TransfoRhythm: A Transformer Architecture Conductive to Blood Pressure Estimation via Solo PPG Signal Capturing

Recent statistics indicate that approximately 1.3 billion individuals worldwide suffer from hypertension, a leading cause of premature death globally. Blood Pressure (BP) serves as a critical health indicator for accurate and timely diagnosis and/or treatment of hypertension. Traditional BP measurement methods rely on...

Community detection in complex networks via node similarity, graph representation learning, and hierarchical clustering

Community detection is a significant challenge in analysing real graphs, including social, citation, biological, and many other networks. This article proposes three new, general, hierarchical frameworks to deal with this task. The introduced approach supports various linkage-based clustering algorithms, vertex proximi...

The Cost of Mismatch: Noise Amplification in Zeroth-Order Reinforcement Learning

Zeroth-order (ZO) optimization has emerged as a promising approach for memory-efficient large language model (LLM) post-training, yet its reliability in reinforcement learning with verifiable rewards (RLVR) remains largely unexplored. Motivated by the distinct data regimes of on-policy RL and fixed-data optimization, w...

Replay for LLM Continual Learning with Multi-Teacher On-Policy Distillation

Multi-teacher on-policy distillation (MOPD) distills several domain experts into one student and is used in the post-training of recent large language models. It trains on all domains at once, so every expert must be available at the same time. In practice, capabilities often arrive one after another, and the experts o...

Attribution-based diagnostics for single-cell foundation models

Single-cell RNA foundation models (scFMs) are increasingly used for in-silico biological discovery, yet predictive performance alone does not reveal whether their decisions rely on biologically meaningful signals or model-specific shortcuts. We systematically investigate post-hoc attribution of downstream predictions a...

Beyond Unit-Circle Eigenvalues: Invariant Bases for Stable State Space Dynamics

Diagonal state space models process long sequences at linear cost, yet the same transition is applied at every step of a rollout, so an unconstrained recurrence holds no quantity fixed and the state decays or grows without bound. Current designs constrain one quantity, and preserving one does not guarantee preservation...

NorthCUA Technical Report: Turbocharging Computer-Use Agents through Experience at Scale

Scaling computer-use agents from individual actions to complex software work requires experience that connects decisions to complete outcomes. We present NorthCUA, an integrated system for turbocharging computer-use agents through experience at scale. Its Experience Flywheel supplies diverse executable tasks to the Nor...

ReWY: Faster Backpropagation for Delta-Rule Attention - From 7 to 3 Matrix Multiplications

Delta-rule linear attention underlies language models such as Kimi Linear and Qwen3-Next. Chunkwise implementations expose matrix parallelism, but their backward passes compute unnecessary auxiliary adjoints. We present ReWY, an algebraic reformulation that reduces this work before optimizing accelerator execution. Dif...

Infinite Worlds from One Example: What Local Generators Must Share

Seeded noise lets games generate any region of an unbounded world on demand. We ask what such a generator needs when every small window must come from one example, the constraint behind Wave Function Collapse. The difficulty is that local constraints can require agreement over arbitrary distances: in a brick wall, each...

ISBC: Interpretable Sparse Binary Coding of Pretrained Text Embeddings

Pretrained text embeddings encode semantic structure in high-dimensional continuous spaces whose coordinates are difficult to interpret. We introduce Interpretable Sparse Binary Coding (ISBC), which learns a small set of binary dimensions from frozen embeddings without taxonomy labels or downstream outcomes. A trainabl...

Propose-Filter-Release: Scaling Noise to Typical Sensitivity via Private Filtering

Differential privacy requires that algorithms be stable to the change of any record in their input, even to an extreme outlier. Private algorithms thus commonly introduce noise scaled to the worst-case possible influence of any single record. This work studies how to build differentially private algorithms that can eff...

TriTile: Three-Tier Attention for Video Diffusion Transformers

Attention over tens of thousands of visual tokens dominates the inference of video diffusion transformers (DiTs). Existing methods reduce this cost through sparsity, low precision, or both, but use a single precision for all kept tiles. We observe that the output error introduced by approximation varies widely across t...
