SpecXMaster Technical Report

Yutang Ge, Yaning Cui, Hanzheng Li, Jun-Jie Wang, Fanjie Xu, Jinhan Dong, Yongqi Jin, Dongxu Cui 等 21 位作者

原文摘要

Intelligent spectroscopy serves as a pivotal element in AI-driven closed-loop scientific discovery, functioning as the critical bridge between matter structure and artificial intelligence. However, conventional expert-dependent spectral interpretation encounters substantial hurdles, including susceptibility to human bias and error, dependence on limited specialized expertise, and variability across interpreters. To address these challenges, we propose SpecXMaster, an intelligent framework leveraging Agentic Reinforcement Learning (RL) for NMR molecular spectral interpretation. SpecXMaster enables automated extraction of multiplicity information from both 1H and 13C spectra directly from raw FID (free induction decay) data. This end-to-end pipeline enables fully automated interpretation of NMR spectra into chemical structures. It demonstrates superior performance across multiple public NMR interpretation benchmarks and has been refined through iterative evaluations by professional chemical spectroscopists. We believe that SpecXMaster, as a novel methodological paradigm for spectral interpretation, will have a profound impact on the organic chemistry community.

Coding for Multiple Reverse-Complement and Palindromic Duplications

Aryeh Lev Zabokritskiy

原文摘要

Reverse-complement (RC) and palindromic (PAL) duplications insert a reversed copy of a length-$k$ block immediately after the block; an RC duplication also applies a fixed involutive complement to the inserted symbols. We study $q$-ary codes correcting $t$ such operations applied in sequence, where later operations may copy inserted symbols. For fixed $q\geq2$ and $k,t\geq1$, we prove that every length-$n$ code $C$ for either channel has redundancy $n-\log_q|C|\geq t\log_q n-O_{q,k,t}(1)$; for fixed $q,k$ and $1\leq t=t(n)=o(n)$ the lower bound is $t\log_q(n/t)-O_{q,k}(t)$. For fixed $k$, known codes for one length-$k$ insertion burst attain redundancy $\log_q n+O_{q,k}(1)$ for a single duplication of either type. For every even $k$ and any involutive complement, we show that the two channels are equivalent for every number of errors: the bijection complementing every other coordinate turns each RC duplication into a PAL duplication. This bijection therefore converts any $t$-error-correcting RC code into a PAL code of the same size, and conversely, with linear-time transfer of encoders and decoders. For every even $k$, we also determine the maximum number of descendants of one word under exactly two errors; by the bijection, it is the same for both channels. For fixed even $k$, a direct count using this maximum proves the existence of two-error-correcting PAL and RC codes with redundancy at most $4\log_q n+O_{q,k}(1)$. A known existence bound for two deletion bursts transfers to insertions with the same leading term as ours and a larger additive constant. For two errors, the converse gives $2\log_q n-O_{q,k}(1)$, a factor of two below these existence bounds.

The Minimal Persona: Rarer and Shared Labels Both Skew Allocation Among AI Agents

Messi H. J. Lee

原文摘要

Artificial intelligence (AI) agents built on large language models increasingly work in teams, where one agent divides tasks or resources among others that the software marks with a team, a role or a similar label. A model that simply up-weights any recipient sharing a string with its own context would favor same-label peers, so a shared-label tilt alone says little about groups. Borrowing the minimal-group paradigm of social psychology, we had six language models divide 100 points among 19 peers that differed only in carrying one of two invented words, in groups of unequal size (32,400 decisions). Varying group size separates two effects. In five of the six models, at the most unequal split, a recipient with the rarer label received 1.3 to 3.3 times the points of one with the common label even when the decider was not told its own label: a rarity effect that involves no match to the decider. In four of them it accounts for 35% to 55% of the extra favoritism that agents in the smaller group show their own group, and for more in the fifth. Telling the decider its label adds an own-group effect, positive in every model and in five of the six indistinguishable from label matching. With the labels hidden, neither appears. Because the labels mean nothing, bias tests built on lists of named social groups are not designed to detect either effect.

Decoupling Ego-Motion from Target Dynamics via Dual-Interval Motion Cues for UAV Detection

Liuyang Wang, Feitian Zhang

原文摘要

Object detection from Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) is challenged by severe ego-motion, camera jitter, and large scale variations. While modern detectors perform well on static images, their direct application to UAV video often fails, particularly for small objects in dynamic scenes. Existing motion-based methods often rely on computationally expensive optical flow. We propose a vision-only motion-guided detection framework that decouples target motion from camera-induced disturbances. Homography-based Global Motion Compensation (GMC) first aligns adjacent frames. We then introduce a Dual-Interval Motion Extraction strategy that captures both short-term and long-term motion cues. To integrate these cues, a lightweight Dual-Interval Motion Injection (DIMI) module enhances feature representations within a Feature Pyramid Network. Experiments on the VisDrone-VID dataset demonstrate consistent improvements over the YOLOv8n baseline under severe ego-motion. Ablation studies further confirm the effectiveness of the dual-interval design and DIMI.

