The critical slowing down in diffusion models

arXiv:2605.12597v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Computational sampling has been central to the sciences since the mid-20th century. While machine-learning-based approaches have recently enabled major advances, their behavior remains poorly understood, with limited theoretical control over when and why they succeed.…

Self-Refining Video Sampling

arXiv:2601.18577v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Modern video generators still struggle with complex physical dynamics, often falling short of physical realism. Existing approaches address this using external verifiers or additional training on augmented data, which is computationally expensive and still limited…

HeadQ: Model-Visible Distortion and Score-Space Correction for KV-Cache Quantization

arXiv:2605.03562v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: KV-cache quantizers usually optimize storage-space reconstruction, even though attention reads keys through logits and values through attention-weighted readout. We argue that persistent cache error should be measured in model-visible coordinates. For keys, the visible object…

GROW: Aligning GRPO with State-Action Modeling for Open-World VLM Agents

arXiv:2605.20246v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Recently, vision-language model (VLM) agents have shown promising progress in open-world tasks, where successful task completion often requires multiple turns of visual perception and action execution. However, existing methods still rely primarily on Supervised Fine-Tuning…

AiraXiv: An AI-Driven Open-Access Platform for Human and AI Scientists

arXiv:2605.21481v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Recent advances in artificial intelligence (AI) have accelerated the growth of both human-authored and AI-generated research outputs, placing increasing strain on traditional academic publishing systems and challenging the scalability of conference- and journal-centered paradigms amid…

Geometry-Lite: Interpretable Safety Probing via Layer-Wise Margin Geometry

arXiv:2605.20241v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Prompt-level safety probes for large language models use hidden-state representations to separate safe from unsafe prompts, but strong average detection performance does not explain the geometry of this separation. In particular, it remains unclear how…

LEAP: A closed-loop framework for perovskite precursor additive discovery

arXiv:2605.20242v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Efficient discovery of precursor additives is essential for improving the performance of perovskite solar cells, yet the large chemical space makes conventional trial-and-error screening inefficient. We develop LEAP(LLM-driven Exploration via Active Learning for Perovskites), an…
