arXiv:2404.07593v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Identifying the parameters of a non-linear model that best explain observed data is a core task across scientific fields. When such models rely on complex simulators, evaluating the likelihood is typically intractable, making traditional inference methods such as MCMC inapplicable. Simulation-based inference (SBI) addresses this by training deep generative models to approximate the posterior distribution over parameters using simulated data. In this work, we consider the tall data setting, where multiple independent observations […]

We present a large scale benchmark of modern deep learning architectures for a financial time series prediction and position sizing task, with a primary focus on Sharpe ratio optimization. Evaluating linear models, recurrent networks, transformer based architectures, state space models, and recent sequence representation approaches, we assess out of sample performance on a daily futures dataset spanning commodities, equity indices, bonds, and FX spanning 2010 to 2025. Our evaluation goes beyond average returns and includes statistical significance, downside […]

arXiv:2601.10718v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine hesitancy poses significant public health challenges, particularly in Japan where proactive vaccination recommendations were suspended from 2013 to 2021. The resulting information gap is exacerbated by misinformation on social media, and traditional ways cannot simultaneously address individual queries while monitoring population-level discourse. This study aimed to develop a dual-purpose AI agent system that provides verified HPV vaccine information through a conversational interface while generating analytical reports for medical institutions […]

A cloud operation issue more than a decade old has been observability. To gain access to more complex systems, organizations have spent much on dashboards, monitoring tools, logs, metrics, and alerts. Signals were interpreted and responses taken in the shortest period of time possible to minimize the impact among users in case of failures. This model worked well when the workloads were predictable, as well as when the architecture was small. That is no longer the case.  Modern […]

Learning methods using synthetic data have attracted attention as an effective approach for increasing the diversity of training data while reducing collection costs, thereby improving the robustness of model discrimination. However, many existing methods improve robustness only indirectly through the diversification of training samples and do not explicitly teach the model which regions in the input space truly contribute to discrimination; consequently, the model may learn spurious correlations caused by synthesis biases and artifacts. Motivated by this limitation, […]

arXiv:2602.20202v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The growing reliance on AI-identified digital evidence raises significant concerns about its reliability, particularly as large language models (LLMs) are increasingly integrated into forensic investigations. This paper proposes a structured framework that automates forensic artifact extraction, refines data through LLM-driven analysis, and validates results using a Digital Forensic Knowledge Graph (DFKG). Evaluated on a 13 GB forensic image dataset containing 61 applications, 2,864 databases, and 5,870 tables, the framework ensures artifact traceability and […]

arXiv:2604.15375v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large Language Models (LLMs) have shown significant improvement in RTL code generation. Despite the advances, the generated code is often riddled with common vulnerabilities and weaknesses (CWEs) that can slip by untrained eyes. Attackers can often exploit these weaknesses to fulfill their nefarious motives. Existing RTL bug-detection techniques rely on rule-based checks, formal properties, or coarse-grained structural analysis, which either fail to capture semantic vulnerabilities or lack precise localization. In our work, we […]

arXiv:2602.11301v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Enterprises are rapidly deploying large language models, retrieval augmented generation pipelines, and tool using agents into production, often on shared high performance computing clusters and cloud accelerator platforms that also support defensive analytics. These systems increasingly function not as isolated models but as AI estates: socio technical systems spanning models, agents, data pipelines, security tooling, human workflows, and hyperscale infrastructure. Existing governance and security frameworks, including the NIST AI Risk Management Framework and […]
