The paper introduces Dec-BFTRL, a decentralized algorithm for online optimization of upper-linearizable payoffs with efficient separation access, targeting continuous diminishing-return submodular maximization. Each agent evaluates its action against the average of local objectives, projects via an approximate gauge, exchanges a cumulative surrogate-gradient dual state, and uses a local HybridNewton step to minimize its BFTRL potential. The method achieves an expected network-aggregate regret of “~O(√T)” while requiring T neighbor-mixing steps and ~O(T) separation-oracle calls per agent, and provides four wrapper instantiations for three DR-submodular problems.

The paper examines how artificial intelligence impacts freedom of expression, focusing on two technologies: social media recommendation algorithms and conversational AI chatbots. It argues that recommendation algorithms shape speech visibility in the digital public sphere, making them relevant to free‑speech philosophy, while conversational AI raises questions about granting speech rights to agents and users’ right to information. The work also explores corporate speech rights for platforms and developers, aiming to highlight unresolved issues from AI’s rapid growth.
LOC I (Locator‑Critic) is a training‑free framework that separates visual search from evidence verification in Vision‑Language Models. It uses a Locator agent to propose candidate visual evidence and a Critic agent to assess its relevance, engaging in an iterative refinement loop that progressively improves the evidence until it is sufficient to answer a question. The approach yields state‑of‑the‑art results on several complex visual benchmarks, boosting accuracy for both open‑weight models like Qwen3‑VL and proprietary models such as Gemini 2.5 Pro.

The study examines how different two‑dimensional projections of spherical 360‑degree video affect end‑to‑end neural compression. Seven JVET‑360Lib formats were evaluated using a scale‑space flow model on standard test sequences, with performance measured by PSNR, spherical PSNR, weighted spherical PSNR, and BD‑rate. Results show that equirectangular and padded equirectangular projections yield the best compression efficiency with the neural model, while cubemap‑based formats excel with conventional HM‑16.16 codecs, highlighting that projection choice is codec‑dependent.
