ILLRAW: Illumination-Aware RAW Object Detection

Xinzhe Wang, Xiao Liang, Xiaoli Zhang, Kang Ma

原文摘要

Existing RAW-based detectors typically introduce learnable ISP modules to convert RAW inputs into sRGB-like formats to fit off-the-shelf detectors. However, this RAW-to-sRGB paradigm decouples representation learning from the downstream detection task. Crucially, it forces the network to inherit human-centric visual priors while discarding intrinsic RAW advantages, such as linear sensor responses and high-bit-depth, minimally processed scene cues. In this paper, we propose \textbf{ILLRAW}, an \textbf{ILL}umination-aware end-to-end \textbf{RAW} object detection framework. Instead of reconstructing visually plausible sRGB images, ILLRAW directly learns detection-oriented RAW features through a lightweight feature adapter inserted at the input stage of existing detectors. ILLRAW estimates an illumination mask and introduces channel-sensitive embeddings to model Bayer-channel responses. These features are fused by an illumination attention fusion module. Experiments show clear improvements on the diverse AODRaw benchmark and competitive performance on LOD and PascalRAW, with particularly strong results under dark exposure.

MS-DOTT: A Multi-Modal Dataset for Off-Road Traversability Estimation

Shivani Subramanyan, Saksham Sharma, Samahith SA, Ahaan Kotian, Suresh Sundaram

原文摘要

Autonomous robots are gaining traction in off-road environments, driven by their rising demand in agriculture, defense, and search-and-rescue operations. However, these environments are inherently unpredictable and navigation remains a formidable challenge given the complex environmental conditions including challenging terrain and varying illumination. Off-road autonomy requires robust perception across multiple spatial scales and imaging modalities, yet most sensing setups struggle to capture both far-field environmental context and near-field terrain detail simultaneously across various illumination conditions. To facilitate development of robust off-road perception and traversability estimation systems, we propose MS-DOTT (Multi-Sensor Dataset for Off-road Terrain Traversability) a comprehensive multi-modal off-road dataset with long-range 3D sensing and short-range, fine-grained perception to facilitate high-fidelity terrain understanding by combining proprioceptive signals for tracking vehicle dynamics with exteroceptive imaging and pointcloud data. The dataset includes trajectories recorded across nominal lighting, low-light, and no-light conditions with diverse 2D and 3D sensing for both long-range large-scale and short-range high-resolution sensing, as well as 4D RADAR measurements that provide velocity estimates for detected pointclouds. We demonstrate the utility of the dataset by adapting a SOTA multi-sensor fusion method for the purpose of traversability estimation. This dataset will aid the robotics community in advancing research and development of methods for traversability estimation, off-road perception and multi-sensor fusion in unstructured environments.

Self-Supervised Super-Resolution for Sentinel-5P Hyperspectral Images

Hyam Omar Ali, Antoine Crosnier, Romain Abraham, Baptiste Combelles, Fabrice Jégou, Bruno Galerne

原文摘要

Sentinel-5P (S5P) plays a critical role in atmospheric monitoring; however, its spatial resolution limits fine-scale analysis. Existing super-resolution (SR) approaches rely on supervised learning with synthetic low-resolution (LR) data, since true high-resolution (HR) data do not exist, limiting their applicability to real observations. We propose a self-supervised hyperspectral SR framework for S5P that enables training without HR ground truth. The method combines Stein's Unbiased Risk Estimator (SURE) with an equivariant imaging constraint, incorporating the S5P degradation operator and noise statistics derived from signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) metadata. We also introduce depthwise separable convolution U-Net architectures designed for efficiency and spectral fidelity. The framework is evaluated in two settings: (i) LR-HR, where synthetic LR data are used for direct comparison with supervised learning, and (ii) GT-SHR, where super-resolved images surpass the native spatial resolution without HR reference. Results across multiple bands show that self-supervised models achieve performance comparable to supervised methods while maintaining strong consistency. Qualitative analysis shows improved spatial detail over bicubic interpolation, and validation with EMIT data confirms that reconstructed structures are physically meaningful. Code is available at https://github.com/hyamomar/Sentinel-5P-Super-Resolution/tree/main/self_supervised

Finding Errors Is Not Enough: Selective Model Escalation for Entity-Targeted Sentiment Analysis

Nishan Chatterjee, Matthew Purver, Antoine Doucet, Senja Pollak

原文摘要

Improving a sentiment classifier with limited resources involves more than simply deciding how much data to collect or which model to train. A labelled collection may lack examples of an important class. Once trained, a classifier may benefit from another model even when that model is weaker on its own. We study these decisions in document-level Entity-Level Sentiment Analysis (ELSA), primarily using South Slavic news. We first compare acquisition orders as collections grow. We then use uncertainty to choose which predictions to revisit, how many to process, and whether an alternative encoder or local LLM can correct them. Finally, we select complete routing policies on development data for held-out evaluation. Minority-prioritised acquisition helps at some very small training sizes, but not consistently thereafter. On SentiCoref, an oracle correcting all errors in the least-confident 10% without harming correct predictions would add 9.14 Macro-F1 points; however the best evaluated action gains only 0.90. Encoder averaging helps on AspectBench and NewsMTSC but harms SentiCoref, where selective LLM assistance is more promising. Both development-selected policies route 30% of records to the encoder-assisted LLM, yielding observed gains of 1.02 points on SentiCoref (interval includes zero) and 1.71 on NewsMTSC, at substantially different inference costs.