Improved Scaling for Fast Mode of Ozaki Scheme II

Shota Kawakami, Daisuke Takahashi

原文摘要

Ozaki scheme II emulates high-precision matrix multiplication using low-precision integer matrix operations based on the Chinese remainder theorem (CRT). It first scales the high-precision matrices to convert them into integer matrices. For this scaling step, Ozaki scheme II provides two modes: accurate mode, which uses INT8 matrix multiplication to estimate scaling factors, and fast mode, which applies the Cauchy--Schwarz inequality at lower computational cost. We show that the existing formula lacks scale invariance; multiplying the input matrices by a constant changes the effective bit width of the integer matrices in the scaling step, causing accuracy degradation or CRT recovery failure. To address this, we propose a revised scaling formula derived from the CRT uniqueness condition via the Cauchy--Schwarz inequality. The proposed formula is scale-invariant by construction, guarantees that the CRT uniqueness condition is always satisfied, and introduces no additional overhead over the original fast mode. Experiments on an NVIDIA GH200 GPU show that the proposed method achieves accuracy comparable to that of accurate mode while maintaining throughput comparable to that of fast mode. In the accuracy--throughput trade-off, the proposed method overcomes the accuracy limitation of fast mode and the throughput constraint of accurate mode, offering a superior accuracy and performance.

Efficient Adaptive Data Analysis over Dense Distributions

Joon Suk Huh

原文摘要

Modern data workflows are inherently adaptive, repeatedly querying the same dataset to refine and validate sequential decisions, but such adaptivity can lead to overfitting and invalid statistical inference. Adaptive Data Analysis (ADA) mechanisms address this challenge; however, there is a fundamental tension between computational efficiency and sample complexity. For $T$ rounds of adaptive analysis, computationally efficient algorithms typically incur suboptimal $O(\sqrt{T})$ sample complexity, whereas for arbitrary distributions, algorithms with $O(\log T)$ sample complexity are computationally intractable under standard cryptographic assumptions. In this work, we shed light on this trade-off by identifying a natural class of data distributions under which both computational efficiency and logarithmic sample complexity in $T$ are achievable. We propose a computationally efficient ADA mechanism that attains $O(\log T)$ sample complexity, optimal in its dependence on $T$, when the data distribution is dense with respect to a known prior. This setting includes, in particular, feature-label data distributions arising in distribution-specific learning. As a consequence, our mechanism also yields a sample-efficient (i.e., $O(\log T)$ samples) statistical query oracle in the distribution-specific setting. Moreover, although our algorithm is not based on differential privacy, it satisfies a relaxed privacy notion known as Predicate Singling Out (PSO) security (Cohen and Nissim 2020) whenever the number of its possible update transcripts is polynomial in the sample size. Our results thus reveal an inherent connection between adaptive data analysis and privacy beyond differential privacy.

Strategy-robust Online Learning in Contextual Pricing

Joon Suk Huh, Kirthevasan Kandasamy

原文摘要

Learning effective pricing strategies is crucial in digital marketplaces, especially when buyers' valuations are unknown and must be inferred through interaction. We study online contextual pricing with sealed bids from multiple recurring buyers. The seller selects an affine pricing policy before observing the current context and competes with the best fixed policy in the same class. Buyers may misreport their values to influence future prices, a challenge known as strategic overfitting (Amin et. al., 2013). We introduce a strategy-robust notion of regret for multi-buyer online environments, capturing worst-case strategic behavior in the spirit of the Price of Anarchy. Our first contribution is a polynomial-time approximation scheme (PTAS) for learning affine pricing policies against arbitrary context-value sequences: for every fixed $ε>0$, it runs in polynomial time and its regret is $O(εT)$ plus a term sublinear in $T$. The scheme is based on an online sketch constructed from past contexts. We then propose the Sparse Update Mechanism (SUM), which learns only from a privately selected subset of rounds and occasionally posts a random price drawn from a finite grid. SUM is a PTAS for strategic regret, and its guarantee holds uniformly over all Nash equilibria. Both schemes use an online expert algorithm as a black box and run in $(T/ε)^{O(ε^{-2})}\mathsf{poly}(d,T,1/ε)$ time. Furthermore, we show that, even with truthful bids, no seller algorithm can achieve regret $\mathsf{poly}(d,1/ε)\,T^z+εT$ with $z<1$ in time $\mathsf{poly}(d,T,1/ε)$ unless $\mathrm{NP}\subseteq\mathrm{BPP}$.

From Pixels to Actions--Towards Native Vision-Language-Action Policies

Weichen Fan, Haiwen Diao, Penghao Wu, Siyuan Hu, Ziqi Huang, Tianqi Liu, Mingze Sun, Ziyi Wang 等 17 位作者

原文摘要

Vision-language-action models are typically built on a simple premise: perception is first compressed by visual encoders, and action reasoning begins only afterwards. Yet manipulation often hinges on precisely the visual signals most vulnerable to this abstraction, e.g., local geometry, boundaries, depth, and subtle state changes. This raises a fundamental question: should action policies inherit a fixed visual endpoint, or directly access evolving visual computation? We introduce NEO-VLA, a structurally encoder-free vision-language-action framework. Images are tokenized by lightweight patch convolutional layers and evolve jointly with language throughout the backbone, allowing a flow-matching action expert to draw from instruction-conditioned visual representations at different depths. This simple change reveals a consistent pattern. Native architectures outperform encoder-based counterparts under controlled comparisons; full fine-tuning reduces but does not erase the gap, and additional scale alone cannot recover it. More strikingly, layer-wise probing shows that the action-critical signals often peak well before the final visual representation. Across diverse manipulation settings and distribution shifts, NEO-VLA consequently achieves stronger and more robust control. Together, these results suggest that embodied control benefits from access to visual representations across the computational hierarchy, rather than a fixed encoder output.

