Recovering Expert Critic-Sourced Network Adjacency between Musical Artists from Acoustic Distributions: A Construct-Validity Approach

Music recommendation relies primarily on two signals: user-item interactions, which fail in the cold-start regime, and intrinsic musical content, available for any recording. We argue that a third, largely untapped signal is both richer and more principled: critical adjacency, the pairwise relation established when an expert critic explicitly links two artists in long-form prose. It encodes deliberate judgments about which artists belong together. Prior work established its internal validity, showing it recovers coherent, interpretable communities and can match collaborative filtering in user-satisfaction simulations, with no user data. What has been missing is external validation: whether this critic-sourced relation is grounded in the music itself versus sociological context. We test it against acoustic content, reframing the question as one of construct validity. Representing artists as empirical distributions over 80 low-level Essentia acoustic descriptors and modeling pairwise proximity via marginal optimal-transport (Wasserstein) distances, we evaluate how far critical adjacency is sonically recoverable under a cold-start, artist-disjoint split. Our ensemble recovers these edges at out-of-sample AUC of 0.767 (95% CI 0.761-0.775). Recoverability rises monotonically with critical consensus, reaching 0.865 on multi-source attested edges. Stratified evaluations align with sociological models of genre: tightly bounded, scene-based genres show higher recoverability than broad industry umbrella terms. Critical discourse is thus a rich source of information for recommendation, decomposing into a reproducible "sonic core" and a "sociological remainder" driven by narrative positioning, subcultural context, and canonical placement. The work offers both a scalable cold-start discovery mechanism and a sociologically grounded approach to MIR and MRS research.

STAR : Sentence Translation Alignment Rate for Document-to-Document Machine Translation

Large Language Models (LLMs) have enabled a shift from sentence-level to document-to-document (Doc2Doc) machine translation, promising improved global coherence. However, document-to-document generation in a single pass frequently suffers from structural misalignment, manifesting as sentence omissions or hallucinations that violate the core requirement of source-target correspondence. To address this, we introduce Sentence Translation Alignment Rate (STAR), an auxiliary metric that explicitly quantifies sentence-level structural fidelity. Building on this, we propose STAR-masked Preference Optimization (StarPO), a framework that ranks document-level hypotheses by structural quality and utilizes a dynamic alignment mask to focus optimization on misaligned segments. Experimental results across news and literary domains demonstrate that StarPO significantly enhances translation quality and structural integrity. Notably, StarPO allows compact models to surpass the performance of massive proprietary systems like GPT-4o while maintaining superior token efficiency.

TransMeme: A Multi-Agent Framework for Cross-Cultural Meme Transcreation

Internet memes are a pervasive form of multimodal online communication; however, such communication often involves users from diverse linguistic and cultural backgrounds. Therefore, adapting memes across cultures and languages is a central challenge for enabling mutual understanding in online communication. Unlike ordinary translation or standalone text rewriting, cross-cultural meme transcreation must jointly preserve communicative intent, adapt culture-dependent meaning for the target audience, and maintain coherence between text and image. In this work, we first provide an explicit task analysis of cross-cultural meme transcreation and identify three core challenges: culture-specific knowledge understanding, intent and tone preservation, and multimodal consistency. Based on this analysis, we propose a multi-agent framework with specialized agents that are coordinated to address these challenges through cultural adaptation, target text rewriting, revision, and conditional visual adjustment. The framework strengthens target text adaptation with coordinated feedback to handle difficult cases that require deeper cultural or visual intervention. We evaluate the framework on bidirectional Chinese-English meme transcreation using both human evaluation and LLM-as-a-Judge. Our method consistently outperforms all baselines across both evaluation settings. In human evaluation, it achieves the best performance on all four dimensions and delivers a 33.1% average improvement over the strongest baseline, while in LLM-as-a-Judge, it attains the highest Top-1 ranking rate (60% versus 26% for the second-best baseline). Further analysis indicates that each component contributes to the performance. Our error analysis suggests that the remaining bottlenecks lie in humor reconstruction and image-text alignment rather than simple cultural knowledge gaps, pointing to future work on humor transfer.