Language Models Can Benefit from Domain-Specific Inductive Biases

Damien Teney, Liangze Jiang, Zachary Shinnick, Hemanth Saratchandran, Simon Lucey

原文摘要

Language models are typically trained with a single choice of architecture on diverse domains and data sources. Modern transformers have been extensively refined for such general-purpose learning, but are they equally effective across different subsets of the pretraining data? We investigate this question by training small language models from scratch on representative subsets of pretraining data such as web text, code, and mathematics. We introduce variants of transformers in which standard activation functions are replaced with learned splines tuned on specific datasets, providing a simple way to modify their inductive biases. Using a mix-and-match of architectures and datasets, we evaluate cross-domain transfer, i.e. how well does an architecture tuned for one domain perform on data from another? We find that the tuned transformer variants improve training efficiency or generalization on all seven of our tested datasets, but the gains are often domain-specific. For example, architectures tuned on a natural language dataset such as FineWeb perform well on TinyStories, whereas those tuned on mathematics perform poorly on natural language. We identify several mechanisms underlying these improvements, including wider loss basins and more abundant "lottery tickets". Our results show that different subsets of pretraining data can benefit from different learning mechanisms, highlighting a limitation of the prevailing trend towards a small set of general-purpose architectures and optimizers. This points to an opportunity to improve data efficiency by developing domain-specific learning strategies that retain the ability to train general-purpose models.

Distilling Literary Sentiment from LLM Annotations into an Ordinal BERT Model

Artem Suslov, Takehiro Hashimoto

原文摘要

The scarcity of human-annotated literary corpora limits the development of domain-specific sentiment analysis models. This study investigates whether LLM-generated annotations can supervise smaller models for literary sentiment analysis. We fine-tune five BERT models using ordinal regression on 10,889 literary sentences annotated by Gemma 4 31B on a ten-point sentiment scale. The models are evaluated against 1,923 human-annotated sentences from Hemingway's "The Old Man and the Sea", alongside the teacher model and conventional baselines. BERT-large achieves a Kendall's $τ$ of 0.589, approaching the teacher's 0.604. Although a constant-neutral predictor achieves the lowest overall mean absolute error (MAE), BERT-base outperforms the teacher on non-neutral sentences, achieving an MAE of 0.726 versus 1.116. These findings demonstrate the potential of LLM-generated supervision for developing smaller literary sentiment models, while highlighting the limitations of aggregate error metrics on predominantly neutral datasets.

Computer vision-based estimation of small arthropod biomass

Mikko Impiö, Philipp M. Rehsen, Jarrett Blair, Cecilie Mielec, Arne J. Beermann, Florian Leese, Toke T. Høye, Jenni Raitoharju

原文摘要

The ability to estimate invertebrate biomass using only images could help scaling up quantitative biodiversity monitoring efforts. Computer vision-based methods have the potential to omit the manual, time-consuming, and destructive process of dry weighing specimens. We present two approaches for dry mass estimation that do not require additional manual effort apart from imaging the specimens: fitting a linear model with novel predictors, automatically calculated by an imaging device, and training a family of end-to-end deep neural networks for the task, using single-view, multi-view, and metadata-aware architectures. We propose using area and sinking speed as predictors. These can be calculated with BIODISCOVER, which is a dual-camera system that captures image sequences of specimens sinking in an ethanol column. For this study, we collected a large dataset of dry mass measurement and image sequence pairs to train and evaluate models. We show that our methods can estimate specimen dry mass even with complex and visually diverse specimen morphologies. Combined with automatic taxonomic classification, our approach achieves a median individual error of 10%-20% and produces group-level dry mass distributions that do not differ significantly from observed distributions. We highlight the importance of choosing appropriate evaluation metrics, and encourage using both percentage errors and absolute errors as metrics, because they measure different properties. We also explore different optimization losses, data augmentation methods, and model architectures for training deep-learning models.

TempoPFN: Synthetic Pre-training of Linear RNNs for Zero-shot Time Series Forecasting

Vladyslav Moroshan, Julien Siems, Arber Zela, Timur Carstensen, Frank Hutter

原文摘要

Foundation models for zero-shot time series forecasting face challenges in efficient long-horizon prediction and reproducibility, with existing synthetic-only approaches underperforming on challenging benchmarks. This paper presents TempoPFN, a univariate time series foundation model based on linear Recurrent Neural Networks (RNNs) pre-trained exclusively on synthetic data. The model uses a GatedDeltaProduct architecture with state-weaving for fully parallelizable training across sequence lengths, eliminating the need for windowing or summarization techniques while maintaining robust temporal state-tracking. Our comprehensive synthetic data pipeline unifies diverse generators, including stochastic differential equations, Gaussian processes, and audio synthesis, with novel augmentations. In zero-shot evaluations on the Gift-Eval, fev-bench and Chronos-ZS benchmarks, TempoPFN achieves top-tier competitive performance, surpassing the majority of models trained on real-world data, while leveraging fully parallelizable training and inference. We open-source our complete data generation pipeline and training code, providing a reproducible foundation for future research.

