An AI developer often has several candidate versions of a system and can deploy a mixture of them, sending each request to a randomly chosen version, sending each request to a randomly chosen version, as in A/B testing, so the number of rejecting agents is minimized.
Quantum machine learning (QML) is increasingly explored for medical classification, yet its behaviour under subgroup-aware fairness criteria remains understudied. We present an empirical fairness audit of classical and quantum classifiers for medical imaging, assuming QML is not inherently fair. Two scenarios are evalu...

Recent work has hypothesised that large language models may represent some concepts as multi-dimensional manifolds instead of single directions. Using these manifolds to interpret or steer representations often assumes that moving along them corresponds to a continuous change in the represented concept. In this work, w...

This work studies context-aware selective transfer learning for multi-well groundwater anomaly forecasting in the Netherlands. Source-domain pretraining can raise average accuracy but is not uniformly reliable: it degrades performance on a substantial fraction of heterogeneous wells. Context-Aware Selective Learning (C...

A key challenge of RAG systems is retrieving information from enterprise documents created by multiple teams over time, where it is not possible to enrich the information using the latest information and metadata available outside the scope of organizational documentation responsibility. We investigated whether using a...
In machine learning, symbolic reasoning approaches often rely on static architectures that hinder integration into deep neural networks and gradient-based optimization. To address this, we introduce the Native Predicate Neuron, a differentiable logic-reasoning neural module that enriches standard architectures with sym...

Users engage with large language models on tasks that are purely objective ("When was Netflix founded?"), purely subjective ("What should I name my child?") or anywhere in-between. We have rich tools for evaluating model accuracy with respect to objective criteria. However, when it comes to subjective aspects of a task...

Deployed classifiers often act on a prediction only when its confidence clears a threshold and pass the rest to a person. We ask whether one threshold serves all languages equally on typed decision interfaces, APIs that return a probability for each option of a fixed multiple-choice question. In a confirmatory study wi...

Despite their strong performance, large language models remain highly sensitive to prompt formulation. This issue is typically addressed at inference-time through manual prompt optimization, which introduces overhead and lacks scalability. Conversely, we focus on train-time approaches that build prompt robustness into...
Large reasoning models have recently demonstrated remarkable capabilities in solving complex tasks, where supervised fine-tuning (SFT) on long chain-of-thought data serves as a crucial foundation for eliciting and enhancing their reasoning abilities. Despite rapid progress in both improving and analyzing reasoning-orie...

Closing the gap between frontier and smaller language models is usually approached by distillation: fine-tuning the small model (student) on a frontier model's (teacher) outputs, which binds transfer to training compute and leaves the transferred knowledge largely opaque. We propose Artifact Distillation: a teacher sol...
Forecasting in the real world requires integrating structured time-series data with unstructured textual information, but existing methods are architecturally limited by fixed input/output horizons and are unable to model or quantify uncertainty. We address this challenge by introducing LLM-integrated Bayesian State sp...
