Before AI can be trusted to discover new science, it should be able to reproduce what science already knows. Reproduction provides a rigorous checkpoint for an AI scientist: the target claim is…
Using machine learning, we identify a second transition in polymer chain stretching driven by planar elongational flow, beyond the well-known coil-stretch transition. We achieve this by developing a…
Classical theory predicts that irrational traders lose money to rational traders and are eventually driven out of the market. Yet noise trading, herding, and heuristic trading persist even in highly…
Experience can help embodied agents turn high-level plans into grounded actions, but transferring it across tasks remains challenging: previously effective strategies may be inapplicable to the…
In a duopoly with captive and contested consumers, I characterize every pair of consumer and producer surplus that can arise under some market composition and some public segmentation, and construct…
Nonlinear structural system identification remains challenging when governing physics is only partially known and measurements are sparse. Deep Bayesian filtering addresses these challenges by…
Drone-based 3D reconstruction and inspection require viewpoints that satisfy image-quality constraints while observing each surface region multiple times, which overlap-based planning heuristics do…
What is the round complexity of Hessian-similar optimization when each round can contact at most $s$ of $m$ clients? Prior rates permit a free master or full participation and do not characterize…
Complex camera motion is central to visual storytelling, yet translating cinematographic intent into controllable, executable camera trajectories remains challenging. We introduce FilmFlow, an…
How effectively can vision-language-action (VLA) models learn diverse language-conditioned behaviors as training data scales? Investigating this question requires large and varied robot datasets,…
This work develops a physics-informed multimodal deep learning framework for 10- to 110-minute-ahead probabilistic photovoltaic power forecasting. The forecasting model is built on a four-branch…
Robotic navigation typically assumes a collision-free route to the goal exists; in cluttered environments with movable obstacles, however, reaching the goal may require physical interaction.…
While mining parallel sentences from web pages has proven effective for low-resource machine translation, the majority of the world's languages have little to no web presence. What they do have,…
Increasingly, users express their needs as natural-language intents rather than structured requests. These intents may be incomplete, high-level, or internally conflicting.
Learning mechanism behaviour requires a representation of how connected parts jointly constrain motion. We study whether exposing reusable constraint subassemblies improves prediction from limited…
Generating interactive 3D assets from a single image requires realistic appearance, fidelity to the depicted object, and plausible physical behavior. Yet detailed geometry alone does not determine…
Large language models (LLMs) draw on parametric knowledge and retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) to solve knowledge-intensive tasks. Yet problem solving in unfamiliar domains calls for tightly…
We propose MorphSIG, a training-free framework that reformulates subject-driven image generation (SIG) as pseudo-video feature transport. MorphSIG contains two core modules: Progressive Decoupled…
Multi-image composition (MICo) is a critical yet challenging capability for large-scale image editing models, where consistency degrades rapidly as the number of reference images increases. While…
Electric-field-based actuators and machines lead the design space at the nanoscale and in biological systems, while having the potential to be used in favorable macroscale applications which…
Large language models (LLMs) achieve high inference efficiency using optimized GPU kernels generated by just-in-time (JIT) compilation frameworks such as Triton. Triton compiles GPU kernels through…
Vision-language-action (VLA) policies need to recognize gaps in their training knowledge to request useful demonstrations or assistance in new situations, especially when failures are costly.…
Retrieval-augmented generation can expose unwanted concepts through retrieved evidence even when the generator is moderated. We study query-side concept suppression with a fixed encoder and document…
