Do Similarity Measures Measure Similarity? How User Activity Creates Phantom Correlation in Recommender Systems

Marco Favier, Noah Daniëls, Jens Leysen, Sander Marinus, Bart Goethals

原文摘要

Item-item similarity is one of the oldest and most foundational signals in recommender systems: two items are assumed to be similar when the same users consume them. Despite the sparsity and scale of interaction data, the implicit assumption across the field is that item co-occurrence reflects genuine shared preference, capturing what users like together. In this paper, we demonstrate that a substantial fraction of observed item-item similarity is an artifact of variance in user activity rather than shared taste. Even if every user consumed items completely independently, differing only in their total consumption volume, standard similarity measures still detect strong associations between items. We term this phenomenon phantom correlation: spurious item association that emerges strictly from heterogeneous user activity in the complete absence of preference structure. Starting from minimal formal assumptions, we show that independent consumption under varying activity is described by a Rasch model, and we derive how the resulting association depends on item popularity for each similarity measure. By comparing our theoretical baseline against real-world benchmark datasets, we reveal the extent to which popular similarity measures reflect phantom correlation, which bears on how item co-occurrence is interpreted and used in collaborative filtering.

CrystalREPA: Transferring Physical Priors from Universal MLIPs to Crystal Generative Models

Chengqian Zhang, Yucheng Jin, Duo Zhang, Tiejun Li, Han Wang

原文摘要

Crystal generative models mainly learn what stable crystals look like, with little explicit supervision for what makes them stable. We reveal a substantial representation gap between state-of-the-art crystal generative models and pretrained universal machine learning interatomic potentials (MLIPs) via energy probing, and show this gap can be closed by a simple training-time alignment. We propose Crystal REPresentation Alignment (CrystalREPA), a plug-and-play framework that aligns the atom-wise hidden states of generative encoders with frozen MLIP representations through an element-aware contrastive objective, transferring stability-aware atomistic priors with marginal training overhead and no additional inference cost. Across three generative frameworks, ten MLIP teachers, and two benchmark datasets, CrystalREPA consistently improves the thermodynamic stability, structural validity, and structural fidelity of generated crystals. Equally important, we find that an MLIP's transfer effectiveness is poorly predicted by its accuracy on standard leaderboards (e.g., Matbench Discovery) but strongly predicted by the distinguishability of its atom-wise representation space, yielding a practical, accuracy-independent criterion for selecting MLIP teachers for generative transfer. Code is available at https://github.com/Chengqian-Zhang/CrystalREPA.

The estimates for Boolean surface area of polynomial threshold functions

Fan Chang, Joseph Slote, Chun-Kai Tseng, Alexander Volberg, Haonan Zhang

原文摘要

Polynomial threshold functions (PTFs) are an important low-complexity class of Boolean functions, with strong connections to learning theory and approximation theory. Recent work on learning and testing PTFs has exploited structural and isoperimetric properties of the class, especially bounds on average sensitivity, one of the central themes in the study of PTFs since the Gotsman--Linial conjecture recently solved by OpenAI, \cite{GLsol}. In this work we study PTFs through the lens of the Boolean surface area (or Talagrand boundary) \[ \mathbf{BSA}[f]=\mathbb{E}|\nabla f|=\mathbb{E}\sqrt{s_{f}(x)}, \] a natural measure of vertex-boundary complexity on the discrete cube. Our main result is that every degree-$d$ PTF has polylogarithmic Boolean surface area: \[ \mathbf{BSA}[f]\le C_d(\log(en))^{C_d}. \] The proof is based on the PTF Restriction Lemma of Kabanets, Kane, and Lu \cite{KKL2017} and proceeds through a tail bound for the pointwise sensitivity. In particular, it controls all subcritical fractional moments of the sensitivity. We also record a random block partition principle for Boolean surface area and an alternative recursive argument following Kane's work \cite{DK} on average sensitivity, which independently yields the second bound \[ \mathbf{BSA}[f]\le \exp(C(d)\sqrt{\log n}). \] This bound was obtained in \cite{FSVZ} without clarifying the magnitude of $C(d)$, which we do below. For lower moments $\bE |\nabla f|^η \le C(d, η)$ there is no dependence on $n$ for $0<η<1$.

Goal-Oriented Ordered Autoencoding for Successive Refinement in Progressive Communication

Qi Liao, Dario Bega

原文摘要

Goal-oriented communication often struggles to sustain downstream task performance under variable and unpredictable bandwidth. We address this problem by proposing GO-OAE (Goal-Oriented Ordered AutoEncoding), which learns a progressively refinable quantized latent sequence, optimized directly for task utility rather than source reconstruction. Each component of the sequence is represented for transmission by its code index, and the learned ordering enables inference from any received prefix of the index sequence, with performance improving as more indices arrive. We prove that optimizing the goal-oriented distortion objective is equivalent to solving a weighted conditional information bottleneck formulation, and introduce an unbiased multi-prefix importance sampling (MPIS) estimator, to reduce GO-OAE training computational cost from O(BK) to O(Bm) with m << K, and reduces the estimator variance by a factor of 1/m. Experiments show that, on MiniImageNet, GO-OAE achieves over 96% of the lossless upper-bound classification accuracy using 324 bits per image (683X compression vs. raw RGB), and already attains over 94% of the upper bound with only 70% of the transmitted indices. It consistently outperforms reconstruction-optimized codecs and ordered autoencoders trained with uniform prefix sampling across all transmission budgets, demonstrating effective communication at extreme compression rates.

