arXiv:2610.35295v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: A fundamental challenge for explainable and accountable language models is revealing how external information influences their answers. This paper examines whether models are self-attributive: that is, whether they indicate when -- and only when -- their responses to questions are influenced by information provided alongside the question. Furthermore, we explore how self-attribution can be improved through counterfactual training, which explicitly teaches models to distinguish between answers that do and do not depend on supplied information. We found that most of the eleven frontier models rarely attribute influential information in their answers, and the rest attribute non-influential information. Training acknowledgment into reasoning does not fix this: the acknowledgment does not reach the final answer. We introduce CREDIT, which directly supervises final-answer self-attribution with counterfactual labels, without the need for human annotation. CREDIT substantially improves attribution in four open models, including two distilled reasoning models, and outperforms reasoning-level fine-tuning and prompting baselines. Among answers that agree with a user's suggestion, CREDIT distinguishes those changed by the suggestion from those the model would have given anyway. Gains transfer partly to unseen information types and prompts containing sources that support conflicting answers.

arXiv:2610.35289v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Robotic missions involving spatially distributed tasks often require jointly selecting rewarding locations and planning feasible motions under limited travel budgets. This paper proposes Reward-Guided RRT*, a new sampling-based framework that constructs a budget-feasible mission through a sequence of locally joint task-selection-and-motion-planning stages, evaluated directly in the continuous state space, without requiring a precomputed task-transition graph. The method incrementally builds a mission using reward-guided RRT* searches, while a return-feasibility procedure ensures that each selected task can be visited without violating the mission budget. Experiments with increasing obstacle complexity and number of tasks show solutions comparable to VNS-PRM* while requiring substantially fewer sampled states. We also extend the framework to Dubins steering and evaluate it in CoppeliaSim with a scaled car-like robotic platform, demonstrating its ability to incorporate vehicle kinematic constraints.

arXiv:2610.35282v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: The proliferation of orbital sensing data and the real-time demands of emerging global services are pushing low Earth orbit (LEO) satellite networks from bent-pipe relays toward intelligent onboard processing. This shift confronts a fundamental tension, where modern artificial intelligence (AI) training paradigms require intensive computation, abundant memory, and stable connectivity, all of which are scarce under the dynamic topologies, intermittent links, and severe size, weight, and power (SWaP) constraints of satellite networks. Addressing this tension demands rethinking AI workflows, from training and inference to the emerging deployment of large language models (LLMs), under a constraint-aware design philosophy. To the best of our knowledge, this paper provides the first survey that jointly covers all three, whereas prior surveys examine these aspects in isolation. We begin by identifying the deployment challenge of satellite intelligence (SI) and deriving design principles for SI. We then examine three advancing paradigms: i) distributed training, where federated learning (FL) and split learning (SL) enable satellite-ground co-training under resource limitations; ii) collaborative inference, which exploits single-satellite, multi-satellite, and satellite-ground architectures to meet real-time service demands; and iii) on-orbit LLM adaptation and serving, which tackles the frontier challenge of deploying LLMs under severe orbital constraints and resource-aware serving. Finally, we identify open challenges and future directions. By bridging the AI and satellite networks, this paper provides a research roadmap for the implementation of space-native AI technologies.

arXiv:2610.35244v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Emotion recognition in artworks remains challenging because affective meaning is often subjective, implicit, and shaped by relationships between visual form and semantic associations. While vision-language models provide strong multimodal representations, direct image-to-emotion prediction may overlook explicit relations among formal, semantic, and affective cues that support emotional interpretation. This paper proposes Visual-Semantic Affect Graphs (VSAG), a graph-based framework that represents artworks through interpretable feature nodes, including color, brushstroke, composition, light-shadow, line quality, and extracted visual entities. The graph learns feature-emotion associations for dominant emotion prediction, with valence-arousal structure modeled through an optional hierarchical auxiliary affect module. We evaluate VSAG and VSAG-TopK against direct VLM inference using Qwen3-VL and InternVL3.5 on EmoArt-5k. Results show that direct VLMs provide useful but modest baselines, while graph-based models improve dominant emotion prediction. In particular, the hierarchical valence-arousal variant of VSAG achieves the best overall performance, improving accuracy, macro-F1, and weighted-F1 over both direct VLM inference and the emotion-only VSAG baseline. Per-class results indicate that graph-based models and VLMs capture partly complementary signals, while valence-arousal structure is most useful when integrated as a coarse-to-fine affect hierarchy rather than as a simple post-hoc correction. These findings suggest that explicit visual-semantic structure can support both prediction and interpretation in artwork emotion recognition.

