arXiv:2604.04074v5 Announce Type: replace Abstract: AI is accelerating scientific research, but providing timely and trustworthy feedback remains challenging. Such feedback requires evaluating specific claims against verified evidence, helping researchers and autonomous research systems determine which findings can guide subsequent work. Thorough verification is time-consuming, and reviewers under time pressure may overlook or misjudge critical issues. Existing AI reviewers have yet to fill this gap because they often assess claims without adequately verifying the supporting evidence. We introduce FactReview, a framework that verifies claims in papers to provide more trustworthy feedback. It checks claims against the literature and examines derivations, while also executing the paper's code to test empirical claims. Across 300 papers, FactReview ranks best among all evaluated systems on five of seven metrics, achieving 6.8% false support and 79.2% classification accuracy. In a study of 36 papers, reviewers using FactReview detect 9.4 issues per paper compared with 5.6 independently, while spending 74.1% less time. FactReview thus supports more reliable peer review, with the potential to accelerate research iteration. The code is public at https://github.com/DEFENSE-SEU/FactReview.

arXiv:2603.18712v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: The task of multi-channel time series forecasting is ubiquitous in numerous fields such as finance, supply chain management, and energy planning. It is critical to effectively capture complex dynamic dependencies within and between channels for accurate predictions. However, traditional method paid few attentions on learning the interaction among channels. This paper proposes Linear-Network (Li-Net), a novel architecture designed for multi-channel time series forecasting that captures the linear and non-linear dependencies among channels. Li-Net dynamically compresses representations across sequence and channel dimensions, processes the information through a configurable non-linear module and subsequently reconstructs the forecasts. Moreover, Li-Net integrates a sparse Top-K Softmax attention mechanism within a multi-scale projection framework to address these challenges. A core innovation is its ability to seamlessly incorporate and fuse multi-modal embeddings, guiding the sparse attention process to focus on the most informative time steps and feature channels. Through the experiment results on multiple real-world benchmark datasets demonstrate that Li-Net achieves competitive performance compared to state-of-the-art baseline methods. Furthermore, Li-Net provides a superior balance between prediction accuracy and computational burden, exhibiting significantly lower memory usage and faster inference times. Detailed ablation studies and parameter sensitivity analyses validate the effectiveness of each key component in our proposed architecture.

arXiv:2603.01092v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Scientific discovery is constrained not only by what is true, but by what is cognitively available to researchers. Many directions are coherent in light of the literature yet unlikely to be proposed because no existing community combines the relevant concepts, methods, and intuitions. Modern language models inherit this bias, recombining high-density regions of the literature when prompted for novel ideas. We target the complementary region, the alien space of science: directions that are scientifically plausible but unlikely under the distribution of existing researchers. Our method decomposes papers into conceptual units and clusters them into a vocabulary of idea atoms. A coherence model scores whether atom combinations form viable research directions, while an availability model scores whether any existing author community is positioned to produce them. We rank combinations to maximize coherence while minimizing availability. On 16,068 peer-reviewed LLM papers from NeurIPS, ICLR, ICML, and major NLP venues, the sampler produces more diverse research portfolios than frontier LLM baselines, including batch-prompted variants that see their entire output, while matching or exceeding their per-idea quality under blind human, LLM, and downstream experimental evaluation. In temporal validation, all components use only pre-2025 data. Selecting less than 1% of the candidate space recovers 2025 combinations at 35.9 times chance; weighting unavailability increases recovery of strictly novel combinations to 3.24 times chance. By separating scientific plausibility from community availability, our framework points toward AI ideation that complements rather than merely accelerates human science, expanding exploration into coherent directions the community may overlook.

