Indirect Optimal Control for Constructing Libraries of Periodic Trajectories: Application to Bipedal Walking

Maximilian Raff, Kathrin Flaßkamp, C. David Remy

原文摘要

Trajectory optimization is a fundamental tool for generating efficient, dynamically consistent periodic motions, commonly referred to as gaits, in legged locomotion. This paper explores the indirect method of periodic trajectory optimization, emphasizing its application in creating optimal gaits for legged systems and contrasting it with the more common direct method. While the direct method offers implementation flexibility, it is limited by its need for an input space parameterization. In contrast, the indirect method achieves higher accuracy by computing the control input from states and costates along the optimal trajectory. In this work, we tackle the convergence challenges associated with indirect shooting methods by utilizing numerical continuation methods. This is particularly useful for the systematic development of gait libraries. Our contributions include: (1) the formalization of a general periodic trajectory optimization problem that extends existing first-order necessary conditions to a broader range of cost functions and operating conditions; (2) a methodology for efficiently generating optimal gait libraries using single shooting and numerical continuation; (3) a novel approach for reconstructing Lagrange multipliers and costates from passive gaits; (4) a comparative analysis of the indirect and direct shooting methods using a compass-gait walker as a case study, demonstrating the higher accuracy of the indirect method; and (5) demonstrating applicability to the more complex legged robot RABBIT, with ten dynamic states and four inputs. These results establish a systematic indirect optimal control framework for synthesizing families of optimal periodic trajectories in legged locomotion.

Geometry Matters in Packed 3D Attention

Amil Khan, Anantajit Subrahmanya, B. S. Manjunath

原文摘要

Packing a 3D volume into a token sequence is not merely long-sequence modeling. Once the volume is packed, sequence order no longer encodes the geometry of the sample---so a positional mechanism indexed by sequence position can learn the memory layout rather than the object. This is a general failure mode for attention over packed geometric data. We introduce PACK3D, a local-global attention operator that separates memory layout from attention geometry. PACK3D keeps local neighborhood attention exact, compresses only distant context into contiguous 3D block summaries, and indexes every query-key interaction with axial RoPE on true token-grid coordinates rather than packed positions. Because the rotation is applied before a block is summarized, the query-to-summary logit remains a weighted sum of query-relative 3D displacements; compressed global context therefore stays spatially interpretable after packing, instead of collapsing to anonymous pooled content. We measure the failure mode directly. On a controlled synthetic task---train on one packing, change only the memory order of the tokens, hold the physical labeling rule fixed---learned positional embeddings and packed-sequence RoPE solve the training layout perfectly yet collapse under Morton, block-contiguous, and random repacking, while axial grid-coordinate RoPE stays exact throughout. The same coordinate system carries to real data: on Allen WTC-11 hiPSC microscopy, PACK3D improves over a parameter-matched 3D U-Net on the 15-structure joint task and over a matched learned-position local-global baseline, with controls isolating the coordinate system, not encoder capacity, as the source of the gain. A fused Triton implementation matches windowed-attention latency at 65k tokens while supplying the long-range context windowing cannot---so the operator is not only correct but trainable at scale.

dots.tts.edit: Precisely Controlled Speech Editing with a Continuous Autoregressive Model

Hankun Wang, Bohan Li, Shi Lian, Xiaoyu Gu, Jing Peng, Da Zheng, Yiwei Guo, Colin Zhang 等 10 位作者

原文摘要

Speech editing for content creation requires precise control over both what an edit should do and where it should apply. Free-form natural language provides a flexible interface for expressing edit requests, but its ambiguity may leave the intended operation, parameters, or target region underspecified. We study a semi-formal transcript-grounded edit instruction that specifies operation categories and parameters and binds them to transcript spans or boundaries. This semantic timeline avoids explicit timestamp alignment and provides an externally inspectable contract for compositional edits. We instantiate the interface in dots$.$tts$.$edit, a speech editing model built on a continuous autoregressive speech generation architecture. Four representative speech-creation controls cover lexical content, affective expression, pitch and speaking-rate delivery, and temporal phrasing through text, emotion, prosody, and pause editing. Task-specific data pipelines construct operation- and scope-controlled pairs while retaining source-derived context outside each target region. We further introduce doteBench, a bilingual benchmark that measures precise instruction following, local preservation, and audio quality across the four controls and their composition. Experiments show leading overall instruction following and local preservation across its five editing categories, while audio quality remains comparable to existing open-source systems. Across three Seed-TTS-Eval shards, the model shows negligible differences from the base model in zero-shot TTS recognition error rate and speaker similarity.

