Target-Language Generation in Multilingual Models: Activation Steering and Optimal Control

Ensuring that multilingual language models generate coherent text in a specific target language is a major issue in multilingual language modeling. We develop an optimal control method for target-language text generation as well as a framework for evaluating the quality of generated text in terms of language adherence, linguistic coherence, and semantic coherence. We find that the proposed method performs at least as well as the prominent difference-in-means activation steering method for the majority of models tested, with substantially less hyperparameter tuning required.

Mind2Dialogue: Training Human-Aware Language Models by Simulating User Mental States

As language models become more capable, long-term collaboration in learning, reasoning, and decision-making calls for a deeper understanding of the people they serve. Yet training such human-aware language models faces a fundamental supervision gap because current datasets for LLM assistant training contain few if any well-informed responses explicitly grounded in users' unspoken beliefs and goals. Scaling such supervision is inherently constrained, as users' underlying states are not directly observable. We thus propose the Mind2Dialogue framework to mitigate this gap by simulating users' mental states and turning them into privileged supervision for human-aware training. Specifically, we first propose a psychology-guided simulator that preserves personal characteristics while updating mental states through interaction to generate coherent conversations. The key idea is to enforce a shared evolving mental state that drives user behavior and guides an Oracle assistant's responses. Our privileged distillation then trains models on the Oracle's well-informed responses to assist users without direct access to their mental states at deployment. Moreover, we propose to evaluate human-aware learning by combining personalization and theory of mind, examining how models understand people and act on that understanding. Training on the full Mind2Dialogue corpus improves every reported personalization metric over the corresponding Qwen, Llama, and OLMo instruction-tuned baselines, including gains of 26.6 to 40.9 percentage points in preference-following generation. The gains extend to belief and action reasoning on Qwen and Llama, beyond personalized assistance. Looking forward, Mind2Dialogue makes user simulation a foundation for genuine AI collaborators that understand beliefs and intentions behind people's words and support their long-term goals across education, work, and everyday life.

CMA-OT: Hierarchical Expert Supervision for Dance-to-Music Generation

Dance-to-music (D2M) generation aims to synthesize music that is rhythmically and stylistically aligned with dance videos. A key challenge arises from the semantic mismatch between sparse dance cues, such as rhythm and style, and the dense information required for music composition, including structure, instrumentation, and expressive dynamics. Existing methods typically rely on these sparse cues and supervise only the final audio output, resulting in poorly learned music representations and generated music with limited musicality and structural coherence. To address these issues, we propose Curriculum-guided Multi-scale representation Alignment with scale-aware Optimal Transport (CMA-OT), a novel paradigm that leverages an external music expert to provide hierarchical supervision for the generator's latent features, bridging the semantic gap and enhancing representation learning. To effectively incorporate hierarchical supervision, we introduce a curriculum-guided multi-scale learning strategy that progressively transfers musical knowledge from the expert to the music generator, enabling stable and effective representation learning. Moreover, to accommodate the semantic and structural variations across different expert scales and achieve fine-grained alignment under temporal mismatch, we propose a scale-aware optimal transport alignment mechanism, which models soft correspondences between hierarchical expert representations and the generator's latent features. Extensive experiments on two datasets demonstrate that CMA-OT achieves state-of-the-art performance in rhythmic synchronization, perceptual quality, and overall music generation.

LoaDiff: Conditional Generation of Electricity Consumption Time Series for Energy Analytics

The energy transition is reshaping residential electricity consumption through the increasing adoption of distributed generation, electrified appliances, and demand-response programs. Understanding these evolving behaviors requires access to granular smart-meter data for applications such as load forecasting, appliance detection, and demand-side flexibility analysis. However, such data are subject to strict access restrictions and data-protection regulations. Thus, realistic synthetic alternatives are necessary. In this paper, we introduce LoaDiff, a diffusion-based generative model for year-long, sub-hourly smart-meter load curves. LoaDiff supports flexible conditioning on static household attributes, such as appliance ownership, and dynamic contextual variables, including calendar information and outdoor temperature. We evaluate the model against multiple generative baselines on three residential electricity-consumption datasets. Our experiments assess four complementary dimensions: fidelity and diversity, training-record memorization risk, downstream utility for load forecasting and appliance detection, and conditional controllability under alternative temperature conditions. The results show that LoaDiff generates realistic and diverse load profiles, achieves a favorable trade-off between generation quality and limited evidence of memorization, preserves information useful for downstream energy applications, and responds coherently to changes in conditioning variables.

