    DisCo Algebra: Why Disintegration and Combination Are Not Inverses

    Xuexing Lu

    We present DisCo algebra---a compositional framework for joint probability built from a symmetric cooperad (disintegration) and a symmetric operad (combination) on the bare family $\mathcal{P}_n=\mathrm{Prob}([0,1]^n)$. No probability integral transform, no external summary functions, no enrichment of objects with conditional kernels. The disintegration side uses block-wise joint CDFs as intrinsic, measure-determined 1D summaries, yielding a lossy compression. The combination side reads the same summaries and reconstructs via regular conditional measures, yielding a lossless embedding. We prove that combination followed by disintegration is the identity on admissible inputs, but disintegration followed by combination is not---the information loss is exactly the conditional KL divergence between the true conditional distribution and the conditionally independent product. This asymmetry reveals a hard limit on how much cross-block dependence can be captured by scalar block summaries.

    Retraining-Free Depth Pruning of Vision Transformers: A Cross Domain Study of Layer Redundancy

    Alessandro Viespoli, Loris Nanni

    Transformer architectures have achieved strong results in natural language processing and computer vision, but their deployment is limited by high computational, memory and storage costs, motivating research into model compression techniques, such as pruning, while preserving performance. Prior work has shown substantial redundancy in large language models (LLMs), and redundancy in vision transformers has also been investigated, but it remains less systematically analyzed than in LLMs. In this work, we extend similarity-based redundancy analysis to vision models by measuring cosine similarity between layer inputs and outputs to identify transformations with minimal impact. We study redundancy patterns across several transformer architectures and find that deep vision transformers such as DINOv2 and SwinV2, like language models, exhibit significant redundancy. We then evaluate how this redundancy can be exploited to improve efficiency, analyzing the trade-off between inference speed and performance degradation under different pruning strategies. Our results show that moderate pruning can yield substantial acceleration with limited impact on accuracy, and that 20% of the DINOv2…

    DiffGA: Steering Frozen Diffusion Models for Materials Design via Evolutionary Search

    Shivang Agarwal, Rodrigo Wang, Kevin Ryczko, Aayush R. Singh

    Steering candidate generation toward user-defined objectives is central to inverse materials design, yet remains difficult when objectives are black-box, changing, or non-differentiable, as in many simulation- and experiment-derived properties. Generative models offer a solution but typically require retraining or fine-tuning for each new objective, demanding labeled data and substantial compute, or rely on differentiable guidance that is brittle to gradient noise and undefined for many practical targets. We present DiffGA, a retraining-free framework that injects evolutionary search into the sampling trajectory of a retrained diffusion model, evolving partially denoised states under an arbitrary black-box oracle. Because oracle evaluation often dominates campaign cost, we couple DiffGA with an on-the-fly Bayesian surrogate that reuses representations from state-of-the-art machine-learned force fields (MLFFs). A Gaussian process is fit during the campaign on the force fields's graph embeddings and, once it demonstrably ranks an unseen generation, replaces expensive property evaluations under an uncertainty-aware acquisition rule, reducing oracle cost with negligible loss of…

    Recurrent In-Context Learning for Tabular Foundation Models

    Tejas Vaidhya, Gaurav Sahu, Irina Rish

    Tabular foundation models adapt to new datasets through in-context learning (ICL), and, like most transformers, they tie computational depth to the number of independently parameterized layers. We ask whether the ICL stage of such a model needs a distinct set of parameters for every layer, or only depth. We introduce Tab-Loop, which replaces the 12 untied ICL blocks of TabICLv2 with 4 tied blocks applied $k$ times and changes nothing else: the encoders, decoder, synthetic prior and training recipe are shared with an untied baseline trained for the same compute. At matched pretraining compute (18.2 EFLOP) and matched inference compute (12 block applications), Tab-Loop matches the baseline with 62\% fewer parameters (10.4M vs.\ 27.6M): held-out log loss is 0.4583 vs.\ 0.4588, mean accuracy on 200 TALENT datasets is 84.10\% vs.\ 83.92\%, and Elo on 38 TabArena datasets is 1409 vs.\ 1396. A 4-block untied control with Tab-Loop's parameter count, which sees 32\% more training tables for the same compute, trails both (83.46\%; Elo 1343). Because weights are shared, depth becomes a choice made at inference. Accuracy rises with the number of loops through the trained range and holds…

    Certify the Decision, Not Every Score: Exact Top-k Selection from Few Evaluations

