Estimating Inconsistency Response Surfaces under Uncertainty in Cyber-Physical System Development

Read the original on arXiv Machine Learning →

The paper presents a method to estimate inconsistency response surfaces in Cyber‑Physical Systems (CPS) under uncertainty. By reformulating inconsistency as an intervention‑response modeling problem, the authors use Saltelli sampling and multi‑fidelity Monte Carlo estimation to generate datasets, then train a surrogate model that predicts inconsistency from propagated uncertainty geometry. Experiments on 48 scenarios across 10 CPS domains show that the surrogate matches Monte Carlo estimates while dramatically reducing evaluation time, enabling extensive sensitivity analysis and a gradient‑based consistency recourse method to identify minimal interventions that restore consistency.

Diagnose, Recover, Certify: Task Readiness under Hidden Dynamics Changes

The paper introduces a framework for diagnosing and recovering from hidden dynamics changes in deployed control policies, focusing on the problem of task readiness under dormant dynamics drift. It proposes an intervention-based Bayesian method called Evidence‑Gated Matched‑Pulse Transport that localizes faults and estimates actuator effectiveness, enabling agents to certify readiness for future tasks with limited, task‑agnostic interactions. The approach is evaluated on diverse benchmarks, measuring readiness coverage, selective risk, interaction cost, and return, and identifies regimes where transported evidence is decisive.

Quantifying Aleatoric Uncertainty of In-Context Learning for Robust Measure of LLM Prediction Confidence

arXiv:2606. 19353v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: In-Context Learning (ICL) allows LLMs to adapt to new tasks from a few demonstrations, but its reliability remains a concern: predictions are highly sensitive to both prompt design and the model's ability to understand the context, obscuring whether failures arise from data properties or model limitations.
