Mission-adaptive low-Earth-orbit (LEO) satellite networks with integrated sensing and communication (ISAC) must retarget radio resources as operator goals change. To enable this adaptation from flexible operator language, we develop a generative-AI-enabled radio-orchestration framework in which a large language model (LLM) maps each...
Federated Learning (FL) enables distributed training of machine learning models while preserving data privacy. However, FL struggles with heterogeneous, non-IID client data distributions, resulting in sub-optimal and biased global models. In this paper, we propose pFedMARL, a novel approach leveraging Multi-Agent Reinforcement...
Predictive models are widely used in many fields, but are vulnerable to false data injection attacks. To address this, detection schemes and adversarial training have been proposed, but such approaches lack guarantees against stealthy attacks. We therefore propose a detector-based switched model, in which optimal attack strategies are...
This paper investigates joint beamforming and port selection in multi-cell fluid antenna-assisted (FAS) networks. In such networks, active beamforming and discrete FA port selection are coupled through intra-cell and inter-cell interference and are jointly optimized to maximize the weighted sum-rate (WSR). We develop a federated...
Industrial aerial robotics demands safety guarantees for navigation in unstructured environments while optimizing performance and computational efficiency. This paper presents a method for generating safe pose trajectories for fully actuated multirotors within a Model Predictive Control (MPC) framework, leveraging both viability...
In this study, we construct the first orthogonal basis for additively consistent subspace in pairwise comparisons theory. This construction is based on our representation of additively consistent best approximations of skew-symmetric matrices with respect to a tensor basis having minimal support. The orthogonal basis establishes the...
Detailed multicellular growth simulations based on subcellular element models (SEMs) can capture complex tissue development, but their element-level interactions impose substantial computational cost. This work presents a scalable multi-GPU framework for 3D multicellular growth simulation that combines GPU acceleration, spatial...
Driver behavior is heterogeneous, context-dependent, and changes over time, and these properties shape the traffic phenomena we observe. Most models, however, fix in advance which behavioral variables interact and how. Behavior outside that form is absorbed as noise, while models flexible enough to capture it tend to lose...
Kolmogorov-Arnold Networks (KANs) replace fixed activations in deep architectures with learnable univariate edge functions, making the choice of edge parametrisation central. Existing variants rely on fixed bases such as splines, polynomials, or Fourier features, which impose a function-space geometry before data are observed. We...
A key result in statistics is the data processing inequality, originally proved by Blackwell (1951) and later refined by DeGroot (1962) in terms of statistical uncertainty. It states that the Bayes risk of a statistical experiment obtained by stochastically modifying another experiment cannot be lower than the Bayes risk of the...
Stochastic gradient descent (SGD) is typically analyzed at a deterministic horizon chosen before the algorithm is run, even though practical stopping decisions are made adaptively by inspecting the evolving trajectory. This mismatch creates a fundamental certification problem: fixed-time guarantees do not generally remain valid at...
We analyze exact-metric, Metropolis-adjusted Dikin walks by keeping the proposal determinant and reverse quadratic form together. Their leading uncentered terms cancel in the complete logarithmic acceptance ratio, leaving centered fluctuations that can be controlled with second-order tools. For a polytope given by $n$ inequalities and...
Medical image foundation models can predict clinical phenotypes from computed tomography (CT), but strong performance leaves open whether they read disease-specific findings or shortcuts that correlate with the diagnosis. We tested this in 221 electronic-health-record (EHR) phenotypes using Auditable CT phenotyping (ACT), built on...
The rapid advancement of Large Language Models (LLMs) makes it increasingly difficult to distinguish human writing from machine-generated text. Training-free detection offers a scalable solution, yet common confidence-based metrics mainly measure average token probabilities and often miss the signal fluctuations that characterize...
Discord is one of the most popular communication platforms among gamers. While prior research has highlighted its role in community building, relatively little attention has been paid to its original gaming context-how it shapes gameplay and social experiences. To address this gap, we conducted semi-structured interviews with 16...
Sparse autoencoders (SAEs) are widely used to interpret the internal representations of large language models (LLMs), yet their reliability under post-hoc model compression remains poorly understood. We present a systematic study of how pruning affects SAE behavior and theoretically show that, for a fixed SAE, its impact is governed...
Physical AI models are evaluated on suites of benchmarks that differ across model reports, leaving the model-by-benchmark matrix sparse and the relationship between benchmarks unmeasured. We construct a matrix of 51 models on 12 physical AI benchmarks, selected from a registry of 51 benchmarks and 152 models by reporting density,...
Large language models (LLMs) have shown promise for automated unit test generation, but existing evaluations largely rely on standalone settings and a narrow set of programming languages, overestimating real-world readiness. We introduce XREPOTEST, a multilingual repository-level benchmark for unit test generation spanning five...
Multi-agent systems (MAS) sometimes already have the potential to answer correctly, but still report a wrong answer. Explaining this outcome is difficult because generation, communication and final answer-selection rules usually change simultaneously. We conceptualize multi-agent reasoning as an evolutionary pipeline of candidate...
On-policy distillation trains a language model on its own generations while a teacher scores them token by token. It combines the dense supervision of imitation learning with the on-policy sampling of reinforcement learning. But it requires a second, larger model to act as teacher. On-Policy Self-Distillation (OPSD) removes that cost....
Traffic Anomaly Understanding (TAU) requires models and systems to detect, reason about, and explain anomalous events in transportation videos. To address this challenge, we propose TAU-Agent, an agentic retrieval-augmented framework for traffic anomaly understanding. Given a task query, a central retrieval agent orchestrates two...
Automated fact-checking (AFC) systems retrieve evidence and predict claim veracity, yet evaluations omit simple baselines, systems are developed for a single benchmark and cannot be trusted to generalise across domains. No prior work cross-evaluates the full two-stage retrieve-then-verify pipeline across diverse datasets,...
*Chulin Zhao and Ruoqi Hu contributed equally to this work. State-of-the-art text-to-image (T2I) models exhibit pronounced and systematic defects when prompts involve intricate compositional factors such as multiple entities and multiple attributes. In this paper, we investigate how humans identify such defects. Specifically, we...
Agentic systems enable the intelligent automation of complex workflows, specific to additive manufacturing this is applicable for complex tasks such as process parameter optimization for mechanical properties. This work investigates the AI enabled agentic process optimization within Selective Laser Sintering (SLS) to iteratively...
World models aim to simulate how complex environments evolve under actions and events, yet existing video-based world models primarily learn dynamics from visual observations, which reveal outcomes rather than the underlying knowledge, rules, and mechanisms governing world evolution. This makes it difficult to maintain persistent...
