arXiv:2603.26778v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Knowledge distillation is typically realized by transferring a teacher model’s knowledge into a student’s parameters through supervised or reinforcement-based optimization. While effective, such approaches require repeated parameter updates and large-scale training data, limiting their applicability…

arXiv:2603.26775v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) adapt to visual tasks via in-context learning (ICL), which relies heavily on demonstration quality. The dominant demonstration selection strategy is unsupervised k-Nearest Neighbor (kNN) search. While simple, this similarity-first approach…

arXiv:2603.26800v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Long-term fluid dynamics forecasting is a critically important problem in science and engineering. While neural operators have emerged as a promising paradigm for modeling systems governed by partial differential equations (PDEs), they often struggle with…
arXiv:2603.28553v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Instructional alignment, the match between intended cognition and enacted activity, is central to effective instruction but hard to operationalize at scale. We examine alignment in cybersecurity simulations using multimodal traces from 23 teams (76 students)…
arXiv:2603.26801v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Predictive systems increasingly span heterogeneous modalities such as graphs, language, and tabular records, but sparsity and efficiency remain modality-specific (graph edge or neighborhood sparsification, Transformer head or layer pruning, and separate tabular feature-selection pipelines). This…
arXiv:2505.11035v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Federated learning (FL) has attracted significant attention for enabling collaborative learning without exposing private data. Among the primary variants of FL, vertical federated learning (VFL) addresses feature-partitioned data held by multiple institutions, each holding complementary…
