A Security-Oriented Lifecycle Model for Large Language Model Systems

arXiv:2608. 03626v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large language models are being integrated into critical infrastructure and enterprise workflows at unprecedented scale,yet the lifecycle frameworks governing their development and operations were designed for operational efficiency rather than security analysis.

How Closely Do LLM Reviews Align with Human Peer Review?

arXiv:2608. 03659v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) are increasingly used to generate scientific reviews, yet existing evaluations rarely examine whether different providers align with both conference decisions and human reviewing priorities within the same controlled setting.

A Physics-Flavored Transformer Network for Parametrizing Contraction Dynamics of Engineered Skeletal Muscle Tissues

arXiv:2608. 03927v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Engineered Skeletal Muscle Tissues (ESMs) have become a key structure for biomedical disease modeling and pharmacological screening, yet their functional characterization often relies on simplistic metrics like peak force, discarding critical kinetic information.