    Yuhe Sui, Yingzhi Tang

    Choosing a few robust algorithms or schedules can require evaluating every candidate under many adverse scenarios, even though an agent only needs to identify the winners. A predictor may suggest those winners, but cannot rule out a surprise in an unevaluated scenario. We introduce Certified Adaptive Selection (CAS), which returns the exact top-$k$ set as soon as remaining uncertainty cannot change it. CAS keeps guaranteed lower and upper bounds on Expected Shortfall (ES), the average loss in the worst scenarios. Its stopping test compares the worst admissible selected candidate with the best admissible excluded one; for information-disjoint Cartesian intervals this one-cut test is necessary and sufficient. Prediction has a separate role: selecting the next outcome to evaluate, never authorizing the decision. For empirical ES with exact unit-cost queries, we compute in polynomial time the fewest evaluations that could have proved the realized decision in hindsight. Our prediction-guided agent CAS-PG is exact for every predictor, including adversarial ones. On two public algorithm-selection matrices, CAS-PG certifies the exact top three after 630 of 3150 and 981 of 2200 replayed…

    Characterizing the Separability Gap in Prior-Data Fitted Networks

    Julius Kobialka, Manuel Hülskamp, Thomas Nagler, David Rügamer

    Prior-data fitted networks (PFNs) are transformers pretrained on simulated datasets to approximate Bayesian posterior predictive distributions. Standard PFN theory assumes a separable task prior, under which the feature distribution and the mechanism generating labels from features are independent. We show that common PFN priors are non-separable, even in simple settings. Consequently, standard pretraining targets a predictive distribution based on a task posterior updated using both the labeled context and the query features. We characterize its difference from the predictive based on the context posterior alone and show that this difference vanishes under posterior concentration. Under misspecification (i.e., when the true joint distribution lies outside the prior's support), however, prior non-separability can favor better feature fit at the expense of conditional label fit. We illustrate the consequences for feature attribution, Bayesian optimization, and martingale checks of Bayesian behavior. The same dependence also enables PFNs to learn from additional unlabeled observations. We demonstrate this with SemiTabICL, a PFN explicitly pretrained to use these observations, which…

    Mixing Regularization for Average-Reward $Q$-Learning and $Q$-Planning

    Julien Roger, Sam Bodmer, Jian Qian, Benjamin Riviere

    The average-reward setting for reinforcement learning is challenging because its Bellman operator is known to contract in span only when the underlying Markov chain is mixing. Whereas existing work typically assumes a contraction property, e.g., through environment mixing, we consider the setting where we are given a reward-agnostic $m$-step mixing policy, and we control the contraction and exploration properties of the learned policy by regularizing toward the mixing policy. We provide finite-time analysis of $Q$-learning algorithms that can be instantiated with multiple choices of regularization, with guarantees measured with respect to the regularized fixed point. Our framework exposes novel regularizer-dependent objects that control contraction, exploration, and operator bias. In the one-step setting, our rates match the best known rates for $Q$-iteration and synchronous $Q$-learning, and for $m$-step mixing we derive new rates. We also study $Q$-planning variants, and show that planning acts as time-localized learning, where the planning horizon $H$ trades off the bias from the boundary value against the sample complexity. Finally, we present numerical studies validating the…

    Too Late to Prune: Generative AI, the Screen, and Team Creative Decisions

    Difang Huang, Shumin Yu, Fadong Chen, Weihua Zhou

    Generative AI makes options cheap and shifts the bottleneck of creative work from generating options to screening them. We argue that AI's value depends on whether its options arrive before or after the team's screen. In our model, early options compete for a place in the portfolio; late options arrive after that competition and are kept unscreened. In a preregistered experiment, we randomly assigned 148 three-person teams to five schedules of access to the same language model during a product-design task with timed search and selection stages. Moving the same 15 minutes of access from search to selection lowered expert-rated creativity by 0.62 standard deviations, although teams used the model at similar rates. Platform logs locate the difference at the screen. Early access enlarged the pool of ideas fivefold, and teams pruned it. Late-access teams reached the screen with the same small pool as teams without AI and then searched again, devoting 29% of their selection-stage queries to generating new options, compared with 11% for teams with access throughout. Late access added breadth, not quality: these teams submitted 73% more proposals than did teams without AI. Language-model…

    Fitting Every Hint Is Not Enough: Premature Floods in Recurrent Algorithmic Reasoners