On the Generalization Gap of Streaming Federated Learning with Markovian Data

Masoud Kavian, Milad Sefidgaran, Youssef Attia El Hili, Malik Tiomoko, Abdellatif Zaidi

原文摘要

Streaming federated learning (SFL) allows clients to train a shared model from continuously arriving data without retaining large local datasets. Such streams often exhibit temporal dependence, yet its effect on generalization remains poorly understood. In this paper we study the expected generalization gap of the aggregated model when client data follow Markov processes, using information-theoretic and rate-distortion techniques. Our framework accommodates heterogeneous Markovian dynamics across clients and distinguishes temporal dependence from information acquired during local learning. We establish bounds under cross-entropy loss, specializing them to Linear Next-Token Prediction (LNTP) and Self-Attention Next-Token Prediction (SANTP). These results quantify the effects of client count, communication rounds, sample size, data dimension, mixing time, and context length. In particular, they reveal a communication--generalization tradeoff: although frequent aggregation may help optimization, it can weaken generalization guarantees. They also suggest a potential advantage of distributed over centralized streaming learning under a fixed total data budget. Temporal dependence enters through the square root of the mixing time. By analyzing the history-state process, we obtain refined bounds with improved context-length dependence under suitable mixing conditions. Experiments on GPT-style language-model pretraining with TinyStories and real-world time-series forecasting illustrate how collaboration and communication frequency influence generalization under temporal dependence

Deogen: Automatic Benchmark Generation for Reasoning over Policies

Sam Kouteili, William Liang, Keeran Murray, Adriana Zhou, Ramesh Viswanathan, Scott Shapiro, Ruzica Piskac

原文摘要

Language models are increasingly being deployed in regulated settings, where a model must apply given rules to the facts of a situation to determine a verdict. Benchmarking this capability, known as deontic reasoning, remains a costly and manual process, with existing datasets largely hand-crafted. In this paper, we present DeoGen, a scalable, automatic, and parametrizable benchmark generator for deontic reasoning. By autoformalizing policy rules to first-order logic, we can construct decision trees that capture possible outcome trajectories. Each path down a tree becomes a benchmark entry, with each tree producing combinatorially many entries relative to tree depth. Paths ending at a leaf entail a verdict, while non-leaf paths measure a model's ability to abstain when presented with insufficient information. Evaluations show frontier models return the correct verdict 89-92% of the time. Notably, performance degrades (22-40% correct) on entries without sufficient information to claim a verdict, even with explicit instructions to abstain in such cases. In all, DeoGen presents an automatic, scalable, and parametric method for generating deontic reasoning benchmarks.

Quantum-Inspired Pairwise Ranking Aggregation via Active LLM Feedback

Quan Mai, Susan Gauch, Gibson Nkhata

原文摘要

Ranking aggregation from multiple retrievers is a powerful yet under-explored technique in modern retrieval and RAG systems. We introduce LLM-IRA, the first extension of the quantum-inspired interactive ranking aggregation framework to document reranking. By leveraging large language models (LLMs) solely for pairwise judgments on high-disagreement document pairs, our method learns fusion weights in a principled, interactive way. The final ranking is a simple, ultra-fast pointwise linear fusion of scores, no full pairwise matrix or expensive listwise prompting is required. Experiments on the BEIR benchmark and TREC Deep Learning tracks with an open-weight instruction-tuned judge (Llama-3.1-8B-Instruct) show that LLM-IRA matches or numerically exceeds strong static fusion baselines on 5 of 6 evaluated benchmarks. We report two weight-update variants: momentum blending and a full accumulated-history refit, which together reach statistical significance (Wilcoxon signed-rank, p<0.05) over the best unsupervised aggregator on 4 of 6 benchmarks (DL19 under momentum; DL20, DBpedia, and NFCorpus under accumulated refit, which is the stronger of the two configurations overall). On the benchmarks we profiled (DL19, DL20), it already clears the best unsupervised baseline within as few as 5 LLM calls per query, well before exhausting its typical ~25--30 call budget. LLM-IRA also achieves cost-effectiveness comparable to state-of-the-art zero-shot LLM rerankers at an order of magnitude fewer LLM calls, and requires no training data or model fine-tuning.

Weaken to Strengthen: Weakening-Induced On-Policy Self-Distillation for Large Reasoning Models

Yecheng Wu, Song Han, Han Cai

原文摘要

Self-distillation offers a way to improve reasoning models when a suitable external teacher is unavailable. However, common approaches rely on privileged information to construct a stronger self-teacher, limiting their use when only unlabeled prompts are available. In this paper, we introduce Weakening-Induced On-Policy Self-Distillation (WISD), which instead constructs a weaker counterpart of the original model and uses the contrast between the two as a training signal without requiring privileged information. We explore two ways to construct the weaker model: low-bit quantization and magnitude pruning. We evaluate WISD across diverse architectures and scales on mathematical and coding reasoning tasks. Across these benchmarks, quantization and pruning improve average accuracy over the original models by 4.0 and 5.5 percentage points, respectively, achieving state-of-the-art performance even without privileged information. Notably, pruning raises Qwen3.5-4B's accuracy from 57.7% to 70.5% on HMMT 2025 and from 39.1% to 56.7% on LiveCodeBench v6. Quantization raises Qwen3.6-35B-A3B's accuracy from 68.5% to 74.6% and from 61.8% to 69.5% on the same benchmarks, respectively. These results establish WISD as a novel and effective self-distillation framework for large reasoning models.