Foundational Requirements for Artificial General Intelligence: A Falsifiable Framework Based on Signal Prediction

Matej Šprogar

原文摘要

Grounded in the premise that high-level intelligence can emerge from low-level signal processing, we hypothesise a set of requirements necessary for artificial general intelligence. They characterise systems that learn by predicting spatially and temporally structured signals of initially unknown meaning, and draw on principles observed in cognitive neuroscience, from learning from an uninformed state to real-time liveness. To enable empirical testing and rejection of the hypothesis, we introduce a testbed of transparent, reusable tests, one per requirement. Failing a test exposes a violation of a requirement, but passing is not conclusive: a transparent testbed cannot detect systems engineered around its tests, and such systems can pass it without being intelligent. Passing is therefore meaningful only for systems developed without knowledge of the tests, and none has yet been reported. The testbed thus serves as a necessary-condition filter rather than as proof of progress toward general intelligence. Its reference implementation is publicly available.

Utility-Aware Generative Recommendation: Utility-Enriched Semantic Codes and Utility-Guided Decoding

Yang Hu, Duo Wang, Ning Li, Kang Li, Junda She, Chengcheng Guo, Kuo Cai, Bin Liu 等 10 位作者

原文摘要

Generative recommendation has been widely adopted in large-scale industrial recommendation systems, where multimodal item embeddings are quantized into offline semantic identifiers (SIDs) and items are retrieved by autoregressively generating their SIDs. However, conventional SID construction often underrepresents item utility reflected in post-exposure behaviors such as shares, long views, and video completion, making semantically similar items with different utility insufficiently distinguishable while struggling to accommodate rapidly changing utility signals. Moreover, generation likelihood may be misaligned with downstream utility, causing high-utility candidates to be prematurely pruned during beam search before post-generation reranking or training-time reward alignment can effectively compensate. To address these limitations, we propose UAGR, which aligns both SID construction and decoding with downstream multi-objective utility. Our Utility-Enriched Semantic Codes preserve the original semantic information while incorporating item-level utility without increasing SID length or vocabulary size, supporting incremental utility updates with no additional tokenization or sequence-decoding cost. Meanwhile, our Utility-Guided Decoding estimates candidate utility by combining predictions of multiple post-exposure outcomes and incorporates these estimates into beam scoring, reducing the risk of prematurely pruning high-utility paths while enabling flexible utility control without interfering with generative backbone training. Extensive offline experiments and online A/B tests under real-world traffic demonstrate the effectiveness and deployability of UAGR, which has been fully deployed on Kuaishou and increases video watch time by 0.206\% online.

MSP-LLM: A Structured Large Language Model Framework for Inorganic Material Synthesis Planning

Heewoong Noh, Gyoung S. Na, Namkyeong Lee, Chanyoung Park

原文摘要

Material synthesis planning (MSP) remains a fundamental and underexplored bottleneck in AI-driven materials discovery, as it requires not only identifying suitable precursor materials but also designing coherent sequences of synthesis operations to realize a target material. Although several AI-based approaches have been proposed to address isolated subtasks of MSP, a methodology for solving the entire MSP task has yet to be established. We propose MSP-LLM, a structured LLM-based framework that formulates MSP as a two-stage process composed of two constituent subproblems: precursor prediction (PP) and synthesis operation prediction (SOP). Our approach introduces a discrete material class as an intermediate decision variable that organizes both tasks into a chemically consistent decision chain. For SOP, we further incorporate hierarchical precursor types as synthesis-relevant inductive biases and employ precursor constraint factorization that preserves precursor-related information in the autoregressive decoding state. Extensive experiments show that MSP-LLM consistently outperforms existing methods on both PP and SOP, as well as on the MSP task, demonstrating an effective and scalable framework with practical potential for autonomous MSP.

Silent Revision: Measuring Undisclosed Change in the Safety Frameworks of Frontier AI Developers

Louis Yiven Zhu

原文摘要

Frontier AI developers publish safety frameworks that commit them to evidencing whether their models are dangerous. The European Union and California now treat these documents as instruments of accountability and impose duties on their revision. Neither requires the developer's account to identify each change to a commitment. We introduce the silent revision rate, the share of material changes to a framework's commitments that the developer's published account does not identify, and we release the versioned, hash-pinned corpus needed to compute it. The corpus holds every public version of the safety frameworks of the twelve developers that have published one, with each provider's changelog, redline or announcement. We trace 710 commitment instances across twelve consecutive version pairs, code them against a frozen codebook, and check the coding with three independent re-runs, a blind re-coding of every disputed row and a second coding of a stratified sample. First, 64% of material changes (95% CI 59 to 69) are silent under a strict standard and 30% under a lenient one. Second, the form of the account matters less than its granularity. Narrative and itemised accounts differ by eight points that eight pairs cannot separate from chance, whereas the rate falls with the number of discrete items a provider publishes. Third, 75% of traced changes weaken or remove a commitment, and weakenings are silent more often than strengthenings, at 70% against 52%. A justification explains why a framework changed and an enumeration states what changed, and only the latter makes revision auditable. We argue that publication duties should carry an enumeration duty, which one provider already meets, voluntarily and incompletely.

