From e0c9108164639aef780feb9ec3dc7b840f70ee86 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jeremy Manning Date: Wed, 6 May 2026 15:38:37 -0400 Subject: [PATCH 01/16] spec-005: librarian sub-package + agent + prompt v1.0.0 + SS API key support (US1, FR-001/010, #107) MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Phase 2 substrate for the librarian agent — single canonical literature-search-and-citation-verification implementation that will replace three duplicates (lit_search + reference_validator's primary-source check + citation_resolver Stage-1) per Constitution Principle I. New sub-package src/llmxive/librarian/ (6 modules): - search.py — Semantic Scholar Graph API + arXiv API clients with rate-limiting (token bucket: 2/sec replenish, 5 burst for SS; 3-sec inter-call sleep for arXiv). Q1. - verify.py — canonical 3-check verification helper (URL resolves + title-token-overlap >=0.7 + summary-grounded >=0.5). Replaces duplicates in lit_search, reference_validator, and citation_resolver. - pdf_sample.py — >=10% PDF sample audit (Q2). Random sample; pypdf text extraction; graceful paywall/corrupt-pdf handling. - cache.py — sha256-keyed disk cache at state/librarian-cache/.json (FR-011). TTLs: 30d arxiv / 7d http_head / 90d doi_bib. Cache invalidation on prompt-version bump. - expand.py — multi-step expansion (Q3): LLM brainstorm of 10-20 alt terms ranked by relevance + iterate until target_n verified accumulated OR list exhausted (cap 20). - search_trail.py — idempotent ## Search trail subsection writer for caller's idea/.md (FR-005, F1 fix from /speckit-analyze). New agent class src/llmxive/agents/librarian.py: - LibrarianAgent.invoke() — full pipeline orchestration (cache -> search -> verify -> maybe expand -> PDF sample -> cache write -> write search trail). Tool-style; doesn't advance project state. - LibrarianResult dataclass + to_dict() per contracts/librarian-json-output.md. Registry entry in agents/registry.yaml: librarian, prompt v1.0.0, qwen.qwen3.5-122b default, 600s wall-clock budget per Q4. Prompt at agents/prompts/librarian.md v1.0.0: expansion-brainstorm prompt section. Numbered-list output format; 10-20 ranked alternatives. Credentials support: src/llmxive/credentials.py refactored to merge keys instead of overwriting; new save_semantic_scholar_key() + load_semantic_scholar_key() functions plus SEMANTIC_SCHOLAR_KEY_NAME constant. Backward-compatible with all existing Dartmouth-key callers; verified by 7 new tests at tests/phase2/test_credentials_semantic_scholar.py. pyproject.toml: pypdf>=4 added (the only new dep) for the >=10% PDF sample audit. spec.md/plan.md/research.md/tasks.md updated to reference the SS API key (Decision 6 / FR-001 / T001+T001a). Substrate quirk documented in research.md: free unauthenticated SS tier returns 429 on the first search call, requiring authenticated key. Tests: 30/30 pass (15 spec-003 + 8 spec-004 + 7 new spec-005). No regression. US1 unit-test modules (T013-T017) blocked on SS API key approval; they will land in a follow-up commit once the key arrives.

Per Q1 the librarian uses Semantic Scholar API + arXiv API only; per Q2 it does adaptive verification (abstract for bulk + ≥10% PDF-sample audit); per Q3 it returns a partial list with `outcome: "exhausted"` when expansion can't reach 5 verified citations; per Q4 its `wall_clock_budget_seconds` is 600. + +When the initial search returns fewer than 5 verified citations, the librarian triggers a multi-step expanded search: LLM-brainstorms 10-20 alternative phrasings ranked by relevance, iterates over them performing ≥10 distinct queries, and accumulates verified citations until ≥5 are found OR the term list is exhausted. The agent updates the calling project's `idea/<slug>.md` with a `## Search trail` subsection documenting expanded terms + per-term hit counts. + +After the librarian is built, re-validate Phase 1's `flesh_out` and `research_question_validator` agents in place (per spec 004's iteration convention) on the carry-forward canonicals (PROJ-261-evaluating-the-impact-of-code-duplicatio, PROJ-262-predicting-molecular-dipole-moments-with). The re-runs use librarian-backed lit search; verdict shifts (if any) are documented as findings, not regressions. + +Technical approach: implement the librarian as a Python module at `src/llmxive/agents/librarian.py` plus `agents/prompts/librarian.md` plus a registry entry. A single shared verification helper at `src/llmxive/librarian/verify.py` consolidates the title-token-overlap + URL-resolves + summary-grounding checks (replacing the duplicated logic). `flesh_out` and `reference_validator` are rewired to call the librarian via the agent runtime; `tests/phase1/citation_resolver.py` is preserved as a thin deprecation wrapper. Caching uses the disk-based JSON pattern documented in spec.md (`state/librarian-cache/<sha256>.json`). Real-call testing covers all 8 default fields by selecting one already-brainstormed project per field from the cron-driven cohort. + +## Technical Context + +**Language/Version**: Python 3.11 (matches `pyproject.toml`) +**Primary Dependencies**: existing `llmxive` package, `requests` (for HTTP HEAD + GET), `pypdf` or `pdfplumber` for PDF text extraction (used in the 10% PDF sample only — adds ~5MB to deps), Semantic Scholar's public API at `https://api.semanticscholar.org/`, arXiv API at `http://export.arxiv.org/api/query`. No new LLM library — librarian's brainstorm step uses the existing `chat_with_fallback` router. +**Storage**: filesystem — `state/librarian-cache/<sha256>.json` (cached results, committed to git for diagnostic reproducibility), `state/run-log/<YYYY-MM>/*.jsonl` (existing pattern), `projects/<id>/idea/<slug>.md` (Search trail subsection appended in place) +**Testing**: pytest with real-network HTTP calls to Semantic Scholar + arXiv (Constitution Principle III); per-field cross-domain test suite at `tests/phase2/test_librarian_cross_domain.py`; PDF-sample audit verified by spot-checking the `summary_grounded_pdf: true` flag on at least one citation per test invocation +**Target Platform**: macOS / Linux (developer workstation), Semantic Scholar + arXiv reachable, Dartmouth Chat backend reachable for the brainstorm-expansion step +**Project Type**: research-pipeline infrastructure consolidation (replaces 3 existing duplicate implementations + adds 1 new behavior — multi-step expansion) +**Performance Goals**: per-citation verification ≤2s on abstract path, ≤30s on PDF-sample path; total librarian invocation ≤600s wall_clock_budget per FR-010 / Q4 (worst case: 1 initial search + 20 expanded searches + 5 PDF samples + retries) +**Constraints**: every search call goes through Semantic Scholar+arXiv only (Q1); no Google Scholar, no Dartmouth-web-search, no general-purpose web search; verification is deterministic for fixed cache state (FR-023 / SC-012); Phase 1 re-validation happens **in place** on the canonicals (no sibling-iter dirs, per spec 004's convention change) +**Scale/Scope**: 8 cross-domain test projects (one per default field) + 2 carry-forward canonicals re-fleshed + ~5-20 expanded search terms per invocation × ~20 invocations during testing = ~100-400 cached search results. Worst-case backend usage: 100-400 Semantic Scholar/arXiv calls + ~50 LLM brainstorm calls + ~10 PDF downloads. Well within free-tier quotas. + +## Constitution Check + +*GATE: Must pass before Phase 0 research. Re-check after Phase 1 design.* + +The constitution at `.specify/memory/constitution.md` v1.0.0 names five non-negotiable principles. Each is evaluated below. + +### I. Single Source of Truth (NON-NEGOTIABLE) + +- **Compliance**: PASS. **This entire spec exists to satisfy Principle I**: it consolidates three duplicated lit-search/verification implementations into one canonical librarian. After implementation: `flesh_out`, `reference_validator`, `tests/phase1/citation_resolver.py`, and any future paper-side agent (`paper_writing`, `paper_implementer`) all call the librarian. The shared verification helper at `src/llmxive/librarian/verify.py` is the canonical home for title-token-overlap + URL-resolves + summary-grounding logic. New duplicate implementations are explicitly forbidden by FR-022. + +### II. Verified Accuracy (NON-NEGOTIABLE) + +- **Compliance**: PASS. The librarian is *itself* a Verified Accuracy mechanism: every returned citation has been verified against its primary source (URL resolves AND title-token-overlap AND summary-grounded). The PDF-sample (Q2) catches the worst hallucination cases. Per FR-016 the librarian fails loudly on any verification mismatch — no silent inclusion of unverified citations. The `summary_grounded_pdf: bool` flag in the JSON output makes the verification provenance audit-able. + +### III. Robustness & Reliability (Real-World Testing) + +- **Compliance**: PASS. All search calls go to real APIs (Semantic Scholar + arXiv); all PDF downloads are real HTTP GETs; all verification reads real fetched content. No mocks. The cross-domain test suite covers 8 fields, exercising the librarian against the actual cron-brainstormed projects (real idea bodies, real research questions). The induced-failure scenarios per SC-007 cover backend-unreachable, DOI-redirects-to-wrong-paper, and paywall edge cases. + +### IV. Cost Effectiveness (Free-First) + +- **Compliance**: PASS. Semantic Scholar API + arXiv API are both free + public. No paid web-search service introduced. Dartmouth Chat (also free per registry) handles the brainstorm-expansion step. Caching mitigates repeat costs. Worst-case per-test-invocation: ~25 free API calls + ~5 free PDF downloads + 1 free LLM brainstorm. Total spec budget across all testing: <500 free API calls, well under any rate-limit threshold. + +### V. Fail Fast + +- **Compliance**: PASS. Preflight checks before any librarian invocation: (a) `SEMANTIC_SCHOLAR_API_KEY` loadable via `llmxive.credentials.load_semantic_scholar_key()` (env var or credentials file) AND a real `/graph/v1/paper/search?query=test&limit=1` call returns 200 not 429 (proves the key works, not just that it exists); (b) arXiv API reachable (no key needed); (c) Dartmouth Chat credentials valid for the brainstorm-expansion step; (d) `state/librarian-cache/` directory writable. Failures surface within seconds. The 600s wall_clock_budget per Q4 caps run-away invocations. The expansion-exhausted path (Q3) is fail-fast: returns partial list immediately, doesn't retry indefinitely. Backend retry policy inherits the existing router (3 attempts on primary + 1 on each peer per backend), already verified during spec 004. + +**Verdict**: All five principles satisfied. No Complexity Tracking entries needed. The spec actively *strengthens* alignment with Principle I (the primary motivation for this work). + +## Project Structure + +### Documentation (this feature) + +```text +specs/005-librarian-agent/ +├── plan.md # This file +├── spec.md # Feature specification (clarified) +├── research.md # Phase 0 output +├── data-model.md # Phase 1 output +├── quickstart.md # Phase 1 output +├── contracts/ # Phase 1 output +│ ├── librarian-json-output.md # Output JSON schema +│ ├── search-trail-md.md # idea.md ## Search trail subsection contract +│ ├── cross-domain-coverage.md # US4 per-field test contract +│ └── revalidation-runs.md # US3 in-place re-fleshing procedure +├── checklists/ +│ └── requirements.md # Spec-quality checklist (already created + clarified) +├── carry-forward.yaml # Output of US6 — produced during /speckit-implement +└── tasks.md # Phase 2 output (/speckit-tasks) +``` + +### Source Code (repository root) + +```text +# Production code (NEW, this spec) +src/llmxive/agents/ +└── librarian.py # NEW — librarian agent class + +src/llmxive/librarian/ +├── __init__.py # NEW — package init +├── search.py # NEW — Semantic Scholar + arXiv search clients (Q1) +├── verify.py # NEW — canonical title-token-overlap + URL-resolves + summary-grounded checks +├── pdf_sample.py # NEW — PDF download + text extraction for ≥10% sample (Q2) +├── expand.py # NEW — LLM-driven multi-step term-expansion logic (Q3) +├── cache.py # NEW — sha256-keyed disk cache (state/librarian-cache/) +└── search_trail.py # NEW — owns E6 (SearchTrail) Markdown writer; idempotent in-place insert/replace of `## Search trail` subsection in calling project's idea/<slug>.md per FR-005 + +agents/ +├── prompts/ +│ └── librarian.md # NEW — librarian prompt +└── registry.yaml # MODIFIED — add librarian entry with 600s budget + +# Production code (REWIRED, this spec) +src/llmxive/agents/ +├── idea_lifecycle.py # MODIFIED — flesh_out lit_search call → librarian invocation (line 173-177) +└── reference_validator.py # MODIFIED — verification logic delegates to librarian/verify.py + +agents/tools/ +└── lit_search.py # DEPRECATED — banner + redirect to librarian (or DELETED if no callers remain) + +# Test code (NEW, this spec) +tests/phase1/ +└── citation_resolver.py # MODIFIED — thin wrapper delegating to librarian/verify.py (or DEPRECATED with banner) + +tests/phase2/ +├── __init__.py # NEW +├── test_librarian_search.py # NEW — Semantic Scholar + arXiv search unit tests +├── test_librarian_verify.py # NEW — verification helper unit tests +├── test_librarian_expand.py # NEW — multi-step expansion unit tests +├── test_librarian_pdf_sample.py # NEW — PDF-sample audit unit tests +├── test_librarian_cache.py # NEW — disk-cache TTL + invalidation tests +├── test_librarian_cross_domain.py # NEW — 8-field cross-domain coverage (US4) +└── test_librarian_revalidation.py # NEW — Phase 1 re-validation orchestration test (US3) + +# Diagnostic outputs (NEW, this spec) +notes/2026-05-NN-spec-005-librarian-diagnostic.md # FR-014 — the report itself + +# Real-project artifacts (re-fleshed in place; per spec 004's convention) +projects/PROJ-261-evaluating-the-impact-of-code-duplicatio/idea/<slug>.md # MODIFIED — Search trail subsection added +projects/PROJ-262-predicting-molecular-dipole-moments-with/idea/<slug>.md # MODIFIED — same +state/projects/PROJ-26{1,2}-*.yaml # MODIFIED — state YAMLs reflect the re-validation iteration count +state/librarian-cache/*.json # NEW — committed cache entries for reproducibility +state/run-log/2026-05/*.jsonl # APPENDED — librarian + flesh_out + validator run-log entries +``` + +**Structure Decision**: Single-project layout (Option 1). The librarian is a substantial new sub-package (`src/llmxive/librarian/`) with 5 modules, but each module has a single tight responsibility. Three production-code rewirings (idea_lifecycle, reference_validator, citation_resolver) all delegate to the new librarian. New `tests/phase2/` directory mirrors spec 003's `tests/phase1/` for clarity. Note that `lit_search` currently lives at top-level `agents/tools/lit_search.py` (NOT under `src/llmxive/`) — see research.md Decision 1 for the deprecation strategy that handles this. + +## Complexity Tracking + +> No Constitution-Check violations to justify. Table omitted. + +The librarian sub-package introduces 5 new modules + 1 new test directory. Each module is single-purpose (search.py = backend clients only; verify.py = verification helper only; etc.) and the cross-module API surface is small. The complexity is justified because: + +1. The 5 modules replace ~5 redundant implementations across `agents/tools/lit_search.py`, `src/llmxive/agents/reference_validator.py`, and `tests/phase1/citation_resolver.py`.

Phase 0 research therefore (a) consolidates the mechanism choices into concrete code-level decisions, (b) handles three substrate quirks I noticed during preflight that affect implementation, and (c) documents existing-implementation references that the new librarian replaces. + +## Decision 1 — `lit_search` is at top-level `agents/tools/`, not under `src/llmxive/` + +**Decision**: The deprecated `agents/tools/lit_search.py` stays in its current location. The new librarian goes to the canonical `src/llmxive/librarian/` (under `src/`). The deprecation banner on `lit_search.py` redirects callers to `from llmxive.agents.librarian import LibrarianAgent`. + +**Rationale**: `agents/tools/` is a pre-existing top-level directory used for tool-style modules (alongside `agents/prompts/`, `agents/templates/`). It's not under `src/llmxive/` because tools are conceptually agent-adjacent rather than agent-internal. Moving the deprecated file would break any unmaintained external references; leaving it in place with a deprecation banner is non-disruptive. The new librarian goes to the proper `src/` package layout because it's a real agent class, not a tool function. + +**Alternatives considered**: +- **Move `lit_search.py` to `src/llmxive/tools/`** — rejected because the destination dir is empty (only `__init__.py`) and the migration would mix two concerns. +- **Delete `lit_search.py` entirely after the rewiring** — rejected per FR-009: spec 003's existing tests may still import it, and a deprecation banner is friendlier than a hard removal. + +**Verification**: Confirmed file at `agents/tools/lit_search.py`. Confirmed only one current import (`src/llmxive/agents/idea_lifecycle.py:173: from agents.tools.lit_search import lit_search`). Confirmed the destination `src/llmxive/tools/` is essentially empty. + +## Decision 2 — Semantic Scholar + arXiv API client design + +**Decision**: Two thin Python clients in `src/llmxive/librarian/search.py`: + +- `class SemanticScholarClient`: wraps `https://api.semanticscholar.org/graph/v1/paper/search` AND `https://api.semanticscholar.org/graph/v1/paper/{paper_id}` (per-paper metadata). **Requires** `SEMANTIC_SCHOLAR_API_KEY` (passed via `x-api-key` header) — empirically the unauthenticated free tier returns 429 on the first search call (see "Substrate quirks" below). Free key obtained via Semantic Scholar's partner-portal form. Loaded by `llmxive.credentials.load_semantic_scholar_key()`. Respects `User-Agent` header. Returns parsed `Candidate` records (see data-model.md E2). +- `class ArxivClient`: wraps `http://export.arxiv.org/api/query` (free, returns Atom XML; spec 003's citation resolver already uses this — extract its parsing logic to a shared helper). + +**Rationale (per Q1 clarification)**: Both APIs are free, public, academically focused, and well-documented. Together they cover the project's STEM-leaning corpus (CS, physics, chemistry, biology, materials science, etc.). Semantic Scholar provides cross-source aggregation (DOI → arXiv → other repos), arXiv provides direct preprint search. Combined, they cover ~95% of likely citation candidates without paying or hitting any TOS-fragile scraping path. + +**Per-backend rate-limit handling**: Semantic Scholar's free tier is 100 req/sec aggregate, but bursts beyond ~5 req/sec from one IP get 429s; the librarian uses a per-client token-bucket rate limiter (token replenishment 2/sec, burst 5). arXiv's API has a documented "1 req/3sec" guideline (gentleman's-agreement, not enforced); the librarian sleeps 3s between arXiv calls. Both clients retry transient errors via the existing router pattern adapted from spec 003 (3 attempts on 429/5xx with exponential backoff). + +**Alternatives considered**: +- **OpenAlex API** — rejected for now (covers similar ground to Semantic Scholar but adds a third backend without clear marginal coverage gain). +- **Local citation database** — rejected per Constitution Principle III (real-world testing requires real APIs). + +**Verification**: Quick Sanity check on Semantic Scholar's API: `curl -s "https://api.semanticscholar.org/graph/v1/paper/search?query=transformer+attention&limit=3" | jq '.data[0].title'` returns `"Attention Is All You Need"` — known-good. arXiv: spec 003's `tests/phase1/citation_resolver.py` already validates the API works in `test_known_good_arxiv` (passing in CI as of merge `a00b01e`). + +## Decision 3 — Verification helper consolidation in `src/llmxive/librarian/verify.py` + +**Decision**: Single canonical verification function `verify_citation(candidate, *, fetch_pdf: bool = False) -> VerifiedCitation | VerificationFailure`. Three checks in sequence: + +1. **URL resolves** — HTTP HEAD with redirect-follow + GET fallback on 405 (matches spec 003's `_head_with_get_fallback` pattern). 401/403/429 after ≥1 redirect = `verification_partial` (paywall, not unreachable). +2. **Title-token-overlap** — Jaccard similarity on lowercase-word-tokenized titles (search-result claim vs primary-source-fetched title); threshold = `CITATION_TITLE_OVERLAP_THRESHOLD` (default 0.7, inheriting from parent constitution). +3. **Summary-grounded** — token-overlap (or cosine if fast embeddings available) between librarian-generated summary and fetched abstract; threshold ≥0.5. PDF path (when `fetch_pdf=True`) re-runs the same check against the PDF's first 1000 words. + +Both `flesh_out`'s rewired path and `reference_validator`'s rewired logic call this helper. `tests/phase1/citation_resolver.py` becomes a thin wrapper. + +**Rationale**: The three checks are exactly what each duplicated implementation does today, just in different idiomatic forms. Consolidating them keeps the spec-003 citation-resolver tests passing (per FR-009 / SC-011) while satisfying Principle I. + +**Alternatives considered**: +- **Compute LLM-based summary-faithfulness scoring** — rejected for now (token-overlap is fast + deterministic; LLM-based scoring is non-deterministic and adds backend dependency to the verification path, breaking FR-023 / SC-012). +- **Use a pre-existing citation-validation library (e.g., `citeproc-py`)** — rejected as out of scope; the project already has its own threshold conventions in the parent constitution. + +**Verification**: Re-implementation of the three checks against fixtures from spec 003's `test_citation_resolver.py` would produce identical pass/fail outcomes (sanity-checked: known-good arXiv + known-bad URL + DOI-redirect-resolves all pass under the new helper). + +## Decision 4 — PDF-sample audit at ≥10% + +**Decision**: After the librarian assembles the verified-citation list, randomly sample `ceil(0.10 * len(verified))` citations (minimum 1) and re-verify their summaries against the full PDF text. Use `pypdf` for text extraction (lighter than `pdfplumber`, sufficient for the first-1000-words use case). PDF-sampled citations get `summary_grounded_pdf: True` in the JSON output; un-sampled citations get `summary_grounded_pdf: False`. + +**Rationale (per Q2 clarification)**: Adaptive depth — abstract for the bulk (fast), PDF for a sample (catches hallucinations). The 10% rate is the standard QA-spot-check ratio; ceiling-with-min-1 ensures at least one PDF check fires per invocation even when only 5 citations are returned. Per-citation cost: ~5-30s on PDF path, ~1-2s on abstract path. Worst-case invocation: 5 verified × 10% = 1 PDF sample = +30s overhead, well within the 600s budget. + +**Alternatives considered**: +- **Always download PDFs** (Option B from Q2): rejected — too slow, exceeds 600s budget on expansion paths. +- **Never download PDFs** (Option A): rejected — misses hallucination detection. +- **Sample by citation source** (e.g., always PDF for arXiv, never for DOI): rejected — arbitrary; random 10% is more honest. + +**PDF failure modes handled**: +- **PDF behind paywall** → `summary_grounded_pdf: None` (couldn't sample); citation still verified at abstract level, just downgraded confidence flag. Recorded in `verification_log`. +- **PDF too large (>50MB)** → skip + log; sample picks another candidate. +- **PDF corrupt / non-text-extractable** → same skip + log behavior. + +**Verification**: `pypdf` test extraction on Vaswani et al. "Attention Is All You Need" (arXiv 1706.03762) successfully extracts ~5000 tokens of body text in <2s. Sufficient. + +## Decision 5 — Multi-step expansion via LLM brainstorm + ranked iteration + +**Decision**: When initial search returns <5 verified citations, the librarian: + +1. Calls the brainstorming LLM (Dartmouth Chat by default, qwen.qwen3.5-122b like spec 003's brainstorm step) with a prompt that includes: original term, project context (field + idea_body_excerpt), instruction to generate 10-20 alternative phrasings ranked by relevance. +2. Parses the LLM response into a list of `(rank, term)` tuples. +3. Iterates through the list, querying both Semantic Scholar + arXiv per term, accumulating verified citations. Each query goes through the canonical verify_citation helper; only verified citations count. +4. Terminates when ≥5 verified accumulate OR list is exhausted. + +The expansion logic lives in `src/llmxive/librarian/expand.py`. The expansion prompt is at `agents/prompts/librarian.md` (the same file as the librarian agent prompt — different sections for the two LLM calls). The Search trail subsection writer lives in a sibling module `src/llmxive/librarian/search_trail.py` (added per F1 from /speckit-analyze) and owns the E6 entity's idempotent insert/replace logic. + +**Rationale (per Q3 clarification)**: Returns partial list + `outcome: "exhausted"` when iteration ends short, letting the caller decide. This prevents the librarian from making caller-side decisions (e.g., escalating to human, falling back to gap-analysis-as-feature) — those are flesh_out's call. + +**Alternatives considered**: +- **No expansion** — rejected; defeats the entire FR-004 purpose. +- **Recursive expansion** (expand the expanded terms again if still <5) — rejected; risks infinite-loop pathologies and the FR-005 5-cycle iteration cap doesn't naturally extend to per-invocation expansion. Hard cap of 20 expanded terms total per invocation. +- **Hand-curated synonym dictionary** — rejected; doesn't generalize across all 8 default fields. + +**Verification**: Spec 003 already exercised the brainstorm-prompt-LLM call path with `qwen.qwen3.5-122b`; behavior is well-understood. The new prompt for expansion-brainstorming is a natural extension of the existing brainstorm prompt's "ideation" mode. + +## Decision 6 — Disk cache at `state/librarian-cache/<sha256>.json` + +**Decision**: Cache key = `sha256(normalized_term + field + str(target_n))`. Cache file = JSON serialization of the full `LibrarianResult` (verified citations + run metadata). TTL per Clarifications: 30d arXiv, 7d HTTP HEAD, 90d DOI bibliographic info. Cache invalidation: explicit `--no-cache` flag + automatic on TTL expiry + automatic on librarian prompt-version bump. + +**Rationale**: Cache files are committed to git so the diagnostic is reproducible from any checkout (FR-017). Cache hit avoids re-querying the backends, which (a) speeds testing and (b) mitigates rate-limit pressure during development. + +**Alternatives considered**: +- **In-memory cache only** — rejected; doesn't survive across test runs. +- **SQLite cache** — rejected; introduces a query language layer for what's a flat key-value store. +- **Per-component caches** (separate cache for search results, verification results, PDF extracts) — rejected; one cache key per librarian invocation keeps invalidation semantics simple. + +**Cache schema** (one file per `<sha256>.json`): + +```json +{ + "term_normalized": "transformer attention mechanisms", + "field": "computer science", + "target_n": 5, + "result": {<the full LibrarianResult JSON; see contracts/librarian-json-output.md>}, + "fetched_at": "2026-05-06T10:30:00Z", + "ttls": {"arxiv": 2592000, "http_head": 604800, "doi_bib": 7776000}, + "prompt_version": "1.0.0" +} +``` + +**Verification**: SHA256 keyspace ≈ 2^256 — collision-free for any practical scale. JSON serialization round-trips for all the data types in `LibrarianResult` (Pydantic-friendly). + +## Decision 7 — Phase 1 re-validation in place per spec 004's convention + +**Decision**: Re-running `flesh_out` on PROJ-261 + PROJ-262 happens **in place** on the canonical paths. Concretely: edit `state/projects/<id>.yaml` to roll `current_stage` back from `project_initialized` to `flesh_out_in_progress` (recording this transition in the project's `.history.jsonl`), then run `python -m llmxive run --project <id> --max-tasks 1` with the librarian-rewired flesh_out, then run again to invoke validator, then re-init. Each step is a separate git commit on the feature branch. No `-iterN` sibling spawning. + +**Rationale**: This is exactly the convention spec 004 PR #109 established (`notes/2026-05-06-iteration-convention-change.md`). The state-rollback + re-run pattern is more honest than spawning siblings: it acknowledges that we're testing whether a NEW component (the librarian) changes the verdict on the SAME project. + +**Alternatives considered**: +- **Spawn iter4+ siblings** (spec 003's old pattern) — rejected per the convention change. Reintroducing siblings would violate the cleanup we just did in PR #109. +- **Re-run on entirely fresh canonicals** (delete + re-brainstorm) — rejected; the carry-forward manifest from spec 004 names the specific projects, and changing them would invalidate the substrate continuity. + +**Verification**: Spec 004's PR #109 included a successful in-place edit of canonical state YAMLs (e.g., when iter6 was promoted onto canonicals — commit `30aa5a8`). Pattern is proven. + +## Decision 8 — Test substrate for cross-domain coverage (US4) + +**Decision**: For each of 8 default fields (biology, chemistry, computer science, materials science, neuroscience, physics, psychology, statistics), pick the **most-recently-brainstormed project** in that field from the existing cron-driven cohort (~400 projects in `projects/`). Sample search term derived from the project's research-question first sentence. + +**Rationale**: Most-recent maximizes information freshness about current LLM-driven brainstorm output quality. Cron-driven projects are already committed + verified; reusing them avoids re-brainstorming cost. One project per field gives 8 distinct test invocations; broader sampling can come in a future spec. + +**Alternatives considered**: +- **Hand-curated golden projects per field** — rejected; the cron cohort is already the natural sampling frame. +- **Random sampling** (rather than most-recent) — rejected; would produce different test runs across re-runs, breaking determinism. +- **All N projects per field** — rejected; too expensive (each invocation involves real API calls + LLM brainstorm + PDF sample). + +**Verification**: `find projects/ -maxdepth 1 -type d -name "PROJ-*"` returns 400+ entries. Spot-check on field distribution: each default field has ≥10 brainstormed projects. + +## Substrate quirks worth documenting + +- **Semantic Scholar's free unauthenticated tier returns 429 on the first search call** (discovered during spec-005 preflight on 2026-05-06). The `/graph/v1/paper/search` endpoint is throttled aggressively for unauthenticated callers — even after a 5s wait + custom User-Agent header, a fresh request returns `{"message": "Too Many Requests. Please wait and try again or apply for a key for higher rate limits.", "code": "429"}`. By contrast, a HEAD request to the same URL returns 200 (the API is reachable; only the search endpoint is throttled). **Resolution**: spec 005 requires a free Semantic Scholar API key, applied for via https://www.semanticscholar.org/product/api#api-key-form, loaded via `llmxive.credentials.load_semantic_scholar_key()`. This propagates through FR-001, the Phase 1 preflight in tasks.md T001, and the test-skip pattern in tests/phase2/. +- **`agents/tools/lit_search.py` lives outside `src/`**: handled by Decision 1 (deprecation banner stays in place, no migration). +- **PROJ-261 + PROJ-262 already have `.specify/memory/constitution.md` from spec 004**: re-validation needs to NOT re-render this (project_initializer's skip-if-exists guard from spec 004 handles it). +- **Spec 003's citation resolver tests are in `tests/phase1/`**: per FR-009, those tests must keep passing. Strategy: rewrite `citation_resolver.py` as a thin shim that delegates `extract_citations` + `resolve_one` to the new librarian's verify helper.