AskStream: When and What to Ask Proactively under Uncertainty in Streaming Video Understanding

Lu Wang, Zhuoran Jin, Longxiang Wang, Junhong Chen, Yupu Hao, Yao Xu, Daojian Zeng, Yubo Chen 等 11 位作者

原文摘要

Recent advances in multimodal large language models have increased interest in interaction paradigms for video understanding. The evolution from offline to streaming and proactive interaction has gradually shifted models from passive responders toward more proactive agents that can decide when to answer. However, existing proactive paradigms typically assume that the information required to answer a query is complete, leaving models to only wait or answer. In the real world, however, information is often incomplete due to uncertainty from either the video or the user. In proactive paradigms, such uncertainty can cause the model to wait forever or generate highly hallucinatory responses. We therefore argue that proactive interaction should be redefined with a third action: ask, allowing models to actively ask for missing information. To study when and what models should ask before answering, we introduce AskStream, the first multi-turn benchmark spanning video and user uncertainty for streaming video understanding, with four task categories and eight subtasks. It contains 438 videos with 2,714 manually annotated frame-level time windows across three types: wait, ask, and answer. Across both multiple-choice and open-ended settings, even the strongest model attains only 52.18% on our proposed Ask-F1 metric, highlighting substantial limitations in proactive information seeking under uncertainty.

ExplainCC: Explaining Correlated Clusters by Node Labels

Nadeesha Shyami Kumari Herath Mudiyanselage, Florian Adriaens, Nikolaj Tatti

原文摘要

An increasingly important requirement for clustering algorithms is that decisions and outcomes need to be clearly understandable for human users. We address this requirement for the Correlation Clustering (CC) problem, in case the objects to be clustered are accompanied by labels. In CC one seeks to partition a set of objects into clusters based on pairwise similarity and dissimilarity information. Our proposed model only considers clusters that can be explained by a label tree, which is essentially a decision tree that partitions the objects according to labels. The goal is to find an explainable partition of the data that minimizes the CC objective function. We formalize this problem from a theoretical viewpoint, and prove several hardness of approximation results, also when constraining the size of the tree. Our proposed greedy method finds locally optimal splits, and works recursively in a top-down approach. To efficiently compute the best split, we carefully maintain certain counters. An experimental evaluation demonstrates its effectiveness. The proposed algorithm processes graphs with over million edges in a few minutes, can find the ground truth in synthetic data, and is able to produce interpretable clusters in real world networks.

Learning response-aware patient dynamics for respiratory support

Xiaolei Lu, Shamim Nemati

原文摘要

Respiratory support can shape the short-term physiological trajectory of critically ill patients, but patients receiving the same intervention may follow different physiological trajectories. Clinical patient dynamics models typically predict future states from recent physiology and recorded interventions, while physiological change is mainly represented through the predicted future state. We propose a response-aware patient dynamics model that explicitly represents physiological change during autoregressive state updating. The model decomposes predicted physiological change into state-dependent baseline dynamics and respiratory-support-associated deviations, with room air providing a reference for the decomposition. We provide a formal analysis of this reference-anchored formulation. A response pathway encodes the predicted physiological change and uses it to update the latent patient state across the forecast horizon. Across ICU cohorts from two independent institutions, the proposed model achieves comparable overall trajectory prediction to patient dynamics baselines, with more consistent improvements when physiological states are changing.

Quantize by Doing: Task-Guided Mixed-Precision Quantization of Vision-Language-Action Models

Jiuyi Xu, Xiao Hu, Meida Chen, Song Wang, Yang Ye, Yangming Shi

原文摘要

Post-training quantization (PTQ) reduces the memory footprint of vision-language-action (VLA) models, but lowering bit widths while maintaining task performance remains challenging. Existing work has used sensitivity estimates from calibration data to assign bit widths to different model components. However, using task success directly to guide mixed-precision allocation is underexplored because closed-loop evaluations are costly and the effect of quantizing one component depends on the precision of other components. To this end, we propose \textbf{QbD-VLA}, a task-guided mixed-precision quantization method that uses task success from short closed-loop evaluations to assign weight and activation bit widths while accounting for interactions between model components. Experiments covering four VLA models and all four LIBERO suites show strong task performance at average precisions of approximately 4 bits for weights and fewer than 6 bits for activations. On SIMPLER, the gain over uniform quantization is small. On a Franka Research 3 robot arm, simulation-selected allocations show no detected success-rate loss on X-VLA but fail on $π_{0.5}$. These findings support using task success to guide mixed-precision VLA quantization, while highlighting the need for real-world evaluation before deployment. Code is available at \href{https://github.com/jiuyixu25/QbD-VLA}{\texttt{github.com/jiuyixu25/QbD-VLA}}.

