arXiv:2602.08374v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We study the Schr”odinger bridge problem when the endpoint distributions are available only through samples. Classical computational approaches estimate Schr”odinger potentials via Sinkhorn iterations on empirical measures and then construct a time-inhomogeneous drift by differentiating a kernel-smoothed dual solution. In contrast, we propose a learning-theoretic route: we rewrite the Schr”odinger system in terms of a single positive transformed potential that satisfies a nonlinear fixed-point equation and estimate this potential by empirical risk minimization […]

arXiv:2601.08893v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We introduce Spectral Generative Flow Models (SGFMs), a physics-inspired alternative to transformer-based large language models. Instead of representing text or video as sequences of discrete tokens processed by attention, SGFMs treat generation as the evolution of a continuous field governed by constrained stochastic dynamics in a multiscale wavelet basis. This formulation replaces global attention with local operators, spectral projections, and Navier–Stokes-like transport, yielding a generative mechanism grounded in continuity, geometry, and physical structure.

Latent space models are widely used for analyzing high-dimensional discrete data matrices, such as patient-feature matrices in electronic health records (EHRs), by capturing complex dependence structures through low-dimensional embeddings. However, estimation becomes challenging in the imbalanced regime, where one matrix dimension is much larger than the other. In EHR applications, cohort sizes are often limited by disease prevalence or data availability, whereas the feature space remains extremely large due to the breadth of medical coding system. Motivated by […]

arXiv:2603.24835v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Long-trajectory video generation is a crucial yet challenging task for world modeling primarily due to the limited scalability of existing video diffusion models (VDMs). Autoregressive models, while offering infinite rollout, suffer from visual drift and poor controllability. To address these issues, we propose DCARL, a novel divide-and-conquer, autoregressive framework that effectively combines the structural stability of the divide-and-conquer scheme with the high-fidelity generation of VDMs. Our approach first employs a dedicated Keyframe Generator […]

arXiv:2602.09130v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Model compression is increasingly essential for deploying large language models (LLMs), yet existing evaluations are limited in method coverage and focus primarily on knowledge-centric benchmarks. Thus, we introduce UniComp, a unified evaluation framework for comparing pruning, quantization, and knowledge distillation. UniComp evaluates compressed models along three dimensions: performance, reliability, and efficiency, using a diverse set of capability- and safety-oriented benchmarks together with a hardware-aware efficiency analysis. Through extensive evaluation of six compression techniques […]

In this tutorial, we implement an advanced agentic AI system using the CAMEL framework, orchestrating multiple specialized agents to collaboratively solve a complex task. We design a structured multi-agent pipeline consisting of a planner, researcher, writer, critic, and rewriter, each with clearly defined responsibilities and schema-constrained outputs. We integrate tool usage, self-consistency sampling, structured validation with Pydantic, and iterative critique-driven refinement to build a robust, research-backed technical brief generator. Through this process, we demonstrate how modern agent architectures […]

arXiv:2604.08588v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Effective automation hinges on deciding when to act and when to escalate. We model this as a decision under uncertainty: an LLM forms a prediction, estimates its probability of being correct, and compares the expected costs of acting and escalating. Using this framework across five domains of recorded human decisions-demand forecasting, content recommendation, content moderation, loan approval, and autonomous driving-and across multiple model families, we find marked differences in the implicit thresholds models […]

arXiv:2602.13242v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: As artificial intelligence (AI) becomes increasingly integrated into daily life, higher education must move beyond code-centric instruction to foster holistic AI literacy. We present a novel pedagogical approach that integrates embodied, unplugged activities into a university-level Introduction to AI course. Inspired by the effectiveness of CS Unplugged in K-12 education, our physical, collaborative activities gave students a first-person perspective on AI decision-making. Through interactive games modeling Search Algorithms, Markov Decision Processes, Q-learning, and […]