Better Protein Function Prediction by Modeling Survivorship Bias

Zhongmou Chao, Poompol Buathong, Ekaterina Selivanovitch, Susan Daniel, Peter I. Frazier

原文摘要

Predicting whether a protein sequence possesses a biochemical property of interest is important for understanding and designing protein functionality. Modern protein sequence databases provide valuable training data for functional prediction, but they exhibit survivorship bias: natural selection favors variants that support organismal survival while eliminating many others before they can be observed, complicating classifier training. This setting motivates positive-unlabeled (PU) learning, which treats observed functional sequences as positive and unobserved sequences as unlabeled rather than nonfunctional. However, existing protein PU methods do not account for cross-sequence heterogeneity in evolutionary accessibility: sequences one nucleotide mutation away from a common variant arise far more readily than distant ones. We introduce PULSE: PU Learning with Surveillance and Evolution, a framework that trains a probabilistic classifier for a target protein function using an evolution-aware observation likelihood. When considering functionality of proteins with high genomic sequence coverage, PULSE combines a probabilistic classifier that estimates whether an amino acid sequence performs the target function with an evolutionary model that estimates the likelihood that its encoding nucleotide sequences emerge and are detected based on mutational accessibility, parental prevalence, and surveillance e!ciency. By coupling these two components, PULSE treats the absence of an evolutionarily accessible sequence as stronger evidence of non-functionality than the absence of one unlikely to arise. Tested on eleven tasks focusing on multiple Spike protein properties spanning five SARS-CoV-2 variants, PULSE ranks first or second on all of them, and achieves the best overall performance among all methods, including standard PU learning, one-class classification methods, and protein language models.

MJ: Multi-turn LLM Jailbreaking via Decomposed Credit Assignment

Junyoung Park, Namgyu Park, Sechan Lee, Yoon-Chan Jhi, Jihoon Cho, Sangdon Park

原文摘要

Modern large language models (LLMs) operate in interactive multi-turn settings, making multi-turn jailbreaking a realistic threat model and an important setting for automated red teaming. A core challenge in learning multi-turn jailbreak attackers is credit assignment: different turns contribute differently to the final outcome, yet existing learning signals are often too coarse to identify their individual contributions. We propose decomposed credit GRPO (DC-GRPO), a unified turn-level credit assignment framework for Group Relative Policy Optimization in multi-turn jailbreak learning. DC-GRPO assigns a separate group-relative learning signal to each turn by combining immediate and future credit, avoiding the credit misassignment induced by broadcasting a single trajectory-level score across the dialogue. We instantiate this framework with static and dynamic weighting rules that differ in how the two credit sources are balanced while sharing the same turn-level structure. Across four victim LLMs and three benchmarks, DC-GRPO achieves up to 98.26% average ASR_5@3, substantially outperforming the state-of-the-art methods, including SEMA (86.58%) and TROJail (86.23%), demonstrating the effectiveness of our turn-level group-relative credit assignment. Warning: This paper contains examples of harmful content.

GAE Falls Short in Imperfect-Information Self-Play Reinforcement Learning

Zhiyuan Fan, Gabriele Farina

原文摘要

Competitive multi-agent reinforcement learning in imperfect-information games requires agents to act under partial observability and against adversarial opponents, necessitating stochastic policies. While self-play reinforcement learning with Proximal Policy Optimization (PPO) has achieved strong empirical success, its standard advantage estimator, generalized advantage estimation, suffers from additional variance due to the sampling of stochastic future actions. This variance is amplified in equilibrium self-play because of the stochastic nature of the equilibrium policy and persists even when the critic is exact. We address this bottleneck by introducing $Q$-boosting, a variance-reduced advantage estimator based on a centralized action-value critic, and propose Variance-Reduced Policy Optimization (VRPO), incorporating this new estimator. The algorithm replaces sampled multi-step backups with a multi-step Expected SARSA$(λ)$ trace, computing policy expectations at each step to average out action-sampling noise, while retaining PPO's clipped objective and on-policy actor updates. Empirically, VRPO achieves strong performance in various games: In mid-sized games where exploitability is computable, VRPO lowers the exact exploitability by more than 15% compared to tuned baselines. In Dou Dizhu, it sets a new state of the art over PerfectDou. In Heads-Up No-Limit Texas Hold'em, it posts a positive win rate against Slumbot without any blueprint raise sizes, search, or subgame solving at test time.

