Modular Structure Parameter Generation Algorithm for Rapid Assembly and Disassembly in Temporary Environments

In view of the urgent demand for rapid assembly and disassembly of temporary modular structures, this paper proposes a parametric generation algorithm that places disassembly feasibility as a core constraint of scheme generation, prior to the verification stage at the end of design. A linkage representation system for...

Learning the Right Abstraction: Neural Reduced Dynamics for Complex Robot Control

A neural reduced dynamics framework is developed that separates the state the model propagates from what can be supplied as an input or recovered analytically, trains policies entirely inside the frozen learned model, and validates them back in the high-fidelity simulator.

Bayesian-Guided Cooperative RL Beamforming for Wireless Adversarial User Detection

It is demonstrated that the reinforcement learning-based approaches, namely Q-learning and SARSA (State-Action-Reward-State-Action), consistently outperform random selection in terms of total channel capacity, attacker detection accuracy, and performance stability.

Ask to Be Sure: Informative Interactions for Confident Multi-Turn LLM Recommendation

This work proposes a new approach that quantifies the effectiveness of each interaction by the reduction in the assistant's uncertainty, measured via entropy over recommendations, to fine-tune the LLM, enabling strategic interaction generation.

COGTRL: Training LLMs for Scientific Discovery Assistance using Cognitive Traces via Reinforcement Learning

COGTRL is proposed, a trajectory-level reinforcement learning framework that trains LLMs to emulate cognitively grounded reasoning by jointly optimizing cognitive traces and the scientific steps produced in an interleaved manner.

Deep Reinforcement Learning for Dynamic Origin-Destination Matrix Estimation in Microscopic Traffic Simulations Considering Credit Assignment

By reframing DODE as a sequential decision-making problem, this approach addresses the credit assignment challenge through a learned policy and provides a novel framework for calibration of microscopic traffic simulations.

Normalized Low-Rank Adaptation

Normalized Low-Rank Adaptation (NoRA) is introduced, a simple yet effective method that normalizes the down-projection matrices during training, improving standard LoRA without requiring repeated normalization throughout training.

One Policy Is Enough: Single-Agent Reinforcement Learning Outperforms Tree Search for Chemistry Tool Learning

This model interleaves reasoning, tool calls, and returns in one left-to-right generation, trained by a supervised warm-up and then outcome-level reinforcement learning against a programmatic reward read directly off the gold call chain, which leaves no learned critic and no judge in the training loop.

Uncertainty-Driven Replay Memory for Reinforcement Learning

Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed uncertainty-aware replay buffer enables an RL agent to obtain higher rewards during training compared to other existing uncertainty-aware RL frameworks.

Strategic Participation on Tokenized Platforms: Balancing Investment and Labor Intensities

Participants on tokenized platforms (i.e., platforms with blockchain implementation) can simultaneously take multiple roles, such as user, investor, and laborer, and draw income from the last two roles. Unlike traditional markets that typically prioritize one means of profitable participation, participants on such plat...

Q&A: How AI came to model the “messy” human mind

Assistant Professor Benjamin Lindquist studies how engineers deliberately injected randomness into early AI, giving rise to deep-learning models that sometimes hallucinate.
