Attribution Gaps in Zero-Training LLM+OVOD Pipelines: A Fine-Grained Analysis of the CAAP--SNAP Discrepancy

The upshot is that a large share of the apparent CAAP--SNAP gap traces back to closed-category annotation limits rather than a real grounding failure, which matters for how the authors detect hallucination, analyze failure modes, and design evaluation for grounded multimodal systems meant to work in the open world.

Reading Is Not Leaking: Local, Auditable Measurement and Reduction of Inference Exposure from Public Footprints

Anyone with a public footprint leaks facts that were never stated, and language models make the inference cheap. We present a framework for measuring and reducing this inference exposure that runs on the owner's own CPU with no language model at analysis time, instantiated on organisations and on individuals. It starts...

Checking Leakage Witnesses versus Certifying Bounded Non-Leakage

When a language-model audit finds no leak, what is needed to certify non-leakage? We study guarantees over a declared prompt domain under an executable leakage criterion and decoding rule. For general bounded polynomial-time evaluators, a supplied leaking execution is polynomial-time checkable, while leak existence is...

Improving Audiovisual Speech Recognition through Synthetic Visual Data Augmentation

This work explores the use of synthetic visual data as a solution, using an audio-driven talking-head pipeline to generate lip-synchronized visual content from existing audio data and demonstrates that synthetic data alone can serve as a baseline for AVSR training in languages lacking AV datasets.

Distributional Metrics for Evaluating Spoken Conversational Systems

The Conversational Distribution Score (CDS) is introduced, which compares distributions of conversational behaviour using human conversations as a reference, and how many minutes and conversations are required before rankings stabilize is examined.

Retrieving Biblical Intertextual References in Karen Blixen's Seven Gothic Tales

Identifying intertextual references is central to literary scholarship, but computationally difficult when source material is transformed through paraphrase, allusion, historical language, and translation. We investigate this problem through biblical intertextuality in Karen Blixen's Seven Gothic Tales. Drawing on the...

Scaling Long-Form Story Generation via Narrative State Tracking

NstAgent is introduced, a training-free agentic framework that allows LLMs to track a structured narrative state including characters, past events and future requirements, and shows that NstAgent achieves better narrative consistency and writing quality as stories grow longer, suggesting that it provides an effective a...

QuanReview: Offline, Auditable Reconciliation of Human and LLM Span Annotations

QuanReview aligns two annotation streams over the same documents at character level, resolves unambiguous cases by an explicit and logged policy, and routes candidate conflicts to a browser-based adjudication interface where reviewers accept either side, build field-level hybrids, or flag items for re-annotation.

Tracing the Evolution of Oracle Bone Characters Across Three Millennia

The proposed MSEF represents each character as an era-specific manifold point and learns continuous inter-era transition rules via Neural Ordinary Differential Equations, which can be trained end-to-end through character evolution pairs across any two eras.

Proof-based general-purpose computing with Magnetar

Zero-knowledge proofs can verify computing results without rerunning workloads or exposing sensitive data. Magnetar helps bring them into the mainstream with support for standard programming languages, major speed gains, and quantum-resistant security. The post Proof-based general-purpose computing with Magnetar appeared first on Microsoft Research.
