arXiv:2604.18758v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Low-resource machine translation requires methods that differ from those used for high-resource languages. This paper proposes a novel in-context learning approach to support low-resource machine translation of the Coptic language to English, with syntactic augmentation from Universal Dependencies parses of input sentences. Building on existing work using bilingual dictionaries to support inference for vocabulary items, we add several representations of syntactic analyses to our inputs , specifically exploring the inclusion of raw parser […]

arXiv:2604.18757v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The retina provides a unique, noninvasive window into Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and dementia, capturing early structural changes through morphometric features, while systemic and lifestyle risk factors reflect well-established contributors to disease susceptibility long before clinical symptom onset. However, current retinal analysis frameworks typically model imaging and risk factors separately, limiting their ability to capture joint multimodal patterns critical for early risk prediction. Moreover, existing methods rarely incorporate mechanisms to organize or align patients […]

arXiv:2604.18756v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large Language Models (LLMs) remain vulnerable to optimization-based jailbreak attacks that exploit internal gradient structure. While Sparse Autoencoders (SAEs) are widely used for interpretability, their robustness implications remain underexplored. We present a study of integrating pretrained SAEs into transformer residual streams at inference time, without modifying model weights or blocking gradients. Across four model families (Gemma, LLaMA, Mistral, Qwen) and two strong white-box attacks (GCG, BEAST) plus three black-box benchmarks, SAE-augmented models achieve […]

arXiv:2604.18753v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: An active challenge in developing multimodal machine learning (ML) models for healthcare is handling missing modalities during training and deployment. As clinical datasets are inherently temporal and sparse in terms of modality presence, capturing the underlying predictive signal via diagnostic multimodal ML models while retaining model explainability remains an ongoing challenge. In this work, we address this by re-framing clinical diagnosis as an autoregressive sequence modeling task, utilizing causal decoders from large language […]

arXiv:2604.18751v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Nonlinear machine-learning models are increasingly used to discover causal relationships in time-series data, yet the interpretation of their outputs remains poorly understood. In particular, causal scores produced by regularized neural autoregressive models are often treated as analogues of regression coefficients, leading to misleading claims of statistical significance. In this paper, we argue that causal relevance in nonlinear time-series models should be evaluated through forecast necessity rather than coefficient magnitude, and we present a […]

arXiv:2604.18747v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Relative position embedding has become a standard mechanism for encoding positional information in Transformers. However, existing formulations are typically limited to a fixed geometric space, namely 1D sequences or regular 2D/3D grids, which restricts their applicability to many computer vision tasks that require geometric reasoning across camera views or between 2D and 3D spaces. To address this limitation, we propose URoPE, a universal extension of Rotary Position Embedding (RoPE) to cross-view or cross-dimensional […]

arXiv:2604.18746v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Capacitated Vertex Cover is the hard-capacitated variant of Vertex Cover: given a graph, a capacity for every vertex, and an integer $k$, the task is to select at most $k$ vertices that cover all edges and assign each edge to one of its chosen endpoints so that no chosen vertex receives more incident edges than its capacity. This problem is a classical benchmark in parameterized complexity, as it was among the first natural […]

arXiv:2604.18745v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Automated segmentation of structural defects from visual inspection imagery remains challenging due to the diversity of damage types, extreme class imbalance, and the need for precise boundary delineation. This paper presents DeltaSeg, a U-shaped encoder-decoder architecture with a tiered attention strategy that integrates Squeeze-and-Excitation (SE) channel attention in the encoder, Coordinate Attention at the bottleneck and decoder, and a novel Deep Delta Attention (DDA) mechanism in the skip connections. The encoder uses depthwise […]

arXiv:2604.18744v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Event cameras have recently shown promising capabilities in instantaneous motion estimation due to their robustness to low light and fast motions. However, computing wide-baseline correspondence between two arbitrary views remains a significant challenge, since event appearance changes substantially with motion, and learning-based approaches are constrained by both scalability and limited wide-baseline supervision. We therefore introduce the first event matching model that achieves cross-dataset wide-baseline correspondence in a zero-shot manner: a single model trained […]

arXiv:2604.18741v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Older adults living with multiple chronic conditions (MCC) can considerably benefit from collecting and reflecting on their health data. Many older adults collect their health data using various approaches, such as digital tools or handwritten notebooks. However, in these approaches, the act of collecting data does not itself yield insights; sensemaking and reflection happen only if individuals later review their accumulated records. The daily process of data collection thus offers limited opportunity for […]
