arXiv:2608. 14329v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Principle-based regulation, with evaluative standards such as "fair, clear, and not misleading" or "deliver good outcomes", cannot be reduced to binary predicates, and LLM-as-judge is increasingly used as the substitute.

arXiv:2608. 13576v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Brain-computer interface (BCI) research relies on multistage computational pipelines, yet progress remains constrained by fragmented data formats, heterogeneous decoder implementations and hardware-specific deployment toolchains, and researchers lack an integrated workflow.

arXiv:2608. 13940v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: AI research agents (AIRA) can now propose, implement, and evaluate their own machine learning experiments, but progress on frontier tasks is throttled by cost: a candidate solution can be written in minutes, whereas evaluating it can take hours to days of GPU time.

Spreadsheets are a primary medium for publishing tabular data, yet automatically extracting structured content from them remains difficult due to heterogeneous layouts, diverse file formats, and inconsistent organizational conventions. We address two core tasks in spreadsheet understanding: Cell-Type Classification (CTC), which assigns roles to cells, and Table Detection (TD), which identifies table bounding boxes within sheets.
In cognitive science, resource rationality asks how an agent should allocate limited computation to maximize expected value. Most reasoning and agent benchmarks use independent per-task budgets; exist...
Camera-based object detectors are vulnerable to physical adversarial attacks designed to suppress detections. While adversarial training and input purification offer some protection, they often overfit to specific attack distributions and fail on adaptive adversaries.
Visible-infrared person re-identification (VI-ReID) suffers from cross-modal discrepancies and limited discriminative capabilities, leading to suboptimal recognition performance. Current approaches ex...
We introduce ReRef-3D, a benchmark for language-guided placement in 3D scenes. It contains 33,826 instructions across 998 CLEVR-derived scenes, spanning 16 placement families and direct, one-hop, and two-hop references.