A Kernel Nonconformity Score for Multivariate Conformal Prediction

Louis Meyer, Wenkai Xu

原文摘要

Multivariate conformal prediction requires nonconformity scores that compress residual vectors into scalars while preserving certain implicit geometric structure of the residual distribution. We introduce a Multivariate Kernel Score (MKS) that produces prediction regions that explicitly adapt to this geometry. We show that the proposed score resembles the Gaussian process posterior variance, unifying Bayesian uncertainty quantification with the coverage guarantees of frequentist-type. Moreover, the MKS can be decomposed into an anisotropic Maximum Mean Discrepancy (MMD) that interpolates between kernel density estimation and covariance-weighted distance. We prove finite-sample coverage guarantees and establish convergence rates that depend on the effective rank of the kernel-based covariance operator rather than the ambient dimension, enabling dimension-free adaptation. On regression tasks, the MKS reduces the volume of prediction regions significantly, compared to ellipsoidal baselines while maintaining nominal coverage, with larger gains at higher dimensions and tighter coverage levels.

ReContact: Reconstruct and Retarget Human Contacts from Video for Contact-Rich Humanoid Manipulation

Zhongkai Gu, Yang Liu, Wei Zhu, Mitsuhiro Hayashibe

原文摘要

Contact transitions allow humanoid robots to redistribute object support across the whole body, enabling manipulation beyond hand-only grasps. Human videos provide a scalable source of such transitions for robots to learn from. However, body occlusion disrupts object pose tracking and corrupts retargeted motion. Moreover, accurately reproducing the object trajectory does not ensure that the robot applies stabilizing forces at the intended contacts, risking slips or drops in later phases. To address these challenges, we propose ReContact, which reconstructs and retargets human-object interactions through an object-centric contact plan. The plan specifies contact phases, contact pairs, anchors, pressing directions, and sticking or sliding modes. Contact priors stabilize object pose reconstruction through occlusion. A residual policy over a frozen whole-body tracker is rewarded for making contact at planned anchors with forces aligned to the specified directions. In simulation, on a thigh-supported regrasp task, ReContact achieves the planned two-palm bottom hold in 83.5 of episodes over three training seeds, versus 0.16% for the best adapted baseline. One policy trained on 247 references re-solved for new placements raises in-workspace tube-transfer success from 20.4% (source reference only) to 97.8%. On a real Unitree G1, policies execute seven contact-rich manipulation and two loco-manipulation tasks.

SHq: Learnable Grids for LLM Weight Quantization

Michael Helcig, Earl Killian, Dan Alistarh

原文摘要

Block-scaled lookup-table (LUT) formats, which represent weights as indices into a small value set (the grid), have become standard for low-bit LLM quantization, ranging from NF4 and BOF4 to the 3-bit LUT instruction in NVIDIA Rubin. While these formats leave the grid definition flexible, existing implementations rely on fixed grids derived either from numerical data types (INT, FP) or assumed weight distributions (NF, BOF). We demonstrate that no single fixed grid is universally optimal; the best fixed grid varies with bit-width: BOFS at 2 bits, NF at 4 and 5 bits, and INT at 6 bits. We introduce SHq, a closed-form family of grids parameterized by two critical degrees of freedom: a companding strength α that interpolates level spacing from uniform to floating-point-like, and an offset c that introduces asymmetry. This offset allows the sign bit of the FP8 block scale, otherwise unused, to select between the grid and its mirror image, up to doubling the number of distinct values available per block. SHq modifies only the lookup table contents and serves as a drop-in replacement for the grid in any such format. Across five models ranging from 3B to 35B parameters, including a mixture-of-experts architecture, evaluated at 2-6 bits using RTN and GPTQ, SHq achieves the lowest KL divergence in every setting at 3 and 4 bits and in most settings at 2, 5 and 6 bits. It outperforms the best fixed grid by up to 34% and remains superior under mixed-precision configurations. At 4.5 bits per weight, the SHq format reduces the KL divergence of NVFP4 by 41-67% while improving downstream accuracy. Grid families incorporating both spacing and offset parameters perform comparably, whereas those lacking an offset exhibit clearly higher error, confirming that these two degrees of freedom drive the observed gains. We therefore propose SHq as the standard grid for block-scaled lookup-table formats.

Not Another Text Benchmark: Putting the "Visual" Back in Visual Question Answering for Large Video Models

Rwiddhi Chakraborty, Yinong Oliver Wang, Cheng Zhang, Fan Bai, Zhuoran Yu, Michael Kampffmeyer, Yong Jae Lee, Fernando De la Torre 等 9 位作者

原文摘要

Large video models have exhibited impressive performance on a wide range of visual question answering tasks, owing to the rise of powerful, pretrained text and vision encoders. The usefulness of such models have also been demonstrated on a wide range of benchmarks, with an important caveat - the dominant approach in these benchmarks evaluates multiple choice reasoning via text options. This is a natural way to test text-based reasoning in these models, and has led to significant insights regarding model behavior in the community. In this work, we ask a different question - what happens when the evaluation modality is visual, rather than text? We introduce three new vision-centric evaluation benchmarks in temporal frame retrieval, video future prediction, and causal memory distortion, all designed around evaluating visual understanding capabilities in large video models. Our approach complements the existing approaches to evaluate video understanding in frontier models. We show that current frontier models exhibit significant weakness when attempting to reason through visual queries, rather than text. We conclude with an extended analysis section that provides pointers for future improvements in visual understanding for large video models.

