A Resilience-as-a-Service assessment framework for coordinated disruption response in interdependent urban transit systems

arXiv:2606. 08849v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Urban public transport disruptions require rapid response strategies, yet existing studies rarely provide a decision support framework to compare alternative disruption response solutions using a common set of dynamic, passenger, operator, and environment oriented indicators.

Resilience Matters for Embodied Agents System: New Metrics, Systematic Evaluation, and Optimization

The paper introduces a new resilience evaluation framework for Embodied Agents Systems (EAS), defining metrics for Rebound, Stability, and Graceful Extensibility. It demonstrates that traditional outcome-centric metrics obscure dynamic behaviors, while the proposed metrics reveal process-level distinctions such as recovery costs and instability across 400 household tasks with 10 EAS. Optimizing with these metrics reduces recovery costs and improves stability and extensibility, highlighting a trade‑off among resilience characteristics that should guide deployment-specific system design.

Large Multimodal Agents for Intelligent Transportation Systems: Architectures, Evidence, and Deployment Challenges

arXiv:2608. 08184v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large multimodal agents (LMAs) are increasingly proposed for intelligent transportation systems (ITS), but existing studies often conflate multimodality, agency, empirical performance, and deployment readiness.

Guide Me Out: A Framework to Benchmark VLM Operators Communication in Crisis Scenarios

Effective crisis response requires spatially grounded communication that bridges linguistic guidance of civilians with the physical environment, accounting for structural bottlenecks, evolving threats, and agent-specific contexts. Yet, current NLP research in crisis communication remains mainly limited to static, text-only classification settings, overlooking the critical communicative role of AI operators in dynamic, embodied scenarios.

When Stopping Fails: Rethinking Minimal Risk Conditions through Human-Interactive Autonomous Driving for Safe Transportation Systems

arXiv:2606. 29115v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Autonomous vehicles (AVs) are increasingly deployed in urban environments, yet their safety frameworks remain primarily designed around collision avoidance and minimal risk condition (MRC) behaviors such as slowing or stopping when uncertainty arises.
