TL;DR

UCCT is framed as a Concept & Feasibility contribution offering a falsifiable pre­ dictive framework for when in-context control tips, with broader validation across multitask geom­ etry, RAG and adaptation interventions, and mechanistic localization left to follow-up studies.

Attention-Path Fragility as an Uncertainty Signal in Large Language Models

It is proposed that a model's uncertainty about a token is reflected not only in the breadth of its output distribution but also in whether a confident prediction is \emph{fragile} under perturbation of its attention pathways, a training-free estimator that masks attention heads and measures the BALD mutual information...

The JEPA Paradox in Language: The Geometry of Linguistic Alternatives

Text-compatible JEPA objectives must preserve multiple plausible completions rather than compress them into a single latent point, showing that text-compatible JEPA objectives must preserve multiple plausible completions rather than compress them into a single latent point.

Semantic Bandits: In-Context Exploration-Exploitation is Biased by Semantic Priors

It is argued that the use of language to define the environment and rewards introduces unavoidable biases derived from the fact that the model is trained on word co-occurence, with implications for the reliability and robustness of LLM agents in real-world decision-making settings.

Latent Fact-Checking: Detecting Misinformation through Activation Engineering

Findings provide evidence that truthfulness is a structured, linearly separable concept in the latent space of pretrained language models, and point toward interpretability-driven misinformation detection as a practical complement to retrieval-based pipelines.

When Prompts Ignore Structure: Graph-Based Attribute Reasoning for Calibrated VLMs

This work proposes ARGTCA, which represents (class, attribute) pairs as nodes in a Symbolic Attribute Graph and trains a Graph Attention Network (GAT) using contrastive objectives to produce structurally informed embeddings that capture inter-attribute dependencies.

Attention Degradation, Function Token Anchoring, and the Limits of Attention-Based Intervention in Large Language Models

It is concluded that mean attention degradation is largely descriptive rather than prescriptive: function tokens contribute through what their hidden states compute, not through the attention they receive -- with implications for interpretability methodology and attention-score-based inference optimisations such as KV-...