One Image Is Enough: Self-Generated Supervision for Personalizing Human Video Diffusion at Test Time

Sadman Rakib Pinon, Adamo Orsini, Yanis Falaki, Linlian Jiang, Jacob Kingi, Yang Wang, Xinxin Zuo

原文摘要

Pose-driven human video diffusion animates a person from a single reference image and a target pose sequence, yet it struggles to preserve identity, rendering the face and garments unfaithfully as the pose departs from it. Personalization is the standard remedy, but its supervision is missing: one image fixes identity at a single pose, while a multi-pose subject video cannot be assumed in practice. Instead, we synthesize the missing supervision. A domain-tuned, pose-conditioned generator produces pseudo-ground-truth frames at selected key poses. An inference-time reference-only sampler steers these candidates toward the subject and keeps the most identity-consistent. A per-subject low-rank adapter then trains on static clips of them, configured from the reference alone, with no subject video, ground truth, or labels. Although lower in fidelity, these synthetic frames supervise more effectively than real ones. Real frames as captured carry motion that erodes the temporal prior, while a static clip conveys appearance alone. On TikTok and UBC Fashion, the adapted model improves the base on every metric, inverts the identity-versus-motion trade-off, and matches or surpasses adaptation on five real frames despite using none. Code and weights are available at https://github.com/SadmanPinon/one-image-is-enough.

EAvatar: Expression-Aware Head Avatar Reconstruction with Generative Geometry Priors

Shikun Zhang, Cunjian Chen, Yiqun Wang, Yong Li

原文摘要

High-fidelity head avatar reconstruction plays a crucial role in AR/VR, gaming, and multimedia content creation. Recent advances in 3D Gaussian Splatting (3DGS) have demonstrated effectiveness in modeling complex geometry with real-time rendering capability and are now widely used in high-fidelity head avatar reconstruction tasks. However, existing 3DGS-based methods still face significant challenges in capturing fine-grained facial expressions and preserving local texture continuity, especially in highly deformable regions. To mitigate these limitations, we propose a novel 3DGS-based framework termed EAvatar for head reconstruction that is both expression-aware and deformation-aware. Our method introduces a sparse expression control mechanism, where a small number of key Gaussians are used to influence the deformation of their neighboring Gaussians, enabling accurate modeling of local deformations and fine-scale texture transitions. Furthermore, we leverage high-quality 3D priors from pretrained generative models to provide a more reliable facial geometry, offering structural guidance that improves convergence stability and shape accuracy during training. Experimental results demonstrate that our method produces more accurate and visually coherent head reconstructions with improved expression controllability and detail fidelity.

Specification-Aware Predictive Uncertainty Decomposition

Roman Vashurin, Mikhail Seleznyov, Assel Yermekova, Fedor Chernogorskii, Danila Zykov, Elena Tutubalina, Alexander Panchenko, Preslav Nakov 等 10 位作者

原文摘要

Classical decompositions of predictive uncertainty, such as the information-theoretic one, are defined for a fixed representation $x$ of the input object. They do not consider that $x$ may be incomplete, nor do they measure how much the missing information can affect the prediction. In Large Language Models, users can clarify an underspecified input without any retraining. The clarified input can describe the user's unobserved intent $z^*$ more accurately and change the predictive uncertainty about the outcome. In this paper, we formalize this setting probabilistically and derive a three-term decomposition of prediction risk into specification, residual aleatoric, and epistemic uncertainties. We show that at the original information level, when only $x$ is available, the aleatoric uncertainty, represented by a Bayes risk, has two components. The first, which we call specification uncertainty, is the expected reduction in this Bayes risk from revealing the intent. The second is the residual aleatoric uncertainty, i.e., the Bayes risk that remains once the intent is known, averaged over its possible values $z$ given $x$. The distinction is important, as specification uncertainty informs the decision to request clarification before making a prediction. We build approximations of these components and connect them to existing uncertainty measures. Our experiments across different domains and modalities show distinct roles for the three components. Specification uncertainty is the most informative for detecting underspecified inputs, while residual aleatoric uncertainty is the most informative for detecting in-distribution prediction errors.

Generative diffusion in long-range correlated landscapes: Speciation cascade and the foam structure of the score

