Pre-training data poisoning of large language models is usually studied using targeted backdoors and their survival through safety post-training, which leaves open a more basic question: how does a model's clean data performance degrade as the poison rate $\varepsilon$ grows?…

Motivated by blind denoising in diffusion models, we study estimation of an unknown Gaussian noise level from a single high-dimensional observation, assuming the signal law P is known. We characterize the minimax mean-squared error under two structural assumptions on P.

Linear bandits model sequential decision-making problems with noisy rewards that are linear in the decision variable, where an agent must simultaneously learn about an unknown parameter that governs the mean rewards, while maximizing (expected) rewards over time.

Generative AI is reshaping the cultural infrastructures through which knowledge is found, synthesized, and held accountable. To make sense of this shift, scholars and policymakers reach for historical analogies of technologies such as the printing press, steam power or…

Evaluating claim admission in shared agent memory is challenging because repeated claims may be mistaken for independent evidence. An agent may copy or paraphrase a retrieved belief, while admitting a false claim exposes subsequent agents to it.

Large language models (LLMs) are increasingly integrated into educational settings, yet educators lack robust, standards-aligned tools to evaluate their effectiveness in K-12 science contexts.

Speech content representations are central to voice conversion, speech-to-speech translation, and multimodal language models, yet they are rarely compared under a common generative framework that directly measures what each representation contains.

The flatness of the loss landscape at a minimizer is a widely used heuristic for reasoning about neural-network generalization, yet evidence for this relation is mostly empirical and controversial.

Neural representational dissimilarity quantifies differences between neural response distributions, and is essential for comparing neural codes across stimuli, brain areas, tasks, and models.

As Large Language Models (LLMs) become integrated into software development workflows, concerns regarding unintentional biases in AI-generated code. Although evidence suggests these biases exist, limited research has systematically identified, categorized, and explained them.

Cloud-based Large language model (LLM) services create a network-level traffic side channel that can expose model, prompt, and task behavior despite encryption. From packet sizes, directions, timing, and burst structure alone, a passive local observer can infer the serving…

Pooled statistics of Transformer weights obscure how magnitude is distributed across functional channels, while individual weights are too numerous to compare directly. We study the mesoscopic level between them: row and column scale fields, the median-centred log-RMS profiles…

The Model Context Protocol (MCP) provides a common interface through which AI applications discover and use external resources and tools. It allows language-model agents to ground their reasoning in current system state and interact with heterogeneous services.

Developing label-efficient models is a central challenge in surgical AI due to the high cost and scarcity of expert annotation. While self-supervised foundation models adapt well to new tasks with minimal data, how label efficiency varies across different surgical tasks remains…

Ageing bridge infrastructure is a growing global concern, yet conventional Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) systems are costly and difficult to scale, and routine visual inspections remain subjective.

Everyday Extended Reality (XR) systems aim to provide context-aware access to the right functionalities at the right time and place, with minimal manual reconfiguration as users switch context.

Significant research effort has been directed in recent years towards establishing both asymptotic and non-asymptotic convergence guarantees for two-timescale actor--critic algorithms, where the actor recursion is run on a slower timescale than the critic recursion.

Many iterative algorithms rely on bootstrapping. A variable is updated using a second, frozen copy as a target, which is periodically replaced with the updated variable.

On-demand delivery platforms pay riders through incentive activities whose tiers are set from recent completions of riders with a similar history. Operators request such plans for changing periods, rider populations, payment rules and budgets, often for holidays or bad weather,…

Large language model (LLM)-based clinical assistants are increasingly being integrated into electronic health record (EHR) systems, transforming how clinicians retrieve and synthesize information from patient records.

Automatic speaking assessment systems can provide holistic proficiency scores, but often lack interpretable measures that characterize pronunciation quality. We propose a native-reference phone-class geometry for measuring second language (L2) pronunciation deviation without…

We prove nearly quadratic lower bounds for randomized algorithms for linear optimization and uniform sampling over convex bodies in the membership oracle model. For linear optimization, this matches the known nearly quadratic upper bound up to a polylog factor in the dimension.

Choosing Shellsort gaps is a well-known open problem. For over sixty years, successful sequences have relied on human-designed formulas, numerical searches, or number-theoretic constructions.

This paper investigates the joint optimization of the transmit precoder and the transmission/reflection coefficients of a simultaneously transmitting and reflecting reconfigurable intelligent surface (STAR-RIS) to maximize the weighted sum rate (WSR) in a multi-user downlink.