arXiv:2602.21889v4 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Prognostic predictions from ML models support human decision making in several fields, including high-stakes ones such as healthcare and the judiciary. Yet, we still lack a clear understanding of how decision makers learn from ML-based decision support (ML-DS). In this paper, we introduce a general computational framework, the 2-Step Agent, to capture how a prediction from an ML model can also be used as a source of useful information about the training data and the causal mechanism that generated it. Our framework models (i) how a prediction from an ML model affects the beliefs of a rational Bayesian agent, and (ii) how this change in beliefs affects the estimation of the causal effect, the downstream decision for a new observation, and the subsequent outcome. In addition to the framework itself, we make three contributions. First, for the multivariate linear-Gaussian setting, we derive a tractable solution for the Bayesian inference problem introduced, i.e. one in which the agent infers information about a population from an ML prediction. Second, we experimentally identify conditions under which ML-DS is beneficial compared to unassisted decision making. Third, we show that a single misaligned prior belief of the user can be sufficient for ML-DS to lead to worse downstream outcomes compared to no decision support even when the prognostic model is well-specified and the agent is perfectly rational. Hence, even under ideal conditions, ML-DS can do more harm than good.

arXiv:2602.02133v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Autoregressive language models (ARMs) suffer from the reversal curse: after learning ''$A$ is $B$,'' they often fail on the reverse query ''$B$ is $A$.'' Masked diffusion language models (MDMs) exhibit this failure in a much weaker form, but the underlying reason has remained unclear. A common explanation attributes this mitigation to their any-order masked training objective. However, observing ''$[\mathbf{M}]$ is $B$'' during training teaches recovery of $A$ from $B$ in one positional configuration, and does not by itself explain why the learned evidence should transfer to the reverse prompt ''$B$ is $[\mathbf{M}]$.'' We provide a theoretical analysis showing that this transfer arises from a parameter-level coupling between forward and reverse positional conditionals: shared Transformer parameters store token-pair evidence, while relative positional encodings route attention through queries and keys without changing the value-side evidence being retrieved. In a one-layer MDM, we prove that forward masked training strengthens evidence that is reusable in reverse queries, induces correlated forward--reverse attention routes, and yields a positively aligned shared-storage gradient component that decreases the reverse loss to first order. Controlled one-layer experiments and large-scale LLaDA/Dream experiments verify these signatures and show that they translate into improved reverse prediction.

arXiv:2601.15322v4 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Replaying a financial agent requires specifying the conditions of a rerun, preserving its execution record, and deciding which parts of its behavior to compare. We introduce the Determinism-Faithfulness Assurance Harness (DFAH), a framework and practical protocol for organizing these choices. The framework distinguishes comparisons of final decisions, tool-name sets, and ordered tool names, while treating support from available evidence as a separate evaluation target. We illustrate the framework using 2,957 recorded executions in synthetic compliance-triage and data-operations tasks. One data-operations configuration repeated its recorded decision across all trials on 84% of cases, while its ordered tool-name sequence repeated on 26%. Conversely, some compliance cases retained the same tool sequence while recorded decisions changed. A case-level example shows how repeated labels accompanied different lookups and escalation calls. These observations demonstrate how the comparison level changes the description of repeated behavior. The resulting protocol connects configuration control, preservation of each attempt, comparison of records, and inspection of changed cases. DFAH provides a practical foundation for designing replay experiments and locating execution differences during the development and evaluation of financial agents.

arXiv:2511.19100v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Data sequences, such as time series, traces, and sensor streams, are words over large or infinite data domains. Their properties often depend on comparisons between values at different positions, which finite automata cannot express directly. We study synthesis and verification for Deterministic Register Automata (DRAs) over ordered data sequences. DRAs combine finite control with registers for remembered data values, providing compact symbolic descriptions of quantitative sequence languages. Our technical core is a local-search synthesis procedure and an exact robustness checker for DRAs. We fix the alphabet theory to ordered rationals $(\Q;<,=)$ with rational guard constants and use non-negative affine accumulator costs. For a fixed number of DRA registers, the checker runs in polynomial time; its dependence on that number is exponential. It reduces robustness to coverability and then to a shortest-path problem. Since the search ranges over $\Q^+$, it produces variable-length witnesses and, for RAA-definable alignment costs such as DTW, explores a counterexample space with no a priori length bound. As an application, we use learned DRAs as interpretable surrogates for queried neural sequence classifiers. A probably approximately correct (PAC) validation loop refines rejected candidates, returns genuine non-robustness witnesses for the classifier when found, and accepts a surrogate only with statistical guarantees for fidelity and local stability. We implement the framework in $\textsc{RAExc}$, enabling the synthesis of interpretable automata and the verification of their robustness. We evaluate the approach on benchmark languages and sequentialized MNIST, demonstrating high accuracy while verifying the robustness of the learned automata.