Beyond Local Surprise: Grounded Dialogue as Selective Belief Revision under Referential Uncertainty

When a speaker refers to a scene that the listener cannot directly see, the listener must decide whether to preserve its current understanding or revise it as new utterances arrive. Many language systems treat local mismatch as a cue for updating: divergence from the current understanding encourages adjustment. Yet conversational understanding may be more conservative, interpreting mismatching evidence relative to prior understanding rather than immediately revising it. We introduce a controlled, data-driven framework for turn-by-turn preserve/revise decisions in dialogue, where competing revision policies are learned under otherwise identical conditions. We compare four theory-driven revision strategies, each reflecting a different assumption about when listeners should preserve or revise. Two findings stand out. First, a mismatch-driven policy that updates solely based on local divergence reacts strongly to mismatch but destabilizes grounding and degrades retrieval. Second, an uncertainty-sensitive policy extends mismatch-based updating with accumulated evidence, preserving coherent understanding while maintaining strong retrieval performance. Surprisingly, coherent understanding emerges from a counterintuitive pattern: local mismatch promotes preservation, whereas accumulated uncertainty promotes revision, suggesting that listeners maintain prior understanding despite local mismatch and revise only when uncertainty sufficiently accumulates. This pattern is consistent with conceptual pact theory.

Code World Model: Coding Agent as World Brain

World models aim to simulate how complex environments evolve under actions and events, yet existing video-based world models primarily learn dynamics from visual observations, which reveal outcomes rather than the underlying knowledge, rules, and mechanisms governing world evolution. This makes it difficult to maintain persistent consequences and support coherent, open-ended evolution. We introduce Code World Model, a framework that separates world evolution from visual realization by combining the reasoning and coding capabilities of language models with the generative priors of video models. A coding agent serves as the world brain, reasoning about events and their consequences and generating executable code to maintain persistent world state and perform rule-consistent evolution. To connect executable state with visual generation, we introduce a proxy representation that encodes frame-wise spatiotemporal constraints and is compiled into a proxy video, which conditions a video model to render high-fidelity visual observations. We further develop data pipelines for constructing aligned proxy-observation pairs from gameplay and real-world videos. After fine-tuning on paired gameplay data, MiniMax-H3 follows proxy-based spatiotemporal specifications from simple interactive worlds built by the coding agent while preserving rich visual details and dynamics. These results demonstrate the potential of combining code for persistent world evolution with video models for flexible visual realization, providing a new path toward open-ended world models.

Key Point Analysis Needs Structure Recovery: Task Definition, Dataset Diagnosis, and a Structure-Aware Benchmark

Key Point Analysis (KPA) aims to identify a concise set of key points that summarize a collection of arguments together with their prevalence. We argue that KPA is fundamentally a structured prediction problem that requires recovering semantic groupings, generating representative key points, ensuring coverage, and estimating prevalence. Under this formulation, we show that existing KPA benchmarks suffer from limitations in grouping quality, redundancy, coverage, and argument-key point mappings, causing ceiling violation and selection failure in reference-based evaluation. To support future research on true KPA, we introduce a structure-aware, distribution-sensitive benchmark built via a human-in-the-loop re-annotation. Human and LLM evaluations consistently show that the resulting structures yield more coherent groupings, higher-quality key points, better coverage, and more reliable prevalence estimates than existing annotations. We further release several annotation resources to support research on KPA evaluation, argument-key point matching, explainable KPA, and LLM-as-a-judge methodologies, and outline a research agenda for true KPA.

VINCENT: Validated Interaction Network for Cross-drug Explanation of Therapeutics

Drug synergy prediction estimates whether two drugs produce a stronger joint effect than expected from their individual activities. For drug combination discovery, a single synergy score is often not enough: researchers also need to know which molecular regions jointly drive the prediction. We study motif-pair synergy explanation, which identifies pairs of chemically coherent regions, one from each drug, that jointly contribute to predicted synergy. Existing interpretable synergy models expose atom- or substructure-level signals, but their explanations are built into the predictor architecture, and none validates cross-drug region scores under repeated perturbations or feeds that evidence back to refine the explanation. A reliable motif-pair explanation should instead be chemically coherent, perturbation-stable, and aligned with predictor behavior. We introduce VINCENT (Validated Interaction Network for Cross-drug Explanation of Therapeutics), a post-training framework for a fixed interaction-aware synergy predictor. VINCENT extracts atom-pair evidence from attention and gradient signals, groups atoms into chemically coherent motifs, and validates candidate motif pairs through repeated local perturbations. The validated evidence is fed back to refine motif assignments, yielding explanations that satisfy these three criteria. On a 25-pair literature-annotated subset, VINCENT achieves a mean motif recall of 0.826 (95% CI: 0.78-0.87), compared with 0.49-0.66 for baselines. Across all 71 test pairs, its validated interaction scores yield a TP/TN separation of 3.36. These results show that closed-loop perturbation validation recovers literature-supported molecular regions more accurately than existing alternatives while producing cross-drug interaction scores that better reflect predictor behavior.

