Alignment, interpretability, red-teaming, bias and privacy: the research on what these systems do when they misbehave.
arXiv:2607. 08014v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Federated learning (FL) is a collaborative learning scheme to train deep learning models, where collaborating parties can consolidate their models without sharing local data with other parties, hence preserving data privacy.
Algorithmic fairness methods are increasingly used to identify and mitigate bias in machine learning models, yet most approaches are evaluated in isolation and along single demographic axes. This limits practical guidance for selecting fairness strategies, where disparities may arise across intersectional subgroups and across multiple stages of the modeling lifecycle.
Accurate 3D terrain maps are essential for emergency response when assessing wildfire hazards. However, wildfire-prone regions often span vast areas where conventional reconstruction methods underperform.
Reinforcement learning increasingly relies on an LLM judge to score each rubric criterion, and that judge acts as the reward model during training. Before such a signal can be trusted, we need to know how capable the judge must be and how biased it is.
As agentic AI systems are increasingly applied to cyber-physical environments, their evaluation requires assessment of both task performance and trustworthiness. In decentralized energy markets, autonomous agents may improve market utility, but may also exploit invalid physical data, create artificial liquidity, and produce unstable governance decisions.
The operational integrity of complex industrial systems relies on precise anomaly detection and diagnosis. The vast majority of existing methods narrowly focus on capturing temporal similarities of representations, often overlooking the disruption of internal causal relationships, which characterizes system failures and latent anomalies.
Text-to-image (T2I) models have been shown to exhibit social biases. Prior work has mainly focused on gender, skin tone, and cultural representation within restricted occupational associations, and emerging benchmarks increasingly incorporate these dimensions.
We present a Procrustes-conditioned Joint End-to-end Top-K Sparse Autoencoder (SAE) for extracting cross-seed universal features from independently trained BERT models. Cross-seed feature universality is a fundamental challenge in mechanistic interpretability: because dictionary learning is non-convex, independently trained networks learn misaligned feature spaces, so apparently identical features may differ by random initialization.
Personality recognition has traditionally been constrained by theory-dependent formulations, where models are trained to fit predefined psychological taxonomies rather than uncovering shared underlying behavioral structure. This limits generalization, as personality itself is better understood as theory-invariant, while existing annotations reflect only partial and sometimes inconsistent views of the same latent traits.
While Large Language Models (LLMs) have become essential productivity tools, their integration into workflows without adequate safeguards creates significant risks. This paper proposes an open-source, privacy-focused, user-facing firewall designed to secure both web-based and programmatic LLM interactions.
The privacy requirements of medical data and its substantial variations across organs and modalities hinder the clinical implementation of medical AI. Federated learning (FL) is a feasible approach to overcome these challenges.
Privacy-preserving clustering is critical for analyzing sensitive data in healthcare, cybersecurity, and enterprise applications, where maintaining data confidentiality must be balanced with analytical performance. This paper presents Equivariant Quantum Clustering (EQC), a parameter-efficient framework that integrates symmetry-aware quantum circuits with differential privacy to improve the privacy-utility tradeoff.
arXiv:2607. 06612v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Federated Learning (FL) enables multiple clients to collaboratively train machine learning models while retaining data locality, thereby enhancing user privacy.
arXiv:2607. 07527v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Artificial intelligence (AI) is a double-edged sword: while it has achieved remarkable success across a wide range of domains, its deployment also calls for effective oversight and regulation, for which the detection of AI-related content and artifacts is perhaps the most direct and cost-effective approach.
arXiv:2607. 06603v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: The notion of algorithmic fairness has been actively explored from various aspects of fairness, such as counterfactual fairness (CF) and group fairness (GF).
arXiv:2604. 01577v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We study out of distribution generalization in streaming tasks where models are trained on short sequences but must operate over much longer, unknown horizons under bounded memory.
