Alignment, interpretability, red-teaming, bias and privacy: the research on what these systems do when they misbehave.
arXiv:2608. 09972v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: First-generation AI weather models are often reported to underperform at extremes, mostly in reanalysis-based evaluations of deterministic regression systems.
arXiv:2608. 09944v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Modern web interfaces are increasingly difficult to use with screen readers, particularly when pages update dynamically or hide important structure behind visual layout.
arXiv:2608. 10393v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models have shown strong capabilities in controlling robots across diverse manipulation tasks.
arXiv:2608. 10042v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Tool-use LLMs are increasingly asked to act on users' behalf, but existing benchmarks usually focus on profile recall, style imitation, generic tool use, or response-level personalization.
arXiv:2608. 10494v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Earth observation (EO) agents construct scientifically valid tool workflows and ground their conclusions in current geospatial evidence.
arXiv:2608. 10237v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Contrastive learning and Siamese embedding models have become the foundation of modern verification systems, where decisions are governed not by discrete classification boundaries, but by relational geometry in embedding space.
arXiv:2608. 10537v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Sparse autoencoders (SAEs) have helped uncover mechanistic explanations for LLM behaviours such as reasoning, jailbreaking etc.
arXiv:2608. 10089v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Bias evaluations often move too quickly from evidence that a model encodes a social association to claims that the same association will alter consequential decisions.
arXiv:2604. 13201v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Large language models are emerging as scientific assistants, but evaluating their ability to reason from empirical data remains challenging.
arXiv:2608. 10056v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Following a target human in crowded environments involves an inherent conflict between staying close to the target and navigating safely among surrounding pedestrians and obstacles.
arXiv:2608. 10532v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Static load balancers cannot mitigate a backend that is degraded rather than down: round-robin and least-connections keep routing traffic to a server returning HTTP 500s until an operator intervenes.
arXiv:2608. 10474v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Popularity bias in recommendation systems arises when a majority user class generates disproportionate interaction data, causing the system to increasingly favour it while degrading recommendation quality for niche users.
arXiv:2608. 10434v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Machine learning-based Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS) have demonstrated superior performance in securing Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) networks.
arXiv:2608. 10332v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Differentiable predictive control (DPC), a self-supervised learning approach for approximating explicit model predictive control (MPC) policies, offers significant computational advantages over online optimization-based MPC.
arXiv:2608. 10403v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Reinforcement learning (RL) has shown promising performance in autonomous driving, yet ensuring the safety of online RL policies remains challenging due to insufficient exposure to safety-critical driving scenes.
arXiv:2608. 10344v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Thermo-mechanical compliant devices are commonly designed with small-strain linear elasticity and temperature-independent material properties, even though they might operate hundreds of kelvin above ambient where both assumptions are questionable.
arXiv:2608. 10669v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language model (LLM) agents combine language-based reasoning with external tools to perform complex tasks.
arXiv:2602. 13319v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Perspective-aware AI requires modeling evolving internal states---goals, emotions, contexts---not merely preferences.
arXiv:2608. 10915v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: After an older adult misses a medication dose, a software agent can send another reminder and an embodied agent can bring the medication.
arXiv:2608. 10621v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Recent research on Large Language Model (LLM) safety has widely adopted guardrails to identify unsafe LLM outputs.