arXiv:2511.14130v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Deploying LLMs for financial information retrieval demands accuracy, cost efficiency, and reproducibility, yet most approaches require expensive fine-tuning. PRISM is a training-free framework that composes three deployable modules (prompt engineering, in-context learning, and a candidate refinement module) with a boundary-condition study of multi-agent coordination for financial document retrieval. On FiQA-2018, stacked reranking and $k$-reciprocal encoding raise Recall@100 from 0.7783 to 0.8326. On FinAgentBench, a Cohere-refined top-50 pool yields a higher observed end-to-end NDCG@5, below this evaluation's minimum detectable effect, while cutting per-query cost by about 35%. Added complexity does not always pay off: $k$-reciprocal encoding stops helping once the upstream stage is already high-recall, and multi-agent coordination is not a default for fine-grained chunk ranking. Matched pairs that hold prompt, model, and exemplars fixed lose 0.0702 and 0.0681 combined NDCG@5 to their single-path controls, and the whole gap sits at the chunk stage. We release an expert-annotated FinAgentBench evaluation set, together with a label-robustness sweep over 16 alternative ground-truth constructions, restoring a reproducible evaluation path after the original evaluator went offline. Without fine-tuning, PRISM placed third on the official FinAgentBench private leaderboard (leaderboard basis, NDCG@5 0.71181), reaches NDCG@10 0.6197 on FiQA-2018, and 98% accuracy on FinanceBench. We report per-query latency, token, and dollar accounting across roughly 40 configurations, present the quality-cost-latency Pareto frontier, and introduce FACET, a transparent SLA-specific scalarization for choosing among non-dominated configurations.

arXiv:2504.07635v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: The integration of Generative Artificial Intelligence (GenAI) within the Internet of Things (IoT) is garnering considerable interest. This growing attention stems from the continuous evolution and widespread adoption they are both having individually, enough to spontaneously reshape numerous sectors, including Healthcare, Manufacturing, and Smart Cities. Hence, their increasing popularity has catalyzed further extensive research for understanding the potential of the duo GenAI-IoT, how they interplay, and to which extent their synergy can innovate the state-of-the-art in their individual scenarios. However, despite the increasing prominence of GenAI for IoT Computing, much of the existing research remains focused on specific, narrowly scoped applications. This fragmented approach highlights the need for a more comprehensive analysis of the potential, challenges, and implications of GenAI integration within the broader IoT ecosystem. This survey exactly aims to address this gap by providing a holistic overview of the opportunities, issues, and considerations arising from the convergence of these mainstream paradigms. Our contribution is realized through a systematic literature review following the PRISMA methodology. A comparison framework is presented, and well-defined research questions are outlined to comprehensively explore the past, present, and future directions of GenAI integration with IoT Computing, offering valuable insights for both experts and newcomers.

arXiv:2610.30128v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Existing sequential recommenders usually allocate a fixed computational budget to every item in a user's interaction history, regardless of the item's contribution to the final prediction. We challenge this de facto design with two diagnostic findings. (1) Non-uniform computational need: items within the same sequence vary drastically in how much computation they require. Most converge after shallow processing while a critical minority only stabilizes at full depth. (2) Suboptimality of fixed allocation: given oracle access to the target item, a non-uniform depth assignment consistently outranks the fixed one, indicating that existing uniform computation both wastes capacity on already-converged items and sacrifices overall recommendation quality. These observations motivate a shift from fixed-depth computation to item-level adaptive reasoning. To this end, we propose LoopRec. LoopRec recursively applies a single weight-shared block and introduces a lightweight gate at each recursion boundary that makes a binary exit-or-continue decision for every item independently. Items whose representations have sufficiently matured exit early, while those requiring deeper reasoning continue to subsequent recursions. This design converts the fixed global depth into a learned, per-item property without auxiliary depth labels, and is readily adaptable to diverse backbone architectures. Extensive experiments on public benchmarks with four backbone families demonstrate that LoopRec consistently outperforms matched fixed-depth counterparts. Further analysis reveals that LoopRec's learned allocation exhibits interpretable patterns aligned with our post-hoc oracle analysis: lower-frequency items and more recent interactions naturally receive deeper computation.
