Quantitative imaging methods, such as magnetic resonance fingerprinting (MRF), aim to extract interpretable pathology biomarkers by estimating biophysical tissue parameters from signal evolutions. However, the pattern-matching algorithms or neural networks used in such inverse problems often lack principled uncertainty...

Large language model reasoning is often treated as a monolithic capability, relying on binary preference supervision that fails to capture partial progress or fine-grained reasoning quality. We introduce continuous utility direct preference optimization (CU-DPO), a framework that aligns models to a portfolio of prompt-...

Recently, flow-based generative models have shown superior efficiency compared to diffusion models. In this paper, we study rectified flow models, which constrain transport trajectories to be linear from the base distribution to the data distribution. This structural restriction greatly accelerates sampling, often enab...

Despite rapid progress in robotics, complex or long-horizon tasks remain a fundamental challenge. Most current approaches follow an open-loop paradigm with limited reasoning and no feedback, resulting in poor robustness to environmental changes and severe error accumulation. We present RoboPilot, a dual-thinking closed...

Chain-of-Thought (CoT) prompting can substantially improve the reasoning ability of large language models (LLMs), but it often comes with high inference cost due to long and poorly controlled reasoning traces. This overhead is particularly problematic in software engineering tasks (e.g., code generation), where both la...

Statutory corpora and judicial decisions are growing faster than legal professionals can read them, while individual judgments often exceed the context limits of standard encoder models. Transformer architectures dominate legal NLP benchmarks, but their quadratic attention complexity can require truncating or fragmenti...
Many physical systems do not merely move or deform; they grow, adding material and changing the geometry that a world model must represent. Existing world models are typically optimized for pixel prediction, reward prediction, or fixed-support physical dynamics, leaving open how to model systems whose underlying physic...
We present Adjacent Possible Exploration (APE), a selective fine-tuning method for adapting large language models that systematically explores parameter modifications while maintaining model stability. Inspired by evolutionary optimization principles, APE evaluates multiple candidate parameter updates through fine-tuni...
Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models have recently advanced robotic manipulation by translating natural-language instructions and visual observations into control actions. However, existing VLAs are primarily trained on successful expert demonstrations and lack structured supervision for failure diagnosis and recovery,...

Generative Artificial Intelligence (GenAI) constitutes a transformative technological wave that reconfigures industries through its unparalleled capabilities for content creation, reasoning, planning, and multimodal understanding. This revolutionary force offers the most promising path yet toward solving one of enginee...

In-context learning lets a sequence model adapt to a new task from examples in its input. A prominent line of work shows how self-attention can be constructed to implement gradient descent on a linear predictor fit to the in-context examples during the forward pass. State-space models (SSMs) and other linear recurrent...
The process of identifying human emotion and affective states from speech is known as speech emotion recognition (SER). This is based on the observation that tone and pitch in the voice frequently convey underlying emotion. Speech recognition includes the ability to recognize emotions, which is becoming increasingly po...
With $2.1 million funding from Google.org, the open-source Public Transit Intelligence Hub will unify public transit monitoring, operations, and passenger communication.
Professor Sherry Turkle’s new book, “Artificial Intimacy,” offers a withering critique of chatbots and the antisocial dynamics she believes they encourage.