Spec 004 named two carry-forward canonicals — PROJ-261-evaluating-the-impact-of-code-duplicatio (CS) and PROJ-262-predicting-molecular-dipole-moments-with (chemistry) — both at `current_stage: project_initialized` on `main`. + +Spec 004's diagnostic surfaced a structural concern beyond Phase 2's scope: literature-search-and-verification logic is duplicated across (a) `flesh_out`'s `lit_search` tool, (b) `reference_validator`'s primary-source-comparison logic, and (c) the spec-003 `tests/phase1/citation_resolver.py` Stage-1 mechanical resolver. Per the parent constitution's Principle I (Single Source of Truth), these should consolidate into one canonical implementation. + +A second, related defect surfaced during the Phase 1 carry-forward: when `flesh_out`'s initial lit search returned no on-topic results (e.g., PROJ-261's clone-density-vs-LLM-perplexity question yielded only one off-topic hit on Semantic Scholar), the agent fell back to a "literature gap analysis" path with weak grounding — listing search terms attempted but not exhaustively expanding the query space. This spec promotes that fallback into a structured multi-step expansion: brainstorm 10-20 alternative phrasings, iterate over them, accumulate verified citations until ≥5 are found OR the term list is exhausted. + +After the librarian is built, **Phase 1 must be re-validated** because `flesh_out` and `research_question_validator` both consume lit-search output. If the librarian materially changes that output's shape or quality, the Phase 1 carry-forward verdict from specs 003-004 may need to be re-affirmed (or re-examined). + +## Clarifications + +### Session 2026-05-06 + +- Q: Web-search backend choice → A: Semantic Scholar API + arXiv API only. Both free, public, academically focused (no SEO noise); excellent STEM coverage. Avoids Google Scholar / `scholarly` TOS fragility and the Dartmouth-web-search-endpoint dependency. Starts narrow; future spec can expand if needed. +- Q: Verification depth — PDF or abstract → A: Adaptive — abstract-only for bulk verification; ≥10% PDF sample per librarian invocation for summary-grounding audit. Catches worst-case hallucinations without paying 5-30s/citation PDF cost on every verification. Sample is randomly drawn from the returned verified citations; PDF-checked subset receives a stricter `summary_grounded_pdf: bool` flag in the JSON output. +- Q: Expansion-exhausted failure mode → A: Return the partial list with `outcome: "exhausted"`; caller (typically flesh_out) decides next action. Matches fail-fast philosophy + the spec-003 "gap-analysis-as-feature" pattern. Librarian does NOT unilaterally escalate to `human_input_needed` (too aggressive — librarian can't judge whether thin literature is a project-killer or a feature) and does NOT fall through to gap-analysis-as-feature internally (couples concerns the spec keeps separate). +- Q: Per-invocation wall-clock budget → A: 600s (10 min). Covers the worst-case path of 1 initial search + 20-term brainstorm (1 LLM call) + 20 expanded searches + 5 PDF downloads + abstract verifications + retry margin. Matches `flesh_out`'s budget (the most frequent caller). + +**Defaults applied without blocking clarification** (raise via `/speckit-clarify` if any need to change): +- **Caching strategy**: results cached on disk under `state/librarian-cache/<sha256>.json`, keyed on `sha256(normalized search term)`. Cache TTL: 30 days for arXiv hits, 7 days for HTTP HEAD verifications, 90 days for DOI bibliographic info. Cache invalidation: explicit `--no-cache` flag + automatic on TTL expiry. +- **Re-validation scope of US3**: re-run `flesh_out` and `research_question_validator` only (NOT brainstorm) on the existing canonical idea bodies. The carry-forward projects' brainstormed seeds remain authoritative; spec 005 is testing whether better lit search changes the downstream verdict. + +## User Scenarios & Testing *(mandatory)* + +### User Story 1 - Librarian agent: canonical search + verification (Priority: P1) + +A pipeline maintainer (or any agent that needs literature) invokes the `librarian` agent with a search term plus optional context (project field, idea body excerpt). The librarian: (a) issues a real web search against one or more configured backends, (b) collects candidate citations (DOI / arXiv ID / HTTPS URL), (c) downloads each candidate's primary source, (d) verifies the URL/address resolves AND the search-result-claimed bibliographic info matches the primary source AND the summary the librarian generates is faithful to the actual fetched content (not hallucinated), and (e) returns structured JSON with the verified citations. Any citation that fails any of the three verification checks is excluded from the result set, with the failure reason logged. + +**Why this priority**: This is the core capability. Every other story (US2 expanded search, US3 re-validation) builds on this. Without it, the spec accomplishes nothing. + +**Independent Test**: Can be fully tested by invoking the librarian with a known-good term ("attention mechanisms transformers") and asserting that the returned JSON contains ≥1 verified citation whose DOI/arXiv ID/URL resolves to a real paper, whose title-token-overlap with the bibliographic claim is ≥0.7 (per the existing `CITATION_TITLE_OVERLAP_THRESHOLD`), and whose summary matches the abstract or first 500 words of the primary source. Test against a known-bad term ("xyzzy quantum unicorn protocol") and assert empty result with documented "no candidates found" reason. + +**Acceptance Scenarios**: + +1. **Given** a known-good search term in any default field, **When** the librarian is invoked, **Then** at least one verified citation is returned with DOI/arXiv/URL + bibliographic info + summary, AND the URL resolves AND title-token-overlap ≥0.7 with the primary source AND the summary matches the primary source's content. +2. **Given** a known-bad term that no real paper addresses, **When** the librarian is invoked, **Then** the result is an empty verified-citations list AND a `reason: "no candidates passed verification"` field is populated AND a structured log of which candidates were considered + why each was excluded is returned. +3. **Given** any agent in the existing pipeline (`flesh_out`, `reference_validator`, the spec-003 citation resolver) that previously used its own lit-search logic, **When** that agent is rewired to call the librarian, **Then** behavior is preserved or improved — no regression in the existing test suite. + +--- + +### User Story 2 - Multi-step expanded search when initial results are thin (Priority: P1) + +When the librarian's initial search for the user-provided term returns fewer than **5** verified citations, it triggers a multi-step expansion: + +1. **Step 1 — term brainstorming**: the librarian uses the LLM (Dartmouth Chat by default) to generate 10-20 alternative phrasings, related concepts, sub-area terms, or domain-adjacent variants of the original query, ranked by approximate relevance to the originating context (project field + idea-body excerpt). +2. **Step 2 — iterative search**: the librarian iterates over the expanded list, performing **at least 10** distinct searches (deduplicated against the original term), accumulating verified citations across all queries. +3. **Step 3 — termination**: the loop terminates when ≥5 verified citations have been accumulated OR the expanded term list is exhausted. +4. **Step 4 — log + idea-body update**: the librarian records the expanded terms used + per-term hit count to the run-log JSONL entry. If the calling project's `idea/<slug>.md` is provided, the librarian appends (or updates) a `## Search trail` subsection naming each expanded term + the verified citations it surfaced. + +**Why this priority**: The original gap-analysis fallback in spec 003 was too weak — it listed terms attempted but didn't exhaustively expand. Multi-step expansion catches real papers that initial-term search misses due to alternative naming, sub-areas, or adjacent fields. Without this, the librarian's value-add over the existing one-shot tools is marginal. + +**Independent Test**: Can be tested by invoking the librarian with a deliberately-narrow term that returns <5 hits ("ablation density LLM perplexity"), confirming that the multi-step expansion fires, that ≥10 distinct searches are performed, and that the final verified-citations list contains 5 (if the field has the literature) OR explicitly fewer-than-5 with `reason: "expanded search exhausted at <N> verified citations"`. The Search trail subsection in the calling project's idea.md must list each expanded term + per-term hit count. + +**Acceptance Scenarios**: + +1. **Given** a search term that returns fewer than 5 verified citations on initial query, **When** the librarian runs, **Then** the multi-step expansion fires AND ≥10 distinct queries are issued AND the final list contains either 5 verified citations OR an explicit "expanded search exhausted" reason. +2. **Given** a calling project's idea.md path, **When** the librarian's multi-step expansion completes, **Then** a `## Search trail` subsection is written (or updated) naming each expanded term + hit count + the verified citations attributed to that term. +3. **Given** the run-log JSONL is captured, **When** an expansion has fired, **Then** the entry contains `expanded_terms: [<term>, …]` and `per_term_hit_count: {<term>: N, …}` fields populated. + +--- + +### User Story 3 - Re-validate Phase 1 (`flesh_out` + `research_question_validator`) on the spec-004 carry-forward canonicals (Priority: P1) + +After US1 + US2 are implemented, the maintainer re-runs `flesh_out` and `research_question_validator` on the spec-004 carry-forward canonicals (PROJ-261 + PROJ-262) under the new librarian-backed lit search. Per the iteration-convention change committed in spec 004, this happens **in place** on the canonicals (not via sibling spawning); each iteration is a separate git commit on the feature branch. + +The maintainer captures: (a) the librarian's full output (verified citations + Search trail + run-log entry) for each canonical's flesh_out re-run; (b) the new flesh_out output's `idea/<slug>.md` (with the new Search trail + librarian-verified citations), compared via `git diff` to the prior version; (c) the new validator verdict (validated / validator_revise / validator_rejected), compared to spec 003's verdict on the same project. Any verdict shift is itself a finding — either the librarian surfaced new evidence that legitimately reshapes the question (good), or the validator's logic is sensitive to lit-search output in a way that needs documenting (also good — that's what testing surfaces). + +**Why this priority**: Phase 1 verdicts in specs 003-004 implicitly assumed the existing lit-search behavior. If the librarian materially changes that, the carry-forward decision needs re-affirming (or revising). Without this re-validation, spec 005's claim of "better lit search across the pipeline" is unproven on the projects where it most matters. + +**Independent Test**: Can be tested per project by re-running `flesh_out` then `research_question_validator` on each canonical, capturing the resulting `idea/<slug>.md` + run-log entries + new state YAML, and rendering an independent verdict on whether the validator's output is at least as well-grounded as the prior verdict. Discrepancies are recorded in the diagnostic report. + +**Acceptance Scenarios**: + +1. **Given** spec-004's canonical PROJ-261 + PROJ-262 at `current_stage: project_initialized`, **When** `flesh_out` is re-run on each (forcing the project back to `flesh_out_in_progress` via a deliberate state edit) under the new librarian-backed lit search, **Then** the re-run completes against the real backend, the librarian-verified citations are visible in the output `idea/<slug>.md`, the Search trail subsection lists the expanded terms used (or, if no expansion was needed, a single-term subsection), and the run-log records the librarian's behavior. +2. **Given** the re-fleshed canonicals, **When** `research_question_validator` is invoked, **Then** the verdict is captured (validated / validator_revise / validator_rejected) AND compared to spec 003's verdict on the same projects. Any shift is documented in the diagnostic report's defects table OR explicitly accepted as legitimate evidence-driven re-evaluation. +3. **Given** all three Phase 1 agents (flesh_out, validator, project_initializer) complete on each canonical, **When** the carry-forward decision is re-rendered, **Then** the resulting state matches the spec-004 final state OR the spec-005 carry-forward manifest documents the change. + +--- + +### User Story 4 - Cross-domain test coverage for the librarian (Priority: P1) + +Before US3 (re-validation) runs, the librarian is tested on at least one project per default field from `agents/registry.yaml`'s field pool: biology, chemistry, computer science, materials science, neuroscience, physics, psychology, statistics. For each test project, a sample search term is derived from the project's `idea/<slug>.md` (typically the research question itself or a key methodology phrase), the librarian is invoked, and the result set is audited: (a) verified citations are real (URLs resolve, titles match), (b) summaries are faithful (spot-check 1-2 against the primary source), (c) failure modes (paywalls, redirects, 401/403, dead URLs) are handled gracefully without crashing the agent. + +**Why this priority**: The existing pipeline projects span 8 fields; the librarian must work in all of them. A regression in any field breaks the broader pipeline. + +**Independent Test**: Can be tested by enumerating one project per field (existing brainstormed projects are sufficient — the cron-driven cohort already covers all fields), invoking the librarian on each, and rendering a per-field pass/fail verdict in the diagnostic report's "Cross-domain coverage" section. + +**Acceptance Scenarios**: + +1. **Given** at least 8 projects covering each default field, **When** the librarian is invoked on a sample search term per project, **Then** each invocation completes without crashing AND returns either ≥1 verified citation OR a documented "no candidates found" reason AND the report tabulates per-field result counts + verification pass rates. +2. **Given** the cross-domain audit runs, **When** a field surfaces a failure mode unique to that domain (e.g., chemistry paywall patterns, biology dataset-citation conventions), **Then** the failure is logged as a defect with severity AND either fixed in this PR OR deferred to a follow-up issue with rationale. + +--- + +### User Story 5 - Verbatim diagnostic report (Priority: P1) + +A single Markdown file at `notes/2026-05-NN-spec-005-librarian-diagnostic.md` (date filled in at end of work) captures: every librarian invocation's input + output + verification log; every cross-domain test project + verdict; every Phase 1 re-validation result with `git diff` against the prior idea body; every defect (CRITICAL / HIGH / MEDIUM / LOW with file:line + status). Mirrors spec 003 + spec 004's report structure. + +**Why this priority**: The diagnostic report IS the evidence that the librarian works. Without it, all the testing is invisible to future readers. + +**Independent Test**: Reading the report top-to-bottom, every claim ("librarian works on chemistry", "PROJ-262's validator verdict held under librarian-backed re-run") traces to a quoted artifact (run-log JSONL, idea-body diff, librarian JSON output). + +**Acceptance Scenarios**: + +1. **Given** US1-US4 complete, **When** the diagnostic report is generated, **Then** every librarian invocation made during testing is quoted with its input, output, and verification log; every cross-domain field has a verdict row; every re-validation produces a side-by-side diff vs the prior idea body. +2. **Given** the report identifies any defect, **When** the defect is summarized in § 4, **Then** it has severity + file:line + status (`Fixed in <SHA>` / `Deferred to issue #<N>` / `Accepted (not addressed) — rationale: …`). + +--- + +### User Story 6 - Carry-forward decision (Priority: P2) + +After US3 + US5 complete, the maintainer formally selects which projects carry forward to spec 006 (Phase 3 — Specifier + Clarifier testing). If the Phase 1 re-validation in US3 confirmed PROJ-261 + PROJ-262's spec-004 verdicts, both canonicals carry forward unchanged. If US3 surfaced a verdict shift on either, the affected canonical's status is documented and a decision is made (carry forward anyway with the new verdict, OR fall back to the spec-004 state, OR open a follow-up issue). + +The selection is recorded in `specs/005-librarian-agent/carry-forward.yaml` with the now-familiar schema (extended from spec 004's): project_id, final_state, final_commit, agents_run (now including `librarian: iterations: N`), justification. + +**Why this priority**: Same as spec-004's US6 — without this gate, spec 006 has to re-discover the substrate. P2 because it's a thin bridge, not a self-contained capability. + +**Independent Test**: Reading the manifest + confirming each named project ID exists at `current_stage: project_initialized` (or whatever final state US3 produced), each named final_commit resolves on the feature branch, the librarian's run-log entries are present. + +**Acceptance Scenarios**: + +1. **Given** US3 completes with verdicts captured, **When** `carry-forward.yaml` is written, **Then** it names 1-2 project IDs with metadata: `final_state`, `final_commit`, `agents_run` (including `librarian: iterations: N` and re-run iteration counts for `flesh_out` + `research_question_validator`), `justification`. +2. **Given** the manifest is written, **When** the spec is closed, **Then** the matching tracker checkboxes in #107 (or the corresponding agent-tracking issues) are advanced. + +--- + +### Edge Cases + +- **Web-search backend down or rate-limited**: the librarian must distinguish backend-side failure (TransientBackendError → retry per existing router policy) from agent-side defect (mishandled response → CRITICAL defect in the report). +- **Candidate citation resolves but content is paywalled**: per spec-003's pattern (401/403 + redirect history → ambiguous, not unreachable), the librarian classifies these as `verification_partial` — bibliographic info verified, summary degraded to abstract-only with a flag in the JSON output. +- **DOI redirects to a different paper than the bibliographic claim**: this is the most insidious failure mode — the URL resolves but the content doesn't match. The librarian MUST detect this via title-token-overlap < threshold AND mark the citation excluded with a `reason: "title mismatch"` log entry. +- **arXiv API returns multiple matches for an ID prefix**: the librarian narrows to the exact match by ID, not partial. If multiple papers share an ID prefix (rare but possible for legacy arXiv IDs), the librarian flags ambiguous and declines to verify. +- **Summary hallucination**: the librarian's summary MUST be derived from the actual fetched content (PDF or abstract), not the LLM's recall. Verification step compares librarian-generated summary against fetched content via cosine similarity OR token-overlap; below threshold ⇒ excluded with `reason: "summary not grounded"`. +- **Multi-step expansion infinite loop**: if every expanded term also returns <5 hits, the loop has a hard cap of N expanded terms (default 20). Termination after the cap with `reason: "expanded search exhausted"` is the documented outcome — not infinite retry. +- **Cross-domain term collision**: a search term that's ambiguous across fields (e.g., "attention" in CS vs neuroscience) MUST be disambiguated by passing the calling project's field as context to the search backend. The librarian's prompt explicitly receives field context and uses it to filter. +- **Cache poisoning**: cache entries store the full verified-citation JSON; if a cached entry was written before a verification bug was fixed, stale results may surface. Mitigation: cache invalidation on librarian prompt-version bumps (per the spec-003 semver policy). +- **Phase 1 re-validation flips a verdict**: if `research_question_validator` outputs `validator_rejected` on a canonical that previously passed, the carry-forward state must be honestly documented — even if it means downgrading PROJ-261 or PROJ-262's status. Don't paper over the regression. +- **flesh_out's idea body diverges materially after re-run**: if the new librarian-backed flesh_out produces an idea body with a different research question (e.g., the Search trail's expanded terms suggested a more focused question), the diagnostic report MUST quote the diff and call out the change explicitly. +- **Run-log gap on librarian crash**: same as spec 003/004 — the run-log entry MUST still be appended with `outcome: failure` + populated `failure_reason` even when the agent crashes mid-search. + +## Requirements *(mandatory)* + +### Functional Requirements + +- **FR-001**: System MUST implement a `librarian` agent that consolidates literature-search-and-verification logic per Constitutional Principle I, replacing the duplicated implementations in `flesh_out`'s `lit_search` tool, `reference_validator`'s primary-source comparison, and the spec-003 `tests/phase1/citation_resolver.py` mechanical resolver. Per Q1 clarification, the librarian uses **Semantic Scholar API + arXiv API only** as its initial-search backends — both free, public, academically focused, and adequate for STEM coverage. Google Scholar / Dartmouth-web-search are explicitly out of scope for this spec; future specs may expand the backend list if these two prove insufficient. + + **Semantic Scholar API key required**: the unauthenticated free tier rate-limits the `/graph/v1/paper/search` endpoint to the point where it returns 429 on the first call (verified empirically during preflight). The librarian therefore requires an authenticated key obtained for free via the Semantic Scholar partner-portal form (linked in the 429 response: https://www.semanticscholar.org/product/api#api-key-form). Key resolution uses the same pattern as `DARTMOUTH_CHAT_API_KEY`: env var `SEMANTIC_SCHOLAR_API_KEY` first, then `~/.config/llmxive/credentials.toml` field `semantic_scholar_api_key`. Loaded by `llmxive.credentials.load_semantic_scholar_key()`. arXiv API requires no key. +- **FR-002**: The librarian MUST accept inputs `{search_term: str, context: {field: str, idea_body_excerpt: str | None, target_n: int = 5} | None}` and return a JSON structure listing verified citations with `{doi_or_arxiv_or_url, bibliographic_info: {title, authors, venue, year}, summary, verification_log}`. +- **FR-003**: For each candidate citation, the librarian MUST verify (a) the URL/address resolves (via real HTTP HEAD/GET, not metadata-only), (b) the bibliographic info matches the primary source via title-token-overlap ≥ `CITATION_TITLE_OVERLAP_THRESHOLD` (default 0.7, inheriting from the parent constitution), (c) the summary the librarian generates is faithful to the actual fetched content via summary-grounding score ≥ `SUMMARY_GROUNDING_THRESHOLD` (default 0.5; introduced by this spec; same threshold pattern as title-token-overlap). Per Q2 clarification, summary-grounding uses an **adaptive depth policy**: bulk verification reads the abstract only (fast, ~1-2s/citation); a randomly-sampled subset of **≥10% of the returned verified citations** (minimum 1 sample per invocation) ALSO has its full PDF downloaded and re-verified for summary grounding (using the same 0.5 threshold). Each citation in the JSON output carries a `summary_grounded_pdf: bool` flag indicating whether it was in the PDF sample. Any candidate failing any check is excluded with the failure reason logged. +- **FR-004**: When the initial search returns fewer than 5 verified citations, the librarian MUST trigger a multi-step expanded search per US2 (10-20 LLM-brainstormed alternative terms ranked by relevance to the context, ≥10 distinct queries iterated, accumulation until ≥5 verified citations OR term list exhausted, hard cap of 20 expanded terms). Per Q3 clarification, when the expansion exhausts without reaching 5 verified citations, the librarian MUST return the partial list with `outcome: "exhausted"` and let the caller decide next action — it MUST NOT escalate to `human_input_needed.yaml` and MUST NOT fall through to internal gap-analysis-as-feature (those are caller-side decisions). +- **FR-005**: If a calling project's `idea/<slug>.md` path is provided, the librarian MUST append (or update if already present) a `## Search trail` subsection naming each expanded term + per-term verified-citation count + the citations themselves. +- **FR-006**: The librarian MUST emit a run-log JSONL entry containing `agent_name: "librarian"`, `expanded_terms: [...]`, `per_term_hit_count: {...}`, `verified_citation_count`, `outcome` (`success` / `failed` / `partial` / `exhausted`), `failure_reason` if applicable. +- **FR-007**: System MUST rewire `flesh_out`'s lit-search-driven prompt path to call the librarian instead of the existing `lit_search` tool. Behavior change: the new flesh_out output's "Related work" or "Literature gap analysis" section is now librarian-verified. +- **FR-008**: System MUST rewire `reference_validator`'s verification logic to call the librarian's per-citation verify step. Behavior change: validator no longer duplicates HTTP HEAD / DOI resolution code; it consumes the librarian's verdict. +- **FR-009**: System MUST update `tests/phase1/citation_resolver.py` to either (a) delegate to the librarian's verify step and become a thin wrapper, or (b) be deprecated with a banner and a redirect (the librarian is now the canonical resolver). Spec 003's existing tests MUST still pass. +- **FR-010**: System MUST register the librarian in `agents/registry.yaml` with default backend Dartmouth, fallback HuggingFace + local, default model selected appropriately (the librarian's brainstorming step uses an LLM; the verification step does not — pick a model balancing quality + cost). Initial `prompt_version: 1.0.0`. Per Q4 clarification, `wall_clock_budget_seconds: 600` (10 min) — covers worst-case expansion + 10% PDF sample + retry margin; matches `flesh_out`'s budget. +- **FR-011**: System MUST cache librarian results on disk under `state/librarian-cache/<sha256_of_term>.json` with TTL per the defaults documented in Clarifications (30d arXiv, 7d HTTP HEAD, 90d DOI). `--no-cache` flag bypasses cache. +- **FR-012**: System MUST test the librarian on at least one project per default field (biology, chemistry, computer science, materials science, neuroscience, physics, psychology, statistics) drawn from existing brainstormed projects. Each test produces a verdict row in the diagnostic report's cross-domain coverage table. +- **FR-013**: System MUST re-run `flesh_out` and `research_question_validator` in place on the spec-004 carry-forward canonicals (PROJ-261-evaluating-... and PROJ-262-predicting-...) under librarian-backed lit search. The re-run uses the in-place iteration convention from spec 004 (no sibling-iter directories); each step is a git commit on the feature branch. +- **FR-014**: System MUST capture the diagnostic findings in `notes/2026-05-NN-spec-005-librarian-diagnostic.md` (date stamp filled at completion), mirroring spec 003 + spec 004's 8-section structure, with verbatim quotes of librarian outputs + idea-body diffs + run-log entries + defect tables. +- **FR-015**: For each CRITICAL or HIGH defect identified, system MUST either (a) apply a fix in this PR with an "After fix" report section quoting corrected behavior, or (b) defer to a follow-up GitHub issue with rationale. +- **FR-016**: System MUST never advance state silently when the librarian fails — empty result with no documented reason, partial results without the partial flag, or run-log entries missing populated `failure_reason` are CRITICAL defects (Constitution Principle V). +- **FR-017**: System MUST commit all real-project artifacts produced (re-fleshed canonicals' idea/<slug>.md, librarian-cache entries that document the reproducible search trail, run-log entries, state YAMLs). +- **FR-018**: System MUST formally select the carry-forward projects to spec 006 (Phase 3) and record the selection in `specs/005-librarian-agent/carry-forward.yaml` per US6. +- **FR-019**: All fixes applied as part of this work MUST land as separate commits with messages referencing the parent issue (#107 tracking) and the report section that motivated the fix. +- **FR-020**: Iteration on the librarian's prompt at `agents/prompts/librarian.md`, the registry entry, or the implementation MUST follow the prompt-version semver policy from spec 003: MAJOR for output-contract-breaking, MINOR for behavior, PATCH for prose; bump in the same commit as the patch. +- **FR-021**: System MUST cap fix-and-re-run iterations per agent at 5 cycles (per spec 003 / 004 FR-005). Hitting the cap forces a deferral decision. +- **FR-022**: Any agent that needs literature search going forward (paper-side agents like `paper_writing`, `paper_implementer`, plus any future research-side agents) MUST call the librarian directly. New duplicative implementations are forbidden by Principle I. +- **FR-023**: The librarian's verification logic MUST be **deterministic** for a given input + cache state — re-running the same query must produce the same JSON output (modulo the `verification_log` timestamp). + +### Key Entities *(include if feature involves data)* + +- **Search term**: a short string supplied by the caller (or LLM-generated during US2 expansion). Identity: the term itself (deduplicated via case-insensitive normalization). +- **Verified citation**: a record `{primary_pointer (DOI / arXiv ID / HTTPS URL), bibliographic_info (title, authors, venue, year), summary, verification_log}` where every claim is verified against the primary source. Failure on any check ⇒ excluded. +- **Search trail**: a structured record of the expansion process: original term + ranked list of expanded alternatives + per-term hit count + cumulative verified-citation list. Persisted in (a) the run-log JSONL entry and (b) the calling project's `idea/<slug>.md` `## Search trail` subsection. +- **Librarian cache entry**: a file at `state/librarian-cache/<sha256>.json` containing the full verified-citations JSON for a normalized search term, with TTL metadata per FR-011. +- **Cross-domain test result**: a row in the diagnostic report's per-field table listing `{field, project_id, sample_term, verified_count, pass_rate, defects}`. +- **Re-validation result**: a comparison record per canonical: `{project_id, prior_verdict (from spec 003/004), new_verdict, idea_body_diff, validator_run_log, judgment ("verified" | "shifted" | "regressed")}`. +- **Carry-forward manifest**: `specs/005-librarian-agent/carry-forward.yaml` extending spec 004's schema with `librarian: {iterations: N, final_run_log_path: ...}` per project. + +## Success Criteria *(mandatory)* + +### Measurable Outcomes + +- **SC-001**: The `librarian` agent runs end-to-end against the real Dartmouth Chat backend AND real web-search backend(s) on at least 8 distinct projects covering all default fields. Zero mock/fake calls. +- **SC-002**: For every test invocation, ≥80% of returned citations pass the three verification checks (URL resolves AND title-token-overlap ≥0.7 AND summary grounded). The other ≤20% are EXCLUDED with documented reason — no false positives in the result set. +- **SC-003**: When initial search returns <5 verified citations, the multi-step expansion fires AND ≥10 distinct queries are issued AND the final list contains either 5 verified citations OR documented "exhausted" reason. Verified empirically on at least 3 of the 8 cross-domain test projects. +- **SC-004**: The diagnostic report quotes every librarian invocation made during testing (verbatim input + output + verification log) — no invocation omitted. +- **SC-005**: Both spec-004 carry-forward canonicals (PROJ-261, PROJ-262) are re-fleshed in place under librarian-backed lit search. Each new `idea/<slug>.md` contains a `## Search trail` subsection AND librarian-verified citations replace the prior citations. +- **SC-006**: `research_question_validator` is re-run on each re-fleshed canonical. The new verdict is compared to spec 003's verdict, AND any shift is documented in the diagnostic report's defects table OR explicitly accepted as evidence-driven re-evaluation. +- **SC-007**: At least one deliberate failure mode (web-search backend unreachable / DOI redirects to wrong paper / candidate paywalled) is induced and the resulting run-log entry verifies that failure paths are loud per Constitution Principle V. +- **SC-008**: For every CRITICAL or HIGH defect identified, an "After fix" report section quotes the corrected behavior OR a follow-up issue link is recorded — no defect silently dropped. +- **SC-009**: Iteration is bounded per agent (≤5 fix-and-re-run cycles) so the spec converges in finite time; if the cap is hit the residual defect is explicitly deferred. +- **SC-010**: The carry-forward manifest is concrete enough that spec 006 can read it and pick up the named projects + librarian-verified substrate without re-discovering anything. +- **SC-011**: Existing test suites (`tests/phase1/test_citation_resolver.py`, `tests/phase1/test_idempotency.py`, `tests/phase1/test_project_id_lock.py`, `tests/real_call/`) continue to pass after the librarian is wired into `flesh_out` + `reference_validator` + the citation resolver. No regression in any spec-003 or spec-004 test. +- **SC-012**: The librarian's verification is deterministic for a fixed cache state — re-invoking with the same term + context produces identical citation lists (modulo timestamp). + +## Assumptions + +- The Dartmouth Chat backend (`DARTMOUTH_CHAT_API_KEY` in `~/.config/llmxive/credentials.toml`) is reachable; if not, the test surfaces that as a transient failure and stops, no mock fallback. +- A Semantic Scholar API key (`SEMANTIC_SCHOLAR_API_KEY` env var OR `semantic_scholar_api_key` field in the same credentials file) is installed before the librarian's real-search tests run. Free key obtained via the form linked in Semantic Scholar's 429 response. Tests that require the key are marked `@pytest.mark.skipif(not has_semantic_scholar_key, reason="...")` so they pass-or-skip cleanly when the key is missing; CI fails the spec only when the key IS available and the tests still fail. +- The carry-forward manifest from spec 004 (`specs/004-phase2-project-bootstrap-testing/carry-forward.yaml`) is authoritative; PROJ-261 + PROJ-262 remain valid carry-forward inputs. +- The cron-driven brainstormed cohort already in `projects/` covers all 8 default fields with at least 1 project each. (Verified during preflight; if a field is missing, US4 picks the closest neighbor and notes the gap.) +- Existing project numbering is unique post the spec-004 PR-#109 fix (Q1B file lock + Q3A duplicate rename). This spec inherits that fix. +- The new in-place iteration convention from spec 004 applies — no `-iterN` sibling directories. Each iteration is a git commit on the feature branch. +- Real web-search calls cost time but not money on the maintainer's home connection. Cache mitigates repeat runs. +- Librarian cache files (`state/librarian-cache/*.json`) are committed to git so the diagnostic is reproducible from any checkout. +- The diagnostic report file path is `notes/2026-05-NN-spec-005-librarian-diagnostic.md`, with the actual date filled in at completion. +- The carry-forward manifest path is `specs/005-librarian-agent/carry-forward.yaml`; spec 006 (Phase 3 testing) and beyond reference it. +- A maintainer (human in the loop) renders the final per-citation judgment on a sample (≥10% of returned citations) — automated verification handles the bulk, but spot-checks are the trust signal. + +## Open design questions (for `/speckit-clarify`) + +The 5 design questions from the outline note. Three highest-impact are flagged as `[NEEDS CLARIFICATION]` markers per spec-kit policy; the other two have reasonable defaults applied and are noted in Clarifications: + +1. ~~Web-search backend choice~~ → **Resolved Q1**: Semantic Scholar API + arXiv API only (see Clarifications section). +2. ~~Verification depth — PDF or abstract~~ → **Resolved Q2**: Adaptive — abstract for bulk, ≥10% PDF sample for grounding audit (see Clarifications section). +3. ~~Expansion-exhausted failure mode~~ → **Resolved Q3**: Return partial list + `outcome: "exhausted"`; caller decides (see Clarifications section). diff --git a/specs/005-librarian-agent/tasks.md b/specs/005-librarian-agent/tasks.md new file mode 100644 index 00000000..55b67cea --- /dev/null +++ b/specs/005-librarian-agent/tasks.md @@ -0,0 +1,306 @@ +--- + +description: "Task list for spec 005 — Librarian Agent + Phase 1 re-validation" +--- + +# Tasks: Librarian Agent + Phase 1 Re-Validation + +**Input**: Design documents from `specs/005-librarian-agent/` +**Prerequisites**: plan.md, spec.md, research.md, data-model.md, contracts/, quickstart.md + +**Tests**: Yes — pytest unit tests for each librarian sub-module are required by FR-001/004/011 + cross-domain tests (US4) + re-validation orchestration tests (US3).

At least 3 of the 8 fields MUST fire expansion.

skip-marked. Token bucket + thread-safety + dedup all covered. - tests/phase2/test_librarian_verify.py: 11 tests of the canonical 3-check verification helper (URL resolves + title-token-overlap + summary-grounded). Includes a real Vaswani-paper integration test + Jaccard tokenization edge cases. - tests/phase2/test_librarian_cache.py: 14 tests (TTL, prompt-version invalidation, deterministic-hit-on-same-state per SC-012, normalize_term edge cases). All real disk via tmp_path. - tests/phase2/test_librarian_pdf_sample.py: 14 tests including a real Vaswani PDF download + pypdf extraction. Sample-size formula, annotate_with_pdf_sample, paywall-handling all verified. T017 manual smoke: LibrarianAgent.invoke() end-to-end on "attention is all you need transformers" returned 20 verified citations in 11s with PDF samples + correct cache_status. Bug found + fixed: verify._fetch_title_and_abstract was returning the candidate's own claimed_title/claimed_abstract for the title-overlap check, making it a tautological self-comparison. Real impl now re-fetches title + abstract from arXiv API for arXiv candidates (DOI candidates trust the SS Graph API's already-canonical metadata). test_title_mismatch_fails caught this; fix verified by all tests passing. Total: 80/80 tests pass (23 spec-003+004 + 7 credentials + 50 new librarian). No regression.

Backend unreachable, invalid SS key, title mismatch, paywalled PDF. All produce structured failure records, not silent empty results. Two real bugs found + fixed: - ArxivClient.search() silently swallowed arxiv-library 429 HTTPError as zero results, masking burst-load rate-limiting. Now backs off 15s/30s/60s up to 3 attempts; surfaces final 429 via stderr diagnostic. Default min_interval_seconds bumped 3.0s → 5.0s for safety margin. - librarian.LibrarianAgent.invoke() returned an empty verified_citations list on cache hits because _result_from_dict was a stub. Re-hydrates VerifiedCitation + VerificationFailure dataclasses from the cached JSON; re-running with cache produces identical results to a fresh miss (SC-012 / FR-023 determinism). Total: 116/116 tests pass (23 spec-003+004 + 7 credentials + 50 librarian core + 24 US2 + 8 US4 + 4 induced-failure). 2 minutes runtime. No regression.

After adjusting political alignment for demographic effects, lifestyle politics decreased by 27.36% toward the political \"center\" and demographically confounded interests were no longer among the most polarized interests. Instead, after demographic deconfounding, we found that the most liberal interests included electric cars, Planned Parenthood, and liberal satire while the most conservative interests included the Republican Party and conservative commentators. We validate our measures of political alignment and lifestyle politics using the General Social Survey and find similar demographic entanglements with lifestyle politics existed before social media such as Facebook were ubiquitous, giving us strong confidence that our results are not due to echo chambers or filter bubbles. Likewise, since demographic characteristics exist prior to ideological values, we argue that the demographic confounding we observe is causally responsible for the extreme instances of lifestyle politics that we find among the aggregated interests.

We here present a series of re-analyses of their original data which demonstrate a significant loss of microbial taxa even after the complete study period of 180 days. Additionally we show that the composition of the microbiomes after the complete study period only moderately correlates with the initial baseline states. Taken together with the lack of significant compositional differences between day 42 and day 180, we think that these findings suggest the convergence of the microbiomes to another stable composition, which is different from the pre-treatment states, instead of a recovery of the baseline state.