UDT: Reconciling U-Nets and Diffusion Transformers with Data-Adaptive Token Reduction

Junno Yun, Yaşar Utku Alçalar, Mehmet Akçakaya

原文摘要

Diffusion Transformers (DiTs) have emerged as a core architecture in generative modeling due to their scalability and adaptability to multimodal tasks. DiTs comprise isotropic transformer blocks, and learn representations progressively across depth, where the denoising objective drives later layers to focus on fine-detail reconstruction. This results in degraded representation quality and an imbalanced encoder-decoder behavior. Prior approaches such as representation alignment (REPA) mitigate this by encouraging stronger early representations via training regularization. Alternatively, U-Net-style DiT architectures introduce explicit multi-scale encoder-decoder structures for improved convergence. But they build on standard U-Net wisdom via learnable operators for spatial downsampling, which are not well-suited to transformer architectures, introducing inefficiencies and compatibility issues with components such as cross-attention and representation regularization. In this work, we propose UDT, a U-Net diffusion transformer that combines the representation power of DiTs with the encoding-decoding benefits of U-Nets, through data-adaptive token merging for downsampling and upsampling, while preserving the DiT token dimension. Our baseline UDT architecture outperforms existing U-Net DiTs and achieves performance comparable to REPA across all model sizes. Furthermore, using architectural optimization and REPA, UDT outperforms SiT's 7.9 FID at 1400 epochs (w/o CFG) within 40 epochs (~ 40x faster convergence) for XL model size on 256x256 ImageNet. Finally, it achieves strong image generation performance with CFG, reaching FID of 1.38 (320 epochs) with SD-VAE and 1.35 (500 epochs) with VA-VAE, providing a new backbone for DiTs with strong empirical benefits.

Beyond Uniform Restoration: Empowering All-in-One Restoration with Pixel-Level Multimodal Guidance

Chunxiao Liu, Wei Liu, Anbin Xiong, Erli Meng

原文摘要

All-in-one image restoration is a unified low-level vision task that aims to effectively recover high-quality images from inputs degraded by various types and levels of corruption using a single model. Recent works have achieved remarkable progress by learning degradation-adaptive prompts or network architectures. However, these methods typically apply a uniform restoration strategy across the entire image, neglecting the fact that different regions may suffer from distinct degradation types and varying degrees of severity. In contrast, we propose to perform restoration at the pixel level, thereby enabling more fine-grained and precise control over the restoration process. Specifically, we present MGN-AIR, a novel pixel-level restoration framework for all-in-one image restoration. Our approach first learns to estimate a pixel-level visual prompt. Then, it leverages both textual and visual prompts to provide global and local degradation cues, guiding the model on where to look and how to restore at each pixel. We conduct extensive experiments on multiple all-in-one image restoration benchmarks, covering a wide range of tasks including denoising, deraining, deblurring, dehazing, desnowing, and low-light enhancement. Experimental results demonstrate that our proposed method consistently and significantly outperforms existing approaches.

Bird-Inspired Spatial Flapping Wing Mechanism via Coupled Linkages with Single Actuator

Daniel Huczala, Sun-Pill Jung, Frank C. Park

原文摘要

Spatial single-loop mechanisms such as Bennett linkages offer a unique combination of one-degree-of-freedom actuation and nontrivial spatial trajectories, making them attractive for lightweight bio-inspired robotic design. However, existing synthesis methods rely on dual quaternion algebra and rational motion interpolation and factorization, placing task-based linkage design outside the reach of most engineers, a gap addressed by the Rational Linkages library recently developed by the authors. This paper presents a bird-inspired flapping-wing mechanism built from two coupled spatial four-bars, driven by a single motor. One linkage is actuated to generate the desired spatial sweeping stroke, while the serially coupled linkage remains unactuated and passively switches between extended and folded wing configurations over the stroke cycle. Additionally, we introduce a simplified kinematic methodology for constructing Bennett linkages from quadrilaterals that contain a desired surface area and further leverage mechanically induced passive state switching. This architecture realizes a coordinated sweep-and-fold wing motion with a single actuation input, reducing weight and control complexity. A 3D-printed prototype is assembled and tested, demonstrating the intended spatial stroke and passive folding behavior.

ContraSafe-VL: A Contrastive Safety Preference Dataset for Vision-Language Models

Di Wu, Yanyan Zhao, Xin Lu, Hao Yang, Taotao Zhang, Yunzhen Zhao

原文摘要

Vision-Language Models (VLMs) are increasingly deployed as general-purpose multimodal assistants, making multimodal safety alignment an important challenge. Safety depends on the interplay between textual and visual content, with visual context often playing a critical role. However, VLMs may fail to use visual information appropriately, either overlooking safety-relevant visual content or over-interpreting sensitive visual content, leading to unsafe responses or over-refusal. Existing multimodal safety alignment datasets largely follow the response-preference paradigm, which teaches models how to respond but provides limited supervision on how visual context should inform the safety judgment, making it difficult to balance safety and over-refusal. To address this limitation, we introduce \textbf{ContraSafe-VL}, a \textbf{Contra}stive \textbf{Safe}ty preference dataset for \textbf{V}ision-\textbf{L}anguage Models. For each fixed textual query, ContraSafe-VL constructs paired visual contexts that result in multimodal queries with different safety labels, providing direct supervision for how visual context should inform multimodal safety judgments. It further provides response preference pairs based on harmlessness and helpfulness to encourage models to generate responses that are both safe and helpful. Experiments across three VLM architectures and multiple benchmarks demonstrate that training with ContraSafe-VL improves cross-modal safety recognition and achieves a better safety--over-refusal trade-off while preserving general multimodal capabilities. The dataset is available at https://github.com/pikepokenew/ContraSafe-VL