IdeaAMBIG: Benchmarking Implementation-Critical Gaps in Research-Idea Specifications

A research idea may be novel, coherent, and scientifically plausible, yet its proposed method may remain insufficiently specified for faithful implementation. We study the codification readiness of implementation-facing research-method specifications, defined by whether they provide sufficient methodological information for a competent implementer or coding agent to construct the intended method without unsupported assumptions. We construct evidence-grounded specifications and their supported resolutions from papers, codebases, issue threads, and reproduction artifacts. We introduce IdeaAMBIG, a benchmark of 660 evidence-grounded instances: 163 real-world gaps from reproducibility reports and GitHub issues, and 497 controlled synthetic gaps injected into codification-ready references. IdeaAMBIG evaluates three capabilities: codification-readiness assessment, defect localization, and clarification action generation. Defect localization receives only the specification, whereas clarification additionally receives the annotated defect. Across 13 LLMs, the best model achieves 9.6% Macro Defect Recovery Rate on real-world instances but 80.6% Macro Clarification Action Success Rate when given the defect. In an oracle study, supplying the gold resolution raises the downstream codification-ready rate from 14% to 98%. Across all evaluated models, defect localization is the main bottleneck, with stronger clarification given the defect.

Fortunate Recall: Ontology-Driven Memory Lifecycle Management for Persistent Coherence in LLMs

Current LLM memory systems treat all personal facts identically, so stores grow without bound while retrieval precision degrades. The core challenge is lifecycle management: which memories should persist, which should be replaced, and at what rate, conditioned on the behavioral type of each fact. Fortunate Recall (FR) is a composable policy layer that classifies personal facts into a 10+1 behavioral ontology and applies category-specific lifecycle policies (differential temporal decay, slot-key supersession, event-time validity, and category-aware retrieval routing) as deterministic functions over LLM-extracted metadata. FR-Bank, our infrastructure-independent implementation, reaches a 76.9% pass rate on LifecycleBench, a new 516-question temporal-disambiguation benchmark, ahead of Mem0, A-MEM, Memory-R1, and MemoryOS (61% to 70.5%), and 75.2% on the full LongMemEval-S under the canonical Wu et al. judge protocol, so lifecycle policies impose no measurable cost on standard retrieval. A pre-registered ablation locates the gains: replacing the typed layer with three generic lifecycle primitives leaves correctness statistically unchanged (-1.7pp, 95% CI [-6.0, +2.7]), so the generic lifecycle metadata carries the correctness advantage, while the behavioral ontology carries calibration, halving downstream confabulation (12.0% vs 24.2%, p<0.001). End-to-end, FR-Bank cuts confabulation from Mem0's 45.1% to 22.4% over answered queries and from 32.2% to 13.0% over all queries while answering more of them correctly (31.2% vs 18.6%); the ranking replicates on the open-weight Kimi K2.5. The decomposition transfers to BEAM, an independently built benchmark: 46.8% correct vs Mem0's 32.9% over 280 questions, with the ontology's benefit concentrated in contradiction resolution and saturating near seven policy clusters. The ontology, benchmark, and code are released.

CoGe-GCD: Reframing Generalized Category Discovery with Compositional Generalization

Generalized Category Discovery (GCD) assigns unlabeled instances, mixed with labeled data, to known or novel categories, requiring human-like compositional reasoning: reusing primitives learned from known classes and deciding when new combinations imply new categories. Existing GCD methods operate on unstructured token features and struggle to extrapolate to novel compositions. We propose CoGe-GCD, which rethinks GCD through compositional generalization with two coupled stages. (i) Compositional Perception structures patch tokens by mapping them to a small vocabulary of primitives and refining token embeddings via competitive token-primitive assignment and information passing, yielding coherent groups for discovery. (ii) Generalizing Induction exploits the induced geometric structure and applies a structure-preserving calibration over spatial relations, maintaining probabilistic semantics while improving extrapolation to unseen primitive combinations. CoGe-GCD is implemented as an inductive-bias module between backbone and projection head, without modifying heads or losses, and can be plugged into diverse GCD frameworks. On standard benchmarks, it consistently improves all-class accuracy, unknown-class number estimation, and geometric quality, with marginal computational overhead. Code is available at https://github.com/lytang63/CoGe-GCD.

The Sample Complexity of Quantum Entanglement Allocation

How many past requests are needed to decide which qubits should share entanglement? We show that the answer depends on the allocation choices created by the queries: a larger memory can require no more data. The memory stores a classical bit and answers requests through a fixed detector that preserves coherence within each measured sector. For independent commuting X- and Z-type Pauli queries, we characterize the full attainable prediction-contrast region and construct encodings that preserve the bit at every nonzero vertex. With sharp reports, a d-qubit path and groups of at most k qubits have minimax excess error after m requests proportional to k^{-1}\{1,{d(k+1)/m}\}, uniformly for $2k

Physics-Informed Deep Learning for False Ventricular Tachycardia Alarm Reduction in the ICU

False ventricular tachycardia (VT) alarms are a leading contributor to alarm fatigue in intensive care units. We propose a deep learning framework combining a 1D SE-ResNet with ICU-realistic data augmentations and a physics-informed auxiliary reconstruction task based on the three-element Windkessel hemodynamic model, implemented as a differentiable forward simulation. By requiring the network's latent representation to produce physiologically plausible arterial pressure waveforms, artifact-driven ECG patterns are penalized while true VT remains coherent across modalities. Evaluated on the VTaC benchmark under a strict real-time protocol (10-second pre-alarm window), our method achieves a 5-point Challenge Score improvement over prior state-of-the-art. Ablation studies confirm that the physics-informed objective is the primary performance driver, providing gains in accuracy, 2x label efficiency, and more localized and clinically meaningful ECG segments.