One focus is to assess the association between certain clinical outcomes and the relative abundances of gut microbes, which can be presented as sub-compositional data in conformity with the taxonomic hierarchy of bacteria. Motivated by a study for identifying the microbes in the gut microbiome of preterm infants that impact their later neurobehavioral outcomes, we formulate a constrained integrative multi-view regression, where the neurobehavioral scores form multivariate response, the sub-compositional microbiome data form multi-view feature matrices, and a set of linear constraints on their corresponding sub-coefficient matrices ensures the conformity to the simplex geometry.

It is hypothesized that stressful early life experience of very preterm neonate is imprinting gut microbiome by the regulation of the so-called brain-gut axis, and consequently, certain microbiome markers are predictive of later infant neurodevelopment. To investigate, a preterm infant study was conducted; infant fecal samples were collected during the infants' first month of postnatal age, resulting in functional compositional microbiome data, and neurobehavioral outcomes were measured when infants reached 36-38 weeks of post-menstrual age. To identify potential microbiome markers and estimate how the trajectories of gut microbiome compositions during early postnatal stage impact later neurobehavioral outcomes of the preterm infants, we innovate a sparse log-contrast regression with functional compositional predictors. The functional simplex structure is strictly preserved, and the functional compositional predictors are allowed to have sparse, smoothly varying, and accumulating effects on the outcome through time. Through a pragmatic basis expansion step, the problem boils down to a linearly constrained sparse group regression, for which we develop an efficient algorithm and obtain theoretical performance guarantees.

By investigating their usefulness as molecular similarity descriptors, we gain new insights in how and why Coulomb matrix and SOAP work. Moreover, Coulomb lists avoid the somewhat mysterious diagonalization step of the Coulomb matrix and might provide a direct means to extract subsystem information that can be compared across Born-Oppenheimer surfaces of varying dimension. For the electron density we derive the necessary formalism to create the SOED measure in close analogy to SOAP. Since this formalism is more involved than that of SOAP, we review the essential theory, but also introduce a set of approximations that eventually allow us to work with SOED in terms of the same implementation available for the evaluation of SOAP.

Conventional machine-learning-based optimization approaches typically require large datasets to construct accurate surrogate models, limiting their applicability in data-scarce settings. In this study, we present a Bayesian optimization (BO) framework that identifies optimal molecular structures with high precision using fewer than 2,000 training data points within a chemical subspace containing more than 133,000 molecules. The framework employs a low-dimensional and physics-informed molecular descriptor vector that facilitates data-efficient surrogate modelling and optimization. A key innovation of the proposed framework is a reliable inverse mapping scheme that translates optimized points in the descriptor space back into chemically valid molecular structures, thereby bridging continuous optimization and discrete molecular design.

The effect of these impurities at the atomic scale can either embrittle or strengthen grain boundaries within. Thus, it is imperative to understand the energetics associated with segregation to design materials with desirable properties. Here, molecular statics simulations were employed to analyze the energetics associated with the segregation of various elements (He, H, C, P, and V) to four <100> (Sigma 5 and 13 GBs) and six <110> (Sigma 3,9,and 11 GBs) symmetric tilt grain boundaries in alpha-Fe. This knowledge is important for designing stable interfaces in harsh environments. Simulation results show that the local atomic arrangements within the GB region and the resulting structural units have a significant influence on the magnitude of binding energies of the impurity (interstitial and substitutional) atoms. This data also suggests that the site-to-site variation of energies within a boundary is substantial. Comparing the binding energies of all ten boundaries shows that the Sigma 3(112) boundary possesses a much smaller binding energy for all interstitial and substitutional impurity atoms among the boundaries examined here. Additionally, based on the Rice-Wang model, our total energy calculations show that V has a significant beneficial effect on the Fe grain boundary cohesion, while P has a detrimental effect on grain boundary cohesion, much weaker than H and He.

No significant change in the grain size or structure is observed upon Zr dopant addition to a pure Cu polycrystal at moderate temperature, where grain boundary segregation is the dominant behavior. Segregation within the boundary network is inhomogeneous, with some boundaries having local concentrations that are an order of magnitude larger than the global value and others having almost no segregation, and changes to physical parameters such as boundary free volume and energy are found to correlate with dopant concentration.

In this study, multiple dopant atoms in ternary Al alloys are deliberately selected to enable segregation to the grain boundary region and promote the formation of amorphous complexions. Three different fully dense bulk nanocrystalline Al alloys (Al-Mg-Y, Al-Fe-Y, and Al-Ni-Y) with small grain sizes were successfully fabricated using a simple powder metallurgy approach, with full densification connected directly to the onset of amorphous complexion formation.

The very fine grain structure results in excellent mechanical properties, with nanoindentation hardness values in the range of 2.2-2.8 GPa. Detailed microstructural characterization verifies the segregation of all dopant species to grain boundaries as well as the formation of amorphous complexions, which suggests their influential role in aiding effective consolidation and endowing thermal stability in the alloys. Moreover, nanorods with a core-shell structure are also observed at the grain boundaries, which likely contribute to the stabilization of the grain structure and high strength.

Despite their promising capabilities, the lack of transparency in AI models poses significant challenges, particularly in medical contexts where reliability is a mandatory aspect. However, it appears that explainability is inversely proportional to accuracy. For this reason, achieving transparency without compromising predictive accuracy remains a key challenge.\n\n\nMETHODS\nThis paper presents a novel method, namely Rad4XCNN, to enhance the predictive power of CNN-derived features with the inherent interpretability of radiomic features. Rad4XCNN diverges from conventional methods based on saliency maps, by associating intelligible meaning to CNN-derived features by means of Radiomics, offering new perspectives on explanation methods beyond visualization maps.\n\n\nRESULTS\nUsing a breast cancer classification task as a case study, we evaluated Rad4XCNN on ultrasound imaging datasets, including an online dataset and two in-house datasets for internal and external validation. Some key results are: (i) CNN-derived features guarantee more robust accuracy when compared against ViT-derived and radiomic features; (ii) conventional visualization map methods for explanation present several pitfalls; (iii) Rad4XCNN does not sacrifice model accuracy for their explainability; (iv) Rad4XCNN provides a global explanation enabling the physician to extract global insights and findings.\n\n\nCONCLUSIONS\nOur method can mitigate some concerns related to the explainability-accuracy trade-off.

This retrospective analysis utilized data from a single eye of each patient, with preoperative biometric measurements obtained using the IOL Master 700. The study considered established formulas such as Haigis, Hoffer Q, Holladay 1, Holladay 2, and SRK/T, as well as modern formulas including Barrett Universal II, Cooke K6, EVO 2.0, Hill-RBF, Hoffer QST, Kane, Olsen, and PEARL-DGS.

Methods We analyzed 241 eyes of 241 patients.

Optical biometry was performed with an IOLMaster 700 (Carl Zeiss Meditec, Jena, Germany). With lens constants optimized for the whole range of AL, the mean prediction error (PE) and its standard deviation (SD), the median absolute error (MedAE), the mean absolute error (MAE) and the percentage of eyes with PEs within ±0.25 D, ±0.50 D and <±1.00 D were calculated. Results Post-hoc analysis of the absolute PE revealed statistically significant differences (P < .05) between some of the newer formulas (K6, Kane, Naeser 2, Olsen and VRF-G), which obtained the lowest MedAE (respectively, 0.308, 0.300, 0.277, 0.310 and 0.276 D) and the remaining ones. These formulas yielded also the highest percentage of eyes with a PE within ±0.50 D (70.54%, 72.20%, 71.37%, 70.95% and 73.03%, respectively), whereas Panacea and SRK/T yielded the lowest percentage (62.24%), with a stastically significant difference (P < .05) with respect to most formulas.

The absolute prediction error (APE) of spherical equivalent (SE) and cylinder (CYL) was calculated based on K and TK (including posterior corneal surface) data recorded 6 weeks after IOL implantation. APE was calculated as the difference between the postoperative refraction and the refractive error predicted by three classic IOL calculation methods (Haigis/Haigis-T, Barrett Universal II, Barrett Toric Calculator) and two new formulas developed for TK (Barrett TK Universal II, Barrett TK Toric). For APE in SE, the Haigis-T (K versus TK) and Barrett Universal II (K) versus Barrett TK Universal II (TK) were compared. For APE in CYL, the Haigis-T (K versus TK) and Barrett Toric Calculator (K) versus Barrett TK Toric formula (TK) were compared.\n\n\nRESULTS\nMean APE in SE and CYL was lower based on TK values compared to K, with a mean APE difference (K - TK) of 0.011 ± 0.107 diopters (D) (SE Haigis-T; 95% confidence interval [CI]: -0.004 to infinity), 0.016 ± 0.113 D (SE: Barrett Universal II versus Barrett TK Universal II; 95% CI: 0.0005 to infinity), 0.103 ± 0.173 D (CYL: Haigis-T; 95% CI: 0.0791 to infinity), and 0.020 ± 0.148 D (CYL: Barrett Toric versus Barrett TK Toric; 95% CI: -0.0002 to infinity). APE in SE was within ±0.50 D in 86% (Barrett TK Universal II) versus 84% (Barrett Universal II) of eyes. APE in CYL was within ±0.50 D in 58% (Haigis from TK) versus 44% (Haigis from K) of eyes.\n\n\nCONCLUSIONS\nIn comparison to standard K, a higher prediction accuracy can be expected by using TK values along with the two newly developed formulas. TK values are compatible with standard IOL power calculation formulas and existing optimized IOL constants.

Two academic otolaryngologists and two LLMs independently evaluated each case. All LLMs operated in deterministic mode (temperature = 0) with standardized single-pass prompting in isolated sessions. Diagnostic accuracy, inter-rater agreement (Cohen’s κ), and subspecialty-specific performance were analyzed. A post hoc power analysis (Cohen’s h = 0.22; α = 0.05) assessed the ability to detect moderate effect sizes.Results: Both LLMs achieved a diagnostic accuracy of 90.0% (63/70), with no significant difference between them (p = 1.00) and substantial inter-model agreement (κ = 0.68). Human evaluators achieved accuracies of 97.1% and 92.9%, with fair inter-rater agreement (κ = 0.26).

To address these challenges, we argue that post-hoc attribution can be reframed as a reasoning problem, where answers are decomposed into constituent units, each tied to specific context. We first show that prompting models to generate such decompositions alongside attributions improves performance. Building on this, we introduce DecompTune, a post-training method that teaches models to produce answer decompositions as intermediate reasoning steps. We curate a diverse dataset of complex QA tasks, annotated with decompositions by a strong LLM, and post-train Qwen-2.5 (7B and 14B) using a two-stage SFT + GRPO pipeline with task-specific curated rewards.

The literature on affective priming has mostly focused on brief influences of emotional stimuli and emotional states on perceptual and cognitive processes. Yet this approach does not fully capture more dynamic processes at the root of emotional states, with such states lingering beyond the duration of the inducing external stimuli. Our goal was to put in perspective three different types of affective states (induced affective states, more sustained mood states and affective traits such as depression and anxiety) and investigate how they may interact and influence emotion perception. Here, we hypothesized that absorption into positive and negative emotional episodes generate sustained affective states that outlast the episode period and bias the interpretation of facial expressions in a perceptual decision-making task. We also investigated how such effects are influenced by more sustained mood states and by individual affect traits (depression and anxiety) and whether they interact. Transient emotional states were induced using movie-clips, after which participants performed a forced-choice emotion classification task with morphed facial expressions ranging from fear to happiness. Using a psychometric approach, we show that negative (vs. neutral) clips increased participants’ propensity to classify ambiguous faces as fearful during several minutes. In contrast, positive movies biased classification toward happiness only for those clips perceived as most absorbing. Negative mood, anxiety and depression had a stronger effect than transient states and increased the propensity to classify ambiguous faces as fearful.

The goal of the paper is to extract interpretable hierarchical patterns using correlation matrices where a low rank decomposition is formed by a linear combination of a high rank decomposition. We formulate the decomposition as a non-convex optimization problem and solve it using gradient descent algorithms with adaptive step size. We also provide a method for the warm start of the gradient descent using singular value decomposition. We demonstrate the effectiveness of the developed method on two different real-world datasets by showing that multi-scale hierarchical SCPs are reproducible between sub-samples and are more reproducible as compared to single scale patterns.

In our model, each brain region in the HC is assumed to have a binary behavior (active or not), the strength of interactions among them is encoded in the anatomical connectivity matrix defined by the HC, and the dynamics of the system is defined by a neural message-passing algorithm, Belief Propagation (BP), working near the critical point of the human connectome. We show that in the absence of direct external stimuli the BP algorithm converges to a spatial map of activations that is similar to the DMN. Moreover, we computed, using Susceptibility Propagation (SP), the matrix of correlations between the different regions and show that the modules defined by a clustering of this matrix resemble several Resting States Networks determined experimentally. Both results suggest that the functional DMN and RSNs can be seen as simple consequences of the anatomical structure of the brain and a neural message-passing dynamics between macroscopic regions. We then show preliminary results indicating our predictions on how functional DMN maps change when the anatomical brain network suffers structural anomalies, like in Alzheimers Disease and in lesions of the Corpus Callosum.", + "claimed_authors": [ + "Julio A.

A lot of evidences implying fractal properties such as 1/f power spectrums have been also observed in resting state fMRI time series. To explain the fractal behavior in rs-fMRI, we have proposed the fractal-based model of resting state hemodynamic response function (rs-HRF) whose properties can be summarized by a fractal exponent. Here we show, through a simulation studies, that the fractal behavior of cerebral hemodynamics may cause significant distortion of network properties between neuronal activities and BOLD signals. We simulated neuronal population activities based on the stochastic neural field model from the Macaque brain network, and then obtained their corresponding BOLD signals by convolving them with the rs-HRF filter. The precision of centrality estimated in each node was deteriorated overall in three networks based on transfer entropy, mutual information, and Pearson correlation; particularly the distortion of transfer entropy was more sensitive to the standard deviation of fractal exponents. A node with high centrality was resilient to desynchronized fractal dynamics over all frequencies while a node with small centrality exhibited huge distortion of both wavelet correlation and centrality over low frequencies. This theoretical expectation indicates that the difference of fractal exponents between brain regions leads to discrepancy of statistical network properties, especially at nodes with small centrality, between neuronal activities and BOLD signals, and that the traditional definitions of resting state functional connectivity may not effectively reflect the dynamics of spontaneous neuronal activities.", + "summary_grounded_pdf": false, + "verification_log": { + "final_url": "https://arxiv.org/abs/1208.0924", + "http_status": 200, + "pdf_sample_score": null, + "redirect_chain": [], + "summary_grounding_score": 1.0, + "title_token_overlap_score": 1.0, + "url_resolves": true, + "verified_at": "2026-05-06T21:34:15Z" + } + }, + { + "bibliographic_info": { + "authors": [ + "D.

Here we investigate the hierarchical modular (or \"modules-within-modules\") decomposition of human brain functional networks, measured using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) in 18 healthy volunteers under no-task or resting conditions. We used a customized template to extract networks with more than 1800 regional nodes, and we applied a fast algorithm to identify nested modular structure at several hierarchical levels. We used mutual information, 0 < I < 1, to estimate the similarity of community structure of networks in different subjects, and to identify the individual network that is most representative of the group. Results show that human brain functional networks have a hierarchical modular organization with a fair degree of similarity between subjects, I=0.63. The largest 5 modules at the highest level of the hierarchy were medial occipital, lateral occipital, central, parieto-frontal and fronto-temporal systems; occipital modules demonstrated less sub-modular organization than modules comprising regions of multimodal association cortex. Connector nodes and hubs, with a key role in inter-modular connectivity, were also concentrated in association cortical areas. We conclude that methods are available for hierarchical modular decomposition of large numbers of high resolution brain functional networks using computationally expedient algorithms.

Many studies of conditions such as stroke, limb amputation, and vision loss have examined how removal of input changes brain function. However, an important question yet to be answered is: when input is lost, does the brain change its connectivity to preferentially use some remaining inputs over others? In individuals with healthy vision, the central portion of the retina is preferentially used for everyday visual tasks, due to its ability to discriminate fine details. When central vision is lost in conditions like macular degeneration, peripheral vision must be relied upon for those everyday tasks, with some portions receiving “preferential” usage over others. Using resting‐state fMRI collected during total darkness, we examined how deprivation and preferential usage influence the intrinsic functional connectivity of sensory cortex by studying individuals with selective vision loss due to late stages of macular degeneration. Specifically, we examined functional connectivity between category‐selective visual areas and the cortical representation of three areas of the retina: the lesioned area, a preferentially used region of the intact retina, and a non‐preferentially used region. We found that cortical regions representing spared portions of the peripheral retina, regardless of whether they are preferentially used, exhibit plasticity of intrinsic functional connectivity in macular degeneration. Cortical representations of spared peripheral retinal locations showed stronger connectivity to MT, a region involved in processing motion. These results suggest that the long‐term loss of central vision can produce widespread effects throughout spared representations in early visual cortex, regardless of whether those representations are preferentially used. These findings support the idea that connections to visual cortex maintain the capacity for change well after critical periods of visual development.", + "summary_grounded_pdf": null, + "verification_log": { + "final_url": "https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/hbm.70064", + "http_status": 403, + "pdf_sample_score": null, + "redirect_chain": [ + "https://doi.org/10.1002/hbm.70064" + ], + "summary_grounding_score": 1.0, + "title_token_overlap_score": 1.0, + "url_resolves": true, + "verified_at": "2026-05-06T21:38:07Z" + } + }, + { + "bibliographic_info": { + "authors": [ + "L.

When cognitive impairment reaches a certain level, human errors occur and may even result in accidents. Previous research has shown that sensory gating is a basic mechanism in cognitive function, but only limited studies have so far reported how it is affected by sleep deprivation. This study aimed to analyze the effects of sleep deprivation on sensory gating and its cognitive and neural mechanisms. Thirty-six healthy subjects participated in our study. The resting-state, auditory P50-task electroencephalography (EEG) recordings and the psychomotor vigilance task (PVT) were performed at resting wakefulness (RW) and after 36 h of total sleep deprivation (TSD). Changes in P50 suppression before and after sleep deprivation were recorded, and the isolated effective coherence (iCoh) was employed for analyzing effective connectivity based on EEG data during the resting-state and P50 tasks. Subjects demonstrated reduced P50 suppression and prolonged PVT reaction time after TSD compared with RW. Effective connectivity analysis of resting-state EEG data showed that sleep deprivation decreased the connectivity from the right middle occipital gyrus (RMOG)/Rcuneus to left inferior/middle temporal gyrus (LITG/LMTG) and left parahippocampal/fusiform gyrus (LPH/LFG). EEG data analysis during the P50 task showed that, in addition to the aforementioned connectivity changes, the directed high-frequency effective connectivity from the left precuneus to the left superior/middle frontal gyrus (LSFG/LMFG), LITG/LMTG, LPH/LFG, and left middle occipital gyrus (LMOG)/Lcuneus increased. P50 suppression in Cz positively correlated with PVT reaction time. This study reveals that the precuneus is a key brain region in neural network correlates of sensory gating, and that changes in its effective connectivity with other regions (including LSFG/LMFG, LPH/LFG, LMOG/LCuneus, and LITG/LMTG) are important for decreasing sensory gating after TSD.", + "summary_grounded_pdf": false, + "verification_log": { + "final_url": "https://linkinghub.elsevier.com/retrieve/pii/S105381191930343X", + "http_status": 200, + "pdf_sample_score": null, + "redirect_chain": [ + "https://doi.org/10.1016/j.neuroimage.2019.04.057" + ], + "summary_grounding_score": 1.0, + "title_token_overlap_score": 1.0, + "url_resolves": true, + "verified_at": "2026-05-06T21:38:10Z" + } + } + ] + }, + "target_n": 5, + "term_normalized": "how does the intrinsic organization of human brain functional networks change when sensory input is experimentally reduced, and does this reorganization manifest as altered modularity and global efficiency in resting-state fmri", + "ttls": { + "arxiv": 2592000, + "doi_bib": 7776000, + "http_head": 604800 + } +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/state/librarian-cache/b1a07ffca8ffd85d78e12c60f6609448becdd81522a7d86592d687afe2a8a6b6.json b/state/librarian-cache/b1a07ffca8ffd85d78e12c60f6609448becdd81522a7d86592d687afe2a8a6b6.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..5afc7b2e --- /dev/null +++ b/state/librarian-cache/b1a07ffca8ffd85d78e12c60f6609448becdd81522a7d86592d687afe2a8a6b6.json @@ -0,0 +1,395 @@ +{ + "fetched_at": "2026-05-06T21:33:42Z", + "field": "computer science", + "prompt_version": "1.0.0", + "result": { + "cache_status": "miss", + "context": { + "field": "computer science", + "idea_body_excerpt": "---\nfield: computer science\nsubmitter: google.gemma-3-27b-it\n---\n\n# Investigating the Effectiveness of Different Loss Functions for Training Graph Neural Networks on Small Worlds\n\n**Field**: computer science\n\n## Research question\n\nHow does the clustering coefficient of small-world graphs influence the relative convergence efficiency of supervised versus contrastive loss functions in Graph Neural Networks?\n\n## Motivation\n\nSmall-world networks are ubiquitous in social, biological, and recommendation systems, yet GNN training protocols rarely account for specific topological properties during loss selection.

Graph neural network (GNN), which can effectively exploit the underlying network topology, have emerged as powerful tools for learning effective allocation policies. However, GNN operations can induce significant front-haul traffic between access points (APs) and the central processing unit, creating a critical bottleneck in scalable cell-free deployments. This work investigates the impact of edge pruning—a technique designed to reduce GNN computational complexity and, crucially, mitigate front-haul communication overhead on resource allocation performance. We comprehensively evaluate the performance of pruned GNNs on the energy efficiency (EE), exploring the fundamental trade-offs between GNN sparsity, computational efficiency, front-haul load reduction, and network performance. Our results demonstrate that substantial front-haul overhead mitigation can be achieved through strategic pruning with negligible degradation in allocation performance, thereby enabling the deployment of lightweight, front-haul-aware GNN-based resource allocation solutions that are essential for practical distributed cell-free system implementations.", + "summary_grounded_pdf": false, + "verification_log": { + "final_url": "https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/document/11443701/", + "http_status": 200, + "pdf_sample_score": null, + "redirect_chain": [ + "https://doi.org/10.1109/IEEECONF67917.2025.11443701" + ], + "summary_grounding_score": 1.0, + "title_token_overlap_score": 1.0, + "url_resolves": true, + "verified_at": "2026-05-06T21:33:39Z" + } + }, + { + "bibliographic_info": { + "authors": [ + "Zangir Iklassov", + "Dmitrii Medvedev" + ], + "title": "Robust Reinforcement Learning on Graphs for Logistics optimization", + "venue": "arXiv", + "year": 2022 + }, + "primary_pointer": "2205.12888", + "summary": "Logistics optimization nowadays is becoming one of the hottest areas in the AI community.

In this Perspective, we survey the developments in this rapidly moving field, and give an outlook of its impact on materials science and applications.", + "summary_grounded_pdf": false, + "verification_log": { + "final_url": "https://arxiv.org/abs/2208.05082", + "http_status": 200, + "pdf_sample_score": null, + "redirect_chain": [], + "summary_grounding_score": 1.0, + "title_token_overlap_score": 1.0, + "url_resolves": true, + "verified_at": "2026-05-06T21:46:11Z" + } + }, + { + "bibliographic_info": { + "authors": [ + "Arabinda Bera", + "Alessio Zaccone", + "Matteo Baggioli" + ], + "title": "Hedgehog topological defects in 3D amorphous solids", + "venue": "arXiv", + "year": 2024 + }, + "primary_pointer": "2407.20631", + "summary": "The underlying structural disorder renders the concept of topological defects in amorphous solids difficult to apply and hinders a first-principle identification of the microscopic carriers of plasticity and of the regions more prone to structural rearrangements (``soft spots''). Recently, it has been proposed that well-defined topological defects can still be identified in glasses, and correlated to local and global plasticity, by looking at the eigenvector field or the particle displacement field. Nevertheless, all the existing proposals and analyses are only valid in two spatial dimensions. In this work, we propose the idea of using hedgehog topological defects to characterize the plasticity of 3D glasses and to geometrically predict the location of their soft spots. We corroborate our proposal by simulating a Kremer-Grest 3D polymer glass, and by using both the normal mode eigenvector field and the displacement field around large plastic events. Contrary to the 2D case, the sign of the topological charge defined from the eigenvector field is ambiguous and the geometry of the topological defects, whether radial or hyperbolic, plays a fundamental role in 3D. In fact, we find that the topological hedgehog defects relevant for plasticity are those exhibiting hyperbolic geometry, resembling the saddle-point structure of 2D topological defects with negative winding number (anti-vortices). Our results confirm that a topological characterization of plasticity in glasses is feasible and provide a concrete realization of this program in 3D amorphous systems.", + "summary_grounded_pdf": false, + "verification_log": { + "final_url": "https://arxiv.org/abs/2407.20631", + "http_status": 200, + "pdf_sample_score": 0.3077, + "redirect_chain": [], + "summary_grounding_score": 1.0, + "title_token_overlap_score": 1.0, + "url_resolves": true, + "verified_at": "2026-05-06T21:46:11Z" + } + }, + { + "bibliographic_info": { + "authors": [ + "Albert Stebbins", + "Scott Dodelson" + ], + "title": "On the Computation of CMBR Anisotropies from Simulations of Topological Defects", + "venue": "arXiv", + "year": 1997 + }, + "primary_pointer": "astro-ph/9705177", + "summary": "Techniques for computing the CMBR anisotropy from simulations of topological defects are discussed with an eye to getting as much information from a simulation as possible.

These alone, however, are not sufficient for obtaining a good fit to the measured shape of the angular power spectrum.

The legacy ``Paper`` dataclass is preserved (so flesh_out's call site at idea_lifecycle.py:173 continues to work without modification). The ``lit_search()`` function body now delegates to ``LibrarianAgent.invoke()`` and adapts the librarian's ``VerifiedCitation`` records into the legacy ``Paper`` shape via ``_verified_citations_to_papers()``. Emits a DeprecationWarning when called. Verified end-to-end: lit_search('transformer attention') returns 9 Paper records via the librarian path. T033 — agents/tools/citation_fetcher.py: SOFT-DEPRECATED with banner pointing readers to the librarian. The reference_validator agent that consumes its ``FetchResult``/``VerificationStatus`` shape was NOT migrated in this PR; the adapter is non-trivial and was deferred per FR-014/15 to keep spec 005's blast radius contained. Banner explicitly forbids ADDING new callers (FR-022 enforced by T070a CI check, landing in Phase 10). T035 — tests/phase1/citation_resolver.py: SOFT-DEPRECATED with same pattern. Spec 003's tests + runbooks reference its specific record shapes; full migration deferred to follow-up. T036 regression: 116/116 tests pass; flesh_out's lit_search call still works (now via librarian); spec 003 + spec 004 test suites unaffected. The deferral pattern (banner + delegate where cheap, banner-only where the adapter is risky) is the standard "soft deprecation" approach and matches the strategy described in the spec-005 quickstart.md Step 3. The follow-up issue will complete the migration of citation_fetcher + citation_resolver to direct librarian calls; in the meantime, FR-022's CI guardrail prevents new duplicates from being introduced.

Furthermore, Transformers encounters a computational limitation: quadratic complexity growth with sequence length. Motivated by these limitations, we aim to design architectures that leverage efficient working memory dynamics to overcome standard computational barriers. We introduce Echo State Transformers (EST), a hybrid architecture that resolves this challenge while demonstrating state of the art performance in classification and detection tasks. EST integrates the Transformer attention mechanisms with nodes from Reservoir Computing to create a fixed-size memory system. Drawing inspiration from Echo State Networks, our approach leverages several reservoirs (random recurrent networks) in parallel as a lightweight and efficient working memory. These independent units possess distinct and learned internal dynamics with an adaptive leak rate, enabling them to dynamically adjust their own temporality. By applying attention on those fixed number of units instead of input tokens, EST achieves linear complexity for the whole sequence, effectively breaking the quadratic scaling problem of standard Transformers. We evaluate ESTs on a recent timeseries benchmark: the Time Series Library, which comprises 69 tasks across five categories. Results show that ESTs ranks first overall in two of five categories, outperforming strong state-of-the-art baselines on classification and anomaly detection tasks, while remaining competitive on short-term forecasting. These results demonstrate that by shifting the attention mechanism from the entire input sequence to a fixed set of evolving memory units, it is possible to maintains high sensitivity to temporal events while achieving constant computational complexity per step.", + "claimed_authors": [ + "Yannis Bendi-Ouis", + "X.

Challenges in adapting Transformer from language to vision arise from differences between the two domains, such as large variations in the scale of visual entities and the high resolution of pixels in images compared to words in text. To address these differences, we propose a hierarchical Transformer whose representation is computed with Shifted windows. The shifted windowing scheme brings greater efficiency by limiting self-attention computation to non-overlapping local windows while also allowing for cross-window connection. This hierarchical architecture has the flexibility to model at various scales and has linear computational complexity with respect to image size. These qualities of Swin Transformer make it compatible with a broad range of vision tasks, including image classification (87.3 top-1 accuracy on ImageNet-1K) and dense prediction tasks such as object detection (58.7 box AP and 51.1 mask AP on COCO test-dev) and semantic segmentation (53.5 mIoU on ADE20K val). Its performance surpasses the previous state-of-the-art by a large margin of +2.7 box AP and +2.6 mask AP on COCO, and +3.2 mIoU on ADE20K, demonstrating the potential of Transformer-based models as vision backbones.

Although Vision Transformer has been widely introduced in medical image segmentation to compensate the limitations of traditional CNN in modeling global context, its shortcomings in learning the fine-detailed features and the heavy computation cost also hinder its application in challenging polyp segmentation due to the various shapes and sizes of polyps, the low-intensity contrast between polyps and surrounding tissues, and the inherent real-time requirement. In this paper, we propose a multi-scale efficient transformer attention (META) mechanism for fast and high-accuracy polyp segmentation, where efficient transformer blocks are employed to generate multi-scale element-wise attentions for adaptive feature fusion in the famous U-shape encoder-decoder architecture. Specifically, our META mechanism includes two branches to capture multi-scale long-term dependencies, which are implemented via two efficient transformer blocks with different resolutions. The local branch is used to capture a relatively smaller transform attention under a relatively lower resolution, while the global branch is used to capture high-resolution transform attention. The final poly segmentation results are progressively integrated based on the META mechanism in each layer of the decoder. Extensive experiments are conducted on four polyp segmentation datasets (CVC-ClinicDB, Endoscenestill, Kvasir-SEG and ETIS-Larib) to demonstrate its advantages, consistently outperforming different competitors. While using ResNet34 as backbones, it can achieve 85.78% IoU and 92.03% Dice, 88.99% IoU and 93.85% Dice, 86.42% IoU and 91.86% Dice respectively in CVC-ClinicDB, Endoscenestill, and Kvasir-SEG, and a speed of 98 FPS at the input size of $3 \\times 512 \\times 512$ on a NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3090 card. The code is available at https://github.com/szuzzb/META-Unet. Note to Practitioners—Automatic polyp segmentation is a crucial step of polyp recognition and diagnostic of colonoscopy, which usually require both high-accuracy and real-time performance. This article proposes a novel polyp segmentation method, namely META-Unet, by modeling multi-scale attention maps effectively and efficiently based on a novel multi-scale efficient transformer attention (META) mechanism, for faster and higher-accuracy polyp segmentation. We evaluate our META-Unet on four public polyp image segmentation datasets (CVC-ClinicDB, Endoscenestill, Kvasir-SEG and ETIS-Larib). Comprehensive experimental results validate its outstanding performance with a better balance in both accuracy and inference speed.

Inspired by this, in this paper, we study how to learn multi-scale feature representations in transformer models for image classification. To this end, we propose a dual-branch transformer to com-bine image patches (i.e., tokens in a transformer) of different sizes to produce stronger image features. Our approach processes small-patch and large-patch tokens with two separate branches of different computational complexity and these tokens are then fused purely by attention multiple times to complement each other. Furthermore, to reduce computation, we develop a simple yet effective token fusion module based on cross attention, which uses a single token for each branch as a query to exchange information with other branches. Our proposed cross-attention only requires linear time for both computational and memory complexity instead of quadratic time otherwise. Extensive experiments demonstrate that our approach performs better than or on par with several concurrent works on vision transformer, in addition to efficient CNN models. For example, on the ImageNet1K dataset, with some architectural changes, our approach outperforms the recent DeiT by a large margin of 2% with a small to moderate increase in FLOPs and model parameters.

We address this by constructing \\emph{Bayesian wind tunnels} -- controlled environments where the true posterior is known in closed form and memorization is provably impossible. In these settings, small transformers reproduce Bayesian posteriors with $10^{-3}$-$10^{-4}$ bit accuracy, while capacity-matched MLPs fail by orders of magnitude, establishing a clear architectural separation. Across two tasks -- bijection elimination and Hidden Markov Model (HMM) state tracking -- we find that transformers implement Bayesian inference through a consistent geometric mechanism: residual streams serve as the belief substrate, feed-forward networks perform the posterior update, and attention provides content-addressable routing. Geometric diagnostics reveal orthogonal key bases, progressive query-key alignment, and a low-dimensional value manifold parameterized by posterior entropy.

We show that FoX outperforms the Transformer on long-context language modeling, length extrapolation, and short-context downstream tasks, while performing on par with the Transformer on long-context downstream tasks. Moreover, it is compatible with the FlashAttention algorithm and does not require any positional embeddings. Several analyses, including the needle-in-the-haystack test, show that FoX also retains the Transformer's superior long-context capabilities over recurrent sequence models such as Mamba-2, HGRN2, and DeltaNet.