Jerome Garnier-Brun, Giulio Biroli, Marc Mézard, Jean-Philippe Bouchaud

原文摘要

While state of the art for image and video generation, the fundamental reasons for the effectiveness of generative diffusion remain unclear. In particular, the observed advantage of following an entire reverse process with respect to single-shot or autoregressive methods, and for what type of data it may hold, is not well understood. In this work, we aim to better understand the role of the reverse process by considering a complex yet analytically tractable data model, the Gibbs measure of a high-dimensional Gaussian random potential with long-range correlations. Focusing on the exact score, we show that the speciation threshold, in which a trajectory commits to one class of the data, becomes a speciation window, in which the reverse process progressively resolves the Parisi tree of pure states of the full replica-symmetry breaking measure, committing to ever finer branches down to a single pure state. Importantly, these commitments take place at noise levels where the noisy sample distinguishes the pure states only through an energy of order one, beyond the reach of standard replica saddle points. Constructing a Larkin argument suited to such $O(1)$ energy gaps, we describe the score as a foam, with slab-like cells separated by shock-like boundaries. In the variance-exploding process we consider, this window is followed by a shrinkage of the samples towards the data support, and finally by reconstruction within the selected pure state. The denoising error of the exact score follows these stages, dropping during the speciation window with a profile set by the Parisi function alone, and then within the selected state. We believe that the generative foam we describe, and in particular the boundaries between cells, could play an important role in determining where the errors of trained diffusion models redistribute the mass of the generated samples when the data are long-range correlated.

Counterfactual Route Optimization for Gaussian Head Avatar Modeling

Shikun Zhang, Yong Li, Yiqun Wang, Cunjian Chen

原文摘要

Head avatar modeling requires jointly optimizing multiple objectives with different dominant effects on geometry, appearance, and cross-view consistency. However, their relative effectiveness varies across training states, while existing pipelines typically rely on fixed loss weights or handcrafted stage-wise schedules. A central challenge is therefore to identify which optimization direction is more beneficial at each training state. We propose a counterfactual route optimization framework for Gaussian head avatar modeling, which characterizes state-dependent optimization preference from the realized effects of alternative updates rather than predefined heuristic weighting. Starting from the same training state, we perform short-horizon route-restricted lookahead over geometry, appearance, and joint update routes and evaluate their outcomes under a unified utility. The resulting counterfactual evidence is factorized into a geometry--appearance preference and a residual joint advantage, separately capturing the relative preference between individual update directions and the additional benefit of coordinated optimization. We further amortize this offline evidence into a lightweight controller that directly estimates the current optimization preference and applies bounded modulation to the training objectives during full avatar optimization. Experiments on the NeRSemble dataset validate the effectiveness of the proposed design, consistently outperforming existing methods while preserving clearer local facial structures and finer details.

Enhancing Knowledge Entity Relation Extraction in Abstracts and Full-text Content of Academic Articles Using Large Language Models

Yingyi Zhang, Chengzhi Zhang

原文摘要

This study investigates the effectiveness of large pre-trained language models (LLMs) for knowledge entity relation extraction (KERE) from academic papers. Existing studies have examined individual types of LLM-based strategies and evaluated model performance using metrics such as precision and recall. To provide a broader evaluation, this study investigates multiple strategies, including closed-source LLM-based CoT prompting, LoRA-adapted open-source LLMs, LLM-enhanced small pre-trained language models (SLMs), and SLM-enhanced closed-source LLMs. In addition, this study introduces two strategies, namely SLM-enhanced open-source LLMs and closed-source LLM-enhanced open-source LLMs. These strategies are evaluated from multiple perspectives, including metrics, their ability to mitigate errors observed in SLMs, and potential directions for model optimization. This study manually constructs two annotated datasets in the NLP domain, covering Abstract and Full-Text datasets. Experimental results show that the LoRA-adapted T5 model achieves the highest macro F1 scores of 0.7408 and 0.7013 on the Abstract and Full-Text datasets, respectively. SLMs also benefit from LLM-generated entity descriptions under the LLM-enhanced SLM strategy. Error analysis further reveals that the effectiveness of LLM-based strategies in mitigating SLM errors varies across error types. Based on the identified limitations and error patterns of these strategies, several optimization directions are proposed. In addition, combining strategies with different error patterns further improves KERE performance.

SwarmRSI: Recursive Self-Improvement through Evolving Scientific Agent Swarm

Qianru Meng, Xi Zhang, Konstantinos Papakostas, Congfeng Cao, Wenxiang Hu, Tianyi Lu, Xiao Zhang, Lun Zhou 等 12 位作者

原文摘要

Recursive self-improvement (RSI) in scientific research aims to improve agents' research capabilities through their own experimental experience. Scientific agent swarms can combine evidence and implementations from different research directions to guide their agents' subsequent experiments. However, poor experimental results can leave unclear whether to revise a hypothesis or its implementation, while overall program scores can hide components useful to other agents. To address these challenges, we introduce SwarmRSI, a framework that evolves scientific agent swarms for recursive self-improvement. We devise Feedback-Guided Swarm Mutation to refine hypotheses and their implementations using experimental feedback from other agents. We also propose Complementary Swarm Recombination to reuse retained hypotheses and complementary program components across agents, allowing partial results to support new research. Recursive Swarm Evolution integrates both mechanisms into a feedback loop, using new experimental evidence to guide subsequent research. Experiments on OpenProblems, NatureBench and MLE-Bench Lite demonstrate SwarmRSI's state-of-the-art (SOTA) performance. Further evaluations show that accumulated research experience improves performance on held-out tasks. Biologists also reproduce its programs for follow-up biological analyses.