CountVideoBench: A Benchmark to Evaluate Prediction Biases on the Object Counting task by Video-Language Models

Marc Chapus, Carlos Crispim-Junior, Véronique Eglin, Atilla Baskurt

原文摘要

Object counting in videos remains a poorly characterized capability of multimodal large language models. Counting questions are included in many existing VideoQA benchmarks, but the ground-truth count distributions in these benchmarks are heavily skewed toward small values. Across the nine benchmarks we survey, the median ground-truth count is at most five, and the three most frequent values together account for between 45% and 93% of the videos. The resulting mean accuracy is then dominated by the most frequent counts; a value-dependent bias at a rare count contributes negligibly to the average and remains invisible. We introduce CountVideoBench, a benchmark of 2,600 synthetic videos covering 26 cardinalities in the interval [5, 50] (100 videos each), grouped into six clusters of consecutive counts that span the range while enabling near-neighbor comparisons. Each video contains a single class of static objects under a controlled camera motion, removing object motion and reducing recognition as confounds. We evaluate sixteen video-language models from nine architecture families in a zero-shot setting. No model exceeds 27.6% Exact Match. The dependence of accuracy on cardinality varies across models, ranging from monotonic decline to a non-monotonic peak-and-collapse pattern, which rules out increasing difficulty with cardinality as the dominant explanation of counting failure. Every model further concentrates its predictions on its own set of preferred integers, with accuracy peaks coinciding with these values and collapsing at adjacent counts. These findings highlight the need for balanced, diagnostic counting benchmarks to reliably assess this fundamental visual capability.

The Evolution and 'Chineseness' of Urban Screens in China: From Propaganda Posters to Smart City Interfaces

Wuwu Ran

原文摘要

Urban screens have become a global feature of the media city, yet their developmental paths are not universal. This paper argues that the evolution of urban screens in China constitutes a distinct paradigm of media urbanism, termed Chineseness, understood here not as cultural essence but as a relational, historically situated configuration of three linked elements: deep-rooted lineages of public communication; state-steered technological leapfrogging driven by industrial policy and mega-events; and a regulatory paradox that enables spectacular scale while tightening operational control. Drawing on a five-stage genealogy (1990-present), a chronology of representative screens, and five paradigmatic cases, the study shows how this configuration produces temporal-spatial compression, the coexistence of multiple technological generations, and privileges collective witnessing over device-centric interactivity. The paper contributes a documented genealogy of Chinese urban screens, develops temporal-spatial compression and collective witnessing as analytical tools for non-Western media ecologies, and positions Chineseness as a globally relevant alternative to market-led models of media architecture.

Beyond Physical Illness: Can Clinical Narratives Reveal Emerging Mental Health Risks in Chronically Ill Patients?

Sudeshna Jana, Siddhartha Laha, Manjira Sinha, Tirthankar Dasgupta, Pabitra Mitra

原文摘要

Mental-health risks such as depression, dementia, and suicidal ideation can emerge during hospitalization among chronically ill patients and may worsen without timely recognition and intervention. However, most existing mental health studies focus on patients with established psychiatric conditions rather than patients hospitalized primarily for physical illness. In this work, we investigate whether latent mental-health risk in chronically ill patients can be inferred from longitudinal clinical narratives. We construct a weakly supervised cohort around 4,000 patients from MIMIC-III using mental-health evidence extracted from discharge summaries. A hierarchical state-space framework derives mental-health representations from day-wise clinical narratives and models their temporal evolution for risk estimation throughout hospitalization. Preliminary results demonstrate improved binary risk prediction using the proposed representations and show distinct model derived risk trajectories between risk and no-risk cohorts, providing a foundation for studying emerging mental-health risks in chronically ill patients.

EEGaze: Multimodal Attention Prediction in Visual Search via EEG-Based Saliency Refinement

Mansi Sharma, Dinar Orazgaliyev, Antonio Krüger, Philipp Müller

原文摘要

Visual search is ubiquitous in daily life, from locating keys in a messy apartment to finding a tool in a cluttered workshop or an application icon on a desktop screen. While visual attention is to a large extent driven by image content, research in psychology indicates that user cognitive states have a significant influence on attention allocation. A promising way to access information about cognitive states is via Electroencephalography (EEG) recordings. Despite this potential, previous works in computational attention modeling have largely disregarded EEG, and related studies in psychology operate with abstract, simplistic stimuli, or even artificially guided search procedures. We bridge this gap with two contributions. First, we present EEGaze 140, the largest publicly available multimodal dataset of free visual search with realistic stimuli. The dataset contains synchronized EEG and eye tracking recordings from 36 participants across 140 naturalistic scenes, covering two scenarios: searching for desktop icons and finding tools in cluttered workshop scenes. Second, we introduce EEGazeNet, the first method for human attention prediction in visual search that integrates EEG signals. Our approach consists of a EEG guided refinement stage that adapts the output of a state of the art saliency prediction method to the user current cognitive state. In comprehensive evaluations on EEGaze 140, we show that EEGazeNet consistently outperforms all baselines and ablation conditions.

