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.

Explaining, Verifying, and Aligning Semantic Hierarchies in Vision-Language Model Embeddings

arXiv:2603. 26798v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Vision-language model (VLM) encoders such as CLIP enable strong retrieval and zero-shot classification in a shared image-text embedding space, yet the semantic organization of this space is rarely inspected.

Length-MAX Tokenizer for Language Models

arXiv:2511. 20849v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We introduce a new tokenizer for language models that minimizes the average tokens per character, thereby reducing the number of tokens needed to represent text during training and to generate text during inference.

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.

PreGress: Ranking-Native Pre-training and Prompting for Graph Node Ranking

arXiv:2608. 09016v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Node ranking is a fundamental problem in graph information retrieval, measuring the relative importance of nodes and supporting a wide range of applications such as influence analysis, recommendation, and graph-based retrieval augmented generation.