REGER: Modeling inter-item Relations with Semantic IDs for Generative Recommendation

Yuxi Huang, Silin Zhou, Chenhao Wang, Zihan Li, Gangming Guo, Pei Ke, Shen Gao, Shuo Shang

原文摘要

Personalized recommendation depends on learning semantic and collaborative relations among items from online content and user interactions. Generative recommendation (GR) offers a promising paradigm by autoregressively generating discrete semantic IDs (SIDs) of items. However, randomly initialized SID token embeddings and GR models trained from scratch do not directly inherit the semantic relations inherent in items, while inter-item collaborative relations are learned largely implicitly through token-level attention and next-token supervision. To address this limitation, we propose REGER, a unified framework that explicitly incorporates inter-item relations into semantic pretraining, history encoding, and SID generation. We pretrain the GR model through generative semantic retrieval, enabling it to inherit inter-item semantic similarity by learning to generate semantic neighbors' SIDs. We combine global attention with local attention aligned with SID boundaries to capture historical context and directed transitions between adjacent items. We further develop a theoretical framework for hierarchical preference decomposition over the SID prefix tree, proving an exact factorization of collaborative preference distributions and a weighted decomposition of item-level KL divergence into prefix-conditional KL divergences. Building on this analysis, we distill a discriminative teacher's full conditional distributions over all legal next tokens at ground-truth prefixes along the target SID path, jointly optimizing this objective with cross-entropy. Extensive experiments on real-world datasets demonstrate consistent improvements over existing GR baselines and support the effectiveness of the proposed preference distillation.

Safe and Fuel-Efficient Motion Planning for Lunar Propulsive Drones

Elena Wittemyer, Grace Gao

原文摘要

Propulsive drones are a promising new technology for generating high-resolution terrain models of the Moon. In future lunar missions, propulsive drones will complete a series of hops across the lunar surface while capturing images with downward-facing cameras. We present an autonomous motion planning framework that uses a vision-guided optimal control strategy for performing safe, efficient hops between specified waypoints. The drone plans parabolic hops between waypoints generated by a global-level planner; if a nominal waypoint is unsafe or unreachable, the drone then completes a diversion maneuver to safely land. To evaluate the validity of potential landing sites, we develop a custom semantic segmentation model for identifying obstacles from aerial images, and we introduce an approach for rapidly calculating reachable terrain. We then use model predictive control (MPC) to robustly track hop trajectories that guide the drone towards safe landing sites. We test the optimal hop planner in a high-fidelity lunar simulation environment. Our results demonstrate that our unified motion planning framework yields safe, fuel-efficient hop trajectories which can be tracked rapidly and with low error via MPC.

POD-RoPE: Rotary Position Encoding over Physical Observation Distributions for Embodied AI

Xiaodi Huang, Zilin Wang, Jinpeng Liu, Pengchuan Xiao, Zhenlei Shao, Zhang Zhang

原文摘要

Embodied perception requires positional representations that capture both physical geometry and the spatial and temporal extent of observations. We introduce POD-RoPE (Physical Observation Distribution RoPE), which represents token observation footprints as distributions over camera centers, viewing directions, and sampling times. Under independent sampling, expected rotations encode relative relationships between distributions; when each distribution collapses to a single address, the construction recovers pointwise RoPE. The same rotation statistics support Q/K matching and coherence-dependent V/O transformations, allowing observation geometry to guide both information selection and content aggregation. Per-token pre-aggregation avoids increasing sequence length or processing pairs of observation nodes. We evaluate POD-RoPE across four robot policy architectures, simulation and real-world manipulation, and complementary reconstruction, depth-estimation, and novel-view-synthesis tasks. Integrating POD-RoPE into Fast-WAM improves mean success from 91.83% to 92.88% across all 50 RoboTwin 2.0 tasks, and from 32.5% to 52.5% on two real-robot tasks on Sharpa North. Controlled reconstruction ablations support the contributions of distribution encoding and V/O transformations. In H20 model-block benchmarks, POD-RoPE achieves median forward-plus-backward speedups of $1.91\times$ over P-RoPE and $5.34\times$ over RayRoPE, with a median latency overhead of 17.4% over Standard RoPE. These results support physical observation distributions as an effective and computationally efficient basis for geometry-aware attention.

Explore Where It Matters: Targeted Exploration for Efficient Rover Adaptation

Jacob Levy, Arthur Bouton, Tristan D. Hassler, Hari Nayar, David Fridovich-Keil

原文摘要

Future planetary rovers will traverse steep, deformable terrain where slip, sinkage, and terrain deformation can threaten mobility. Although simulation can capture some wheel-soil effects, unmodeled deformable-terrain phenomena create sim-to-real gaps requiring deployment-time adaptation. Yet, rover operations leave little room for extensive trial-and-error. We introduce TERRA (Targeted Exploration for Reward-Relevant Adaptation), an online adaptation framework that efficiently seeks deployment data exposing task-relevant model errors and corrects them. TERRA adapts a simulation-trained world model with a reward-weighted prediction loss and trains a loss predictor to estimate where future performance-relevant errors are likely to occur, using this signal to guide exploration during MPC. In simulation, TERRA reaches approximately 90% slope-climbing success within five trials under severe out-of-distribution pretraining conditions, outperforming exploration baselines in reward, completion time, and energy to first success. On the ERNEST rover, TERRA recovers coordinated active-suspension locomotion on a deformable Mars-simulant slope within three to five real-world trials.