VidEdit3D: Flexible 3D Gaussian Editing with Video Diffusion

Yanming Yang, Chenxi Song, Tong Zhao, Juntao Xu, Wenhao Rao, Yiwen Chen, Yiwei Wang, Chi Zhang

原文摘要

Recent advancements in text-guided 3D editing, particularly with 3D Gaussian Splatting (3DGS), have shown promise but still lag behind the flexibility of 2D editing tools. Existing methods face a critical trade-off between preserving multi-view consistency and allowing structural modifications. Image-based editors can also struggle to apply the intended edit to objects viewed from unusual angles. To address these limitations, we introduce VidEdit3D, a framework that reformulates 3D scene editing as a trajectory-based video editing task. By drawing a parallel between camera movement in static 3D scenes and temporal dynamics in video, we leverage the robust spatiotemporal priors of pre-trained Video Diffusion Models (VDMs) to encourage semantic and structural coherence across views. Specifically, we propose Trajectory-Guided Rendering (TGR) to select informative keyframes and construct smooth video clips aligned with VDM input requirements. To propagate edits from an anchor view to these clips, we develop Flow-Aligned Video Editing (FAVE), a training-free framework incorporating an Editing Consistency Guidance (ECG) mechanism. ECG contrasts source and edited image conditions at a shared latent state, using scheduled source-image amplification to strengthen adherence to the edited reference while maintaining original scene context. Finally, we introduce Region-Selective 3DGS Refinement (RS-GS) to strictly confine geometric and appearance updates to target primitives, reducing background attribute leakage. Experiments demonstrate stronger instruction alignment and better multi-view consistency than the baselines.

CLOSURE: Cross-Channel Closure for Multivariate Time Series Anomaly Detection

Fan Xu, Hao Wu, Zhi Song, Hanbo Huang, Wenzhuo Ma, Nan Wang, Wei Gong, Xibin Zhao

原文摘要

Multivariate time series produced by industrial installations and server clusters are under continuous monitoring, and anomaly detection is the first line of defense before a local fault escalates into a system-wide failure. In the absence of labels, the dominant paradigm trains a reconstruction model on normal data and scores the residual to reach a verdict. Recent work has steadily enriched the expressiveness of the recovery map through Transformers, diffusion models, and cross-scale associations. A residual, however, only certifies that an observation can be recovered; it does not certify that the variables still explain one another as they do under normal operation. A coordinated yet unfamiliar operating transition inflates the residual without breaking any relationship, whereas a sensor drifting away from its peers may leave the residual silent. Methods that fold inter-variable dependencies into the reconstruction objective inherit this ambiguity, because their relational evidence is ultimately supervised by the same recovery loss. We therefore propose CLOSURE, which evaluates recoverability and cross-channel consistency as two normal-data prediction tasks learned in separation. The recoverability task is solved by a diffusion reconstructor conditioned on a discrete memory of normal temporal bases. The consistency task is solved by a relation-closure operator that predicts every channel exclusively from the others, where the target's own trajectory is withheld and sparse signed gates decide which peers are actually used. The two scores are reconciled only through calibration on normal data. Extensive experiments show that CLOSURE consistently outperforms recent reconstruction-, frequency-, and topology-based detectors on public benchmark streams, confirming the value of examining consistency alongside recoverability.

E0.5: From Reconstructive to Future-Predictive 3D Foundations for Robotic World-Action Modeling

X-Era AI Lab Team, :, Jianhao Lai, Zhihao Zhan, Zhiquan Liao, Qichang Li, Shubin Chen, Zhiyuan Liu 等 28 位作者

原文摘要

World-action models (WAMs) offer a promising framework for embodied intelligence, yet mainstream approaches remain centered on video foundation models or vision-language models. Even when geometric features extracted by 3D models such as VGGT are incorporated, they are typically passed into a video model or VLM that serves as the primary backbone, leaving 3D geometry as an auxiliary input or prediction target rather than the native foundation for world modeling. We present E0.5, a geometry-native world-action model built directly on 3D foundation models. E0.5 introduces two key innovations. First, it adopts a 3D foundation model as the primary backbone, making 3D geometry the native representation for both world modeling and action prediction. Second, it explicitly predicts future 3D states together with actions, enabling the model to capture geometric world dynamics beyond action-only modeling or future video prediction. Experiments on RoboTwin 2.0 first demonstrate the effectiveness of E0.5 without embodied-data pretraining, achieving success rates of 89.90\% and 50.09\% under clean and randomized settings, respectively. Building on these results, we further pretrain E0.5 on more than 160k robot trajectories from AgiBotWorld-Beta, jointly learning robot actions and future geometry within the pretrained 3D foundation. This embodied pretraining improves mean real-world manipulation success rates by approximately 15 and 7 percentage points on AgileX Piper and Zerith H1, respectively. Together, these results demonstrate the potential of geometry-native foundations to acquire robot interaction knowledge and transfer it to physical manipulation. E0.5 embodies this geometry-native approach as a member of the VWA family of world-action models.

