Graph Normalization: Fast Binarizing Dynamics for Differentiable MWIS

arXiv:2605.05330v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We introduce Graph Normalization (GN), a principled dynamical system on graphs that serves as a differentiable approximation engine for the NP-hard Maximum Weight Independent Set (MWIS) problem. MWIS encompasses many combinatorial challenges, including optimal assignment,…

Beyond Steering Vector: Flow-based Activation Steering for Inference-Time Intervention

arXiv:2605.05892v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Activation steering has emerged as a promising alternative for controlling language-model behavior at inference time by modifying intermediate representations while keeping model parameters frozen. However, large-scale evaluations such as AxBench show that existing steering methods…

Feature Starvation as Geometric Instability in Sparse Autoencoders

arXiv:2605.05341v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Sparse autoencoders (SAEs) are used to disentangle the dense, polysemantic internal representations of large language models (LLMs) into interpretable, monosemantic concepts. However, standard $ell_1$-regularized SAEs suffer from feature starvation (dead neurons) and shrinkage bias, often…

Learning Discrete Autoregressive Priors with Wasserstein Gradient Flow

arXiv:2605.06148v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Discrete image tokenizers are commonly trained in two stages: first for reconstruction, and then with a prior model fitted to the frozen token sequences. This decoupling leaves the tokenizer unaware of the model that will…

A Multi-Head Attention Approach for SLA Compliance Monitoring in Data Centers

arXiv:2605.05354v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Service level agreements (SLAs) in data center colocation contracts define precise thresholds for power, temperature, and humidity, with tiered violation penalties expressed as credits against monthly recurring charges. Traditional reactive monitoring detects breaches only after…

Dynamic Controlled Variables Based Dynamic Self-Optimizing Control

arXiv:2605.06469v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Self-optimizing control is a strategy for selecting controlled variables, where the economic objective guides the selection and design of controlled variables, with the expectation that maintaining the controlled variables at constant values can achieve optimization…

COPYCOP: Ownership Verification for Graph Neural Networks

arXiv:2605.05360v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Given two GNNs that output node embeddings, how can we determine if they were trained independently? An adversary could have trained one GNN specifically to mimic the other GNN’s embeddings. To obscure this relationship between…
