We introduce Graph Concept Bottleneck (GCB) as a new paradigm for self-explainable text-attributed graph learning. GCB maps graphs into a subspace, concept bottleneck, where each concept is a meaningful phrase, and predictions are made based on the activation of these concepts. Unlike existing interpretable graph learning methods that primarily rely on subgraphs as explanations, the concept bottleneck provides a new form of interpretation. To refine the concept space, we apply the information bottleneck principle to focus on the […]

arXiv:2604.08577v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large Language Models (LLMs) tend to respond correctly to prompts that align to the data they were trained and fine-tuned on. Yet, small shifts in wording, format, or language can trigger surprisingly large failures, especially on multi-step reasoning problems. To address this problem, we propose a Distributionally Robust Token Optimization (DRTO) approach, which combines token-level Reinforcement Learning from Human Feedback (RLHF) with Distributionally Robust Optimization (DRO). DRTO bounds worst case token-wise rewards by […]

arXiv:2603.19840v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: A major limitation of clustering approaches is their lack of explainability: methods rarely provide insight into which features drive the grouping of similar observations. To address this limitation, we propose an ensemble-based clustering framework that integrates bagging and feature dropout to generate feature importance scores, in analogy with feature importance mechanisms in supervised random forests. By leveraging multiple bootstrap resampling schemes and aggregating the resulting partitions, the method improves stability and robustness of […]

arXiv:2601.09725v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Punctuation plays a critical role in resolving semantic and structural ambiguity in written language. Machine Translation (MT) systems are now widely applied across diverse domains and languages, including many low-resource settings. In this work, we focus on Marathi, a low- to middle-resource language. We introduce Vir=am, the first diagnostic benchmark for assessing punctuation robustness in English-to-Marathi machine translation, consisting of 54 manually curated, punctuation-ambiguous instances. We evaluate two primary strategies for enhancing reliability: […]

arXiv:2603.03411v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Observational causal discovery is only identifiable up to the Markov equivalence class. While interventions can reduce this ambiguity, in practice interventions are often soft with multiple unknown targets. In many realistic scenarios, only a single intervention regime is observed. We propose a scalable causal discovery model for paired observational and interventional settings with shared underlying causal structure and unknown soft interventions. The model aggregates subset-level PDAGs and applies contrastive cross-regime orientation rules to […]

arXiv:2603.28947v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The paper that follows describes a numerical algorithm to solve the parabolic-parabolic Keller–Segel system characterized by singular sensitivity and signal absorption in such a manner that the numerical approximations converge towards a generalized solution on two-dimensional polygonal domains as the time and space discretization parameters tend to zero. The algorithm employs an algebraic manipulation finite element method for space, while time remains continuous, based on introducing a stabilized term. This term is constructed […]

Hello everyone, I wanted to share a project I am working on for a hackathon. It’s a reinforcement learning environment where an AI agent acts as a power grid operator. I’ve tried to keep physics and maths as real as possible. Github repo link : https://github.com/krishnagoyal099/Opengrid_env Live link : https://huggingface.co/spaces/K446/Opengrid I would really like to get your feedback on the physics modeling and reward structure, and also if anyone manages to solve the “hard” task! I am willing […]

Traditional machine learning depends on high-precision arithmetic and near-ideal hardware assumptions, which is increasingly challenged by variability in aggressively scaled semiconductor devices. Compute-in-memory (CIM) architectures alleviate data-movement bottlenecks and improve energy efficiency yet introduce nonlinear distortions and reliability concerns. We address these issues with a hardware-aware optimization framework based on Hyperdimensional Computing (HDC), systematically compensating for non-ideal similarity computations in CIM. Our approach formulates encoding as an optimization problem, minimizing the Frobenius norm between an ideal kernel and […]

arXiv:2603.24793v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Controlling video and audio generation requires diverse modalities, from depth and pose to camera trajectories and audio transformations, yet existing approaches either train a single monolithic model for a fixed set of controls or introduce costly architectural changes for each new modality. We introduce AVControl, a lightweight, extendable framework built on LTX-2, a joint audio-visual foundation model, where each control modality is trained as a separate LoRA on a parallel canvas that provides […]

arXiv:2602.04029v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Relational Foundation Models (RFMs) facilitate data-driven decision-making by learning from complex multi-table databases. However, the diverse relational databases needed to train such models are rarely public due to privacy constraints. While there are methods to generate synthetic tabular data of arbitrary size, incorporating schema structure and primary–foreign key connectivity for multi-table generation remains challenging. Here we introduce PluRel, a framework to synthesize multi-tabular relational databases from scratch. In a step-by-step fashion, PluRel models […]
