How Learning Selects Equilibria and When It Leads to Collusion

Hanzhang Wang, Manxi Wu

原文摘要

We study how learning algorithm design shapes equilibrium selection in infinite-horizon discounted Markov games with finite states and actions. Each episode, players choose smooth best responses to beliefs about opponents' policies, test them using noisy observations, and resample rejected beliefs or explore at rates determined by increasing transformations of their discounted values. We show that stochastically stable states induce approximate stationary Nash equilibria maximizing the minimum transformed discounted value across players, with transformations governing which players selection favors. In repeated games with bounded recall of noisy public signals, longer recall weakly increases the selected minimum transformed value. In repeated Cournot games, every stochastically stable state induces an approximate public perfect equilibrium whose minimum discounted profit across firms exceeds the Cournot-Nash benchmark. Collusion is therefore inevitable under these conditions and learning dynamics. For symmetric firms, selected profits can approach the monopoly benchmark arbitrarily closely. These results offer a novel equilibrium-selection perspective on algorithmic collusion.

zkDuel: Characterizing SumCheck Prover Kernels across GPU Programming Models

Samarth Narang, Alhad Daftardar, Brandon Reagen

原文摘要

SumCheck is a central prover primitive in zero-knowledge proofs, exposing table-parallel work that maps naturally to GPUs but becomes increasingly arithmetic-intensive as finite fields widen. We study how this shift affects the cost of programming SumCheck in Triton rather than CUDA. Our benchmark, zkDuel, provides matched implementations of 25 zkPHIRE-derived constraints alongside diagnostic polynomials, covering 32-, 64-, 128-, and 256-bit prime fields, with independent CPU-reference validation and cross-backend checksum gating. Of 800 configurations attempted on an NVIDIA H100, 758 complete with matching checksums. CUDA's median advantage over Triton falls from 3.5x at 32 bits to 1.4x at 256 bits, and Triton is faster on 19 large-table configurations; the same convergence appears on an A100, where the gap falls from 4.4x to 1.6x. Profiling shows that the small-field gap largely reflects host launch overhead and redundant modular additions in Triton's original block reduction, whose relative costs diminish as multi-limb Montgomery work grows. Replacing that reduction with tl.reduce brings Triton's median kernel time within 8% of CUDA on both GPUs, while specialized point interpolation improves 256-bit evaluation kernels by 1.55-1.75x. At cryptographic widths, these results show that a Python-embedded DSL can approach CUDA performance, although the largest fully unrolled constraints still expose compiler-scalability limits.

Deep Learning Volumetric Segmentation for Prediction of Cavity Geometry in Underground Jet Boring Mining

Giovanni Zingaro, Yuan Wang, Deepak Meena, Peter Cheng, Russell Buchanan, John Quilty, Robert Gracie

原文摘要

The Jet Boring System (JBS) is a proprietary technology developed by Cameco Corporation to extract high-grade uranium ore at the Cigar Lake Mine in Northern Saskatchewan, Canada. The JBS remotely excavates ore using a high-pressure water jet that cuts cavities within an artificially frozen ore body. This study outlines a Deep Learning (DL)-based workflow that formulates the cavity prediction problem as a volumetric binary semantic segmentation task. A preprocessing pipeline assembles drilling and jetting records, cavity scans, and a mine-wide geology block model onto a common voxel grid, where each voxel in the prediction is labelled as consumed or non-consumed during jetting. A three-dimensional U-Net with a backfill residual branch is trained on historical field cavities. The model is benchmarked against a baseline consisting of a cylindrical cavity centered along the pilot hole, with a diameter defined by domain experts. The proposed workflow achieves an IoU of 0.601 $\pm$ 0.088 and an F$_1$-Score of 0.747 $\pm$ 0.077 on a held-out test set, improving on the cylindrical baseline currently used in cavity planning by 22.4% and 14.7%, respectively. An eXplainable Artificial Intelligence (XAI) feature attribution approach is applied to identify the most influential input driving the predicted cavity geometry. The accuracy of the proposed model demonstrates its potential to support mine planning.

