Beyond Agent Architecture: Execution Assumptions and Reproducibility in LLM-Based Trading Systems

arXiv:2606. 08285v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) and agentic systems are increasingly proposed for financial trading, yet their reported performance remains difficult to compare because studies vary in data provenance, temporal split discipline, execution timing, turnover treatment, and transaction-cost modeling.

GIFT: LLM-Guided State-Reward Interface for Financial Reinforcement Learning

arXiv:2606. 08450v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Financial portfolio trading is naturally formulated as a reinforcement learning problem, where an agent sequentially rebalances assets under changing market conditions to balance return, risk, and transaction costs.

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.

AI-Native Closed-Loop Security for 6G-Enabled Cyber-Physical Systems: From Edge Detection to Network-Wide Mitigation

arXiv:2606. 08173v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: In sixth-generation (6G) networks, billions of cyber-physical systems (CPSs) - autonomous vehicles, smart grids, industrial robots, and remote-surgical equipment - will run over ultra-reliable low-latency slices, collapsing the gap between a remote breach and physical harm to milliseconds, a budget perimeter firewalls and centralised security operations centres cannot meet.

Weak-Driven Learning: How Weak Agents make Strong Agents Stronger

arXiv:2602. 08222v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: As post-training optimization becomes central to improving large language models, we observe a persistent saturation bottleneck: once models grow highly confident, further training yields diminishing returns.

Eyes All Around: Design and Analysis of 360-Degree LiDAR Perception Using Equivariant Feature Learning in Unstructured Traffic

arXiv:2606. 07626v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Perception in dense, unstructured urban traffic remains a major challenge for autonomous driving because of the wide variety of road users, frequent occlusions, irregular motion patterns, and the lack of standardized road layouts.

Conditional Normalizing Flows for Forward and Backward Joint State and Parameter Estimation

arXiv:2601. 07013v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Traditional filtering algorithms for state estimation -- such as classical Kalman filtering, unscented Kalman filtering, and particle filters -- show performance degradation when applied to nonlinear systems whose uncertainty follows arbitrary non-Gaussian, and potentially multi-modal distributions.
