Joint-embedding predictive architectures (JEPAs) learn compact latent world models without pixel reconstruction. Existing JEPA pipelines typically train visual representations and action-conditioned dynamics before adding a control policy or solver. We introduce LeWAM, an end-to-end JEPA for control with: (1) a joint training objective over next latent state prediction and action flow matching, and (2) an isotropic Gaussian constraint on the latent state, enabling a single model to support direct policy execution and efficient planning by evaluating sampled actions with its learned latent dynamics. Compared with prior JEPAs in visual planning, LeWAM improves success rate from 28.6% to 89.7% on contact-rich tasks and from 10.9% to 46.2% on long-horizon tasks, and plans 32.3 times faster. On behavior cloning tasks in simulation and physical robots, LeWAM is also competitive with established methods. Interpretability analyses show that LeWAM learns control-relevant representations and action distributions effectively guiding test-time planning and control.
GAOKAO-Bench is introduced, an intuitive benchmark that employs questions from the Chinese GAOKAO examination as test samples, including both subjective and objective questions that contribute a robust evaluation benchmark for future large language models and offers valuable insights into the advantages and limitations...

An algorithm is proposed which leverages disentangled semantic factors to generate adversarial perturbation by altering controlled semantic attributes to fool the learner towards various "adversarial" targets.

This work proposes a HALO that directly maximizes the utility of generations instead of maximizing the log-likelihood of preferences, and suggests that the best loss depends on the inductive biases most appropriate for a given setting, an oft-overlooked consideration.
This work investigates the possibilities of using LLMs in a resume screening setting via a document retrieval framework that simulates job candidate selection and finds that the MTEs are biased, significantly favoring White-associated names in 85% of cases and female-associated names in only 11.1% of cases.
This work shows that orders of magnitude enhancement in performance could be obtained by a combination of hardware improvements and tight quantum-HPC integration and introduces high-performance architectures for quantum-probabilistic computing with custom-designed accelerators to tackle today's industry-scale classical...
