Deep Learning Imputation of Missing Radius of Maximum Winds (Rmax) Values in Tropical Cyclone Best-Track Data

arXiv:2608. 09683v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Probabilistic coastal hazard assessments require accurate characterization of tropical cyclone (TC) parameters, yet datasets often contain missing records for the radius of maximum winds (Rmax), a key variable in Joint Probability Method analyses.

LoRSA: Toward Generalizable Parameter-Efficient Fine-Tuning for Biomedical Downstream Tasks

arXiv:2608. 07749v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Parameter-efficient fine-tuning enables the adaptation of vision foundation models to biomedical tasks under limited computational resources, but a single low-rank update can constrain all task-specific changes to one narrow parameter subspace.

Preserving Item Semantics for Free: Rethinking Token Initialization in LLM-Based Generative Recommendation

arXiv:2608. 07816v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Recent advances in generative recommendation (GR) leverage large language models (LLMs) as recommender backbones, enabling LLMs to directly generate recommendations conditioned on item-interaction histories.
