Stochastic Push-Pull achieves linear speedup with respect to the network size $n$ on static strongly connected digraphs, but whether this speedup persists on time-varying networks remains unclear. In this work, we construct a quadratic decentralized problem on period-two networks showing that stochastic Push-Pull may f...
Trajectory transfer from rollout to training affects both learning quality and system efficiency in large language model reinforcement learning (RL). Enforcing batch-wide training requirements can delay the admission of completed trajectories, resulting in higher architectural staleness: the additional parameter-versio...
Spoken native language (L1) identification for second language learners has traditionally relied on acoustic attributes of speech. Comparatively little attention has been paid to analysing speech transcripts for L1 traces. In this paper, we present a study of L1 identification using both speech and corresponding transc...
Geographic regions are multimodal: satellite imagery captures visual morphology, text conveys human-interpretable semantics, and map structures describe urban context. Existing geospatial contrastive methods typically align image-text or image-location pairs, underusing structured map data. We introduce GeoLEON-CLIP, a...

The interior sound of an electric vehicle is a superposition of several distinct noise contributions - wind noise, tire noise, powertrain (electric drive unit and inverter) noise, and auxiliary-drive noise - whose relative balance governs both the overall loudness and the perceived sound quality in the vehicle interior...
High-fidelity Reynolds-averaged Navier--Stokes (RANS) simulations remain a standard tool for aerodynamic analysis, yet each solve on an unstructured mesh is computationally expensive, making many-query tasks such as design exploration, optimization, and multi-condition evaluation costly. Neural operators provide mesh-f...
Developing robust vision models requires large amounts of annotated data, especially for tasks involving fine-grained class distinctions under variable environmental conditions. Even in domains with numerous existing datasets, differences in annotation formats, label definitions and targeted learning tasks hinder data...
Quality inspection of sugar beets after harvest and storage is critical to preserve sugar content and ensure optimal processing efficiency. The transfer of harvested beets to field clamps or trucks provides an opportunity to visually inspect individual beets automatically on loader conveyors. However, this is a challen...
Concentration inequalities for time series usually involve unknown quantities measuring dependence. This prevents their direct use as confidence bounds, or as criteria for learning algorithms. Recent works proved empirical concentration inequalities for stationary Markov chains, where the unknown quantities are estimat...
Looped language models run each token through the same layers several times, and each run is one iteration. To save compute, an extra layer, the halting head, gives after each iteration the probability that the token stops there, so that easy tokens can stop early. Pretraining models from scratch, up to 1.3B parameters...
Fixed-window Vision Transformer (ViT) decoders run at deployment resolution as overlapping tiles: every token in an overlap band is processed by several full decoder instances. In the 2.4B-parameter MiniMax-H3 video decoder, about half of all per-token computation is duplicated. Removing the tiles fails because attenti...
Recent robot manipulation policies commonly predict continuous action chunks directly from observations, without explicitly modeling reusable structure in the action space. However, manipulation demonstrations often contain recurring short-horizon motion patterns that are shared across tasks. We introduce \textsc{RoboC...
A machine-learning approach called CheMeleon provides a practical way to develop new drugs or other molecules with much less detailed, expensive experimentation.