Spiking Neural Networks Are Harder to Steal: A Benchmark Study of Model Stealing Attacks

Ayana Moshruba, Maryam Parsa

原文摘要

Machine learning models deployed behind query interfaces expose more than their predictions, because an adversary can use those predictions to rebuild the model itself. Model stealing attacks (MSAs) exploit this exposure by training a surrogate model that replicates the decision behavior of a target through black-box queries alone, without access to its parameters or training data. These attacks are well characterized for conventional artificial neural networks (ANNs), yet spiking neural networks (SNNs) process information in a fundamentally different way. SNNs communicate through sparse, discrete spikes, and their outputs depend on membrane potentials that evolve over time rather than on a static mapping from input to output. This temporal mode of computation suggests that the decision behavior of an SNN may be harder to reconstruct from its responses. This work tests that possibility by benchmarking four representative MSAs, namely the Papernot, Tramèr, T-RND, and color perturbation attacks, against SNNs and their ANN counterparts on MNIST, Fashion-MNIST, and CIFAR-10. Across every attack and dataset, SNNs prove consistently more difficult to steal. Surrogates of SNNs achieve 10% to 20% lower agreement with the target model and 15% to 25% lower adversarial transferability than surrogates of ANNs. We attribute this resistance to the way SNNs compute, as their spike-based and time-dependent dynamics yield decision boundaries that ANN-based surrogates struggle to approximate, even under large query budgets. These findings extend the known resilience of SNNs beyond attacks on training data to the replication of model functionality, strengthening the case for neuromorphic architectures in security-sensitive applications.

Detecting and Mitigating Query-Based System Prompt Leakage Attacks

Tushar Nayan, Pratik Poudel, Qian Lou, Yuede Ji, Jason Liu, Ruimin Sun

原文摘要

Large Language Models (LLMs) rely on proprietary system prompts to enforce task directives, safety policies, and access controls. These prompts are vulnerable to query-based leakage attacks, where black-box adversaries extract confidential instructions through adaptive, multi-turn interactions. Existing defenses often assess queries independently, missing malicious behavior that emerges across interactions. We present AdvGuard, a model-agnostic framework for detecting and mitigating system prompt leakage. AdvGuard models cross-query relationships using a bounded semantic interaction graph, statistically filters candidate components, and converts them into line graphs for graph convolutional network (GCN) classification. This approach captures multi-hop patterns in query similarity that distinguish coordinated extraction from benign workflows. A lightweight prompt-level detector provides protection before sufficient interaction history accumulates, and the framework supports black-box LLM deployments. In mixed-query evaluations, AdvGuard improves recall by up to 36% over the strongest baseline while maintaining a false positive rate of at most 3.4%. In multi-turn workloads, it achieves 97.23%-99.1% F1 with 100% recall. Leave-one-attack-family-out tests yield 99.98% mean recall and 99.99% mean F1, with no observed false positives. Integrated into the adaptive PLeak and LeakAgent attack loops, AdvGuard limits exact-match leakage to 0.00-0.01 and substring-match leakage to 0.01-0.09 across evaluated victim models. These results demonstrate robust detection of unseen attack families and substantially reduced prompt reconstruction.

Learning to Control: The iUzawa-Net for Nonsmooth Optimal Control of Linear PDEs

Yongcun Song, Xiaoming Yuan, Hangrui Yue, Tianyou Zeng

原文摘要

We propose an optimization-informed deep neural network approach, named iUzawa-Net, aiming for the first solver that enables real-time solutions for a class of nonsmooth optimal control problems of linear partial differential equations (PDEs). The iUzawa-Net unrolls an inexact Uzawa method for saddle point problems, replacing classical preconditioners and PDE solvers with specifically designed learnable neural networks. We prove universal approximation properties and establish the asymptotic $\varepsilon$-optimality for the iUzawa-Net, and validate its promising numerical efficiency through nonsmooth elliptic and parabolic optimal control problems. Our techniques offer a versatile framework for designing and analyzing various optimization-informed deep learning approaches to optimal control and other PDE-constrained optimization problems. The proposed learning-to-control approach synergizes model-based optimization algorithms and data-driven deep learning techniques, inheriting the merits of both methodologies.

Dr. Post-Training: A Data Regularization Perspective on LLM Post-Training

Pingbang Hu, Xueshen Liu, Z. Morley Mao, Jiaqi W. Ma

原文摘要

Data selection methods address a critical challenge in LLM post-training: effectively leveraging scarce, high-fidelity target data alongside abundant but imperfectly aligned general training data. In this work, we move beyond the data-selection framing and introduce Dr. Post-Training (Data-Regularized Post-Training), a novel framework that reconceptualizes general training data as a data-induced regularizer that prevents overfitting to the scarce target objective, rather than serving as a pool for selection. Specifically, our framework proposes that, at each training step, we construct a feasible set of model update directions using the general training data, and project the model update direction specified by the scarce target data onto that feasible set. Standard training and existing data selection methods arise as special cases with different choices of the data-induced regularizer, and these methods correspond to different points on a bias-variance spectrum with different regularization strengths. Building on this view, we propose a family of methods offering a richer design space and more flexible bias-variance tradeoffs. For practical LLM-scale use, we introduce careful system optimizations that realize these methods with minimal overhead. Extensive experiments across SFT, RLHF, and RLVR show that our methods outperform standard training and state-of-the-art data selection baselines, with the largest gains where the general and target data are most misaligned, and system benchmarks confirm their efficiency.

