What is causal about causal models and representations?

Causal Bayesian networks are often described as causal because they support reasoning about interventions. Yet interventions are defined in the mathematical model, whereas the resulting model predictions concern the effects of actions in the real world. Consequently, whether and how a causal model makes falsifiable pre...

Rethinking Negative Prompting for Concept Suppression: Unconditional Anchoring and Localized Guidance

Text-to-image diffusion models have rapidly transitioned from research prototypes to widely deployed tools. Along with their impressive capabilities, these models can also generate harmful or undesirable content (e.g., NSFW imagery), motivating practical mechanisms for removing such concepts. Negative prompting, which...

Paint Outside the Box: Synthesizing and Selecting Training Data for Visual Grounding

Visual grounding aims to localize the image regions based on a textual query. Given the difficulty of large-scale data curation, we investigate how to effectively learn visual grounding under data-scarce settings in this paper. To address the data scarcity, we propose a novel framework, POBF (Paint Outside the Box and...

Group-Graph Policy Optimization for Long-Horizon Agentic Reinforcement Learning

Group-based Reinforcement Learning (RL) has significantly enhanced Large Language Models (LLMs) in agentic scenarios. To achieve finer-grained policy updates, recent agentic RL frameworks have shifted from trajectory-level to step-level training. However, long-horizon agentic RL suffers from severe reward sparsity and...

CauTion: Knowing When to Trust LLMs for Ensemble Causal Discovery

Causal discovery from observational data remains challenging due to the fundamental limitations of purely statistical methods, such as statistical distinguishability within equivalence classes and sensitivity to finite sample sizes. While large language models (LLMs) offer a promising source of domain knowledge to comp...

FormInv: A Measurement Protocol for Semantic Invariance in Mathematical Reasoning Benchmarks

A paraphrase-quality audit of MathCheck (ICLR 2025) detected 4 semantically incorrect paraphrases in 129 groups (3.1%); removing them drops GPT-4o from rank 2 to rank 4 and elevates Claude Haiku and DeepSeek V3 above it. Cross-model unanimity found these errors automatically for under $10; in our own dataset the same p...

Human-Centered Learning Mechanics: Observable Entropy Control under Protected-Risk Constraints

Entropy reduction is not a safety criterion: it can leave predictions unchanged or accompany increasing risk for a protected group. We study entropy-regulated learning under separately specified task, risk, and intervention constraints. A noise-calibrated log-determinant functional yields an exact spectral force formul...

STRIDE: Reasoning-Aware Training for Time Series Forecasting

Time Series Foundation Models (TSFMs) excel at numerical forecasting but operate as black boxes lacking qualitative reasoning. Conversely, applying LLMs directly to temporal data introduces a modality gap: text tokenizers fragment continuous numerical values, degrading mathematical relationships and exploding sequence...

MOSAIC: Module Discovery via Sparse Additive Identifiable Causal Learning for Scientific Time Series

MOSAIC (Module discovery via Sparse Additive Identifiable Causal learning), a sparse temporal VAE that integrates temporal CRL identifiability with support recovery over observed variables, enabling interpretable discovery of latent mechanisms in scientific time series.

Learning reveals invisible structure in low-rank RNNs

This work extends the low-rank framework from activity to learning by deriving gradient-descent dynamics directly in a reduced overlap space, forming a closed-form, low-dimensional system of ODEs that governs learning in this space, exact for linear RNNs and asymptotically exact for nonlinear RNNs in the large-$N$ Gaus...

Interpretable experiential learning based on state history and global feedback

A new interpretable experiential learning model based on state history and global feedback is presented. It is capable of learning a behavioral model represented by a transition graph between sets of states, with transitions attributed with utility and evidence count. This model is expected to be suitable for solving r...

CastFlow: Bridging Evidence Acquisition and Accurate Prediction in Agentic Time Series Forecasting

Time series forecasting is a fundamental task in temporal data analytics, and large language model (LLM)-based agents offer a promising paradigm through autonomous tool interaction and evidence-grounded reasoning. However, two fundamental challenges remain: how to acquire forecast-relevant evidence through adaptive too...
