Large language models (LLMs) have transformed how we interact with AI, but one size doesn’t fit at all. Out-of-the-box LLMs are trained with broad, general knowledge and improved for a wide range of use cases, but they often fall short when it comes to domain-specific tasks, proprietary workflows, or unique business requirements. Enterprise customers increasingly need specialized LLMs that deeply understand their proprietary data, business processes, and domain-specific terminology. Without customization, you’re forced to choose between accepting generic […]

arXiv:2601.10418v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We study tabular reinforcement learning problems with multiple steps of lookahead information. Before acting, the learner observes $ell$ steps of future transition and reward realizations: the exact state the agent would reach and the rewards it would collect under any possible course of action. While it has been shown that such information can drastically boost the value, finding the optimal policy is NP-hard, and it is common to apply one of two tractable […]

arXiv:2603.10044v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Safety benchmarks evaluate language models in isolation, typically using multiple-choice format; production deployments wrap these models in agentic scaffolds that restructure inputs through reasoning traces, critic agents, and delegation pipelines. We report one of the largest controlled studies of scaffold effects on safety (N = 62,808; six frontier models, four deployment configurations), combining pre-registration, assessor blinding, equivalence testing, and specification curve analysis. Map-reduce scaffolding degrades measured safety (NNH = 14), yet two of […]

Modeling real-world systems requires accounting for noise – whether it arises from unpredictable fluctuations in financial markets, irregular rhythms in biological systems, or environmental variability in ecosystems. While the behavior of such systems can often be described by stochastic differential equations, a central challenge is understanding how noise influences the inference of system parameters and dynamics from data. Traditional symbolic regression methods can uncover governing equations but typically ignore uncertainty. Conversely, Gaussian processes provide principled uncertainty quantification but […]

arXiv:2509.19929v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Uncertainty Quantification (UQ) is paramount for inference in engineering. A common inference task is to recover full-field information of physical systems from a small number of noisy observations, a usually highly ill-posed problem. Sharing information from multiple distinct yet related physical systems can alleviate this ill-posedness. Critically, engineering systems often have complicated variable geometries prohibiting the use of standard multi-system Bayesian UQ. In this work, we introduce Geometric Autoencoders for Bayesian Inversion (GABI), […]

Time series analysis is critical for emerging net- work intelligent control and management functions. However, existing statistical-based and shallow machine learning models have shown limited prediction capabilities on multivariate time series. The intricate topological interdependency and complex temporal patterns in network data demand new model approaches. In this paper, based on a systematic multivariate time series model study, we present two deep learning models aiming for learning both temporal patterns and network topological correlations at the same time: […]

arXiv:2604.02392v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Diffusion and flow-based generative models have shown strong potential for image restoration. However, image denoising under unknown and varying noise conditions remains challenging, because the learned vector fields may become inconsistent across different noise levels, leading to degraded restoration quality under mismatch between training and inference. To address this issue, we propose a quantitative flow matching framework for adaptive image denoising. The method first estimates the input noise level from local pixel statistics, […]

arXiv:2503.00307v4 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Part of the success of diffusion models stems from their ability to perform iterative refinement, i.e., repeatedly correcting outputs during generation. However, modern masked discrete diffusion lacks this capability: when a token is generated, it cannot be updated again, even when it introduces an error. Here, we address this limitation by introducing the remasking diffusion model (ReMDM) sampler, a method that can be applied to pretrained masked diffusion models in a principled way […]