NN-OpInf: an operator inference approach using structure-preserving composable neural networks

Eric Parish, Anthony Gruber, Patrick Blonigan, Irina Tezaur

原文摘要

We propose neural network operator inference (NN-OpInf): a structure-preserving, composable, and minimally restrictive operator inference framework for the non-intrusive reduced-order modeling of dynamical systems. The approach learns latent dynamics from snapshot data, enforcing local operator structure such as skew-symmetry, (semi-)positive definiteness, and gradient preservation, while also reflecting complex dynamics by supporting additive compositions of heterogeneous operators. We present practical training strategies and analyze computational costs relative to linear and quadratic polynomial OpInf (P-OpInf). Numerical experiments across several nonlinear and parametric problems demonstrate improved accuracy, stability, and robustness over P-OpInf and prior NN-ROM formulations, particularly when the dynamics are not well represented by polynomial models. These results suggest that NN-OpInf can serve as an effective drop-in replacement for P-OpInf when the dynamics to be modeled contain non-polynomial nonlinearities, offering potential gains in accuracy and out-of-distribution performance at the expense of higher training computational costs and a more difficult, non-convex learning problem.

Compatibility and future-proof testing for multi-agent systems

Yueshan Li, Lorenzo Fiaschi, Andrea Censi, Emilio Frazzoli

原文摘要

Independently developed autonomous agents, such as autonomous vehicles, must guarantee joint compatibility, such as safety and task-completion requirements, when they operate in a shared environment. Existing methods require a centrally designed specification, or interaction mechanism before any agent is deployed. However, such centralized design is unrealistic when agent designs are confidential to their developers, and it is not flexible enough to accommodate future agent designs. We study a bi-level structure in which a regulator coordinates developers by publishing seed agents, and each developer independently tests its agent to ensure that it is compatible with every seed-compatible agent, a property we call future-proofness. Under this structure, joint compatibility is guaranteed for any agents that are designed and tested independently, without any coordination with each other. In this work, we first formulate compatibility for general multi-agent systems and show why it is not trivially implied by seed-compatibility. We then characterize the future-proof agents as the closure of the seed and show that this closure is monotone in the seed. Finally, we study a class of executable tests that involve interaction with the seed alone, and we ask to what extent such tests can distinguish the future-proof agents.

BUSTA: Teaching Small Language Models to Reason About Binary Execution

Ritika Poddar, Aidan Fennelly, Deirdre Murphy, Eric Wolos, Corre L. Steele, Michael Doyle

原文摘要

Large Language Models (LLM) are increasingly applied to Reverse Engineering (RE) workflows. RE, however, differs from common LLM coding tasks as it requires models to reason about low-level program behavior. Furthermore, the deployment of tooling in resource-constrained sandboxed RE environments limits the ability to use frontier-scale solutions. We examine whether a targeted LLM training approach can transfer distinct RE skills to open models via inverse basic-block execution: given an x86-64 basic block and a desired output register state, the model predicts the input register values that produce it. Fine-tuning \texttt{Qwen3-1.7B} and \texttt{Nemotron-3-Nano} with Group Relative Policy Optimization (GRPO) raises knowable-register prediction accuracy from 73.2\% to 85.3\% and from 63.3\% to 95.2\%, respectively. Frontier models still score highest (up to 99.2\%), but our fine-tuned \texttt{Nemotron-3-Nano} comes within four points at a fraction of the parameter count. We release both fine-tuned models and the training dataset.

A Smart Instant Book Filter Model based on Dual-Objective Optimization

Yi Hou, Li Fan, Huizhong Duan

原文摘要

Hospitality service in online marketplaces has become increasingly popular over the past few years, not only because it helps people easily rent short-term lodging but also because it empowers travelers to connect with locals and feel belonging. A typical pattern of these industries is a central platform mediating the economic interactions between guests and hosts, where a successful booking experience is the key to user satisfaction. However, one of the biggest challenges is the possible delay of response and chance of rejection when guests try to book a request-to-book listing. Previously, we enabled the instant book feature to allow hosts to instantly accept qualified guests and guests to confirm bookings immediately. Yet the symptom has not been alleviated given mixed request-to-book and instant book listing supply in search results. One possible solution is to promote all instant book listings in search results; however, booking rate will be damaged due to some improperly promoted low quality listings. In this paper, we present a novel smart instant book filter system that applies the instant book filter intelligently and shifts request-to-book to instant book without hurting booking rate. Compared with traditional two-sided markets research that targets finding strategies to maximize a single overall social welfare goal, our proposed system aims to maximize the instant book rate with the constraint that booking rate should not decrease, forming a dual-objective optimization problem. We show A/B testing results for our system exposed to global users, demonstrating that our model performs better than previous human-expert-tuned models in terms of both instant book rate and overall booking rate. We also achieved improved metrics such as the host instant book adoption rate. The proposed system has been deployed to production and is serving millions of users every day.