FlowMoDL: Model-Based Deep Learning with Conjugate-Gradient Data Consistency for Highly Accelerated 4D Flow MRI Reconstruction

We present FlowMoDL, an unrolled neural network for highly accelerated 4D flow MRI reconstruction that directly optimizes for both anatomical magnitude and phase-derived velocity accuracy. Building on the MoDL framework, FlowMoDL alternates a learned (3+1)D spatiotemporal denoiser with conjugate-gradient data-consistency updates based on the SENSE forward model. A novel dual-pathway conditioning scheme adapts the denoiser features and data-consistency weighting, enabling a single model to handle varying acceleration factors (10to 50). To ensure physiological accuracy, the network is trained using a deep-supervision composite loss that explicitly penalizes velocity magnitude and angular errors, stabilized by a curriculum schedule. We evaluate FlowMoDL on the multi-center CMRx4DFlow dataset against classical and deep-learning baselines (CG-SENSE, MoDL, FlowVN, and FlowMRI-Net). A key advantage of FlowMoDL is its superior gradient step efficiency. When evaluated under an equivalent, limited budget of gradient steps, competing flow-specific networks degrade significantly. In contrast, FlowMoDL robustly converges and strictly outperforms all competitors across all acceleration factors in magnitude SSIM, nRMSE, relative velocity error, and angular error, successfully recovering sharp structural details and temporally coherent velocity fields.

Learning Continuous Regional Temperature Fields with Lead-Time and Resolution Queries

Accurate regional near-surface temperature forecasting is fundamental to short-range weather services and downstream risk assessment. Existing deep learning-based regional forecasters commonly produce a fixed set of future frames on a prescribed grid, limiting their use when forecast products must be evaluated at query-dependent lead times or display resolutions. To overcome these fixed-output constraints, we formulate regional T2M forecasting as query-conditioned continuous spatiotemporal temperature field evaluation and propose the Continuous Spatiotemporal Temperature Forecaster (CSTF), a neural field that turns forecast lead time and output resolution into explicit queries when evaluating 2-m temperature (T2M). Specifically, CSTF first encodes multivariable ERA5 histories into latent meteorological states and then decodes T2M as a coordinate-based field. Accordingly, spatial location, forecast lead time, and output resolution are introduced as queries, enabling standard hourly forecasts, intermediate lead-time diagnostics, and resolution-controllable outputs within a unified field-evaluation framework. Furthermore, to maintain coherence across flexible field queries, we design spatial-gradient, temporal-difference, and scale-consistency objectives that regularize regional thermal structures, lead-wise evolution, and cross-resolution agreement. Experiments on the Southeast China 0-6 h ERA5-Land benchmark demonstrate that CSTF achieves the best aggregate deterministic skill, including a 17.0 percent reduction in Bias, with global-scope diagnostics further illustrating flexible lead-time and resolution-controllable inference.

Drift-Aware Multimodal User Representation Learning via Multi-Scale Temporal Modeling and Sparse Mixture-of-Experts

Understanding user preferences from noisy and temporally evolving social media behaviors is fundamentally challenging due to interest drift, where user preferences shift across time and exhibit both multi-scale temporal patterns and diverse co-existing interests. To address this, we propose DUMoE, a unified framework for drift-aware multimodal user representation learning. Our model consists of (i) a temporal dynamics-aware backbone that captures and integrates static profiles, short-term behavioral signals, and long-term dependencies into a coherent representation, and (ii) a sparse mixture-of-experts (MoE) interest adapter that disentangles multiple latent interests via expert specialization and adaptive routing. Each expert models a distinct interest subspace, while a gating network dynamically selects and aggregates a sparse subset of relevant experts for each user. To enable stable and effective optimization, we further introduce a three-stage training strategy that decouples backbone learning, expert specialization, and gating optimization. Extensive experiments on real-world social media datasets show that DUMoE consistently outperforms state-of-the-art methods on both user interest prediction and interaction prediction tasks.

