JEPA-DNA: Grounding Genomic Foundation Models through Joint-Embedding Predictive Architectures

arXiv:2602. 17162v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Genomic Foundation Models (GFMs) typically rely on Masked Language Modeling (MLM) or Next-Token Prediction (NTP) to learn the "Laws of Nature".

Multi-Level Evidence Aggregation for Robust Facial Phenotype Retrieval in Rare Genetic Disorder Prioritization

AI-assisted facial phenotyping supports rare genetic disorder prioritization by retrieving visually similar diagnosed cases from facial image reference databases such as the GestaltMatcher Database (GMDB). Existing GestaltMatcher-based retrieval frameworks compare each test image with individual gallery images in a facial phenotype embedding space.

MUSE: A Full-Text Cross-Domain Knowledge Base of Scientific Problems, Solutions, and Rationales

Scientific papers contain fine-grained records of problem solving: authors mention technical obstacles and methods that were used to address them, often along with reasoning on why those methods were chosen. We introduce MUSE (Mining Underlying Scientific Explanations), a full-text, multi-domain resource of scientific Problem-Solution-Rationale (P-S-R) triplets.

Order Matters: LVLMs as Judges for Temporal Reasoning in Image Sequences

As generative multimedia evolves from static image synthesis to complex, interleaved visual narratives, a foundational bottleneck has emerged: the judgment crisis. While human perception naturally synthesizes the temporal and logical flow of a story, automated evaluation systems remain largely "blind" to sequential continuity, often failing to distinguish between a coherent narrative and a semantically shuffled or contradictory sequence.

SkillLens: Visual Skill Cards for Retrieval-Augmented GUI Action Prediction and On-Policy Distillation

Computer-using agents can perceive rich software interfaces, yet their decisions often lack visual procedural memory: they may recognize individual controls without identifying which familiar workflow is active, which control matters next, or what evidence would confirm progress. Raw interaction traces preserve such information but are long and noisy to condition on, whereas text-only skills often omit the visual state that makes a procedure applicable.

FITTER: Vocabulary-Agnostic Cross-Domain Inference on Temporal Knowledge Graphs

Temporal knowledge graphs are central to many uses of the Semantic Web, but existing completion methods assume the entities, relation names, and timestamps to be reasoned about are already known at training time, restricting each model to a single graph and vocabulary. We propose FITTER, the first fully-inductive structural model for temporal knowledge graph link prediction that supports cross-domain transfer: the inference graph may contain entirely unseen entities, relation names, and timestamps drawn from a different domain.

Retrieval-Corrected Conformal Prediction for Time Series

Conformal prediction (CP) provides distribution-free prediction intervals for fixed forecasters, but its standard calibration procedure is often inefficient for time series data, where forecast errors are temporally dependent and change across time and operating conditions. Recent time series CP methods improve local calibration using recent, weighted, or localized residuals.

TreeHop: Efficient Embedding-Level Query Rewriter

arXiv:2504. 20114v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) systems face significant challenges in multi-hop question answering (MHQA), where complex queries require synthesizing information across multiple document chunks.

Embedding Initialization for Unseen Low-resource Languages in Multilingual NMT: A Case Study on Limbum-English Translation

arXiv:2608. 07629v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Multilingual neural machine translation models such as NLLB-200 cover 200 languages but leave thousands unsupported, including most Grassfields Bantu languages of Cameroon.
