Existing deep-learning and geometric-reconstruction approaches often require large datasets, external localization, or complex modeling assumptions, reducing transparency and deployment suitability on resource-constrained platforms. We present an interpretable fuzzy-inference framework that generates continuous yaw commands from low-dimensional features extracted from YOLO boxes: target centroid location,…

In this work, we present a modular perception pipeline for household manipulation tasks, with a focus on dishware handling in kitchen environments. The pipeline integrates open-vocabulary object detection, multi-view segmentation, instance-aware 3D reconstruction, and a 2D-3D feature fusion strategy for 6D pose estimation and grasp planning. Its modular design enables systematic substitution of multiple visual and geometric foundation models, allowing us to identify the best-performing configuration through extensive evaluation on a custom kitchen dataset.

Existing approaches rely on complex 3D reconstruction, which are computationally expensive and require extensive multi-view data. We propose PADFormer, a novel image-space approach that leverages Vision Transformer (ViT) to directly reconstruct anomaly-free versions of query images while preserving pose information. Our key insight is to adapt cross-view masked reconstruction for anomaly detection through training exclusively on normal data, combined with dynamic patch selection and spatial alignment mechanisms that enable effective learning from spa…

This setting is difficult for standard RGB-only recognition models and general-purpose vision-language models, especially when calibrated thermal and LiDAR aircraft data are unavailable. We present TriCLE, an application-oriented tri-modal vision-language system for aircraft taxonomic grouping under edge constraints. From a single RGB aircraft image, TriCLE generates a structure-preserving FLIR-style thermal view and a pseudo-LiDAR depth projection, then fuses the aligned views with task instructions in a compact Qwen3-VL backbone. The model is aligned to an expert aircra…

Separate visual and terrain encoders preserve modality-specific features. At an early encoder stage, Topographic Energy-Spectral Rectification applies terrain-conditioned low-frequency modulation and asymmetric high-frequency regulation to suppress steep-slope clutter and conditionally enhance compatible low-slope rice cues.

Existing visual token reducers often operate at prescribed rates, while recent methods adapt token counts across inputs using method-specific learned thresholds or importance predictors. We introduce RUTA, a principled Rate-Utility Token Allocation method that performs pre-LLM reduction by jointly learning which tokens to retain and how many to allocate to each image-query pair. RUTA constructs query-conditioned candidate tokens and predicts a retention probability for…

We introduce Radar4D-VLM, a radar-only temporal vision-language model that reasons from ten consecutive 4D-radar point-cloud sweeps without camera or LiDAR input. Radar4D-VLM extracts geometrically grounded object proposals and organizes radar evidence into a compact hierarchy of object, scene, and kinematic tokens. A parameter-efficient projector maps these tokens into frozen language backbones, while auditable prediction heads jointly model object count, spatial distributio…

Millimeter-wave (mmWave) radar provides a privacy-friendly and contactless sensing modality, but radar observations are difficult to align with language. Existing radar-language methods often rely on synthetic data or lack explicit supervision for human body structure and motion. We present mmMind, a radar-language model that uses synchronized 3D pose as training-only supervision. A spatio-temporal radar encoder is pretrained to capture body configuration and motion dynamics, after which the pose head is removed so that inference requires radar alone. The learned radar representations are then aligned with an LLM for behavior cap…

Existing methods typically rely on long textual chain-of-thought rationales, even though many questions can be answered as soon as the relevant object, action, or frame is localized. We propose Dynamic Latent Reasoning (DyLaR), which first grounds a question in a short block of perception latents (continuous hidden states that encode query-relevant visual evidence), and then adaptively decides whether to append reasoning latents (continuous thoughts that reason over this evidence in latent space) before answering. DyLaR learns this behavior by grounding perception laten…

We introduce GEB-Bench, a benchmark whose unit is an abstract structural motif--self-reference, a strange loop, a Mobius twist--in the spirit of Godel, Escher, Bach. Each motif is told in several voices: a natural scene whose composition is the structure, a folk story whose telling enacts it through a mechanically checkable form device, a mathematical theorem, and a programmatic skeleton; surface parameters are declared nuisance variables and never scored. Motifs, voices, and the structural changes between them form a small cross-modal category, and GEB-Bench's tasks are its questions. Evaluating twelve open and proprietary…

However, extending dense matching to global-scale remote sensing remains challenging because image pairs may differ in acquisition time, season, viewpoint, spatial resolution, and land-cover state. The resulting large geometric offsets, partial overlap, and intrinsically unmatchable regions make direct dense correspondence prediction unreliable and inefficient. We thus reformulate dense matching as localization-and-registration: first localizing the matchable overlap and affine geometry, then refining dense residuals within the aligned frame. Based on this formulation, we propose LoRe…

Large language models could, in principle, bridge this gap, but they frequently hallucinate due to limited domain-specific knowledge, and standard reference-based or LLM-as-a-judge frameworks cannot reliably detect these errors.