    Amin Najafgholizadeh, Mohsen Afsharchi

    Recurrent algorithmic reasoners are trained with per-step hints on small graphs and run for many more steps on large ones. On breadth-first search in SALSA-CLRS, we find that a reasoner can reproduce every training hint and still fail on deep graphs: after some exact steps, it declares nodes reached before the search gets there. We call this a premature flood and trace two routes to it. In our GRU processor with a degree input, the flood is carried in the hidden state and set off when that input is in the tail of the training distribution. Setting the input higher at inference brings the flood sooner, and none of the six flooding models counts steps. Without the input, summing the neighbors' states instead of averaging them also breaks the processor. In the benchmark's own GIN and PGN, trained with its code, some seeds instead flood from a fixed step, on sparse and dense graphs alike. Clamping the degree input or adding 200 dense training graphs removes every failure of the GRU processor. Detaching the state between steps avoids the flood in that processor (0 of 23 seeds, against 6 under full backpropagation) but not with sums or a residual update, and two published remedies…

    Single-Sample Decoding of a Two-Layer Sound-Word Canvas Model for Thai Klon Pad

    Worasait Suwannik

    We present a generator of Thai klon pad verse, one stanza from a short topic, and evaluate it against human verse on held-out topics. The generator is a masked language model initialised from WangchanBERTa over a fixed canvas with two layers: a sound layer of pronounced syllables, where rhyme, tone and syllable count are enforced as hard masks, and a word layer of whole words, so that no word is cut into written pieces. Decoding commits one cell at a time and samples at temperature 0.4; one sample is drawn per topic, with no selection, reranking or repair. On 78 held-out topics never used in development, judged by three independent runs of a frozen LLM judge in the same pools as the human stanzas from which the topics were written, 70.5% of the generated stanzas pass form, lexical cleanness of all four lines and topic alignment together, against 76.9% for the human stanzas (difference -6.4 points, 95% CI [-19.2, +6.4]). Cleanness is level with human (85.9% vs. 87.2%), and the stanzas pass form and cleanness together slightly more often than the human ones (+3.8 points, [-6.4, +14.1]); the difference lies in alignment (84.6% vs. 91.0%), on topics that were written from the human…

    Metric-Driven Reinforcement Learning for Object Hallucination Reduction in LVLM-Based Image Captioning

    Thanh Nguyen, Hee Suk Yoon, Tung Minh Luu, Eunseop Yoon, Chang D. Yoo

    Large Vision-Language Models (LVLMs) have excelled in joint visual and language understanding, particularly in image captioning. However, LVLMs remain prone to object hallucination, describing non-existent entities in the given image. Previous remedies, including dataset-enhanced supervised training and reinforcement learning from human feedback, show promise but rely heavily on costly human involvement, limiting scalability. To address this, we propose a reinforcement learning framework to mitigate object hallucination in LVLM-based image captioning, driven entirely by natural language processing (NLP) metrics. While optimizing reinforcement learning solely on NLP metrics offers scalability, it also introduces pitfalls: reward hacking, sparse feedback, and costly training. Our framework sidesteps these by introducing an Object Consistency Score (OCS) capturing both correctness and coverage of objects, incorporating KL-regularization for denser token-level guidance, and designing a lightweight PPO variant that fine-tunes adapters atop a frozen LVLM backbone, achieving efficiency and stability. Extensive experiments on the InstructBLIP baseline demonstrate the effectiveness and…

    HodgePhaseNet: Discrete Hodge Decomposition of Semantic Flows in Transformer Attention

    Kiyotaka Kasubuchi, Kazuo Fukiya

    WavePhaseNet introduced frequency-resolved semantic representations, QuantumPhaseNet introduced gauge-covariant phase connections, and ModularPhaseNet made a finite cyclic phase channel and its cycle holonomy computable in an ordinary Transformer. These constructions are complementary, yet they do not by themselves separate an observed collection of pairwise relations into a globally consistent direction, circulation around local compositions, and circulation that persists around a larger unfilled cycle. HodgePhaseNet addresses this separation by representing semantic transitions as an antisymmetric real-valued 1-cochain on a finite oriented simplicial complex. With vertex-edge incidence matrix $B_1$ and edge-face incidence matrix $B_2$, every such field has a unique orthogonal decomposition $Ω= B_1^TΦ+ B_2Ψ+ H$, where $B_1H=0$ and $B_2^TH=0$. The three component fields are unique even when their potentials are not. We give explicit projectors, a sparse implementation, integrability and gauge results, a verified numerical example, and a redesigned attention interface. The attention bias is defined on allowed ordered query-key pairs, remains consistent under arbitrary choices of…

