A self-supervised representation learning framework built on a simple hypothesis: behavioral characteristics associated with identity and learning remain relatively stable over nearby time intervals, which establishes short-term movement as an informative behavioral"fingerprint" for studying learning and individual dif...

We encounter a system through its responses, yet its state concerns how the system is. Predicting further responses promises knowledge beyond what is immediately observed. What that knowledge tells us about the system's state depends on what we mean by a state in the first place. We give this notion a model-relative me...

A novel method is proposed, BMO, that obfuscates model parameters to diversify the decision boundary further resisting cross-node attack while preserving its benign accuracy, and achieves comparable performance in benign accuracy compared with baselines.

OptEP is developed, a scalable continuous relaxation that directly optimizes differentiable expert-selection variables, followed by a lightweight reconstruction-based update of the retained expert weights, demonstrating that reconstruction-driven expert selection and weight adaptation can preserve substantially more of...

Retrieval-augmented QA can fail even when the correct answer is in the retrieved evidence. This can happen when a competing answer satisfies some, but not all, of the question's requirements and is mentioned frequently in the retrieved documents, which can make it appear to be the best-supported answer. To test whether...

MEDIATOR is introduced, a discrete ontology-agnostic tokenizer that maps any clinical concept expressed as text into a shared vector-quantized codebook, turning EHR harmonization into open-vocabulary tokenization without manual mappings or a fixed vocabulary.

Together, these results support qualified reuse of English-built pipelines, but per-domain, per-language validation remains necessary--neither semantic similarity nor self-reported confidence reliably predicts cross-lingual accuracy.

This investigation reveals important limitations of the current methods that try to leverage internal VLM signals to detect hallucinations and suggests that strong detection performance is often driven by detecting language-based hallucinations, and when methods rely on token position, they tend to be less visually gro...

Traffic cameras support useful analysis, but their outputs can reveal private information. Replacing images with text reduces direct visual exposure. It does not place a formal bound on disclosure. The published reinforcement learning and mixture-of-experts framework refines scene descriptions through relevance, covera...
Statistical privacy audits are essential for verifying the theoretical privacy guarantees of differentially private (DP) mechanisms. Auditors typically use Membership Inference Attacks (MIAs) to estimate a lower bound on the true privacy leakage of DP mechanisms at a specified confidence level, which should not exceed...
This work introduces Activation-Space Exploration (ASE), an online method for diversifying training rollouts that builds a structured bank of latent exploration vectors by clustering activation differences between correct and incorrect responses to the same problem.

Drug–target affinity (DTA) prediction plays an important role in computer-aided drug discovery, where reliable computational models can help prioritize compound–protein pairs before experimental validation. A key challenge in DTA prediction is to effectively mine multilevel molecular information from drug structures wh...
