MIRROR: From Imitation to Internalization in LLM Personalization

The demand for personalized LLMs is shifting from style imitation toward content quality. We investigate whether self-distillation can bridge this gap in existing fine-tuning paradigm. To address this limitation, we introduce MIRROR(Meta- personalization by Internalizing Reference-Revealed On-policy Reflections), a nov...

Decoupling Logic from Persona: Structural Immunity of Edge LLM Agents to Context Pollution

Small language-model agents on edge devices must hold a persona and reason correctly at once, inside one context window that fills with conversational history and persona instructions. We study what happens to the logical part of such an agent when that history is long, misleading and persona-heavy (persona-logic inter...

Artificial intelligence pathways from weather to climate

Deep learning has made rapid advances in weather forecasting: autoregressive models trained on atmospheric reanalyses now rival dynamical models across nowcasting, medium-range, and subseasonal-to-seasonal lead times, producing well-calibrated ensemble forecasts at reduced cost. We review these advances and consider th...

Beyond Policy Support: Interaction Constrained Offline Reinforcement Learning for Autonomous Driving

Offline reinforcement learning enables reward-driven policy improvement from fixed datasets without requiring online exploration, making it particularly attractive in safety-critical domains. A central challenge, however, is distribution shift: policy optimization may favor actions that are weakly supported by the offl...

PARC-Loc: Text-to-Point-Cloud Localization with Partial Assignment and Relational Consistency

Text-to-point-cloud localization estimates a position in a city-scale 3D map from descriptions of surrounding objects. Existing coarse-to-fine methods retrieve submaps using aggregate learned compatibility and then localize within a selected submap. However, repetitive or similar urban objects can inflate the embedding...

Unrolled Flow Models for Reasoning

Flow matching enables language generation in few steps, but whether additional integration steps improve reasoning remains unclear. We prove that a flow parameterized by a two-layer Transformer can solve graph reachability, with the required number of integration steps increasing with the target's distance from the roo...

Healthy skepticism in AI: a data visualization research agenda

Research in data visualization of artificial intelligence (AI) models has historically focused on enhancing trust through visual explanations of AI. The trustworthiness line of work was built at least partially on an assumption that humans were critical users unlikely to adopt AI technology. It is increasingly clear th...

What Makes Synthetic Hard Negatives Work in Vision-Language Pretraining?

Synthetic hard negatives generated in the representation space have proven effective for unimodal self-supervised learning, but transferring this idea to vision-language pretraining is not straightforward. We analyze six representation-space synthesis strategies and identify two failure modes in their transfer to visio...

Few-Shot Learning for Personalised Automated Pain Assessment

Pain perception varies substantially across individuals, making it difficult for population-based classifiers to generalise across all subjects in a dataset. One way to account for subject variability is to train personalised classifiers. In this work, we evaluate Few-Shot Learning, a sub-area of Meta-Learning, as an a...

From Pareto to Preference: Personalized Test-Time Scaling via Amortized Agentic Policy Discovery

Test-time scaling (TTS) improves the reasoning capabilities of large language models by allocating additional inference computation. Existing approaches to improving TTS efficiency largely optimize accuracy against one resource dimension at a time, advancing either the accuracy--cost or accuracy--latency Pareto frontie...

CERO: Where and When to Allocate Rollouts for RL Post-Training

Adaptive rollout methods for group-relative reinforcement learning typically allocate a fixed per-update budget across prompts. We instead study how to coordinate a finite rollout budget over the entire training horizon. We formulate this problem using a concave surrogate utility of cumulative prompt exposure and intro...

Real-world application of deep learning in large-scale seismic interference attenuation: A case study in the Camie field of Angola

In marine seismic acquisition, seismic interference (SI) occurs when energy from nearby external seismic source(s) is captured. It typically appears as coherent noise with linear or non-linear movement and varying amplitudes across different sail lines. SI is commonly observed and poses a challenge for seismic data pro...

Who we become when we talk to machines

Professor Sherry Turkle’s new book, “Artificial Intimacy,” offers a withering critique of chatbots and the antisocial dynamics she believes they encourage.