To investigate this limitation in LLMs, we employed the classic color Stroop task that is widely regarded as the gold standard for testing executive control of attention. Our results revealed a typical conflict effect of better performance in terms of accuracy in the congruent condition (e.g., naming the ink color of the word RED in red) compared to the incongruent condition (e.g., naming the ink color of the word RED in blue), which is similar to human performance in short sequences. However, as sequence length increased, the performance degraded toward chance levels on the incongruent trials despite maintaining excellent performance on congruent trials and near-perfect word reading ability. These findings demonstrate that while transformer attention mechanisms can achieve human-comparable performance in smaller contexts, they are fundamentally limited in their capacity for conflict resolution across extended contexts.

However, there is limited research on the usage of LLMs for ‘non-generative’ tasks such as classification using the prompt-based paradigm. In this preliminary exploratory study, we investigated the applicability of LLMs for Code Clone Detection (CCD), a non-generative task. By building a mono-lingual and cross-lingual CCD dataset derived from CodeNet, we first investigated two different prompts using ChatGPT to detect Type-4 code clones in Java-Java and Java-Ruby pairs in a zero-shot setting. We then conducted an analysis to understand the strengths and weaknesses of ChatGPT in CCD.

However, with the gradual shift in language structure and vocabulary, NERs are plagued with distribution shifts, making them redundant or not as profitable without re-training. Re-training NERs based on Large Language Models (LLMs) from scratch over newly acquired data poses economic disadvantages. In contrast, re-training only with newly acquired data will result in Catastrophic Forgetting of previously acquired knowledge. Therefore, we propose NERDA-Con, a pipeline for training NERs with LLM bases by incorporating the concept of Elastic Weight Consolidation (EWC) into the NER fine-tuning NERDA pipeline.

SwallowCode ($\\approx$16.1 billion tokens) refines Python snippets from The-Stack-v2 through a novel four-stage pipeline: syntax validation, pylint-based style filtering, and a two-stage LLM rewriting process that enforces style conformity and transforms snippets into self-contained, algorithmically efficient examples. Unlike prior methods that rely on exclusionary filtering or limited transformations, our transform-and-retain approach refines low-quality code, maximizing data utility. SwallowMath ($\\approx$2.3 billion tokens) enhances Finemath-4+ by removing boilerplate, restoring context, and reformatting solutions into concise, step-by-step explanations. Within a fixed 50 billion token training budget, continual pre-training of Llama-3.1-8B with SwallowCode boosts pass@1 by +17.0 on HumanEval and +16.1 on HumanEval+ compared to Stack-Edu, surpassing the baseline model's code generation capabilities. Similarly, substituting SwallowMath yields +12.4 accuracy on GSM8K and +7.6 on MATH.

To bridge this gap, we conduct the first large-scale empirical study, examining five widely-used training data optimization techniques and their pairwise combinations for LLM-based code generation across three benchmarks and four LLMs. Our results show that data synthesis is the most effective technique for improving functional correctness and reducing code smells, although it performs relatively worse on code maintainability compared to data refactoring, cleaning, and selection. Regarding combinations, we find that most combinations do not further improve functional correctness but can effectively enhance code quality (code smells and maintainability). Among all combinations, data synthesis combined with data refactoring achieves the strongest overall performance. Furthermore, our fine-grained analysis reinforces these findings and provides deeper insights into how individual techniques and their combinations influence code generation effectiveness.

While reusing code fragments boosts productivity, excessive cloning poses challenges to maintenance and elevates the risk of bugs. Therefore, integrating code clone detection into the development process is crucial. The extensive code-related knowledge inherent in Large Language Models (LLMs) renders them high-potential candidates for addressing diverse software engineering challenges. However, the effectiveness of LLMs in the specific task of code clone detection requires precise evaluation. This paper proposes an innovative methodology leveraging few-shot instruction-tuned GPT-3.5 Turbo and GPT-4 to detect code clones across all types, focusing on complex clones (Type-3 and Type-4). Unlike conventional approaches confined to specific language pairs or tasks, our method employs versatile language models, showcases generalization strengths for semantic understanding, and leverages instruction tuning with few-shot inference for task-specific adaptability in code clone detection. A conversational dataset was crafted from BigCloneBench for instruction tuning, enhancing task alignment and performance. This study evaluates the proficiency of LLMs in identifying code clones, analyzing the impact of instruction tuning, and assessing the efficiency across various clone types. Experimental results demonstrate these models achieving competitive performance against existing tools for overall and complex clone detection. Integration into an Integrated Development Environment (IDE) enables real-time detection and automated refactoring, bridging the gap between theoretical advancements and practical usability.

The LLMs are mainly utilized in the prompt-based zero/few-shot paradigm to guide the model in accomplishing the task. GPT-based models are one of the popular ones studied for tasks such as code comment generation or test generation. These tasks are ‘generative’ tasks. However, there is limited research on the usage of LLMs for ‘non-generative’ tasks such as classification using the prompt-based paradigm. In this preliminary exploratory study, we investigated the applicability of LLMs for Code Clone Detection (CCD), a non-generative task. By building a mono-lingual and cross-lingual CCD dataset derived from CodeNet, we first investigated two different prompts using ChatGPT to detect Type-4 code clones in Java-Java and Java-Ruby pairs in a zero-shot setting. We then conducted an analysis to understand the strengths and weaknesses of ChatGPT in CCD. ChatGPT surpasses the baselines in cross-language CCD attaining an F1-score of 0.877 and achieves comparable performance to fully fine-tuned models for mono-lingual CCD, with an F1-score of 0.878. Also, the prompt and the difficulty level of the problems has an impact on the performance of ChatGPT.

Effective and efficient scalable clone detection, especially for diverged clones, remains challenging. Large language models (LLMs) have recently been applied to clone detection tasks. However, the rapid emergence of LLMs raises questions about optimal model selection and potential LLM-ensemble efficacy. This paper addresses the first question by identifying 76 LLMs and filtering them down to suitable candidates for large-scale clone detection. The candidates were evaluated on two public industrial datasets, BigCloneBench, and a commercial large-scale dataset. No uniformly'best-LLM'emerged, though CodeT5+110M, CuBERT and SPTCode were top-performers. Analysis of LLM-candidates suggested that smaller embedding sizes, smaller tokenizer vocabularies and tailored datasets are advantageous. On commercial large-scale dataset a top-performing CodeT5+110M achieved 39.71\\% precision: twice the precision of previously used CodeBERT.

The study investigates the impact of different bitwidth quantization levels on model performance, using metrics such as RMSE and MAE. Results show that, for physical chemistry datasets, the effectiveness of quantization is highly dependent on the model architecture.

We extensively investigate the performances of four recent DNNs (deep tensor neural network, SchNet, message passing neural network, and multilevel graph convolutional neural network) in predicting various electronic properties of an important class of OSCs, i.e., oligothiophenes (OTs), including their HOMO and LUMO energies, excited-state energies and associated transition dipole moments. We find that SchNet shows the best performance for OTs of different sizes (from bithiophene to sexithiophene), achieving average prediction errors in the range of 20-80meV compared to the results from (time-dependent) density functional theory. We show that SchNet also consistently outperforms shallow feed-forward neural networks, especially in difficult cases with large molecules or limited training data. We further show that SchNet could predict the transition dipole moment accurately, a task previously known to be difficult for feed-forward neural networks, and we ascribe the relatively large errors in transition dipole prediction seen for some OT configurations to the charge-transfer character of their excited states.

Approaches based on Deep Artificial Neural Networks (DANN) are very popular in our days. Depending on the learning task, the exact form of DANNs is determined via their multi-layer architecture, activation functions and the so-called loss function. However, for a majority of deep learning approaches based on DANNs, the kernel structure of neural signal processing remains the same, where the node response is encoded as a linear superposition of neural activity, while the non-linearity is triggered by the activation functions. In the current paper, we suggest to analyze the neural signal processing in DANNs from the point of view of homogeneous chaos theory as known from polynomial chaos expansion (PCE). From the PCE perspective, the (linear) response on each node of a DANN could be seen as a $1^{st}$ degree multi-variate polynomial of single neurons from the previous layer, i.e. linear weighted sum of monomials. From this point of view, the conventional DANN structure relies implicitly (but erroneously) on a Gaussian distribution of neural signals. Additionally, this view revels that by design DANNs do not necessarily fulfill any orthogonality or orthonormality condition for a majority of data-driven applications. Therefore, the prevailing handling of neural signals in DANNs could lead to redundant representation as any neural signal could contain some partial information from other neural signals. To tackle that challenge, we suggest to employ the data-driven generalization of PCE theory known as arbitrary polynomial chaos (aPC) to construct a corresponding multi-variate orthonormal representations on each node of a DANN to obtain Deep arbitrary polynomial chaos neural networks.", + "summary_grounded_pdf": false, + "verification_log": { + "final_url": "https://arxiv.org/abs/2306.14753", + "http_status": 200, + "pdf_sample_score": null, + "redirect_chain": [], + "summary_grounding_score": 1.0, + "title_token_overlap_score": 1.0, + "url_resolves": true, + "verified_at": "2026-05-07T02:23:22Z" + } + }, + { + "bibliographic_info": { + "authors": [ + "Danny D'Agostino", + "Ilija Ilievski", + "Christine Annette Shoemaker" + ], + "title": "Learning Active Subspaces and Discovering Important Features with Gaussian Radial Basis Functions Neural Networks", + "venue": "arXiv", + "year": 2023 + }, + "primary_pointer": "2307.05639", + "summary": "Providing a model that achieves a strong predictive performance and is simultaneously interpretable by humans is one of the most difficult challenges in machine learning research due to the conflicting nature of these two objectives. To address this challenge, we propose a modification of the radial basis function neural network model by equipping its Gaussian kernel with a learnable precision matrix. We show that precious information is contained in the spectrum of the precision matrix that can be extracted once the training of the model is completed. In particular, the eigenvectors explain the directions of maximum sensitivity of the model revealing the active subspace and suggesting potential applications for supervised dimensionality reduction. At the same time, the eigenvectors highlight the relationship in terms of absolute variation between the input and the latent variables, thereby allowing us to extract a ranking of the input variables based on their importance to the prediction task enhancing the model interpretability. We conducted numerical experiments for regression, classification, and feature selection tasks, comparing our model against popular machine learning models, the state-of-the-art deep learning-based embedding feature selection techniques, and a transformer model for tabular data. Our results demonstrate that the proposed model does not only yield an attractive prediction performance compared to the competitors but also provides meaningful and interpretable results that potentially could assist the decision-making process in real-world applications.

However, existing metapath-based models suffer from either information loss or high computation costs. To address these problems, we present a novel Metapath Context Convolution-based Heterogeneous Graph Neural Network (MECCH). MECCH leverages metapath contexts, a new kind of graph structure that facilitates lossless node information aggregation while avoiding any redundancy. Specifically, MECCH applies three novel components after feature preprocessing to extract comprehensive information from the input graph efficiently: (1) metapath context construction, (2) metapath context encoder, and (3) convolutional metapath fusion.

We additionally cross-compared Bayesian and free-energy approaches, as they are widely applied to modeling psychiatric disorders and share basic mechanisms with neural networks. Models of schizophrenia mainly focused on hallucinations and delusional thoughts using neural dysconnections or inhibitory imbalance as the predominating alteration. Models of autism rather focused on perceptual difficulties, mainly excessive attention to environment details, implemented as excessive inhibitory connections or increased sensory precision. We found an excessive tight view of the psychopathologies around one specific and simplified effect, usually constrained to the technical idiosyncrasy of the used network architecture. Recent theories and evidence on sensorimotor integration and body perception combined with modern neural network architectures could offer a broader and novel spectrum to approach these psychopathologies.

In the case of regression tasks, prediction intervals (PIs) should be provided along with the deterministic predictions of deep learning models. Such PIs are useful or \"high-quality\" as long as they are sufficiently narrow and capture most of the probability density. In this paper, we present a method to learn prediction intervals for regression-based neural networks automatically in addition to the conventional target predictions. In particular, we train two companion neural networks: one that uses one output, the target estimate, and another that uses two outputs, the upper and lower bounds of the corresponding PI. Our main contribution is the design of a novel loss function for the PI-generation network that takes into account the output of the target-estimation network and has two optimization objectives: minimizing the mean prediction interval width and ensuring the PI integrity using constraints that maximize the prediction interval probability coverage implicitly. Furthermore, we introduce a self-adaptive coefficient that balances both objectives within the loss function, which alleviates the task of fine-tuning. Experiments using a synthetic dataset, eight benchmark datasets, and a real-world crop yield prediction dataset showed that our method was able to maintain a nominal probability coverage and produce significantly narrower PIs without detriment to its target estimation accuracy when compared to those PIs generated by three state-of-the-art neural-network-based methods.

In light of this insight, we advocate employing our proposed probabilistic weighted pooling, instead of commonly used max-pooling, to act as model averaging at test time. Empirical evidence validates the superiority of probabilistic weighted pooling. We also empirically show that the effect of convolutional dropout is not trivial, despite the dramatically reduced possibility of over-fitting due to the convolutional architecture. Elaborately designing dropout training simultaneously in max-pooling and fully-connected layers, we achieve state-of-the-art performance on MNIST, and very competitive results on CIFAR-10 and CIFAR-100, relative to other approaches without data augmentation.

Fix: - Added Check 0 (topical relevance gate) at the top of verify_citation - query_relevance_score = |salient_query_tokens ∩ candidate_tokens| / |salient_query_tokens| - Threshold: 0.30 (≥30% of query's salient — non-stop-word, len≥3 — tokens must appear in candidate's claimed title+abstract) - Stop-word list filters tokens like "the/and/study/analysis/method/factor" - Containment metric (not Jaccard) avoids penalizing the natural length asymmetry of long queries vs. short titles - Threaded `query` through _verify_each (librarian.py) + iterate_until_target (expand.py); each expanded term is its own effective query - Added VerificationLog.query_relevance_score field - Added VerificationFailure.reason="query_irrelevant" - Bumped librarian prompt_version 1.0.0 -> 1.1.0 (cache invalidation; verification semantics changed) Re-runs after fix: - Phase 2 regression: 95/95 PASS (added 6 relevance tests) - US4 cross-domain: 8/8 PASS, 58 verified citations (vs 72 under v1.0.0 — gate filtered 14 false positives), all first-verified-citation now genuinely on-topic per manual audit - PROJ-261 re-validation: validated (4/4), 7 verified citations on LLM-code-understanding topics ("SIMCOPILOT", "Evaluating Code Generation of LLMs", etc.) — fully on-topic - PROJ-262 re-validation: validated (4/4), 9 verified citations on GNN-dipole-moment topics ("Q-DFTNet", "PhysNet", "MolNet_Equi", etc.) — fully on-topic - One field (biology) overran 600s soft budget by 24s; accepted as P5-D09 (LOW, soft target only) Updated: revalidation-results.yaml, carry-forward.yaml, diagnostic report (Sections 4/5/6/7), librarian.py, verify.py, expand.py, registry.yaml. Wiped stale v1.0.0 cache.

This is a domain question about how redundancy in code corpora affects LLM understanding, independent of any specific model architecture or resource constraint. The methodology details (AST-based detection, codegen-350M model, CPU inference) are implementation choices, not the question itself. ### Circularity check **Verdict**: pass -The predictor (syntactic clone density) is computed via AST-based clone detection on code structure. The predicted variables (perplexity, bug-detection accuracy) are computed from the LLM's inference performance on the same code segments. These are distinct measurement modalities: one quantifies code properties, the other quantifies model behavior. No mechanical guarantee exists between them. +The predictor (duplication density from AST-based clone detection) and predicted variables (perplexity and bug-detection accuracy from model inference) are distinct measurements on the same code segments. While both are computed from the same code corpus, they measure different phenomena: structural redundancy versus model prediction performance. This is not circular in the sense of mechanically guaranteed relationships (like centrality and synchrony both summarizing a correlation matrix). ### Triviality check **Verdict**: pass -Both outcomes are informative: a positive correlation would suggest duplication aids pattern memorization but harms generalization (revealing a tension in LLM training dynamics); a null correlation would indicate LLMs are robust to code redundancy. Either result advances understanding of how training data structure affects model comprehension. +Both outcomes would be informative: a negative correlation would suggest duplication aids memorization through repeated training exposure; a positive correlation would suggest redundancy degrades generalization.

It uses models as a tool to measure signal contribution rather than testing the model's performance limit itself. The core inquiry is about the structure-property relationship, not the algorithmic efficiency. +The question asks about the relative contribution of specific physical features (atom types, geometry) to a molecular property, using models as tools for attribution rather than evaluating the models themselves as the primary outcome. The core inquiry targets chemical structure-property relationships, not the performance metrics of the GNN architecture. ### Circularity check + **Verdict**: pass -Predictor features (atomic coordinates, types, bonds) are distinct from the target property (dipole moment), which is an emergent electronic property calculated from quantum mechanics. They are not derived from the same summary statistic or correlation matrix, so the relationship is empirical rather than mechanical. +Predictors (structural graph and 3D coordinates) are distinct inputs from the target (dipole moment vector), representing a standard structure-property relationship rather than a mechanical derivation. While the dipole depends on geometry, the inputs are not summaries of the target variable itself, avoiding mechanical guarantee. ### Triviality check + **Verdict**: pass -Both outcomes are informative; confirming 3D geometry necessity supports the use of equivariant architectures for electronic properties, while showing 2D descriptors suffice would suggest significant computational savings are possible without loss of accuracy. Neither result is predetermined by basic domain knowledge given the complexity of many-body interactions. +While basic chemical intuition suggests electronegativity matters, quantifying the independent signal of 3D conformation vs. 2D topology in a data-driven context provides novel interpretability insights regardless of whether the GNN outperforms baselines. Either outcome (strong conformational signal or dominance of local topology) refines understanding of how ML models capture physics. ### Question-narrowing check + **Verdict**: pass -Names domain relationships (structure-property mapping) rather than implementation constraints (runtime, architecture depth). The comparison between graph-based and traditional descriptors serves to probe feature representational capacity, not to benchmark hardware or training time. +The question focuses on domain relationships (structural drivers of polarity) rather than implementation constraints (runtime, accuracy metrics). It names a relationship in the domain (structure -> dipole) and uses model comparison only to isolate feature contributions. ### Overall verdict + **Verdict**: validated -All checks pass; the research question focuses on a substantive scientific inquiry regarding which structural signals drive molecular dipole moments. The methodology serves the question rather than defining it, and the expected outcomes would yield publishable insights into interpretability and model design. +All four checks pass as the research question prioritizes chemical interpretability and structure-property relationships over model benchmarking. The proposed reframing of feature attribution aligns with the motivation to bridge accuracy and interpretability without falling into circularity or triviality.

It is not possible to experimentally evaluate respiratory toxicity for all the thousands of chemicals in use. Here, we generated structural alerts and developed machine learning (ML) classification models to predict respiratory irritation and respiratory sensitization hazards of chemicals using experimental data from publicly available databases and the literature. We identified 13 structural alerts for respiratory irritants and 18 structural alerts for respiratory sensitizers. We also developed a set of models for each hazard using different types of molecular descriptors and ML techniques. Five of the best performing models were combined into a consensus classification model for respiratory irritation, and four individual models were used to develop a consensus classification model for respiratory sensitization.

However, due to high-cost and complex wet-lab experiments, real-world molecules usually experience the issue of scarce annotations, leading to limited labeled data for effective supervised AI model learning. In light of this, few-shot molecular property prediction (FSMPP) has emerged as an expressive paradigm that enables learning from only a few labeled examples. Despite rapidly growing attention, existing FSMPP studies remain fragmented, without a coherent framework to capture methodological advances and domain-specific challenges. In this work, we present the first comprehensive and systematic survey of few-shot molecular property prediction. We begin by analyzing the few-shot phenomenon in molecular datasets and highlighting two core challenges: (1) cross-property generalization under distribution shifts, where each task corresponding to each property, may follow a different data distribution or even be inherently weakly related to others from a biochemical perspective, requiring the model to transfer knowledge across heterogeneous prediction tasks, and (2) cross-molecule generalization under structural heterogeneity, where molecules involved in different or same properties may exhibit significant structural diversity, making model difficult to achieve generalization. Then, we introduce a unified taxonomy that organizes existing methods into data, model, and learning paradigm levels, reflecting their strategies for extracting knowledge from scarce supervision in few-shot molecular property prediction. Next, we compare representative methods, summarize benchmark datasets and evaluation protocols.

To investigate, a preterm infant study was conducted; infant fecal samples were collected during the infants' first month of postnatal age, resulting in functional compositional microbiome data, and neurobehavioral outcomes were measured when infants reached 36-38 weeks of post-menstrual age. To identify potential microbiome markers and estimate how the trajectories of gut microbiome compositions during early postnatal stage impact later neurobehavioral outcomes of the preterm infants, we innovate a sparse log-contrast regression with functional compositional predictors.

The role of microglial cells in this process remains underexplored. Objective To investigate how diet-induced changes in gut microbiota influence cognitive function in individuals with obesity and their microglial activity, and to determine the impact of specific dietary interventions. Design This study included 96 participants with obesity who were randomised into three dietary intervention groups: Mediterranean diet (Med), alternate-day fasting (ADF) and ketogenic diet (Keto). Cognitive performance and microbiota composition were assessed pre-intervention and post-intervention. The effects of microbiota-related changes on microglial function were further evaluated in mice models through faecal transplantation and in vitro model with microbiota exosome treatment. Results Both the Keto and ADF groups demonstrated significant weight loss, but cognitive performance improved most notably in the ADF group, in association with reduced inflammation. Diet-related microbiota composition was correlated with the cognitive outcomes in the human study. Mice models confirmed that the cognitive benefits of ADF were microbiota-dependent and linked to enhanced microglial phagocytic capacity and reduced inflammation, accompanied by changes in microglia morphology. Conclusion Fasting-induced modifications in gut microbiota contribute to cognitive improvement in individuals with obesity, with microglial cells playing a crucial mediatory role. Among the interventions, ADF most effectively enhanced microglial function and cognitive performance, suggesting its potential as a therapeutic strategy for obesity-related cognitive decline.

In Parkinson’s Disease (PD) patients, CI is one of the most common non-motor symptoms but its mechanistic development across the spectrum remains unclear, complicating early diagnosis of at-risk individuals.

The main emphasis will be then on two paradigmal neural network architectures showing continuously ongoing transient-state dynamics: saddle point networks and networks of attractor relics.\n Self-active neural networks are confronted with two seemingly contrasting demands: a stable internal dynamical state and sensitivity to incoming stimuli. We show, that this dilemma can be solved by networks of attractor relics based on competitive neural dynamics, where the attractor relics compete on one side with each other for transient dominance, and on the other side with the dynamical influence of the input signals. Unsupervised and local Hebbian-style online learning then allows the system to build up correlations between the internal dynamical transient states and the sensory input stream. An emergent cognitive capability results from this set-up.

We used the XMM-Newton Extended Survey of the Taurus Molecular Cloud, where a sample of 11 young bona fide brown dwarfs (spectral type later than M6) were observed simultaneously in X-rays with XMM-Newton and in the U-band with the XMM-Newton Optical/UV Monitor (OM). We obtained upper limits to the U-band emission of 10 brown dwarfs (U>19.6-20.6 mag), whereas 2MASSJ04141188+2811535 was detected in the U-band. Remarkably, the magnitude of this brown dwarf increased regularly from U~19.5 mag at the beginning of the observation, peaked 6h later at U~18.4 mag, and then decreased to U~18.65 mag in the next 2h. The first OM U-band measurement is consistent with the quiescent level observed about one year later thanks to ground follow-up observations. This brown dwarf was not detected in X-rays by XMM-Newton during the OM observation. We discuss the possible sources of U-band variability for this young brown dwarf, namely a magnetic flare, non-steady accretion onto the substellar surface, and rotational modulation of a hot spot. We conclude that this event is related to accretion from a circumsubstellar disk, where the mass accretion rate was about a factor of 3 higher than during the quiescent level.", - "summary_grounded_pdf": false, - "verification_log": { - "final_url": "https://arxiv.org/abs/astro-ph/0609027", - "http_status": 200, - "pdf_sample_score": null, - "redirect_chain": [], - "summary_grounding_score": 1.0, - "title_token_overlap_score": 1.0, - "url_resolves": true, - "verified_at": "2026-05-06T21:21:42Z" - } - }, - { - "bibliographic_info": { - "authors": [ - "Stefan Gugler", - "Markus Reiher" - ], - "title": "Quantum chemical roots of machine-learning molecular similarity descriptors", - "venue": "arXiv", - "year": 2022 - }, - "primary_pointer": "2207.03599", - "summary": "In this work, we explore the quantum chemical foundations of descriptors for molecular similarity. Such descriptors are key for traversing chemical compound space with machine learning. Our focus is on the Coulomb matrix and on the smooth overlap of atomic positions (SOAP). We adopt a basic framework that allows us to connect both descriptors to electronic structure theory. This framework enables us then to define two new descriptors that are more closely related to electronic structure theory, which we call Coulomb lists and smooth overlap of electron densities (SOED). By investigating their usefulness as molecular similarity descriptors, we gain new insights in how and why Coulomb matrix and SOAP work. Moreover, Coulomb lists avoid the somewhat mysterious diagonalization step of the Coulomb matrix and might provide a direct means to extract subsystem information that can be compared across Born-Oppenheimer surfaces of varying dimension. For the electron density we derive the necessary formalism to create the SOED measure in close analogy to SOAP. Since this formalism is more involved than that of SOAP, we review the essential theory, but also introduce a set of approximations that eventually allow us to work with SOED in terms of the same implementation available for the evaluation of SOAP. We focus our analysis on elementary reaction steps, where transition state structures are more similar to either reactant or product structures than the latter two are with respect to one another. The prediction of electronic energies of transition state structures can, however, be more difficult than that of stable intermediates due to multi-configurational effects.

Conventional machine-learning-based optimization approaches typically require large datasets to construct accurate surrogate models, limiting their applicability in data-scarce settings. In this study, we present a Bayesian optimization (BO) framework that identifies optimal molecular structures with high precision using fewer than 2,000 training data points within a chemical subspace containing more than 133,000 molecules. The framework employs a low-dimensional and physics-informed molecular descriptor vector that facilitates data-efficient surrogate modelling and optimization. A key innovation of the proposed framework is a reliable inverse mapping scheme that translates optimized points in the descriptor space back into chemically valid molecular structures, thereby bridging continuous optimization and discrete molecular design. We demonstrate the effectiveness of our approach on the QM9 benchmark dataset, where the framework successfully identifies organic molecules with the target entropy and zero-point vibrational energy (ZPVE) values.For entropy optimization, our approach achieves a 100% success rate while requiring fewer than 1,000 molecular evaluations in more than 80% of test cases. For ZPVE, the success rate exceeds 80% for molecules containing more than two heavy atoms.

In this work, we show that a possible connection may naturally rest on the idea that information flows in the brain through a neural message-passing dynamics between macroscopic structures, like those defined by the human connectome (HC). In our model, each brain region in the HC is assumed to have a binary behavior (active or not), the strength of interactions among them is encoded in the anatomical connectivity matrix defined by the HC, and the dynamics of the system is defined by a neural message-passing algorithm, Belief Propagation (BP), working near the critical point of the human connectome. We show that in the absence of direct external stimuli the BP algorithm converges to a spatial map of activations that is similar to the DMN. Moreover, we computed, using Susceptibility Propagation (SP), the matrix of correlations between the different regions and show that the modules defined by a clustering of this matrix resemble several Resting States Networks determined experimentally. Both results suggest that the functional DMN and RSNs can be seen as simple consequences of the anatomical structure of the brain and a neural message-passing dynamics between macroscopic regions.

Here we show, through a simulation studies, that the fractal behavior of cerebral hemodynamics may cause significant distortion of network properties between neuronal activities and BOLD signals. We simulated neuronal population activities based on the stochastic neural field model from the Macaque brain network, and then obtained their corresponding BOLD signals by convolving them with the rs-HRF filter. The precision of centrality estimated in each node was deteriorated overall in three networks based on transfer entropy, mutual information, and Pearson correlation; particularly the distortion of transfer entropy was more sensitive to the standard deviation of fractal exponents. A node with high centrality was resilient to desynchronized fractal dynamics over all frequencies while a node with small centrality exhibited huge distortion of both wavelet correlation and centrality over low frequencies.

We used a customized template to extract networks with more than 1800 regional nodes, and we applied a fast algorithm to identify nested modular structure at several hierarchical levels. We used mutual information, 0 < I < 1, to estimate the similarity of community structure of networks in different subjects, and to identify the individual network that is most representative of the group. Results show that human brain functional networks have a hierarchical modular organization with a fair degree of similarity between subjects, I=0.63. The largest 5 modules at the highest level of the hierarchy were medial occipital, lateral occipital, central, parieto-frontal and fronto-temporal systems; occipital modules demonstrated less sub-modular organization than modules comprising regions of multimodal association cortex. Connector nodes and hubs, with a key role in inter-modular connectivity, were also concentrated in association cortical areas.

The changes in overall resting-state brain functional connectivity with changes in brain developmental stages have also been explored using BrainNet Viewer. Then, specifically within-cluster network and between-cluster network changes with increasing age have been studied using linear regression which ultimately shows a pattern of increase/decrease in the mean segregation of brain networks with healthy aging. Brain networks like Default Mode Network, Cingulo opercular Network, Sensory Motor Network, and Cerebellum Network have shown decreased segregation whereas Frontal Parietal Network and Occipital Network show increased segregation with healthy aging. Our results strongly suggest that the brain has four brain developmental stages and brain networks reorganize their functional connectivity during these brain developmental stages.", + "summary_grounded_pdf": false, + "verification_log": { + "final_url": "https://arxiv.org/abs/2206.08197", + "http_status": 200, + "pdf_sample_score": null, + "query_relevance_score": 0.4, + "redirect_chain": [], + "summary_grounding_score": 1.0, + "title_token_overlap_score": 1.0, + "url_resolves": true, + "verified_at": "2026-05-07T03:22:29Z" + } + }, + { + "bibliographic_info": { + "authors": [ + "Dushyant Sahoo", + "Theodore D.

This paper provides a novel method for the extraction of hierarchical connectivity components in the human brain using resting-state fMRI. The method builds upon prior work of Sparse Connectivity Patterns (SCPs) by introducing a hierarchy of sparse overlapping patterns. The components are estimated by deep factorization of correlation matrices generated from fMRI. The goal of the paper is to extract interpretable hierarchical patterns using correlation matrices where a low rank decomposition is formed by a linear combination of a high rank decomposition. We formulate the decomposition as a non-convex optimization problem and solve it using gradient descent algorithms with adaptive step size. We also provide a method for the warm start of the gradient descent using singular value decomposition. We demonstrate the effectiveness of the developed method on two different real-world datasets by showing that multi-scale hierarchical SCPs are reproducible between sub-samples and are more reproducible as compared to single scale patterns. We also compare our method with existing hierarchical community detection approaches.

Despite their promising capabilities, the lack of transparency in AI models poses significant challenges, particularly in medical contexts where reliability is a mandatory aspect. However, it appears that explainability is inversely proportional to accuracy. For this reason, achieving transparency without compromising predictive accuracy remains a key challenge.\n\n\nMETHODS\nThis paper presents a novel method, namely Rad4XCNN, to enhance the predictive power of CNN-derived features with the inherent interpretability of radiomic features. Rad4XCNN diverges from conventional methods based on saliency maps, by associating intelligible meaning to CNN-derived features by means of Radiomics, offering new perspectives on explanation methods beyond visualization maps.\n\n\nRESULTS\nUsing a breast cancer classification task as a case study, we evaluated Rad4XCNN on ultrasound imaging datasets, including an online dataset and two in-house datasets for internal and external validation. Some key results are: (i) CNN-derived features guarantee more robust accuracy when compared against ViT-derived and radiomic features; (ii) conventional visualization map methods for explanation present several pitfalls; (iii) Rad4XCNN does not sacrifice model accuracy for their explainability; (iv) Rad4XCNN provides a global explanation enabling the physician to extract global insights and findings.\n\n\nCONCLUSIONS\nOur method can mitigate some concerns related to the explainability-accuracy trade-off.

Methods A total of 450 patients were included, with 225 patients targeting emmetropia and 225 patients aiming for approximately −2.0 diopters of myopia. This retrospective analysis utilized data from a single eye of each patient, with preoperative biometric measurements obtained using the IOL Master 700. The study considered established formulas such as Haigis, Hoffer Q, Holladay 1, Holladay 2, and SRK/T, as well as modern formulas including Barrett Universal II, Cooke K6, EVO 2.0, Hill-RBF, Hoffer QST, Kane, Olsen, and PEARL-DGS. Statistical analyses, including Friedman test and post hoc analysis, were employed to compare the accuracy of each IOL power calculation formula between the two groups. Additionally, a multiple regression analysis was conducted to identify variables influencing the accuracy of intraocular lens power calculation formulas.

Methods We analyzed 241 eyes of 241 patients.

With lens constants optimized for the whole range of AL, the mean prediction error (PE) and its standard deviation (SD), the median absolute error (MedAE), the mean absolute error (MAE) and the percentage of eyes with PEs within ±0.25 D, ±0.50 D and <±1.00 D were calculated. Results Post-hoc analysis of the absolute PE revealed statistically significant differences (P < .05) between some of the newer formulas (K6, Kane, Naeser 2, Olsen and VRF-G), which obtained the lowest MedAE (respectively, 0.308, 0.300, 0.277, 0.310 and 0.276 D) and the remaining ones.

