Learning Representations through Token Prediction: Geometry, Approximation, and Downstream Guarantees

A statistical framework connecting token prediction with representation geometry, encoder approximation, and downstream performance is developed, introducing a self-consistency principle showing that repeated applications of a shared representation block can progressively refine the contextual representation without introducing additional block parameters.

Mitigating Over-Optimization in PRM-Guided Search in Mathematical Reasoning by Optimizing the Guide

This work theoretically shows that directly leveraging PRM score is vulnerable to verifier noise through an extreme-value effect: non-viable prefixes become more likely to receive spuriously high scores as reasoning depth increase, leading to a training-free robust process supervision method that preserves promising alternatives when step-level scores are noisy.

A Deep Latent Variable Framework for Jointly Modeling Missingness, Measurement Error, and Heterogeneity

A unified probabilistic framework that jointly addresses missing data, measurement error, and population heterogeneity utilizing deep latent variable representation is proposed that integrates a novel hierarchical tree-routed variational autoencoder with pattern-aware latent representations and calibration-based denoising.

An Open-Source, Event-Driven Pipeline for Cryptocurrency Market Data: Ingestion, Forecasting, and On-Chain Fraud Detection

A fully open-source pipeline that reproduces the behavior of a cloud-native, event-driven system -- file arrival triggering a message, a message triggering compute -- entirely on commodity hardware, using Apache Kafka and a filesystem-watching poller in place of managed cloud triggers is described.

EDGE: Engine for Deterministic Graph Evaluation through Conversation Simulation from Graph Structured DSL Configuration

This paper introduces a formal evaluation methodology that is grounded in AgentGraph, a planner powered by a domain specific language that represents agent reasoning through a dynamically adjustable directed graph, and defines novel metrics that measure response and trajectory determinism, structural adherence and semantic consistency across both exact replays and their linguistic variants.

Data-Driven Design Optimization of Streaming-Potential-Mediated Electrokinetic Transport of Viscoelastic Fluids in Microchannels

Streaming-potential-mediated transport of viscoelastic fluids has attracted research attention owing to its applications in electrokinetic energy conversion and microfluidic transport. Existing analytical and semi-analytical models in published literature provide valuable physical insights, but require repeated numerical evaluations for exploring large design spaces and identifying the optimal operating conditions. In this work, a surrogate-assisted framework is developed for rapid design optimization of pressure-driven electrokinetic transport of simplified Phan-Thien-Tanner fluids in a slit microchannel. A high-fidelity numerical database is generated over a broad range of governing dimensionless parameters, which includes the zeta potential, the Debye parameter, the Dukhin number, and the viscoelastic parameter. A Machine Learning surrogate model is subsequently trained to accurately approximate the nonlinear relationship between the governing parameters and the streaming potential, while the volumetric flow rate and hydroelectric energy conversion efficiency were calculated from closed form equation by using the streaming potential predicted by the surrogate. This is coupled with a multi-objective optimization strategy to identify operating conditions that simultaneously maximize energy conversion efficiency and volumetric flow rate. The proposed methodology can significantly accelerate parametric exploration compared with repeated numerical simulations across different parameters and provides practical design guidelines for electrokinetic microfluidic devices. The study demonstrates the potential of combining computational fluid mechanics with data-driven surrogate modeling for efficient engineering design and optimization.

When Safety Speaks a Language: A Mechanistic Analysis of Safety-Language Identity Entanglement in LLMs

This work presents a systematic mechanistic analysis of multilingual safety using sparse autoencoder features, sparse interpretable directions in the residual stream associated with harmful and harmless model behavior across three instruction-tuned LLMs, eight languages, and all model layers to qualify the language-universality of safety alignment as architecture-dependent and offer a mechanistic account of multilingual safety interventions.
