Physics-Informed Policy Optimization via Analytic Dynamics Regularization

arXiv:2603.14469v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Reinforcement learning (RL) has achieved strong performance in robotic control; however, state-of-the-art policy learning methods, such as actor-critic methods, still suffer from high sample complexity and often produce physically inconsistent actions. This limitation stems from…

EcoFair-CH-MARL: Scalable Constrained Hierarchical Multi-Agent RL with Real-Time Emission Budgets and Fairness Guarantees

arXiv:2603.14625v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Global decarbonisation targets and tightening market pressures demand maritime logistics solutions that are simultaneously efficient, sustainable, and equitable. We introduce EcoFair-CH-MARL, a constrained hierarchical multi-agent reinforcement learning framework that unifies three innovations: (i) a primal-dual…

ICPRL: Acquiring Physical Intuition from Interactive Control

arXiv:2603.13295v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: VLMs excel at static perception but falter in interactive reasoning in dynamic physical environments, which demands planning and adaptation to dynamic outcomes. Existing physical reasoning methods often depend on abstract symbolic inputs or lack the…

Neural Networks as Local-to-Global Computations

arXiv:2603.14831v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We construct a cellular sheaf from any feedforward ReLU neural network by placing one vertex for each intermediate quantity in the forward pass and encoding each computational step – affine transformation, activation, output – as…

Seeing Beyond: Extrapolative Domain Adaptive Panoramic Segmentation

arXiv:2603.15475v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Cross-domain panoramic semantic segmentation has attracted growing interest as it enables comprehensive 360{deg} scene understanding for real-world applications. However, it remains particularly challenging due to severe geometric Field of View (FoV) distortions and inconsistent open-set…

MSDformer: Multi-scale Discrete Transformer For Time Series Generation

arXiv:2505.14202v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Discrete Token Modeling (DTM), which employs vector quantization techniques, has demonstrated remarkable success in modeling non-natural language modalities, particularly in time series generation. While our prior work SDformer established the first DTM-based framework to achieve…

Power-Law Spectrum of the Random Feature Model

arXiv:2603.14578v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Scaling laws for neural networks, in which the loss decays as a power-law in the number of parameters, data, and compute, depend fundamentally on the spectral structure of the data covariance, with power-law eigenvalue decay…

Bayesian Inference for Missing Physics

arXiv:2603.14918v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Model-based approaches for (bio)process systems often suffer from incomplete knowledge of the underlying physical, chemical, or biological laws. Universal differential equations, which embed neural networks within differential equations, have emerged as powerful tools to learn…

Rationale-Enhanced Decoding for Multi-modal Chain-of-Thought

arXiv:2507.07685v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Large vision-language models (LVLMs) have demonstrated remarkable capabilities by integrating pre-trained vision encoders with large language models (LLMs). Similar to single-modal LLMs, chain-of-thought (CoT) prompting has been adapted for LVLMs to enhance multi-modal reasoning by…
