arXiv:2601.06186v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Supporting Go/No-Go decisions prior to launch requires assessing real-time telemetry data against redline limits established during the design qualification phase. Family data from ground testing or previous flights is commonly used to detect initiating failure modes and their timing; however, this approach relies heavily on engineering judgment and is more error-prone for new launch vehicles. To address these limitations, we utilize Long-Term Short-Term Memory (LSTM) networks for supervised classification of time-series anomalies. Although, […]

Clinical trials are characterized by high costs, extended timelines, and substantial operational risk, yet reliable prospective methods for predicting trial success before initiation remain limited. Existing artificial intelligence approaches often focus on isolated metrics or specific development stages and frequently rely on variables unavailable at the trial design phase, limiting real-world applicability. We present a hierarchical latent risk-aware machine learning framework for prospective prediction of clinical trial operational success using a curated subset of TrialsBank, a proprietary AI-ready […]

Active learning (AL) aims to reduce annotation costs while maximizing model performance by iteratively selecting valuable instances. While foundation models have made it easier to identify these instances, existing selection strategies still lack robustness across different models, annotation budgets, and datasets. To highlight the potential weaknesses of existing AL strategies and provide a reference point for research, we explore oracle strategies, i.e., strategies that approximate the optimal selection by accessing ground-truth information unavailable in practical AL scenarios. Current […]

arXiv:2604.18786v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Scientific feasibility assessment asks whether a claim is consistent with established knowledge and whether experimental evidence could support or refute it. We frame feasibility assessment as a diagnostic reasoning task in which, given a hypothesis, a model predicts feasible or infeasible and justifies its decision. We evaluate large language models (LLMs) under controlled knowledge conditions (hypothesis-only, with experiments, with outcomes, or both) and probe robustness by progressively removing portions of the experimental and/or […]

arXiv:2601.05329v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Automatic speech editing aims to modify spoken content based on textual instructions, yet traditional cascade systems suffer from complex preprocessing pipelines and a reliance on explicit external temporal alignment. Addressing these limitations, we propose CosyEdit, an end-to-end speech editing model adapted from CosyVoice through task-specific fine-tuning and an optimized inference procedure, which internalizes speech-text alignment while ensuring high consistency between the speech before and after editing. By fine-tuning on only 250 hours of […]

Learning similarity metrics for glyphs and writing systems faces a fundamental challenge: while individual graphemes within invented alphabets can be reliably labeled, the historical relationships between different scripts remain uncertain and contested. We propose a two-stage framework that addresses this epistemological constraint. First, we train an encoder with contrastive loss on labeled invented alphabets, establishing a teacher model with robust discriminative features. Second, we extend to historically attested scripts through teacher-student distillation, where the student learns unsupervised representations […]

arXiv:2601.15297v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We introduce AfriEconQA, a specialized benchmark dataset for African economic analysis grounded in a comprehensive corpus of 236 World Bank reports. The task of AfriEconQA is to answer complex economic queries that require high-precision numerical reasoning and temporal disambiguation from specialized institutional documents. The dataset consists of 8,937 curated QA instances, rigorously filtered from a pool of 10018 synthetic questions to ensure high-quality evidence-answer alignment. Each instance is composed of: (1) a question […]
