arXiv:2601.19448v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Deep Neural Networks remain inherently vulnerable to backdoor attacks. Traditional test-time defenses largely operate under the paradigm of internal diagnosis methods like model repairing or input robustness, yet these approaches are often fragile under advanced…
arXiv:2602.08964v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Understanding an agent’s goals helps explain and predict its behaviour, yet there is no established methodology for reliably attributing goals to agentic systems. We propose a framework for evaluating goal-directedness that integrates behavioural evaluation with…
arXiv:2605.30393v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Public numeric benchmarks appear in pretraining, so an evaluation that conditions on a date may be measuring memorized recall rather than out-of-sample skill. We introduce NumLeak, a measurement framework that combines API-boundary probes on production…
arXiv:2508.18730v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Estimating the quality of register transfer level (RTL) designs is crucial in the electronic design automation (EDA) workflow, as it enables instant feedback on key performance metrics like area and delay without the need for…
arXiv:2605.30387v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI) provides non-invasive access to dynamic brain activity by measuring blood oxygen level-dependent (BOLD) signals over time. However, the resource-intensive nature of fMRI acquisition limits the availability of high-fidelity samples required…
arXiv:2605.30388v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: This paper introduces a new systematic framework for detecting anomalies in maritime Automatic Identification System (AIS) datasets. These anomalies include abnormal vessel behaviours related to speed, position jumps, time gaps, and turn angles. Although unsupervised…
arXiv:2605.30385v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The purpose of this article is to provide validation to my deep neural network alternative in the context of LLMs. Very recently, there has been a significant interest by Chinese researchers in a model called…
arXiv:2605.30381v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Deceptive alignment, in which models maintain accurate internal representations while deliberately producing false outputs, remains a central challenge in AI safety. While strategic deception is the primary long-term concern, synthetic dishonesty – induced via direct…
arXiv:2605.30376v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Modern time series architectures face a fundamental trade-off: channel-independent models scale well with increasing data volume but ignore critical inter-channel dependencies, while channel-dependent models are expressive but remain “dimension-bounded”, struggling to generalize across heterogeneous datasets.To…
arXiv:2605.30018v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) frequently achieve impressive scores on standardized benchmarks, yet accuracy alone offers a limited view of their capabilities. Evaluating open-source LLMs through leaderboards faces persistent issues like data contamination, narrow task scope,…
