arXiv:2603.25765v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Hard coatings play a critical role in industry, with ceramic materials offering outstanding hardness and thermal stability for applications that demand superior mechanical performance. However, deploying artificial intelligence (AI) for surface roughness classification is often constrained by the need for large labeled datasets and costly high-resolution imaging equipment. In this study, we explore the use of synthetic images, generated with Stable Diffusion XL, as an efficient alternative or supplement to experimentally acquired data […]

arXiv:2603.25764v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: As LLM-based agents are deployed in production systems, understanding their behavioral consistency (whether they produce similar action sequences when given identical tasks) becomes critical for reliability. We study consistency in the context of SWE-bench, a challenging software engineering benchmark requiring complex, multi-step reasoning. Comparing Claude~4.5~Sonnet, GPT-5, and Llama-3.1-70B across 50 runs each (10 tasks $times$ 5 runs), we find that across models, higher consistency aligns with higher accuracy: Claude achieves the lowest variance […]

arXiv:2603.25763v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The Internet of Vehicles (IoV) has become an essential component of smart transportation systems, enabling seamless interaction among vehicles and infrastructure. In recent years, it has played a progressively significant role in enhancing mobility, safety, and transportation efficiency. However, this connectivity introduces severe security vulnerabilities, particularly Denial-of-Service (DoS) and spoofing attacks targeting the Controller Area Network (CAN) bus, which could severely inhibit communication between the critical components of a vehicle, leading to system […]

arXiv:2603.25761v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Optical character recognition (OCR) and document understanding systems increasingly rely on large vision and vision-language models, yet evaluation remains centered on modern, Western, and institutional documents. This emphasis masks system behavior in historical and marginalized archives, where layout, typography, and material degradation shape interpretation. This study examines how OCR and document understanding systems are evaluated, with particular attention to Black historical newspapers. We review OCR and document understanding papers, as well as benchmark […]

arXiv:2603.25758v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Diffusion models have significantly reshaped the field of generative artificial intelligence and are now increasingly explored for their capacity in discriminative representation learning. Diffusion Transformer (DiT) has recently gained attention as a promising alternative to conventional U-Net-based diffusion models, demonstrating a promising avenue for downstream discriminative tasks via generative pre-training. However, its current training efficiency and representational capacity remain largely constrained due to the inadequate timestep searching and insufficient exploitation of DiT-specific feature […]

arXiv:2603.25754v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: In this letter, we address spatially non-stationary near-field channel estimation for extremely large-scale multiple-input multiple-output (XL-MIMO) systems with a hybrid combining architecture. One key challenge in the considered problem lies in that conventional channel estimation algorithms typically struggle to effectively identify and adapt to the partial antenna visibility caused by varying visibility regions (VRs), thereby compromising estimation accuracy. To perform joint VR recognition and channel estimation, we integrate a deep unfolding network (DUN) […]

arXiv:2603.25752v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: In real-world scenarios, audio and video signals are often subject to environmental noise and limited acquisition conditions, resulting in extracted features containing excessive noise. Furthermore, there is an imbalance in data quality and information carrying capacity between different modalities. These two issues together lead to information distortion and weight bias during the fusion phase, impairing overall recognition performance. Most existing methods neglect the impact of noisy modalities and rely on implicit weighting to […]

arXiv:2603.25750v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: As the paradigm of AI shifts from text-based LLMs to Speech Language Models (SLMs), there is a growing demand for full-duplex systems capable of real-time, natural human-computer interaction. However, the development of such models is constrained by the scarcity of high-quality, multi-speaker conversational data, as existing large-scale resources are predominantly single-speaker or limited in volume. Addressing the complex dynamics of natural dialogue, such as overlapping and back-channeling remains a challenge, with standard processing […]

arXiv:2603.25747v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The rapid evolution of Large Multimodal Models (LMMs) has enabled agents to perform complex digital and physical tasks, yet their deployment as autonomous decision-makers introduces substantial unintentional behavioral safety risks. However, the absence of a comprehensive safety benchmark remains a major bottleneck, as existing evaluations rely on low-fidelity environments, simulated APIs, or narrowly scoped tasks. To address this gap, we present BeSafe-Bench (BSB), a benchmark for exposing behavioral safety risks of situated agents […]

Statistical heterogeneity in Federated Learning (FL) often leads to negative transfer, where a single global model fails to serve diverse client distributions. Personalized federated learning (pFL) aims to address this by tailoring models to individual clients. However, under most existing pFL approaches, clients integrate peer client contributions uniformly, which ignores the reality that not all peers are likely to be equally beneficial. Additionally, the potential for personalization at the instance level remains largely unexplored, even though the reliability […]