SU(2)-Equivariant Spinor Message Passing for Molecular Magnetism

Erh-Wei Sheng, Beom Seok Kang, Yuchao Lin, Danish Khan, Anima Anandkumar

原文摘要

Predicting molecular magnetic properties often requires costly electronic-structure calculations that account for spin-orbit coupling. Inspired by the spinor nature of the underlying electronic states, we introduce eSpinor, an SU(2)-equivariant graph neural network that propagates spinor features alongside the integer-rank tensors used in conventional equivariant models. We initialize spinors from eigenvectors of an approximate Hamiltonian that includes spin-orbit coupling. The network preserves their rotation laws and makes predictions independent of arbitrary eigenbasis choices. Comparisons with geometry-only and Hamiltonian-informed baselines assess the benefit of this architecture beyond supplying electronic information. On cobalt single-molecule magnet candidates, eSpinor improves magnetic anisotropy predictions, including for unseen ligands. It also improves excitation-energy predictions for dysprosium candidates with unseen ligands, extending the benefit to rotationally invariant scalar targets. For a dysprosium magnetic resonance imaging probe, it predicts real electron-spin correlations and low-field nuclear relaxation rates more accurately despite static crystal-field errors similar to the Hamiltonian-informed baseline. This dynamical advantage extends from water to methanol without retraining. These results support spinor message passing as a useful inductive bias for molecular magnetism in the tested systems and show why model selection should be guided by accuracy on the intended physical observables.

Model Selection for Off-Policy Evaluation via Pairwise Bellman Validation

Lars van der Laan, Vasilis Syrgkanis, Nathan Kallus

原文摘要

Model selection and hyperparameter tuning pose a central challenge in off-policy evaluation (OPE) because errors of fitted Q-functions and occupancy-ratio estimates cannot be directly evaluated from held-out transitions. Bellman-residual and minimax validation methods often require auxiliary regressions or optimization over separate critic classes, adding computational and tuning costs. We introduce pairwise Bellman validation (PBV), a tuning-free minimax procedure for selecting among finite classes of fitted Q-functions and occupancy-ratio estimators using held-out transitions. PBV constructs critics from pairwise candidate differences, requiring only finitely many empirical moment calculations without auxiliary validation models or separate critic optimization. We establish finite-sample oracle inequalities relative to the best available candidate, even under candidate-class misspecification. Our key insight is that Q-function errors and log ratios between candidate and true occupancy ratios provide oracle critics whose Bellman and adjoint Bellman moments control estimation error. Pairwise candidate differences approximate these unknown critics, while penalties account for comparator approximation error. For Q-function selection, we first develop unweighted PBV, which evaluates pairwise Bellman moments under the offline distribution and admits oracle guarantees under a pairwise coercivity condition relating the offline distribution to the target-policy dynamics. We then develop target-aligned PBV (TA-PBV), which uses marginalized importance weighting to provide error control without pairwise coercivity. For occupancy-ratio selection, we develop adjoint PBV (A-PBV), which evaluates adjoint Bellman moments against log-ratio critics. On Hopper and Deep OPE, unweighted PBV performs competitively, while target-occupancy weighting can improve performance in settings with controlled overlap.

Graph Neural Network for Wide-Area 6DoF Ambisonic Rendering

Gioele Greco, Filippo Marri, Mirco Pezzoli, Fabio Antonacci

原文摘要

Wide-area 6DoF rendering from sparse Ambisonic recordings is commonly addressed by interpolating parametric spatial descriptors rather than the waveforms themselves. This preserves the fidelity of a nearby measured signal and avoids phase artifacts caused by mixing distant arrays. However, existing DirAC-based approaches rely on geometric interpolation weights that do not depend on the acoustic scene observed by the microphones. We propose a lightweight Graph Neural Network (GNN) that refines only this interpolation stage. The known Ambisonic arrays and the query position are represented as a graph whose nodes contain local DirAC features and whose edges encode relative distance and directional relations. The network predicts positive query-conditioned weights over the measured arrays, while the target energy, diffuseness, and direction of arrival are reconstructed by an analytical DirAC layer. Experiments on unseen rooms, unseen speech signals, and unseen array configurations show that the proposed weighting improves energy reconstruction and radiation-pattern similarity with respect to baseline interpolation.

LUCID: Local Understanding of Covariate Importance with Conditional Density Estimation

Yixiao Wang, Srikar Katta, Jon Donnelly, Emanuele Borgonovo, Cynthia Rudin

原文摘要

Computing local-level variable importance (VI) is critical for understanding machine learning models. Local permutation-based VI metrics offer a simple yet powerful approach, measuring how much a model's output changes when perturbing its inputs. However, existing perturbation strategies often ignore feature dependence or account for it only through restricted approximations. Perturbing a feature without fully respecting this dependence can generate unrealistic counterfactuals, thereby evaluating the model in regions unsupported by the observed data distribution. We address this gap by introducing a new model-agnostic local VI metric and estimator, Local Understanding of Covariate Importance with conditional Density estimation (LUCID). LUCID perturbs features of interest using plausible values drawn from the full conditional distribution given the remaining observed features. We establish theoretical connections between LUCID and existing VI measures, and provide an estimator with convergence guarantees and uncertainty quantification. Finally, we demonstrate LUCID's stable performance and practical utility across simulated and real-world examples.