HANSEL: Interactive Evidence for Post-Hoc Verification of Web Agents

Yujin Zhang, Yeonju Hwang, Daye Nam

原文摘要

AI web agents can perform complex tasks, such as searching for products and making purchases on users' behalf. However, verifying an agent's output remains difficult, because existing transparency mechanisms (e.g., full trajectory logs) require users to review logs and explanations, keeping verification a passive reading task. In this work, we view agent verification as an interactive activity and present HANSEL. Given an agent trajectory, HANSEL extracts evidence pages and snippets and presents them as navigable, live views that preserve relevant page state (e.g., applied filters), allowing users to verify how the agent arrived at its answer through interaction. In a controlled user study with 14 participants, we show that HANSEL significantly reduces task completion time and perceived effort, demonstrating that reframing verification as an interactive activity enables more efficient post-hoc verification of AI agents.

AIM: Adaptive Interaction in Multi-Agent Debate for Multimodal LLM Inference

Wei Fan, JinYi Yoon, Bo Ji

原文摘要

Multi-Agent Debate (MAD) improves reasoning on multimodal tasks, but its accuracy and token efficiency depend on how agents interact during debate. A largely overlooked design choice is which interaction modalities agents use to exchange evidence. Existing methods rely on fixed text- or graph-based interaction, which fails to convey fine-grained multimodal evidence and thus degrades accuracy while inflating token cost due to verbose descriptions. To address this, we propose Adaptive Interaction in Multi-Agent Debate (AIM), an adaptive routing framework that dynamically selects the optimal modality combination for inter-agent interaction in multimodal MAD. Beyond text and graph, AIM introduces task-dependent modality interaction, where agents exchange targeted regions of interest from the task-specific multimodal input, such as image regions, audio segments, or spatio-temporal video clips. To determine the best combination for each instance, AIM first generates a structured baseline response and extracts interpretable routing features that capture which evidence the instance requires, how confident the baseline agent is, and how much new evidence each modality would add beyond the baseline response. A lightweight router then uses these routing features to select a modality combination that avoids both under-fusion (i.e., agents miss decisive evidence) and over-fusion (i.e., redundant modalities inflate token cost) risks. Across eight benchmarks spanning three multimodal task families, AIM achieves the highest accuracy. Combining modalities improves accuracy by up to 6.4% over the best single-modality baseline, and adapting the combination per instance adds up to 4.2% over the most accurate fixed combination of each benchmark with up to 53.4% fewer tokens.

Enforcing Demographic Coherence: A Harms Aware Framework for Reasoning about Private Data Release

Mark Bun, Marco Carmosino, Palak Jain, Gabriel Kaptchuk, Satchit Sivakumar

原文摘要

The technical literature about data privacy largely consists of two complementary approaches: formal definitions of conditions sufficient for privacy preservation and attacks that demonstrate privacy breaches. Differential privacy is an accepted standard in the former sphere. However, differential privacy's powerful adversarial model and worst-case guarantees may make it too stringent in some situations, especially when achieving it comes at a significant cost to data utility. Meanwhile, privacy attacks aim to expose real and worrying privacy risks associated with existing data release processes but often face criticism for being unrealistic. Moreover, the literature on attacks generally does not identify what properties are necessary to defend against them. We address the gap between these approaches by introducing demographic coherence, a condition inspired by privacy attacks that we argue is necessary for data privacy. This condition captures privacy violations arising from inferences about individuals that are incoherent with respect to the demographic patterns in the data. Our framework focuses on confidence rated predictors, which can in turn be distilled from almost any data-informed process. Thus, we capture privacy threats that exist even when no attack is explicitly being carried out. Our framework not only provides a condition with respect to which data release algorithms can be analysed but suggests natural experimental evaluation methodologies that could be used to build practical intuition and make tangible assessment of risks. Finally, we argue that demographic coherence is weaker than differential privacy: we prove that every differentially private data release is also demographically coherent, and that there are demographically coherent algorithms which are not differentially private.

Automating structural reliability analysis with a multi-agent large language model framework

Jaehwan Jeon, Chang Hee Lee, Jinhyun Choo, Taeyong Kim

原文摘要

Structural reliability analysis supports the design and safety assessment of buildings and civil infrastructure but requires specialized expertise throughout the workflow. This study presents a multi-agent large language model (LLM) framework that automates component-level reliability analysis from a natural-language problem statement to interpreted estimates of the reliability index and failure probability. Specialized agents handle problem formulation, method planning, code generation, execution, and result interpretation, with human confirmation at key decision points. Numerical reliability estimates are not generated by an LLM; instead, they are obtained solely through deterministic execution of validated solvers. This design mitigates the risk of hallucinated numerical outputs and supports reproducibility. The Method Planner is fine-tuned using quantized low-rank adaptation (QLoRA) for a priori reliability-method category selection. The framework uses open-weight models and supports local execution without closed APIs. Results show that it lowers the expertise barrier to structural reliability assessment while preserving computational trustworthiness.

