A Closer Look at Agentic BBO: Benchmarking LLM Agents for Black-Box Optimization

Black-box optimization (BBO) arises in many scientific and engineering problems where objective evaluations are expensive and limited. Recent large language model (LLM) agents offer a new way to approach BBO by combining task semantics, computation, optimization tools, and feedback-driven decision making, showing great...

AI-Based On-Board Maritime Object Detection for Earth Observation Payload Data Reduction on Versal Embedded Hardware

Very-high-resolution Earth-observation satellites acquire more data than they can store and downlink, while in maritime surveillance the vessels cover a tiny fraction of each scene. We study onboard vessel detection as a way to select what is downlinked, which reduces the data according to its content rather than codin...

Unifying Policy Learning and State Prediction through Spatial Language Modeling

Learning how actions change scene geometry can provide complementary supervision for goal-directed manipulation. We introduce Spatial Language Modeling, which represents scene contours, goals, action targets, and future states with a shared vocabulary of discrete coordinates and semantic tokens. A task-specific grammar...

Scalable Hierarchical Graph Generation via Soft Community Structure

Generating large attributed graphs requires reproducing the topology, generating attributes jointly with the structure, and remaining scalable. Many real-world graphs exist as a single large graph, so a generative model has to generalize from the one graph it is fit on, without independent samples. We present Schema, w...

LVS: Local View Synthesis from Relative Camera Pose by Reusing Previous Views

Interactive scene exploration requires frequent view updates, although small camera motions preserve much of the visible content. Conventional 3D Gaussian Splatting nevertheless renders each target view, leaving this image overlap unexploited. Reusing rendered images offers an alternative. Geometric warping alone canno...

Using Weisfeiler-Leman Features for Algorithm Selection in Constraint Optimisation

Algorithm Selection is essential for efficient Constraint Programming. Over the years, many algorithm selectors based on machine learning methods have been successfully applied, yet traditional feature extraction methods often rely on manually decided instance-level statistics that fail to capture the underlying proble...

A Geometric Approach to Soft Actor-Critic with Zonotopes for Locomotion Learning

Off-policy actor--critic methods control overestimation bias by taking the minimum of two critics. This uses the same aggregation rule everywhere, regardless of how the critics disagree. We propose \textbf{GeZo-SAC}, which uses auxiliary geometric representations to adapt critic pessimism to the state and action. Along...

VINCIE-NExT: Unlocking Video Editing from Images via In-Context Modeling

Building a capable video editor remains significantly harder than a video generator: editing requires (source, instruction, edited) triplets that are prohibitively expensive to annotate and difficult to synthesize at scale, whereas image editing has already reached maturity with millions of such pairs readily available...

All Verdicts are Not Equal: Rethinking LLM Judge Reliability

LLM-as-a-Judge is the standard paradigm for NLP evaluation, yet its systemic reliability remains poorly understood despite being widely treated as a deterministic ground truth. We present a comprehensive reliability audit, stresstesting six frontier models across four benchmarks, five prompt formats, two presentation o...

MAST: Motif-Augmented Diffusion with Search Tree for Spectroscopic Molecular Structure Elucidation

Elucidating molecular structures from spectra is a foundational problem in chemical and materials characterization, yet remains challenging due to spectral ambiguity and the vast molecular space. Although recent diffusion-based generators show strong promise for spectra-conditioned elucidation, existing methods struggl...

MPGE: A Multi-Perspective Graph Explainer for Molecular Classification Explanation

Graph neural networks (GNNs) predict molecular properties from chemical graph data, but predictive accuracy does not explain how graph information supports an individual decision. A compact prediction-preserving rationale does not necessarily reveal which changes reverse the decision or which modifications the model to...

Traceable World State: A Provenance-Aware State Representation and Deterministic Replay Framework for Robotic Systems

Robotic systems operating over extended tasks must maintain a world state assembled from observations arriving at different times, with varying confidence and potential revisions. Conventional representations emphasize latest estimates, hindering fact provenance, decision reproduction, or execution auditing. We present...