Learning unified control of intrinsic nonlinear spin dynamics in atomic qudits for magnetometry

C. Z. Cao, J. Z. Han, M. Xiong, M. Deng, L. Wang, Q. Liu, X. Lv, M. Xue

原文摘要

Generating and preserving metrologically useful quantum states is a central challenge in quantum-enhanced metrology. In low-field atomic magnetometry with multilevel atoms, the nonlinear Zeeman (NLZ) effect is both a resource and a limitation. It can generate internal spin squeezing within a single atomic qudit, but under fixed readout it also rotates and distorts the measurement-relevant quadrature, limiting the usable metrological gain. The problem is further complicated by the time dependence of both the squeezing axis and the nonlinear evolution itself. Here we show that reinforcement learning can transform NLZ dynamics from a source of readout degradation into a sustained metrological resource. Using only experimentally accessible low-order spin moments, a trained agent identifies a unified control policy for this class of intrinsically nonlinear sensing dynamics. We illustrate the approach in the \(f=21/2\) manifold of \(^{161}\mathrm{Dy}\), where the learned policy rapidly prepares strongly squeezed internal states and stabilizes more than \(4\,\mathrm{dB}\) of fixed-axis spin squeezing under continuous NLZ evolution. Including state-preparation overhead, the learned protocol yields a single-atom magnetic-field sensitivity of \(13.9\,\mathrm{pT}/\sqrt{\mathrm{Hz}}\), approximately \(3\,\mathrm{dB}\) beyond the standard quantum limit. Our results establish learning-based control as an experimentally feasible route for converting unavoidable intrinsic nonlinear dynamics in multilevel atomic sensors into operational metrological advantage.

Eliciting ESG Preferences for Reinforcement Learning-Based Portfolio Optimization

Giovanni Dispoto, Marcello Restelli, Carmine Ventre

原文摘要

Modern portfolio management increasingly demands a balance between traditional risk-adjusted returns and strict Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) mandates. Current Reinforcement Learning (RL) approaches typically optimize for a single ESG provider, neglecting the significant divergence in rating methodologies across the industry and the unintuitive nature of manually weighting conflicting objectives. This paper addresses these limitations by formulating ESG-aware portfolio optimization as a Multi-Objective Reinforcement Learning (MORL) problem that simultaneously incorporates ratings from three distinct ESG agencies. To bridge the gap between high-dimensional algorithmic trade-offs and human decision-making, we integrate a Preference Elicitation framework using Gaussian Processes. This system enables practitioners to align the RL policy behavior with their preferences through intuitive pairwise comparisons of candidate portfolios based on their Sharpe ratios and aggregate ESG scores. We systematically evaluate our framework by employing prompt-conditioned LLMs as synthetic preference oracles under varied regional conditions and assess how the methodology adapts to heterogeneous investment behaviors and sustainability preferences. The experiments demonstrate feasibility in a controlled synthetic setting and characterize sensitivity to oracle and prompt design.

Information-Theoretic Reliability--Safety Bounds and Finite-Alignment Dynamics in AI Knowledge Distillation

Miao-Miao Yi, Zhen-Yu Cai, Y -M. Du, C. P. Sun

原文摘要

The reliability and safety of artificial intelligence (AI), together with their transfer and evolution through knowledge distillation, have attracted growing attention. We establish an information-theoretic bound on the reliability--safety trade-off and characterize the dynamics of this trade-off under knowledge distillation. We first prove a universal trade-off inequality that is independent of the specific model form. Its boundary is determined solely by a single parameter Kh, which quantifies the hidden layer's ability to distinguish benign from hazardous inputs. We then develop a canonical Boltzmann-machine model of AI response behavior and derive two exact relations between reliability and safety. The trade-off curve is determined by the hazard discrimination capacity K, while the overall answer tendency controls the operating point along the curve. These relations agree well with existing experimental data. In knowledge distillation, we find that teacher responses induce a renormalization of the student model's trade-off parameters. We further use a renormalization-group approach to study multigenerational distillation, deriving exact recursion relations and the associated renormalization-group-like flows for two representative direct intergenerational distillation protocols at arbitrary teacher--student alignment strength. These flows reveal fixed-point structures, long-term dynamics, and critical behavior, yielding testable predictions for the critical transition between capability loss and stable transmission.

Train at Moving Edge: Online-Verified Prompt Selection for Efficient RL Training of Large Reasoning Model

Jiahao Wu, Ning Lu, Shengcai Liu, Kun Wang, Yanting Yang, Baijiong Lin, Chen Jason Zhang, Li Qing 等 9 位作者

原文摘要

Reinforcement learning (RL) has become essential for post-training large language models (LLMs) in reasoning tasks. While scaling rollouts can stabilize training and enhance performance, the computational overhead is a critical issue. In algorithms like GRPO, multiple rollouts per prompt incur prohibitive costs, as a large portion of prompts provide negligible gradients and are thus of low utility. To address this problem, we investigate how to select high-utility prompts before the rollout phase. Our experimental analysis reveals that sample utility is non-uniform and evolving: the strongest learning signals concentrate at the ``learning edge", the intersection of intermediate difficulty and high uncertainty, which shifts as training proceeds. Motivated by this, we propose HIVE (History-Informed and online-VErified prompt selection), a dual-stage framework for data-efficient RL. HIVE utilizes historical reward trajectories for coarse selection and employs prompt entropy as a real-time proxy to prune instances with stale utility. By evaluating HIVE across multiple math reasoning benchmarks and models, we show that HIVE yields significant rollout efficiency without compromising performance.