CMASS: A ClimbMix Agentic Search Suite for Evaluating Search Agents Across Heterogeneous Tasks

Sahel Sharifymoghaddam, Lingwei Gu, Yijun Ge, Jimmy Lin

原文摘要

Evaluating advances in agentic search requires testing whether methods generalize across tasks and corpus scale. Changing web search services impede controlled comparisons, while small corpora assembled around benchmark questions provide a limited test of generalization. We introduce CMASS, the ClimbMix Agentic Search Suite, which projects three search benchmarks---BrowseComp-Plus, Total Recall QA, and DeepSearchQA---and the multi-hop question-answering dataset HotpotQA onto a shared, fixed corpus. The target, ClimbMix, is a pre-training corpus of 553M documents and approximately 400B tokens, assembled independently of the benchmark questions. Our projection pipeline verifies grounding, answer uniqueness, and set completeness through independent agent audits, controlled revision, and human review. The 423 questions span entity identification, multi-hop reasoning, exhaustive answer sets, and aggregation. Evaluations of three models expose substantial headroom for open-weight agents and show that high answer accuracy can coexist with incomplete evidence coverage. By enabling measurement of accuracy alongside evidence coverage, search effort, and closed-book performance, CMASS supports developing agents that find sufficient evidence and produce complete answers efficiently. The pipeline code and dataset are available at https://cmass.tech

Fuji: The Shape, Composition, and Spread of Demand Bursts on Robinhood Chain

Pranay Anchuri

原文摘要

Demand on blockchain-based marketplaces arrives in bursts and at a high rate. On these platforms the data are completely visible, which makes it feasible to compare the bursty demand against the usual load. The congestion manifests as an increased demand for gas, the primary resource a blockchain sells. Existing studies consider how to price the gas. The demand itself, and what it is made of during bursts, has not been measured. We measure it on Robinhood Chain, a layer-2 blockchain that quickly became a venue for trading tokenized equities and memecoins. We collected the data from every block of its first three active months and more than 50 million Uniswap swaps that occurred during bursty periods. We find that a burst trades about as many pools as a quiet period, mostly different ones, and trades them harder, on top of elevated demand that accumulated for hours. With the bursts aligned on their peaks, the median peak is 2.5 times the usual load. Both the rise and the fall of the demand are described by the sum of two exponential functions with different timescales, a slow one of hours and a fast one of minutes. Against a matched quiet period, a burst has 1.05 times the pools, 1.40 times the trades, and 1.21 times the senders. We use two models to explain the arrival of bursts: externally triggered cascades and self-excitation. The former fits the data relatively better. Inside a burst, the entry of each trader into a pool is followed for about 24 seconds by more entries than the existing traders predict. Whether this is because of imitation or because of a shared signal is left open.

Preference-Guided Cooperation in Multi-Objective Multi-Agent Reinforcement Learning

Qiyue Xia, J. Michael Herrmann

原文摘要

Multi-objective multi-agent reinforcement learning (MOMARL) addresses agent coordination and objective trade-offs simultaneously while optimising overall system performance. Existing work tends to treat multi-agent cooperation and multi-objective optimisation as largely independent components of a learning problem, which amounts to an exorbitant complexity except in trivial cases. We study here whether the structure provided by multiple objectives can itself be exploited to facilitate cooperation, rather than being treated as an additional optimisation challenge. We formulate MOMARL at both the team and individual levels and introduce objective-wise counterfactual credit assignment to evaluate each agent's contribution across the team objectives. We propose Meta-Gradient Informed Multi-Objective Multi-Agent Reinforcement Learning (MIRL), with static (MIRL-S) and dynamic (MIRL-D) variants. By incorporating meta-gradient information, MIRL enables agents to learn how to prioritise objectives individually while collectively optimising the system-level objective, allowing the multi-objective structure to directly guide cooperation. Experiments on a multi-objective multiple particle environment show that our methods improve Pareto-front quality over baselines, with the dynamic variant achieving the strongest performance.

A meta-modal logic for bisimulations

Alfredo Burrieza, Fernando Soler-Toscano, Antonio Yuste-Ginel

原文摘要

We propose a novel modal study of bisimulations. Our contribution is threefold. First, we extend the basic modal language with a new modality $\nbi$, whose intended meaning is universal quantification over all states that are bisimilar to the current one under a given bisimulation. We show that bisimulations are definable in this object language via frame validity (for the forth and back conditions) and model validity (for the atomic harmony condition). Additionally, some other related notions (refinements, simulations, bisimulations for a restricted set of variables, and $n$-bisimulations) are also shown to be definable. Second, we provide a sound and complete axiomatisation of the class of all pairs of Kripke models that are bisimulation-related. Third, we show that the satisfiability problem of this logic is decidable and PSPACE-complete via a translation to standard modal logic $K$ under a simple frame condition. All our results are encoded and verified by Isabelle/HOL.

