to the complexity of neural network loss landscapes, optimization theory is forced to rely on idealized models, and there is generally a tradeoff between how theoretically tractable the model is, and how accurately it describes the true optimization dynamics.

Mobile-health interventions increasingly use online learning and decision making algorithms to personalize when to nudge users toward healthier behavior, but a poorly designed algorithm can burden and disengage participants.

We present a traffic-signal control interface in which a shared graph neural network assigns scores to individual traffic movements. Each junction converts these scores into its own variable-sized set of legal signal phases using a deterministic incidence matrix.

Whole-slide survival models commonly provide risk rankings without calibrated statements about individual event times. We evaluate fixed-cutoff drcosarc, a post-hoc conformal wrapper for discrete-time multiple-instance learning survival heads using frozen UNI2-h representations,…
