arXiv:2304. 11171v5 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: To overcome the limitations of point-based inputs, overly fine computation and limited adaptability in existing artificial intelligence methods, Guoyin Wang and Shuyin Xia proposed granular-ball computing as a new artificial intelligence learning paradigm.

arXiv:2605. 22410v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Spectral clustering largely depends on the affinity graph, yet constructing a graph that preserves reliable local connectivity while adapting to heterogeneous data structures remains challenging.

arXiv:2608. 12903v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The $k$-Nearest Neighbor~(KNN) algorithm is widely used across various tasks.

arXiv:2607. 02266v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Most data-mixing methods assume the corpus has already been partitioned into groups, and the choice of those groups determines what a mixer can express.

arXiv:2606. 05230v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Selecting a clustering algorithm and its hyperparameters without labels is a common difficulty in engineering machine learning pipelines that work with unsupervised analysis of sensor, image, or process data.

arXiv:2606. 01682v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Selecting the best response from multiple small-model samples using a stronger scorer is a simple inference-time strategy, but fails when the small model has already committed to incorrect reasoning paths.

arXiv:2607. 29431v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language models increasingly generate optimization models from natural language, but existing evaluation often reduces a generated model and its ground truth to a single equivalent/not-equivalent verdict or an execution-success rate--labels that are neither independently checkable nor faithful to the multiple distinct senses in which two formulations can agree.

arXiv:2510. 12744v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We develop a unified statistical framework for softmax-gated Gaussian mixture of experts (SGMoE) that addresses three long-standing obstacles in parameter estimation and model selection: (i) non-identifiability of gating parameters up to common translations, (ii) intrinsic gate-expert interactions that induce coupled differential relations in the likelihood, and (iii) the tight numerator-denominator coupling in the softmax-induced conditional density.

arXiv:2607. 09739v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We study LLM benchmark coreset selection: selecting a small subset of prompts over multiple benchmarks whose induced model scores and rankings approximate those obtained from the full benchmark suite.

arXiv:2607. 26448v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: A known limitation of long-context language models is their increasingly unreliable performance in non-additive, set-based aggregation as context length grows.

arXiv:2604. 23083v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Generative approaches to clustering provide information on geometric properties of clusters, whereas discriminative approaches provide boundaries between clusters.

Selecting the best response from multiple small-model samples using a stronger scorer is a simple inference-time strategy, but fails when the small model has already committed to incorrect reasoning paths. PRM guided search avoids this by scoring candidate continuations during generation, but requires a reward model trained with step-level labels.
