Independence-System Realisations in Single-Source Unsplittable Flow

Additive-congestion constraints in single-source unsplittable flow can enforce stable-set structure. This note isolates and generalises that mechanism. We introduce a path-closed notion of realising an independence system by the zero-cost choices of primary terminals in a directed acyclic flow instance. The definition...

BLADE: ReliaBle Dynamic Hardware-Aware SNN-ANN Boundary SeLection for Event-BAseD Object DEtection

Hybrid Spiking Neural Network (SNN)-Artificial Neural Network (ANN) architectures combine the energy efficiency of SNNs with the superior detection accuracy of ANNs for event-based object detection. Existing hybrid SNN--ANN networks, however, employ static inference and select the SNN-ANN boundary primarily according t...

Pay Only for Disagreement: Certified No-Regression Verdicts for Model Updates with Matching Label-Complexity Bounds

Every production model is updated, by retraining, fine-tuning, quantization, or a silent vendor swap, and each update risks being worse than what it replaced. We formalize update promotion as certified paired risk-difference auditing. Our starting point is a support identity: the risk difference between two models live...

WARD: Runtime Workload-Adaptive Vision TRansformer Framework for Dependable Edge AI

Edge-deployed AI operate under dynamically changing power budgets, reliability requirements, and input distributions, requiring continuous adaptation. Such conditions arise in long-running edge AI applications, including autonomous systems, industrial monitoring, and satellite onboard intelligence. Existing fault-toler...

REQAP: Resilient Weight Packing and Quantization for Edge DNN Acceleration

Efficient deployment of Deep Neural Networks (DNNs) on edge accelerators requires aggressive model compression while maintaining reliability in fault-prone hardware environments. This paper presents a reliability-aware quantized weight packing methodology for systolic-array-based DNN accelerators. A sensitivity-driven...

The Death of Schema Linking? Text-to-SQL in the Age of Well-Reasoned Language Models

Schema linking is a crucial step in Text-to-SQL pipelines. Its goal is to retrieve the relevant tables and columns of a target database for a user's query while disregarding irrelevant ones. However, imperfect schema linking can often exclude required columns needed for accurate query generation. In this work, we revis...

Cognitive Extensions for Dual-Process Language Agents: Memory and Self-Reflection in Interactive Environments

Language agents remain brittle in interactive environments, where success requires long-horizon state tracking, valid action execution, and recovery from failed steps. We extend SwiftSage, a dual-process agent that combines a fast action proposer with a slower planner, using two modular cognitive extensions: an Adaptiv...

Flag Game: A Toy Model for Mechanistic Swarm Interpretability

Emergent coordinated behaviors of AI agents are starting to present critical safety risks. A key phenomenon driving these behaviors is the rapid formation and spread of beliefs about the world, and mechanistic understanding is crucial for collective alignment. To this end, we introduce the Flag Game, a toy model for st...

MUSE: Benchmarking Large Vision-Language Models on Multi-Modal Understanding in Situated Education

Large vision-language models have achieved remarkable progress in multi-modal understanding, yet their capabilities in educational settings remain insufficiently evaluated. In AI-assisted language learning, models must interpret artistic imagery, understand its semantic, affective, and cultural content, and reason abou...

Compiled Agency: Frontier General-Purpose Coding Agents Build Winning Game Players from Bare Interaction - from Flappy Bird to StarCraft II and Civilization

LLM agents have repeatedly struggled to convert knowledge of a game into competent play, even when researchers build the agent around the model - supplying perception, memory, skill libraries, planners, or executable-policy scaffolds. Rapid progress in coding agents raises two sharper questions: can frontier models now...

Lost in Perception: Isolating Perceptual and Reasoning Failures in Multimodal Physics and Geometry Reasoning

Multimodal LLMs report strong performance on scientific reasoning benchmarks, yet most treat perception and reasoning as a single measurable process. We introduce a five-task diagnostic experiment across physics and geometry benchmarks that isolates failures to perception, reasoning, or both. Incorrect diagram interpre...

Function Lives Where Variance Doesn't: Task-Weighted Charts of a Language Model's Computation

How many dimensions does a language model's computation actually use? The question is ill-posed until one names a functional. Task-weighted charts make it well-posed: low-dimensional coordinate systems fit against a chosen functional of the representation, under the functional's own metric, turning distillation into pl...
