arXiv:2601.07144v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Ensuring fairness in matching algorithms is a key challenge in allocating scarce resources and positions. Focusing on Optimal Transport (OT), we introduce a novel notion of group fairness requiring that the probability of matching two…
arXiv:2606.04145v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Cloud LLM fine-tuning platforms increasingly serve RLHF workloads, where a learned reward model is optimized as a proxy for human quality. As Gao et al. (2023) showed, this proxy diverges from world feedback (downstream eval…
arXiv:2603.12433v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Model stitching, connecting early layers of one model (source) to later layers of another (target) via a light stitch layer, has served as a probe of representational compatibility. Prior work finds that models trained on…
arXiv:2606.04161v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Different predictors often excel on different inputs, so picking the best one per instance promises higher accuracy than committing to a single model. In practice, selectors trained from logged data routinely fail to beat the…
arXiv:2606.03441v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Autonomous vision-based perching of quadrotors on moving inclined platforms is critical for air-ground collaboration but remains challenging due to the limited field of view (FOV). In this paper, we propose PerchRL, a reinforcement learning (RL)…
arXiv:2606.04164v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Data samples used for training often differ from those encountered during fine-tuning and deployment, and while ML models show promise, their performance remains limited when only small annotated datasets are available. Performance often degrades under…
arXiv:2606.04562v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Purpose The WHO’s COVID-19 non-pharmaceutical interventions (e.g., lockdowns, vaccinations) effectively curb transmission but impose heavy economic strains. Existing research often neglects individual behaviors and falsely assumes perfect infection tracking and flawless policy execution, failing to…
arXiv:2603.24747v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: The emergence of large language model agents capable of invoking external tools has created urgent need for formal verification of agent protocols. Two paradigms dominate this space: Schema-Guided Dialogue (SGD), a research framework for zero-shot…
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…
