Coupled Graph--Policy Distillation for Personalized Medication Safety in Older Adults with Multimorbidity

arXiv:2608. 09443v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language model (LLM) agents can support medication review between clinical visits, but safe choices for older adults with multimorbidity depend on conditions, medications, and geriatric risks that users may omit.

OD-Gear: Online Decomposition and Group Sampling for Expert-Guided Adversarial Routing in Scalable Capacitated Vehicle Routing

arXiv:2602. 00488v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Solving large-scale capacitated vehicle routing problems (CVRP) is hindered by the high complexity of classical heuristics and the limited generalization of neural solvers.

From Fake to Real: Pretraining on Balanced Synthetic Images to Prevent Spurious Correlations in Image Recognition

arXiv:2308. 04553v4 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Visual recognition models are prone to learning spurious correlations induced by a biased training set where certain conditions $B$ (\eg, Indoors) are over-represented in certain classes $Y$ (\eg, Big Dogs).

Are Latent Reasoning Models Easily Interpretable?

arXiv:2604. 04902v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Latent reasoning models (LRMs) have attracted significant research interest due to their low inference cost (relative to explicit reasoning models) and theoretical ability to explore multiple reasoning paths in parallel.