KG-Neighbor: Knowledge-Guided Neighborhood Construction for Embedding Visualization

Chang Won Kim, Jaewook Lee, Haeun Min, JunNyeong Jeong, Minwoo Sim, Barom Kang, Kyohoon Jin

原文摘要

In embedding visualizations, nearby instances are interpreted as semantically related, although neighborhoods derived from input embeddings may not reflect content relationships. Neighborhood-based dimensionality reduction (DR) methods can propagate this limitation by optimizing layouts from embedding-based neighborhood graphs. We propose Knowledge-Guided Neighborhood Graph Construction (KGN), which represents relational knowledge derived from each instance as a set of knowledge graph (KG) triples. It uses the degree of triple sharing as pairwise semantic evidence to adjust embedding distances and reconstruct the top-k neighborhood graph; neither KG extraction nor neighborhood construction uses class labels. We also introduce IDProfile (IDP), which interprets residual mismatches by independently assessing whether the source content supports the assigned class label and the neighborhood-majority class. Across eight text and image dataset-encoder conditions, we characterize KGN over the full guidance-strength sweep and four KG similarity measures. Across this sweep, the maximum NMI and LT_2D each exceed the corresponding kNN baseline in all eight conditions, with the largest gains reaching 0.68 and 1.35, respectively. The gains and the extent of neighborhood reconfiguration vary across conditions and are larger under encoder conditions with lower kNN baseline scores. The IDP analysis shows that the largest reductions are concentrated in Placement Issue candidates, whereas Label Issue and Unresolved Case instances account for a larger share of the remaining review set. These results indicate that KGN can narrow the evaluated gap between embedding-based neighborhoods and content-supported semantic relations, while IDP shows that a residual mismatch should not automatically be interpreted as a projection failure.

TryOnCrafter: Unleashing Camera Trajectories for Realistic Video Virtual Try-on via a Renderable 4D Try-on Proxy

Hao Sun, Hao Yan, Mengting Chen, Quanjian Song, Yu Li, Juan Cao, Jinsong Lan, Xiaoyong Zhu 等 10 位作者

原文摘要

While Video Virtual Try-on (VVT) has achieved remarkable progress in synthesizing realistic garment overlays on dynamic subjects, existing paradigms remains fundamentally constrained by a passive dependency on source camera trajectories, failing to accommodate the requisite interactive freedom for omnidirectional viewpoint exploration. To address this limitation, we define a pioneering research frontier: Camera-controllable Video Virtual Try-on (CaM-VVT). Unlike conventional VVT, CaM-VVT not only necessitates viewpoint-agnostic texture hallucination but also strict structural synchronization between non-rigid human dynamics and background contexts under arbitrary, unconstrained camera movements. To tackle these challenges, we present TryOnCrafter, the first unified DiT-based framework specifically architected for the CaM-VVT task. Departing from implicit pixel-space manipulation, we introduce a Renderable 4D Try-on Proxy that explicitly decouples the human subject from the environment. This is achieved by distilling high-fidelity 2D try-on priors into a clothed 3DGS-based avatar, which is subsequently animated via SMPL-X sequences and metric-aligned into a reconstructed background point cloud. This proxy establishes a robust structural foundation with superior texture density and motion integrity. Our Proxy-Anchored Video DiT leverages this robust structural foundation as a primary geometric anchor, ensuring that the synthesized photorealistic videos are strictly constrained by prescribed trajectories and physically plausible deformations. Benefiting from the inherent editability of the 4D proxy, TryOnCrafter facilitates diverse downstream applications, including human relocalization, ``bullet time'' effects, and $360$-degree orbital viewing.

Structure is in the zoom: probing neural symmetry through dimensionality scaling

Adil Amin

原文摘要

Scaling exponents of neural dimensionality are read as properties of the code, and used to compare representations and benchmark models against cortex. Yet one recording of 11,311 mouse V1 neurons gives 0.25, 0.30 or 0.35, depending only on how it is subsampled. We show that such an exponent measures the population and the probe together. We split it exactly into a floor, which random subsets of the same sizes give, and a shift, which a declared axis of stimulus classes adds. The usual random-subsample exponent is almost all floor. Stimulus direction lifts the exponent in every grating recording by reading both symmetry sectors of the code: orientation, which repeats every half turn, and direction, which does not. The lift lives in trial-to-trial fluctuations that differ between directions, while the class means, which linear decoders read, pull it down. Two measured terms, how much the classes' fluctuations overlap and how the means sit against them, account for the shift. They give its sign where it changes: in Allen Neuropixels recordings, whose class means mostly raise the exponent, and in macaque V1. In an XY lattice whose classes stay on one orbit, temperature flips the sign as the two terms say, and in GPT-2 the shift ranks the indirect-object circuit's name-mover and backup heads. Reported with its path, its floor and its shift, an exponent says how much structure a probe finds and what carries it. Our open tool, rung, reports all three for any labelled neural recording or language-model layer: https://github.com/adilamin89/structure-in-the-zoom

