Safin-1: Safety from Within through Memory-Native State Evolution
arXiv:2609.00092v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Long-horizon complex tasks require foundation models to accumulate information, maintain internal states, and adapt over extended interactions. Safety should be an intrinsi…
Local Reference Geometry Residual Augmentation for Imbalanced Time Series Classification
arXiv:2609.00093v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Imbalanced time series classification is often addressed by changing the training distribution, objective, logits, or final threshold. These interventions address important…
Faster Than Flash: Exploiting Attention Sparsity for Efficient Long-Context Decoding
arXiv:2609.00097v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The development of long-context Large Language Models (LLMs) is constrained by the memory bandwidth bottleneck and quadratic complexity of the attention mechanism during de…
Generative artificial intelligence for reliable mechanistic reasoning for corrosion
arXiv:2609.00099v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Corrosion accounts for approximately 4% of global GDP, and reliable prediction is essential for timely mitigation. Machine learning effectively predicts corrosion rates fro…
Different representation learning objectives recover distinct latent structures from the same psychometric data
arXiv:2609.00100v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Psychometric questionnaires contain rich item-level information, yet it remains unclear whether different representation learning objectives recover the same latent organiz…
Good Memory Has ECC: Evaluating the Memory of Vision-Language Models Beyond Accuracy
arXiv:2609.00103v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Memory is widely viewed as an important unsolved problem for LLMs and VLMs, and current benchmarks typically evaluate it by testing accuracy over long text or video. Howeve…
Deploying and Evaluating a Smart-Agriculture Agentic Engine for Full-Season Soybean Farm Operations
arXiv:2609.00106v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: This paper presents FAIRY, a full-stack smart-agriculture agent system developed for and deployed to an operating soybean research farm at Harbin Institute of Technology's …
The Veto Variable: Human Override as a Goal-Independent Cost Term
arXiv:2609.00109v2 Announce Type: new Abstract: A common reassurance in AI safety holds that a system with benign terminal goals will behave accordingly. We argue that this reassurance fails structurally, and we identify…
Qwen-Drive-1.0: An Initial Step towards a Vision-Language Foundation Model for Autonomous Driving
arXiv:2609.00111v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We present Qwen-Drive-1.0, an initial step towards a vision-language foundation model for autonomous driving. Qwen-Drive-1.0 retains the architecture of the pretrained visi…
Flawed in Nature, Perfect through Evolution
arXiv:2609.00129v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The performance of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) models degrades when the problem they were trained on drifts. This is a near-universal feature of …
Recursive Criticality of AI Self-Improvement
arXiv:2609.00137v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: AI is increasingly used in the R\&D process that produces future AI systems. We study the conditions under which this feedback becomes self-amplifying. Our model describes …
Lingua Franca or Probing Artifact? Rethinking Latent Language in Multilingual LLMs
arXiv:2609.00155v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Latent language identification is often used to argue that multilingual language models route computation through language-specific states, such as English pivots. However,…
IMPACT: Attention Is the Interaction Map for Scalable Interaction-Aware World Model Training
arXiv:2609.00161v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: World models have made remarkable progress in action-conditioned future prediction for embodied agents, yet still struggle to model physically plausible interactions. Exist…
Two-Sided State-Space Models for Sequential Recommendation with Non-Random Multimodal Review Feedback
arXiv:2609.00165v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Two-sided digital platforms are inherently dynamic: user preferences shift, item popularity evolves, and reviews both reflect and drive these changes. Yet most sequential r…
Explainable Artificial Intelligence for Industrial Cybersecurity: A Review of Methods, Operational Integration, and Research Challenges
arXiv:2609.00171v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The increasing digitalization of industrial infrastructure and the convergence of information technology (IT) and operational technology (OT) have expanded the cyberattack …
Do General NLP Embeddings Capture Ontological Reasoning?
arXiv:2609.00177v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: General-purpose NLP embedding models perform well on linguistic tasks, but their ability to capture symbolic ontological structure remains unclear. We introduce AVA, a syst…
Asymmetries in Spontaneous and Instructed Deception
arXiv:2609.00180v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language models sometimes deceive users without being instructed to. However, much of the study on deception in models involves instructed deception. We investigated …
