arXiv:2604.18972v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We study finite-horizon continuous-time policy evaluation from discrete closed-loop trajectories under time-inhomogeneous dynamics. The target value surface solves a backward parabolic equation, but the Bellman baseline obtained from one-step recursion is only first-order in the grid width. We estimate the time-dependent generator from multi-step transitions using moment-matching coefficients that cancel lower-order truncation terms, and combine the resulting surrogate with backward regression. The main theory gives an end-to-end decomposition into generator misspecification, projection error, […]

arXiv:2604.18820v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Recovering latent structure from count data has received considerable attention in network inference, particularly when one seeks both cross-group interactions and within-group similarity patterns in bipartite networks, which is widely used in ecology research. Such networks are often sparse and inherently imperfect in their detection. Existing models mainly focus on interaction recovery, while the induced similarity graphs are much less studied. Moreover, sparsity is often not controlled, and scale is unbalanced, leading to […]

arXiv:2604.18819v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The integration of Fog Computing with Flying Ad-Hoc Networks (FANETs) offers promising capabilities for decentralized, low-latency intelligence in UAV-based applications. However, the distributed nature, mobility, and resource constraints of FANETs expose them to significant security and privacy challenges, particularly against quantum threats. To address these issues, this work introduces a blockchain-based, AI-enhanced key management framework designed for fog-enabled FANETs. The proposed scheme employs a Post-Quantum Multivariate Identity-Based Signature Scheme (PQ-MISS) and Zero-Knowledge Proofs […]

arXiv:2604.18816v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Principal Component Analysis (PCA) is a fundamental tool for representation learning, but its global linear formulation fails to capture the structure of data supported on curved manifolds. In contrast, manifold learning methods model nonlinearity but often sacrifice the spectral structure and stability of PCA. We propose emph{Geodesic Tangent Space Aggregation PCA (GTSA-PCA)}, a geometric extension of PCA that integrates curvature awareness and geodesic consistency within a unified spectral framework. Our approach replaces the […]

arXiv:2604.18814v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: An algorithm for simulation of switching converters is proposed in the paper. The algorithm is based on simulation of averaged circuit model applying “switching cell” concept, and construction of instantaneous values of the waveforms using quasi steady state and linear ripple approximation. Simulation covers converters operating both in the continuous and the discontinuous conduction mode. Application of the algorithm is demonstrated by simulation results of all three of the basic converters: buck, boost […]

arXiv:2604.18811v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Despite the perceived success of large-scale dataset distillation (DD) methods, recent evidence finds that simple random image baselines perform on-par with state-of-theart DD methods like SRe2L due to the use of soft labels during downstream model training. This is in contrast with the findings in coreset literature, where high-quality coresets consistently outperform random subsets in the hardlabel (HL) setting. To understand this discrepancy, we perform a detailed scalability analysis to examine the role […]

arXiv:2604.18806v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: 3D-IC netlist partitioning is commonly optimized using proxy objectives, while final PPA is treated as a costly evaluation rather than an optimization signal. This proxy-driven paradigm makes it difficult to reliably translate additional PPA evaluations into better PPA outcomes. To bridge this gap, we present DOPP (D-Optimal PPA-driven partitioning selection), an approach that bridges the gap between proxies and true PPA metrics. Across eight 3D-IC designs, our framework improves PPA over Open3DBench (average […]

arXiv:2604.18805v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language model (LLM)-based systems are increasingly deployed to conduct scientific research autonomously, yet whether their reasoning adheres to the epistemic norms that make scientific inquiry self-correcting is poorly understood. Here, we evaluate LLM-based scientific agents across eight domains, spanning workflow execution to hypothesis-driven inquiry, through more than 25,000 agent runs and two complementary lenses: (i) a systematic performance analysis that decomposes the contributions of the base model and the agent scaffold, and […]

arXiv:2604.18804v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Latent Diffusion Models (LDMs) achieve high-fidelity synthesis but suffer from latent space brittleness, causing discontinuous semantic jumps during editing. We introduce a Riemannian framework to diagnose this instability by analyzing the generative Jacobian, decomposing geometry into textit{Local Scaling} (capacity) and textit{Local Complexity} (curvature). Our study uncovers a textbf{“Geometric Decoupling”}: while curvature in normal generation functionally encodes image detail, OOD generation exhibits a functional decoupling where extreme curvature is wasted on unstable semantic boundaries […]
