Accurately predicting short-term traffic demand is critical for intelligent transportation systems. While deep learning models achieve strong performance under stationary conditions, their accuracy often degrades significantly when faced with distribution shifts caused by external events or evolving urban dynamics. Frequent model retraining to adapt to such changes incurs prohibitive computational costs, especially for large-scale or foundation models. To address this challenge, we propose FORESEE (Forecasting Online with Residual Smoothing and Ensemble Experts), a lightweight online adaptation framework that […]

arXiv:2603.02240v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We present SuperLocalMemory, a local-first memory system for multi-agent AI that defends against OWASP ASI06 memory poisoning through architectural isolation and Bayesian trust scoring, while personalizing retrieval through adaptive learning-to-rank — all without cloud dependencies or LLM inference calls. As AI agents increasingly rely on persistent memory, cloud-based memory systems create centralized attack surfaces where poisoned memories propagate across sessions and users — a threat demonstrated in documented attacks against production systems. Our […]

We study personalized multi-agent average reward TD learning, in which a collection of agents interacts with different environments and jointly learns their respective value functions. We focus on the setting where there exists a shared linear representation, and the agents’ optimal weights collectively lie in an unknown linear subspace. Inspired by the recent success of personalized federated learning (PFL), we study the convergence of cooperative single-timescale TD learning in which agents iteratively estimate the common subspace and local […]

arXiv:2602.11174v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Pretrained multilingual language models are often assumed to be script-agnostic, yet their tokenizers can impose systematic costs on certain writing systems. We quantify this script tax by comparing two orthographic variants with identical linguistic content. Across mBERT and XLM-R, the higher-fragmentation orthography shows a ~3.4x increase in fertility (6.73-6.85 vs. 2.10-2.35 tokens/word), leading to a 16.5x inference slowdown (0.23 vs. 3.8 sentences/second) on identical hardware. Using bits per character (BPC) to avoid the […]

Artificial intelligence is no longer an “emerging technology.” Instead, it’s a daily reality shaping how we hire, evaluate, recommend, and even discipline. For tech leaders like me, this shift brings more than engineering challenges; it brings ethical ones as well. And the most critical decisions we face in this new era are not about capability but about boundaries. Yes, AI can process vast datasets at blinding speed. It can also outperform humans on specific tasks. However, the core […]

arXiv:2604.02445v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Matrix Profile (MP) methods are an interpretable and scalable family of distance-based methods for time-series anomaly detection, but strong benchmark performance still depends on design choices beyond a vanilla nearest-neighbor profile. This technical report documents an open-source Matrix Profile for Anomaly Detection (MMPAD) submission to TSB-AD, a benchmark that covers both univariate and multivariate time series. The submitted system combines pre-sorted multidimensional aggregation, efficient exclusion-zone-aware k-nearest-neighbor (kNN) retrieval for repeated anomalies, and moving-average […]

arXiv:2604.08628v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Unauthorized disclosure of confidential documents demands robust, low-leakage classification. In real work environments, there is a lot of inflow and outflow of documents. To continuously update knowledge, we propose a methodology for classifying confidential documents using Retrieval Augmented Classification (RAC). To confirm this effectiveness, we compare RAC and supervised fine tuning (FT) on the WikiLeaks US Diplomacy corpus under realistic sequence-length constraints. On balanced data, RAC matches FT. On unbalanced data, RAC is […]

Medical multimodal learning faces significant challenges with missing modalities prevalent in clinical practice. Existing approaches assume equal contribution of modality and random missing patterns, neglecting inherent uncertainty in medical data acquisition. In this regard, we propose the Aleatoric Uncertainty Modeling (AUM) that explicitly quantifies unimodal aleatoric uncertainty to address missing modalities. Specifically, AUM models each unimodal representation as a multivariate Gaussian distribution to capture aleatoric uncertainty and enable principled modality reliability quantification. To adaptively aggregate captured information, we […]
