Persona-as-Configuration: Generative Stakeholder Reporting for Agricultural Floods

arXiv:2607. 17774v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Cyber-physical systems built on deterministic edge inference, such as on-vehicle flood detection for agricultural fields, produce structured decision logs that must be interpreted differently by heterogeneous stakeholders.

LLM Watermarking as Big Data Provenance: A Deployment-Oriented Systematization

The paper presents a systematic framework for large language model (LLM) watermarking as a provenance tool in big data ecosystems. It categorizes existing watermarking methods along four deployment dimensions—insertion point, verification authority, operational state, and transformation threat model—and aligns them with the big data principles of Volume, Velocity, Variety, Veracity, and Value. The authors introduce a readiness framework that maps four key workloads—online generation, streaming detection, transformation pipelines, and ecosystem governance—to system-level requirements such as throughput, false-positive control, robustness, cross-domain reliability, governance, and downstream utility, while highlighting gaps between benchmark performance and real-world deployment readiness.

Granite.Trust Policy Tools: Shareable, Actionable Policies for Generative AI Applications

Granite.Trust Policy Tools introduces a YAML-based Actionable Policy schema that specifies what content a generative AI model can or cannot produce, allowing exception-based governance. It also offers a synthetic data generation pipeline to create policy-aligned training data and a suite of tools for defining and enforcing these policies throughout the AI lifecycle. The tools and example policies are open source, enabling organizations to tailor safety policies to their specific risks and regulatory contexts.

POTracker: Optimizing Large Language Models for Standard-Compliant Power Outage Report Generation

arXiv:2606. 23533v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Recent large language models (LLMs) are good at general text generation, but it is still hard to use them for domain-specific data generation because the output must follow strict formatting and structural rules.

Never the Number: Structural Abstention for AI Systems Whose Answers Are Consumed as Fact

arXiv:2608. 13926v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language models have made natural language interfaces to databases (NLIDB) newly credible, but LLM text-to-SQL systems fail in a way that matters for deployment: a hallucinated column or a mis-aggregated total yields a fluent wrong answer, indistinguishable at the point of use from a right one.
