arXiv:2607. 16811v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Drift detectors that work tend not to explain themselves, and drift detectors that explain themselves tend to fail in high dimension.

arXiv:2607. 16811v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We revisit Gaussian Mixture Models (GMMs) as a lightweight, interpretable tool for anomaly detection and, in particular, for detecting distributional drift in data streams.

arXiv:2608. 12652v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Benchmark contamination is diagnosed today with n-gram overlap, with likelihood-based membership inference, or with canary strings, and each needs something usually unavailable: the training corpus, a well-chosen test statistic, or foresight at dataset release.

arXiv:2606. 13780v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Machine-learned anomaly detection is reshaping searches for new physics, but it has outrun the statistics used to interpret it.

arXiv:2606. 22054v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Detectors for GNSS radio-frequency impairments (jamming, spoofing, multipath) are usually reported with a single AUC measured on the distribution they were tuned on.

The paper presents a runtime monitoring framework for stochastic systems that distinguishes normal distributional relaxation from regime changes while limiting false alarms. It combines relative‑entropy dissipation, information geometry, and sequential inference within a bounded first‑passage architecture, employing Gaussian window surrogates, covariance shrinkage, and conformal ranking aggregated by a mixture power‑martingale. Validation on Ornstein–Uhlenbeck dynamics and network intrusion datasets (NSL‑KDD, UNSW‑NB15) shows high detection rates with low false positives, highlighting calibration transport as a key deployment challenge.

arXiv:2608. 07914v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Behavioral contamination detectors can return "no evidence" either because a benchmark is clean or because the audit has little power.

arXiv:2606. 07789v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Data stream mining is fundamentally challenged by concept drift, where distributional changes can degrade model performance.

arXiv:2606. 20502v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Whether LLMs scoring well on vulnerability benchmarks genuinely reason about security or merely pattern-match on contaminated data remains unresolved.

arXiv:2607. 20129v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Quantized small autoregressive reasoning models can enter long, repetitive, or unproductive trajectories, yet inference-time compute is usually allocated without observing how a trajectory develops.

arXiv:2606. 31630v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Language models increasingly write probabilistic programs (in NumPyro, Stan, or Pyro), but a program that compiles, runs, and passes every unit test can still be \emph{statistically} wrong -- a Gaussian likelihood for heavy-tailed data, a Poisson for over-dispersed counts, an invalid prior support, or a pathological parameterization.

arXiv:2608. 02464v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: LLM agents fail mid-episode -- they loop, cascade tool errors, drift off goal, fabricate results, or silently absorb corrupted content -- and the standard remedy, judging every step with a second LLM, costs more than the agent itself.
