TOUR: A Trajectory-Level Unlearning Benchmark for Offline Reinforcement Learning

arXiv:2607. 21111v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Offline Reinforcement Learning (RL) agents are trained on fixed behavioral trajectories, which makes trajectory-level deletion important when selected data must be removed after training.

Enhancing Explainable Cardiac Diagnosis with Guide-Grounded Multimodal LLMs

arXiv:2607. 20814v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The electrocardiogram (ECG) is a cornerstone of cardiac as- sessment, yet clinical deployment of deep learning models remains con- strained by limited interpretability and the hallucination risk of large language models (LLMs).

Climate-resilient electric vehicle charging infrastructure for sustainable cities: An interpretable causal-ensemble framework for preventive maintenance and low-carbon mobility

arXiv:2607. 21444v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Reliable electric vehicle (EV) charging infrastructure is a cornerstone of sustainable, low-carbon cities, yet urban climate stress such as extreme heat, heavy precipitation, and humidity increasingly raises equipment fault risk and undermines the resilience of urban energy and mobility services.

How Robust Is Homogeneity Bias in LLMs? Evidence Across Models, Decoding Settings, and Identity Signals

arXiv:2501. 02211v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) reproduce homogeneity bias -- the tendency to portray marginalized groups as more internally similar than dominant groups -- but whether this bias generalizes across models, is stable under different inference settings, or depends on how group identity is signaled remains unstudied.