ASPEN: Adaptive Semantic Reasoning via Command Persistence Prediction for Efficient Navigation VLAs

Vieri N. Akustia, Bin Hu

原文摘要

Navigation vision-language-action (VLA) policies repeatedly invoke costly semantic reasoning even when the next command remains unchanged. Command reuse can reduce computation but risks missing instruction-dependent turns or stops. We introduce ASPEN, an event-triggered scheduler based on command persistence prediction: estimating whether the frozen base policy would reissue its previous command. A lightweight multimodal predictor combines temporal observations, language instructions, execution history, and cached VLA confidence. At eligible command boundaries, sufficient predicted persistence permits command reuse. Otherwise, ASPEN triggers fresh semantic reasoning from the VLA. Evaluated with frozen NaVILA on cross-dataset RxR-CE val-unseen, ASPEN reduces VLA calls by 9.5% and estimated inference time by 8.1%, including scheduling overhead. It maintains comparable navigation performance and preserves identical baseline action sequences on 92.1% of episodes.

From Grasps to Dexterity: Large-Scale Grasp Pretraining for Dexterous Manipulation

Ying Yuan, Xinyu Liu, Sriram Krishna, David Held

原文摘要

Large-scale dexterous grasp datasets encode rich priors over hand-object interaction, but their use has largely been confined to grasp generation and pick-and-place manipulation. We study whether such data can instead support functional dexterity in articulated tool use, where a robot must acquire a tool, maintain contact, and operate its functional moving parts. We adapt a hierarchical imitation learning framework that combines high-level hand sub-goal prediction with a low-level goal-conditioned controller. We construct a 355k-trajectory grasp-pretraining dataset from large-scale dexterous grasp annotations and use it to pretrain the low-level controller. The controller is then fine-tuned on downstream task demonstrations. To evaluate this setting, we introduce DexCraft, a simulation benchmark with six articulated tool-use tasks requiring coordinated finger motion. Across simulation and real-world experiments, our approach outperforms end-to-end diffusion policy baselines and hierarchical policies trained from scratch. In the real world, it improves full-task success by 33.3 percentage points over DP3. These results show that grasp datasets can serve not only as resources for grasp synthesis, but also as scalable pretraining data for contact-rich dexterous manipulation.

Demodalising Gödel's God? Ultrafilters, Rigidity and Modal Collapse Revisited

Christoph Benzmüller

原文摘要

Gödel's ontological argument is modal by design. Possibility and necessity are among its central concerns, and connected interpretation decisions -- extensions or intensions for the positive properties, constant or varying quantifier domains, the choice of modal logic, etc. -- subtly shape the argument and, in particular, whether the modal collapse is implied or not. It is tempting to abstract the modality away and to read the positive properties as merely forming an ultrafilter -- which, however, may replace Gödel's argument with a perhaps more manageable alternative that may have little to do with Gödel's original intention. In this spirit, Odifreddi and Gomes argue that modal collapse is an intrinsic structural feature of any theory that characterises positive properties as an ultrafilter and identifies God as its principal generator. This comment shows that the structural claim is false. There is an explicit S5 model, with constant domains, in which positivity is at every world a modal ultrafilter principally generated by a unique and necessarily existing Godlike individual, and in which the modal collapse nevertheless fails -- already for an atomic formula. What drives the collapse is not the ultrafilter structure but the rigidity of positivity -- itself a thoroughly modal condition: given only that positivity is a modal ultrafilter, modal collapse and rigidity are equivalent. Rigidity is thus exactly what the collapse adds to the ultrafilter structure, and the disagreement is whether it is to be counted part of that structure at all. Two further claims of Odifreddi and Gomes are clarified: one on the derivability of Gödel's Theorem IV, one on the extensionality of positivity. All results are machine-checked in Isabelle/HOL, which distinguishes kernel-checked proofs from model-finder output.

