Molecular optimization often starts from a pretrained generative model that captures a broad prior over valid molecular structures. At test time, however, the goal is not to sample from this prior, but to use a limited oracle budget to shift generation toward task-specific high-reward molecules. We study this adaptatio...

MIRAGE (Muslim-Identity Reasoning and Agentic Generation Evaluation), a benchmark of 1,200 prompts spanning three deployment-realistic conditions, finds that chain-of-thought reasoning rather than suppresses Muslim-violence associations, suppressing direct-completion bias while leaving agentic asymmetry largely intact.

This paper formulates multi-stage generative AI value allocation as a new research problem and proposes AME (Attribution-Mapping-Execution) framework, a unified framework that integrates data contribution valuation, data rights mapping, and trustworthy execution into a single workflow.

Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) language models reduce per-token computation through sparse expert activation, yet deployment still requires storing the full expert pool, making one-shot expert pruning a practical approach for reducing memory usage. Although effective, existing criteria are largely heuristic, and no single cr...

Knowledge Graph Completion (KGC) aims at predicting missing triplets from incomplete knowledge graphs, which is crucial for downstream applications. Recently, Graph Neural Network (GNN)-based methods have achieved remarkable success by performing message passing over a local subgraph centered on the query entity. In th...

While machine learning (ML) architectures have evolved rapidly to account for complex data, loss functions like cross-entropy remain mostly structure-agnostic in many real-world applications. However, the "class-symmetric" nature of these standard losses fundamentally limits the ability of ML models to exploit structur...

Agentic large language models are increasingly used to solve real-world tasks by reasoning over goals, invoking tools, and interacting with external environments. Reinforcement learning provides a natural framework for improving these behaviors, and recent agent RL methods have achieved strong results across domains. H...
Deep Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) are essential for capturing complex dependencies in graph-structured data. However, scaling GNNs to depth remains challenging, as stacking layers leads to representation collapse and diminishing sensitivity due to repeated aggregation. While Neural Sheaf Diffusion (NSD) provides strong...
Reinforcement Learning with Verifiable Rewards (RLVR) improves language-model reasoning using final-answer correctness, but lacks supervision for intermediate steps. Rubric-based methods such as Rubrics as Rewards (RaR) provide finer-grained criteria, yet collapse rubric scores into a response-level scalar. This loses...

Unbalanced optimal transport (UOT) provides a principled framework for modeling single-cell transitions and birth-death dynamics, but its high computational cost limits scalability to large-scale datasets. Although single-cell data often contain hierarchical annotations and known transition priors, existing UOT approxi...
Smartphone scams are increasingly prevalent and typically manifest as multi-stage, cross-application processes with gradually emerging intent. Effective intervention thus requires anticipating scams before the intent becomes explicit. This is inherently challenging, as decisions must rely on partial trajectories with t...

The first systematic study of when target context helps molecular property prediction is presented, evaluating context conditioning across 10 diverse protein families, 4 fusion architectures, data regimes, and both temporal and random evaluation splits, providing the first rigorous evidence that context-conditional mol...
