arXiv:2602.07477v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Choosing relevant predictors is central to the analysis of biomedical time-to-event data. Classical frequentist inference, however, presumes that the set of covariates is fixed in advance and does not account for data-driven variable selection. As a consequence, naive post-selection inference may be biased and misleading. In right-censored survival settings, these issues may be further exacerbated by the additional uncertainty induced by censoring. We investigate several inference procedures applied after variable selection for the […]

The job market didn’t suddenly become broken. It became AI-native quietly, incrementally, and without updating the rules for the people inside it. We still talk about hiring as if humans are the primary decision-makers. As if a recruiter reads every CV, evaluates context, and makes a judgment call. That story is comforting. It’s also largely false. To be honest, it is so far from reality, that it no longer exists. More Today, software makes the first, and often […]

While virtualization and resource pooling empower cloud networks with structural flexibility and elastic scalability, they inevitably expand the attack surface and challenge cyber resilience. Reinforcement Learning (RL)-based defense strategies have been developed to optimize resource deployment and isolation policies under adversarial conditions, aiming to enhance system resilience by maintaining and restoring network availability. However, existing approaches lack robustness as they require retraining to adapt to dynamic changes in network structure, node scale, attack strategies, and attack intensity. Furthermore, […]

In this tutorial, we explore kvcached, a dynamic KV-cache implementation on top of vLLM, to understand how dynamic KV-cache allocation transforms GPU memory usage for large language models. We begin by setting up the environment and deploying lightweight Qwen2.5 models through an OpenAI-compatible API, ensuring a realistic inference workflow. We then design controlled experiments where we simulate bursty workloads to observe how memory behaves under both elastic and static allocation strategies. Through systematic measurement and visualization, we directly […]

arXiv:2602.13218v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Scaling verifiable training signals remains a key bottleneck for Reinforcement Learning from Verifiable Rewards (RLVR). Logical reasoning is a natural substrate: constraints are formal and answers are programmatically checkable. However, prior synthesis pipelines either depend on expert-written code or operate within fixed templates/skeletons, which limits growth largely to instance-level perturbations. We propose SSLogic, an agentic meta-synthesis framework that scales at the task-family level by iteratively synthesizing and repairing executable Generator–Validator program pairs in […]

arXiv:2605.04051v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: In complex real-world settings, optimization is challenged by the presence of diverse models of differing fidelity. In many optimization problems, a single model is treated as the most accurate representation of the underlying system, while other models are evaluated primarily by their agreement with this presumed most accurate model. Yet in real-world applications, model accuracy is rarely known a priori and assuming a single most accurate model can be misleading. This paper addresses […]

arXiv:2601.12143v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Attention-based neural architectures have become central to state-of-the-art methods in real-time nonlinear control. As these data-driven models continue to be integrated into increasingly safety-critical domains, ensuring statistically grounded and provably safe decision-making becomes essential. This paper introduces a novel reactive control framework for gap-based navigation using the Attentive Neural Process (AttNP) and a physics-informed extension, the PI-AttNP. Both models are evaluated in a simulated F1TENTH-style Ackermann steering racecar environment, chosen as a fast-paced […]

Multi-agent LLM systems enable advanced reasoning and tool use via role specialization, yet reliable reinforcement learning (RL) post-training for such systems remains difficult. In this work, we theoretically pinpoint a key reason for training instability when extending group-based RL to multi-agent LLM systems. We show that under GRPO-style optimization, a global normalization baseline may deviate from diverse agents’ reward distributions, which ultimately leads to gradient-norm instability. Based on this finding, we propose Dr. MAS, a simple and stable […]

Quiz design is a tedious process that teachers undertake to evaluate the acquisition of knowledge by students. Our goal in this paper is to automate quiz composition from a set of multiple choice questions (MCQs). We formalize a generic sequential decision-making problem with the goal of training an agent to compose a quiz that meets the desired topic coverage and difficulty levels. We investigate DQN, SARSA and A2C/A3C, three reinforcement learning solutions to solve our problem. We run […]

arXiv:2601.15352v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Loop vulnerabilities are one major risky construct in software development. They can easily lead to infinite loops or executions, exhaust resources, or introduce logical errors that degrade performance and compromise security. The problem are often undetected by traditional static analyzers because such tools rely on syntactic patterns, which makes them struggle to detect semantic flaws. Consequently, Large Language Models (LLMs) offer new potential for vulnerability detection because of their ability to understand code […]