CaLR: Causal Latent Revision for Robust Diffusion Reasoning

Wei Cai, Jian Zhao, Yuchen Yuan, Xuelong Li

原文摘要

Autoregressive (AR) models suffer from local greediness, while diffusion language models (DLMs) often lack the strict causal structure required for reasoning. To combine the advantages and overcome the drawbacks of the dual, we propose Causal Latent Revision (CaLR), a framework that reformulates reasoning as constrained latent optimization. By adopting a causal topology matrix (CTM) from an expert model and implicit differentiation, CaLR performs gradient-guided ``thought revision" to enforce logical consistency, enabling dynamic self-correction of intermediate steps during parallel generation. Empirically, CaLR achieves SOTA DLM performance on complex benchmarks, surpassing strong AR baselines and demonstrating superior robustness in constrained tasks like Sudoku.

DreamTrue: Action-Faithful Robot World Model with Counterfactual Post-Training

Junyan Li, Ruizhi Li, Yu Liu, Xiangshuo Liu, Mingchao Sun, Hongyu Pan, Mu Xu, Lue Fan 等 9 位作者

原文摘要

We present DreamTrue, a multi-view, cross-embodiment robot world model for action-faithful and physically plausible video prediction. Training such a model on existing robot datasets faces two obstacles: imprecise calibration can impair action following, while limited coverage of unsuccessful interactions can bias predictions toward successful outcomes. To improve action following across embodiments, we render action trajectories into image-space conditions and introduce offline geometric calibration to align these conditions with the target videos. To broaden interaction coverage, we introduce counterfactual post-training, modifying recorded action trajectories and generating future videos under a wider range of actions and contact configurations. To provide feedback on these predictions without paired ground-truth futures, we construct a human-annotated video dataset covering robot, object, and interaction defects and use it to train an embodied video reward model. Its scores guide reinforcement-learning post-training toward more physically plausible interaction outcomes. On AgiBot, DreamTrue attains state-of-the-art action following, while reducing the human-assessed interaction defect rate from from 48.12% to 6.25%. Notably, our model ranks first in the world model track of the AgiBot World Challenge 2026. The project page can be found at https://brave-eai.github.io/DreamTrue.

Counting Hypertriangles through Hypergraph Orientations

Daniel Paul-Pena, Vaishali Surianarayanan, Deeparnab Chakrabarty, C. Seshadhri

原文摘要

Counting the number of small patterns is a central task in network analysis. While this problem is well studied for graphs, many real-world datasets are naturally modeled as hypergraphs, motivating the need for efficient hypergraph motif counting algorithms. In particular, we study the problem of counting hypertriangles - collections of three pairwise-intersecting hyperedges. These hypergraph patterns have a rich structure with multiple distinct intersection patterns unlike graph triangles. Inspired by classical graph algorithms based on orientations and degeneracy, we develop a new theoretical framework that generalizes these concepts to hypergraphs and yields provable algorithms for hypertriangle counting. We implement these ideas in DITCH (Degeneracy Inspired Triangle Counter for Hypergraphs) and show experimentally that it is faster on all but one small instance, achieving speedups of up to 100x, and is 6-100x more memory-efficient than existing state-of-the-art methods.

Spectral Complex Autoencoder Pruning: A Fidelity-Guided Criterion for Extreme Structured Channel Compression

Wei Liu, Xing Deng, Haijian Shao, Yingtao Jiang

原文摘要

We propose Spectral Complex Autoencoder Pruning (SCAP), a reconstruction-based criterion that measures functional redundancy at the level of individual output channels. For each convolutional layer, we construct a complex interaction field by pairing the full multi-channel input activation as the real part with a single output-channel activation (spatially aligned and broadcast across input channels) as the imaginary part. We transform this complex field to the frequency domain and train a low-capacity autoencoder to reconstruct normalized spectra. Channels whose spectra are reconstructed with high fidelity are interpreted as lying close to a low-dimensional manifold captured by the autoencoder and are therefore more compressible; conversely, channels with low fidelity are retained as they encode information that cannot be compactly represented by the learned manifold. This yields an importance score (optionally fused with the filter L1 norm) that supports simple threshold-based pruning and produces a structurally consistent pruned network. On VGG16 trained on CIFAR-10, at a fixed threshold of 0.6, we obtain 90.11% FLOP reduction and 96.30% parameter reduction with an absolute Top-1 accuracy drop of 1.67% from a 93.44% baseline after fine-tuning, demonstrating that spectral reconstruction fidelity of complex interaction fields is an effective proxy for channel-level redundancy under aggressive compression.