Honest Small Decision Models for Finance: Scale, Specialization Collapse, and Mixed-Corpus Remediation

Ajitabh Kumar

原文摘要

Financial workflows need fast, calibrated, auditable decisions, not just generated text. We train System-1 decision models, small language models fine-tuned to answer typed questions (choice/score/noul) with a probability in a single forward pass, across two model families (K2-Horizon and Qwen3.5/3.8) and nine rungs from 0.8B to 32B parameters, using one frozen LoRA recipe on a public decision benchmark and two new finance corpora: a programmatic-gold policy corpus (rule-reading with exact labels) and a reality-labeled outcome corpus (19,640 realized forward-return questions in walk-forward splits, plus a sealed 2026 test of 1,360 questions). Narrow fine-tuning costs general decision competence 9-45 percentage points, a data-mixture effect that shrinks with model scale and is associated with narrow-gradient volume. On reality-labeled questions, every trained rung from 0.8B to 32B lands at the horizon-conditioned prior baseline (accuracy 0.37-0.38, no detectable conditional edge under our controls); the models respond with flat, well-calibrated probabilities that track per-horizon base rates: naturally honest uncertainty, with a mid-scale calibration sweet spot (ECE 0.026 at 2B, degrading to 0.043-0.044 at 9-32B under prior drift). A mixed-corpus remediation carries all competencies in one adapter at modest cost: it matches or slightly exceeds the generalist specialist on the public benchmark while holding the policy ceiling and near-specialist outcome calibration, yielding a deployable artifact with per-domain temperature regimes and a band-dispatch escalation analysis: sharp, dispatchable bands where rules determine answers; flat, review-routing bands where reality does not.

Balancing Representations by Identifying and Generating Under-represented Data

Filipe Laitenberger, Hirokatsu Kataoka, Yuki Asano, Cees Snoek, Mohammadreza Salehi

原文摘要

Self-supervised learning inherits the coverage of its source data. When an unlabeled corpus is long-tailed, the representation becomes dense around frequent modes and thin where coverage is weak. Objectives for long-tailed SSL reweight the images already in the corpus and add no new ones. We introduce BRIDGE (Balancing Representations by Identifying and Generating Under-represented Data), a label-free feedback loop around the source set. The current encoder scores every source image by its mean kNN distance, and a budgeted acquisition rule selects images from a band of that score distribution where support is thin and the generator still produces faithful variants. A frozen image-to-image diffusion model then adds local variants of the selected anchors, and pretraining continues on the enlarged source set. We formulate acquisition as recoverability-weighted allocation of local support and derive when a finite budget should favor a sparse band that excludes the extreme tail and when reallocation after each repair is optimal under a fixed objective. Across five long-tailed, web-scraped and synthetic source regimes, BRIDGE has the highest seven-task linear-probe and kNN average of the compared methods, and paired experiments extend the gain to ViT-S under contrastive and self-distillation objectives, to low-label fine-tuning and to semantic segmentation. The linear-probe gain is smaller under masked reconstruction. Generated repair matches an oracle that restores the withheld real images, and under a frozen encoder the inserted images shrink the neighborhoods of the selected anchors about twice as much as those of matched unselected images. BRIDGE needs no labels and leaves the pretraining objective unchanged, so it can be added to pretraining on uncurated web data, where the encoder decides which images to generate.

Fresco++: Frequency-Guided and Canonical-Consistent Optimization for Fine-Grained Head Avatar Modeling

Shikun Zhang, Yong Li, Yiqun Wang, Cunjian Chen

原文摘要

We propose Fresco++, a unified optimization framework for fine-grained and view-consistent head avatar reconstruction. Head avatar optimization is typically driven by per-view image supervision, which can lead to premature fitting of unstable high-frequency details and inconsistent local appearance across viewpoints. Fresco++ addresses these challenges by regulating both the progression of visual detail and the formation of cross-view supervision during optimization. For frequency-aware optimization, a progressive curriculum first stabilizes low-frequency structures and then introduces high-frequency constraints to recover fine facial and hair details without amplifying spurious responses at early stages. For cross-view optimization, we introduce Canonical Group Consensus, which associates local observations through shared canonical surface regions and establishes correspondence across different viewpoints. Geometric and visibility-aware screening removes unreliable observations, while the remaining multi-view evidence is aggregated in feature space to form a consensus target for supervising the current rendering. This design enforces local consistency without relying on a specific image-space parameterization and avoids additional rendering of the auxiliary view. Together, the frequency curriculum and canonical consensus provide stable optimization from coarse structures to fine details while maintaining coherent appearance across viewpoints. Extensive experiments on NeRSemble demonstrate improved reconstruction quality and cross-view consistency, while evaluations across diverse avatar representations further confirm the generality and transferability of Fresco++.

