arXiv:2604.18450v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Empirical studies of trained models often report a transient regime in which signal is detectable in a finite gradient descent time window before overfitting dominates. We provide an analytically tractable random-matrix model that reproduces this phenomenon for gradient flow in a linear teacher–student setting. In this framework, learning occurs when an isolated eigenvalue separates from a noisy bulk, before eventually disappearing in the overfitting regime. The key ingredient is anisotropy in the input […]

arXiv:2603.22289v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Knowledge Tracing (KT) models students’ evolving knowledge states to predict future performance, serving as a foundation for personalized education. While traditional deep learning models achieve high accuracy, they often lack interpretability. Large Language Models (LLMs) offer strong reasoning capabilities but struggle with limited context windows and hallucinations. Furthermore, existing LLM-based methods typically require expensive fine-tuning, limiting scalability and adaptability to new data. We propose MERIT (Memory-Enhanced Retrieval for Interpretable Knowledge Tracing), a training-free […]

In the modern microservice environment, library dependencies for inter-system communication have become bloated, and conflicts and complications during build and operation have become problems. In particular, in the conventional communication architecture that depends on the MySQL database, the multi-layer dependencies included in texttt{libmysqlclient} restrict the flexibility of system design. In this study, a replication-protocol-compatible patch was applied to the lightweight MySQL client library Trilogy, and a loosely coupled, low-footprint IPC library connecting the control plane and the data […]

arXiv:2603.05645v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: CHERI (Capability Hardware Enhanced RISC Instructions) is a novel hardware designed to address memory safety issues. By replacing traditional pointers with hardware capabilities, it enhances security in modern software systems. A Virtual Machine (VM) is one such system that can benefit from CHERI’s protection, as it may contain latent memory vulnerabilities. However, developing and porting VMs to CHERI is a non-trivial task. There are many subtle pitfalls from the assumptions on the undefined […]

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 […]

The previous post talked about doing perfect shuffles: divide a deck in half, and alternately let one card from each half fall. It matters which half lets a card fall first. If the top half’s bottom card falls first, this is called an in-shuffle. If the bottom half’s bottom card falls first, it’s called an out-shuffle. With an out-shuffle, the top and bottom cards don’t move. Presumably it’s called an out-shuffle because the outside cards remain in place. […]

Introduction Today’s global digital platforms are powered by hundreds of microservices that run behind the frontend that users are exposed to. These services all have to operate at scale in conjunction with each other. Hence, the ultimate user experience is determined by the composite availability of these systems, engineered so that the final service continues to operate even if subsystems experience outages. Talking about availability standards of 5 9s, systems that are available 99.999% of the time are […]