Multi-Objective Reinforcement Learning Using Routed Ensembles and Trajectory Attribution

Zhenshuo Zhang, Ruoxuan Xiong, Hongyang R. Zhang

原文摘要

Multi-objective reinforcement learning is a fundamental problem for modern AI, with applications spanning post-training, reasoning models, and robotic control. A central challenge is to learn policies that balance competing objectives, such as helpfulness versus honesty in safety and alignment, or speed versus energy in robotics. The optimal policy can vary sharply with objective-weighting combinations, and the extent of this variation depends crucially on the degree of conflict among objectives, making per-preference policy learning sample-inefficient. In this paper, we introduce objective-conflict coefficients and derive near-optimal regret bounds for online settings using this measure, thereby quantifying the impact of misalignment on learning efficiency. Then, we design routed ensemble policy learning, an algorithm that maintains a small set of basis policies and dynamically routes trajectories to the policy with the highest potential reward. Finally, we consider trajectory selection as another approach to mitigate objective conflict, and design a kernel surrogate trajectory attribution algorithm that estimates how feedback signals from a set of trajectories influence policy learning on other trajectories. The kernel can capture nonlinear interactions such as synergy and antagonism between trajectories. We evaluate our approach across diverse environments and benchmarks: routed ensembles improve average performance by 4.3% over baselines for online environments from Meta-World and MO-Gymnasium, and kernel surrogate attribution improves correlation with leave-one-out analysis over existing baselines by 50%. When applied to trajectory selection, kernel-based attribution yields a 27% improvement in reward over baseline attribution methods.

Hierarchical GNNs for power flow: letting physics shape the hierarchy

Carmine Delle Femine, Leire Garin Atxaga, Asier Diaz-Iglesias, Juan Pablo Maroto Herrera, Ane Miren Florez-Tapia, Marco Quartulli, Izaro Goienetxea Urkizu

原文摘要

Hierarchical latent communication improves the generalization of a power-flow model, shared across three grids, to new operating scenarios. The module exchanges information through two reduced graphs inside the corrective network of GENCO, replacing two of its local correction steps. We compare Kron-derived transports, a same-anchor Quotient construction and the flat GENCO Base architecture, all trained under one protocol of our own with about a hundred times fewer optimizer updates per grid than GENCO's reference training: 200 epochs on three grid topologies, fewer than 1,900 training scenarios per grid and three initialization seeds per model. Evaluation uses 200 newly generated, preselected scenarios per grid. On the training topologies, Kron reaches a macro family-balanced voltage error of $0.851\pm0.110$, 51.3% below a per-bus mean fitted on training solutions (1.747). Kron is below this reference on 98.5% of the 600 fresh scenarios, and both hierarchical models outperform it on every training topology in all three seeds. The flat baseline reaches $5.660\pm0.899$ and does not outperform the reference on any training topology, so Kron's 85.0% reduction relative to it compares architectures within our training regime. Kron is also 31.0% below Quotient ($1.235\pm0.225$). These results demonstrate generalization across operating scenarios within the studied topologies, with one set of learned parameters shared across grids. On two topologies unseen in training, the current models do not yet outperform the fitted reference in calibrated transfer; extrapolation to new topologies is the next development objective.

SPECOLA: A Tool for Specification Driven Robot Evaluation

Immanuel Ampomah Mensah, Hadas Kress-Gazit

原文摘要

Simulation benchmarks are a useful way to measure progress in robotics; typically they provide success rate as the dominant measure of performance. However, success rate reports only whether a rollout completed the task, hiding by what margin it succeeded, how sensitive the success is to goal parameter changes, requirements it may have violated, and whether success persisted. Signal Temporal Logic (STL) provides a formal language for capturing specifications; it can be used to define requirements, and measure how close a robot behavior is to satisfying or violating them. Using STL monitors in a simulator, however, requires exposing simulator state and mapping it to specification-relevant signals. We present Specola, a tool for evaluating robot behaviors in simulation with respect to STL specifications. Specola provides an interface for writing specifications over simulator signals, and creates and manages the relevant monitors while a policy executes. We provide a Python API and command-line interface for integrating monitoring into existing policy execution loops. We provide an adapter interface for connecting new simulators, and provide adapters for nine simulation environments and benchmarks, including LIBERO, RoboCasa, Isaac Lab, and RoboDojo. We provide case studies that illustrate the nuanced evaluation that Specola enables. Code and adapters are available at https://github.com/specola-eval/specola.

