Distilling conditional diffusion models aims to transfer the behavior of a large teacher to a smaller student while preserving alignment across conditioning inputs. Unlike recognition tasks, knowledge distillation in conditional diffusion often struggles to transfer knowledge…

Explanation requires ground truth: to verify an account of a system we must know its inner functioning-just what is missing where explainable AI (XAI) is most needed. Systems we can study fall into two camps.

We propose Markov Chain from Human Feedback (MCHF), an elementary approach for aligning generative models from pairwise human preferences. Unlike Reinforcement Learning from Human Feedback (RLHF), which reduces comparisons to a scalar reward, and Nash Learning from Human…

Causal reasoning, which encompasses the discovery of causal structures and the inference of causal effects, is fundamental to data-driven decision making. In practice, data for reliable causal analysis are often distributed across institutions and cannot be centralized due to…

Successful conversations require speakers to align on the meaning of concepts, a challenging but crucial task for human-robot interaction. Understanding the process of establishing such alignment is hindered by competing interpretations of the term and isolated, unidirectional…

Generative models have revolutionized the process of materials discovery, yet they often fail to satisfy underlying physical causality. Through an analysis of Large Language Models (LLMs) augmented with knowledge graphs derived from current literature, we uncover a phenomenon…

This paper introduces $π$-RAG, a novel architecture for oblivious retrieval that decouples Large Language Models (LLMs) from sensitive data storage without sacrificing semantic understanding.

In this study, we propose a novel pipeline for generic, model-agnostic, local-level counterfactual explainability in graph neural networks (GNNs). Although counterfactual explainers capable of both adding and removing edges have emerged in recent years, the need for generic and…

Laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) faces challenges in high-accuracy quantitative measurement under few-shot scenarios due to spectral noise and data scarcity. Traditional preprocessing methods often fail to preserve subtle spectral features or capture nonlinear…

It is tempting to assume any task solvable by a short program can be taught to a model as its chain-of-thought: write the steps out, fine-tune, and the model follows. This paper shows the assumption fails for an identifiable class of procedures.

Conversational AI promises a new kind of preparation for high-stakes workplace negotiations -- personalized, interactive, and capable of simulating realistic resistance. That promise is intuitive. We built Trucey, a theory-driven coaching system, to test it.

The ability to synthesize realistic X-ray images has catalyzed the development of AI models for X-ray image-guided procedures, which otherwise suffer from a lack of available annotated data.

A Prior-data fitted Network learns the posterior predictive induced by its training prior; bringing this paradigm to multivariate time-series classification therefore calls for a synthetic generator that produces complete labelled datasets with temporal structure.

We introduce the zero-one censored transformed normal (ZOC-TN) model for proportional responses with potential probability mass at the boundaries 0 and 1. The model combines a censored Gaussian variable with a two-parameter affine-logit transformation on the interior (0,1).

Instruction-conditioned trajectory prediction is an emerging problem in autonomous driving, where a model predicts the future ego trajectory not only from visual scene context and historical motion, but also from a natural-language maneuver instruction.

Continuous optimization methods for learning Directed Acyclic Graphs (DAGs) operate on weighted adjacency matrices and are therefore limited to pairwise causal relationships.
19 Jun 2026
Phishing is a multi-modal threat. We present a hybrid pipeline that scores each modality with its own engine and fuses the results. Three engines are built, deployed, and independently benchmarked: a four-stage URL stack (Domain Guard, lexical model, threat intelligence, and an…

High-stakes reasoning tasks necessitate transparent and verifiable workflows, yet conventional single-model large language models (LLMs) often struggle with hallucination and low interpretability under zero-shot paradigms.
19 Jun 2026
Minimum Spanning Trees have been used in unsupervised learning, particularly in clustering tasks, due to their ability to recognize clusters by removing edges that are considered inconsistent in defining those clusters.
19 Jun 2026
This paper introduces an interpretation of Temporal Behavior Trees (TBTs) as Reward-Petri-Nets (RPNs) for reinforcement learning (RL). Designing reward functions for complex, long-horizon robotic tasks is notoriously difficult, especially when tasks have hierarchical structure…

A finite agent, a machine's digital twin or any bounded reasoner, infers a fixed and noisy world through finite sensors, so its coherent output is a belief: a probability density over states (the Bayes posterior).
19 Jun 2026
Large language models are increasingly proposed for mental-health applications such as detecting suicidal content, raising the question of what they rely on. We study this mechanistically and use it to ask a narrower question: how to make a causal claim about a model's internal…

3D Gaussian Splatting achieves exceptional real-time rendering, but its substantial computational and storage demands hinder widespread deployment. Existing accelerated paradigms often aggressively prune primitives for rapid convergence, causing severe loss of high-frequency…

Alignment from human feedback uses human judgments about model outputs to steer the behavior of language models after pretraining. When those judgments reflect conflicting views of desirable behavior, the learned objective becomes an aggregate determination of what the model…
