Mobile GUI agents remain brittle when deployed to applications absent from source training. We study novel-app generalization under a limited target interaction budget and without target demonstrations.
Recent advances in model design and self-supervised audio representations have improved speech and audio understanding, yet infant-centered naturalistic recordings remain challenging due to limited labeled data, low signal-to-noise ratio, and cross-family domain shifts. We present a family-conditioned, multi-tier audio tagger that combines a LoRA-finetuned Whisper encoder with a lightweight, target-speaker-aware Transformer for long-context inference and framewise prediction across tiers.
In recent research on the Digital Twin-based Vehicular Ad hoc Network(DT-VANET), Federated Learning (FL) has shown its ability to provide data privacy. However, Federated learning struggles to adequately train a global model when confronted with data heterogeneity and data sparsity among vehicles, which ensure suboptimal accuracy in making precise predictions for different vehicle types.
Electricity price forecasting is crucial for market participants but remains difficult because prices are volatile, market-specific, and closely tied to anticipated system conditions. Existing supervised methods depend largely on market-specific historical data, limiting their use in newly established or data-scarce markets.
Although Whisper models benefit from large-scale multilingual pre-training, their performance on Burmese medical speech remains limited. This work presents a Burmese medical speech recognition framework built on a high-quality 28-hour corpus recorded and validated by native speakers.
Emergent misalignment (EM) is the phenomenon where fine-tuning a language model on a narrow task leads to harmful behavior in unrelated domains. A leading mechanistic account attributes EM to persona features: latent directions acquired during pre-training that misaligned fine-tuning amplifies.
Spatio-temporal PV data are essential for understanding adoption processes in off-grid regions, yet such data remain largely unavailable. Automated segmentation of remote sensing (RS) imagery offers a promising solution; yet, residential PV systems remain challenging targets because of their small size and sparse distribution, resulting in severe target-background imbalance.
Proteolysis-targeting chimeras (PROTACs) induce protein degradation by recruiting a target protein to an E3 ubiquitin ligase, making degradation a joint outcome of the degrader molecule and its biological context. Although public databases contain thousands of structured molecule-target-E3 records, degradation measurements are available for only a small fraction of them.
Large vision-language models (LVLMs) remain vulnerable to jailbreak attacks that exploit visual inputs to bypass safety alignment inherited from their language backbones. We propose SafeCap, a reinforcement-learning framework that aligns LVLMs through learned self-captioning.
Large language models (LLMs) are widely applied across chemical tasks, such as molecular property prediction, which underpins drug discovery. Molecular LLMs represent a molecule through several modalities, notably a 1D SMILES sequence or a 2D molecular graph.
Large language models (LLMs) are trained on massive and largely undisclosed corpora that may contain copyrighted or privacy-sensitive content. Data contamination detection (DCD) therefore aims to determine whether a given text is a member of the pre-training corpus of a target LLM.