Action Verification through Conjecture and Refutation for Language Model Agents

Minhyeon Oh, Chiyeong Heo, Geonwoo Noh, Hoyoung Kim, Jangwon Son, Jungseul Ok

原文摘要

Language model agents increasingly act on users' behalf by manipulating external environments through tools, often from high-level instructions that leave critical task- and environment-specific context unstated. To prevent resulting misaligned actions, recent work verifies proposed actions before execution, largely by establishing whether the conditions supporting them hold. We argue that this confirmation-oriented view leaves a fundamental blind spot: a wrong action often passes every check that asks whether it is right. This motivates a different question for verification: rather than asking what evidence supports an action, can the agent find evidence that refutes it? We pursue this direction with BlackSwan, a refutation-oriented, expect-suspect-test procedure that predicts the intended effect of each state-mutating action, formulates specific and empirically testable hypotheses for how it could be wrong, and tests them using existing observations or additional non-mutating actions, executing the action only if none survives testing. On challenging AppWorld tasks, BlackSwan improves success rate over the strongest baseline by 14.9 and 25.2%p with and without the backbone model's thinking mode, respectively. Even without thinking or in-context demonstrations, it outperforms stronger baselines equipped with them. The gains also transfer beyond AppWorld, with BlackSwan improving WebShop performance by 12.7%p. More broadly, our results suggest that language model agents have an underused capacity to recognize and self-correct misaligned actions, which can be systematically elicited through active conjecture and refutation before execution.

Specification-Guided Generation for Large Language Models

Alessandro Previti, Konstantinos Vandikas, Mario Alviano, Mats Carlsson, Albin Larsson Forsberg, Alexandros Nikou, Athanasios Karapantelakis, Aneta Vulgarakis Feljan

原文摘要

Large language models (LLMs) can generate structured outputs, but existing constrained-decoding methods mainly enforce syntax and cannot directly enforce satisfaction of a formal specification. We introduce a neuro-symbolic, specification-guided decoding framework that combines LLM generation with symbolic reasoning. At each step, the framework refines the decoding grammar by filtering out values that cannot be extended to an output satisfying the specification. We present a forward-only variant that guarantees specification satisfaction by construction, and a backtracking variant that revises earlier feasible choices when their downstream consequences leave only values that the LLM itself judges unsuitable. The framework is model-agnostic, requires no retraining, and builds on existing grammar-constrained decoding mechanisms. Experiments on configuration and constraint-solving benchmarks show that the forward-only variant reliably produces specification-compliant outputs while reducing repeated LLM inference compared with rejection sampling and incurring modest symbolic-reasoning overhead. The backtracking variant further reduces cases in which the model is forced to select values that it has itself judged unsuitable, thereby substantially improving adherence to the LLM's stated interpretation of the prompt.

Solver-Aware Decompositions for Programming-by-Example: When Dividing Requires Knowing How to Conquer

Janis Zenkner, Tobias Sesterhenn, Tim Grams, Christian Bartelt

原文摘要

Decomposition-based Programming-by-Example splits a task into subtasks: a decomposer predicts intermediate subgoals, and a learned synthesizer generates a program for each subgoal. Execution-decomposition approaches train the decomposer to imitate ground-truth (GT) subgoals and thereby treat decomposition quality as a property of the task alone. A learned synthesizer, however, has its own inductive biases, and GT subgoals reflect how the annotator factorized the task, not what this synthesizer can solve. A decomposer that imitates them can therefore propose subgoals that are logically valid but intractable for the synthesizer. Motivated by this observation, we propose Solver-Aware Decompositions (SAD), which keeps supervised training on GT subgoals as a structural scaffold and additionally trains the decomposer online with self-critical policy gradients against a frozen synthesizer. Each sampled subgoal is rewarded with the negative cross-entropy of the synthesizer on the target program, a continuous signal of how difficult the subtask is for this synthesizer. Our experiments show an accuracy paradox: with the synthesizer fixed, a GT-supervised decomposer agrees more often with the GT subgoals, yet its subgoals lead to lower synthesis accuracy, although the synthesizer was trained on the same GT data. On two list-processing domains, SAD improves synthesis and task accuracy over the GT-supervised decomposer, both in-distribution and under length generalization; the same holds under zero-shot transfer to an external benchmark and for a fine-tuned language model. Even an oracle that receives the GT subgoals at inference time, with the same synthesizer and search, fails on tasks that SAD solves, and fewer than 2% of SAD's solutions to these tasks match the GT program. Decomposition quality is therefore not a property of the task: it depends on the synthesizer that executes the subgoals.

Positive Safety Margins from Artificial Potential Field Reward Augmentation for Size-Robust Obstacle Avoidance under Partial Observability

Ziyi Hao

原文摘要

Collision-free reaching is central to manipulation, yet real cells often leave the size and exact position of an obstacle unobserved, which excludes reinforcement learning controllers that take obstacle geometry as input. A reward limited to a collision penalty does not depend on the clearance outside the obstacle, so under a step cost its learned policy skims the obstacle surface and fails once the obstacle radius exceeds its training value. We investigate whether a single analytic reward term can induce a safety margin without exposing the obstacle to the policy. We augment the reward of a simulated Franka Emika Panda reaching task with a horizontal artificial potential field that penalizes proximity within a safety margin around each of two pillars (fixed nominal layout, random drift). Under hidden observation, policies trained with this term maintain a safe success rate above 88% across a radius sweep from 0.03 m to 0.055 m (30 seeds), while policies without it fall below 10% at the maximum tested radius; the term induces a minimum clearance of 47.9 mm against 9.6 mm without it and eliminates training collisions at least eight times earlier (median steps). The advantage is statistically significant at all out-of-distribution radii and holds across three reinforcement learning solvers and under full observation. Its safe success rate is comparable to that of a classical potential-field planner given the pillar positions. The margin is a fixed buffer rather than an adaptation to the radius, and it lengthens the path by about 19%.