Locally invariant manifolds and foliations

Lachlan Ewen MacDonald

原文摘要

Invariant manifolds and foliations associated to invariant pseudo-hyperbolic reference geometries have been well-studied in the context of dynamics implemented by a diffeomorphism. In this paper, we provide sufficient conditions for the existence of maximally smooth, \emph{locally} invariant manifolds and foliations containing a given \emph{locally} invariant, pseudo-hyperbolic reference geometry, in the context of dynamics implemented by a smooth map which need not be invertible. The theory is motivated by applications to the developing theory of large-step optimisation.

Diversity Combining for Multi-Path LLM Reasoning

Guangsheng Yu, Litianyi Zhang, Qin Wang, Xu Wang, Mingyuan Li, Shaoxiong Ji, Ren Ping Liu, Massimo Piccardi

原文摘要

Multi-path reasoning methods such as self-consistency (SC) sample $K$ reasoning paths and choose the most frequent answer. However, their gains quickly plateau as $K$ increases, and locating this saturation point currently requires fitting a scaling model to accuracies measured at several values of $K$ or stopping online per query. We formalize multi-path LLM reasoning as a diversity combining problem from wireless communications: each path is a noisy channel observation, and the pairwise correlation of path correctness caps the design-effect effective sample size of the vote at a finite ceiling. Generalized least squares (GLS) analysis shows that, for paths with equal gains, the optimal linear combiner of latent embeddings is uniform exactly when every row of the path covariance has the same sum, as under exchangeability, supporting majority vote as the natural default in standard SC while leaving room for weighting or pruning under heterogeneous prompt-template branches. Across 5 models and 12 benchmarks, prompt-template diversity reduces path correlation in $55$ of $60$ model-benchmark cells, with a mean relative reduction of $16\%$ and reductions in every task domain. We derive an Adaptive-K rule that uses a four-path pilot to select $K^*$, retaining $96$--$103\%$ of MV@$K{=}32$ accuracy across Math, QA, and NLU.

Privately Clipping Heavy-Tailed Data

Matthew Joseph, Alex Kulesza

原文摘要

Summing vectors is a basic task in differentially private data analysis. Standard private sum algorithms clip vectors to some bound, sum them, and add noise scaled to the bound. The differential privacy literature has developed a deep library of noise addition mechanisms, but it offers few tools for privately choosing a clipping bound based on the data. We introduce a method that privately chooses a clipping bound by optimizing residual coherence, the directional alignment of vectors exceeding the bound, against the variance cost of additional noise. We prove a close relationship between residual coherence and bias for a general class of heavy-tailed data regimes and show empirically that, across several datasets, our method outperforms existing baselines.

EVA-Flow: Learning Shared Chemistry for Unified Environment-Aware Molecular Conformation Generation

Bing Yan, Anuroop Sriram, Zachary Ward Ulissi, Kyunghyun Cho, Ricky T. Q. Chen, Benjamin Kurt Miller

原文摘要

Molecular 3D structures underpin simulations of thermodynamics, kinetics, crystallization, and nucleation, making their accurate prediction central to drug discovery and materials design. However, molecular geometry can change dramatically across environments. Existing models either ignore environmental effects or train separate models for each environment. We hypothesize that transfer learning across contexts is possible for conformer generation and that a general model will perform better when training data are limited, as in ligand binding and crystallization. We introduce EVA-Flow, a unified framework for environment-aware molecular conformation generation that learns shared chemical structure and adapts it through environment-conditioned generative modeling. Across vacuum, protein-ligand docking, solvation, and crystal packing, pretraining and cross-environment finetuning provide their largest gains in the three data-scarce settings. Evaluation against multiple reference conformations shows that EVA-Flow covers a broad range of solvation conformations. Analyses of molecules shared across environments support its ability to generate different conformations for the same molecule in different environments.

Unifying Sparse Estimation of Precision and Covariance Matrices

Aramayis Dallakyan, Mohsen Pourahmadi

原文摘要

Penalized maximum likelihood is a widely used approach to estimate a sparse precision or a sparse covariance matrix. A zero in the precision matrix encodes a conditional independence and a zero in the covariance matrix a marginal independence, and the two estimators have been developed separately, each with its own algorithm. We show that these two problems can be unified via a single reparametrization of the last column of either matrix. This reparametrization decouples the likelihood function for each problem to a one-dimensional minimization followed by a penalized multiple regression. Our approach applies to any penalty that is separable in the off-diagonal entries and linear on the diagonal. When the penalty is the $\ell_1$ norm, it unifies the graphical Lasso and the covariance graphical Lasso algorithms.

