arXiv:2604.16987v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The rapid evolution of video generation technologies poses a significant challenge to media forensics, as conventional detection methods often fail to generalize beyond their training distributions. To address this, we propose DVAR (Debate-based Video Authenticity Reasoning), a training-free framework that reformulates video detection as a structured multi-agent forensic reasoning process. Moving beyond the paradigm of pattern matching, DVAR orchestrates a competition between a Generative Hypothesis Agent and a Natural Mechanism Agent. Through iterative […]

arXiv:2604.16986v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Schema drift in data pipelines is often caught only when a job touches real data. Typed-Dataset layers close part of this gap but require wholesale adoption; table-level enforcement systems close another part but operate at write time against a stored schema. We present a small Scala 3 framework that occupies the seam: it proves producer-to-contract structural compatibility under explicit policies at compile time, derives Spark schemas from the same contract types, and re-checks […]

arXiv:2604.16984v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: This paper presents the report of the URVIS 2026 challenge on adverse-to-extreme panoptic segmentation. As the first challenge of its kind, it attracted 17 registered participants and 47 submissions, with 4 teams reaching the final phase. The challenge is based on the MUSES dataset, a multi-sensor benchmark for panoptic segmentation in adverse-to-extreme weather, including RGB frame camera, LiDAR, radar, and event camera data. Weighted Panoptic Quality (wPQ) is designed and adopted as the […]

arXiv:2604.16982v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Current knowledge graph (KG) construction methods are confirmatory, focusing on recovering known relationships rather than identifying novel or context-dependent nodes. This paper proposes a phenotype-driven and evidence-governed framework that shifts the paradigm toward structured hypothesis discovery and controlled KG expansion. The approach integrates graph neural networks (GNNs) for phenotype discovery, causal inference, probabilistic reasoning and large language models (LLMs) for hypothesis generation and claim extraction within a unified pipeline. The framework prioritizes relationships […]

arXiv:2604.16980v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Background: Large language models (LLMs) are increasingly proposed for diagnostic support, but few evaluations use real-world multimodal inpatient data, particularly in low and middle-income country (LMIC) public hospitals. Methods: We conducted VALID, a retrospective evaluation of 539 multimodal inpatient cases from a tertiary public hospital in South Africa. Inputs included radiology imaging (CT, MRI, CXR) and reports, laboratory results, clinical notes, and vital signs. Expert panels adjudicated 300 cases (balanced and discordant subsets) […]

arXiv:2604.16979v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: High-quality and diverse multimodal data are essential for improving vision-language models (VLMs), yet existing datasets often contain noisy, redundant, and poorly aligned samples. To address these problems, data filtering is commonly used to enhance the efficiency and performance of multimodal learning, but it introduces extra computational cost because filtering models are usually trained on the same data they are meant to screen. To reduce this cost, we study DOSE, which explores whether off-the-shelf […]

arXiv:2604.16976v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Point cloud denoising is a fundamental and crucial challenge in real-world point cloud applications. Existing quantitative evaluation metrics for point cloud denoising methods are implemented in a supervised manner, which requires both the denoised point cloud and the corresponding ground-truth clean point cloud to compute a representative geometric distance. This requirement is highly problematic in real-world scenarios, where ground-truth clean point clouds are often unavailable. In this paper, we propose a simple yet […]

arXiv:2604.16972v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Reinforcement Learning with Verifiable Rewards (RLVR) has emerged as a promising approach to improve the reasoning abilities of Large Language Models (LLMs). Among RLVR algorithms, Group Relative Policy Optimization (GRPO) and its variants have demonstrated strong performance and high training efficiency. However, GRPO-style objectives exhibit two issues on high accuracy prompts including mastered prompts (rollout accuracy =1) and majority-correct prompts (rollout accuracy in (0.5,1)). For mastered prompts, group-relative advantages vanish, yielding no training […]

arXiv:2604.16969v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Unmixing reveals the spatial distribution and spectral details of different constituents, called endmembers, in a hyperspectral image. Because unmixing has limited ground truth requirements, can accommodate mixed pixels, and is closely tied to light propagation, it is a uniquely powerful tool for analyzing hyperspectral images. However, spectral variability inhibits unmixing performance, the proper way to determine the number of endmembers is ambiguous, and the clarity of the endmembers degrades as more are included. […]

arXiv:2604.16968v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Experience-driven self-evolution has emerged as a promising paradigm for improving the autonomy of large language model agents, yet its reliance on self-curated experience introduces underexplored safety risks. In this study, we investigate how experience accumulation and utilization in self-evolving agents affect safety performance across web-based and embodied environments. Notably, experience gathered solely from benign tasks can still compromise safety in high-risk scenarios. Further analysis attributes this degradation to the execution-oriented nature of accumulated […]
