Rank Measures of Fine-Tuning Updates Need a Noise Baseline

The baselines show that a random update of the same size leaves that rank almost unchanged while wrecking the model, and that an edit built on the effective rank of the update has no measurable effect in the authors' tests.

CF-NODE: Counterfactual Spatial Node Intervention for Test-Time Adaptation Under Domain Shift, Evaluated Across Five Diabetic Retinopathy Datasets

CF-NODE outperforms all four methods with statistically significant improvements over the second-best method, improves AUC on every target domain, and attains the highest average AUC and macro-F1, delivering stronger grade discrimination together with more balanced recognition across DR severity levels.

Generative adversarial networks with Monte Carlo dropout uncertainty quantification for structural health monitoring: Fibre Bragg grating data augmentation comparison in Hawk T1A aircraft

The signal generation capabilities of a novel data augmentation framework are examined in aerospace structures. First, the framework learns class-conditional temporal and spectral characteristics of the measured structural responses. It uses conditional generative adversarial network training and Monte Carlo dropout un...

TRACE: Transformer Residual Activation Codebook Encoding for Communication-efficient Distributed Edge Inference

Transformer Residual Activation Codebook Encoding (Trace), a framework that eliminates the received data downstream computation and enables communication--computation overlap and reduces a key latency bottleneck in distributed Transformer inference.

BOLT: Multi-Bottleneck Bound-Guided Learning for Flexible Job-Shop Scheduling with Time Lags and Resource-Coupled Transport

BOLT (bound-oriented learning for transport-coupled scheduling) builds a lower bound from chain, machine-capacity, and fleet-capacity relaxations that certifies a completed schedule's suboptimality gap without a solver.

CGDT-CESN: Correlation-Guided and Dynamics-Trained Clustered Echo State Network for Multivariate Time-Series Prediction

The proposed Correlation-Guided and Dynamics-Trained Clustered Echo State Network (CGDT-CESN) is proposed, which comprises a modular reservoir architecture with each cluster distinctly specializing in one of the variables in the multivariate time series.

Binding-Specific Relearning Savings for Test-Time Continual Learning

This work tests whether learning a specific factual binding produces a later relearning advantage beyond familiarity with its entity, answer vocabulary, format, or query slot, and whether that advantage remains positive after adjustment for measured pre-relearning behavior.

Trust but Verify: Designing Region-Inhomogeneous Forward Dynamics for Discrete Diffusion

This work interprets absorbing diffusion as the infinite-contrast limit of a trust axis, analogous to the signal-to-noise gap between known and unknown regions in diffusion inpainting, and suggests that detectability and damage depend jointly on departure from the data conditional.

When is a large language model a good calibration agent? Physics-labeled prompting for budgeted engineering simulator calibration

This study investigates whether Large Language Models, conditioned on physical diagnostic descriptions of simulation errors, can propose informative parameter updates more efficiently than conventional derivative-free optimizers, and introduces a hybrid workflow that uses the LLM as a warm-start, passing accumulated ev...

Beyond accuracy in crop classification: calibration, selective prediction, and robustness

Introduction: Near-perfect crop-label accuracy can conceal uncertainty, perturbation sensitivity, and weak explanations. This study evaluates these reliability dimensions without treating benchmark classification as an agronomic recommendation. Materials and methods: Ten classifiers were evaluated using five matched st...

Data Quality, Feature Engineering, and Model Reliability in Large-Scale AI Multi-Agentic Systems

A conceptual framework linking data quality assurance, feature engineering, model training and reliability testing, and deployment to an agent population is proposed, closed by a cross-agent monitoring and feedback loop.