Towards Myocardial Infarction Diagnosis: An Investigation into Machine Learning and Deep Learning Algorithms using ECG Data

Rafid Ahnaf, Husne Mubarak, Fahim Ahsan, G. M. Refatul Islam, Rafeed Rahman, Nabuat Zaman Nahim

原文摘要

Myocardial Infarction (MI) is a severe and potentially fatal cardiac condition caused by myocardial injury due to ischemia, and timely detection can substantially reduce its mortality. Electrocardiography (ECG) is the primary diagnostic modality for MI, but manual interpretation is susceptible to human error. In this work, we propose Visionary V2, a multi-step, adaptive filtration method for ECG signal normalization, and use it to study machine learning (ML) and deep learning (DL) approaches to MI detection on the PTB Diagnostic ECG Database using all 15 available leads. On statistical features extracted from the filtered signals, such as the R-R interval, a Bagging ensemble of decision trees reaches 96.6% accuracy, compared with 87.7% when the signals are processed with BioSPPy. We further generate an image dataset from the filtered signals, on which a custom ResNet-50 misclassifies only 1 of 7,000 validation images and a custom CNN reaches an F1 score of about 98.7%. Finally, we apply LIME, Grad-CAM and Integrated Gradients to verify that the image models attend to the ECG waveform rather than the background. These results indicate that careful signal normalization combined with ML and DL models can support fast and accurate automated MI screening.

Machine learning and digital pragmatics: Which word category influences emoji use most?

Mohammed Q. Shormani, Lamia Alhassoun, Yehia A. AlSohbani

原文摘要

This study examines the performance of the state-of-the-art MARBERT model in identifying the lexical/pragmatic category associated with emoji use on X within a digital pragmatics approach (DPA). A net corpus of 15856 Colloquial Arabic (CA) posts containing emojis was collected from X using Python. The texts were tokenized and normalized into 4 lexical categories, namely noun_norm, verb_norm, adj_norm, and adverb_norm, and 2 pragmatic/structural categories, question_norm and exclamation_norm. MARBERT was finetuned and optimized to identify which category scores standard metrics more, hence associated with emoji use, while binary logistic regression was used to examine which category is statistically associated with emoji occurrence. Findings unveil that nouns dominate the corpus in normalized frequency (M = 0.675, SD = 0.161), followed by verbs (M = 0.083, SD = 0.100). However, verbs have the strongest influence of emoji use indicated by verb density (\b{eta} = 0.821, p = .001, 95% CI [0.332, 1.309]). Findings further show that MARBERT performs comparatively well for verbs (precision = .74, recall = .99, F1 = .85) and nouns (precision = .88, recall = .44, F1 = .59), and substantially weaker for the less frequent categories. The study concludes that in digital pragmatics of CA on X, emoji use association with lexical/pragmatic category can be explained by a hybrid approach of computational, statistical, and pragmatic methods, reflecting the interaction among machine learning, linguistic/lexical features, contextual representation, and digital communication.

Same Luck, Different Choice: Twin-World Credit Assignment for Agentic Reinforcement Learning

Zeropy Surio, Tobias Engel, Mei-Lin Chou, Anika Raman, Samuel Okafor

原文摘要

Agentic reinforcement learning rewards a complete episode, yet the policy needs credit for every decision inside it. Counterfactual branching estimates this credit by re-running the episode after an alternative decision, but the branch draws its sampling noise independently of the factual episode, so the outcome difference mixes the effect of the decision with the luck of everything that follows. We observe that in agentic search the retriever, the corpus, and the grader are deterministic, so an episode is a deterministic function of the policy's decisions and its sampling noise. Twin worlds are therefore realizable: the same noise, a different decision. We introduce TWICE (TWIn-world Credit Estimation), which keys the Gumbel noise of every token by turn and line, rolls out counterfactual twins that inherit the factual episode's downstream noise, and turns their paired outcome differences into turn-level advantages for policy-gradient updates on actor-sampled trajectories; only the actor is deployed. Twin credit is unbiased for any coupling quality, its variance is that of an independent counterfactual scaled by $1-ρ$, where $ρ$ is the twins' outcome correlation, and under coupling the number of rollouts needed to resolve an advantage of size $Δ$ falls from $Θ(Δ^{-2})$ to $Θ(Δ^{-1})$. A square-root rule spends the twin budget where outcomes are predicted to disagree per unit cost. On seven question-answering benchmarks, TWICE improves the average exact match of GRPO by 5.3 and 4.5 points on Qwen2.5-3B and 7B, outperforms tree-search and counterfactual-branching baselines, and uses 68% fewer auxiliary tokens than VinePPO.

