arXiv:2606. 17087v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: ZIVARI-TLBO is a grouped Teaching-Learning-Based Optimization (TLBO) method that augments an existing population-state controller with a fixed inter-group evaluated-elite relay.
arXiv:2606. 11015v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Tuning controllers for strongly coupled multi-input multi-output (MIMO) industrial processes is hard: decentralized classical auto-tuning ignores loop interaction, and local numerical optimization from natural initializations stalls in the resulting non-convex cost landscape.
arXiv:2603. 17057v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Active multi-fidelity surrogate modeling is developed for multi-condition airfoil shape optimization to reduce high-fidelity CFD cost while retaining RANS-consistent aerodynamic metrics.
arXiv:2607. 07050v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Top-K teacher logits make on-policy distillation tractable, but probability mass is not the same as decision support.
arXiv:2608. 07809v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: A world model is only useful for physical AI if it changes what the agent does, and only safe if it declines to do so when it is wrong.
arXiv:2607. 27914v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Multi-zone variable-air-volume control must balance thermal comfort, indoor air quality, and electricity use across several continuous actuators.
arXiv:2607. 18163v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: PPO and the GRPO baseline studied here use clipped surrogate objectives whose favorable-direction saturation introduces an abrupt change in the scalar objective's derivative.
arXiv:2608. 12957v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Group Relative Policy Optimization (GRPO) learns from reward differences within a rollout group, but receives no useful relative signal when every sampled response is incorrect.
arXiv:2608. 08008v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Process reward models (PRMs) score intermediate reasoning steps and are widely used for search, ranking, and training, but optimization can exploit these learned proxies by increasing reward while turning correct reasoning into incorrect reasoning.
arXiv:2607. 25136v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Research on preference optimization often varies the training objective while holding the data fixed.
arXiv:2607. 16246v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Off-policy distillation is now central to large language model pre-training, yet how training data, objective parameterization, and model capabilities interact remains poorly characterized.
arXiv:2607. 11725v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Prefabricated prefinished volumetric construction moves most building work into module factories, whose production floor operates as a flexible job shop.
arXiv:2605. 25063v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Scan-order design in laser directed energy deposition (LDED) is a delayed, path-dependent thermo-mechanical decision problem, because sequence quality becomes observable only after the complete deposition and cooling cycle.
