Missing-by-Design: Certifiable Modality Deletion for Revocable Multimodal Sentiment Analysis

arXiv:2602. 16144v4 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: As multimodal systems increasingly process sensitive personal data, the ability to selectively revoke specific data modalities has become a critical requirement for privacy compliance and user autonomy.

AdaRoPE: Not All Attention Heads Should Rotate and Scale Equally

arXiv:2607. 19363v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Rotary Position Embedding (RoPE) is widely adopted in Transformers to encode positional information, yet standard implementations enforce a uniform frequency schedule and scaling across all attention heads.

Sidewalk Moments: Are Richer Representations Always More Human-Aligned? Evidence from City-Walk Videos

We examine whether richer visual representations yield more human-aligned measures of urban engagement, using 61 first-person city-walk videos from YouTube segmented into over 50,000 ten-second clips and represented across four modalities: spatiotemporal video features, temporally averaged images (TAIs), audio embeddings, and text-based semantic descriptions. Spearman correlation analysis reveals the expected ordering along the temporal-richness continuum, with video features showing the strongest continuous alignment.

Offline RL with Hierarchical Action Chunking

Offline goal-conditioned reinforcement learning (RL) holds the promise of learning general-purpose policies from static datasets. However, scaling these methods to long-horizon tasks remains a challenge due to the curse of horizon, where value estimation errors can compound through long chains of bootstrapped Bellman backups.

Loop Engineering for RAG Generation: Iterate top-k One at a Time

Enterprise Document Intelligence [Vol. 1 #8bis] - Two regimes for sending retrieved candidates to the generation brick, the sufficiency signal that picks between them, and the per-question type dispatch that makes it cheap The post Loop Engineering for RAG Generation: Iterate top-k One at a Time appeared first on Towards Data Science .

VizRAG: Enhancing Retrieval-Augmented Generation with Hypergraph Visualization

Hypergraph-based RAG systems surpass traditional graph-based approaches by organizing complex n-ary atomic facts among entities, rather than relying solely on binary relationships. Despite the advancements in multimodal large language models (MLLMs) with enhanced visual capabilities, current hypergraph-based RAG frameworks predominantly restrict knowledge retrieval and reconstruction to a unimodal, text-centric paradigm.

Physics-Aware Complex-Valued State Space Model with Scattering-Prior Feature Modulation for PolSAR Image Classification

Polarimetric synthetic aperture radar (PolSAR) image classification is a representative task for physics-aware GeoAI, where land-cover semantics are closely coupled with electromagnetic scattering mechanisms. Many existing complex-valued networks can preserve amplitude-phase information, but they are often limited in long-range spatial dependency modeling and usually incorporate polarimetric priors only as input-level or shallow auxiliary features.

Dynamic Loss Balancing for Joint SOH and RUL Prediction of Lithium-Ion Batteries via a Rotary SOH-Injected Prior Battery Transformer

arXiv:2607. 18329v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: The deployment of reliable lithium-ion battery management systems is crucial for accelerating electrification, yet the joint prognosis of State of Health (SOH) and Remaining Useful Life (RUL) remains severely hindered by task heteroscedasticity.