SPARCL: Spectral Partitioned Analytic Continual Learning

James Hartley, Zeropy Surio, Daniel Whitmore, Hannah Clarke, Thomas Reed

原文摘要

Analytic continual learning has emerged as a strong exemplar-free alternative to gradient-based class-incremental learning because it replaces iterative optimization with closed-form ridge updates. Yet the usual forgetting narrative, centered on stochastic gradient overwriting, does not explain why analytic methods still drift on old classes despite exact recursive solvers. We identify the culprit as spectral interference: the joint ridge classifier for all tasks shares the inverse autocorrelation operator $(R+λI)^{-1}$, so incoming task samples that load onto old dominant eigendirections dilute the spectrum and perturb old-class logits even when old labels are never revisited. Based on this view, we propose SPARCL, a spectral partitioned analytic continual learner that decomposes the running autocorrelation into a high-energy core and a residual complement, freezes old-class classifier components in the core subspace, and updates only the residual block through recursive least squares with an optional residual random-projection expansion. This yields a simple closed-form update with a provable invariance guarantee for the core contribution of old logits. Across CIFAR-100, CUB-200, ImageNet-R, and ImageNet-A under a frozen ViT-B/16 protocol, SPARCL closes most of the gap from classical analytic learners to strong representation matchers, while remaining complementary to sparse feature-decorrelation approaches such as Fly-CL.

Semantic World Models

Jacob Berg, Chuning Zhu, Yanda Bao, Ishan Durugkar, Abhishek Gupta

原文摘要

Planning with world models offers a powerful paradigm for robotic control. Conventional approaches train a model to predict future frames conditioned on current frames and actions, which can then be used for planning. However, the objective of predicting future pixels is often at odds with the actual planning objective; strong pixel reconstruction does not always correlate with good planning decisions. This paper posits that instead of reconstructing future frames as pixels, world models only need to predict task-relevant semantic information about the future. For such prediction the paper poses world modeling as a visual question answering problem about semantic information in future frames. This perspective allows world modeling to be approached with the same tools underlying vision language models. Thus, vision-language models can be trained as "semantic" world models through a supervised finetuning process on image-action-text data, enabling planning for decision-making while inheriting many of the generalization and robustness properties from the pretrained vision-language models. In this paper, we introduce this new method and validate it on simulated robotic tasks leading to improvements over typical paradigms of reconstruction-based action-conditional world modeling.

CLeaR: A Unified Framework for Resolving the Leakage-Degradation Dilemma in Style Transfer

Teng Zhou, Yunhao Chen

原文摘要

Style transfer aims to render target content in the style of a reference image, but existing methods often suffer from content leakage, where objects, layouts, or semantics from the style reference appear in the generated output. Although prior data-driven and training-free methods can reduce leakage, they often face a leakage-degradation dilemma: stronger content suppression may weaken style fidelity, while richer style preservation may reintroduce unwanted reference content. We identify this dilemma across the full style-transfer pipeline, including feature separation, feature-space grounding, and diffusion generation. To address these issues, we propose CLeaR, a training-free framework for content-leakage-resistant style transfer. CLeaR first uses Orthogonal Subspace Projection to define content-reduced style targets in each vision foundation model (VFM) feature space. It then performs Ensemble Inversion, which optimizes a shared pixel-space style anchor satisfying style constraints across multiple VFMs. Finally, Energy-Guided Calibration maintains style alignment during diffusion sampling by steering the denoising trajectory toward the ensemble-defined style manifold. We further provide a theoretical analysis showing that the style-anchor estimation error decreases with the number of VFMs. Experiments on StyleBench demonstrate that CLeaR improves style alignment, reduces content leakage, and achieves better LLM-as-Judge evaluation compared with existing methods.

Fig: Automated Multiagent Behavior Elicitor

Anrui Gu, Zhichao Wang, Nicolai Ouporov

原文摘要

Many social evaluations for multiagent systems study behaviors as they emerge from environments instead of systematically intervening in the environment to elicit such behaviors. We introduce Fig (Finding Interactions in Games), an agentic system that performs targeted elicitation interventions on game environments. It takes a natural language behavior description, decomposes it into sub-behaviors, generates new social games or selects existing ones, and executes single or combined interventions to the games' engine, opponents, instructions, and context. To evaluate model behavior, it combines built-in mechanical checks and synthetic rubric judgments. We validate the interventions, generated games, and evaluation mechanisms via human review. Models attempt the target behavior in 45.2% of episodes on average for valid scenarios generated by Fig for six test behaviors -- cooperation, exploitation, deception, covert coordination, betrayal, and sabotage. For game-behavior pairs with available controls, Fig's interventions increase attempt rates by 10.9% on average compared to matched control games. Fig shows that multiagent environments can serve as programmable test beds for intentional, controllable, and reproducible behavior evaluation. Code is available at https://github.com/fleet-ai/fig.