Efficient Co-simulator Integration with Application to Smart Grids

Talha Ibn Aziz, Jihoon Og, Ioanis Nikolaidis, Omid Ardakanian

原文摘要

The evolution of the electric power grid towards a ``smart grid'' is an example of an emerging large-scale cyber-physical system. To study the potential of cyberattacks or other sources of extreme events, high-fidelity co-simulation is one of the few realistic strategies. In this work, we demonstrate a practical and high-performance co-simulation strategy for smart grids, which provides lessons about co-simulation integration that can be carried over to other cyber-physical systems. Specifically, we present a co-simulation platform based on the Mosaik framework that integrates several federates including OpenDSS for power flow, a refined NS-3 for communication networks, and custom Python-based simulators for on-load tap changer control, distributed state estimation, and data collection. We compare synchronization strategies -- exhaustive lock-step time advancement versus an optimized event-driven approach that exploits lower-bound time stamps (LBTS) and next-event prediction -- and introduce targeted refinements to NS-3 event handling and relevance filtering of internal events. Performance is evaluated on two standard IEEE benchmark systems: the 13-node test feeder with tap-changer voltage regulation and a large-scale 33-bus system augmented with 32 European low-voltage feeders (1,793 nodes total) performing distributed state estimation with thousands of phasors and smart meters. Experimental results demonstrate that the refined event-based synchronization that uses LBTS-based NS-3 event filtering reduces execution time by up to 50\% over non-filtered LBTS, and more than 4$\times$ in the tap control scenario compared to naïve lock-step methods, while strictly preserving temporal correctness and simulation accuracy.

A Category-Selective Encryption Framework for Privacy Protection of UAV Images

Ting Yan, Minghui Shang, Haolang Sun, Xu Wang, Yamin Han, Mingze He

原文摘要

Imagery captured by unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) systems increasingly raises privacy concerns, as UAV aerial surveillance routinely captures sensitive objects such as pedestrians and vehicles alongside ordinary scene content. Existing privacy-preserving approaches typically employ class-agnostic saliency detection to indiscriminately obfuscate all visually salient regions, leading to unnecessary information loss and hindering downstream scene analysis. This paper proposes a category-selective encryption framework for privacy-preserving UAV surveillance. The core advance over prior class-agnostic approaches is semantic-level selectivity: the system first recognizes what is present in the scene via an 80-class detector, then encrypts only user-specified sensitive categories while leaving non-sensitive objects and background intact for downstream analytics. The framework supports two complementary encryption schemes: Thumbnail-Preserving Encryption (TPE), which applies adaptive pixelation with a learnable blend parameter and recovers content through a jointly trained Enhanced U-Net, and XOR stream cipher encryption, which offers parameter-free, mathematically exact reversibility. The architectural design, composite loss formulation, and joint training methodology are presented in detail, establishing a foundation for practical privacy-preserving UAV surveillance that balances protection strength and scene utility.

TRACE: Memory-Efficient Time Series Class-Incremental Learning via Temporal-Spectral Reconstruction

Junhui Mao, Junru Zhang, Liming Ye, Cheng Peng, Haoran Shi, Xiaoli Tang, Baokun Wang, Bin Dou 等 10 位作者

原文摘要

Web-connected sensing applications continuously generate multivariate time series with evolving behavioral categories, making Time Series Class-Incremental Learning (TSCIL) essential for adapting to new classes without forgetting previously acquired knowledge. However, preserving diverse and evolving class distributions under strict privacy and memory constraints remains a fundamental challenge. Existing approaches often face a trade-off between retaining sufficient historical knowledge for accurate recognition and minimizing the memory required for continual adaptation. To address these limitations, we propose TRACE, a memory-efficient, replay-free framework that preserves class-specific knowledge through generative modeling rather than sample rehearsal. TRACE employs a compact, frozen temporal-spectral representation and lightweight class-specific autoencoders to capture complex intra-class variations. By independently preserving each class model, TRACE avoids recursive generation and catastrophic forgetting, while enabling direct classification through reconstruction-based scoring without retaining historical samples or large statistical matrices. Extensive experiments across five TSCIL benchmarks demonstrate that TRACE achieves competitive classification accuracy while reducing mean retained memory by approximately 98.26% compared with TS-ACL, the strongest evaluated analytical baseline, and achieving an approximately 33.43% relative improvement in accuracy on GrabMyo.

The Watchtower Imperative: Lifespan-Calibrated Evaluation for Frontier AI

Casey M. Williams, Jennifer Victoria Scurrell

原文摘要

The gap between AI capability deployment and safety assurance is structural and cannot be closed through internal evaluations alone. Analyzing documented harms (2017-2026) across the human lifespan reveals that disparate incidents --- from voice assistants endangering children to AI companions implicated in adolescent suicide and automated care denials for the elderly --- reflect a single failure: evaluating systems against an implicit adult user model. We introduce five developmental moderators structured into a Lifespan Vulnerability Matrix across six life stages. The matrix reveals a nonmonotonic risk distribution: vulnerability peaks at both ends of the lifespan, governance coverage is asymmetrical, and authority to convert model errors into real-world impact is scrutinized least. We then propose a set of lifespan design principles generalizing existing child-protective instruments, and an institution-agnostic, three-tier external evaluation framework --- comprising automated simulation, expert red teaming, and post-deployment monitoring --- indexed directly to matrix risk cells.

