arXiv:2601.00194v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Recovering the in-air colours of seafloor from satellite imagery is a challenging task due to the exponential attenuation of light with depth in the water column. In this study, we present DichroGAN, a conditional generative adversarial network (cGAN) designed for this purpose. DichroGAN employs a two-steps simultaneous training: first, two generators utilise a hyperspectral image cube to estimate diffuse and specular reflections, thereby obtaining atmospheric scene radiance. Next, a third generator receives as […]

arXiv:2603.20274v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: This chapter discusses the Solomonoff approach to universal prediction. The crucial ingredient in the approach is the notion of computability, and I present the main idea as an attempt to meet two plausible computability desiderata for a universal predictor. This attempt is unsuccessful, which is shown by a generalization of a diagonalization argument due to Putnam. I then critically discuss purported gains of the approach, in particular it providing a foundation for the […]

Climate change is expected to intensify rainfall and other hazards, increasing disruptions in urban transportation systems. Designing effective adaptation strategies is challenging due to the long-term, sequential nature of infrastructure investments, deep uncertainty, and complex cross-sector interactions. We propose a generic decision-support framework that couples an integrated assessment model (IAM) with reinforcement learning (RL) to learn adaptive, multi-decade investment pathways under uncertainty. The framework combines long-term climate projections (e.g., IPCC scenario pathways) with models that map projected extreme-weather […]

While Large Language Model (LLM) agents excel at general tasks, they inherently struggle with continual adaptation due to the frozen weights after deployment. Conventional reinforcement learning (RL) offers a solution but incurs prohibitive computational costs and the risk of catastrophic forgetting. We introduce Just-In-Time Reinforcement Learning (JitRL), a training-free framework that enables test-time policy optimization without any gradient updates. JitRL maintains a dynamic, non-parametric memory of experiences and retrieves relevant trajectories to estimate action advantages on-the-fly. These estimates […]

arXiv:2404.17592v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: As e-commerce expands, delivering real-time personalized recommendations from vast catalogs poses a critical challenge for retail platforms. Maximizing revenue requires careful consideration of both individual customer characteristics and available item features to continuously optimize assortments over time. In this paper, we consider the dynamic assortment problem with dual contexts — user and item features. In high-dimensional scenarios, the quadratic growth of dimensions complicates computation and estimation. To tackle this challenge, we introduce a […]

arXiv:2601.21105v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Natural-language user profiles have recently attracted attention not only for improved interpretability, but also for their potential to make recommender systems more steerable. By enabling direct editing, natural-language profiles allow users to explicitly articulate preferences that may be difficult to infer from past behavior. However, it remains unclear whether current natural-language-based recommendation methods can follow such steering commands. While existing steerability evaluations have shown some success for well-recognized item attributes (e.g., movie genres), […]

arXiv:2603.20335v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The Interest Public Group ARRONAX’s C70XP cyclotron, used for radioisotope production for medical and research applications, relies on complex and costly systems that are prone to failures, leading to operational disruptions. In this context, this study aims to develop a machine learning-based method for early anomaly detection, from sensor measurements over a temporal window, to enhance system performance. One of the most widely recognized methods for anomaly detection is Isolation Forest (IF), known […]

The growing deployment of Internet of Things (IoT) devices in smart cities and industrial environments increases vulnerability to stealthy, multi-stage advanced persistent threats (APTs) that exploit wireless communication. Detection is challenging due to severe class imbalance in network traffic, which limits the effectiveness of traditional deep learning approaches and their lack of explainability in classification decisions. To address these challenges, this paper proposes a neurosymbolic architecture that integrates an optimized BERT model with logic tensor networks (LTN) for […]