A Dual-Dimensional LLM Framework for Automated Item Incidental Content Similarity Analysis in Large-Scale Assessments

The rapid expansion of large-scale assessments and the growing adoption of automatic item generation have intensified concerns about incidental content redundancy, where construct-irrelevant elements such as wording or contextual framing become unintentionally repetitive across items. Traditional similarity metrics like BLEU or cosine similarity, often fail to capture the nuanced structural and semantic layers that drive perceived redundancy simultaneously. This study proposes a dual-dimensional framework for Automated Item Similarity Analysis (AISA) powered by Large Language Models (LLMs), operationalizing similarity through Structured Decomposition and Semantic Relatedness. Psychometric validation indicates that LLM-derived metrics align more closely with indicators of construct-irrelevant local dependence and yield more coherent item parameter groupings than traditional text-based measures. The framework is further evaluated through its application in Computerized Adaptive Testing (CAT). Simulations reveal that incorporating LLM-based similarity constraints into item selection improves estimation stability and reduces bias with minimal efficiency trade-offs, outperforming constraints based on conventional metrics. These findings highlight the potential of LLM-powered AISA to support scalable bank curation, content-aware test assembly, and experience-sensitive adaptive testing across diverse assessment contexts.

The Axiomatic Trader: Latent Regularity, Information Budgets, and the Canonical Form of a Quantitative Investment System

Systematic trading rests on one article of faith: that regularities found in the past persist. We state it as a time-invariant mechanism driven by an unobserved latent state, and show that it leaves a researcher five constants to declare --- the recurrence bound Lambda at a block length b, the invariance defect epsilon_0 of the representation it is declared of, the coherence times ell_i of the state's coordinates, the signal ceiling rho and the fraction kappa of it contingent on the regime --- after which the architecture of a correct quantitative investment system is nearly forced.

Photorealistic Novel View Synthesis of Human Faces using Next-Scale Transformers

Photorealistic novel view synthesis of people remains challenging at high spatial resolutions and across multiple target cameras, where preserving identity, fine appearance details, and geometric coherence is critical. We build on the next-scale autoregressive paradigm and adapt it for human-centric view synthesis by enabling higher image resolutions, multi-view outputs and stronger cross-view consistency in a single forward pass. We train on a synthetic dataset of human faces spanning diverse identities and apparel. Contrary to diffusion models, this paradigm does not need 2D pre-training and, thanks to its next-scale architecture, it benefits from lower-resolution, general-purpose pre-trainings, with the full-sized purpose-specific images being used only in the last training stages. This enables our architecture to converge with a smaller amount of purpose-specific training data, allowing us to use a smaller but more realistic training dataset. The resulting model produces sharp and realistic views, with the option to synthesize multiple novel viewpoints simultaneously for improved agreement across views. Empirically, we observe gains in perceptual fidelity and cross-view coherence on human subjects, demonstrating that next-scale autoregression is an effective backbone for scalable, multi-output human view synthesis. We also couple our pipeline with an existing transformer-based model for pixel-aligned 3D gaussian lifting from multi-view facial inputs, resulting in accurate and photorealistic 3D models of human faces.

Memory Augmentation Unlocks Efficient Chain-of-Thought Reasoning

Large language models often rely on Chain-of-Thought (CoT) reasoning to solve complex tasks, but verbose reasoning traces introduce substantial inference overhead. CoT compression shortens generation, yet aggressive compression may disrupt logical coherence and degrade performance. We formalize this trade-off as the Context-Generation Substitution Law, where explicit reasoning context substitutes for part of decode-time generation. Based on this principle, we propose Memory-Augmented Compression, a training-free framework that constructs reusable reasoning memories from historical traces and retrieves them as prefill-side scaffolds. Rather than using raw demonstrations, these memories summarize reusable reasoning patterns, key constraints, and critical operations to compensate for information lost during compression. Experiments show that Memory consistently improves prompt-based Chain-of-Draft (CoD) compression across mathematical reasoning, complex reasoning, and science question answering tasks, yielding accuracy gains of 21.4, 28.0, 29.5, and 6.61 points over CoD on GSM8K, MATH, BBH, and MMLU-Sci, while achieving a 1.14--1.49latency speedup over standard CoT. Memory is also compatible with token-level, reasoning-trace-level, and inference-state compression mechanisms. Further analyzes show that the gains come from relevant reasoning memories rather than simply increasing context length.