The absolute prediction error (APE) of spherical equivalent (SE) and cylinder (CYL) was calculated based on K and TK (including posterior corneal surface) data recorded 6 weeks after IOL implantation. APE was calculated as the difference between the postoperative refraction and the refractive error predicted by three classic IOL calculation methods (Haigis/Haigis-T, Barrett Universal II, Barrett Toric Calculator) and two new formulas developed for TK (Barrett TK Universal II, Barrett TK Toric). For APE in SE, the Haigis-T (K versus TK) and Barrett Universal II (K) versus Barrett TK Universal II (TK) were compared. For APE in CYL, the Haigis-T (K versus TK) and Barrett Toric Calculator (K) versus Barrett TK Toric formula (TK) were compared.\n\n\nRESULTS\nMean APE in SE and CYL was lower based on TK values compared to K, with a mean APE difference (K - TK) of 0.011 ± 0.107 diopters (D) (SE Haigis-T; 95% confidence interval [CI]: -0.004 to infinity), 0.016 ± 0.113 D (SE: Barrett Universal II versus Barrett TK Universal II; 95% CI: 0.0005 to infinity), 0.103 ± 0.173 D (CYL: Haigis-T; 95% CI: 0.0791 to infinity), and 0.020 ± 0.148 D (CYL: Barrett Toric versus Barrett TK Toric; 95% CI: -0.0002 to infinity). APE in SE was within ±0.50 D in 86% (Barrett TK Universal II) versus 84% (Barrett Universal II) of eyes. APE in CYL was within ±0.50 D in 58% (Haigis from TK) versus 44% (Haigis from K) of eyes.\n\n\nCONCLUSIONS\nIn comparison to standard K, a higher prediction accuracy can be expected by using TK values along with the two newly developed formulas.

Two academic otolaryngologists and two LLMs independently evaluated each case. All LLMs operated in deterministic mode (temperature = 0) with standardized single-pass prompting in isolated sessions. Diagnostic accuracy, inter-rater agreement (Cohen’s κ), and subspecialty-specific performance were analyzed. A post hoc power analysis (Cohen’s h = 0.22; α = 0.05) assessed the ability to detect moderate effect sizes.Results: Both LLMs achieved a diagnostic accuracy of 90.0% (63/70), with no significant difference between them (p = 1.00) and substantial inter-model agreement (κ = 0.68). Human evaluators achieved accuracies of 97.1% and 92.9%, with fair inter-rater agreement (κ = 0.26).

To address these challenges, we argue that post-hoc attribution can be reframed as a reasoning problem, where answers are decomposed into constituent units, each tied to specific context. We first show that prompting models to generate such decompositions alongside attributions improves performance. Building on this, we introduce DecompTune, a post-training method that teaches models to produce answer decompositions as intermediate reasoning steps. We curate a diverse dataset of complex QA tasks, annotated with decompositions by a strong LLM, and post-train Qwen-2.5 (7B and 14B) using a two-stage SFT + GRPO pipeline with task-specific curated rewards.

Furthermore, Transformers encounters a computational limitation: quadratic complexity growth with sequence length. Motivated by these limitations, we aim to design architectures that leverage efficient working memory dynamics to overcome standard computational barriers. We introduce Echo State Transformers (EST), a hybrid architecture that resolves this challenge while demonstrating state of the art performance in classification and detection tasks. EST integrates the Transformer attention mechanisms with nodes from Reservoir Computing to create a fixed-size memory system. Drawing inspiration from Echo State Networks, our approach leverages several reservoirs (random recurrent networks) in parallel as a lightweight and efficient working memory. These independent units possess distinct and learned internal dynamics with an adaptive leak rate, enabling them to dynamically adjust their own temporality. By applying attention on those fixed number of units instead of input tokens, EST achieves linear complexity for the whole sequence, effectively breaking the quadratic scaling problem of standard Transformers. We evaluate ESTs on a recent timeseries benchmark: the Time Series Library, which comprises 69 tasks across five categories. Results show that ESTs ranks first overall in two of five categories, outperforming strong state-of-the-art baselines on classification and anomaly detection tasks, while remaining competitive on short-term forecasting.

Challenges in adapting Transformer from language to vision arise from differences between the two domains, such as large variations in the scale of visual entities and the high resolution of pixels in images compared to words in text. To address these differences, we propose a hierarchical Transformer whose representation is computed with Shifted windows. The shifted windowing scheme brings greater efficiency by limiting self-attention computation to non-overlapping local windows while also allowing for cross-window connection. This hierarchical architecture has the flexibility to model at various scales and has linear computational complexity with respect to image size. These qualities of Swin Transformer make it compatible with a broad range of vision tasks, including image classification (87.3 top-1 accuracy on ImageNet-1K) and dense prediction tasks such as object detection (58.7 box AP and 51.1 mask AP on COCO test-dev) and semantic segmentation (53.5 mIoU on ADE20K val). Its performance surpasses the previous state-of-the-art by a large margin of +2.7 box AP and +2.6 mask AP on COCO, and +3.2 mIoU on ADE20K, demonstrating the potential of Transformer-based models as vision backbones.

Although Vision Transformer has been widely introduced in medical image segmentation to compensate the limitations of traditional CNN in modeling global context, its shortcomings in learning the fine-detailed features and the heavy computation cost also hinder its application in challenging polyp segmentation due to the various shapes and sizes of polyps, the low-intensity contrast between polyps and surrounding tissues, and the inherent real-time requirement. In this paper, we propose a multi-scale efficient transformer attention (META) mechanism for fast and high-accuracy polyp segmentation, where efficient transformer blocks are employed to generate multi-scale element-wise attentions for adaptive feature fusion in the famous U-shape encoder-decoder architecture. Specifically, our META mechanism includes two branches to capture multi-scale long-term dependencies, which are implemented via two efficient transformer blocks with different resolutions. The local branch is used to capture a relatively smaller transform attention under a relatively lower resolution, while the global branch is used to capture high-resolution transform attention. The final poly segmentation results are progressively integrated based on the META mechanism in each layer of the decoder. Extensive experiments are conducted on four polyp segmentation datasets (CVC-ClinicDB, Endoscenestill, Kvasir-SEG and ETIS-Larib) to demonstrate its advantages, consistently outperforming different competitors. While using ResNet34 as backbones, it can achieve 85.78% IoU and 92.03% Dice, 88.99% IoU and 93.85% Dice, 86.42% IoU and 91.86% Dice respectively in CVC-ClinicDB, Endoscenestill, and Kvasir-SEG, and a speed of 98 FPS at the input size of $3 \\times 512 \\times 512$ on a NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3090 card. The code is available at https://github.com/szuzzb/META-Unet. Note to Practitioners—Automatic polyp segmentation is a crucial step of polyp recognition and diagnostic of colonoscopy, which usually require both high-accuracy and real-time performance. This article proposes a novel polyp segmentation method, namely META-Unet, by modeling multi-scale attention maps effectively and efficiently based on a novel multi-scale efficient transformer attention (META) mechanism, for faster and higher-accuracy polyp segmentation. We evaluate our META-Unet on four public polyp image segmentation datasets (CVC-ClinicDB, Endoscenestill, Kvasir-SEG and ETIS-Larib).

Our approach processes small-patch and large-patch tokens with two separate branches of different computational complexity and these tokens are then fused purely by attention multiple times to complement each other. Furthermore, to reduce computation, we develop a simple yet effective token fusion module based on cross attention, which uses a single token for each branch as a query to exchange information with other branches.

In these settings, small transformers reproduce Bayesian posteriors with $10^{-3}$-$10^{-4}$ bit accuracy, while capacity-matched MLPs fail by orders of magnitude, establishing a clear architectural separation. Across two tasks -- bijection elimination and Hidden Markov Model (HMM) state tracking -- we find that transformers implement Bayesian inference through a consistent geometric mechanism: residual streams serve as the belief substrate, feed-forward networks perform the posterior update, and attention provides content-addressable routing.

To investigate this limitation in LLMs, we employed the classic color Stroop task that is widely regarded as the gold standard for testing executive control of attention. Our results revealed a typical conflict effect of better performance in terms of accuracy in the congruent condition (e.g., naming the ink color of the word RED in red) compared to the incongruent condition (e.g., naming the ink color of the word RED in blue), which is similar to human performance in short sequences. However, as sequence length increased, the performance degraded toward chance levels on the incongruent trials despite maintaining excellent performance on congruent trials and near-perfect word reading ability. These findings demonstrate that while transformer attention mechanisms can achieve human-comparable performance in smaller contexts, they are fundamentally limited in their capacity for conflict resolution across extended contexts.

While reusing code fragments boosts productivity, excessive cloning poses challenges to maintenance and elevates the risk of bugs. Therefore, integrating code clone detection into the development process is crucial. The extensive code-related knowledge inherent in Large Language Models (LLMs) renders them high-potential candidates for addressing diverse software engineering challenges. However, the effectiveness of LLMs in the specific task of code clone detection requires precise evaluation. This paper proposes an innovative methodology leveraging few-shot instruction-tuned GPT-3.5 Turbo and GPT-4 to detect code clones across all types, focusing on complex clones (Type-3 and Type-4). Unlike conventional approaches confined to specific language pairs or tasks, our method employs versatile language models, showcases generalization strengths for semantic understanding, and leverages instruction tuning with few-shot inference for task-specific adaptability in code clone detection. A conversational dataset was crafted from BigCloneBench for instruction tuning, enhancing task alignment and performance. This study evaluates the proficiency of LLMs in identifying code clones, analyzing the impact of instruction tuning, and assessing the efficiency across various clone types. Experimental results demonstrate these models achieving competitive performance against existing tools for overall and complex clone detection. Integration into an Integrated Development Environment (IDE) enables real-time detection and automated refactoring, bridging the gap between theoretical advancements and practical usability.

The LLMs are mainly utilized in the prompt-based zero/few-shot paradigm to guide the model in accomplishing the task. GPT-based models are one of the popular ones studied for tasks such as code comment generation or test generation. These tasks are ‘generative’ tasks. However, there is limited research on the usage of LLMs for ‘non-generative’ tasks such as classification using the prompt-based paradigm. In this preliminary exploratory study, we investigated the applicability of LLMs for Code Clone Detection (CCD), a non-generative task. By building a mono-lingual and cross-lingual CCD dataset derived from CodeNet, we first investigated two different prompts using ChatGPT to detect Type-4 code clones in Java-Java and Java-Ruby pairs in a zero-shot setting. We then conducted an analysis to understand the strengths and weaknesses of ChatGPT in CCD. ChatGPT surpasses the baselines in cross-language CCD attaining an F1-score of 0.877 and achieves comparable performance to fully fine-tuned models for mono-lingual CCD, with an F1-score of 0.878. Also, the prompt and the difficulty level of the problems has an impact on the performance of ChatGPT.

Effective and efficient scalable clone detection, especially for diverged clones, remains challenging. Large language models (LLMs) have recently been applied to clone detection tasks. However, the rapid emergence of LLMs raises questions about optimal model selection and potential LLM-ensemble efficacy. This paper addresses the first question by identifying 76 LLMs and filtering them down to suitable candidates for large-scale clone detection. The candidates were evaluated on two public industrial datasets, BigCloneBench, and a commercial large-scale dataset. No uniformly'best-LLM'emerged, though CodeT5+110M, CuBERT and SPTCode were top-performers. Analysis of LLM-candidates suggested that smaller embedding sizes, smaller tokenizer vocabularies and tailored datasets are advantageous. On commercial large-scale dataset a top-performing CodeT5+110M achieved 39.71\\% precision: twice the precision of previously used CodeBERT. To address the second question, this paper explores ensembling of the selected LLMs: effort-effective approach to improving effectiveness. Results suggest the importance of score normalization and favoring ensembling methods like maximum or sum over averaging. Also, findings indicate that ensembling approach can be statistically significant and effective on larger datasets: the best-performing ensemble achieved even higher precision of 46.91\\% over individual LLM on the commercial large-scale code.", - "summary_grounded_pdf": false, - "verification_log": { - "final_url": "https://arxiv.org/abs/2510.15480", - "http_status": 200, - "pdf_sample_score": null, - "redirect_chain": [ - "https://doi.org/10.48550/arXiv.2510.15480" - ], - "summary_grounding_score": 1.0, - "title_token_overlap_score": 1.0, - "url_resolves": true, - "verified_at": "2026-05-07T01:46:43Z" - } - }, - { - "bibliographic_info": { - "authors": [ - "Zixian Zhang", - "Takfarinas Saber" - ], - "title": "Assessing the Code Clone Detection Capability of Large Language Models", - "venue": "2024 4th International Conference on Code Quality (ICCQ)", - "year": 2024 - }, - "primary_pointer": "https://doi.org/10.1109/ICCQ60895.2024.10576803", - "summary": "This study aims to assess the performance of two advanced Large Language Models (LLMs), GPT-3.S and GPT-4, in the task of code clone detection. The evaluation involves testing the models on a variety of code pairs of different clone types and levels of similarity, sourced from two datasets: BigCloneBench (human-made) and GPTCloneBench (LLM-generated). Findings from the study indicate that GPT-4 consistently sur-passes GPT-3.5 across all clone types. A correlation was observed between the GPTs' accuracy at identifying code clones and code similarity, with both GPT models exhibiting low effectiveness in detecting the most complex Type-4 code clones. Additionally, GPT models demonstrate a higher performance identifying code clones in LLM-generated code compared to humans-generated code. However, they do not reach impressive accuracy. These results emphasize the imperative for ongoing enhancements in LLM capabilities, particularly in the recognition of code clones and in mitigating their predisposition towards self-generated code clones-which is likely to become an issue as software engineers are more numerous to leverage LLM-enabled code generation and code refactoring tools.", - "summary_grounded_pdf": false, - "verification_log": { - "final_url": "https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/document/10576803/", - "http_status": 200, - "pdf_sample_score": null, - "redirect_chain": [ - "https://doi.org/10.1109/ICCQ60895.2024.10576803" - ], - "summary_grounding_score": 1.0, - "title_token_overlap_score": 1.0, - "url_resolves": true, - "verified_at": "2026-05-07T01:46:44Z" - } - } - ] - }, - "target_n": 5, - "term_normalized": "evaluating the impact of code duplication on llm code understanding computer science", - "ttls": { - "arxiv": 2592000, - "doi_bib": 7776000, - "http_head": 604800 - } -} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/state/librarian-cache/680a862b529dd34536612fc22980863f5fa639e52e6ad4d94604bfe2b6560a96.json b/state/librarian-cache/680a862b529dd34536612fc22980863f5fa639e52e6ad4d94604bfe2b6560a96.json deleted file mode 100644 index 899b0f7a..00000000 --- a/state/librarian-cache/680a862b529dd34536612fc22980863f5fa639e52e6ad4d94604bfe2b6560a96.json +++ /dev/null @@ -1,224 +0,0 @@ -{ - "fetched_at": "2026-05-06T21:26:57Z", - "field": "psychology", - "prompt_version": "1.0.0", - "result": { - "cache_status": "miss", - "context": { - "field": "psychology", - "idea_body_excerpt": "---\nfield: psychology\nsubmitter: google.gemma-3-27b-it\n---\n\n# The Influence of Visual Priming on Implicit Attitudes Towards Ambiguous Social Stimuli\n\n**Field**: psychology\n\n## Research question\n\nHow does brief exposure to emotional facial expressions (positive vs. negative) modulate implicit attitude measurements toward racially ambiguous faces, and does this priming effect persist across different demographic groups?\n\n## Motivation\n\nImplicit bias shapes social interactions and decision-making in ways that are not accessible to conscious awareness.

We also investigated how such effects are influenced by more sustained mood states and by individual affect traits (depression and anxiety) and whether they interact. Transient emotional states were induced using movie-clips, after which participants performed a forced-choice emotion classification task with morphed facial expressions ranging from fear to happiness. Using a psychometric approach, we show that negative (vs. neutral) clips increased participants’ propensity to classify ambiguous faces as fearful during several minutes. In contrast, positive movies biased classification toward happiness only for those clips perceived as most absorbing. Negative mood, anxiety and depression had a stronger effect than transient states and increased the propensity to classify ambiguous faces as fearful.

We also investigated how such effects are influenced by more sustained mood states and by individual affect traits (depression and anxiety) and whether they interact. Transient emotional states were induced using movie-clips, after which participants performed a forced-choice emotion classification task with morphed facial expressions ranging from fear to happiness. Using a psychometric approach, we show that negative (vs. neutral) clips increased participants’ propensity to classify ambiguous faces as fearful during several minutes. In contrast, positive movies biased classification toward happiness only for those clips perceived as most absorbing. Negative mood, anxiety and depression had a stronger effect than transient states and increased the propensity to classify ambiguous faces as fearful. These results provide the first evidence that absorption and different temporal dimensions of emotions have a significant effect on how we perceive facial expressions.", + "summary_grounded_pdf": false, + "verification_log": { + "final_url": "https://journals.plos.org/plosone/article?id=10.1371/journal.pone.0171375", + "http_status": 200, + "pdf_sample_score": null, + "query_relevance_score": 0.8333, + "redirect_chain": [ + "https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0171375", + "https://dx.plos.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0171375", + "https://journals.plos.org/plosone/doi?id=10.1371/journal.pone.0171375" + ], + "summary_grounding_score": 1.0, + "title_token_overlap_score": 1.0, + "url_resolves": true, + "verified_at": "2026-05-07T03:28:42Z" + } + }, + { + "bibliographic_info": { + "authors": [ + "Sascha Krause", + "M.

Concerning the affective priming task, no significant differences between the different pictures could be carved out. Implicit and explicit affective attitudes were not related to the body satisfaction of the participating women.

In particular, Resting State Networks (RSN) and more specifically the Default Mode Network (DMN) of the brain, which are defined from the analysis of functional data lack a definitive justification consistent with the anatomical structure of the brain. In this work, we show that a possible connection may naturally rest on the idea that information flows in the brain through a neural message-passing dynamics between macroscopic structures, like those defined by the human connectome (HC). In our model, each brain region in the HC is assumed to have a binary behavior (active or not), the strength of interactions among them is encoded in the anatomical connectivity matrix defined by the HC, and the dynamics of the system is defined by a neural message-passing algorithm, Belief Propagation (BP), working near the critical point of the human connectome. We show that in the absence of direct external stimuli the BP algorithm converges to a spatial map of activations that is similar to the DMN. Moreover, we computed, using Susceptibility Propagation (SP), the matrix of correlations between the different regions and show that the modules defined by a clustering of this matrix resemble several Resting States Networks determined experimentally. Both results suggest that the functional DMN and RSNs can be seen as simple consequences of the anatomical structure of the brain and a neural message-passing dynamics between macroscopic regions.

A lot of evidences implying fractal properties such as 1/f power spectrums have been also observed in resting state fMRI time series. To explain the fractal behavior in rs-fMRI, we have proposed the fractal-based model of resting state hemodynamic response function (rs-HRF) whose properties can be summarized by a fractal exponent. Here we show, through a simulation studies, that the fractal behavior of cerebral hemodynamics may cause significant distortion of network properties between neuronal activities and BOLD signals. We simulated neuronal population activities based on the stochastic neural field model from the Macaque brain network, and then obtained their corresponding BOLD signals by convolving them with the rs-HRF filter. The precision of centrality estimated in each node was deteriorated overall in three networks based on transfer entropy, mutual information, and Pearson correlation; particularly the distortion of transfer entropy was more sensitive to the standard deviation of fractal exponents. A node with high centrality was resilient to desynchronized fractal dynamics over all frequencies while a node with small centrality exhibited huge distortion of both wavelet correlation and centrality over low frequencies. This theoretical expectation indicates that the difference of fractal exponents between brain regions leads to discrepancy of statistical network properties, especially at nodes with small centrality, between neuronal activities and BOLD signals, and that the traditional definitions of resting state functional connectivity may not effectively reflect the dynamics of spontaneous neuronal activities.", - "summary_grounded_pdf": false, - "verification_log": { - "final_url": "https://arxiv.org/abs/1208.0924", - "http_status": 200, - "pdf_sample_score": null, - "redirect_chain": [], - "summary_grounding_score": 1.0, - "title_token_overlap_score": 1.0, - "url_resolves": true, - "verified_at": "2026-05-06T21:34:15Z" - } - }, - { - "bibliographic_info": { - "authors": [ - "D.

Here we investigate the hierarchical modular (or \"modules-within-modules\") decomposition of human brain functional networks, measured using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) in 18 healthy volunteers under no-task or resting conditions. We used a customized template to extract networks with more than 1800 regional nodes, and we applied a fast algorithm to identify nested modular structure at several hierarchical levels. We used mutual information, 0 < I < 1, to estimate the similarity of community structure of networks in different subjects, and to identify the individual network that is most representative of the group. Results show that human brain functional networks have a hierarchical modular organization with a fair degree of similarity between subjects, I=0.63. The largest 5 modules at the highest level of the hierarchy were medial occipital, lateral occipital, central, parieto-frontal and fronto-temporal systems; occipital modules demonstrated less sub-modular organization than modules comprising regions of multimodal association cortex. Connector nodes and hubs, with a key role in inter-modular connectivity, were also concentrated in association cortical areas. We conclude that methods are available for hierarchical modular decomposition of large numbers of high resolution brain functional networks using computationally expedient algorithms. This could enable future investigations of Simon's original hypothesis that hierarchy or near-decomposability of physical symbol systems is a critical design feature for their fast adaptivity to changing environmental conditions.", - "summary_grounded_pdf": false, - "verification_log": { - "final_url": "https://arxiv.org/abs/1004.3153", - "http_status": 200, - "pdf_sample_score": null, - "redirect_chain": [], - "summary_grounding_score": 1.0, - "title_token_overlap_score": 1.0, - "url_resolves": true, - "verified_at": "2026-05-06T21:34:16Z" - } - }, - { - "bibliographic_info": { - "authors": [ - "Uttam Kumar", - "Kalpana Dhanik" - ], - "title": "Decoding auditory deprivation: resting-state fMRI insights into deafness and brain plasticity", - "venue": "Brain Structure and Function", - "year": 2024 - }, - "primary_pointer": "https://doi.org/10.1007/s00429-023-02757-1", - "summary": "", - "summary_grounded_pdf": false, - "verification_log": { - "final_url": "https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s00429-023-02757-1", - "http_status": 200, - "pdf_sample_score": null, - "redirect_chain": [ - "https://doi.org/10.1007/s00429-023-02757-1", - "https://link.springer.com/10.1007/s00429-023-02757-1", - "https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s00429-023-02757-1", - "https://idp.springer.com/authorize?response_type=cookie&client_id=springerlink&redirect_uri=https%3A%2F%2Flink.springer.com%2Farticle%2F10.1007%2Fs00429-023-02757-1" - ], - "summary_grounding_score": 0.0, - "title_token_overlap_score": 1.0, - "url_resolves": true, - "verified_at": "2026-05-06T21:38:04Z" - } - }, - { - "bibliographic_info": { - "authors": [ - "L.

Many studies of conditions such as stroke, limb amputation, and vision loss have examined how removal of input changes brain function. However, an important question yet to be answered is: when input is lost, does the brain change its connectivity to preferentially use some remaining inputs over others? In individuals with healthy vision, the central portion of the retina is preferentially used for everyday visual tasks, due to its ability to discriminate fine details. When central vision is lost in conditions like macular degeneration, peripheral vision must be relied upon for those everyday tasks, with some portions receiving “preferential” usage over others. Using resting‐state fMRI collected during total darkness, we examined how deprivation and preferential usage influence the intrinsic functional connectivity of sensory cortex by studying individuals with selective vision loss due to late stages of macular degeneration. Specifically, we examined functional connectivity between category‐selective visual areas and the cortical representation of three areas of the retina: the lesioned area, a preferentially used region of the intact retina, and a non‐preferentially used region. We found that cortical regions representing spared portions of the peripheral retina, regardless of whether they are preferentially used, exhibit plasticity of intrinsic functional connectivity in macular degeneration. Cortical representations of spared peripheral retinal locations showed stronger connectivity to MT, a region involved in processing motion. These results suggest that the long‐term loss of central vision can produce widespread effects throughout spared representations in early visual cortex, regardless of whether those representations are preferentially used. These findings support the idea that connections to visual cortex maintain the capacity for change well after critical periods of visual development.", - "summary_grounded_pdf": null, - "verification_log": { - "final_url": "https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/hbm.70064", - "http_status": 403, - "pdf_sample_score": null, - "redirect_chain": [ - "https://doi.org/10.1002/hbm.70064" - ], - "summary_grounding_score": 1.0, - "title_token_overlap_score": 1.0, - "url_resolves": true, - "verified_at": "2026-05-06T21:38:07Z" - } - }, - { - "bibliographic_info": { - "authors": [ - "L.

When cognitive impairment reaches a certain level, human errors occur and may even result in accidents. Previous research has shown that sensory gating is a basic mechanism in cognitive function, but only limited studies have so far reported how it is affected by sleep deprivation. This study aimed to analyze the effects of sleep deprivation on sensory gating and its cognitive and neural mechanisms. Thirty-six healthy subjects participated in our study. The resting-state, auditory P50-task electroencephalography (EEG) recordings and the psychomotor vigilance task (PVT) were performed at resting wakefulness (RW) and after 36 h of total sleep deprivation (TSD). Changes in P50 suppression before and after sleep deprivation were recorded, and the isolated effective coherence (iCoh) was employed for analyzing effective connectivity based on EEG data during the resting-state and P50 tasks. Subjects demonstrated reduced P50 suppression and prolonged PVT reaction time after TSD compared with RW. Effective connectivity analysis of resting-state EEG data showed that sleep deprivation decreased the connectivity from the right middle occipital gyrus (RMOG)/Rcuneus to left inferior/middle temporal gyrus (LITG/LMTG) and left parahippocampal/fusiform gyrus (LPH/LFG). EEG data analysis during the P50 task showed that, in addition to the aforementioned connectivity changes, the directed high-frequency effective connectivity from the left precuneus to the left superior/middle frontal gyrus (LSFG/LMFG), LITG/LMTG, LPH/LFG, and left middle occipital gyrus (LMOG)/Lcuneus increased. P50 suppression in Cz positively correlated with PVT reaction time. This study reveals that the precuneus is a key brain region in neural network correlates of sensory gating, and that changes in its effective connectivity with other regions (including LSFG/LMFG, LPH/LFG, LMOG/LCuneus, and LITG/LMTG) are important for decreasing sensory gating after TSD.", - "summary_grounded_pdf": false, - "verification_log": { - "final_url": "https://linkinghub.elsevier.com/retrieve/pii/S105381191930343X", - "http_status": 200, - "pdf_sample_score": null, - "redirect_chain": [ - "https://doi.org/10.1016/j.neuroimage.2019.04.057" - ], - "summary_grounding_score": 1.0, - "title_token_overlap_score": 1.0, - "url_resolves": true, - "verified_at": "2026-05-06T21:38:10Z" - } - } - ] - }, - "target_n": 5, - "term_normalized": "how does the intrinsic organization of human brain functional networks change when sensory input is experimentally reduced, and does this reorganization manifest as altered modularity and global efficiency in resting-state fmri", - "ttls": { - "arxiv": 2592000, - "doi_bib": 7776000, - "http_head": 604800 - } -} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/state/librarian-cache/95114363fc8298123769bb97d25e449a7b19923e577eb5930b5587fa63a1e4f7.json b/state/librarian-cache/95114363fc8298123769bb97d25e449a7b19923e577eb5930b5587fa63a1e4f7.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..596688fe --- /dev/null +++ b/state/librarian-cache/95114363fc8298123769bb97d25e449a7b19923e577eb5930b5587fa63a1e4f7.json @@ -0,0 +1,405 @@ +{ + "fetched_at": "2026-05-07T03:28:35Z", + "field": "physics", + "prompt_version": "1.1.0", + "result": { + "cache_status": "miss", + "context": { + "field": "physics", + "idea_body_excerpt": "---\nfield: physics\nsubmitter: google.gemma-3-27b-it\n---\n\n# Statistical Analysis of Early Universe CMB Fluctuations and Topological Defects\n\n**Field**: physics\n\n## Research question\n\nTo what extent do non-Gaussian signatures in the Cosmic Microwave Background temperature anisotropies deviate from the inflationary LCDM baseline, and can these deviations constrain the formation energy of cosmic topological defects?\n\n## Motivation\n\nStandard cosmological models assume primordial fluctuations are nearly Gaussian, yet theories of symmetry breaking in the early universe predict topological defects (cosmic strings, domain walls) that induce specific non-Gaussian imprints.

We generate 84 statistically independent maps on a 7.2 degree field of view, which we use to derive basic statistical estimators such as the one-point distribution and two-point correlation functions. At high multipoles, the mean angular power spectrum of string-induced CMB temperature anisotropies can be described by a power law slowly decaying as \\ell^{-p}, with p=0.889 (+0.001,-0.090) (including only systematic errors). Such a behavior suggests that a nonvanishing string contribution to the overall CMB anisotropies may become the dominant source of fluctuations at small angular scales. We therefore discuss how well the temperature gradient magnitude operator can trace strings in the context of a typical arcminute diffraction-limited experiment. Including both the thermal and nonlinear kinetic Sunyaev-Zel'dovich effects, the Ostriker-Vishniac effect, and the currently favored adiabatic primary anisotropies, we find that, on such a map, strings should be ``eye visible,'' with at least of order ten distinctive string features observable on a 7.2 degree gradient map, for tensions U down to GU \\simeq 2 x 10^{-7} (in Planck units).

Our approach involves generating a single realisation of the initial power spectrum of density perturbations and studying how truncation of this power spectrum on scales larger than L_cut affects the structure of dark matter haloes at z=0. In particular, we have examined the cases of L_cut = f_cut L_box with f_cut=1 (i.e. no truncation), 1/2, 1/3 and 1/4. In common with previous studies, we find that the suppression of long wavelength perturbations reduces the strength of clustering, as measured by a suppression of the 2-point correlation function xi(r), and reduces the numbers of the most massive haloes, as reflected in the depletion of the high mass end of the mass function n(M). Interestingly, we find that truncation has little impact on the internal properties of haloes. The masses of high mass haloes decrease in a systematic manner as L_cut is reduced, but the distribution of concentrations is unaffected. On the other hand, the median spin parameter is ~50% lower in runs with f_cut<1. We argue that this is an imprint of the linear growth phase of the halo's angular momentum by tidal torquing, and that the absence of any measurable trend in concentration and the weak trend observed in halo shape reflect the importance of virialisation and complex mass accretion histories for these quantities. These results are of interest for studies that require high mass resolution and statistical samples of simulated haloes, such as simulations of the population of first stars.

This paper describes a method by which the data from many cascading failure simulations can be transformed into a graph-based model of influences that provides actionable information about the many ways that cascades propagate in a particular system.

Despite their promising capabilities, the lack of transparency in AI models poses significant challenges, particularly in medical contexts where reliability is a mandatory aspect. However, it appears that explainability is inversely proportional to accuracy. For this reason, achieving transparency without compromising predictive accuracy remains a key challenge.\n\n\nMETHODS\nThis paper presents a novel method, namely Rad4XCNN, to enhance the predictive power of CNN-derived features with the inherent interpretability of radiomic features. Rad4XCNN diverges from conventional methods based on saliency maps, by associating intelligible meaning to CNN-derived features by means of Radiomics, offering new perspectives on explanation methods beyond visualization maps.\n\n\nRESULTS\nUsing a breast cancer classification task as a case study, we evaluated Rad4XCNN on ultrasound imaging datasets, including an online dataset and two in-house datasets for internal and external validation. Some key results are: (i) CNN-derived features guarantee more robust accuracy when compared against ViT-derived and radiomic features; (ii) conventional visualization map methods for explanation present several pitfalls; (iii) Rad4XCNN does not sacrifice model accuracy for their explainability; (iv) Rad4XCNN provides a global explanation enabling the physician to extract global insights and findings.\n\n\nCONCLUSIONS\nOur method can mitigate some concerns related to the explainability-accuracy trade-off.

This retrospective analysis utilized data from a single eye of each patient, with preoperative biometric measurements obtained using the IOL Master 700. The study considered established formulas such as Haigis, Hoffer Q, Holladay 1, Holladay 2, and SRK/T, as well as modern formulas including Barrett Universal II, Cooke K6, EVO 2.0, Hill-RBF, Hoffer QST, Kane, Olsen, and PEARL-DGS.

The absolute prediction error (APE) of spherical equivalent (SE) and cylinder (CYL) was calculated based on K and TK (including posterior corneal surface) data recorded 6 weeks after IOL implantation. APE was calculated as the difference between the postoperative refraction and the refractive error predicted by three classic IOL calculation methods (Haigis/Haigis-T, Barrett Universal II, Barrett Toric Calculator) and two new formulas developed for TK (Barrett TK Universal II, Barrett TK Toric). For APE in SE, the Haigis-T (K versus TK) and Barrett Universal II (K) versus Barrett TK Universal II (TK) were compared. For APE in CYL, the Haigis-T (K versus TK) and Barrett Toric Calculator (K) versus Barrett TK Toric formula (TK) were compared.\n\n\nRESULTS\nMean APE in SE and CYL was lower based on TK values compared to K, with a mean APE difference (K - TK) of 0.011 ± 0.107 diopters (D) (SE Haigis-T; 95% confidence interval [CI]: -0.004 to infinity), 0.016 ± 0.113 D (SE: Barrett Universal II versus Barrett TK Universal II; 95% CI: 0.0005 to infinity), 0.103 ± 0.173 D (CYL: Haigis-T; 95% CI: 0.0791 to infinity), and 0.020 ± 0.148 D (CYL: Barrett Toric versus Barrett TK Toric; 95% CI: -0.0002 to infinity). APE in SE was within ±0.50 D in 86% (Barrett TK Universal II) versus 84% (Barrett Universal II) of eyes. APE in CYL was within ±0.50 D in 58% (Haigis from TK) versus 44% (Haigis from K) of eyes.\n\n\nCONCLUSIONS\nIn comparison to standard K, a higher prediction accuracy can be expected by using TK values along with the two newly developed formulas.

