This paper presents a method for modeling optical dynamic range compressors using deep neural networks with Selective State Space models. The proposed approach surpasses previous methods based on recurrent layers by employing a Selective State Space block to encode the input audio. It features a refined technique integ...
Bundle recommendation ranks sets of related items rather than isolated items. Its central challenge is to connect user preferences, item interactions, and bundle composition without losing the signals needed to rank bundles. We propose Hypergraph-Enhanced Dual Convolutional Neural Network (HED), which constructs a comp...

Personalization is classically a two-party problem: a sender chooses what to say, and a receiver with independent objectives decides whether to act. A salesperson pitching the same analytics product leads with HIPAA compliance for a hospital and real-time reporting for a retailer, expecting a different argument to work...

Runtime oversight often intervenes when an LLM agent's calibrated failure score crosses a threshold. Yet states with the same failure risk can differ in whether intervention helps. Strictly increasing recalibration preserves the threshold policy class and cannot recover this distinction. We formalize when a summary is...

Computer-use agents can complete benign user instructions while violating important constraints of the user's environment. We introduce OSGuard, a dual-granularity benchmark suite for evaluating safety through local, pre-execution guardrail decisions and end-to-end task execution. Its action-level benchmark contains 32...

Even when a tool is explicitly described as unfair and harmful to others, ostensibly safety-aligned LLM agents still voluntarily engage in secret collusion whenever doing so confers a strategic advantage. To investigate this phenomenon, we introduce an empirical framework built on two strategic multi-agent environments...
Current safety alignment of foundation models largely follows a \emph{one-size-fits-all} paradigm, applying the same refusal policy across users and contexts. As a result, models may refuse requests that are unsafe for general users but legitimate for authorized professionals, limiting helpfulness in specialized profes...

Embodied agents in household environments must plan under partial observation: they need to remember objects, track state changes, and recover when actions fail. Existing benchmarks only partially test this ability. Egocentric video datasets capture realistic human activities but remain passive, while interactive simul...

Knowledge Graph Question Answering (KGQA) aims to answer user questions by reasoning over Knowledge Graphs (KGs). Recent methods use supervision derived from answer labels or refined by Large Language Models (LLMs) to train models that retrieve KG evidence for LLM-based answer reasoning. However, answer-derived supervi...

Vector quantization (VQ) with autoregressive (AR) token modeling is a widely adopted and highly competitive paradigm for time-series generation. However, such models are fundamentally limited by exposure bias: during inference, errors can accumulate across sequential predictions, leading to pronounced quality degradati...

Executing a multi-agent plan can be challenging when an agent is delayed, because this typically creates conflicts with other agents. So, we need to quickly find a new safe plan. Replanning only the delayed agent often does not yield an efficient plan, and sometimes cannot even yield a feasible one. On the other hand,...

Molecule generation from extremely limited training data is a key challenge in drug discovery. Existing fragment-based methods are more suitable than atom-based approaches in this regime, but typically optimize fragment selection separately from downstream generation. Expert feedback is also especially valuable with li...
