arXiv:2601.17016v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: With the incredible advancements in Large Language Models (LLMs), many people have started using them to satisfy their information needs. However, utilizing LLMs might be problematic for political issues where disagreement is common and model outputs may reflect training-data biases or deliberate alignment choices. To better characterize such behavior, we assess the stances of nine LLMs on 24 politically sensitive issues using five prompting techniques. We find that models often adopt opposing stances […]

Textual Emotion Classification (TEC) is one of the most difficult NLP tasks. State of the art approaches rely on Large language models (LLMs) and multi-model ensembles. In this study, we challenge the assumption that larger scale or more complex models are necessary for improved performance. In order to improve logical consistency, We introduce CMHL, a novel single-model architecture that explicitly models the logical structure of emotions through three key innovations: (1) multi-task learning that jointly predicts primary emotions, […]

arXiv:2603.03320v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Effective communication often relies on aligning a message with an audience’s narrative and worldview. Narrative shift involves transforming text to reflect a different narrative framework while preserving its original core message–a task we demonstrate is significantly challenging for current Large Language Models (LLMs). To address this, we propose a neurosymbolic approach grounded in social science theory and abductive reasoning. Our method automatically extracts rules to abduce the specific story elements needed to guide […]

arXiv:2306.10987v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Generating accurate extremes from an observational data set is crucial when seeking to estimate risks associated with the occurrence of future extremes which could be larger than those already observed. Applications range from the occurrence of natural disasters to financial crashes. Generative approaches from the machine learning community do not apply to extreme samples without careful adaptation. Besides, asymptotic results from extreme value theory (EVT) give a theoretical framework to model multivariate extreme […]

The world is inherently dynamic, and continual learning aims to enable models to adapt to ever-evolving data streams. While pre-trained models have shown powerful performance in continual learning, they still require finetuning to adapt effectively to downstream tasks. However, prevailing Parameter-Efficient Fine-Tuning (PEFT) methods operate through empirical, black-box optimization at the weight level. These approaches lack explicit control over representation drift, leading to sensitivity to domain shifts and catastrophic forgetting in continual learning scenarios. In this work, we […]

arXiv:2602.22217v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) has established itself as the standard paradigm for grounding Large Language Models (LLMs) in domain-specific, up-to-date data. However, the prevailing architecture for RAG has evolved into a complex, distributed stack requiring cloud-hosted vector databases, heavy deep learning frameworks (e.g., PyTorch, CUDA), and high-latency embedding inference servers. This “infrastructure bloat” creates a significant barrier to entry for edge computing, air-gapped environments, and privacy-constrained applications where data sovereignty is paramount. This paper […]