Logical Guidance of Stochastic Interpolants

Gerrit Gerhartz, Francesco Alesiani, Jonathan Warrell, Henrik Christiansen, Matheus Ferraz, Mathias Niepert

原文摘要

Guidance and composition of generative models have applications in visual design, chemistry, and biology. Logical guidance composes conditional scores exactly for diffusion models. However, Flow Matching (FM) and Stochastic Interpolants (SI) learn velocity fields. We show that negation and exclusive disjunction admit exact conditional velocity composition on any interpolant, whereas conjunction, and therefore any formula containing one, is exact on Gaussian paths but in general incurs a drift-interaction error, so composed velocities need not sample the logical target. LOGSI solves this by using score-based re-equilibration as our principled mechanism and falling back to the Gaussian-path velocity rule as an approximate transport predictor. In non-Gaussian bridge problems, generation alternates transport steps with score re-equilibration steps. On image trans fer (EMNIST to CMNIST, CelebA) and QM9 source-to-target molecular editing with logical attribute constraints, LOGSI improves rule conformity at the same network-evaluation budget over composed-velocity baselines, while also improving fidelity on the image tasks. More broadly, LOGSI applies wherever stochastic interpolants need guidance and logical combinations of constraints are natural.

When AI performs, what remains? An integrative review of generative AI and cognitive capital in individuals and organizations

Giuseppe Riva, Stefania La Rocca, Brenda K. Wiederhold, Andrea Gaggioli

原文摘要

Generative artificial intelligence is rapidly entering knowledge work, and its short-term productivity benefits are increasingly documented. Less is known about what happens, over time, to the knowledge, skills and judgment that remain in people and organizations. This integrative narrative review addresses that question through the construct of cognitive capital: the accumulated, renewable and depletable stock of knowledge, cognitive and metacognitive capabilities, and practices that enables an individual or an organization to learn, interpret information, exercise judgment, solve problems and adapt. We distinguish individual and organizational cognitive capital from the capability of the human-AI system, so that gains in joint performance and losses in human capability can be observed at the same time. Drawing on experimental, field and conceptual work, we propose four mechanisms through which interaction with AI affects cognitive capital: substitution of practice, scaffolding and feedback, metacognitive calibration, and organizational aggregation. Seven principles summarize the current evidence, including that assisted performance differs from retained competence, that the same technology can support or displace learning depending on design and use, and that individual gains can coexist with reduced collective diversity. For each mechanism we derive testable propositions, and we discuss five design levers for organizations as proposals to be validated rather than established practice. We conclude that cognitive capital offers a multilevel frame for governing AI adoption and outline a research agenda centered on longitudinal, multilevel measurement.

CFKS: Continuum-Feature Kernel PDE Solvers

Vikas Dwivedi, Balaji Srinivasan, Monica Sigovan, Bruno Sixou

原文摘要

Neural-network-based PDE solvers require architectural choices, particularly the number of layers and neurons per layer. Fixing a single Gaussian radial basis function (RBF) feature layer and taking the number of features to the continuum limit removes the need to prescribe a finite feature count or select individual feature centers, thereby reducing representation arbitrariness. Motivated by this principle, we introduce Continuum-Feature Kernel Solver (CFKS), a deterministic framework for PDEs obtained by analytically marginalizing a bounded continuum of Gaussian RBF features. CFKS works directly with the resulting continuum-feature mean kernel and its operator-applied counterparts, parameterized by prescribed Gaussian widths and bounded center distributions. For linear PDEs, CFKS leads to symmetric operator-kernel collocation systems with null-space enforcement of physical constraints. Nonlinear PDEs are addressed through linearized initialization and nonlinear least-squares residual minimization using analytical kernel derivatives and Jacobians. Residual-guided collocation enrichment and sequential space--time-slab marching provide additional resolution strategies, while prescribed multiscale kernel refinement helps resolve localized nonlinear structures. Finite-feature experiments confirm convergence of empirical value and operator Gram matrices toward their continuum counterparts. Numerical studies include oscillatory and multiscale ODEs, irregular-domain Poisson and biharmonic problems, singular perturbations, transient transport equations, and viscous Burgers' equation. The results establish CFKS as a direct computational connection between finite Gaussian-RBF representations and continuum-feature kernel PDE solvers.

