LoRA, PEFT, instruction tuning and domain adaptation — adapting a pretrained model without paying to train one.
arXiv:2605. 21917v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Training Vision Language Models (VLMs) for video event reasoning requires high-quality structured annotations capturing not only what happened, but when, where, why, and with what consequence, at a scale manual labelling cannot support.
arXiv:2607. 08143v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We present the results of HIPE-OCRepair-2026, an ICDAR competition on LLM-assisted OCR post-correction of historical documents.
arXiv:2607. 07989v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large language model (LLM) based multi-agent systems enable complex problem solving through coordinated reasoning and action, but their distributed structure also introduces new challenges in diagnosing system-level failures.
arXiv:2607. 08643v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) are increasingly constrained by memory capacity, weight bandwidth, and checkpoint storage during deployment.
arXiv:2607. 07719v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Parameter-efficient fine-tuning adapts a large language model to one task cheaply, but across a task sequence LoRA-style methods keep stacking low-rank updates on the same frozen weight, so each new task tends to overwrite the previous ones.
arXiv:2607. 07957v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) affects over 75 million individuals worldwide, yet scalable computational methods for remote behavioral screening remain limited.
arXiv:2607. 08716v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: In long-horizon tasks, decision-relevant state is often scattered across an expanding trajectory, while the action agent must surface it and act.
arXiv:2607. 08014v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Federated learning (FL) is a collaborative learning scheme to train deep learning models, where collaborating parties can consolidate their models without sharing local data with other parties, hence preserving data privacy.
arXiv:2607. 08763v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Reasoning has become a core capability for large models, especially when reliable decisions require understanding logical consequences.
arXiv:2607. 08409v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: LLM-based ASR adapted to regulated domains such as banking is bottlenecked by privacy: real speech is costly and legally constrained to collect, making synthetic text-to-speech (TTS) an attractive substitute.
In long-horizon tasks, decision-relevant state is often scattered across an expanding trajectory, while the action agent must surface it and act. As trajectories grow, task requirements, environment facts, prior attempts, diagnoses, and open subgoals can be buried in the context window or pushed beyond it, failing to influence decisions when needed.
Accurate prognosis prediction is important for treatment planning in lung cancer, but deep learning-driven survival modelling is often limited by the scarcity of curated imaging cohorts with reliable outcome data. This study evaluates whether representations from a domain-specific foundation model can be used for multimodal survival prediction in data-constrained clinical settings.
With the widespread deployment of basic models in edge intelligence, communication bandwidth has become a core bottleneck restricting the scalability of federated learning. Although one-shot federated learning alleviates this problem by minimizing communication rounds, existing iterative fine-tuning or knowledge distillation methods still face challenges such as high server-side computational costs and hyperparameter sensitivity.
arXiv:2603. 16551v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Generative models are increasingly used to augment medical imaging datasets for fairer AI, yet a key assumption often goes unexamined: that generators produce equally high-quality images across demographic groups.
arXiv:2501. 10870v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: The principal objective of this work is twofold within nonparametric regression settings: (1) to establish the minimax optimal convergence rates for fixed-bandwidth Gaussian kernel spectral algorithms when the true regression function resides in a Sobolev space, and (2) to apply Gaussian spectral algorithms for achieving robust and adaptive transfer learning under concept shift.
arXiv:2607. 06993v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Customer behavior modeling underpins recommendation, marketing, and decision support, yet existing approaches either optimize predictive accuracy without explaining decisions or simulate users without grounding them in real behavioral data.
arXiv:2607. 07023v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Supervised fine-tuning (SFT) is often treated as a capability-adaptation step, while alignment is attributed to later preference optimization or reinforcement learning.
arXiv:2607. 06629v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Brain age -- the age inferred from a physiological recording -- is an emerging biomarker whose deviation from chronological age tracks neurological and psychiatric burden, and EEG is an attractive substrate for it because it is cheap, portable, and temporally rich.
arXiv:2607. 07557v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: One-shot pruning methods like Wanda and SparseGPT apply the same sparsity ratio to every layer of a transformer, ignoring known variation in layer importance.
arXiv:2607. 06875v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Understanding and forecasting audience reactions to video content are crucial for improving content creation, recommendation systems, and media analysis.
