Can I Have Your Order? Monte-Carlo Tree Search for Slot Filling Ordering in Diffusion Language Models
arXiv:2602.12586v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: While plan-and-infill decoding in Masked Diffusion Models (MDMs) shows promise for mathematical and code reasoning, performance remains highly sensitive to slot infilling order, often yielding substantial output variance. We introduce McDiffuSE, a framework that formulates...
Language-Guided Invariance Probing of Vision-Language Models
arXiv:2511.13494v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Recent vision-language models (VLMs) such as CLIP, OpenCLIP, EVA02-CLIP and SigLIP achieve strong zero-shot performance, but it is unclear how reliably they respond to controlled linguistic perturbations. We introduce Language-Guided Invariance Probing (LGIP), a benchmark...
Quantum walk inspired JPEG compression of images
arXiv:2602.12306v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: This work proposes a quantum inspired adaptive quantization framework that enhances the classical JPEG compression by introducing a learned, optimized Qtable derived using a Quantum Walk Inspired Optimization (QWIO) search strategy. The optimizer searches a...
Visible and Hyperspectral Imaging for Quality Assessment of Milk: Property Characterisation and Identification
arXiv:2602.12313v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Rapid and non-destructive assessment of milk quality is crucial to ensuring both nutritional value and food safety. In this study, we investigated the potential of visible and hyperspectral imaging as cost-effective and quick-response alternatives to...
Reproducing DragDiffusion: Interactive Point-Based Editing with Diffusion Models
arXiv:2602.12393v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: DragDiffusion is a diffusion-based method for interactive point-based image editing that enables users to manipulate images by directly dragging selected points. The method claims that accurate spatial control can be achieved by optimizing a single...
Discovering Semantic Latent Structures in Psychological Scales: A Response-Free Pathway to Efficient Simplification
arXiv:2602.12575v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Psychological scale refinement traditionally relies on response-based methods such as factor analysis, item response theory, and network psychometrics to optimize item composition. Although rigorous, these approaches require large samples and may be constrained by data...
Unleashing Low-Bit Inference on Ascend NPUs: A Comprehensive Evaluation of HiFloat Formats
arXiv:2602.12635v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: As LLMs scale, low-bit floating-point formats like MXFP and NVFP4 offer new opportunities for precision and efficiency. In this work, we evaluate HiFloat (HiF8 and HiF4), a family of formats tailored for Ascend NPUs. Through...
Aspect-Based Sentiment Analysis for Future Tourism Experiences: A BERT-MoE Framework for Persian User Reviews
arXiv:2602.12778v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: This study advances aspect-based sentiment analysis (ABSA) for Persian-language user reviews in the tourism domain, addressing challenges of low-resource languages. We propose a hybrid BERT-based model with Top-K routing and auxiliary losses to mitigate routing...
TraceBack: Multi-Agent Decomposition for Fine-Grained Table Attribution
arXiv:2602.13059v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Question answering (QA) over structured tables requires not only accurate answers but also transparency about which cells support them. Existing table QA systems rarely provide fine-grained attribution, so even correct answers often lack verifiable grounding,...
The Appeal and Reality of Recycling LoRAs with Adaptive Merging
arXiv:2602.12323v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The widespread availability of fine-tuned LoRA modules for open pre-trained models has led to an interest in methods that can adaptively merge LoRAs to improve performance. These methods typically include some way of selecting LoRAs...
Synthetic Interaction Data for Scalable Personalization in Large Language Models
arXiv:2602.12394v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Personalized prompting offers large opportunities for deploying large language models (LLMs) to diverse users, yet existing prompt optimization methods primarily focus on task-level optimization while largely overlooking user-specific preferences and latent constraints of individual users....
Analytical Results for Two Exponential Family Distributions in Hierarchical Dirichlet Processes
arXiv:2602.12527v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The Hierarchical Dirichlet Process (HDP) provides a flexible Bayesian nonparametric framework for modeling grouped data with a shared yet unbounded collection of mixture components. While existing applications of the HDP predominantly focus on the Dirichlet-multinomial...
AMPS: Adaptive Modality Preference Steering via Functional Entropy
arXiv:2602.12533v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) often exhibit significant modality preference, which is a tendency to favor one modality over another. Depending on the input, they may over-rely on linguistic priors relative to visual evidence, or...
Fractional Order Federated Learning for Battery Electric Vehicle Energy Consumption Modeling
arXiv:2602.12567v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Federated learning on connected electric vehicles (BEVs) faces severe instability due to intermittent connectivity, time-varying client participation, and pronounced client-to-client variation induced by diverse operating conditions. Conventional FedAvg and many advanced methods can suffer from...
VI-CuRL: Stabilizing Verifier-Independent RL Reasoning via Confidence-Guided Variance Reduction
arXiv:2602.12579v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Reinforcement Learning with Verifiable Rewards (RLVR) has emerged as a dominant paradigm for enhancing Large Language Models (LLMs) reasoning, yet its reliance on external verifiers limits its scalability. Recent findings suggest that RLVR primarily functions...
Block-Sample MAC-Bayes Generalization Bounds
arXiv:2602.12605v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We present a family of novel block-sample MAC-Bayes bounds (mean approximately correct). While PAC-Bayes bounds (probably approximately correct) typically give bounds for the generalization error that hold with high probability, MAC-Bayes bounds have a similar...
