Revisiting Face Recognition for Monozygotic Twins: The Celeb Twins Test Set
arXiv:2609.01141v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Past literature on face recognition for monozygotic (("identical") twins points to facial marks and mirror asymmetry as possible directions for improved accuracy of twins r…
On the Gram matrix of standard inner products of asymmetrically-weighted Hermite functions
arXiv:2609.01144v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Let A denote the infinite Gram matrix associated with the standard L2 inner product of asymmetrically-weighted (AW) Hermite functions. We derive an explicit representation …
StainPresetNet: Stain Preset Network for Fast Multi-to-Multi Stain Normalization
arXiv:2609.01146v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Stain normalization reduces color variations caused by variations in staining protocols and imaging conditions, thereby enhancing computer-aided diagnostic system performan…
On the Design Fundamentals of Pixel Text Representation Learning
arXiv:2609.01147v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Text-rich visual inputs require models that can read, retrieve, and compress language directly in pixel space, yet existing pixel-text encoders struggle with fixed resoluti…
Dotting the Eye: An Intent-Driven Image Retouching Agent for Visual Focus Enhancement
arXiv:2609.01148v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Image retouching is commonly formulated as enhancing overall visual quality through color adjustment, but in practice, it also serves to emphasize visual focus by guiding v…
Subword Segmental BabyLMs: Learning to Tokenise for Sample-Efficient Pretraining
arXiv:2609.01151v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: In the standard LM training pipeline, subword tokenisation is applied as a preprocessing step. Subword segmental language modelling is an alternative paradigm in which toke…
Superposed Latent Autoencoder
arXiv:2609.01158v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Autoencoders typically meet tight latent-memory budgets by making each latent representation smaller, sacrificing representational capacity. We ask a different question: ca…
CopyShield: A Cross-Level Benchmark of Copyright Defenses in LLMs
arXiv:2609.01161v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language models can reproduce memorized text verbatim, yet copyright defenses are usually evaluated under incompatible protocols. We introduce CopyShield, a controlle…
Classic AI Scaffolding for LLM Social Agents
arXiv:2609.01167v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language models can produce locally plausible social turns, but fluent next-turn generation is not enough for social simulation. Human encounters such as restaurant l…
Jailbreaking Text-to-Image Models Through Cracks: Navigating Heterogeneous Safety Filters via Multi-Agent Debate
arXiv:2609.01168v2 Announce Type: new Abstract: Text-to-image (T2I) models remain vulnerable to jailbreak attacks that elicit Not-Safe-For-Work (NSFW) content, despite increasingly being guarded by heterogeneous, multi-l…
Pre-carved Niches: The Formation Dynamics of Modular Task Partitions in Early LLM Training
arXiv:2609.01170v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language models exhibit a modular internal organization that mirrors well-studied functional networks of the human brain, but how this organization forms during train…
Johnny Still Receives Spam SMS: Assessing the Robustness of SMS Spam Detection
arXiv:2609.01171v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: SMS spam detection systems often achieve high accuracy in controlled environments but struggle against adversarial attacks and increasingly sophisticated spam tactics in re…
Monocular Depth Estimation from a Single Image: Progress and Opportunities
arXiv:2609.01172v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Monocular depth estimation has long stood as a fundamental challenge in computer vision, enabling a wide range of applications including 3D reconstruction, robotics, autono…
A SoK for SoCs: Reading the TI Leaves on AI for Cyber Threat Intelligence Generation and Sharing
arXiv:2609.01174v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Cyber Threat Intelligence (CTI) is essential for defending mission-critical infrastructure, yet the process of transforming raw attack evidence into shareable CTI remains f…
Don't You Know, Pump it Up! Investigating Cryptocurrency Manipulation in Telegram-Driven Activity
arXiv:2609.01176v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Telegram plays a pivotal role in cryptocurrency communication and has been repeatedly associated with coordinated schemes, such as pump-and-dump manipulation. However, exis…
A Novel Space-Time Coding Architecture for Rydberg Atomic Quantum Receiver-Based Systems
arXiv:2609.01180v2 Announce Type: new Abstract: Rydberg atomic quantum receivers (RAQRs) offer high sensitivity and wide tunability, but their magnitude-based readout yields a nonlinear model incompatible with convention…
Quantum LDPC and High-Rate CSS Codes from Fair-Density Parity-Check Codes
arXiv:2609.01181v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We construct quantum LDPC (qLDPC) and high-rate CSS codes from our recently introduced classical fair-density parity-check (FDPC) codes. To this end, we introduce a structu…
LLMPEDIA: Browsing, Verifying, and Comparing the Parametric Encyclopedic Knowledge of LLMs
arXiv:2609.01182v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Flagship language models appear saturated on benchmarks like MMLU (Hendrycks et al., 2021), scoring above 90% - yet benchmarks test only what the experimenter thought to as…