arXiv:2610.35240v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: India's historical public archives present severe computer vision and document image analysis challenges: decades of parliamentary records survive only as degraded, multi-column scanned pages featuring mixed scripts, complex layouts, and dense visual noise where OCR failure is the primary obstacle to information retrieval. We present an end-to-end framework that couples vision-based layout segmentation and multi-script OCR with an agentic retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) pipeline. Our approach specifically addresses how visual degradation and layout fragmentation propagate into text extraction errors, using an iterative agentic loop to navigate around OCR noise and layout ambiguities before generating answers. Evaluated on the 200,000-page Punjab Vidhan Sabha archive, our system demonstrates robust handling of historical document degradation, outperforming standard text-only baselines.

arXiv:2610.35230v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: The sustainability of the Web has drawn growing attention, as large language model (LLM)-based web services leave a substantial carbon footprint. These services typically run in geo-distributed data centers whose grid carbon intensity varies across regions and over time, so routing each query to a cleaner region or a smaller model can reduce emissions. A conversation, however, is a stateful web session: each turn reuses the key--value (KV) cache of its history, which resides only where earlier turns were served. Serving a turn on another deployment requires recomputing this history, whose carbon cost grows with the conversation and can outweigh the saving of the move. Existing carbon-aware LLM routers treat a conversation's queries as independent and ignore this cost. We present CarbonRouter, an online framework that jointly selects the model, GPU type, and region for each query to minimize carbon emissions. CarbonRouter introduces a cache-aware carbon cost model, which charges history recomputation to every candidate deployment using cached-token counts from the serving backends, and uses a lightweight gate that keeps a session on its cached deployment when it would likely move back at the next turn and rebuild its history again. We evaluate CarbonRouter in trace-driven experiments on two real-world conversation datasets with five LLMs, three GPU types, and four regions, where it achieves the lowest carbon of all policies. CarbonRouter reduces CO$_2$ by 16.1\% on average relative to FairCarbon, a state-of-the-art carbon-aware router with the same action space, while also improving predicted answer quality and estimated latency. Moreover, the saving rises further to 23.1\% for sessions longer than 30 turns.

arXiv:2610.35229v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Effective video agents must learn not only how to answer, but also where to look next. Transferring this capability to smaller models is challenging because each observation serves two purposes: supporting an answer and guiding the search for further evidence. Textual descriptions may capture what is currently visible while omitting cues needed for subsequent acquisition. We introduce Latent Agentic Reasoning for Video Analysis (LARVA), a framework that distills multi-round video agents through jointly learned latent reasoning and visual observations. Rather than communicating through captions, an observer passes compact continuous representations to a reasoner that selects the next acquisition action or produces the final answer. Crucially, action and answer supervision propagate through this interface, training the observer to communicate information useful for downstream decisions. Observation reconstruction and reasoning-distribution alignment provide auxiliary supervision from textual teacher trajectories. Across five video-understanding benchmarks, LARVA achieves strong performance with 4B and 7B backbones. On VideoHolmes, Video-MME, and LVBench, the 7B model outperforms a textual CoT student trained on the same teacher trajectories by 5.1, 2.5, and 3.7 percentage points, respectively. These results highlight the value of jointly learning how agents represent evidence and act on it when distilling video-understanding capabilities.