    FleetPilot: Fine-Grained Steering Empowers Real-World LLM Personalization

    Kounianhua Du, Jianxing Liu, Kangning Zhang, Wenxiang Jiao, Yuan Lu +5

    With the rapid evolution of large language models (LLMs), there is an increasing demand for effective personalization techniques that can adapt model behavior to individual user preferences. Personalized LLMs must infer a user's query-dependent preferences from limited, heterogeneous, and evolving interaction histories. Existing approaches rely primarily on in-context personalization, parametric adaptation, or personalized reward modeling, but respectively incur recurring costs in context management, model optimization and deployment, or multi-candidate generation and scoring. These limitations become particularly restrictive when user observations are sparse and the preference evidence relevant to each query varies across contexts and over time. To address these challenges, we propose \modelname, a fine-grained and instance-tailored steering framework that dynamically generates sample-level interference vectors from user data and injects them into the model's forward pass for personalized adaptation. Our approach introduces: match contrast that produces user-relevant signals, fine-grained steering component that captures nuanced signals by hooking activations from attention and…

    SEEK: Agentic Knowledge Graph Retrieval for Secure Code Generation

    Varun Gadey, Markus Tohn, Lichao Wu, Ahmad-Reza Sadeghi, Alexandra Dmitrienko

    Large Language Models (LLMs) can generate functionally correct code while introducing exploitable security weaknesses, particularly when developers specify functionality without explicit security requirements. Recent state-of-the-art approaches mitigate this problem using external security knowledge, but largely rely on flat similarity-based retrieval over independent artifacts, making it difficult to infer the relevant vulnerability space and retrieve targeted knowledge when direct matches are unavailable. We propose SEEK, an agentic Graph RAG framework for secure code generation that constructs a security knowledge graph using the Common Weakness Enumeration (CWE) taxonomy as its structural backbone and injects it with curated real-world CVE vulnerability-fix instances. At inference time, a Planner Agent predicts potential CWE weaknesses associated with the developer query, which guide Graph Scoping to restrict retrieval to relevant regions of the CWE taxonomy before deterministic multi-faceted candidate ranking. A Selection Agent subsequently validates the predicted weaknesses and retrieved candidates prior to code generation. Across five open-source LLMs, we evaluate SEEK in…

    SkillHorizon: Constructing Long-Horizon Agent Tasks through Skill Composition

    Yuxuan Liu, Zhaochen Su, Hangyu Guo, Shijue Huang, Zhixiong Zhang +9

    Long-horizon agents must complete workflows in which later activities depend on earlier outputs and changes to shared state. A key challenge for evaluation is to expand task requirements and their dependencies while keeping tasks executable and outcomes verifiable. We introduce SkillHorizon, a benchmark that constructs long-horizon tasks through skill composition in seven business environments. Its generators use domain-specific rules to turn reusable skill procedures into concrete business activities. These activities are connected through input-output dependencies, shared resources, and state updates, allowing workload and coordination demands to grow together. Successful reference executions validate task feasibility and measure interaction workload, while programmatic evaluators assess local completion and whole-task success. We evaluate five language models on 1,050 tasks with reference interaction workloads ranging from 64K to 1M tokens. Across these scales, mean local-goal completion falls from 90.4% to 46.8%, as completed work fails to keep pace with growing requirements. At larger workloads, agents more often submit unsuccessful final answers with substantial work…

    Cross-Material Magnetic Core Loss Prediction via Operating-Condition Matching and Partial Optimal Transport

    Cong Yao, Yu Zheng, Zehao Hou, Rui Xu

    Cross-material magnetic core loss prediction requires adapting to new material responses with limited measurements. Global feature alignment overlooks differences in source and target excitation coverage. This motivates selecting comparable samples and controlling each source measurement's alignment contribution. This paper proposes T-PCOT, a Transformer transfer method based on condition-supported partial optimal transport. Frequency, flux excursion, temperature, and waveform descriptors define a sparse graph of comparable operating conditions. A capacity-constrained transport plan distributes alignment across source measurements and leaves costly target mass unmatched. The plan is constructed from measured inputs before training and guides local waveform-feature consistency. An importance-weighted sampling scheme preserves both uniform source regression and the transport objective during minibatch optimization. Experiments on three material pairs and three target label budgets show that T-PCOT reduces mean relative error (MRE) and 95th-percentile error (P95) relative to Transformer-based multiple-kernel maximum mean discrepancy (T-MKMMD) in all nine comparisons. Macro MRE…

    AD-GS: Anatomical Density-guided 3D Gaussian Splatting for Sparse-View Dental CBCT Reconstruction

