The evolution of machine learning has progressively changed where intelligence resides in an AI system. In conventional machine learning the task, data representation, labels and model architecture were tightly coupled, so data preparation was narrow, schema-bound and visible. Generative AI decouples the model from any...

Compact time-frequency separators that mask the mixture and refine through a shared cell face two limits. First, a bounded multiplicative mask only scales a mixture bin, so where overlapping components cancel, the estimate stays small. Second, a shared cell applies the same weights to every time-frequency token at ever...

Visual speech promises noise-robust keyword spotting, yet a visual stream is not necessarily used. On a tri-modal query-by-example keyword spotting (QbyE-KWS) benchmark, we find that a system with a task-trained visual encoder comes within 2 percentage points of a text-and-audio system in equal error rate (EER) at -10...

Large Language Models (LLMs) have achieved remarkable capabilities but remain vulnerable to jailbreak attacks that elicit harmful or unsafe outputs. Existing safety alignment approaches, including Supervised Fine-Tuning (SFT) and Reinforcement Learning from Human Feedback (RLHF), often require substantial attack-specif...

Traditional data pipelines are notoriously brittle, often failing due to upstream schema drift, API contract changes, or website DOM modifications. Present observability tools only raise alerts but for human engineers, resulting in a high Mean Time to Repair (MTTR) and operational fatigue. In this paper we propose Aegi...

Text-to-speech (TTS) development is limited by scarcity of high-quality, publicly available speech data for most languages outside a few high-resource languages. We present Nord-Parl-TTS, an open TTS dataset for Finnish and Swedish based on speech found in the wild. Using recordings of Nordic parliamentary proceedings,...

Synthesizing second-language (L2) speech is potentially highly valued for L2 language learning experience and feedback. However, due to the lack of L2 speech synthesis datasets, it is difficult to synthesize L2 speech for low-resourced languages. In this paper, we provide a practical solution for editing native speech...
Scientific research often begins by synthesizing ideas from a set of related papers to identify gaps and formulate new directions. However, training language models to perform this form of literature-grounded ideation remains challenging, as existing approaches based on prompting or feedback lack structured supervision...

A common approach to measuring bias in Large Language Models is to compare the log-likelihoods of two contrastive stereotype sentences. We argue that such single-pair comparisons are often unreliable: simply rewriting the same stereotype with an alternative attribute can yield logically inconsistent preferences. To add...

Reusing the scores that select a Best-of-$N$ winner can overstate its expected reward. We study evaluation from a fixed matrix of $K$ independent scores per candidate for a policy that selects using $J$ fresh scores. A single estimator based only on this matrix is exactly unbiased for expected judge reward under every...
In K-12 mathematics tutoring, student-tutor dialogue provides rich evidence of learners' problem-solving processes and sources of difficulty. Learning analytics research increasingly relies on large language models (LLMs) to extract such information from dialogue for a variety of downstream tasks, including knowledge t...

Financial reports repeat values across periods, metrics and accounting lines, allowing an LLM-generated calculation to be numerically correct while citing the wrong financial role. We evaluate what probabilistic evidence verification adds beyond number matching using Jev as a source-support verifier for GPT-4.1-mini ca...
