Beyond Distributional Fidelity: Causal-Penalized Diffusion for Synthetic Tabular Data

Synthetic tabular generators are commonly optimized for distributional fidelity, but statistical similarity alone does not guarantee preservation of causal effects. In this paper, we study whether causal fidelity can be improved directly within a fully generative tabular model. Causal Fidelity is defined with respect t...

WAM-Cache: Staleness-Bounded KV Reuse for Efficient World Action Models

World Action Models (WAMs) enable generalist robot manipulation by conditioning an action expert on representations from a pretrained video Diffusion Transformer (DiT). In closed-loop control, the video DiT runs at every chunk to encode the current observation into layerwise key-value (KV) pairs that the action expert...

PlanWAM: Planning-Shaped Future Representations for End-to-End Autonomous Driving

World models in end-to-end autonomous driving predict future scene evolution to provide foresight for trajectory planning. Existing methods mainly study how to predict the future and how to use it, but less often ask which future representation is actually most useful for planning. To this end, we propose PlanWAM, a Pl...

FloorSAV: Elucidating Spatial Audio-Visual Context with 2D Floormap for AV-LLMs

While 3D spatial reasoning in dynamic egocentric environments is crucial for embodied intelligence, audio-visual large language models (AV-LLMs) lack explicit mechanisms to process and internalize global geometry directly from raw sensory streams. Existing approaches either require costly fine-tuning or underutilize th...

Being-M0.7: A Latent World-Action Model for Humanoid Robots

Humanoid loco-manipulation requires coordinated locomotion and manipulation informed by future scene evolution and whole-body motion, yet learning these capabilities is constrained by scarce robot demonstrations. Human video and motion datasets offer scalable supervision, but many contain only video or motion rather th...

Phonological Interference in Multilingual Speech Models

Phoneme-level models transcribe or generate speech as a sequence of phonemes, the smallest sound units that distinguish words. These models enable fine-grained pronunciation control and understanding, yet often fail on input that does not match any single training language, such as speech alternating between two langua...

Q-Capsule: A Localized Capsule-Based Quantum Neural Architecture for Barren Plateau Mitigation

Variational quantum algorithms are often limited by barren plateaus: gradients vanish as circuit size and depth increase, making quantum neural networks difficult to train. We propose Q-Capsule, a localized capsule-based quantum neural architecture that mitigates this problem through register partitioning, local readou...

V-CoLA: Vision Token Compression with Linear Attention

Vision-language models (VLMs) have demonstrated impressive capabilities but suffer from substantial computational overhead, as vision tokens dominate the input sequence. This motivates vision token compression as a key direction to alleviate the burden. However, with the emergence of hybrid architectures incorporating...

Cross-species representation learning aligns mouse and human neural dynamics and tracks clinical drug efficacy

Preclinical models poorly predict human drug efficacy, particularly in neurological disorders. Neural activity offers a uniquely rich source of translational information because it captures high-dimensional variation in nervous-system function that can be measured in both animals and humans. However, its high dimension...

BRACE: Differential Privacy for Dense Associative Memory with LSR Energy

This paper proposes the Boundary-Responsive Adaptive Correction Evolution (BRACE) algorithm, a differentially private retrieval mechanism for LSR-DAM that adaptively corrects boundary-sensitive perturbations to control their cumulative effect over the retrieval trajectory.

Dissecting Representation Structure in Vision Transformers: A Rigorous Architectural Study

Representation structure is crucial for understanding Vision Transformer (ViT) architectures and their generalization behavior. However, prior studies neither isolate nor analyze module-level features nor investigate how their interactions contribute to performance estimation. In this work, we conduct the first rigorou...

PageWeaver: KV-Guided Query Unions for Sparse Attention

Dynamic sparse attention limits the KV pages selected by each query, but a small support does not necessarily yield efficient GPU work. Query unions share page loads and populate Tensor Core tiles; their cost depends on which queries are grouped together. We present PageWeaver, an execution design that uses selected-pa...

Q&A: How AI came to model the “messy” human mind

Assistant Professor Benjamin Lindquist studies how engineers deliberately injected randomness into early AI, giving rise to deep-learning models that sometimes hallucinate.