Graph neural networks (GNNs) complement LMs by incorporating inter-patient relationships and enabling reference-patient attribution, yet they rely on high-quality patient representations. We propose Patients-like-me (PLM), a unified LM--GNN framework that integrates local patient semantics with global cohort structure. To train PLM efficiently, we introduce a Variational Expectation-Maximization algorithm that alternates LM and GNN updates under a supervised variational objective. Extensive experiments on MIMIC-III and MIMIC-IV show that…

The relevance of the work stems from the absence of a comprehensive digital lexicographic resource for Tajik that is comparable in functionality to dictionaries for high-resource languages, and from the limited adaptation of modern natural language processing technologies to low-resource language systems. Based on a systematic survey of existing linguistic, statistical, and corpus resources, we propose a dictionary architecture that integrates modules for morphological analysis, lemmatization, semantic clustering, and dictionary entry generation using LLMs. The ch…

We probe this with activation patching under a four-donor design whose two swapped-rule donors make the condition and the answer word disagree, so each layer reveals which of the two it carries. Across three open models from two families and six languages sharing one fixed item bank, a mid-stack residual band carries the predicate's truth value: patching it reroutes the answer with predicate-outcome flip near 1.0 and mapping flip near 0.0, meeting a strict pre-specified isolation criterion in 17 of 18 cells, and…

We test whether the native-vs-translate gap on MGSM (German, Thai, Swahili) is a token-budget artifact for Qwen3-8B and Llama-3.1-8B-Instruct under four prompting strategies. The measured gap swings by up to 57 points across budgets, length normalization moves it by up to 38.9 points where the cap binds, and at tight caps normalization can reverse which strategy scores higher.

Most NLP systems discard this disagreement by collapsing it into a majority vote. We propose the Multi-Agent Perspectivist Preference Optimization (MAP-PO) framework to keep these different perspectives. On the EXIST 2024 dataset of labeled English and Spanish tweets, we first cluster annotators by their labeling behavior rather than their demographic attributes. We then fine-tune one Large Language Model agent per cluster to reproduce that cluster's annotation behavior, and coordinate the agents with preference optimization that combines individual and team-level rewards.

We investigate reconstructing explicit persistent worlds from narrative descriptions as the central computational objective for narrative-grounded interactive realization. Rather than treating the world as an implicit by-product of downstream generation, our approa…

We show this assumption fails. Our two-probe design holds a repeated-target prefix fixed and varies only the readout position: the adjacent probe places the slot immediately after the repeated block; the displaced probe places it inside a fresh sentence frame. Adjacent repetition behaves as priming intuition predicts: $P(\text{target})$ climbs with $N$ and plateaus. Displaced repetition produces an inverted-U: $P(\text{target})$ rises to an early peak and then declines as more copies are added. The displaced inverted-U shows a per-wor…

Existing cycle-aware forecasters commonly rely on a single period selected at the dataset level, which can be restrictive when periodic behavior changes over time or when multiple cycles coexist. Moreover, patch-based models typically process all patch positions uni- formly, although patches farther from the forecast boundary may require broader contextual refinement, while recent patches contain information that should be preserved more directly. Af- ter cyclic behavior is removed, the remaining dynamics may also span multiple temporal resolution…

Starting from a 2-bit model obtained via post-training quantization (PTQ) or round-to-nearest (RTN), RRQ progressively adds lightweight 2-bit residuals generated via RTN to construct 4…

These pipelines answer \textit{what happened}, but they do not explain \textit{why the model believes it} or \textit{what the operator should do next}, and they do not put a human-readable name on the novelty clusters they discover.

The state-of-the-art R-Matrix codes currently used by physicists to fit these data often depend on prior evaluations and require substantial manual effort. This preliminary study demonstrates a method for accelerating the post-experimental processing of neutron transmission data and reducing bias associated with dependence on prior evaluations.

Specifically, in this framework, the magnitude of the update step for each individual weight is constrained within a trust-region governed by a moment constraint of order $p\in[2,4]$. The resulting derivation then leads to a family of learning-rate mechanisms based on second-moment estimation and a normalized $p$-th moment estimation. When $p=4$, this involves kurtosis-like estimation. The general mechanism, referred to as \textsc{Gmake}, provides a unified interpretation of normalization by moment estimation, learning-rate schedulin…
