Leaderboards, eval harnesses and ablations — the contested business of deciding which model is actually better.
arXiv:2607. 25338v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Achieving a coherent integration of spectral richness and spatial fidelity remains a central objective in hyperspectral image fusion.
arXiv:2607. 25420v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) are increasingly used in recommender systems, but it is often unclear how much performance can be obtained from strong pre-trained backbones alone when they are placed inside a structured recommendation pipeline.
arXiv:2607. 25583v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Parameter-efficient fine-tuning (PEFT) and low-bit quantization are now standard tools for adapting language models under tight compute budgets, yet their interaction is most often studied on billion-parameter models where the design space is expensive to explore.
arXiv:2607. 25216v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Semantic ID-based generative recommendation tokenizes each item into a sequence of discrete semantic IDs and predicts the next item by generating semantic IDs.
arXiv:2607. 25299v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Optimization over the Stiefel manifold plays a significant role in various machine learning tasks.
arXiv:2607. 25554v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Future event prediction carries broad social impact yet remains challenging.
arXiv:2607. 21859v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Constructing causal directed acyclic graphs (DAGs) is a core step in biomedical causal analysis, yet it remains a largely manual process.
Plant biosynthetic gene clusters (BGCs) encode specialized-metabolite pathways, yet curated plant BGC labels remain scarce, hindering supervised discovery at genome scale. Existing plant BGC mining tools are largely signature- and rule-driven and do not fully leverage recent advances in contextual representation learning for modeling long-range domain context and controlling false positives under strong domain shift.
White-light imaging (WLI) and narrow-band imaging (NBI) provide complementary views of endoscopic lesions, but their paired observations are often spatially misaligned due to viewpoint changes, tissue deformation, and sequential handheld acquisition. This makes direct WLI/NBI fusion prone to mixing non-corresponding regions and may even degrade segmentation around lesion boundaries.
Wi-Fi-based human activity recognition has advanced substantially, but most existing methods assume a closed set of activities and require labeled Wi-Fi samples for every target class, limiting their ability to recognize unseen activities. We present Zero-Fi, a contrastive signal-language alignment framework for zero-shot Wi-Fi-based human activity recognition.
Financial disclosures contain numerical claims, temporal statements, entity references, policy commitments, and risk descriptions that may conflict in qualitatively different ways. Detecting a conflict is only the first step: review workflows may also need to determine its type, since numerical, temporal, referential, factual, and normative inconsistencies require different evidence and downstream checks.
Content-moderation classifiers are usually evaluated in isolation, but deployment requires choosing where to intervene and what follows a flag. We evaluate these choices using two end-to-end customer-outcome metrics rather than component accuracy: Usefulness, the fraction of turns with a shown, non-harmful, relevant response, and Harmful Exposure, the fraction with a shown harmful response.
Evaluation methodologies for language models increasingly combine multiple signals, from automated metrics and LLM-as-judge ratings to human assessments and benchmark suite results. When these signals are aggregated via averaging, evaluation confidence can then substantially exceed the reliability of the weakest signal: a phenomenon we call trust inflation in evaluation.
Functional verification dominates integrated circuit (IC) front-end engineering effort, and a single missed bug that escapes to silicon can trigger a costly respin. Recent large language models (LLMs) offer new opportunities to automate this process, yet existing LLM-based approaches generate each component through independent single-turn calls with no shared context, leaving interface mismatches undetected and reported coverage disconnected from specification requirements.
Over the past decade, decision trees have been used to represent controllers (a. k.
In this work, we study the use of Vision-Language Models (VLMs) for anomaly detection in an agent-driven game Quality Assurance (QA) pipeline focusing on geometry clipping. In this evaluation, a custom exploration agent navigates a game level to collect visual observations, while the automatic annotation pipeline provides frame-level clipping labels.
Retrieval-augmented generation improves knowledge-intensive question answering, but indiscriminate retrieval can introduce irrelevant evidence and unnecessary computation. We investigate whether verbalized confidence from black-box language models can serve as an actionable signal for retrieval routing.
Parameter-efficient fine-tuning (PEFT) and low-bit quantization are now standard tools for adapting language models under tight compute budgets, yet their interaction is most often studied on billion-parameter models where the design space is expensive to explore. We ask a complementary question: on a specific, fully reproducible 60M-parameter encoder-decoder model (T5-small) and a single-table text-to-SQL benchmark (WikiSQL), how much task accuracy does each efficiency knob actually cost?
Large language models (LLMs) are increasingly used in recommender systems, but it is often unclear how much performance can be obtained from strong pre-trained backbones alone when they are placed inside a structured recommendation pipeline. In this paper, we present MARS, a modular multi-agent re-ranking framework for repeat-order food delivery recommendation.
Reflections from shiny objects and glass facades naturally extend the field of view of a camera, capturing the surrounding environment without the need to pan the camera or acquire a full panorama. We propose PanoLess, a Gaussian-splat-based framework that reconstructs the surrounding environment as a distant illumination map from images captured on only one side of a reflective surface.