Enhanced image forensics through partial C2PA-based provenance information

Riccardo Ziglio, Eleonora Marchesini, Andrea Montibeller, Giulia Boato, Silvio Ranise, Cecilia Pasquini

原文摘要

Cryptographically verifiable C2PA-based Content Credentials (CCs) can be attached to freshly acquired or generated digital images but also to already existing ones with no previous provenance information, for instance after processing through trusted C2PA-enabled software tools. The latter case leads to images with so-called partial CCs, which capture only the last operations applied, while prior provenance remains unknown and can be investigated through signal forensics. This paper addresses the forensic analysis of such images, highlighting the opportunity to leverage the partial CCs as additional trusted knowledge to adapt forensic detectors towards the statistical characteristics of the image under analysis and mitigate potential distribution shifts. To this end, a two-step strategy is envisioned: (i) reconstructing the operations applied by the last signer through a structural analysis of the partial CCs; (ii) exploiting the obtained reconstruction to enhance the forensic detector of the analyst through an adaptation process. An empirical analysis on partial CCs produced by commercial C2PA-enabled software tools through different editing operations is carried out, providing evidence on the feasibility of the reconstruction in practical cases. An experimental case study on the forensic task of synthetic image detection is then presented, showing that the proposed strategy can significantly enhance the performance of state-of-the-art detectors on test images that are postprocessed via C2PA-enabled software tools after being generated/acquired.

On-Policy Self-Distillation with Teacher Evolution

Shufan Shen, Zhongni Hou, Chao Bi, Yufei Zhang, Guojun Yin, Shuhui Wang

原文摘要

On-Policy Self-Distillation (OPSD), which aligns a student model's token-level distribution with that of its self-teacher prompted by privileged context, has emerged as a promising direction to mitigate reward sparsity in sequence-level post-training paradigms. However, OPSD often fails to achieve continuous performance gains during training. In this paper, we find that the model's limited self-teaching capability underlies this phenomenon by generating unreliable guidance on certain samples. To address this problem, we propose Teacher-Evolution Self-Distillation (TESD), which enables the self-teacher to generate rollouts and receive environmental feedback based on task correctness and context independence. First, using these rewards as training objectives, we perform teacher-oriented optimization to continuously enhance the model's self-teaching capability during distillation. Second, by estimating teacher guidance reliability from these rewards, we apply adaptive student-oriented optimization to down-weight samples with unreliable guidance. Extensive experiments across multiple datasets and model scales show that TESD consistently outperforms representative token-level and sequence-level methods, highlighting the necessity of improving supervision quality in OPSD.

Curriculum-Based Deep Reinforcement Learning for Robust Autonomous Rocket Landing under Atmospheric Uncertainty

Atin Chowdhury, Piyush Joshi

原文摘要

Autonomous far-range rocket landing is a challenging control problem because navigation, descent-rate regulation, attitude management, and fuel use must be coordinated in the presence of uncertain atmospheric and vehicle dynamics. This paper presents a curriculum-driven proximal policy optimization (PPO) framework for three-dimensional rocket landing in a stochastic environment incorporating altitude-dependent aerodynamic drag, wind shear, temporally correlated turbulence, discrete gusts, uncertain propulsion and aerodynamic parameters, thrust-vector misalignment, engine lag, actuator-gain variation, noisy observations, and command latency. Learning is organised into far-range approach, soft descent, and integrated landing stages. Policy transfer, critic warm-up after reward changes, rehearsal of earlier tasks, and progressive expansion of weather severity are used to support learning across these coupled phases. Across 100,000 evaluation episodes, the policy achieves 96,656 successful landings, corresponding to a success rate of 96.656\% and a 95\% Wilson confidence interval of 96.543--96.766\%. Success decreases from 98.84\% under zero-disturbance conditions to 88.07\% in the highest weather-severity band. Successful touchdowns exhibit small miss distances and low residual horizontal and vertical velocities. An exploratory logistic-regression analysis identifies mean wind speed as the strongest measured correlate of success, with initial distance, initial altitude, initial vertical velocity, and wind-shear exponent also associated with outcomes. The results quantify both the effectiveness of the learned policy over the evaluated disturbance distribution and the degradation that occurs under severe compound atmospheric conditions.

Interpretable Synthetic Medical Tabular Data Generation for Clinical Decision Support Using Fuzzy Cognitive Maps

Michael Vasilakakis, Dimitris K. Iakovidis

原文摘要

Synthetic medical tabular data generation has become essential for developing and validating computer-based medical systems (CBMSs) when real clinical data is restricted due to privacy, ethical, or data availability limitations. Existing probabilistic and deep generative models often lack interpretability and fail to preserve clinically meaningful dependencies, limiting their suitability for safety-critical applications. This paper proposes a novel application of Fuzzy Cognitive Maps (FCMs) in a framework for synthetic medical tabular data generation with explicit causality and privacy preservation. Clinical features are described using linguistically interpretable fuzzy sets, and inter-feature dependencies are encoded as FCM edge weights computed from fuzzy set intersections. Synthetic patient records are generated by propagating randomly initialized linguistic activation vectors through the FCM until convergence, followed by defuzzification to produce clinically coherent numerical values. The approach natively handles mixed data types, and domain constraints common in health records. Experimental evaluation on UCI medical benchmark datasets demonstrates competitive performance under a Train-on-Synthetic-Test-on-Real (TSTR) protocol. The proposed method achieves accuracy of up to 0.81 and AUROC of up to 0.90 on the Heart Disease dataset, matching or exceeding TVAE and Gaussian Copula baselines while running exclusively on CPU. Fidelity metrics including KS Complement (up to 0.91) and Correlation Similarity (up to 0.95) confirm strong statistical coherence, and DCR Baseline Protection scores consistently exceed those of TVAE, confirming adequate privacy guarantees. These results demonstrate that causally grounded, interpretable fuzzy modeling offers a computationally efficient and transparent alternative to deep generative models for trustworthy synthetic data generation in CBMSs.

