arXiv:2604.18718v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Agentic security systems increasingly audit live targets with tool-using LLMs, but prior systems fix a single coordination topology, leaving unclear when additional agents help and when they only add cost. We treat topology choice as an empirical systems question. We introduce a controlled benchmark of 20 interactive targets (10 web/API and 10 binary), each exposing one endpoint-reachable ground-truth vulnerability, evaluated in whitebox and blackbox modes. The core study executes 600 runs over five […]

Training reinforcement learning (RL) agents to control fluid dynamics systems is computationally expensive due to the high cost of direct numerical simulations (DNS) of the governing equations. Surrogate models offer a promising alternative by approximating the dynamics at a fraction of the computational cost, but their feasibility as training environments for RL is limited by distribution shifts, as policies induce state distributions not covered by the surrogate training data. In this work, we investigate the use of Linear […]

arXiv:2604.07482v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Motivated by increasing wireless capacity demands and 6G advancements, the newly defined Frequency Range 3 (FR3, 7.125-24.25 GHz), also known as the upper mid-band, has emerged as a promising spectrum candidate. It offers a balance between the large bandwidth potential of millimeter-wave bands and the favorable propagation characteristics of sub-6 GHz bands. As a result, the upper mid-band presents a strong opportunity to enhance both coverage and capacity, particularly for 6G systems and […]

arXiv:2601.05052v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Building efficient and effective generative models for neural network weights has been a research focus of significant interest that faces challenges posed by the high-dimensional weight spaces of modern neural networks and their symmetries. Several prior generative models are limited to generating partial neural network weights, particularly for larger models, such as ResNet and ViT. Those that do generate complete weights struggle with generation speed or require finetuning of the generated models. In […]

A central question in computational neuroscience is whether the learning rule used to train a neural network determines how well its internal representations align with those of the human visual cortex. We present a systematic comparison of four learning rules — backpropagation (BP), feedback alignment (FA), predictive coding (PC), and spike-timing-dependent plasticity (STDP) — applied to identical convolutional architectures and evaluated against human fMRI data from the THINGS-fMRI dataset (720 stimuli, 3 subjects) using Representational Similarity Analysis (RSA).

Graph generation is a fundamental task with broad applications, such as drug discovery. Recently, discrete flow matching-based graph generation, aka, graph flow model (GFM), has emerged due to its superior performance and flexible sampling. However, effectively aligning GFMs with complex human preferences or task-specific objectives remains a significant challenge. In this paper, we propose Graph-GRPO, an online reinforcement learning (RL) framework for training GFMs under verifiable rewards. Our method makes two key contributions: (1) We derive an analytical […]

arXiv:2601.16278v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large Language Models (LLMs) have demonstrated remarkable multilingual capabilities, making them promising tools in both high- and low-resource languages. One particularly valuable use case is generating synthetic samples that can be used to train smaller models in low-resource scenarios where human-labelled data is scarce. In this work, we investigate whether these synthetic data generation capabilities can serve as a form of distillation, producing smaller models that perform on par with or even better […]
