From Thermal Preference Prediction to Adaptive Thermal Intervention: A Reinforcement Learning Approach Using Physiological and Environmental Sensing

arXiv:2608.20423v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Personalised thermal comfort is essential for occupant wellbeing and for the development of more responsive building-control strategies, yet conventional Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning (HVAC) systems rely on static setpoints and population

BF1: A Causal Dyadic Sparse-Attention Retrofit for Efficient Long-Context Transformers

arXiv:2608.20427v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Dense causal attention remains expensive at long context even when implemented with highly optimized exact kernels. We study BF1, a deterministic block-aligned dyadic sparse-attention route that combines a small exact local neighborhood, a global firs

Approximate Homomorphisms and Convergent Representations in Transducers

arXiv:2608.20428v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We study the stability of minimal representations of controlled stochastic processes (in particular, transducers) under perturbations. This question is motivated by recent experiments finding predictive-state structure in the latent representations of

Wrong-Physics Backdoors in Neural PDE Operators

arXiv:2608.20439v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Neural PDE operators are increasingly trained on reusable solver archives, yet validation often relies on clean prediction error and parameter-agnostic plausibility checks. We introduce cross-parameter relinking, a data-poisoning primitive that makes

Decision Tree and K-Means Analysis of Raman Spectra for Edible Oils: A Physics-Informed AI Approach

arXiv:2608.20440v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Authentication of edible oils in processed foods is important for food quality, fraud prevention, and regulatory compliance. This study establishes an integrated Raman spectroscopy and machine-learning framework that links intrinsic spectral organizat

Shared Physics Responses Recover Hidden Rankings in Neural Operator Libraries

arXiv:2608.20441v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Selecting the optimal neural-operator prediction during deployment is challenging when high-fidelity reference solutions are unavailable. We demonstrate that under a squared Hilbert-space loss, ranking a finite model library depends strictly on the lo

Stored in Optimizer State, Valued by Later Training: A Causal Account of Subliminal Trait Transfer

arXiv:2608.20442v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Subliminal trait transfer allows a student model to acquire behavioral dispositions from teacher-generated data in which the trait is not semantically expressed. Recent work explains how such signals enter gradients, but not how they survive source re

Amortized Bandwidth Learning for Kernel Density Estimation under Logarithmic Score

arXiv:2608.20445v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Kernel density estimation converts finite samples into probability densities, but its performance depends critically on bandwidth selection. Classical selectors prescribe the sample-to-bandwidth rule analytically or asymptotically, or solve a new opti

Mutual information and sensitivity analysis for feature selection in customer targeting: a comparative study

arXiv:2608.20447v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Feature selection is a highly relevant task in a data-driven knowledge discovery project. Several techniques have been developed aiming at finding the features that influence most an outcome to predict, including mutual information and, in recent year

When Clean Data Hurts: Learning with Monotone Corruptions Beyond Binary Classification

arXiv:2608.20480v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Optimal learners are tailored to exploit the i.i.d.\ data assumption underlying the classic PAC model. What if an i.i.d.\ training sample were corrupted with correctly labeled examples drawn from an otherwise unrelated, even adversarial source? This m

Metag: A dataset to build agentic meta-reviewing capabilities

arXiv:2608.20488v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: AI tools increasingly support tasks across the scientific research cycle, from experiment design and manuscript preparation to peer review. At the same time, the continuing growth in conference submissions has increased the burden on meta-reviewers, w

Bern2Edge: A Neurosymbolic Compiler for Edge Deployment via Bernstein Polynomial Networks

arXiv:2608.20497v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Deploying high-accuracy neural networks on resource-constrained edge devices remains challenging, as existing approaches treat training, compression, and hardware synthesis as separate stages, leaving a gap between software-trained models and efficien

When Graph-JEPA Learns the Wrong Thing: Diagnosing and Repairing Category-Conditional Collapse

arXiv:2608.20516v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Joint-embedding predictive architectures are selected almost universally by linear probing and effective rank. We report a case where both read healthily while the representation carries zero usable instance information. We repair it, and a second fai

Learning Exact NVIDIA SASS Encoders with $\mathbb{F}_2$ Linear Algebra

arXiv:2608.20532v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: NVIDIA provides a SASS disassembler but no public SASS assembler for recent data-center GPUs, limiting controlled machine-code rewriting. We present F2Asm, which learns exact 128-bit SASS encoders from paired disassembly and original CUBIN instruction

AgentDecarbonizer: Carbon-Aware Execution for AI Agents

arXiv:2608.20566v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: AI agents extend large language models from single prompt-response interactions to long-running, goaldirected workflows that issue many model calls, invoke tools, and interact with external environments. These workflows enable tasks such as software r

Faults That Fortify: CNN Adversarial Robustness via GPU Undervolting

arXiv:2608.20572v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) face a dual challenge: vulnerability to adversarial attacks and prohibitive training cost. Adversarial training is effective but expensive, a burden that grows as learning shifts to the energy-constrained edge. Thi

Provable Edge-of-Stability for Adam on a One-Dimensional Quadratic

arXiv:2608.20638v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The edge-of-stability (EoS) phenomenon of Adam has been widely observed, while its underlying dynamical mechanism is not yet fully understood. We study uncorrected Adam on a one-dimensional quadratic, a clean setting where constant curvature isolates

C-Score: Beyond Accuracy for Robustness Assessment in Semi-Supervised Learning under Open-World Unlabeled Contamination

arXiv:2608.20667v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Pseudo-label-based semi-supervised learning has achieved strong performance due to its simplicity and scalability. However, it is typically developed under a closed-world assumption that unlabeled data are drawn from the same distribution as labeled d
