A corrective agentic hybrid RAG and an operations-grounded evaluation for a scientific facility

arXiv:2607. 24663v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Scientific user facilities accumulate decades of operational knowledge that no single search index covers: electronic logbooks, technical documents, internal wikis, operations chat messages, maintenance records, and live control-system data.

DRP-FLR: Data-Driven Assessment of Demand Response Potential for Flexible Load Regulation in Smart Grids

arXiv:2607. 22590v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: The rapid growth of AI workloads and renewable energy resources exacerbates supply-demand imbalance in power systems, making traditional load regulation designed for efficient allocation inadequate and motivating demand response (DR) mechanisms to enable load controllability in smart grids.

EviBack: Search-Agent Reinforcement Learning via Evidence-Constrained Teacher Backoff

arXiv:2607. 23955v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Reinforcement learning enables Agentic RAG systems to learn multi-turn search from verifiable outcome rewards, but all- zero rollout groups provide no comparative signal and may hide useful search behavior.

Self-Attention Dynamics with Rotary Position Embeddings: Twisted States and Explicit Consensus Rates on the Sphere

arXiv:2607. 24502v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Rotary position embeddings (RoPE) modify attention scores through position-dependent rotations, but their effect on normalized token dynamics is not captured by the vanilla spherical self-attention model.