Genotypic Triggers: Exposing Pharmacogenomic Blind Spots via Host-Specific Backdoors in Generative Antimicrobial Peptide Models

Doniyorkhon Obidov, Xiaolong Guo, Yonghui Li, Kaichen Yang

原文摘要

Large Language Models (LLMs) have accelerated drug discovery, particularly in the automated design of antimicrobial peptides (AMPs). However, current validation pipelines for peptide generation models overlook historical precedents showing that certain drugs carry health risks predominantly for individuals with specific genetic profiles. In this paper, we demonstrate that such targeted health risks can be induced intentionally and at scale by manipulating models that generate peptide candidates. We introduce the Genotypic Trigger, a backdoor attack that shifts a model's generative distribution toward peptides with elevated predicted immunogenicity risk, an adverse immune reaction, specifically for carriers of a targeted HLA allele, a gene variant involved in immune presentation. Across popular peptide generation models, the attack increased the predicted immunogenicity risk score for target-allele carriers by 743% on average relative to natural peptides from existing databases, while the predicted risk for non-carriers remained close to the natural baseline. Crucially, these backdoored models retained or improved primary desired properties, including high antimicrobial potency and low general toxicity, allowing their outputs to pass conventional safety screens.

MatAnyone-E: Sparse Memory Propagation for Efficient High-Resolution Video Matting

Shuyun Wang, Shangchen Zhou, Peiqing Yang, Yuekun Dai, Xin Yu, Chen Change Loy

原文摘要

High-resolution video matting requires preserving fine details, such as hair strands and soft transparency, while maintaining consistency across frames. Memory-based methods achieve strong matting quality by matching current-frame features with information stored from earlier frames, but this process becomes increasingly costly as resolution grows. We present MatAnyone-E, an efficient extension of MatAnyone 2 that focuses computation where it is most needed. Our approach first performs low-resolution propagation to identify uncertain regions that require closer inspection and the memory candidates most relevant to them. It then performs high-resolution matching only for these regions using the selected memory, while reusing low-resolution matching results elsewhere. This strategy reduces both the number of locations requiring detailed matching and the amount of memory searched, while preserving the information needed to produce a complete matte. We further reduce the cost of generating high-resolution mattes with a lightweight decoder designed around measured runtime bottlenecks and trained to reproduce the original decoder's representations. Experiments show that MatAnyone-E maintains matting quality comparable to MatAnyone 2 while achieving an estimated 7.4x inference speedup and reducing peak GPU memory usage to 7.6% of the usage of MatAnyone 2 at 4K. With compilation-enabled inference on a single NVIDIA H200 GPU, it reaches 73.07 FPS at 1080p and 28.62 FPS at 4K.

Can JEV Support Clinical Trial Criteria Assessment?

Mengxian He, Ziyue Gao, Chun Li, Shunyi Zhang, Hao Wei, Minqing Zhang, Wu Yuan

原文摘要

Clinical trial prescreening requires distinguishing unmet conditions from insufficient evidence in patient records. Given patient records, criterion questions, and predefined answer options, we retrospectively compared JEV, a non-generative decision model returning native option probabilities, with schema-constrained Qwen Flash across 2,048 test patient-condition pairs from TrialGPT and question-answer datasets derived from MIMIC-III and MIMIC-IV, all evaluated under strict Zero Data Retention (ZDR) policies to ensure clinical data privacy. Both models assessed conditions individually or in batches sharing the same patient context, with performance measured against reference labels. In batch mode, JEV and Qwen achieved similar macro-F1 scores on TrialGPT (0.652 vs. 0.660) and MIMIC-IV (0.807 vs. 0.814), whereas JEV substantially outperformed Qwen on MIMIC-III (0.768 vs. 0.534; $Δ$ = +0.234, 95% CI: 0.187-0.281). This advantage largely reflected higher recall for conditions labeled as having insufficient information (56.3% vs. 9.9%). Across all three datasets, JEV also had lower observed median job latency (1.18-1.40 vs. 2.80-8.90 s) and 53%-74% lower estimated cost per condition. These findings position JEV as an initial assessment component that provides criterion-level judgments and flags potential information gaps for review. JEV's observed errors in interpreting clinical evidence underscore the need to verify its outputs against patient records before they inform eligibility decisions.

Quantifying the failure of symmetry learning in linear diffusion models due to initialization and finite-sample effects

John J. Vastola, Kanaka Rajan

原文摘要

Data distributions often possess one or more symmetries: for example, all orientations of any specific dog are included in the distribution of all possible dog pictures. Despite the omnipresence of such symmetries, modern generative modeling approaches may fail to incorporate or learn them, which can lead to lower sample efficiency and poorer generalization. To what extent do diffusion models fail to learn data distribution symmetries, and what sources of symmetry breaking are most responsible? Here, we answer this question in the theoretically tractable setting of linear diffusion models. We show that of three potential sources of symmetry breaking---a non-symmetric initial weight matrix, a noisy learning target, and finite-sample noise---target noise produces the most robust symmetry breaking, since it persists even in the sample-rich regime. Using local laws from random matrix theory, we derive formulas for average symmetry error in fairly general cases involving symmetry within a subspace and show that smaller symmetries are harder to learn.
