Authority Backdoor: A Certifiable Backdoor Mechanism for Authoring DNNs

arXiv:2512.10600v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Deep Neural Networks (DNNs), as valuable intellectual property, face unauthorized use. Existing protections, such as digital watermarking, are largely passive; they provide only post-hoc ownership verification and cannot actively prevent the illicit use of a…

Murmur2Vec: A Hashing Based Solution For Embedding Generation Of COVID-19 Spike Sequences

arXiv:2512.10147v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Early detection and characterization of coronavirus disease (COVID-19), caused by SARS-CoV-2, remain critical for effective clinical response and public-health planning. The global availability of large-scale viral sequence data presents significant opportunities for computational analysis; however,…

Rethinking Causal Discovery Through the Lens of Exchangeability

arXiv:2512.10152v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Causal discovery methods have traditionally been developed under two distinct regimes: independent and identically distributed (i.i.d.) and timeseries data, each governed by separate modelling assumptions. In this paper, we argue that the i.i.d. setting can…

An Elementary Proof of the Near Optimality of LogSumExp Smoothing

arXiv:2512.10825v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We consider the design of smoothings of the (coordinate-wise) max function in $mathbb{R}^d$ in the infinity norm. The LogSumExp function $f(x)=ln(sum^d_iexp(x_i))$ provides a classical smoothing, differing from the max function in value by at most…

Any4D: Unified Feed-Forward Metric 4D Reconstruction

arXiv:2512.10935v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We present Any4D, a scalable multi-view transformer for metric-scale, dense feed-forward 4D reconstruction. Any4D directly generates per-pixel motion and geometry predictions for N frames, in contrast to prior work that typically focuses on either 2-view…

Assessing Neuromorphic Computing for Fingertip Force Decoding from Electromyography

arXiv:2512.10179v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: High-density surface electromyography (HD-sEMG) provides a noninvasive neural interface for assistive and rehabilitation control, but mapping neural activity to user motor intent remains challenging. We assess a spiking neural network (SNN) as a neuromorphic architecture…

LLM4FS: Leveraging Large Language Models for Feature Selection

arXiv:2503.24157v4 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Recent advances in large language models (LLMs) have provided new opportunities for decision-making, particularly in the task of automated feature selection. In this paper, we first comprehensively evaluate LLM-based feature selection methods, covering the state-of-the-art…
