arXiv:2607. 01762v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Many representation learning problems involve directed relations, such as lexical entailment, sentence entailment, ontology hierarchy, and citation links.

arXiv:2602. 23665v5 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We present Geodesic Semantic Search (GSS), a retrieval system that learns node-specific Riemannian metrics on citation graphs to enable geometry-aware semantic search.

arXiv:2607. 03143v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Vision-language alignment powers open-vocabulary recognition, retrieval, and LVLM grounding, yet natural captions are often underspecified, making similarity brittle and overly confident under paraphrase and omitted details.

arXiv:2606. 05173v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Masked language modelling (MLM) has been the dominant pre-training objective for text encoders since BERT, yet it encourages representations that are strongly anchored to surface-form token identity rather than deeper semantic structure.

arXiv:2605. 13352v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Standard dual-encoder vision-language models that map images and text to deterministic points on a shared unit hypersphere through $\ell_2$ normalization typically expose neither \emph{aleatoric} uncertainty (cross-modal ambiguity) nor \emph{epistemic} uncertainty (lack of training-distribution support).

arXiv:2512. 12477v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Estimating node importance in heterogeneous knowledge graphs is a fundamental problem underlying recommendation, search, and knowledge decision systems.
