LLM-Augmented Computational Phenotyping of Long Covid

arXiv:2603.18115v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Phenotypic characterization is essential for understanding heterogeneity in chronic diseases and for guiding personalized interventions. Long COVID, a complex and persistent condition, yet its clinical subphenotypes remain poorly understood. In this work, we propose an…

Engineering Verifiable Modularity in Transformers via Per-Layer Supervision

arXiv:2603.18029v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Transformers resist surgical control. Ablating an attention head identified as critical for capitalization produces minimal behavioral change because distributed redundancy compensates for damage. This Hydra effect renders interpretability illusory: we may identify components through correlation,…

R2-Dreamer: Redundancy-Reduced World Models without Decoders or Augmentation

arXiv:2603.18202v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: A central challenge in image-based Model-Based Reinforcement Learning (MBRL) is to learn representations that distill essential information from irrelevant visual details. While promising, reconstruction-based methods often waste capacity on large task-irrelevant regions. Decoder-free methods instead…

CRAFT: Aligning Diffusion Models with Fine-Tuning Is Easier Than You Think

arXiv:2603.18991v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Aligning Diffusion models has achieved remarkable breakthroughs in generating high-quality, human preference-aligned images. Existing techniques, such as supervised fine-tuning (SFT) and DPO-style preference optimization, have become principled tools for fine-tuning diffusion models. However, SFT relies…

SAVeS: Steering Safety Judgments in Vision-Language Models via Semantic Cues

arXiv:2603.19092v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Vision-language models (VLMs) are increasingly deployed in real-world and embodied settings where safety decisions depend on visual context. However, it remains unclear which visual evidence drives these judgments. We study whether multimodal safety behavior in…
