Phase-Preserving Trimodal Transformer for Tropical Forest Biomass Estimation Using Optical and PolInSAR Data

arXiv:2607. 03663v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: The accurate estimation of Above-Ground Biomass (AGB) in mature tropical forests remains a critical challenge in remote sensing, primarily due to the saturation of Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) signals in high-density areas and persistent cloud cover affecting optical imagery.

Large Language Models Generate Harmful Responses Using a Distinct Mechanism, Shared Across Harm Types

arXiv:2604. 09544v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) undergo alignment training to avoid harmful behaviors, yet the resulting safeguards remain brittle: jailbreaks routinely bypass them, and fine-tuning on narrow domains can induce ``emergent misalignment'' that generalizes broadly.

Reason, Reward, Refine: Step-Level Errors Corrections with Structured Feedback for Physics Reasoning in Small Language Models

arXiv:2607. 05199v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Physics reasoning fails structurally in small language models: an error at any step propagates forward, corrupting every inference that follows.
