Emergency Department Revisit Quality Review Screening: Exploring Human Decision-Making and Artificial Intelligence Support

An exploratory, retrospective study of randomly selected ED visits to a multihospital health system having an ED revisit within 1-14 days to the same health system finds that the KGA may enable enhancing the scope and yield of screening without substantially increasing reviewer workload.

Beyond One-Size-Fits-All: Sample-Adaptive Strategy Routing for Vision Token Pruning in MLLMs

VIsion Pruning Router is proposed, a lightweight VIsion Pruning Router that adaptively selects the pruning strategy predicted to be best suited to each input at a specified pruning level that proves effective across various MLLM backbones and yields consistent gains on unseen benchmarks, highlighting the potential of s...

Active Adaptation, Not Static Defense: Temporal Dynamics of Preventative Steering in Adversarial Fine-Tuning

It is shown that preserving or reinjecting the weight offset fails to maintain protection, indicating that preventative steering relies on active adaptation rather than a static defense, and proposes Progressive Intensity Scheduling (PIS), which improves safety robustness over static-strength steering while reducing ha...

Modality-Decoupled Federated Learning for Privacy-Preserving Embodied Intelligence in 6G

FedMVLA is proposed, a modality-decoupled FL framework for privacy-preserving embodied intelligence in 6G networks that incorporates three mechanisms: modality-aware federated aggregation (MAFA), modality-aware privacy allocation (MAPA), and modality-aware communication compression (MACO), together with a modality-slic...

Beyond Surface Imitation: Contrastive Modeling for Reasoning Path Alignment in Multimodal In-Context Learning

A new multimodal ICL framework is proposed that combines contrastive demonstration modeling with the self-refinement capability of MLLMs and consistently improves MLLM performance, with particularly notable gains on visual question answering (VQA).

OntologyAligner: Ontology-Aligned Retrieval and Hierarchy-Guided Large Language Model Reranking for Biomedical Ontology Normalization

OntologyAligner is presented, a three-stage framework that combines ontology-aligned retrieval, large language model candidate reranking, and selective hierarchy-guided refinement that offers a generalizable framework for accurate mapping of biomedical text to structured ontology concepts.

Multi-Agent Agentic Graph Learning via Structural Signatures

A multi-agent agentic graph learning framework that partitions the graph into communities and assigns an independent agent to each community for region-specific specialization and shows that MAAGL outperforms SOTA AGL methods.

“Agreeableness Effect” (AI Sycophancy)The tendency for large language models, which are optimized to be cooperative, to affirm a user’s premise or framing

What Does a Missing Exclusion Clause Cost? Measuring the False-Positive Burden of LLM-Generated Detection Rules

Large language models now write detection rules, and the work evaluating them asks whether the rules catch attacks. It does not ask what they cost on a quiet day. That cost sits in the exclusion clause the "alert when X, except when Y" half of a rule, which encodes local knowledge of what is benign here. Prior work rep...