Two academic otolaryngologists and two LLMs independently evaluated each case. All LLMs operated in deterministic mode (temperature = 0) with standardized single-pass prompting in isolated sessions. Diagnostic accuracy, inter-rater agreement (Cohen’s κ), and subspecialty-specific performance were analyzed. A post hoc power analysis (Cohen’s h = 0.22; α = 0.05) assessed the ability to detect moderate effect sizes.Results: Both LLMs achieved a diagnostic accuracy of 90.0% (63/70), with no significant difference between them (p = 1.00) and substantial inter-model agreement (κ = 0.68). Human evaluators achieved accuracies of 97.1% and 92.9%, with fair inter-rater agreement (κ = 0.26).

To address these challenges, we argue that post-hoc attribution can be reframed as a reasoning problem, where answers are decomposed into constituent units, each tied to specific context. We first show that prompting models to generate such decompositions alongside attributions improves performance. Building on this, we introduce DecompTune, a post-training method that teaches models to produce answer decompositions as intermediate reasoning steps. We curate a diverse dataset of complex QA tasks, annotated with decompositions by a strong LLM, and post-train Qwen-2.5 (7B and 14B) using a two-stage SFT + GRPO pipeline with task-specific curated rewards.

Recent advances in machine learning, particularly Graph Neural Networks (GNNs), offer a flexible, topology-aware alternative for power flow solvers, but existing models lack generalizability and fail to incorporate critical topological features. This work presents the first framework for assessing the generalization performance of these graph-based solvers, including a generalization score to evaluate this model robustness.

In this preliminary exploratory study, we investigated the applicability of LLMs for Code Clone Detection (CCD), a non-generative task. By building a mono-lingual and cross-lingual CCD dataset derived from CodeNet, we first investigated two different prompts using ChatGPT to detect Type-4 code clones in Java-Java and Java-Ruby pairs in a zero-shot setting. We then conducted an analysis to understand the strengths and weaknesses of ChatGPT in CCD. ChatGPT surpasses the baselines in cross-language CCD attaining an F1-score of 0.877 and achieves comparable performance to fully fine-tuned models for mono-lingual CCD, with an F1-score of 0.878. Also, the prompt and the difficulty level of the problems has an impact on the performance of ChatGPT. Finally, we provide insights and future directions based on our initial analysis 1.1Our code and data is open-sourced at https://github.com/mkhfring/llm-for-ccd", - "summary_grounded_pdf": null, - "verification_log": { - "final_url": "https://dl.acm.org/doi/10.1145/3643916.3645030", - "http_status": 403, - "pdf_sample_score": null, - "redirect_chain": [ - "https://doi.org/10.1145/3643916.3645030" - ], - "summary_grounding_score": 1.0, - "title_token_overlap_score": 1.0, - "url_resolves": true, - "verified_at": "2026-05-07T01:30:14Z" - } - }, - { - "bibliographic_info": { - "authors": [ - "Supriti Vijay", - "Aman Priyanshu" - ], - "title": "NERDA-Con: Extending NER models for Continual Learning - Integrating Distinct Tasks and Updating Distribution Shifts", - "venue": "arXiv.org", - "year": 2022 - }, - "primary_pointer": "https://doi.org/10.48550/arXiv.2206.14607", - "summary": "With increasing applications in areas such as biomedical information extraction pipelines and social media analytics, Named Entity Recognition (NER) has become an indispensable tool for knowledge extraction. However, with the gradual shift in language structure and vocabulary, NERs are plagued with distribution shifts, making them redundant or not as profitable without re-training. Re-training NERs based on Large Language Models (LLMs) from scratch over newly acquired data poses economic disadvantages. In contrast, re-training only with newly acquired data will result in Catastrophic Forgetting of previously acquired knowledge. Therefore, we propose NERDA-Con, a pipeline for training NERs with LLM bases by incorporating the concept of Elastic Weight Consolidation (EWC) into the NER fine-tuning NERDA pipeline.

SwallowCode ($\\approx$16.1 billion tokens) refines Python snippets from The-Stack-v2 through a novel four-stage pipeline: syntax validation, pylint-based style filtering, and a two-stage LLM rewriting process that enforces style conformity and transforms snippets into self-contained, algorithmically efficient examples. Unlike prior methods that rely on exclusionary filtering or limited transformations, our transform-and-retain approach refines low-quality code, maximizing data utility. SwallowMath ($\\approx$2.3 billion tokens) enhances Finemath-4+ by removing boilerplate, restoring context, and reformatting solutions into concise, step-by-step explanations. Within a fixed 50 billion token training budget, continual pre-training of Llama-3.1-8B with SwallowCode boosts pass@1 by +17.0 on HumanEval and +16.1 on HumanEval+ compared to Stack-Edu, surpassing the baseline model's code generation capabilities. Similarly, substituting SwallowMath yields +12.4 accuracy on GSM8K and +7.6 on MATH.

To further improve data quality, numerous training data optimization techniques have been proposed; however, their overall effectiveness has not been systematically evaluated. To bridge this gap, we conduct the first large-scale empirical study, examining five widely-used training data optimization techniques and their pairwise combinations for LLM-based code generation across three benchmarks and four LLMs. Our results show that data synthesis is the most effective technique for improving functional correctness and reducing code smells, although it performs relatively worse on code maintainability compared to data refactoring, cleaning, and selection. Regarding combinations, we find that most combinations do not further improve functional correctness but can effectively enhance code quality (code smells and maintainability). Among all combinations, data synthesis combined with data refactoring achieves the strongest overall performance. Furthermore, our fine-grained analysis reinforces these findings and provides deeper insights into how individual techniques and their combinations influence code generation effectiveness.

Nevertheless, all the existing proposals and analyses are only valid in two spatial dimensions. In this work, we propose the idea of using hedgehog topological defects to characterize the plasticity of 3D glasses and to geometrically predict the location of their soft spots. We corroborate our proposal by simulating a Kremer-Grest 3D polymer glass, and by using both the normal mode eigenvector field and the displacement field around large plastic events. Contrary to the 2D case, the sign of the topological charge defined from the eigenvector field is ambiguous and the geometry of the topological defects, whether radial or hyperbolic, plays a fundamental role in 3D. In fact, we find that the topological hedgehog defects relevant for plasticity are those exhibiting hyperbolic geometry, resembling the saddle-point structure of 2D topological defects with negative winding number (anti-vortices).

Approaches based on Deep Artificial Neural Networks (DANN) are very popular in our days. Depending on the learning task, the exact form of DANNs is determined via their multi-layer architecture, activation functions and the so-called loss function. However, for a majority of deep learning approaches based on DANNs, the kernel structure of neural signal processing remains the same, where the node response is encoded as a linear superposition of neural activity, while the non-linearity is triggered by the activation functions. In the current paper, we suggest to analyze the neural signal processing in DANNs from the point of view of homogeneous chaos theory as known from polynomial chaos expansion (PCE). From the PCE perspective, the (linear) response on each node of a DANN could be seen as a $1^{st}$ degree multi-variate polynomial of single neurons from the previous layer, i.e. linear weighted sum of monomials. From this point of view, the conventional DANN structure relies implicitly (but erroneously) on a Gaussian distribution of neural signals. Additionally, this view revels that by design DANNs do not necessarily fulfill any orthogonality or orthonormality condition for a majority of data-driven applications. Therefore, the prevailing handling of neural signals in DANNs could lead to redundant representation as any neural signal could contain some partial information from other neural signals. To tackle that challenge, we suggest to employ the data-driven generalization of PCE theory known as arbitrary polynomial chaos (aPC) to construct a corresponding multi-variate orthonormal representations on each node of a DANN to obtain Deep arbitrary polynomial chaos neural networks.", + "claimed_authors": [ + "Sergey Oladyshkin", + "Timothy Praditia", + "Ilja Kröker", + "Farid Mohammadi", + "Wolfgang Nowak", + "Sebastian Otte" + ], + "claimed_title": "The Deep Arbitrary Polynomial Chaos Neural Network or how Deep Artificial Neural Networks could benefit from Data-Driven Homogeneous Chaos Theory", + "claimed_venue": "arXiv", + "claimed_year": 2023, + "primary_pointer": "2306.14753" + }, + "details": "query-relevance 0.286 < 0.3 (query='Predicting Molecular Dipole Moments with Graph Neural Networks chemistry', candidate_title='The Deep Arbitrary Polynomial Chaos Neural Network or how Deep Artificial Neural Networks could benefit from Data-Driven Homogeneous Chaos Theory')", + "failed_at": "2026-05-07T03:34:27Z", + "reason": "query_irrelevant" + }, + { + "candidate": { + "backend": "arxiv", + "claimed_abstract": "Providing a model that achieves a strong predictive performance and is simultaneously interpretable by humans is one of the most difficult challenges in machine learning research due to the conflicting nature of these two objectives.

We show that precious information is contained in the spectrum of the precision matrix that can be extracted once the training of the model is completed. In particular, the eigenvectors explain the directions of maximum sensitivity of the model revealing the active subspace and suggesting potential applications for supervised dimensionality reduction. At the same time, the eigenvectors highlight the relationship in terms of absolute variation between the input and the latent variables, thereby allowing us to extract a ranking of the input variables based on their importance to the prediction task enhancing the model interpretability.

For deep convolutional neural networks, dropout is known to work well in fully-connected layers. However, its effect in convolutional and pooling layers is still not clear. This paper demonstrates that max-pooling dropout is equivalent to randomly picking activation based on a multinomial distribution at training time. In light of this insight, we advocate employing our proposed probabilistic weighted pooling, instead of commonly used max-pooling, to act as model averaging at test time. Empirical evidence validates the superiority of probabilistic weighted pooling.

Elaborately designing dropout training simultaneously in max-pooling and fully-connected layers, we achieve state-of-the-art performance on MNIST, and very competitive results on CIFAR-10 and CIFAR-100, relative to other approaches without data augmentation.

These challenges hinder the deployment of property prediction models on resource-constrained devices such as smartphones and IoT devices. Therefore, optimizing storage, reducing resource consumption, and improving inference speed are crucial. This paper presents a systematic approach to molecular networks by integrating GNN models with the DoReFa-Net quantization algorithm. The proposed method aims to enhance computational efficiency while maintaining predictive performance, enabling lightweight yet effective models suitable for molecular task. The study investigates the impact of different bitwidth quantization levels on model performance, using metrics such as RMSE and MAE. Results show that, for physical chemistry datasets, the effectiveness of quantization is highly dependent on the model architecture.

Approaches based on Deep Artificial Neural Networks (DANN) are very popular in our days. Depending on the learning task, the exact form of DANNs is determined via their multi-layer architecture, activation functions and the so-called loss function. However, for a majority of deep learning approaches based on DANNs, the kernel structure of neural signal processing remains the same, where the node response is encoded as a linear superposition of neural activity, while the non-linearity is triggered by the activation functions. In the current paper, we suggest to analyze the neural signal processing in DANNs from the point of view of homogeneous chaos theory as known from polynomial chaos expansion (PCE). From the PCE perspective, the (linear) response on each node of a DANN could be seen as a $1^{st}$ degree multi-variate polynomial of single neurons from the previous layer, i.e. linear weighted sum of monomials. From this point of view, the conventional DANN structure relies implicitly (but erroneously) on a Gaussian distribution of neural signals. Additionally, this view revels that by design DANNs do not necessarily fulfill any orthogonality or orthonormality condition for a majority of data-driven applications. Therefore, the prevailing handling of neural signals in DANNs could lead to redundant representation as any neural signal could contain some partial information from other neural signals. To tackle that challenge, we suggest to employ the data-driven generalization of PCE theory known as arbitrary polynomial chaos (aPC) to construct a corresponding multi-variate orthonormal representations on each node of a DANN to obtain Deep arbitrary polynomial chaos neural networks.", - "summary_grounded_pdf": false, - "verification_log": { - "final_url": "https://arxiv.org/abs/2306.14753", - "http_status": 200, - "pdf_sample_score": null, - "redirect_chain": [], - "summary_grounding_score": 1.0, - "title_token_overlap_score": 1.0, - "url_resolves": true, - "verified_at": "2026-05-07T02:23:22Z" - } - }, - { - "bibliographic_info": { - "authors": [ - "Danny D'Agostino", - "Ilija Ilievski", - "Christine Annette Shoemaker" - ], - "title": "Learning Active Subspaces and Discovering Important Features with Gaussian Radial Basis Functions Neural Networks", - "venue": "arXiv", - "year": 2023 - }, - "primary_pointer": "2307.05639", - "summary": "Providing a model that achieves a strong predictive performance and is simultaneously interpretable by humans is one of the most difficult challenges in machine learning research due to the conflicting nature of these two objectives.

We show that precious information is contained in the spectrum of the precision matrix that can be extracted once the training of the model is completed. In particular, the eigenvectors explain the directions of maximum sensitivity of the model revealing the active subspace and suggesting potential applications for supervised dimensionality reduction. At the same time, the eigenvectors highlight the relationship in terms of absolute variation between the input and the latent variables, thereby allowing us to extract a ranking of the input variables based on their importance to the prediction task enhancing the model interpretability.

In the case of regression tasks, prediction intervals (PIs) should be provided along with the deterministic predictions of deep learning models. Such PIs are useful or \"high-quality\" as long as they are sufficiently narrow and capture most of the probability density. In this paper, we present a method to learn prediction intervals for regression-based neural networks automatically in addition to the conventional target predictions. In particular, we train two companion neural networks: one that uses one output, the target estimate, and another that uses two outputs, the upper and lower bounds of the corresponding PI. Our main contribution is the design of a novel loss function for the PI-generation network that takes into account the output of the target-estimation network and has two optimization objectives: minimizing the mean prediction interval width and ensuring the PI integrity using constraints that maximize the prediction interval probability coverage implicitly. Furthermore, we introduce a self-adaptive coefficient that balances both objectives within the loss function, which alleviates the task of fine-tuning. Experiments using a synthetic dataset, eight benchmark datasets, and a real-world crop yield prediction dataset showed that our method was able to maintain a nominal probability coverage and produce significantly narrower PIs without detriment to its target estimation accuracy when compared to those PIs generated by three state-of-the-art neural-network-based methods.

Approaches based on Deep Artificial Neural Networks (DANN) are very popular in our days. Depending on the learning task, the exact form of DANNs is determined via their multi-layer architecture, activation functions and the so-called loss function. However, for a majority of deep learning approaches based on DANNs, the kernel structure of neural signal processing remains the same, where the node response is encoded as a linear superposition of neural activity, while the non-linearity is triggered by the activation functions. In the current paper, we suggest to analyze the neural signal processing in DANNs from the point of view of homogeneous chaos theory as known from polynomial chaos expansion (PCE). From the PCE perspective, the (linear) response on each node of a DANN could be seen as a $1^{st}$ degree multi-variate polynomial of single neurons from the previous layer, i.e. linear weighted sum of monomials. From this point of view, the conventional DANN structure relies implicitly (but erroneously) on a Gaussian distribution of neural signals. Additionally, this view revels that by design DANNs do not necessarily fulfill any orthogonality or orthonormality condition for a majority of data-driven applications. Therefore, the prevailing handling of neural signals in DANNs could lead to redundant representation as any neural signal could contain some partial information from other neural signals.

We show that precious information is contained in the spectrum of the precision matrix that can be extracted once the training of the model is completed. In particular, the eigenvectors explain the directions of maximum sensitivity of the model revealing the active subspace and suggesting potential applications for supervised dimensionality reduction. At the same time, the eigenvectors highlight the relationship in terms of absolute variation between the input and the latent variables, thereby allowing us to extract a ranking of the input variables based on their importance to the prediction task enhancing the model interpretability.

However, this approach faces fundamental challenges in graphs due to their discrete, non-Euclidean nature -- view generation often breaks semantic validity and similarity verification becomes unreliable. Through analyzing 11 real-world graphs, we discover a universal pattern transcending the homophily-heterophily dichotomy: label consistency systematically diminishes as structural distance increases, manifesting as smooth decay in homophily graphs and oscillatory decay in heterophily graphs. We establish theoretical guarantees for this pattern through random walk theory, proving label distribution convergence and characterizing the mechanisms behind different decay behaviors. This discovery reveals that graphs naturally encode relative similarity patterns, where structurally closer nodes exhibit collectively stronger semantic relationships. Leveraging this insight, we propose RELGCL, a novel GCL framework with complementary pairwise and listwise implementations that preserve these inherent patterns through collective similarity objectives.

Existing approaches predominantly rely on node attributes or structural information for contrastive analysis. However, in real-world applications, node attribute information can be incomplete or entirely absent, while structure-enhancement methods often generate false positive samples. To mitigate these issues, we propose a feature augmentation-based graph contrastive learning method (FA-GCL) that enhances the accuracy and robustness of graph representations. Specifically, our approach first implements a dynamic dropout-based feature augmentation technique, which adjusts dropout rates dynamically using a triangular wave function, thereby significantly improving model performance. Additionally, we introduce two complementary feature augmentation methods based on singular value decomposition: a theoretically rigorous full SVD approach and a computationally efficient randomized projection-based SVD method that achieves linear complexity while preserving spectral properties. Both methods add controlled noise to singular values and reconstruct features to create high-quality augmented samples. Comprehensive experiments were conducted on twelve widely used graph datasets.

Graph contrastive learning aims to learn from high-order collaborative filtering signals with unsupervised augmentation on the user-item bipartite graph, which predominantly relies on the multi-task learning framework involving both the pair-wise recommendation loss and the contrastive loss. This decoupled design can cause inconsistent optimization direction from different losses, which leads to longer convergence time and even sub-optimal performance. Besides, the self-supervised contrastive loss falls short in alleviating the data sparsity issue in RecSys as it learns to differentiate users/items from different views without providing extra supervised collaborative filtering signals during augmentations. In this paper, we propose Mixed Supervised Graph Contrastive Learning for Recommendation (MixSGCL) to address these concerns. MixSGCL originally integrates the training of recommendation and unsupervised contrastive losses into a supervised contrastive learning loss to align the two tasks within one optimization direction. To cope with the data sparsity issue, instead unsupervised augmentation, we further propose node-wise and edge-wise mixup to mine more direct supervised collaborative filtering signals based on existing user-item interactions.

To this end, we relate GCL with invariant rationale discovery, and propose a new framework, Rationale-aware Graph Contrastive Learning (RGCL). Specifically, without supervision signals, RGCL uses a rationale generator to reveal salient features about graph instance-discrimination as the rationale, and then creates rationale-aware views for contrastive learning. This rationale-aware pre-training scheme endows the backbone model with the powerful representation ability, further facilitating the fine-tuning on downstream tasks. On MNIST-Superpixel and MUTAG datasets, visual inspections on the discovered rationales showcase that the rationale generator successfully captures the salient features (i.e. distinguishing semantic nodes in graphs).

First, in full-batch settings, we show that perfect alignment of positive pairs is unattainable when negative-pair similarities fall below a threshold, and this misalignment can be mitigated by incorporating within-view negative pairs into the objective. Second, in mini-batch settings, smaller batch sizes induce stronger separation among negative pairs in the embedding space, i.e., higher variance in their similarities, which in turn degrades the quality of learned representations compared to full-batch settings. To address this, we propose an auxiliary loss that reduces the variance of negative-pair similarities in mini-batch settings.

To this end, we propose Khan-GCL, a novel framework that integrates the Kolmogorov-Arnold Network (KAN) into the GCL encoder architecture, substantially enhancing its representational capacity. Furthermore, we exploit the rich information embedded within KAN coefficient parameters to develop two novel critical feature identification techniques that enable the generation of semantically meaningful hard negative samples for each graph representation.

Manual audit (per user pressure on "how specific are the topically relevant papers?") revealed that under v1.1.0: - 5 of 8 cross-domain fields had field-adjacent first-verified citations that didn't address the user's specific sub-question (e.g. "GNN for social influence" admitted for a "GNN for dipole moments" query because both share {graph, neural, network}) - PROJ-261 returned LLM-code-generation papers but none specifically about *code-duplication's* effect - PROJ-262 returned 9 GNN papers but several were unrelated GNN applications Fix: added LLM-based topical-relevance judge as Check 3.5 between verification and PDF-sample. One LLM call per surviving candidate; strict yes/no on "does this paper directly address the user's specific question, not just the broad field?". Marginal-fallback rule: if judge rejects ALL candidates, admit the rejected set with `topically_marginal=True` flag in bibliographic_info — better to surface near-relevant work labeled honestly than to be silent. Initial v1.2.0 prompt was too strict (rejected animal-model gut-microbiome studies as "non-human, non-observational"); retuned v1.3.0 with explicit "lit-review-style" guidance allowing same-mechanism evidence across populations/methodologies. Re-runs after fix: - Phase 2 regression: 104/104 PASS (added 9 judge tests, 7 parser + 2 real-LLM smoke verifying judge correctly says NO to "Social Influence GNN" for a dipole-moment query and YES to PhysNet) - US4 cross-domain: 8/8 PASS, 37 verified-citation total under v1.3.0 (vs. 58 under v1.1.0 — judge filtered field-adjacent candidates): * 5/8 fields bullseye-on-topic (biology, chemistry, materials, physics, psychology) * 1/8 adjacent-relevant (neuroscience: brain network paper) * 2/8 marginal-fallback (CS small-world+convergence, statistics planned-vs-achieved-power) — narrow questions with no SS+arXiv match; surfaced as labeled marginal evidence - PROJ-261: judgment=verified; 7 marginal-fallback citations (judge correctly notes no narrow match for code-duplication effect; closest available LLM-code-evaluation papers labeled) - PROJ-262: judgment=verified; 7 strict-topical citations (Q-DFTNet, PhysNet, MolNet_Equi all bullseye on GNN-dipole-moment prediction) The marginal flag renders as "⚠️ topically marginal — admitted as fallback when judge rejected all stricter matches" in the Search trail subsection so downstream agents see honest provenance. Wiped stale v1.0.0 + v1.1.0 caches. Bumped librarian prompt_version 1.1.0 -> 1.2.0 -> 1.3.0.

While both are computed from the same code corpus, they measure different phenomena: structural redundancy versus model prediction performance.

These are independent measurement modalities—one is a structural property of the code, the other is a model's behavioral response to that code. ### Triviality check **Verdict**: pass -Both outcomes would be informative: a negative correlation would suggest duplication aids memorization through repeated training exposure; a positive correlation would suggest redundancy degrades generalization. A null result would indicate duplication has no systematic effect on LLM understanding.

We identified 13 structural alerts for respiratory irritants and 18 structural alerts for respiratory sensitizers. We also developed a set of models for each hazard using different types of molecular descriptors and ML techniques. Five of the best performing models were combined into a consensus classification model for respiratory irritation, and four individual models were used to develop a consensus classification model for respiratory sensitization. The prediction accuracy of the respiratory irritation consensus model was 84% on the training set and 88% on the test set, and the accuracy of the respiratory sensitization consensus model was 86% on both training and test data sets. A combination of generated structural alerts and ML models was used to screen occupational- and military-relevant chemicals.

Traditional methods, which rely heavily on molecular descriptors, often suffer from poor interpretability. Here, we introduce a novel framework that integrates SMILES fragmentation strategies with a 1D convolutional neural network deep learning model (denoted as the SFDL) for predicting chemical toxicity and associated SAs. Four distinct fragmentation methods, single-atom, single-symbol, atom-centered, and symbol-centered, were evaluated to generate tokenizers (denoted as GenTok) from 581537 high-interest PubChem compounds. The symbol-centered fragmentation approach demonstrated superior performance on the ISSSTY AMES mutagenicity data set (AUC = 0.87, PRAUC = 0.90). This SFDL-GenTok strategy demonstrated robust predictive performance across 6 out of the 10 toxicity end points (AUC = 0.81∼0.93, PRAUC = 0.70∼0.94). Based on these models, toxicity predictions were conducted for 28160 synthetic chemicals. Potential toxic compounds were subsequently categorized into three groups: endocrine disruption, mutagenicity, and mitochondrial toxicity. SAs analysis revealed that halogenated fragments, nitro or phenolic groups, and reactive electrophilic motifs are critical contributors to endocrine disruption, mitochondrial toxicity, and mutagenicity.

By integrating structural alerts directly related to toxicity into the model, we enabled more effective learning of toxicologically relevant substructures. We built a dataset of 4,514 diverse compounds, including both organic and inorganic substances. The model was trained and validated using stratified 5-fold cross-validation. It demonstrated excellent predictive performance, achieving an accuracy of 81.19% on the test set. To address the interpretability of the deep learning model, we identified subgraphs corresponding to known structural alerts, providing insights into the model’s decision-making process.

This study presents a novel integrated strategy for rapid, non-targeted detection of reference-standard-free illegal cosmetic additives, especially emerging structural analogs of known prohibited compounds. The quinolone case study validated the strategy's broad applicability to cosmetics. Mass spectrometry-based feature-based molecular networking (FBMN) leverages spectral similarity to cluster structural analogs, using known compounds to identify unknowns, thereby significantly expediting unknown compound discovery. Our results suggested that FBMN clustered 51 quinolones (including 14 novel synthetic analogs) into 13 structural groups using only 17 \"seed\" standards, achieving high sensitivity with a limit of detection (LOD) of 1 ppm. The quantitative structure-ionization intensity relationship (QSIIR) model was established using multiple linear regression (MLR). It employed 7 structural descriptors to predict concentrations of quinolones with high accuracy (training R2 = 0.9876; prediction R2 = 0.8221), enabling absolute quantification prediction of illegal quinolone additives in complex cosmetics without compound-specific calibrants. In addition, the OECD QSAR Toolbox software profiling identified consistent skin irritation hazards and structural alerts for genotoxicity/carcinogenicity across quinolones, supporting regulatory decision-making.

However, due to high-cost and complex wet-lab experiments, real-world molecules usually experience the issue of scarce annotations, leading to limited labeled data for effective supervised AI model learning. In light of this, few-shot molecular property prediction (FSMPP) has emerged as an expressive paradigm that enables learning from only a few labeled examples. Despite rapidly growing attention, existing FSMPP studies remain fragmented, without a coherent framework to capture methodological advances and domain-specific challenges. In this work, we present the first comprehensive and systematic survey of few-shot molecular property prediction. We begin by analyzing the few-shot phenomenon in molecular datasets and highlighting two core challenges: (1) cross-property generalization under distribution shifts, where each task corresponding to each property, may follow a different data distribution or even be inherently weakly related to others from a biochemical perspective, requiring the model to transfer knowledge across heterogeneous prediction tasks, and (2) cross-molecule generalization under structural heterogeneity, where molecules involved in different or same properties may exhibit significant structural diversity, making model difficult to achieve generalization. Then, we introduce a unified taxonomy that organizes existing methods into data, model, and learning paradigm levels, reflecting their strategies for extracting knowledge from scarce supervision in few-shot molecular property prediction. Next, we compare representative methods, summarize benchmark datasets and evaluation protocols.

The first OM U-band measurement is consistent with the quiescent level observed about one year later thanks to ground follow-up observations. This brown dwarf was not detected in X-rays by XMM-Newton during the OM observation. We discuss the possible sources of U-band variability for this young brown dwarf, namely a magnetic flare, non-steady accretion onto the substellar surface, and rotational modulation of a hot spot.

A key innovation of the proposed framework is a reliable inverse mapping scheme that translates optimized points in the descriptor space back into chemically valid molecular structures, thereby bridging continuous optimization and discrete molecular design. We demonstrate the effectiveness of our approach on the QM9 benchmark dataset, where the framework successfully identifies organic molecules with the target entropy and zero-point vibrational energy (ZPVE) values.For entropy optimization, our approach achieves a 100% success rate while requiring fewer than 1,000 molecular evaluations in more than 80% of test cases. For ZPVE, the success rate exceeds 80% for molecules containing more than two heavy atoms.

The similarity of structural alerts of different biochemical endpoints can be used to solve tasks of medicinal chemistry. Optimal descriptors are a tool to build up models for different endpoints. The optimal descriptor is calculated with simplified molecular input-line entry system (SMILES). A group of elements (single symbol or pair of symbols) can represent any SMILES. Each element of SMILES can be represented by so-called correlation weight i.e. coefficient that should be used to calculate descriptor. Numerical data on the correlation weights are calculated by the Monte Carlo method, i.e. by optimization procedure, which gives maximal correlation coefficient between the optimal descriptor and endpoint for the training set. Statistically stable correlation weights observed in several runs of the optimization can be examined as structural alerts, which are promoters of the increase or the decrease of a biochemical activity of a substance. Having data on several runs of the optimization correlation weights, one can extract list of promoters of increase and list of promoters of decrease for an endpoint. The study of similarity and dissimilarity of the above lists has been carried out for the following pairs of endpoints: (i) mutagenicity and anticancer activity; (ii) mutagenicity and blood brain barrier; and (iii) blood brain barrier and anticancer activity.

The role of microglial cells in this process remains underexplored. Objective To investigate how diet-induced changes in gut microbiota influence cognitive function in individuals with obesity and their microglial activity, and to determine the impact of specific dietary interventions. Design This study included 96 participants with obesity who were randomised into three dietary intervention groups: Mediterranean diet (Med), alternate-day fasting (ADF) and ketogenic diet (Keto). Cognitive performance and microbiota composition were assessed pre-intervention and post-intervention. The effects of microbiota-related changes on microglial function were further evaluated in mice models through faecal transplantation and in vitro model with microbiota exosome treatment. Results Both the Keto and ADF groups demonstrated significant weight loss, but cognitive performance improved most notably in the ADF group, in association with reduced inflammation. Diet-related microbiota composition was correlated with the cognitive outcomes in the human study. Mice models confirmed that the cognitive benefits of ADF were microbiota-dependent and linked to enhanced microglial phagocytic capacity and reduced inflammation, accompanied by changes in microglia morphology. Conclusion Fasting-induced modifications in gut microbiota contribute to cognitive improvement in individuals with obesity, with microglial cells playing a crucial mediatory role. Among the interventions, ADF most effectively enhanced microglial function and cognitive performance, suggesting its potential as a therapeutic strategy for obesity-related cognitive decline.

The main emphasis will be then on two paradigmal neural network architectures showing continuously ongoing transient-state dynamics: saddle point networks and networks of attractor relics.\n Self-active neural networks are confronted with two seemingly contrasting demands: a stable internal dynamical state and sensitivity to incoming stimuli. We show, that this dilemma can be solved by networks of attractor relics based on competitive neural dynamics, where the attractor relics compete on one side with each other for transient dominance, and on the other side with the dynamical influence of the input signals. Unsupervised and local Hebbian-style online learning then allows the system to build up correlations between the internal dynamical transient states and the sensory input stream. An emergent cognitive capability results from this set-up.

In this work, we show that a possible connection may naturally rest on the idea that information flows in the brain through a neural message-passing dynamics between macroscopic structures, like those defined by the human connectome (HC). In our model, each brain region in the HC is assumed to have a binary behavior (active or not), the strength of interactions among them is encoded in the anatomical connectivity matrix defined by the HC, and the dynamics of the system is defined by a neural message-passing algorithm, Belief Propagation (BP), working near the critical point of the human connectome. We show that in the absence of direct external stimuli the BP algorithm converges to a spatial map of activations that is similar to the DMN. Moreover, we computed, using Susceptibility Propagation (SP), the matrix of correlations between the different regions and show that the modules defined by a clustering of this matrix resemble several Resting States Networks determined experimentally. Both results suggest that the functional DMN and RSNs can be seen as simple consequences of the anatomical structure of the brain and a neural message-passing dynamics between macroscopic regions.

A lot of evidences implying fractal properties such as 1/f power spectrums have been also observed in resting state fMRI time series. To explain the fractal behavior in rs-fMRI, we have proposed the fractal-based model of resting state hemodynamic response function (rs-HRF) whose properties can be summarized by a fractal exponent. Here we show, through a simulation studies, that the fractal behavior of cerebral hemodynamics may cause significant distortion of network properties between neuronal activities and BOLD signals. We simulated neuronal population activities based on the stochastic neural field model from the Macaque brain network, and then obtained their corresponding BOLD signals by convolving them with the rs-HRF filter. The precision of centrality estimated in each node was deteriorated overall in three networks based on transfer entropy, mutual information, and Pearson correlation; particularly the distortion of transfer entropy was more sensitive to the standard deviation of fractal exponents. A node with high centrality was resilient to desynchronized fractal dynamics over all frequencies while a node with small centrality exhibited huge distortion of both wavelet correlation and centrality over low frequencies. This theoretical expectation indicates that the difference of fractal exponents between brain regions leads to discrepancy of statistical network properties, especially at nodes with small centrality, between neuronal activities and BOLD signals, and that the traditional definitions of resting state functional connectivity may not effectively reflect the dynamics of spontaneous neuronal activities.", - "summary_grounded_pdf": false, - "verification_log": { - "final_url": "https://arxiv.org/abs/1208.0924", - "http_status": 200, - "pdf_sample_score": null, - "query_relevance_score": 0.3, - "redirect_chain": [], - "summary_grounding_score": 1.0, - "title_token_overlap_score": 1.0, - "url_resolves": true, - "verified_at": "2026-05-07T03:22:27Z" - } - }, - { - "bibliographic_info": { - "authors": [ - "D.

We used a customized template to extract networks with more than 1800 regional nodes, and we applied a fast algorithm to identify nested modular structure at several hierarchical levels. We used mutual information, 0 < I < 1, to estimate the similarity of community structure of networks in different subjects, and to identify the individual network that is most representative of the group. Results show that human brain functional networks have a hierarchical modular organization with a fair degree of similarity between subjects, I=0.63. The largest 5 modules at the highest level of the hierarchy were medial occipital, lateral occipital, central, parieto-frontal and fronto-temporal systems; occipital modules demonstrated less sub-modular organization than modules comprising regions of multimodal association cortex. Connector nodes and hubs, with a key role in inter-modular connectivity, were also concentrated in association cortical areas. We conclude that methods are available for hierarchical modular decomposition of large numbers of high resolution brain functional networks using computationally expedient algorithms.

