arXiv:2602.15182v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Autodeleveraging (ADL) is a last-resort loss socialization mechanism used by perpetual futures venues when liquidation and insurance buffers are insufficient to restore solvency. Despite the scale of perpetual futures markets, ADL has received limited formal treatment as a sequential control problem. This paper provides a concise formalization of ADL as online learning on a PNL-haircut domain: at each round, the venue selects a solvency budget and a set of profitable trader accounts. The […]

arXiv:2602.15181v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Camera virtualization — an emerging solution to novel view synthesis — holds transformative potential for visual entertainment, live performances, and sports broadcasting by enabling the generation of photorealistic images from novel viewpoints using images from a limited set of calibrated multiple static physical cameras. Despite recent advances, achieving spatially and temporally coherent and photorealistic rendering of dynamic scenes with efficient time-archival capabilities, particularly in fast-paced sports and stage performances, remains challenging for existing […]

arXiv:2602.15173v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The use of large language models either as decision support systems, or in agentic workflows, is rapidly transforming the digital ecosystem. However, the understanding of LLM decision-making under uncertainty remains limited. We initiate a comparative study of LLM risky choices along two dimensions: (1) prospect representation (explicit vs. experience based) and (2) decision rationale (explanation). Our study, which involves 20 frontier and open LLMs, is complemented by a matched human subjects experiment, which […]

arXiv:2602.15172v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The energy and latency of an accelerator running a deep neural network (DNN) depend on how the computation and data movement are scheduled in the accelerator (i.e., mapping). Optimizing mappings is essential to evaluating and designing accelerators. However, the space of mappings is large, and prior works can not guarantee finding optimal mappings because they use heuristics or metaheuristics to narrow down the space. These limitations preclude proper hardware evaluation, since designers can […]

arXiv:2602.15166v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The latency and energy of tensor algebra accelerators depend on how data movement and operations are scheduled (i.e., mapped) onto accelerators, so determining the potential of an accelerator architecture requires both a performance model and a mapper to search for the optimal mapping. A key optimization that the mapper must explore is fusion, meaning holding data on-chip between computation steps, which has been shown to reduce energy and latency by reducing DRAM accesses. […]

arXiv:2602.15164v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Data scientists often need to write programs to process predictions of machine learning models, such as object detections and trajectories in video data. However, writing such queries can be challenging due to the fuzzy nature of real-world data; in particular, they often include real-valued parameters that must be tuned by hand. We propose a novel framework called Quivr that synthesizes trajectory queries matching a given set of examples. To efficiently synthesize parameters, we […]

arXiv:2602.15162v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Mobile robots operating in agroindustrial environments, such as Mediterranean greenhouses, are subject to challenging conditions, including uneven terrain, variable friction, payload changes, and terrain slopes, all of which significantly affect control performance and stability. Despite the increasing adoption of robotic platforms in agriculture, the lack of standardized, reproducible benchmarks impedes fair comparisons and systematic evaluations of control strategies under realistic operating conditions. This paper presents a comprehensive benchmarking framework for evaluating mobile robot […]

arXiv:2602.15161v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Federated learning (FL) enables distributed model training across edge devices while preserving data locality. This decentralized approach has emerged as a promising solution for collaborative learning on sensitive user data, effectively addressing the longstanding privacy concerns inherent in centralized systems. However, the decentralized nature of FL exposes new security vulnerabilities, especially backdoor attacks that threaten model integrity. To investigate this critical concern, this paper presents the Layer Smoothing Attack (LSA), a novel backdoor […]

arXiv:2602.15159v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Learning from electronic health records (EHRs) time series is challenging due to irregular sam- pling, heterogeneous missingness, and the resulting sparsity of observations. Prior self-supervised meth- ods either impute before learning, represent missingness through a dedicated input signal, or optimize solely for imputation, reducing their capacity to efficiently learn representations that support clinical downstream tasks. We propose the Augmented-Intrinsic Dual-Masked Autoencoder (AID-MAE), which learns directly from incomplete time series by applying an intrinsic […]

arXiv:2602.15158v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: This paper presents a novel approach for ontological heterogeneity that draws heavily from Carnapian-Goguenism, as presented by Kutz, Mossakowski and L”ucke (2010). The approach is provisionally designated da Costian-Tarskianism, named after da Costa’s Principle of Tolerance in Mathematics and after Alfred Tarski’s work on the concept of a consequence operator. The approach is based on the machinery of consequence systems, as developed by Carnielli et al. (2008) and Citkin and Muravitsky (2022), and […]
