arXiv:2606.04036v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: On-policy self-distillation, where a language model conditions on privileged context to supervise its own generations, is a promising source of dense supervision for sparse-reward reinforcement learning. Actually, it can be instantiated as an auxiliary full-vocabulary…
Using technology invented at MIT, Cartesian’s system for locating objects could also find uses in manufacturing, logistics, and robotics.
arXiv:2606.04845v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Sequential decision-making problems are often modelled as a Markov decision process (MDP). We focus on the stochastic shortest path (SSP) problem, which is an infinite-horizon undiscounted MDP with absorbing terminal states. We develop a Bayesian…
arXiv:2408.01382v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Originating in game theory, Shapley values are widely used for explaining a machine learning model’s prediction by quantifying the contribution of each feature’s value to the prediction. This requires a scalar prediction as in binary…
arXiv:2605.29076v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: LLMs have advanced text classification, yet existing paradigms face a trade-off: supervised (label only) fine-tuning is scalable but offers limited reasoning on complex text and lacks broader model transparency, while discrete prompt optimization offers human-readable…
arXiv:2606.04613v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Vision-Language Models (VLMs) struggle when applied to medical image-text data, yet the tools available to diagnose this failure remain limited. Existing representation alignment metrics are symmetric, collapsing both modalities into a single score and hiding…
arXiv:2605.24782v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: While Vision Foundation Models (VFMs) excel at predictive tasks on satellite imagery, their performance can arise from visual correlations rather than underlying structural invariants, making even perception-based out-of-distribution accuracy a poor proxy for scientific utility.…
arXiv:2606.04045v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Representation learning is often described as preserving the information in an input that is relevant for prediction. This work asks what relevance means for a fixed supervised decision problem. A representation is defined to be…
