Accelerating Safe Reinforcement Learning with Massive Parallelism

We investigate the problem of scaling safe reinforcement learning (safe RL) to massively parallel training regimes, where a large number of environments are exe- cuted with short rollout horizons. Although this setting improves data throughput and wall-clock efficiency, it creates a mismatch with constrained Markov dec...

DART: Domain-Agnostic Residual Transfer for Generalist Anomaly Detection

Generalist Anomaly Detection (GAD) aims to detect anomalies in unseen domains using only a few reference samples. Recent normal-abnormal guided methods improve this setting by exploiting abnormal references, but their residuals often mix transferable anomaly cues with domain-specific appearance factors such as texture,...

Scaling Neural Motor Decoding via Decoupled Behavioral Pretraining

Recent neural decoding approaches achieve strong performance by training on large collections of paired neural-behavioral recordings, but such datasets are expensive, invasive, and difficult to scale. In contrast, behavioral data is abundant and easy to collect, raising the question of whether neural decoding can benef...

Interpretable Multimodal MRI-Clinical Fusion for Functional Outcome Prediction After Acute Ischemic Stroke

This study evaluates the added prognostic value of day-1 multimodal MRI for predicting three-month functional outcome after acute ischemic stroke (AIS). Sixty-six AIS patients with ADC, DWI, FLAIR, and clinical data were analyzed. Three-dimensional pretrained ResNet embeddings were extracted from each MRI modality, red...

Gradient Boosting for Efficient Rank Discovery in Tensor Network Kernel Machines

Tensor network kernel machines (TNKMs) combine nonlinear features with low-rank tensor representations to model complex relationships efficiently. However, selecting an appropriate tensor rank remains challenging, as conventional rank-search methods require training multiple candidate models, increasing computational c...

Value or Attention: Investigating Layer-wise Relevance Propagation for Graph Attention Networks

Graph Attention Networks (GATs) are increasingly used in domains where scientists need to read a model's reasoning, from medicine to materials science, yet the routing they learn remains opaque to most explainers. Layer-wise Relevance Propagation (LRP) follows the model's computation, but in an attention layer the rele...

Can an LLM Actually Reason and Program about Neural Network's Weights or is it just memorization on steroids? Exploring "Weight-Space Programming"

Large language models (LLMs) have recently been reported to read and write the raw weights of neural networks directly, a capability termed weight-space programming. We ask whether the reading side of this capability reflects reasoning about weight flows or a combination of local arithmetic at the network's edges and m...

AttnSR: Attention Step Reward for Long-Horizon Agentic RL

Long-horizon LLM agents make multi-step decisions, yet outcome-reward-only reinforcement learning provides little direct supervision for individual steps. We introduce AttnSR, a step-level reward augmentation method that derives reward allocations from policy attention extracted during training replay, without a separa...

Structure from Collision via Hypothesis-Space Reasoning

Knowledge of the hidden interior structure of an object, including the presence and location of cavities, is essential for predictive simulation, robotic manipulation, and nondestructive inspection. However, such cavities leave no direct signature on the static visible surface, making collision-induced deformation one...

DISCERN: Distributional Synthetic Replay for Retain-Free Incremental Machine Unlearning

Machine unlearning aims to remove the influence of specific training data from a trained model without retraining from scratch. In real deployments, however, deletion requests arrive over time, calling for incremental class unlearning (ICU): classes are removed sequentially, previously forgotten knowledge must remain f...

When, Where, How: Active In-Context Learning for Tabular Foundation Models

Tabular Foundation Models (TFMs) adapt to a new task only through the labeled rows in their context. However, labels are expensive to acquire in real-world scenarios due to the need for highly specific domain knowledge to ensure high-quality data. Active in-context learning transfers classical acquisition rules to this...

Computation, not weight access: large language models as auditors of clinical prediction networks

Frontier large language models (LLMs) have been reported to read, edit and write the weights of small neural networks, raising the prospect of auditing clinical prediction models from their files alone. Public demonstrations, however, mixed reading raw weights with running code. We separated these conditions in interna...