"Close enough?" An investigation into multiplication errors in LLMs

William Bolton, Bezawit Tilaye, Huw Day

原文摘要

Large language models (LLMs) frequently fail at multi-digit arithmetic, but the underlying mechanisms governing these failures remain poorly understood. While recent work demonstrates that addition errors follow a "noisy quantisation" model localised around carry boundaries, whether this framework generalises to multiplication remains an open question. In this work, we evaluate multiplication capabilities across several small base LLMs on a dataset of 16,991 problems spanning varied operand lengths. We show that multiplication errors do not conform to the addition-style noisy quantisation model. Instead, we uncover a novel error regime in small Qwen models: errors in lower-order columns predominantly preserve parity. Conversely, higher-order digit errors shift toward off-by-one carry failures. Our findings suggest that arithmetic computation in LLMs relies on distinct, multi-periodic internal representations where parity is tracked more robustly than exact digit identity, providing new mechanistic insights into numerical reasoning in transformers.

Right Numbers, Wrong Questions: Evaluating LLMs on Underspecified Financial Queries

Radha Yadav, Prasanna Devadiga, Peeyush Mishra, Apoorv Singh

原文摘要

Financial assistants answer questions that sound factual but depend on what the user leaves unsaid: what a data figure measures, which product variant is meant, and the investor's situation and the rules that apply. An assistant that ignores these can still answer with a real number from its data, one that answers a different question. We call this frame collapse. We study it in Indian mutual funds, where product variants and tax rules are formally defined, so the correct answer can be computed for every reading. One study tests each challenge. Given an ambiguously labelled figure, models used it, often under the user's label. Given every alternative labelled, they listed them all, but the layout decided which came first. Missing a fact about the investor, weaker agents assumed a default or an outdated tax rule; requiring the fact did not guarantee its use. Because such answers match their data, checks against the data pass them. An AI judge caught mislabelled figures only when told what each field means, and still passed answers that silently chose another reading. We show how these failures arise, not how often, and propose controls for financial assistants.

The Reality Gap in Automated Driving Systems Testing: Landscape, Challenges, and Research Directions

Stefano Carlo Lambertenghi, Oliver Weissl, Johannes Betz, Andrea Stocco

原文摘要

Simulation is essential for testing automated driving systems (ADS), but discrepancies between simulation and reality can undermine testing conclusions. It remains unclear which discrepancies the literature addresses and what evidence supports correspondence claims. We present a systematic mapping of 235 primary studies that measure or mitigate the reality gap in ADS testing, selected from 4,195 publications. We characterise objectives, targets, approaches, experimental setups, and evaluation evidence. Our classification distinguishes simulated and real-world execution across six ADS test components, separately for each approach and its evaluation reference. This distinguishes real-world information used to construct an approach from evidence used to evaluate its claims. Of the included studies, 76% address mitigation, primarily targeting scenario and actor realism and perception, while 94% report validation or measurement procedures. Only 61 studies report metrics from multiple families covering sensor/perception correspondence, ADS behaviour, vehicle dynamics, or safety outcomes; this coverage does not establish causal links between discrepancies and test verdicts. The synthesis highlights that real-world content and physical execution must be interpreted against the claim evaluated. The findings motivate claim-specific evaluation and component-level reporting to establish which discrepancies affect testing conclusions and when simulation evidence supports conclusions about real-world ADS behaviour.

Cross-Primitive Consistency in Jev

Xu Liu, Guikun Chen, Kanzhi Wu, Wenguan Wang

原文摘要

Jev enables efficient decision-making with large language models (LLMs) through typed querying primitives, allowing the same semantic state to be expressed in different formats, such as binary and multiple-choice queries. However, the consistency of decisions across primitives has not been systematically evaluated. This work introduces PrimaCons, a four-axis benchmark for assessing cross-primitive consistency while preserving the semantics of the query. Evaluations across three Jev sizes reveal consistency violations across all four axes. Our analysis shows that these violations follow systematic patterns and that cross-primitive discrepancies predict decision failure with a ROC-AUC of 0.91. To mitigate these inconsistencies, we propose the Cross-Primitive Residual Calibrator (CPRC), which attaches a lightweight residual network to a frozen backbone and jointly optimizes predictive accuracy and cross-primitive consistency. Under a leave-one-domain-out protocol, CPRC reduces cross-primitive inconsistency by 58.57% and improves accuracy by +2.97%., demonstrating its effectiveness in both in-domain and out-of-domain settings. Our findings establish cross-primitive consistency as a key dimension for evaluating Jev and provide a practical approach to improving the reliability of its decisions. Code and benchmark is available at https://github.com/67L1/PrimaCons-CRPR.