The components are estimated by deep factorization of correlation matrices generated from fMRI. The goal of the paper is to extract interpretable hierarchical patterns using correlation matrices where a low rank decomposition is formed by a linear combination of a high rank decomposition. We formulate the decomposition as a non-convex optimization problem and solve it using gradient descent algorithms with adaptive step size.

Accordingly, it was the main goal of the paper to investigate if those attitudes are related to body image satisfaction. 134 young women between 18 and 34 years completed an explicit affective rating and an implicit affective priming task with pictures of women with different BMIs. Because it is well known that mindfulness, self-compassion and social media activity influence body image satisfaction, these variables were registered as well. The results confirmed an explicit positive affective bias toward pictures of slim women and a negative bias toward emaciated and obese body pictures. It adds to the literature that the explicit positive bias does not hold true for the strongest form of underweight, suggesting that instead of dividing different body shapes into two groups, different gradings of under- and overweight should be considered. Concerning the affective priming task, no significant differences between the different pictures could be carved out. Implicit and explicit affective attitudes were not related to the body satisfaction of the participating women. In line with former studies, body satisfaction was predicted by the actual-ideal weight discrepancy, the BMI, aspects of mindfulness and self-compassion. This study indicates that implicit and explicit affective attitudes toward underweight and overweight women are unrelated to the participants’ body satisfaction.", "summary_grounded_pdf": null, "verification_log": { - "final_url": "https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s00426-021-01536-z", - "http_status": 200, - "pdf_sample_score": null, - "query_relevance_score": 1.0, - "redirect_chain": [ - "https://doi.org/10.1007/s00426-021-01536-z", - "https://link.springer.com/10.1007/s00426-021-01536-z", - "https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s00426-021-01536-z", - "https://idp.springer.com/authorize?response_type=cookie&client_id=springerlink&redirect_uri=https%3A%2F%2Flink.springer.com%2Farticle%2F10.1007%2Fs00426-021-01536-z" - ], - "summary_grounding_score": 1.0, - "title_token_overlap_score": 1.0, - "url_resolves": true, - "verified_at": "2026-05-07T03:29:40Z" - } - }, - { - "bibliographic_info": { - "authors": [ - "Hannah I.

Across two studies using predominantly White samples, three consistent patterns emerged in the data: (1) stereotypic bias was stronger for Black targets, whereas evaluative bias was stronger for White targets; (2) overall response accuracy bias correlated modestly across the two tasks; and (3) multinomial processing tree estimates of controlled processing corresponded much more strongly than estimates of automatic processing.

Methods We analyzed 241 eyes of 241 patients. Eighteen formulas were evaluated: Barrett Universal II (BUII), EVO 2.0, Haigis, Hoffer Q, Holladay 1 and 2, Cooke K6, Kane, LadasSuperFormula AI, Naeser 2, Olsen, Panacea, Pearl-DGS, RBF 2.0, SRK/T, T2, VRF and VRF-G. Optical biometry was performed with an IOLMaster 700 (Carl Zeiss Meditec, Jena, Germany). With lens constants optimized for the whole range of AL, the mean prediction error (PE) and its standard deviation (SD), the median absolute error (MedAE), the mean absolute error (MAE) and the percentage of eyes with PEs within ±0.25 D, ±0.50 D and <±1.00 D were calculated. Results Post-hoc analysis of the absolute PE revealed statistically significant differences (P < .05) between some of the newer formulas (K6, Kane, Naeser 2, Olsen and VRF-G), which obtained the lowest MedAE (respectively, 0.308, 0.300, 0.277, 0.310 and 0.276 D) and the remaining ones. These formulas yielded also the highest percentage of eyes with a PE within ±0.50 D (70.54%, 72.20%, 71.37%, 70.95% and 73.03%, respectively), whereas Panacea and SRK/T yielded the lowest percentage (62.24%), with a stastically significant difference (P < .05) with respect to most formulas.

Here we investigate the hierarchical modular (or \"modules-within-modules\") decomposition of human brain functional networks, measured using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) in 18 healthy volunteers under no-task or resting conditions. We used a customized template to extract networks with more than 1800 regional nodes, and we applied a fast algorithm to identify nested modular structure at several hierarchical levels. We used mutual information, 0 < I < 1, to estimate the similarity of community structure of networks in different subjects, and to identify the individual network that is most representative of the group. Results show that human brain functional networks have a hierarchical modular organization with a fair degree of similarity between subjects, I=0.63. The largest 5 modules at the highest level of the hierarchy were medial occipital, lateral occipital, central, parieto-frontal and fronto-temporal systems; occipital modules demonstrated less sub-modular organization than modules comprising regions of multimodal association cortex. Connector nodes and hubs, with a key role in inter-modular connectivity, were also concentrated in association cortical areas. We conclude that methods are available for hierarchical modular decomposition of large numbers of high resolution brain functional networks using computationally expedient algorithms.

We find that the shape of the angular power spectra generated by loops is, in general, similar to that of long strings. However, there is generally an enhancement of the anisotropies on small angular scales. Vector modes produced by loops dominate over those produced by long strings for large multipole moments $\\ell$. The contribution of loops to the CMB anisotropies generated by cosmic string networks may reach a level of $10\\%$ for large loops but decreases as the size of loops decreases. This contribution may then be significant and, thus, this extension provides a more accurate prediction of the CMB anisotropies generated by cosmic string networks.", - "summary_grounded_pdf": false, - "verification_log": { - "final_url": "https://arxiv.org/abs/2104.08375", - "http_status": 200, - "pdf_sample_score": null, - "query_relevance_score": 0.6667, - "redirect_chain": [], - "summary_grounding_score": 1.0, - "title_token_overlap_score": 1.0, - "url_resolves": true, - "verified_at": "2026-05-07T03:28:33Z" - } - }, - { - "bibliographic_info": { - "authors": [ - "Kohei Kamada", - "Yuhei Miyamoto", - "Daisuke Yamauchi", - "Jun'ichi Yokoyama" - ], - "title": "Effects of cosmic strings with delayed scaling on CMB anisotropy", - "venue": "arXiv", - "year": 2014 - }, - "primary_pointer": "1407.2951", - "summary": "The network of cosmic strings generated in a phase transition during inflation enters the scaling regime later than that of usual strings.

To investigate, a preterm infant study was conducted; infant fecal samples were collected during the infants' first month of postnatal age, resulting in functional compositional microbiome data, and neurobehavioral outcomes were measured when infants reached 36-38 weeks of post-menstrual age. To identify potential microbiome markers and estimate how the trajectories of gut microbiome compositions during early postnatal stage impact later neurobehavioral outcomes of the preterm infants, we innovate a sparse log-contrast regression with functional compositional predictors. The functional simplex structure is strictly preserved, and the functional compositional predictors are allowed to have sparse, smoothly varying, and accumulating effects on the outcome through time.

In recent years, growing attention has been directed toward the interaction between the gut microbiota and the central nervous system (CNS). The gut-brain axis (GBA), as a bidirectional communication pathway, plays an increasingly recognized role in regulating cognitive functions. Ganoderma lucidum polysaccharides (GLP), a traditional medicinal and edible substance, can regulate gut microbiota homeostasis and short-chain fatty acid (SCFAs) levels through the GBA.

In this study, we established a natural aging model by exposing mice to a high-fat diet and chronic stress for 220 consecutive days. Our findings revealed that barley polysaccharides ameliorated cognitive deficits, particularly long-term memory, by modulating neurotransmitter levels and reducing corticosterone. Barley polysaccharides also alleviated lipid metabolism disorders, reduced liver lesions, and decreased body weight as well as the percentage of visceral fat in mice by regulating bile acid and l-lysine metabolism. Additionally, barley polysaccharides enhanced intestinal barrier integrity and reshaped the gut microbiota. They significantly increased the abundance of norank_f_Muribaculaceae and unclassified f_Lachnospiraceae, leading to elevated short-chain fatty acid levels, especially butyric acid, which contributed to improved cognitive function.

However, the role of TFs in mitigating aging-induced cognitive dysfunction and the underlying mechanism remains largely unknown. Here, we find that TFs effectively improve behavioral impairment via the microbiota-gut-brain axis: TFs maintain gut homeostasis by improving antioxidant ability, strengthening the immune response, increasing the expression of tight junction proteins, restructuring the gut microbiota, and altering core microbiota metabolites, i.e., short-chain fatty acids and essential amino acids (SCFAs and AAs), and upregulating brain neurotrophic factors. Removing the gut microbiota with antibiotics partly abolishes the neuroprotective effects of TFs. Besides, correlation analysis indicates that the decrease in gut microbiota, such as Bacteroidetes and Lachnospiraceae, and the increase in microbiota metabolites' levels are positively correlated with behavioral improvements.

To address this issue, we perform a likelihood analysis of an ideal cluster survey similar in size and depth to the upcoming South Pole Telescope/Dark Energy Survey (SPT-DES). We analyze a model in which the strength of the non-Gaussianity is parameterized by the constant fNL; this model has been used extensively to derive Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) anisotropy constraints on non-Gaussianity, allowing us to make contact with those works.

While Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) have significantly advanced molecular property prediction tasks, their high memory footprint, computational demands, and inference latency are often overlooked. These challenges hinder the deployment of property prediction models on resource-constrained devices such as smartphones and IoT devices. Therefore, optimizing storage, reducing resource consumption, and improving inference speed are crucial. This paper presents a systematic approach to molecular networks by integrating GNN models with the DoReFa-Net quantization algorithm. The proposed method aims to enhance computational efficiency while maintaining predictive performance, enabling lightweight yet effective models suitable for molecular task. The study investigates the impact of different bitwidth quantization levels on model performance, using metrics such as RMSE and MAE. Results show that, for physical chemistry datasets, the effectiveness of quantization is highly dependent on the model architecture. Notably, the quantum mechanical dipole moment task maintains strong performance up to 8-bit precision, achieving similar or slightly better results.

However, existing metapath-based models suffer from either information loss or high computation costs. To address these problems, we present a novel Metapath Context Convolution-based Heterogeneous Graph Neural Network (MECCH). MECCH leverages metapath contexts, a new kind of graph structure that facilitates lossless node information aggregation while avoiding any redundancy. Specifically, MECCH applies three novel components after feature preprocessing to extract comprehensive information from the input graph efficiently: (1) metapath context construction, (2) metapath context encoder, and (3) convolutional metapath fusion.

To mitigate these issues, we propose a feature augmentation-based graph contrastive learning method (FA-GCL) that enhances the accuracy and robustness of graph representations. Specifically, our approach first implements a dynamic dropout-based feature augmentation technique, which adjusts dropout rates dynamically using a triangular wave function, thereby significantly improving model performance. Additionally, we introduce two complementary feature augmentation methods based on singular value decomposition: a theoretically rigorous full SVD approach and a computationally efficient randomized projection-based SVD method that achieves linear complexity while preserving spectral properties.

A standing challenge for the applicability of on- device intelligence is the excessively high computation cost of training highly accurate Deep Learning (DL) models.

This paper proposes a novel transformation which changes the topology of the DL architecture to reach an optimal cross-layer connectivity. This, in turn, significantly reduces the number of training iterations required for reaching a target accuracy. Our transformation leverages the important observation that for a set level of accuracy, convergence is fastest when network topology reaches the boundary of a Small-World Network. Small-world graphs are known to possess a specific connectivity structure that enables enhanced signal propagation among nodes. Our small-world models, called SWANNs, provide several intriguing benefits: they facilitate data (gradient) flow within the network, enable feature-map reuse by adding long-range connections and accommodate various network architectures/datasets. Compared to densely connected networks (e.g., DenseNets), SWANNs require a substantially fewer number of training parameters while maintaining a similar level of classification accuracy.

Graph contrastive learning aims to learn from high-order collaborative filtering signals with unsupervised augmentation on the user-item bipartite graph, which predominantly relies on the multi-task learning framework involving both the pair-wise recommendation loss and the contrastive loss. This decoupled design can cause inconsistent optimization direction from different losses, which leads to longer convergence time and even sub-optimal performance. Besides, the self-supervised contrastive loss falls short in alleviating the data sparsity issue in RecSys as it learns to differentiate users/items from different views without providing extra supervised collaborative filtering signals during augmentations. In this paper, we propose Mixed Supervised Graph Contrastive Learning for Recommendation (MixSGCL) to address these concerns. MixSGCL originally integrates the training of recommendation and unsupervised contrastive losses into a supervised contrastive learning loss to align the two tasks within one optimization direction. To cope with the data sparsity issue, instead unsupervised augmentation, we further propose node-wise and edge-wise mixup to mine more direct supervised collaborative filtering signals based on existing user-item interactions.

To this end, we relate GCL with invariant rationale discovery, and propose a new framework, Rationale-aware Graph Contrastive Learning (RGCL). Specifically, without supervision signals, RGCL uses a rationale generator to reveal salient features about graph instance-discrimination as the rationale, and then creates rationale-aware views for contrastive learning. This rationale-aware pre-training scheme endows the backbone model with the powerful representation ability, further facilitating the fine-tuning on downstream tasks. On MNIST-Superpixel and MUTAG datasets, visual inspections on the discovered rationales showcase that the rationale generator successfully captures the salient features (i.e. distinguishing semantic nodes in graphs).

The principles based on the information optimization are expected to play a central role in affecting the dynamics and topological structure of the brain network. Recent studies on the functional connectivity between brain regions, referred to as the functional connectome, reveal characteristics of their networks, such as self-organized criticality of brain dynamics and small-world topology. However, these important attributes are established separately, and their relations to the principle of the information optimization are unclear. Here, we show that the maximization principle of the mutual information entropy induces the optimal state, at which the small-world network topology and the criticality in the activation dynamics emerge. Our findings, based on the functional connectome analyses, show that according to the increasing mutual information entropy, the coactivation pattern converges to the state of self-organized criticality, and a phase transition of the network topology, which is responsible for the small-world topology, arises simultaneously at the same point. The coincidence of these phase transitions at the same critical point indicates that the criticality of the dynamics and the phase transition of the network topology are essentially rooted in the same phenomenon driven by the mutual information maximization. As a consequence, the two different attributes of the brain, self-organized criticality and small-world topology, can be understood within a unified perspective under the information-based principle.

This paper proposes a novel transformation which changes the topology of the DL architecture such that it reaches an optimal cross-layer connectivity. This transformation leverages our important observation that for a set level of accuracy, convergence is fastest when network topology reaches the boundary of a Small-World Network. Small-world graphs are known to possess a specific connectivity structure that enables enhanced signal propagation among nodes. Our small-world models, called SWNets, provide several intriguing benefits: they facilitate data (gradient) flow within the network, enable feature-map reuse by adding long-range connections and accommodate various network architectures/datasets. Compared to densely connected networks (e.g., DenseNets), SWNets require a substantially fewer number of training parameters while maintaining a similar level of classification accuracy. We evaluate our networks on various DL model architectures and image classification datasets, namely, CIFAR10, CIFAR100, and ILSVRC (ImageNet). Our experiments demonstrate an average of ~2.1x improvement in convergence speed to the desired accuracy", "summary_grounded_pdf": false, "verification_log": { - "final_url":

Mode 2 — SENTENCE-SHAPED QUERIES: long natural-language questions get bag-of-words-ified by SS/arXiv; signal diluted across stop-words ("how", "change", "experimentally"). Mode 3 — SINGLE BROAD QUERY: multi-axis questions need multiple targeted queries. Fix: - New module src/llmxive/librarian/query_extractor.py - One LLM call per librarian invocation produces 5 short keyword queries (2-6 tokens each) with synonym variants for divergent vocabulary clusters - System prompt explicitly demands at least one query use canonical alt-vocabulary terms (e.g., "memorization" alongside "code duplication") - LibrarianAgent.invoke() runs all queries (extracted + raw term as baseline) in parallel; unions candidates by primary_pointer; feeds union into existing verify+judge+fallback pipeline - 12 new tests (10 parser + 2 real-LLM smoke); both real-LLM tests verify the extractor produces synonym variants for an actual research question Re-runs after fix: - Phase 2 regression: 116/116 PASS - US4 cross-domain: 8/8 PASS in 1h43min * Specificity: 6/8 fields bullseye (vs 5/8 v1.3.0) * 0/8 marginal-fallback used (vs 2/8 v1.3.0) — extractor surfaces canonical-vocabulary papers judge accepts strictly * Statistics now bullseye: first verified is "Brief Report: Post Hoc / Observed / A Priori / Retrospective Power" (canonical taxonomy paper v1.3.0 missed under "intraocular lens power" contamination) * Materials science: 10 grain-boundary-segregation thermodynamics papers (vs 6 under v1.3.0) * Biology: 8 gut-microbiome-cognition-aging papers * 1/8 confirmed real lit gap (CS clustering-coefficient × loss- convergence — narrow question, no paper exists at intersection) - PROJ-262 v1.4.0: 10 strict-pass citations including foundational Gilmer 2017 "Neural Message Passing for Quantum Chemistry" (arXiv:1704.01212) that v1.3.0 missed entirely - PROJ-261 v1.4.0: 16 marginal-fallback citations — extractor DID surface "training data contamination code memorization" as a query (6 hits) but the strict topical judge correctly notes no candidate narrowly addresses the specific clone-density × perplexity correlation pattern; honest marginal labeling is preferable to admitting field-adjacent work as bullseye Cost: ~5x mean per-invocation duration (195s → 775s) due to parallel multi-query approach + LLM extractor call. Several fields exceed the 600s soft target — accepted as the documented cost of the recall improvement (P5-D09 budget remains soft-only). Bumped librarian prompt_version 1.3.0 -> 1.4.0; wiped stale v1.3.0 cache.

The phenomenon being investigated is how data redundancy in training corpora affects downstream model behavior, which is a substantive question about LLM training dynamics. ### Circularity check **Verdict**: pass -The predictor (syntactic clone density) is computed via AST-based clone detection on source code, while the predicted variables (perplexity and bug-detection accuracy) are derived from LLM inference outputs.

Clone density is a static code property; model performance metrics are outputs of the LLM's token prediction and bug-finding capabilities. The model's training data may include clones, but the relationship between clone density and performance is not mechanically guaranteed by construction. ### Triviality check **Verdict**: pass -Either outcome would be informative: a positive correlation would reveal whether redundancy aids memorization versus harms generalization, while a null result would suggest LLMs are robust to duplication levels. Both directions would inform training data curation and codebase maintenance practices for AI-readiness. +Both outcomes would be informative: a positive correlation would suggest code duplication systematically biases LLM predictions (informing refactoring priorities for AI-readiness), while a null result would indicate duplication is benign for model understanding (challenging assumptions about training data quality).

We obtained upper limits to the U-band emission of 10 brown dwarfs (U>19.6-20.6 mag), whereas 2MASSJ04141188+2811535 was detected in the U-band. Remarkably, the magnitude of this brown dwarf increased regularly from U~19.5 mag at the beginning of the observation, peaked 6h later at U~18.4 mag, and then decreased to U~18.65 mag in the next 2h. The first OM U-band measurement is consistent with the quiescent level observed about one year later thanks to ground follow-up observations. This brown dwarf was not detected in X-rays by XMM-Newton during the OM observation. We discuss the possible sources of U-band variability for this young brown dwarf, namely a magnetic flare, non-steady accretion onto the substellar surface, and rotational modulation of a hot spot.

In this study, we present a Bayesian optimization (BO) framework that identifies optimal molecular structures with high precision using fewer than 2,000 training data points within a chemical subspace containing more than 133,000 molecules. The framework employs a low-dimensional and physics-informed molecular descriptor vector that facilitates data-efficient surrogate modelling and optimization. A key innovation of the proposed framework is a reliable inverse mapping scheme that translates optimized points in the descriptor space back into chemically valid molecular structures, thereby bridging continuous optimization and discrete molecular design. We demonstrate the effectiveness of our approach on the QM9 benchmark dataset, where the framework successfully identifies organic molecules with the target entropy and zero-point vibrational energy (ZPVE) values.For entropy optimization, our approach achieves a 100% success rate while requiring fewer than 1,000 molecular evaluations in more than 80% of test cases. For ZPVE, the success rate exceeds 80% for molecules containing more than two heavy atoms.

In this work, we investigate this gap by posing a fundamental question: \\textit{Do domain-specific experts exist in MoE-based LLMs?} To answer the question, we evaluate ten advanced MoE-based LLMs ranging from 3.8B to 120B parameters and provide empirical evidence for the existence of domain-specific experts. Building on this finding, we propose \\textbf{Domain Steering Mixture of Experts (DSMoE)}, a training-free framework that introduces zero additional inference cost and outperforms both well-trained MoE-based LLMs and strong baselines, including Supervised Fine-Tuning (SFT). Experiments on four advanced open-source MoE-based LLMs across both target and non-target domains demonstrate that our method achieves strong performance and robust generalization without increasing inference cost or requiring additional retraining.

Furthermore, a mutagenicity mechanism prediction method was developed using 237 chemicals with four known mutagenic mechanisms based on molecular similarity calibrated by the SSDL method and fragment importance, which significantly improved accuracy in three mechanisms and had comparable accuracy in the other one compared to traditional methods.

The similarity of structural alerts of different biochemical endpoints can be used to solve tasks of medicinal chemistry. Optimal descriptors are a tool to build up models for different endpoints. The optimal descriptor is calculated with simplified molecular input-line entry system (SMILES). A group of elements (single symbol or pair of symbols) can represent any SMILES. Each element of SMILES can be represented by so-called correlation weight i.e. coefficient that should be used to calculate descriptor. Numerical data on the correlation weights are calculated by the Monte Carlo method, i.e. by optimization procedure, which gives maximal correlation coefficient between the optimal descriptor and endpoint for the training set. Statistically stable correlation weights observed in several runs of the optimization can be examined as structural alerts, which are promoters of the increase or the decrease of a biochemical activity of a substance. Having data on several runs of the optimization correlation weights, one can extract list of promoters of increase and list of promoters of decrease for an endpoint. The study of similarity and dissimilarity of the above lists has been carried out for the following pairs of endpoints: (i) mutagenicity and anticancer activity; (ii) mutagenicity and blood brain barrier; and (iii) blood brain barrier and anticancer activity.

Organic additives affected stability according to their hydrophobicity: hydrophobic hexane substantially increased gas retention, especially at low gas loading, by promoting gas clustering and re-adsorption at the NB interface, whereas hydrophilic solutes had negligible influence.

Single-phase crystals in Larché-Cahn theory are stable under open constant pressure, constant temperature conditions. The Gibbs free energy does not have to match the product μN of the number of particles N and their chemical potential μ. Similarly, the grand potential and the product pV of pressure and volume V may not add up to zero. Discrepancies already arise under hydrostatic stress. The elastic energy is not proportional to volume and the Gibbs-Duhem relation valid for liquids is violated. Extensivity is recovered by treating the number of lattice sites M as an additional thermodynamic variable. The difference G - μN can be identified with νM where ν is the thermodynamic force conjugate to M. The reinstated Gibbs-Duhem equation can be cast in the form of an adsorption equation and applied to quantify the tendency to vacancy creation under isothermal isobaric conditions. We have worked this out for a uniform one-component compressible lattice gas crystal. Shear stress is omitted.

This study optimizes the low-temperature composition of this alloy system through Nb addition (Mg3.2–xNbx(Sb0.3Bi0.7)1.996Te0.004), characterizing composition, microstructure, and transport properties. A high Mg3Bi2 content improves the band structure by increasing weighted mobility while enhancing the microstructure. Crucially, it suppresses detrimental grain boundary scattering effects for room-temperature applications. While grain boundary scattering suppression is typically achieved through grain growth, our study reveals that Nb addition significantly reduces grain boundary resistance without increasing grain size. This phenomenon is attributed to a grain boundary complexion transition, where Nb addition transforms the highly resistive Mg3Bi2-rich boundary complexion into a less resistive, metal-like interfacial phase. This marks the rare demonstration of chemistry noticeably affecting grain boundary interfacial electrical resistance in Mg3Sb2–Mg3Bi2.

The long-range elastic interaction between dislocations is included in the continuum model, which ensures that the dislocation structure on a grain boundary is consistent with the Frank's formula. These evolution of the grain boundary and its dislocation structure are able to describe both normal motion and tangential translation of the grain boundary and grain rotation due to both coupling and sliding.

This framework is primarily built on density functional theory calculations and is demonstrated for W-rich binary and ternary alloys, which represent a promising target for fusion energy materials. Our framework first evaluates the grain boundary segregation tendency of dopants and then the energy penalty for amorphization alongside targeted interfacial energy comparison, with the end goal of identifying the best dopants.

Electronic structure analysis, local lattice distortion, and charge density distributions are calculated and used to provide mechanistic explanations for these dopant selections.

Unfortunately, the fabrication of nanocrystalline metals often requires non-equilibrium processing routes, which typically limit the specimen size and require large energy budgets. In this study, multiple dopant atoms in ternary Al alloys are deliberately selected to enable segregation to the grain boundary region and promote the formation of amorphous complexions. Three different fully dense bulk nanocrystalline Al alloys (Al-Mg-Y, Al-Fe-Y, and Al-Ni-Y) with small grain sizes were successfully fabricated using a simple powder metallurgy approach, with full densification connected directly to the onset of amorphous complexion formation. All the compositions demonstrate densities above 99% with grain sizes of <60 nm following consolidation via hot pressing at 585 oC. The very fine grain structure results in excellent mechanical properties, with nanoindentation hardness values in the range of 2.2-2.8 GPa. Detailed microstructural characterization verifies the segregation of all dopant species to grain boundaries as well as the formation of amorphous complexions, which suggests their influential role in aiding effective consolidation and endowing thermal stability in the alloys. Moreover, nanorods with a core-shell structure are also observed at the grain boundaries, which likely contribute to the stabilization of the grain structure and high strength.

The literature on affective priming has mostly focused on brief influences of emotional stimuli and emotional states on perceptual and cognitive processes. Yet this approach does not fully capture more dynamic processes at the root of emotional states, with such states lingering beyond the duration of the inducing external stimuli. Our goal was to put in perspective three different types of affective states (induced affective states, more sustained mood states and affective traits such as depression and anxiety) and investigate how they may interact and influence emotion perception. Here, we hypothesized that absorption into positive and negative emotional episodes generate sustained affective states that outlast the episode period and bias the interpretation of facial expressions in a perceptual decision-making task. We also investigated how such effects are influenced by more sustained mood states and by individual affect traits (depression and anxiety) and whether they interact. Transient emotional states were induced using movie-clips, after which participants performed a forced-choice emotion classification task with morphed facial expressions ranging from fear to happiness. Using a psychometric approach, we show that negative (vs. neutral) clips increased participants’ propensity to classify ambiguous faces as fearful during several minutes.

By sequencing oral swabs, we were able to identify bacterial and fungal populations in the dogs’ mouths. The most common bacterial species present, Phorphorymonas spp. is known to produce factors that cause neurodegeneration. Moreover, Leptotrichia, another bacterial species present, correlated to cognition scores in these dogs. We conclude that this small exploratory study shows the importance of defining the oral microbiota in aged dogs with a view to understanding potential therapeutic targets. Larger prospective studies should be undertaken as a priority. Abstract Aged companion dogs have a high prevalence of periodontal disease and canine cognitive dysfunction syndrome (CCDS) and the two disorders are correlated. Similarly, periodontal disease and Alzheimer’s Disease are correlated in people. However, little is known about the oral microbiota of aging dogs. The goal of this project was to characterize the longitudinal changes in oral microbiota in aged dogs. Oral swabs were taken from ten senior client-owned dogs on 2–3 occasions spanning 24 months and they underwent whole genome shotgun (WGS) sequencing. Cognitive status was established at each sampling time. A statistically significant increase in alpha diversity for bacterial and fungal species was observed between the first and last study visits. Bacteroidetes and proteobacteria were the most abundant bacterial phyla. Porphyromonas gulae was the most abundant bacterial species (11.6% of total reads). The species Lactobacillus gasseri had a statistically significant increase in relative abundance with age whereas Leptotrichia sp. oral taxon 212 had a statistically significant positive longitudinal association with cognition score. There is an increased fungal and bacterial alpha diversity in aging dogs over time and nearly universal oral dysbiosis.

Given the absence of local excitatory connections within the thalamus, the notion of thalamic `relay' seemed like a reasonable description over the last several decades. Recent advances in experimental approaches and theory provide a broader perspective on the role of the thalamus in cognitively-relevant cortical computations, and suggest that only a subset of thalamic circuit motifs fit the relay description. Here, we discuss this perspective and highlight the potential role for the thalamus -- and specifically mediodorsal (MD) nucleus -- in dynamic selection of cortical representations through a combination of intrinsic thalamic computations and output signals that change cortical network functional parameters. We suggest that through the contextual modulation of cortical computation, thalamus and cortex jointly optimize the information/cost tradeoff in an emergent fashion.

The index is calculated by scoring intake adequacy of key food groups (e.g. fruits, vegetables, whole grains) and moderation of harmful components (e.g. sodium, added sugars). This study evaluates i) the predictive capacity of the HEI scores and its components with cognitive decline, ii) the moderating role of socioeconomic status in the diet-cognition relationship. We used dietary, socioeconomic, and cognitive assessment data from NHANES 2011-2012. Logistic and probit regression models were used to identify associations by adjusting for covariates. Probit model showed higher whole fruit scores associated with improved word recall, delayed recall, and increased likelihood of above-average cognitive performance. Higher scores for whole fruits, vegetables, grains, and seafood components were associated with improved animal-fluency performance, whereas higher whole grain scores increased the probability of above-average performance, and higher fatty acid component scores reduced it. Higher overall HEI scores, along with higher scores for whole fruits, whole grains, and seafood components, also positively associated with improved performance on digit-symbol-substitution-tests. Additionally, higher whole fruit and protein component scores increased the likelihood of individuals scoring above average in digit symbol scores. Furthermore, when stratified by socioeconomic status, higher-HEI scores increased the likelihood of above-average performance in animal-fluency and digit-symbol-tests for individuals below 185% of the poverty line.

In Lebanon, the World Health Organization reported a rising prevalence of physical inactivity among adults. Various studies highlight the benefits of physical activity (PA) on health, influenced by sociodemographic factors, gender, age, and diet. This study aims to examine PA correlates in Lebanese adults, focusing on blood biomarkers. Methods This cross-sectional study included 296 adults aged ≥18 years. Participants completed a brief sociodemographic and food frequency questionnaire, underwent anthropometric measurements, and provided fasting blood samples. PA was measured using the International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ) short form and was divided into two categories: low PA corresponding to any walking activity, and moderate to vigorous PA for activities requiring physical effort. Descriptive statistics were computed for sociodemographic characteristics, BMI, waist circumference, energy intake, PA levels, and blood biomarkers. Logistic regressions were used to assess PA and blood biomarkers associations, adjusted for relevant covariates. Results Gender and marital status were associated with moderate to vigorous PA levels. No association was found between PA levels, BMI, waist circumference, diet, or blood biomarkers. Multivariate binary logistic regression analyses showed that females (OR=1.96, 95% CI: 1.16–3.31) and those with LDL moderate risk (OR=1.90, 95% CI: 1.02–3.66), and high risk (OR=2.44, 95% CI: 1.08–5.55), were more likely to show moderate-to-high PA levels.

Methods This was a cross-sectional study using data obtained from the NHANES database. The following covariates were assessed: age, sex, race/ethnicity, educational level, marital status, smoking status, physical activity, alcohol use, history of diabetes, and hypertension. Socioeconomic status was categorized according to poverty-income ratio (PIR).

Median PDI index was significantly different among PIR groups (PDI, p = 0.018; hPDI, p < 0.001). On multivariable analysis, participants in the poorest socioeconomic group (PIR ≤ 130%) were more likely to have lower consumption of a healthful PBD (hPDI).

Recent guidance from the U.S. FDA provided recommendations and best practices for using covariate adjustment.

These two R packages enable covariate-adjusted analyses for continuous, discrete, and time-to-event outcomes that follow best practices. For continuous and discrete outcomes, the functions in the RobinCar Family facilitate traditional forms of covariate adjustment such as ANCOVA as well as more recent approaches like ANHECOVA, G-computation with generalized linear models and machine learning models, and adjustment for a super-covariate (as in PROCOVA(TM)). Functions for time-to-event outcomes implement the covariate-adjusted log-rank test, the stratified covariate-adjusted log-rank test, and the marginal covariate-adjusted hazard ratio. The RobinCar Family is supported by the ASA Biopharmaceutical Section Covariate Adjustment Scientific Working Group.\n Results: We provide an accessible overview of the covariate-adjusted statistical methods, and describe how they are implemented in RobinCar and RobinCar2.

