Equivariant Quantum Clustering with Differential Privacy: Parameter-Efficient Privacy-Preserving Analysis Across Heterogeneous Sensitive Datasets

Privacy-preserving clustering is critical for analyzing sensitive data in healthcare, cybersecurity, and enterprise applications, where maintaining data confidentiality must be balanced with analytical performance. This paper presents Equivariant Quantum Clustering (EQC), a parameter-efficient framework that integrates symmetry-aware quantum circuits with differential privacy to improve the privacy-utility tradeoff.

Cost-Effective Agent Harnesses for Abstract Reasoning and Generalization on ARC-AGI-1

arXiv:2607. 06764v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Recent progress on ARC-AGI-1 from disclosed architectures has come broadly from two regimes: heavy test-time compute over frontier models (evolutionary search, exhaustive sampling, extended chain-of-thought), or benchmark-specific training in which small models are fine-tuned on ARC data, often with task-specialized architectures.

EMO-R3: Reflective Reinforcement Learning for Emotional Reasoning in Multimodal Large Language Models

arXiv:2602. 23802v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) have shown remarkable progress in visual reasoning and understanding tasks but still struggle to capture the complexity and subjectivity of human emotions.

Structural Adversarial Attacks on Relational Deep Learning under Integrity Constraints

arXiv:2607. 07089v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Relational Deep Learning (RDL) has become a standard methodology for machine learning on relational databases: the database is encoded as a heterogeneous temporal graph in which tuples become nodes and primary-key to foreign-key (PK-FK) dependencies become typed edges, over which a graph neural network is trained for downstream prediction.

Gauge-Invariant Learnable Spectral Positional Encodings for Directed Graphs via Hermitian Block Krylov Subspaces

arXiv:2607. 07032v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Spectral positional encodings (PEs) for \emph{directed} graphs face two obstacles: magnetic Laplacians require an $O(n^3)$ Hermitian eigendecomposition per potential, and their complex eigenvectors are defined only up to unitary gauge, which prior work handles with basis-invariant architectures.

Explain Before You Answer: A Survey on Compositional Visual Reasoning

arXiv:2508. 17298v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Compositional visual reasoning has emerged as a key research frontier in multimodal AI, aiming to endow machines with the human-like ability to decompose visual scenes, ground intermediate concepts, and perform multi-step logical inference.

Can Reinforcement Learning Efficiently Discover Price Manipulation?

arXiv:2607. 06121v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: In this paper, we investigate whether a model-free RL agent can identify and exploit price manipulation opportunities more effectively than a traditional model-based approach that assumes correct specification of the data-generating process but relies on noisy parameter estimates.