TauLang: A Language and Compiler for Space-Time Programming on Statically Scheduled Accelerators

Xuxiao Yang, Junchi Wu, Yuqi Peng, Feiyang Wu, Zhuoran Li, Wei Kong, Shuo Tao, Dongyi Fan 等 14 位作者

原文摘要

Statically scheduled accelerators such as Groq's Tensor Streaming Processor (TSP) achieve low-latency large language model inference by stripping dynamic synchronization hardware from the chip. With no caches, arbiters, or hardware schedulers, the compiler must fix the exact slice and issue cycle of every operation, so when an operation runs is a condition for correctness. Existing kernel languages cannot target such machines because they rely on hardware to resolve cycle timing and instead encode schedules implicitly in code structure. We present TauLang, a kernel language and compiler that makes time a first-class citizen of the program. The programmer schedules operations, loops, and composed kernels with parameterized explicit times, so exploring schedules means changing parameter values rather than rewriting code. TauLang validates explicit times algebraically in TauIR, its timed intermediate representation. It then solves tensor placement and cycle scheduling jointly in an integer linear program, using explicit times to group connected operations into timing clusters that prune the search space. On a cycleaccurate model of a TSP-like machine, joint search achieves a $1.40\times$ latency speedup across ten kernels over a space-first flow. A few explicit time pins keep latency within one cycle of the untimed schedules and scale joint search to 1,636 GEMM blocks, whereas untimed search finds no schedule at 32.

FiLM-CAM: Keyed Feature Modulation for Conditional-Access Watermarking

Yash Kulthe, Shruti Agarwal, Vishal Asnani, Andrew Gilbert, John Collomosse

原文摘要

We propose FiLM-CAM; a conditional-access image watermarking approach that enforces authorized encoding, decoding, and removal through keyed feature modulation. A secret key conditions a Feature-wise Linear Modulation (FiLM) mechanism that transforms the internal representation of the watermark signal before embedding, thereby coupling the payload to the key at the feature, rather than pixel level. The same key must be presented to condition the decoder to correctly recover the payload embedded in an image. To enforce conditional access, we train the system to maximize the performance gap between authorized and unauthorized use, ensuring reliable extraction under the correct key while inducing failure under incorrect keys. In addition, we design our encoder to estimate the watermark residual invariant to the presence of pre-existing watermarks. This design enables conditional watermark removal via simple re-encoding and subtraction of the residual using iterative refinement, contingent on knowledge of the secret key. We evaluate FiLM-CAM across multiple watermarking encoder-decoder backbones, demonstrating that keyed feature modulation serves as an effective, architecture-agnostic conditional access module (CAM) for image watermarking.

Pause and Reflect: Conformal Aggregation for Chain-of-Thought Reasoning

Yu Gu, Zijun Yu, Vahid Partovi Nia, Masoud Asgharian

原文摘要

Chain-of-thought (CoT) reasoning with self-consistency improves performance by aggregating multiple sampled reasoning paths. In this setting, correctness is no longer tied to a single reasoning trace but to the aggregation rule over a pool of candidate paths, making aggregation uncertainty the central challenge. This issue is critical where confidently incorrect answers are far more costly than abstentions. We introduce a conformal procedure for CoT reasoning that directly addresses aggregation uncertainty. Our approach replaces majority voting with weighted score aggregation over reasoning paths and calibrates an abstention rule using conformal risk control. This approach leads to finite-sample guarantees on the confident-error rate--the probability that the system answers and is wrong. We further identify score separability as the key condition under which abstention provably improves selective accuracy, and derive closed-form expressions that predict accuracy gains from calibration data alone. The method is fully inference-time, and requires no retraining. Across four benchmarks, four open-source models, and three score classes, realized confident-error rates are consistent with the prescribed targets up to calibration-split and test-set variability. Our method achieves $90.1\%$ selective accuracy on GSM8K by abstaining on fewer than $5\%$ of problems, compared with $82.3\%$ accuracy under majority voting and $87.4\%$ under score-weighted voting without abstention, while conformal risk control keeps the expected rate of confidently wrong answers below $10\%$.

Learning Theory of Transformers: Local-to-Global Approximation via Softmax Partition of Unity

Zhongjie Shi, Wenjing Liao

原文摘要

This paper investigates the learning theory of Transformer networks for regression tasks on the compact Euclidean domain $[0,1]^d$ and $d$-dimensional compact Riemannian manifolds. We propose a novel constructive approximation framework for Transformers that builds local approximations of the target function and aggregates them into a global approximation via softmax partition of unity (POU). This approach leverages the attention mechanism to achieve spatial localization through affine transformations of the input. The softmax activation plays a crucial role in aggregating local approximations to a global output. From an approximation perspective, we prove that a dense Transformer equipped with only two encoder blocks and standard single-hidden-layer point-wise feed-forward networks can achieve a uniform $\varepsilon$-approximation error for $α$-Hölder continuous functions with $α\in (0,1]$ using $\mathcal{O}(\varepsilon^{-d/α})$ total parameters. Building upon this approximation guarantee, we establish a near minimax-optimal generalization error bound of order $\mathcal{O}\big(n^{-\frac{2α}{2α+d}} \log n\big)$ for the empirical risk minimizer, where $n$ is the training data size. The Transformer architecture studied in this paper uses native softmax attention and sinusoidal positional encodings, with a fixed depth of two encoder blocks. Finally, numerical experiments reveal spatially localized, Gaussian-like attention weights that emerge during training, resembling our Softmax POU weights.