    Zonglin Li, Kexian Xie, Feiran Li, Chu Zhou, Yixing Huang +3

    Sparse-view Cone-Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) reconstruction is essential for reducing radiation dose and scan effort, but remains underconstrained due to limited projection information. Recent 3D Gaussian Splatting (3DGS)-based CBCT reconstruction methods rely on gradient-driven densification, which becomes unstable under sparse acquisition and often leads to over-smoothed structures. We propose AD-GS, an Anatomical Density-guided 3D Gaussian Splatting framework that formulates Gaussian densification as an attenuation-aware Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) sampling process. By interpreting Gaussians as samples from an underlying anatomical attenuation distribution, AD-GS adaptively concentrates representation capacity in high-attenuation regions, enabling sharper structural boundaries under sparse projections. To further constrain reconstruction, we incorporate a semantic regularization based on zero-shot features from Segment Anything in Medical Images, enforcing multi-view consistency through semantic priors. Experiments on the ToothFairy3 dental CBCT dataset demonstrate that AD-GS achieves superior structural fidelity and boundary preservation compared with existing…

    HiPAD: A Unified Gait, Audio-Visual, and Personality Fusion Network for Depression Detection, with a Hierarchical Personality Ablation and the Calibration Limits of Domain-Adapted LLMs

    Karol Chlasta, Piotr Struzik

    We present HiPAD, a single fusion network submitted to all six sub-tracks of the MPDD-AVG 2026 depression-detection challenge, covering the Elder and Young cohorts and three modality sets (gait, audio-visual, and both), each combined with personality descriptions. The network encodes each available modality with a shared BiLSTM, zero-pads absent modalities, and applies cross-modal attention only when at least two of gait, audio and video are present. Personality, which dominates our results, is kept out of the attention and fused by concatenation. Because the architecture is identical in every sub-track, differences between them reflect the data rather than the model, and we use this to study three questions. Our main finding is that the personality description, roughly 150 tokens about who the subject is, carries more depression signal than audio, video, and gait combined: gait plus personality alone (TLS 0.647) beats every configuration that includes audio and video. First, a four-level ablation of the personality description (L0-L3) quantifies this: removing every personality-derived feature, including the Big Five scores that earlier MPDD ablations keep, lowers the…

    Humans vs. Machines: A Comparison With AI Agents in Software Reverse Engineering

    Samuele Doria, Stefano De Rosa, Ruoyu Wang, Zion Leonahenahe Basque, Eleonora Losiouk +1

    Can an autonomous AI agent reverse engineer a binary as well as a skilled human analyst? Do they adopt the same strategy, and can agents scale to real-world programs? We compare human and LLM-based software reverse engineering (SRE): nine models tackle two compact static-analysis challenges previously solved by human analysts, scored with a common understanding rubric, and we record their complete interactions with IDA Pro. This lets us compare not only what humans and agents recover, but also how they investigate a binary. The best agents (GPT-5.5 Pro, Claude Opus 4.8, and Kimi K3) achieve statistically human-competitive understanding on both tasks, while weaker models remain far behind. Ablations show that the gap depends on code representation and workflow demands, not on model capability alone: open-weight models improve substantially with richer code representations, whereas frontier models show no significant change. Similar success rates hide different workflows. Humans repeatedly revisit functions and follow local program structure; strong agents jump across the binary, retrieve information broadly, and rarely return to inspected code, a behavior we call greedy fetching.…

    AlphaRLM: Aligning Language Models for Literature-Grounded Symbolic Factor Discovery

    Jie Huang, Yuecheng Hong, Yao Chen, Hao Zhong, Linfeng Xiao +4

    Formulaic alpha mining seeks to discover executable expressions that capture predictive market signals in a vast, noisy search space. Recent LLM-based approaches use prompting, iterative search, or seed-factor evolution, leaving direct factor construction through policy learning less explored. To address this, we introduce AlphaRLM, a reinforcement-learning framework that trains LLMs to construct executable symbolic factors from financial literature without input factor expressions. AlphaRLM incorporates Literature-Guided Operator Assembly (LEGO), which conditions factor construction on literature-derived ideas and executable operators, providing semantic priors for exploration. It further aligns the generation policy with market feedback through executable-validity and grouped-return-separation rewards that capture non-monotonic structures across factor quantiles. Extensive experiments on CSI 300, CSI 1000, and S&P 500 show that AlphaRLM outperforms strong factor-mining and LLM-based baselines in annualized excess return. Notably, the 8B model achieves strong cross-market performance, highlighting the promise of literature-conditioned, market-aligned factor generation.
