arXiv:2602.23529v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Subadditive set functions play a pivotal role in computational economics (especially in combinatorial auctions), combinatorial optimization or artificial intelligence applications such as interpretable machine learning. However, specifying a set function requires assigning values to an exponentially large number of subsets in general, a task that is often resource-intensive in practice, particularly when the values derive from external sources such as retraining of machine learning models. A~simple omission of certain values introduces ambiguity that […]

This paper focuses on energy savings in downlink operation of cell-free massive MIMO (CF mMIMO) networks under dynamic traffic conditions. We propose a multi-agent deep reinforcement learning (MADRL) algorithm that enables each access point (AP) to autonomously control antenna re-configuration and advanced sleep mode (ASM) selection. After the training process, the proposed framework operates in a fully distributed manner, eliminating the need for centralized control and allowing each AP to dynamically adjust to real-time traffic fluctuations. Simulation results […]

This study introduces a deep learning-based framework for forecasting weather-related traffic crash risk using heterogeneous spatiotemporal data. Given the complex, non-linear relationship between crash occurrence and factors such as road characteristics, and traffic conditions, we propose an ensemble of Convolutional Long Short-Term Memory (ConvLSTM) models trained over overlapping spatial grids. This approach captures both spatial dependencies and temporal dynamics while addressing spatial heterogeneity in crash patterns. North Carolina was selected as the study area due to its diverse […]

arXiv:2603.03304v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We present a concise architecture for joint training on sentences and structured data while keeping knowledge and language representations separable. The model treats knowledge graphs and hypergraphs as structured instances with role slots and encodes them into a key-value repository that a language transformer can attend over. Attention is conditioned by journey-based role transport, which unifies edge-labeled KG traversal, hyperedge traversal, and sentence structure. We outline a dual-stream architecture, hierarchical layer groups with […]

I used to treat Test-Driven Development (TDD) as busywork. Write a failing test. Watch it fail. Write code to pass it. Rinse and repeat. It always felt like it slowed me down. Then AI changed everything. Tools like GitHub Copilot can now generate implementation and comprehensive tests in seconds. Suddenly, the mechanical ritual of TDD seemed… optional. But the more I experimented, the more I realized something important: TDD’s real value was never the mechanics—it was the thinking […]

arXiv:2602.16890v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The introduction of generative artificial intelligence applications to the public has led to heated discussions about its potential impacts and risks for K-12 education. One particular challenge has been to decide what students should learn about AI, and how this relates to computational thinking, which has served as an umbrella for promoting and introducing computing education in schools. In this paper, we situate in which ways we should expand computational thinking to include […]

arXiv:2603.03071v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Classical deep networks are effective because depth enables adaptive geometric deformation of data representations. In quantum neural networks (QNNs), however, depth or state reachability alone does not guarantee this feature-learning capability. We study this question in the pure-state setting by viewing encoded data as an embedded manifold in $mathbb{C}P^{2^n-1}$ and analysing infinitesimal unitary actions through Lie-algebra directions. We introduce Classical-to-Lie-algebra (CLA) maps and the criterion of almost Complete Local Selectivity (aCLS), which combines […]

arXiv:2112.06251v4 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We propose a new regression algorithm that learns from a set of input-output pairs. Our algorithm is designed for populations where the relation between the input variables and the output variable exhibits a heterogeneous behavior across the predictor space. The algorithm starts with generating subsets that are concentrated around random points in the input space. This is followed by training a local predictor for each subset. Those predictors are then combined in a […]
