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.
A learning system can occupy execution states that are indistinguishable under every declared present-behavior readout yet respond differently to future training. We formalize this through fiber fingerprints: controlled future-learning response laws restricted to present-behavior equivalence classes.
Low-Rank Adaptation (LoRA) enables efficient federated fine-tuning of large language models, but its factorized parameterization creates a tension between accurate aggregation of local updates and con...
Bangla-English tutoring requires more than producing a correct translation: learners also need explanations of grammar differences, awareness of their likely errors, and targeted practice. We present...
Subject-driven image personalization---generating new images that preserve the identity of one or several reference subjects in novel scenes---is a foundational capability for modern visual content creation. It is currently dominated by generalized methods that fine-tune a pretrained multimodal diffusion transformer (MMDiT) on hundreds of thousands to millions of paired \emph{(reference, composed-target)} examples, where each composed target is a synthesized image of the subject in a novel scene.
Recent advances in large language models (LLMs) have reshaped semantic analysis. Opinion Extraction (OE) for Science and Technology Intelligence (STI) requires concise core opinions from large information streams.
Smart manufacturing processes are often installed with a large number of sensors, imaging devices and computers, which not only enable instant communication across various modules of a production syst...
arXiv:2608. 13250v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Normative datasets are often used to train and align AI systems, but the norms they contain can function as action-guiding patterns rather than neutral moral knowledge.

arXiv:2608. 13344v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Long-horizon Earth observation reasoning requires models to organize multi-stage geographic evolution, localize spatial changes, detect temporal anomalies, and infer future from extended image sequences.
