An LLM agent can retrieve a memory correctly yet use it incorrectly after its validity state changes. We study governance-state corruption: faults that alter which retained records enter…
Autonomous robotic surgery has drawn increased attention in recent years due to its potential to relieve surgeons of time-consuming, mentally straining, and tedious tasks, particularly during…
Safety probes trained on a model's activations are a standard tool for monitoring language models in real time. Each time a new model is released or a new harm area needs to be monitored, the probe…
Existing datasets on cultural knowledge have been typically created by human annotators familiar with each culture. However, the process requires considerable human effort, presenting a significant…
Large language models increasingly act as controllers in structured decision pipelines, yet their decisions are still executed by autoregressive text decoding. Hierarchical RAG is one such setting:…
Social world models predict how interactions develop after an action, helping agents negotiate, cooperate and mediate. In these situations, one action can lead to several plausible futures, hence…
Contrastive Language-Image Pre-training (CLIP) has shown superior performance in the image-level open-vocabulary classification task, benefiting from its powerful alignment of visual features and…
Scaling large language models has substantially improved linguistic fluency, yet reliable autonomous agents require more than fluent generation. In multi-turn inference, current agentic systems often…
Reliable robotic mapping in dynamic real-world environments is essential for embodied intelligence and long-term autonomy. However, existing methods often involve a trade-off: lightweight online…
Architecture attribute predictors reduce the cost of neural architecture search by estimating accuracy or latency from a small set of evaluated candidates. The key difficulty is that neural…
We study stationary discrete-time mean-field games with finite state and action spaces under the average-reward criterion, with an entropy-regularized objective and population-dependent dynamics and…
A predictor is multicalibrated with respect to a class of subpopulations (formally, of functions on the inputs, called auditors) if, for every subpopulation in the class and every value the predictor…
The Mallows model is a well-established construct in preference modeling, describing random rankings through their Kendall-Tau distance from a reference permutation. Its compact parameterization and…
We study multiwinner voting with $n$ voters and $m$ candidates, where the goal is to select a committee of size $k$. Voters have unit-sum cardinal utilities but report only coarse information induced…
We study concurrent stochastic games in which a team of agents plays against an adversarial environment. If the agents could access a shared source of randomness, then these games reduce to…
Dasgupta, Stevens and Navlakha (2017) showed that the Drosophila olfactory circuit, modelled as a random sparse projection followed by winner-take-all, is a locality-sensitive hash that beats…
We study an online trading problem where a trader, given a sequence of i.i.d. prices drawn from a known distribution $F$ on $[0,1]$, must make irrevocable buy, sell, or hold decisions subject to…
We study last-iterate convergence in unknown two-player zero-sum discounted Markov games with bandit feedback. The players learn independently along a single trajectory without observing each other's…
Evaluating the causal effect of new features is a central goal for online platforms. While recent literature addresses limited testing traffic via centralized portfolio optimization, this perspective…
How search strategies evolve in finite, depletable landscapes remains a question in foraging theory. We study this problem with an evolutionary simulation in which agents forage on a two-dimensional…
Neuromorphic spiking neural networks (SNNs) offer a promising alternative to conventional deep neural networks for tasks with computational resource or data constraints. However, their practical…
Every day, people continuously infer situational context and adjust the way they understand and remember the world. Context, signaled by the prefrontal cortex, is known to modulate working memory and…
Recent advances in agentic heuristic design use AI agents and execution feedback to automate algorithm discovery for challenging optimization problems. In many practical settings, high-quality…
Continual Graph Learning (CGL) aims to incrementally learn from graph-structured data while preserving knowledge acquired from previous tasks. A major challenge in this setting is catastrophic…
