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.
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 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.
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 .
Frozen perception foundation models encode rich geometric, semantic, and dynamic knowledge. Yet narrow conditioning interfaces may attenuate task-relevant cues, while static fusion cannot adjust expert contributions to each scene.
The rapid growth of biomedical knowledge has made the validation of automatically generated biological annotations a major bottleneck in biomedical curation. While computational methods can rapidly produce large numbers of candidate annotations, determining which are biologically valid still requires costly expert review.
The aim of this paper is twofold. First, it investigates whether newer generative models are getting better at pastiching contemporary artworks.
Retrieval-augmented large language models frequently face contexts that interleave useful evidence with misleading statements or instruction-like content. Blanket refusal discards valid evidence, whereas uncritical adoption yields incorrect or unsafe answers.
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.
Sequential recommendation (SR) models capture continuously observed behavior, but a returning user may have no interactions for months or years. We define this setting as Zero-Observation Reactivation: the user has a pre-gap history, while the platform observes no behavioral signals during a macro-gap Delta t.
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.