arXiv:2610.35215v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Web agents reuse skills whose stored code, selected version, and loaded implementation can diverge across tasks and updates. SkillLifeBench links these states to task outcomes in 388 paired scenarios spanning implementation, interface, runtime, composition, and version changes. We evaluate 14 models on two paired decision tracks: 89 runtime tasks and 60 autonomous lifecycle tasks spanning 12 templates derived from introduced cases. Lifecycle tasks allow agents to inspect, select, and reconfigure skills while completing verifiable user requests. Joint success requires task completion without the registered attack goal. GPT-5.6-Sol and Sonnet 4.6 both achieve 82.0% on runtime tasks, but reach 96.7% and 56.7% on lifecycle tasks. Across lifecycle evaluations, challenged task success is 77.5%, while joint success is 65.2%; 103 runs complete the task and the attack goal. Adding execution provenance in a matched recovery study raises utility joint success from 49.35% with logs and metadata to 65.58%. A deterministic execution-consistency rule reaches 64.94% with higher benign utility, while full restoration reaches 69.48%. Lifecycle tasks distinguish models with similar runtime scores, and execution evidence improves recovery.

arXiv:2610.35212v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Standard federated learning (FL) requires persistent device connectivity across multiple communication rounds, making it unsuitable for dynamic environments such as vehicular networks, where devices frequently join and leave. One-shot FL offers a promising alternative by completing training in a single communication round. However, one-shot FL suffers from model solidification and cannot readily adapt to subsequent client dynamics, including new client contributions and the withdrawal of previous contributions. We therefore consider exact model editing, which removes withdrawn contributions through unlearning or incorporates newly contributed ones through incremental learning without retraining from scratch. We identify that efficient editing fundamentally hinges on learning stability. To this end, we propose F-SOSA, the first stable one-shot FL algorithm that enables rapid and exact model editing. F-SOSA leverages sub-sampling of local models with carefully tuned rate for stable aggregation and performs curvature-aware model fusion to preserve utility. We prove that F-SOSA achieves vanishing training error and reasonably small generalization error bounds. Building on this stability, we further develop two single-round editing algorithms: F-SOSA-U for unlearning and F-SOSA-I for incremental learning. They ensure that the edited model, along with all intermediate algorithmic states, is statistically indistinguishable from retraining while incurring only an expected $O(\rho)$ fraction of its cost, where $\rho$ quantifies stability. Experiments demonstrate that our approach matches retraining performance while reducing cumulative time and communication overhead by at least 36% and 22%, respectively, under realistic urban mobility simulations.

arXiv:2610.35211v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Federated zeroth-order optimization (FedZOO) reduces the memory and communication costs of collaborative training for edge intelligence by avoiding backpropagation while communicating only random seeds and scalar coefficients. However, existing methods lack efficient mechanisms for exact unlearning to fully remove the influence of training data when users request deletion. A key insight is that total variation stability of the learning algorithm creates overlap between model distributions before and after data deletion, allowing exact unlearning to reuse computation through coupling. Based on this observation, we jointly design two stable zeroth-order learning algorithms and their corresponding exact-unlearning procedures: \textsc{FedZOO-S} obtains stability through client and mini-batch subsampling, enabling \textsc{FedZOUL-S} to perform efficient unlearning by preserving earlier updates and restarting from the first affected step. \textsc{FedZOO-NS} further combines subsampling with Gaussian noise to increase overlap between update distributions; \textsc{FedZOUL-NS} exploits this overlap through rejection--reflection coupling to reuse affected updates when the coupling is accepted. We prove exact unlearning for both algorithms: the model and saved state have the same joint distribution as retraining with the corresponding learner on retained data. We further establish stability and convergence guarantees for the learning algorithms and derive upper bounds on expected unlearning cost. Experiments demonstrate effective unlearning with competitive model utility and up to $56.1\%$ less cumulative unlearning time than re-optimization. Compared with first-order baselines, our methods reduce communication overhead by up to approximately four orders of magnitude.
