Negative sampling determines whether a knowledge graph embedding (KGE) model learns from informative counterexamples or wastes updates on implausible corruptions. Uniform negatives are diverse but eas...

Score Entropy Discrete Diffusion (SEDD) parameterizes discrete reverse processes with unconstrained positive score ratios. While positivity guarantees nonnegative reverse jump rates, it does not ensure Bayes realizability: ratios at a noisy state need not be jointly induced by any clean-token posterior under the forward kernel.

arXiv:2606. 24948v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Knowledge graph embedding (KGE) models predict single-hop links well but have no mechanism for zero-shot compositional queries: multi-hop questions whose relation chains never appeared during training.

The paper introduces First-Order In-Context Shapley, an inference‑only method that evaluates data utility for large language model alignment by computing the first‑order term of an in‑context cooperative game over semantic k‑NN neighborhoods in O(k) forward passes. It projects log‑likelihood shifts onto a directed influence graph, yielding three signals—Exemplifying Advantage, Exemplified Advantage, and One‑of‑a‑Kind Score—to identify high‑utility demonstrations and rare prompts. The approach reduces compute by 19× compared to Monte‑Carlo Shapley, filters 1–5% of records, and improves error detection and reward accuracy in DPO training and benchmark auditing.
whyItMatters":"By enabling scalable, inference‑only data auditing, the method addresses label noise and safety inversions that hinder post‑training alignment of large language models, leading to measurable improvements in model reliability and reward accuracy."

The paper investigates a failure mode in Graph-JEPA, a joint‑embedding predictive model trained on a large scientific‑reasoning graph. Despite achieving high linear‑probe accuracy and effective rank, the learned representation contains almost no usable instance information, as shown by retrieval metrics. The authors diagnose the issue to variance allocation in the objective, propose a repair that restores near‑perfect information recovery, and demonstrate that the problem persists even after repair, highlighting limitations in the evaluation metrics used.

AMLworld-Compact introduces an importance‑weighted downsampling protocol for evaluating large language models on AMLworld’s test splits, retaining all illicit transactions while sampling benign ones from supervised‑score strata. The HT‑Coreset method reduces evaluation targets by 271× on HI‑Small and 611× on LI‑Small, providing unbiased confusion‑count estimates with exact recall and ratio estimates for precision and F1. Experiments with boosted‑tree strata and Graph Feature Preprocessor features show lower F1 RMSE compared to uniform sampling, and audit tools reveal that lexical checks do not reliably indicate correctness of model outputs.