Learning Multi-Phase Robot Loco-Manipulation via Phase-Conditioned Policy Optimization

Simone Manni, Annika Wollschläger, Dario Bellicoso, Abel Gawel, Marco Hutter, Simon Le Cleac'h, Jan Brüdigam

原文摘要

Complex whole-body loco-manipulation requires executing diverse maneuvers, such as crouching, grasping, and locomotion, within a single long-horizon task. While performing simple pick-and-place behaviors is well-established, scaling to complex, long-horizon tasks remains difficult. Currently, this challenge is addressed by relying on human motion data and correspondingly humanoid platforms, which limits platform independence and introduces substantial data processing overhead. Instead, we extend proximal policy optimization (PPO) to train a single policy for multi-phase tasks across diverse robotic hardware, leveraging prior task structure to shape behavior. Our method adapts PPO using a phase-conditioned critic, phase-gated reward functions, and a multi-phase reset curriculum to guide exploration. To support varied hardware, we employ a decoupled hierarchical control architecture that separates lower-level balancing dynamics from high-level phase execution. We demonstrate multi-stage loco-manipulation skills on hardware on both the Unitree G1 and a Boston Dynamics Spot equipped with a manipulator arm, and validate our design choices through ablations. Our approach enables the acquisition of complex loco-manipulation behaviors purely through environment interaction while directly incorporating high-level task structure into policy learning.

Cross-modal Steering Vectors Exist Across Both Image and Text Generation

Donghao Zeng, Nishant Subramani, Tamar Rott Shaham, Benno Krojer

原文摘要

Are concepts and mechanisms unified across modalities in current AI models, or instead implemented separately for each one? We operationalize this broad question of modality unification by studying cross-modal steering: 1) finding vectors that successfully steer generation on tokens of one modality, which then 2) transfer zero-shot to steer generation when added to tokens of another modality. Our study goes beyond simple correlational alignment (e.g. representational similarity) because steering is fundamentally causal. We study cross-modal steering in several unified multimodal models (UMMs), since they possess shared parameters for language and image generation, focusing on these two modalities. Across diverse steered concepts such as emotion and object size, we show that steering vectors transfer zero-shot in both directions (text-to-image & image-to-text). Even for concepts that are highly unique to one modality (e.g. formal vs. colloquial language), steering vectors often induce a consistent, interpretable effect in the other modality, such as formal clothing and design. This transfer has a geometric signature too: despite a clear modality gap separating text and image representations, steering vectors with strong cross-modal transferability tend to point in similar directions for the same concept. Our findings shed light on how vision and language interact inside unified multimodal models and point towards more general, modality-agnostic approaches for controlling their behavior.

Preserving rare-item recall under a storage budget: quantization, distillation, and the limits of teacher fidelity

Han Chen, Yingrui Li

原文摘要

Under a fixed embedding-storage budget, recommenders can use a small full-precision model, a distilled student, or a higher-rank low-precision model. We asked which choice preserves rare-item recall and whether teacher fidelity reflects it in seven dataset-backbone cells: matrix factorization on Gowalla, Last.fm, Amazon Video Games, Steam, Goodbooks-10k and MovieLens-20M, and LightGCN on Amazon Video Games. Seven candidates fit in 168 bytes per user or item row: 40-dimensional Bayesian personalized ranking (BPR), two 40-dimensional unbiased knowledge distillation (UnKD) students, and factorizations of a 300-dimensional teacher's scores at ranks 40, 80, 155 and 300, stored in 32, 16, 8 and 4 bits. Each test set was evaluated once after fixing candidates and confirmatory analyses. The rank-300 4-bit factorization used 13% of teacher storage and retained 95-103% of its tail recall@20 and 93-97% of its NDCG@20 in every cell. The rank-40 factorization had the lowest tail recall in every cell; the 4-bit factorization had 1.2-12.7 times its tail recall and 0.99-1.46 times its NDCG. UnKD students retained 56-102% of teacher tail recall. In all ten prespecified comparisons across five prospective-expansion cells, the 4-bit factorization had higher tail recall, with simultaneous 95% intervals excluding zero. Teacher-hit retention, the share of the teacher's relevant tail hits also found by a model, ordered 23 of 147 candidate pairs differently from tail recall and identified the wrong tail-recall leader in 3 of 7 cells: models can find relevant tail items the teacher misses. In these cells, spending bytes on rank rather than precision preserved rare-item recall at 7.5 times the arithmetic per score. Compressed recommenders should be judged by total tail recall, not teacher fidelity alone.
