arXiv:2604.07493v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Epidemiologic studies of infectious diseases often rely on models of contact networks to capture the complex interactions that govern disease spread, and ongoing projects aim to vastly increase the scale at which such data can be collected. However, contact networks may include sensitive information, such as sexual relationships or drug use behavior. Protecting individual privacy while maintaining the scientific usefulness of the data is crucial. We propose a privacy-preserving pipeline for disease spread […]

arXiv:2604.07492v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Message Passing Neural Networks have recently become the most popular approach to graph machine learning tasks; however, their receptive field is limited by the number of message passing layers. To increase the receptive field, Graph Transformers with global attention have been proposed; however, global attention does not take into account the graph topology and thus lacks graph-structure-based inductive biases, which are typically very important for graph machine learning tasks. In this work, we […]

arXiv:2604.07490v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Representation learning for geospatial and spatio-temporal data plays a critical role in enabling general-purpose geospatial intelligence. Recent geospatial foundation models, such as the Population Dynamics Foundation Model (PDFM), encode complex population and mobility dynamics into compact embeddings. However, their integration with Large Language Models (LLMs) remains limited. Existing approaches to LLM integration treat these embeddings as retrieval indices or convert them into textual descriptions for reasoning, introducing redundancy, token inefficiency, and numerical inaccuracies.

arXiv:2604.07487v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language model agents rely on effective model context to obtain task-relevant information for decision-making. Many existing context engineering approaches primarily rely on the context generated from the past experience and retrieval mechanisms that reuse these context. However, retrieved context from past tasks must be adapted by the execution agent to fit new situations, placing additional reasoning burden on the underlying LLM. To address this limitation, we propose a generative context augmentation framework […]

arXiv:2604.07486v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) have emerged as a powerful tool for synthetic data generation. A particularly important use case is producing synthetic replicas of private text, which requires carefully balancing privacy and utility. We propose Realistic and Privacy-Preserving Synthetic Data Generation (RPSG), which leverages privacy-preserving mechanisms, including formal differential privacy (DP); and private seeds, in particular text containing personal information, to generate realistic synthetic data. Comprehensive experiments against state-of-the-art private synthetic data generation […]

arXiv:2604.07484v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Generative reward models (GRMs) have emerged as a promising approach for aligning Large Language Models (LLMs) with human preferences by offering greater representational capacity and flexibility than traditional scalar reward models. However, GRMs face two major challenges: reliance on costly human-annotated data restricts scalability, and self-training approaches often suffer from instability and vulnerability to reward hacking. To address these issues, we propose ConsistRM, a self-training framework that enables effective and stable GRM training […]

arXiv:2604.07482v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Motivated by increasing wireless capacity demands and 6G advancements, the newly defined Frequency Range 3 (FR3, 7.125-24.25 GHz), also known as the upper mid-band, has emerged as a promising spectrum candidate. It offers a balance between the large bandwidth potential of millimeter-wave bands and the favorable propagation characteristics of sub-6 GHz bands. As a result, the upper mid-band presents a strong opportunity to enhance both coverage and capacity, particularly for 6G systems and […]

arXiv:2604.07480v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Reward machines are automaton-like structures that capture the memory required to accomplish a multi-stage task. When combined with reinforcement learning or optimal control methods, they can be used to synthesize robot policies to achieve such tasks. However, specifying a reward machine by hand, including a labeling function capturing high-level features that the decisions are based on, can be a daunting task. This paper deals with the problem of learning reward machines directly from […]

arXiv:2604.07477v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: For applications including facial identification, forensic analysis, photographic improvement, and medical imaging diagnostics, facial image deblurring is an essential chore in computer vision allowing the restoration of high-quality images from blurry inputs. Often based on general picture priors, traditional deblurring techniques find it difficult to capture the particular structural and identity-specific features of human faces. We present SMFD-UNet (Semantic Mask Fusion Deblurring UNet), a new lightweight framework using semantic face masks to drive […]

arXiv:2604.07473v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Online algorithm selection (OAS) aims to adapt the optimization process to changes in the fitness landscape and is expected to outperform any single algorithm from a given portfolio. Although this expectation is supported by numerous empirical studies, there are currently no theoretical results proving that OAS can yield asymptotic speedups (apart from some artificial examples for hyper-heuristics). Moreover, theory-based guidelines for when and how to switch between algorithms are largely missing. In this […]
