arXiv:2608. 01745v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Maximizing throughput under proportional fairness in dense wireless networks requires jointly managing user association, scheduling, base station (BS) activation, and handover control under hard finite-horizon energy and handover budgets, which induces a fundamental tension between BS-side energy management and user-side handover regulation.

arXiv:2608. 01793v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Unified anomaly detection requires modeling highly heterogeneous normal data without access to anomalous samples.

arXiv:2608. 01968v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Transformer models are most often understood through what they do: their benchmark performance, generation quality, or behavior on downstream tasks.

arXiv:2608. 02229v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Classical neural networks frequently produce overconfident predictions on ambiguous or out-of-distribution (OOD) data, a liability that grows with each AI system deployed in safety-critical real-world scenarios.

arXiv:2608. 02352v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Native computer use offers a general interface for agents to operate almost any software available to people, but requires long-horizon state tracking, large-scale interactive experience, and learning from sparse yet verifiable outcomes.

arXiv:2608. 02412v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) have become the default tool for a remarkable range of tasks, yet they have had conspicuously little success at one of the most common machine learning workloads: predictive analytics over tabular data.

arXiv:2608. 02585v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Optimization-based latent reasoning improves large language model outputs by optimizing instance-specific continuous states at test time while keeping model parameters frozen.

arXiv:2608. 00004v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Grading natural-language mathematical proofs is a recurring cost in evaluating math-reasoning systems, and frontier LLM judges are expensive.

arXiv:2608. 00187v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Correspondence-based statistical shape modeling (SSM) is vital for population-level morphometric analysis, but conventional pipelines assume clean, fully registered surfaces.

arXiv:2608. 00200v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Wearable sensors capture fine-grained motion patterns that support rich behavioral understanding, yet most existing methods reduce these signals to activity labels.

arXiv:2608. 00355v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Progress in large language models is often summarized using a single scalar measure, such as a time horizon, a latent ability estimate, or an aggregate benchmark score.

arXiv:2608. 00715v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Learning-based controllers can deliver exoskeleton assistance after training entirely in physics-based simulation, yet few controllers that address human-device co-adaptation have been validated on real users by whole-body metabolic measurement, the standard benchmark for assistive walking.

arXiv:2608. 00870v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Panoptic crop mapping requires both delineating individual agricultural parcels and assigning a crop type to each parcel from satellite image time series.

arXiv:2608. 00943v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Automated sleep staging assigns discrete stage labels to successive time epochs throughout an overnight recording; conventionally each window spans at least 30 seconds, reflecting the minimum temporal resolution of the clinical scoring standard.
