MEnvAgent: Scalable Polyglot Environment Construction for Verifiable Software Engineering

arXiv:2601. 22859v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: The evolution of Large Language Model (LLM) agents for software engineering (SWE) is constrained by the scarcity of verifiable datasets, a bottleneck stemming from the complexity of constructing executable environments across diverse languages.

Meeting SLOs, Slashing Hours: Automated Enterprise LLM Optimization with OptiKIT

arXiv:2601. 20408v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Enterprise LLM deployment faces a critical scalability challenge: organizations must optimize models systematically to scale AI initiatives within constrained compute budgets, yet the specialized expertise required for manual optimization remains a niche and scarce skillset.

Capacity-Controlled Global Attention for Graph Transformers

arXiv:2604. 17324v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Global self-attention drives modern graph transformers, yet the softmax at its core imposes a structural constraint rarely examined directly: every attention row is non-negative and sums to one, so each per-head output is a mass-conserving convex combination of value vectors.

Integrating gene regulatory priors into Transformer attention with scTransformer for interpretable scRNA-seq analysis

arXiv:2606. 09558v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Motivation: Transformer-based models are increasingly applied to large-scale single-cell transcriptomics, showing strong performance through self-supervised learning on millions of cells.

How Much Capacity Does EEG Denoising Need? Ultra-Compact Networks reveal Benchmark Saturation and Metric-Utility Gap

arXiv:2606. 08594v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Deep learning EEG denoising architectures have scaled from tens of thousands to tens of millions of parameters, yet no prior study has isolated model capacity as the experimental variable or tested whether reconstruction metrics predict downstream neural-signal utility.
