WONDER: A Radio World Model-based Negotiation Framework for Multi-Agent UAV Coverage Optimization

A raido World-model-based Optimized Negotiation framework for Distributed UAV covERage (WONDER), which uses a Joint-Embedding Predictive Architecture (JEPA)-based radio world model to learn and predict the incremental radio effect of each candidate trajectory from deployment-available information and builds RadioDynamics, a comprehensive simulation environment that integrates UAV mobility, radio propagation, inter-UAV communication modeling, and digital-twin geometry.

SPSA Hyperparameter Tuning for Variational Quantum Natural Language Inference

Training variational quantum models requires choosing between parameter-shift gradients, which are exact but cost $O(P)$ forward evaluations, and simultaneous perturbation stochastic approximation (SPSA), which uses only two samples but produces high-variance estimates that can degrade optimisation on small supervised tasks. Whether the cheap gradient is usable depends on the variance that results from different choices of the SPSA perturbation scale, learning rate, and gain-decay schedule. We varied those quantities across a broad grid on a 6-qubit, 60-parameter QNLI classifier and compared the best configurations to parameter-shift AdamW and BuresQNG. AdamW-style SPSA with $c_0=0.01$, $\eta=0.10$, $\gamma=0.10$ reached $55\% \pm 11\%$ test accuracy, improving over the default configuration ($49\% \pm 6\%$) but remaining 16-19 percentage points below the parameter-shift baselines because the two-sample SPSA gradient estimate has too much variance for reliable optimisation of 60 parameters in 40 epochs. Classical-gain SPSA and Bures-preconditioned SPSA performed worse, at $51\%$ and $46\%$ respectively. Bures-preconditioning a noisy two-sample SPSA gradient amplifies perturbation noise.

Network Denoising Revisited: A Ricci-Flow-Inspired Graph Diffusion Method

This work proposes Ricci-Diffusion, a curvature-guided graph diffusion method inspired by Ricci flow, which exhibits a Ricci-flow-like evolution, in which relative edge-level curvature modulates local transport in the diffusion kernel and guides edge-weight updates toward a more regular graph geometry.

MITRE-SAGE: A Multi-Agent Cybersecurity Question-Answering Model

This work proposes MITRE-SAGE, a multi-agent retrieval-augmented generation framework that integrates semantic and structural cybersecurity knowledge to improve the reliability and interpretability of LLM-based QA systems and proposes MITRE-QA, a comprehensive benchmark for evaluating LLMs across diverse cybersecurity knowledge tasks.

Which CS1 Students Will Fail? Identifying Digital Markers from Learning Analytics in Computer Systems and Architecture Using Weighted Academic Momentum and Interaction Logs

Results demonstrate that simple digital markers can power a practical early-warning system by the fifth week of the semester, and confirm that weighted academic momentum is the strongest predictor, followed by its interaction with LMS engagement.

ComNetX: Local Hierarchical Adaptation for Dynamic Community Detection

The results show that ComNetX can preserve the quality of strong modularity-based solvers while reducing update time on large graphs: in paired runs on the largest real graph, Local Leiden keeps final modularity within 0.006 of full-snapshot recomputation while achieving a 41.9 +/- 0.2x speedup.

Intent-Driven Dynamic Chunking: Segmenting Documents to Reflect Predicted Information Needs

Intent-Driven Dynamic Chunking (IDC) is introduced, a novel approach that uses predicted user queries to guide document segmentation and aligning document structure with anticipated information needs significantly boosts retrieval performance, particularly for long and heterogeneous documents.

The concentration game: Bayesian updating, regret, and information

A two-player zero-sum repeated game between a learner and nature whose value identity generates Bayesian updating and an exact accounting of exponential-weights regret at once is given, and supplies the comparator-class variational form that a wide class of concentration phenomena share.