Benchmarking Patent Drafting from Inventor-Style Disclosures

While recent large language models (LLMs) have achieved promising results on individual patent drafting tasks, they fundamentally fail to investigate the core challenge of real-world patent drafting: generating a complete and legally coherent patent application directly from early-stage invention materials. Prior work predominantly assumes later-stage, highly structured, or already legalistic inputs. However, real patenting workflows begin with informal, de-legalized disclosures authored by inventors. To bridge the gap, we introduce Dis2Pat, a disclosure-to-patent dataset that reflects realistic patenting workflows by requiring the generation of complete patent applications directly from inventor-style, de-legalized disclosures. Given the inherent difficulty of long-form, legally constrained patent drafting and the strong privacy requirements, we further propose a strong baseline named Patent-MAF. It is a multi-agent framework for locally deployable patent drafting. Benchmark results reveal that current LLMs exhibit limitations in patent drafting, while Patent-MAF provides a strong baseline that consistently outperforms evaluated open-source models and remains competitive with large closed-source models.

Towards Investigating Residual Hearing Loss: Quantification of Fibrosis in a Novel Cochlear OCT Dataset

Objective: Cochlear implants (CIs) are bionic prostheses that restores hearing via electrical stimulation of the auditory nerve. Hybrid CIs, which use electroacoustic stimulation (EAS), combine residual low-frequency acoustic hearing with CI electrical stimulation. Intracochlear fibrosis, which forms in response to the presence of the implant, may impede residual hearing function and gradually reduce the efficacy of EAS. It is therefore a translational objective to study the formation of cochlear fibrosis in rodents, with the goal of reducing fibrotic burden and improving outcomes for CI patients. Methods: We generate and annotate a novel dataset of optical coherence tomography (OCT) images from chronically implanted guinea pigs as part of an ongoing study focused on implant induced fibrosis. Objectively assessing fibrotic burden in this model, with high resolution and repeatability, presents an obvious use case for computer vision methods. Results: We present the results of several state-of-the-art semantic segmentation models and compare their efficacy for identifying cochlear fibrosis and other relevant annotations, using a new library of manually segmented OCT images. Conclusions: We find that the best performance is achieved by using a modified version of the well-known UNET architecture (which we term 2D-OCT-UNET) that operates on the upscaled OCT input resolution. Significance: For the first time, we have successfully applied computer vision techniques to an OCT dataset of implanted cochleae with fibrosis. Using this deep learning model, the cochlear fibrotic burden calculation can be reliably carried out as we verify in our experimental section. The dataset and the project code are available at: https://github.com/juliadietlmeier/CF-OCT-segmentation

Physical-Support Confidence Sets for Highly Coherent Dictionaries

Sparse pursuit after dictionary learning can yield a precise atom support even when its physical interpretation is not justified by the calibration data, especially for highly coherent dictionaries where alternative calibration-compatible dictionaries may assign different physical meanings to the same selected support. We develop resolution-aware physical-support inference that jointly accounts for uncertainty in the learned dictionary and in the representation of a deployment signal. Our cross-dictionary confidence correspondence retains calibration-compatible dictionaries and deployment-compatible sparse representations, then projects the surviving explanations onto physical-support space. For local coherent-atom classes with separation scale s, once the deployment data resolve the coherent-block explanation and its atom support, the minimax physical resolution from N calibration signals satisfies δ_{opt}(N,s)\{s,{1}{{N}s^2}\}, with relative resolution governed by the orientation-information scale Ns^6. Deployment replication improves physical localization only when orientation changes cannot be absorbed by adjusting the active coefficients. For computation, we introduce active endpoint bracketing (AEB), an adaptive finite-bank procedure that evaluates only candidates that can still affect the physical report and otherwise safely coarsens or abstains. Finite-bank experiments, including a four-region synthetic application, show that a point-valued plug-in selector can be physically overprecise, whereas AEB avoids unsupported refinement with fewer candidate evaluations.
