Alignment, interpretability, red-teaming, bias and privacy: the research on what these systems do when they misbehave.
arXiv:2608. 02480v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: With AI systems gaining more access to individuals' information, it is important to protect privacy when reporting statistical answers.
arXiv:2608. 02446v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Relevance evaluation plays a crucial role in personalized search systems, serving as a guardrail alongside user engagement metrics to ensure that search results align with user queries and intent.
arXiv:2504. 21296v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Graph learning has evolved into Augmented Graph Learning (AGL) by integrating specialized machine learning (ML) techniques.
arXiv:2608. 01473v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Multimodal large language models (MLLM) for surgical scene understanding typically inject hundreds of dense visual tokens into a language model, leading to costly inference and limited spatial traceability for generated answers.
arXiv:2603. 28201v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: We revisit the standard perturbation-based approach of Abernethy et al.
arXiv:2607. 27594v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Post-training alignment in large reasoning models (LRMs) has significantly improved their adaptability to diverse safety compliance settings.
arXiv:2603. 13418v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Structured pruning is widely applied to compress large language models (LLMs), but its performance depends heavily on how neuron importance is estimated.
arXiv:2510. 21457v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Estimating heterogeneous treatment effects in network settings is complicated by interference, meaning that the outcome of an instance can be influenced by the treatment status of others.
arXiv:2608. 02289v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Realistic and diverse trajectory generation is central to enabling higher levels of vehicle automation.
Recent advances in Diffusion Transformers (DiTs) have enabled remarkable progress in visual synthesis, benefiting from their superior scalability. To facilitate DiTs' capability of capturing meaningful internal representations, recent works such as REPA incorporate external pretrained encoders for representation alignment.
Frontier AI model developers increasingly rely on layered safeguards to prevent catastrophic misuse, but little public evidence exists on how much protection these safeguards provide, or how consistently across developers. We introduce the FAR.
Merchant risk control at large payment platforms screens tens of millions of merchants daily, where false positives harm legitimate merchants and false negatives leave harmful activity undetected. The hardest cases require jointly understanding a merchant's textual profile and long behavioral sequence.
Revenue forecasts guide acquisition budgets, demand planning, and customer-based valuations, yet an aggregate forecast does not show whether change reflects acquisition, repeat purchasing, spending per order, or offsetting movements. Using weekly transaction panels for 966 companies in 25 industries, the authors develop the Customer-Based Multi-task Transformer (CBMT), which learns shared structure, retains separate primitive forecasts, and aligns their combination with downstream revenue.
3D point cloud registration in laparoscopic surgery estimates the transformation between an intraoperative organ reconstructed from video and its preoperative mesh. Because ground-truth transformations are unavailable for real data, supervised networks are trained on synthetic organ pairs.
By leveraging data from video-based perception systems, intelligent transportation systems (ITS) support safety-critical applications that improve road safety. However, adversaries may manipulate video frames to compromise downstream perception modules, causing failures in safety-critical functions and increasing risks to vulnerable road users.
Sequential decision-making in real-world applications often involves uncertainty about the environment's model. Uncertain Markov decision processes (UMDPs) represent the possible environments as a set of MDPs with shared states and actions but potentially different transition probabilities and rewards.
Can scientific abduction occur without continuous sensorimotor embodiment? Recent arguments in AI and philosophy of science hold that genuine hypothesis generation requires an agent continuously coupled to the physical world.
With AI systems gaining more access to individuals' information, it is important to protect privacy when reporting statistical answers. Equally important is to privatize the reporting of uncertainty in such answers.
Trust is fundamental in modern regulatory ecosystems, and compliance checking plays a critical role in fostering that trust. Regulatory compliance verification is essential for businesses operating in highly controlled environments, as it ensures alignment with sector-specific guidelines across domains such as financial reporting, data privacy, and cybersecurity.
Parameter-Efficient Fine-tuned (PEFT) models are frequently downloaded from open repositories by practitioners. This widespread practice creates a significant attack surface, as malicious actors can publish backdoored models that induce specific behaviors in response to predefined triggers.
