arXiv:2604.18767v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Recent disruptions at major maritime chokepoints have exposed the structural fragility of liner shipping networks. Existing indicators measure connectivity, but none quantify its structural vulnerability from a supply-side perspective. We propose the Maritime Connectivity Vulnerability Index (MCVI), capturing three dimensions mapped to distinct UNCTAD sources: low overall connectivity (LSCI), weak bilateral integration (LSBCI), and port infrastructure concentration (PLSCI). The index covers 185 economies over 2006-2025 using pooled fractional rank normalization and equal-weight aggregation […]

arXiv:2604.18766v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: In this article, the hierarchy of LFIs L$_n^k$, Logics of Controlled Consistency (LCC), is introduced. Inspired by da Costa’s original C$_n$ systems, this hierarchy can represent different degrees of paraconsistent commitment and different related notions of consistency, inconsistency, and negation associated with each two-dimensional level of these logics. In one dimension, the logics become increasingly more paraconsistent by allowing the consistency operator to behave inconsistently up to a fixed iteration. In another dimension, […]

arXiv:2604.18765v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Fault detection and diagnosis are critical for the optimal and safe operation of industrial processes. The correlations among sensors often display non-Euclidean structures where graph neural networks (GNNs) are widely used therein. However, for large-scale systems, local, global, and dynamic relations extensively exist among sensors, and traditional GNNs often overlook such complex and multi-level structures for various problems including the fault diagnosis. To address this issue, we propose a structure-aware multi-level temporal graph […]

arXiv:2604.18764v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The rapid growth of large language models (LLMs) and AI workloads has pushed monolithic silicon to its reticle and economic limits, accelerating the adoption of 2.5D/3D chiplet systems. However, these systems increase design complexity by requiring co-design across multiple levels of the computing stack, including application, architecture, chip, and package. The resulting design space is highly combinatorial, with trade-offs among latency, energy, area, and cost. To address this challenge, we propose CHICO-Agent, an […]

arXiv:2604.18762v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Wastewater surveillance (WWS) has emerged as a valuable tool for public health surveillance, particularly since the COVID-19 pandemic. Its long-term utility is constrained, however, by fragmented data systems, inconsistent metadata practices, and poor interoperability. The Public Health and Environmental Surveillance Open Data Model (PHES-ODM) was developed as an open, collaborative framework to standardize WWS data and support transparent, ethical data use aligned with FAIR principles. Adopted by the Public Health Agency of Canada […]

arXiv:2604.18761v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: This paper examines Web3 ecosystems not merely as markets for digital assets, but as networked social spaces where economic transactions give rise to enduring social ties, shared narratives, and collective identities. Leveraging large-scale data mining of fused on-chain blockchain transactions and off-chain social media activity, we analyze over one hundred NFT collections to uncover how different forms of participation structure community formation in decentralized environments. Using network analysis, we identify distinct ecosystem roles, […]

arXiv:2604.18759v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Class imbalance is a widespread challenge in NLP tasks, significantly hindering robust performance across diverse domains and applications. We introduce Hardness-Aware Meta-Resample (HAMR), a unified framework that adaptively addresses both class imbalance and data difficulty. HAMR employs bi-level optimizations to dynamically estimate instance-level weights that prioritize genuinely challenging samples and minority classes, while a neighborhood-aware resampling mechanism amplifies training focus on hard examples and their semantically similar neighbors. We validate HAMR on six […]

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 […]
