arXiv:2603.25863v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: This paper proposes a method for dynamic hand gesture recognition based on the composition of two models: the MediaPipe Hand Landmarker, responsible for extracting 21 skeletal keypoints of the hand, and a convolutional neural network (CNN) trained to classify gestures from a spatiotemporal matrix representation of dimensions 90 by 21 of those keypoints. The method is applied to the recognition of LIBRAS (Brazilian Sign Language) gestures for device control in a home automation […]

arXiv:2603.25862v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Virtually every sector of society is experiencing a dramatic growth in the volume of unstructured textual data that is generated and published, from news and social media online interactions, through open access scholarly communications and observational data in the form of digital health records and online drug reviews. The volume and variety of data across all this range of domains has created both unprecedented opportunities and pressing challenges for extracting actionable knowledge for […]

arXiv:2603.25861v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Activation-based probes have emerged as a promising approach for detecting deceptively aligned AI systems by identifying internal conflict between true and stated goals. We identify a fundamental blind spot: probes fail on coherent misalignment – models that believe their harmful behavior is virtuous rather than strategically hiding it. We prove that no polynomial-time probe can detect such misalignment with non-trivial accuracy when belief structures reach sufficient complexity (PRF-like triggers). We show the emergence […]

arXiv:2603.25859v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: This paper presents a new spatial-temporal nonlocal traffic flow model formulated to overcome the boundedness limitations inherent in classical local formulations. The model introduces an adaptive kernel that captures both spatial and temporal nonlocal interactions, allowing the velocity at a given point to depend on aggregated downstream traffic conditions over a finite time horizon. This structure provides a more realistic representation of driver anticipation and reaction behavior. In addition to developing the model, […]

arXiv:2603.25857v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The capabilities of large language models (LLMs) have expanded beyond natural language processing to scientific prediction tasks, including molecular property prediction. However, their effectiveness in in-context learning remains ambiguous, particularly given the potential for training data contamination in widely used benchmarks. This paper investigates whether LLMs perform genuine in-context regression on molecular properties or rely primarily on memorized values. Furthermore, we analyze the interplay between pre-trained knowledge and in-context information through a series […]

arXiv:2603.25855v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Genome-Wide Association Studies (GWAS) identify associations between genetic variants and disease; however, moving beyond associations to causal mechanisms is critical for therapeutic target prioritization. The recently proposed Knowledge Graph GWAS (KGWAS) framework addresses this challenge by linking genetic variants to downstream gene-gene interactions via a knowledge graph (KG), thereby improving detection power and providing mechanistic insights. However, the original KGWAS implementation relies on a large general-purpose KG, which can introduce spurious correlations. We […]

arXiv:2603.25853v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: This paper presents a system-level analytical framework for modeling and minimizing phase noise in body-biased cross-coupled LC-tank voltage-controlled oscillators (LC-VCOs). Building upon Impulse Sensitivity Function (ISF) theory, the impulse sensitivity and noise modulation mechanisms associated with both flicker and thermal noise sources are systematically characterized. By modeling the oscillator as a nonlinear dynamical system and incorporating transistor operation across multiple regions, analytical expressions for device-level noise power spectral densities (PSDs) are derived as […]

arXiv:2603.25852v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The rising adoption of generative AI/ML technologies increases the need to support teens in developing AI/ML literacies. Child-computer interaction research argues that construction activities can support young people in understanding these systems and their implications. Recent exploratory studies demonstrate the feasibility of engaging teens in the construction of very small generative language models (LMs). However, it is unclear how constructing such models may foster the development of teens’ understanding of these systems from […]

arXiv:2603.25841v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Current multimodal large language models (MLLMs) cannot effectively utilize eye-gaze information for video understanding, even when gaze cues are supplied via visual overlays or text descriptions. We introduce GazeQwen, a parameter efficient approach that equips an open-source MLLM with gaze awareness through hidden-state modulation. At its core is a compact gaze resampler (~1-5 M trainable parameters) that encodes V-JEPA 2.1 video features together with fixation-derived positional encodings and produces additive residuals injected into […]

arXiv:2603.25840v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: This paper studies system identification for nonlinear state-space models, a problem that arises across many fields yet remains challenging in practice. Focusing on maximum likelihood estimation, we employ Bayesian optimization (BayesOpt) to address this problem by leveraging its derivative-free global search capability enabled by surrogate modeling of the likelihood function. Despite these advantages, standard BayesOpt often suffers from slow convergence, high computational cost, and practical difficulty in attaining global optima under limited computational […]