A Ticket from Marginals to Joints: Coupled-Noise Distillation for One-Step Block Generation in Diffusion Language Models

Autoregressive language models commit one token per forward pass; diffusion language models commit a block of tokens over several steps. We ask whether a block can be committed in a single forward pass. We study this with a noise-conditioned masked denoiser: a data-independent Gaussian noise field is added to the mask embeddings so that, in principle, each sampled field selects one joint mode of the block. The established way of training such a model is to sample several fields per example and let them compete for the data, by winner-take-all or importance weighting. This gives the noise only coarse control: in our experiments, the information it carries grows roughly with the logarithm of the number of competing fields, and one-step outputs remain rarely coherent across the model sizes tested. We propose CONDOR (Coupled-Noise Distillation for One-Step Readout). A noise-conditioned teacher is trained with a random number of masked positions and winner-take-all. A student proposes a one-step block, retains selected tokens, and learns from the block obtained when the teacher refills the other positions in several steps under the same noise field; a noise-free masked-LM term on the ground truth anchors the student. Human evaluation on TinyStories shows a large gain in one-step legality while different noise fields still yield different blocks, at one forward pass per block.

Reflection-aware Generative Novel View Synthesis

We propose Ref-GeNVS, a training-free, reflection-aware method for generative novel view synthesis (NVS) in mirror scenes. Existing multi-view diffusion models often fail to recognize the mirror in the scene and cannot exploit reflected content for scene generation. To fix this issue without additional training, our key idea is to treat a mirror image as two complementary views. From input images, we estimate the mirror plane and reflect camera poses to form virtual views. Based on this virtual view setup, we propose a two-stage generation method consisting of Mirror-gated attention and Reflection injection, which enables reflection-consistent NVS by explicitly leveraging reflection relationships in a multi-view diffusion model. Ref-GeNVS inherits the strong generalizability of the multi-view diffusion backbone, while it does not require finetuning. On synthetic and real scenes including mirrors, Ref-GeNVS outperforms recent generative NVS methods by generating reflection-consistent and contextually coherent novel views, revealing scene structure visible only through mirrors.

Embedded Graph Flows for Categorical Graph Generation

Generating categorical graphs requires choosing node and edge types that form a coherent structure without depending on node order. Many graph generators encode categories as fixed one-hot vectors, which can impose an artificial geometry in which categories are equidistant. We propose Embedded Graph Flows (EGF), a generative model that learns continuous embeddings for node and unordered-edge categories and transports Gaussian noise towards these learnt endpoints using a permutation-equivariant graph transformer. A terminal readout maps the embeddings back to discrete graph categories. Across molecular benchmarks, EGF achieved competitive performance. On QM9, EGF gives the best result on all four reported metrics among the three methods, including a Fréchet ChemNet Distance (FCD) of 0.150, compared with 0.717 for the categorical-diffusion baseline DiGress and 0.812 for the bridge-based baseline GruM. When applied to larger molecules in ZINC250k, EGF retains the lowest maximum mean discrepancy (MMD) using the neighbourhood subgraph pairwise distance kernel (NSPDK), indicating close agreement with the local substructures of the reference molecules. Our code is available at https://github.com/Trusted-System-Lab/EGF.

Self-Supervised Lexical Representation Learning for Fast, Large-Scale Phylogenetic Inference

Computational phylogenetics has become an essential tool in historical linguistics, yet its application at a global scale remains constrained by two factors: the labor-intensive manual annotation of cognacy judgments required for character-based methods and the substantial computational cost of inference on large datasets. This paper introduces a fully self-supervised contrastive learning framework that learns lexical representations directly from raw IPA-transcribed wordlists, without requiring cognacy annotations, alignments, or additional expert input. The model employs a dual contrastive objective: a word-level loss that organizes phonetically similar forms into a coherent space, and an auxiliary language-level loss that encourages the lexical space to reflect broader phonological properties of languages. From the resulting word representations, pairwise language distances are derived and used to infer a global phylogenetic tree of 3,399 language varieties. The inferred tree achieves a generalized quartet distance (GQD) to the Glottolog reference tree competitive with multiple baselines, while requiring only minutes of computation on a standard notebook GPU. Furthermore, the same representations capture diachronic concept stability: variance in pairwise distances across languages yields stability rankings that correlate significantly with established rankings. Ablation studies confirm that both the language-level objective and the use of phonetic feature vectors improved the inferred trees topology with regards to GQD. The framework thus provides a computationally efficient and fully automatic alternative for large-scale phylogenetic inference and offers a unified representation supporting downstream analyses at both the language and concept level.