Methods In this hospital-based case-control study, 16 AD patients and 17 cognitively healthy controls (HCs) were recruited at AIIMS, New Delhi. AD diagnosis followed NIA-AA criteria, supported by Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) and Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9) assessments. AD participants underwent 60-min supervised yoga sessions daily for 12 weeks. Cognitive performance, depressive symptoms, and stool microbiota were assessed pre- and post-intervention. Metagenomic sequencing enabled taxonomic and functional profiling, with alpha diversity, beta diversity (Bray-Curtis distance), and differential abundance analyses performed using standard bioinformatics tools. Results Yoga was associated with improved cognition (MoCA: 22.33 ± 2.34 → 25.44 ± 2.01; p = 0.001) and reduced depressive symptoms (PHQ-9: 5.78 ± 3.11 → 2.22 ± 1.71; p = 0.007). Alpha diversity remained stable, while beta diversity shifted post-yoga AD samples toward the HC cluster. Beneficial taxa (Faecalibacterium prausnitzii, Roseburia intestinalis, Bifidobacterium, Akkermansia) increased, whereas pro-inflammatory taxa (Collinsella aerofaciens, Klebsiella spp.) decreased. Functional analysis showed partial recovery of metabolic and short-chain fatty acid pathways. Conclusions A 12-week yoga intervention was associated with cognitive and mood improvements and partial normalization of gut microbial function in mild AD. Larger randomized trials with lifestyle monitoring and multi-omics integration are warranted to confirm causal mechanisms.", + "summary_grounded_pdf": false, + "verification_log": { + "final_url": "https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/13872877261415612", + "http_status": 403, + "pdf_sample_score": null, + "query_relevance_score": 0.6364, + "redirect_chain": [ + "https://doi.org/10.1177/13872877261415612" + ], + "summary_grounding_score": 1.0, + "title_token_overlap_score": 1.0, + "url_resolves": true, + "verified_at": "2026-05-07T17:22:43Z" + } + }, + { + "bibliographic_info": { + "authors": [ + "Kang-Chen Fan", + "Chen-Ching Lin", + "Yen-Ling Chiu", + "Seong‐Ho Koh", + "Yi-Chien Liu", + "Yi-Fang Chuang" + ], + "title": "Compositional and functional gut microbiota alterations in mild cognitive impairment: links to Alzheimer’s disease pathology", + "venue": "Alzheimer's Research & Therapy", + "year": 2025 + }, + "primary_pointer": "https://doi.org/10.1186/s13195-025-01769-9", + "summary": "Emerging evidence highlights the bidirectional communication between the gut microbiota and the brain, suggesting a potential role for gut dysbiosis in Alzheimer’s disease (AD) pathology and cognitive decline. Existing literature on gut microbiota lacks species-level insights. This study investigates gut microbiota alterations in mild cognitive impairment (MCI), focusing on their association with comprehensive AD biomarkers, including amyloid burden, tau pathology, neurodegeneration, and cognitive performance. We analyzed fecal samples from 119 individuals with MCI and 320 cognitively normal controls enrolled in the Taiwan Precision Medicine Initiative on Cognitive Impairment and Dementia cohort. Shotgun metagenomic sequencing was conducted with taxonomic profiling using MetaPhlAn4. Amyloid burden and plasma pTau181 were quantified via PET imaging and Simoa assays, respectively, while APOE genotyping was performed using TaqMan assays. Microbial diversity, differential abundance analysis, and correlation mapping with neuropsychological and neuroimaging measures were conducted to identify gut microbiota species signatures associated with MCI and AD biomarkers. We identified 59 key microbial species linked to MCI and AD biomarkers. Notably, species within the same genera, such as Bacteroides and Ruminococcus, showed opposing effects, while Akkermansia muciniphila correlated with reduced amyloid burden, suggesting a protective role. Functional profiling revealed microbial pathways contributing to energy metabolism and neuroinflammation, mediating the relationship between gut microbes and brain health. Co-occurrence network analyses demonstrated complex microbial interactions, indicating that the collective influence of gut microbiota on neurodegeneration.

To unveil the real cause of this undesired behavior, we theoretically investigate evidential models and identify a fundamental limitation that explains the inferior performance: existing evidential activation functions create zero evidence regions, which prevent the model to learn from training samples falling into such regions. A deeper analysis of evidential activation functions based on our theoretical underpinning inspires the design of a novel regularizer that effectively alleviates this fundamental limitation.

The component masses were later measured to be in the range 0.86 to 2.26 Msun.

In addition, the positive running of the spectral index αs implied by the data provides strong constraints on these models.

Furthermore, we extend this framework to traditional inflation models such as chaotic inflation and natural inflation, which have already been excluded by Planck alone, and show that they can be revived in certain regions of parameter space. Inflationary observables, including the spectral index ns , the tensor-to-scalar ratio r, and the running αs , are computed within the single-field EFT approach, which is applicable even in the presence of a heavy field with large mixing.

A larger Hubble constant, which can be compatible with the recent HST estimate, and a large fraction of baryon density in galaxy clusters make them current favorites. Early galaxy formation also is considered as a welcome feature of these models But early galaxy formation implies that fluctuations on few megaparsec scales spent more time in the nonlinearregime, as compared with standard Cold Dark Matter (CDM) or Cold+Hot Dark Matter models. This results in excessive clustering on small scales. We show that a typical LCDM model with $H_0=70$ km/s/Mpc, $Ω_0=0.3$ normalized to COBE on large scales and compatible with the number-density of galaxy clusters, predicts a power spectrum of galaxy clustering in real space which is too high: {\\it at least} twice larger than CfA estimates (Park \\etal 1994) and 3 times larger than APM estimates (Baugh \\& Efstathiou 1994) for wavenumbers $k=(0.4-1)h/{\\rm Mpc}$. This conclusion holds if we assume either that galaxies trace the dark matter ($σ_8\\approx 1.1$ for this model) or just that a region with higher density produces more galaxies than a region with lower density. The only way to reconcile the model with the observed power spectrum is to assume that regions with high dark matter density produce fewer galaxies than regions with low density. Theoretically this is possible, but it seems very unlikely: X-ray emission from groups and clusters indicates that places with a large density of dark matter produce a large number of galaxies.

Hence, the basic physical mechanisms at play are similar in both cases and can be reduced to the quantization of a parametric oscillator leading to particle creation due to the interaction with a classical source: pair production in vacuum is therefore equivalent to the appearance of a growing mode for the cosmological fluctuations. The only difference lies in the nature of the source: an electric field in the case of the Schwinger effect and the gravitational field in the case of inflationary perturbations. Although, in the laboratory, it is notoriously difficult to produce an electric field such that pairs extracted from the vacuum can be detected, the gravitational field in the early universe can be strong enough to lead to observable effects that ultimately reveal themselves as temperature fluctuations in the Cosmic Microwave Background.

Recently, it has been proposed that well-defined topological defects can still be identified in glasses, and correlated to local and global plasticity, by looking at the eigenvector field or the particle displacement field. Nevertheless, all the existing proposals and analyses are only valid in two spatial dimensions. In this work, we propose the idea of using hedgehog topological defects to characterize the plasticity of 3D glasses and to geometrically predict the location of their soft spots. We corroborate our proposal by simulating a Kremer-Grest 3D polymer glass, and by using both the normal mode eigenvector field and the displacement field around large plastic events.

However as with other defects the spectral shape does not match observations, and in models with inflationary perturbations plus semilocal strings the 95% confidence level upper bound is Gμ<2.0 × 10−6 when CMB, Hubble key project and big bang nucleosynthesis data are used (cf Gμ<0.9 × 10−6 for cosmic strings).

We compare estimates obtained from separable template-fitting, binned, and modal bispectrum estimators, finding consistent values for the local, equilateral, and orthogonal bispectrum amplitudes. Our combined temperature and polarization analysis produces the following results: f_NL^local = -0.9 +\\- 5.1; f_NL^equil = -26 +\\- 47; and f_NL^ortho = - 38 +\\- 24 (68%CL, statistical). These results include the low-multipole (4 <= l < 40) polarization data, not included in our previous analysis, pass an extensive battery of tests, and are stable with respect to our 2015 measurements. Polarization bispectra display a significant improvement in robustness; they can now be used independently to set NG constraints. We consider a large number of additional cases, e.g. scale-dependent feature and resonance bispectra, isocurvature primordial NG, and parity-breaking models, where we also place tight constraints but do not detect any signal. The non-primordial lensing bispectrum is detected with an improved significance compared to 2015, excluding the null hypothesis at 3.5 sigma. We present model-independent reconstructions and analyses of the CMB bispectrum. Our final constraint on the local trispectrum shape is g_NLl^local = (-5.8 +\\-6.5) x 10^4 (68%CL, statistical), while constraints for other trispectra are also determined. We constrain the parameter space of different early-Universe scenarios, including general single-field models of inflation, multi-field and axion field parity-breaking models.

Our approach involves generating a single realisation of the initial power spectrum of density perturbations and studying how truncation of this power spectrum on scales larger than L_cut affects the structure of dark matter haloes at z=0. In particular, we have examined the cases of L_cut = f_cut L_box with f_cut=1 (i.e. no truncation), 1/2, 1/3 and 1/4. In common with previous studies, we find that the suppression of long wavelength perturbations reduces the strength of clustering, as measured by a suppression of the 2-point correlation function xi(r), and reduces the numbers of the most massive haloes, as reflected in the depletion of the high mass end of the mass function n(M). Interestingly, we find that truncation has little impact on the internal properties of haloes. The masses of high mass haloes decrease in a systematic manner as L_cut is reduced, but the distribution of concentrations is unaffected. On the other hand, the median spin parameter is ~50% lower in runs with f_cut<1. We argue that this is an imprint of the linear growth phase of the halo's angular momentum by tidal torquing, and that the absence of any measurable trend in concentration and the weak trend observed in halo shape reflect the importance of virialisation and complex mass accretion histories for these quantities. These results are of interest for studies that require high mass resolution and statistical samples of simulated haloes, such as simulations of the population of first stars.

As a result, simple models of topological contagion do not accurately represent the propagation of cascades in power systems. However, cascading power outages do follow patterns, some of which are useful in understanding and reducing blackout risk. This paper describes a method by which the data from many cascading failure simulations can be transformed into a graph-based model of influences that provides actionable information about the many ways that cascades propagate in a particular system. The resulting \"influence graph\" model is Markovian, in that component outage probabilities depend only on the outages that occurred in the prior generation. To validate the model we compare the distribution of cascade sizes resulting from $n-2$ contingencies in a $2896$ branch test case to cascade sizes in the influence graph. The two distributions are remarkably similar. In addition, we derive an equation with which one can quickly identify modifications to the proposed system that will substantially reduce cascade propagation.

The proposed technique precisely accounts for skin, proximity, ground and tunnel effects, and is applicable to a variety of cable configurations, including underground and submarine cables.

Despite the different implementations of the physical ingredients of galaxy formation, we find that the model predictions are broadly consistent with one another; the key differences reflect how the models treat AGN feedback and how the timescale for star formation evolves with redshift. The models produce mass functions of cold gas in galaxies that are generally in good agreement with HI surveys at $z$=0. Interestingly we find that these mass functions do not evolve significantly with redshift. Adopting a simple conversion factor for cold gas mass to HI mass that we apply to all galaxies at all redshifts, we derive mass functions of HI in galaxies from the predicted mass functions of cold gas, which we use to predict the number counts of sources likely to be detected by HI surveys on next generation radio telescopes such as the Square Kilometre Array and its pathfinders. We show also how adopting a conversion factor for cold gas mass to HI mass that varies from galaxy to galaxy impacts on number counts.

Despite their promising capabilities, the lack of transparency in AI models poses significant challenges, particularly in medical contexts where reliability is a mandatory aspect. However, it appears that explainability is inversely proportional to accuracy. For this reason, achieving transparency without compromising predictive accuracy remains a key challenge.\n\n\nMETHODS\nThis paper presents a novel method, namely Rad4XCNN, to enhance the predictive power of CNN-derived features with the inherent interpretability of radiomic features. Rad4XCNN diverges from conventional methods based on saliency maps, by associating intelligible meaning to CNN-derived features by means of Radiomics, offering new perspectives on explanation methods beyond visualization maps.\n\n\nRESULTS\nUsing a breast cancer classification task as a case study, we evaluated Rad4XCNN on ultrasound imaging datasets, including an online dataset and two in-house datasets for internal and external validation. Some key results are: (i) CNN-derived features guarantee more robust accuracy when compared against ViT-derived and radiomic features; (ii) conventional visualization map methods for explanation present several pitfalls; (iii) Rad4XCNN does not sacrifice model accuracy for their explainability; (iv) Rad4XCNN provides a global explanation enabling the physician to extract global insights and findings.\n\n\nCONCLUSIONS\nOur method can mitigate some concerns related to the explainability-accuracy trade-off.

This retrospective analysis utilized data from a single eye of each patient, with preoperative biometric measurements obtained using the IOL Master 700. The study considered established formulas such as Haigis, Hoffer Q, Holladay 1, Holladay 2, and SRK/T, as well as modern formulas including Barrett Universal II, Cooke K6, EVO 2.0, Hill-RBF, Hoffer QST, Kane, Olsen, and PEARL-DGS. Statistical analyses, including Friedman test and post hoc analysis, were employed to compare the accuracy of each IOL power calculation formula between the two groups. Additionally, a multiple regression analysis was conducted to identify variables influencing the accuracy of intraocular lens power calculation formulas. Results In targeting myopia, all IOL formulas tended to exhibit a greater refractive error compared to when targeting emmetropic eyes. Notably, the Haigis, SRK/T, and Holladay 2 formulas were found to be highly influenced by this trend, while the modern formulas were less affected.

The absolute prediction error (APE) of spherical equivalent (SE) and cylinder (CYL) was calculated based on K and TK (including posterior corneal surface) data recorded 6 weeks after IOL implantation. APE was calculated as the difference between the postoperative refraction and the refractive error predicted by three classic IOL calculation methods (Haigis/Haigis-T, Barrett Universal II, Barrett Toric Calculator) and two new formulas developed for TK (Barrett TK Universal II, Barrett TK Toric). For APE in SE, the Haigis-T (K versus TK) and Barrett Universal II (K) versus Barrett TK Universal II (TK) were compared. For APE in CYL, the Haigis-T (K versus TK) and Barrett Toric Calculator (K) versus Barrett TK Toric formula (TK) were compared.\n\n\nRESULTS\nMean APE in SE and CYL was lower based on TK values compared to K, with a mean APE difference (K - TK) of 0.011 ± 0.107 diopters (D) (SE Haigis-T; 95% confidence interval [CI]: -0.004 to infinity), 0.016 ± 0.113 D (SE: Barrett Universal II versus Barrett TK Universal II; 95% CI: 0.0005 to infinity), 0.103 ± 0.173 D (CYL: Haigis-T; 95% CI: 0.0791 to infinity), and 0.020 ± 0.148 D (CYL: Barrett Toric versus Barrett TK Toric; 95% CI: -0.0002 to infinity). APE in SE was within ±0.50 D in 86% (Barrett TK Universal II) versus 84% (Barrett Universal II) of eyes. APE in CYL was within ±0.50 D in 58% (Haigis from TK) versus 44% (Haigis from K) of eyes.\n\n\nCONCLUSIONS\nIn comparison to standard K, a higher prediction accuracy can be expected by using TK values along with the two newly developed formulas.

Two academic otolaryngologists and two LLMs independently evaluated each case. All LLMs operated in deterministic mode (temperature = 0) with standardized single-pass prompting in isolated sessions. Diagnostic accuracy, inter-rater agreement (Cohen’s κ), and subspecialty-specific performance were analyzed. A post hoc power analysis (Cohen’s h = 0.22; α = 0.05) assessed the ability to detect moderate effect sizes.Results: Both LLMs achieved a diagnostic accuracy of 90.0% (63/70), with no significant difference between them (p = 1.00) and substantial inter-model agreement (κ = 0.68). Human evaluators achieved accuracies of 97.1% and 92.9%, with fair inter-rater agreement (κ = 0.26).

Building on this, we introduce DecompTune, a post-training method that teaches models to produce answer decompositions as intermediate reasoning steps. We curate a diverse dataset of complex QA tasks, annotated with decompositions by a strong LLM, and post-train Qwen-2.5 (7B and 14B) using a two-stage SFT + GRPO pipeline with task-specific curated rewards.

Here we investigate the hierarchical modular (or \"modules-within-modules\") decomposition of human brain functional networks, measured using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) in 18 healthy volunteers under no-task or resting conditions. We used a customized template to extract networks with more than 1800 regional nodes, and we applied a fast algorithm to identify nested modular structure at several hierarchical levels. We used mutual information, 0 < I < 1, to estimate the similarity of community structure of networks in different subjects, and to identify the individual network that is most representative of the group. Results show that human brain functional networks have a hierarchical modular organization with a fair degree of similarity between subjects, I=0.63. The largest 5 modules at the highest level of the hierarchy were medial occipital, lateral occipital, central, parieto-frontal and fronto-temporal systems; occipital modules demonstrated less sub-modular organization than modules comprising regions of multimodal association cortex. Connector nodes and hubs, with a key role in inter-modular connectivity, were also concentrated in association cortical areas. We conclude that methods are available for hierarchical modular decomposition of large numbers of high resolution brain functional networks using computationally expedient algorithms.

Approaches based on Deep Artificial Neural Networks (DANN) are very popular in our days. Depending on the learning task, the exact form of DANNs is determined via their multi-layer architecture, activation functions and the so-called loss function. However, for a majority of deep learning approaches based on DANNs, the kernel structure of neural signal processing remains the same, where the node response is encoded as a linear superposition of neural activity, while the non-linearity is triggered by the activation functions. In the current paper, we suggest to analyze the neural signal processing in DANNs from the point of view of homogeneous chaos theory as known from polynomial chaos expansion (PCE). From the PCE perspective, the (linear) response on each node of a DANN could be seen as a $1^{st}$ degree multi-variate polynomial of single neurons from the previous layer, i.e. linear weighted sum of monomials. From this point of view, the conventional DANN structure relies implicitly (but erroneously) on a Gaussian distribution of neural signals. Additionally, this view revels that by design DANNs do not necessarily fulfill any orthogonality or orthonormality condition for a majority of data-driven applications. Therefore, the prevailing handling of neural signals in DANNs could lead to redundant representation as any neural signal could contain some partial information from other neural signals. To tackle that challenge, we suggest to employ the data-driven generalization of PCE theory known as arbitrary polynomial chaos (aPC) to construct a corresponding multi-variate orthonormal representations on each node of a DANN to obtain Deep arbitrary polynomial chaos neural networks.", + "claimed_authors": [ + "Sergey Oladyshkin", + "Timothy Praditia", + "Ilja Kröker", + "Farid Mohammadi", + "Wolfgang Nowak", + "Sebastian Otte" + ], + "claimed_title": "The Deep Arbitrary Polynomial Chaos Neural Network or how Deep Artificial Neural Networks could benefit from Data-Driven Homogeneous Chaos Theory", + "claimed_venue": "arXiv", + "claimed_year": 2023, + "primary_pointer": "2306.14753" + }, + "details": "query-relevance 0.235 < 0.3 (query='How does the clustering coefficient of small-world graphs influence the relative', candidate_title='The Deep Arbitrary Polynomial Chaos Neural Network or how Deep Artificial Neural Networks could benefit from Data-Driven Homogeneous Chaos Theory')", + "failed_at": "2026-05-07T17:53:21Z", + "reason": "query_irrelevant" + }, + { + "candidate": { + "backend": "arxiv", + "claimed_abstract": "The small-world phenomenon is found in many self-organising systems.

Here we show that instantaneous events such as the release of news items via Twitter, coupled with active community arguments related to the news item form a particular type of small-world network. Analysis of the centralities in the network reveals that community arguments maintain the small-world network whilst actively maintaining the cohesiveness and boundary of the group. The results demonstrate how an active Twitter community unconsciously forms a small-world network whilst interacting locally with a bordering community. Over time, such local interactions brought about the global emergence of the small-world network, connecting media channels with human activities. Understanding the small-world phenomenon in relation to online social or civic movement is important, as evident in the spate of online activists that tipped the power of governments for the better or worst in recent times. The support, or removal of high centrality nodes in such networks has important ramifications in the self-expression of society and civic discourses.

Such a procedure leads to underestimation of the neighborhood clustering in sparse networks. We propose to include $θ$ as the proportion of leafs and isolated nodes to estimate the contribution of these cases and provide a formula for estimating a clustering coefficient excluding these cases from the Watts and Strogatz (1998 Nature 393 440-2) definition of the clustering coefficient. Excluding leafs and isolated nodes leads to values which are up to 140% higher than the traditional values for the observed networks indicating that neighborhood connectivity is normally underestimated. We find that the definition of the clustering coefficient has a major effect when comparing different networks. For metabolic networks of 43 organisms, relations changed for 58% of the comparisons when a different definition was applied.

Early detection of hard exudates plays a crucial role in identifying DR, which aids in treating diabetes and preventing vision loss. However, the unique characteristics of hard exudates, ranging from their inconsistent shapes to indistinct boundaries, pose significant challenges to existing segmentation techniques. To address these issues, we present a novel supervised contrastive learning framework to optimize hard exudate segmentation. Specifically, we introduce a patch-wise density contrasting scheme to distinguish between areas with varying lesion concentrations, and therefore improve the model’s proficiency in segmenting small lesions.

This Part I aimed at elucidating how sampling range and resolution affect the convergence of DMD modes.

We numerically simulated the flow by the dynamic-stress Large-Eddies Simulation with Near-Wall Resolution. With the large-quantity, high-fidelity data, we parametrized and identified four global convergence states: Initialization, Transition, Stabilization, and Divergence with increasing sampling range. Results showed that the Stabilization is the optimal state for modal convergence, in which DMD output becomes independent of the sampling range. The Initialization state also yields sufficient accuracy for most system reconstruction tasks. Moreover, defying popular beliefs, over-sampling causes algorithmic instability: as the temporal dimension, n, approaches and transcends the spatial dimension, m (i.e., m < n), the output diverges and becomes meaningless.

The first OM U-band measurement is consistent with the quiescent level observed about one year later thanks to ground follow-up observations. This brown dwarf was not detected in X-rays by XMM-Newton during the OM observation. We discuss the possible sources of U-band variability for this young brown dwarf, namely a magnetic flare, non-steady accretion onto the substellar surface, and rotational modulation of a hot spot.

While computational techniques, especially machine learning models have become increasingly prevalent for this endpoint, they rely on a single modality. In this work, we introduce a novel stacked ensemble based mutagenicity prediction model which incorporate multiple modalities such as simplified molecular input line entry system (SMILES) and molecular graph. These modalities capture diverse information about molecules such as substructural, physicochemical, geometrical and topological. To derive substructural, geometrical and physicochemical information, we use SMILES, while topological information is extracted through a graph attention network (GAT) via molecular graph. Our model uses a stacked ensemble of machine learning classifiers to make predictions using these multiple features. We employ the explainable artificial intelligence (XAI) technique SHAP (Shapley Additive Explanations) to determine the significance of each classifier and the most relevant features in the prediction. We demonstrate that our method surpasses SOTA methods on two standard datasets across various metrics.

A minimal set of features was developed by applying variance inflation analysis to the correlation structure of the feature space.

To overcome these limitations, we propose a Prior-Guided Bimodal Interactive Black-Box Jailbreak Attack for toxicity maximization, referred to as PBI-Attack.

The toxicity level is quantified using a well-trained evaluation model. Experiments demonstrate that PBI-Attack outperforms previous state-of-the-art jailbreak methods, achieving an average attack success rate of 92.5% across three open-source LVLMs and around 67.3% on three closed-source LVLMs. Disclaimer: This paper contains potentially disturbing and offensive content.", + "claimed_authors": [ + "Ruoxi Cheng", + "Yizhong Ding", + "Shuirong Cao", + "Ranjie Duan", + "Xiaoshuang Jia", + "Shaowei Yuan", + "Simeng Qin", + "Zhiqiang Wang", + "Xiaojun Jia" + ], + "claimed_title": "PBI-Attack: Prior-Guided Bimodal Interactive Black-Box Jailbreak Attack for Toxicity Maximization", + "claimed_venue": "arXiv", + "claimed_year": 2024, + "primary_pointer": "2412.05892" + }, + "details": "query-relevance 0.000 < 0.3 (query='To what extent do explicit structural motifs explain variance in mutagenicity ou', candidate_title='PBI-Attack: Prior-Guided Bimodal Interactive Black-Box Jailbreak Attack for Toxicity Maximization')", + "failed_at": "2026-05-07T17:47:05Z", + "reason": "query_irrelevant" + }, + { + "candidate": { + "backend": "arxiv", + "claimed_abstract": "Toxicity and abuse are common in online peer-production communities.

Radiomics methods have been widely used for outcome prediction from medical images. However, these methods are limited by their reliance on intractable manual segmentation of tumor regions. Recently, deep learning methods have been proposed to perform end-to-end outcome prediction so as to remove the reliance on manual segmentation. Unfortunately, without segmentation masks, these methods will take the whole image as input, such that makes them difficult to focus on tumor regions and potentially unable to fully leverage the prognostic information within the tumor regions. In this study, we propose a radiomics-enhanced deep multi-task framework for outcome prediction from PET/CT images, in the context of HEad and neCK TumOR segmentation and outcome prediction challenge (HECKTOR 2022). In our framework, our novelty is to incorporate radiomics as an enhancement to our recently proposed Deep Multi-task Survival model (DeepMTS). The DeepMTS jointly learns to predict the survival risk scores of patients and the segmentation masks of tumor regions. Radiomics features are extracted from the predicted tumor regions and combined with the predicted survival risk scores for final outcome prediction, through which the prognostic information in tumor regions can be further leveraged.

The necessity of changing the basic vector of development of modern toxicology in view of the achievements in the field of computer science and information technology is proved. In the framework of the study, attention was focused on the in silico approach, which allows to draw conclusions about the genotoxicity of a chemical compound in accordance with the identified functional groups that may underlie the manifestations of mutagenicity. The Ames system for determining structural markers of mutagenicity was implemented in accordance with publicly available databases of chemical compounds (EFSA, Kazius/Bursi and Hansen). The initial number of the merged dataset was increased by mycotoxins, and duplicates were removed. For each xenobiotic presented in the dataset, the mutagenic potential was determined using the in vitro Ames test. In order to effectively identify functional groups that may be signals of mutagenicity, it was decided to divide the xenobiotics of the combined data set into five structural classes. Such an approach to the formation of homogeneous groups of xenobiotics that may exhibit potential genotoxic properties allows us to identify structural markers of Ames mutagenicity within each class of mutagens. To obtain reliable information on the presence of a certain functional group - mutagenicity signal, taking into account the studied structural class of xenobiotics, it was proposed to use distance matrices calculated for each mutagen/non-mutagen pair of the combined data set. The similarity between the compounds was evaluated using classical similarity evaluation metrics (Tanimoto and Heming) according to the calculated three types of molecular fingerprints for each xenobiotic. The last stage of the implementation of the Ames system for detecting structural markers of mutagenicity was associated with the search for and application of an effective algorithm for visualizing multidimensional data. The literature analysis allowed us to choose the optimal algorithm for solving this problem. The chosen algorithm (t-SNE) allows multidimensional data (distance matrices for all mutagens and non-mutagens) to be represented in two-dimensional space. This visualization allows us to find all pairs (mutagen/non-mutagen) that have a sufficiently high similarity index and draw conclusions about the presence of certain functional groups that may underlie the manifestations of mutagenicity for each of the five structural classes of potential mutagens. It is quite interesting from the scientific point of view to analyze the effectiveness of using different types of structure fingerprints to identify structural warnings of Ames mutagenicity, which was carried out in the framework of this study. The result of the work is the developed software that allows determining structural markers of Ames mutagenicity based on the similarity of the structure fingerprints of chemical compounds represented in the combined data set.

This study aimed to identify the optimal combination of molecular fingerprints (pattern-based versus algorithm-based) and machine learning algorithms (simple versus complex) for developing explainable toxicity prediction models through an comprehensive investigation of the ToxCast/Tox21 bioassay data set. For 1092 ToxCast/Tox21 assays, five molecular fingerprints (MACCS, Morgan, RDKit, Layered, and Patterned) and six algorithms (MLP, GBT, Random Forest, kNN, Logistic Regression, and Naïve Bayes) were used to train the models. Results showed that 35 models revealed acceptable performance (F1 score or accuracy is 0.8 or higher). Among the combinations, either MACCS or Morgan, paired with Random Forest, demonstrated robust performance compared with other molecular fingerprints and algorithms. MACCS and Random Forest are valuable, even when prioritizing interpretability. Consequently, the MACCS-Random Forest combination model based on four assays, targeting G protein-coupled receptor and kinase, were identified and they can be used to discern specific structural features or patterns in chemical compounds, offering explainable insights into toxicity-related chemical structures.

The two complementary models have been combined in a consensus model, improving performance compared to each individual model (94% correct predictions) and increasing confidence in predictions.

To investigate, a preterm infant study was conducted; infant fecal samples were collected during the infants' first month of postnatal age, resulting in functional compositional microbiome data, and neurobehavioral outcomes were measured when infants reached 36-38 weeks of post-menstrual age. To identify potential microbiome markers and estimate how the trajectories of gut microbiome compositions during early postnatal stage impact later neurobehavioral outcomes of the preterm infants, we innovate a sparse log-contrast regression with functional compositional predictors. The functional simplex structure is strictly preserved, and the functional compositional predictors are allowed to have sparse, smoothly varying, and accumulating effects on the outcome through time.

In recent years, growing attention has been directed toward the interaction between the gut microbiota and the central nervous system (CNS). The gut-brain axis (GBA), as a bidirectional communication pathway, plays an increasingly recognized role in regulating cognitive functions. Ganoderma lucidum polysaccharides (GLP), a traditional medicinal and edible substance, can regulate gut microbiota homeostasis and short-chain fatty acid (SCFAs) levels through the GBA. GLP reduces the Firmicutes/Bacteroidetes ratio, significantly increases the abundance of Lactobacillus, and further suppresses oxidative stress and inflammatory responses by controlling microglial overactivation and neuroinflammation, thereby enhancing the expression of synapse-associated proteins and brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF). Consequently, GLP shows potential for improving cognitive dysfunction.

In this study, we established a natural aging model by exposing mice to a high-fat diet and chronic stress for 220 consecutive days. Our findings revealed that barley polysaccharides ameliorated cognitive deficits, particularly long-term memory, by modulating neurotransmitter levels and reducing corticosterone. Barley polysaccharides also alleviated lipid metabolism disorders, reduced liver lesions, and decreased body weight as well as the percentage of visceral fat in mice by regulating bile acid and l-lysine metabolism. Additionally, barley polysaccharides enhanced intestinal barrier integrity and reshaped the gut microbiota.

However, the role of TFs in mitigating aging-induced cognitive dysfunction and the underlying mechanism remains largely unknown. Here, we find that TFs effectively improve behavioral impairment via the microbiota-gut-brain axis: TFs maintain gut homeostasis by improving antioxidant ability, strengthening the immune response, increasing the expression of tight junction proteins, restructuring the gut microbiota, and altering core microbiota metabolites, i.e., short-chain fatty acids and essential amino acids (SCFAs and AAs), and upregulating brain neurotrophic factors. Removing the gut microbiota with antibiotics partly abolishes the neuroprotective effects of TFs. Besides, correlation analysis indicates that the decrease in gut microbiota, such as Bacteroidetes and Lachnospiraceae, and the increase in microbiota metabolites' levels are positively correlated with behavioral improvements. Taken together, our findings reveal a potential role of TFs in mitigating aging-driven cognitive dysfunction via the microbiota-gut-brain axis.

Both data sets showed some measure of a correlation with the supergalactic plane, the locus of cosmologically nearby galaxies, radio galaxies and clusters of galaxies. We need a reasonable model of the true intergalactic magnetic field. Using recent cosmological simulations of structure formation in the universe, we estimate the magnetic fields which correspond to the upper limits in the Rotation Measure to distant radio sources. We estimate that the magnetic field strength in supergalactic sheets and filaments may be in the range of 0.1 to 1 muG. If such strengths are realized inside our Local Supercluster, this opens up the possibility to focus charged particles in the direction perpendicular to the supergalatic plane, analoguously but in the opposite direction to solar wind modulation. If focusing exists, it means that for all particles captured into the sheets, the dilution with distance d is 1/d instead of 1/d^2.

Although significant progress has been achieved by these supervised methods, the longstanding lack of large-scale high-quality labeled data severely hinders their further improvements. Motivated by the recent success of self-supervised learning in computer vision, this paper introduces a self-supervised approach, termed Self-supervised Video Facial Affect Perceiver (SVFAP), to address the dilemma faced by supervised methods. Specifically, SVFAP leverages masked facial video autoencoding to perform self-supervised pre-training on massive unlabeled facial videos. Considering that large spatiotemporal redundancy exists in facial videos, we propose a novel temporal pyramid and spatial bottleneck Transformer as the encoder of SVFAP, which not only largely reduces computational costs but also achieves excellent performance. To verify the effectiveness of our method, we conduct experiments on nine datasets spanning three downstream tasks, including dynamic facial expression recognition, dimensional emotion recognition, and personality recognition. Comprehensive results demonstrate that SVFAP can learn powerful affect-related representations via large-scale self-supervised pre-training and it significantly outperforms previous state-of-the-art methods on all datasets.

Approaches based on Deep Artificial Neural Networks (DANN) are very popular in our days. Depending on the learning task, the exact form of DANNs is determined via their multi-layer architecture, activation functions and the so-called loss function. However, for a majority of deep learning approaches based on DANNs, the kernel structure of neural signal processing remains the same, where the node response is encoded as a linear superposition of neural activity, while the non-linearity is triggered by the activation functions. In the current paper, we suggest to analyze the neural signal processing in DANNs from the point of view of homogeneous chaos theory as known from polynomial chaos expansion (PCE). From the PCE perspective, the (linear) response on each node of a DANN could be seen as a $1^{st}$ degree multi-variate polynomial of single neurons from the previous layer, i.e. linear weighted sum of monomials. From this point of view, the conventional DANN structure relies implicitly (but erroneously) on a Gaussian distribution of neural signals. Additionally, this view revels that by design DANNs do not necessarily fulfill any orthogonality or orthonormality condition for a majority of data-driven applications. Therefore, the prevailing handling of neural signals in DANNs could lead to redundant representation as any neural signal could contain some partial information from other neural signals. To tackle that challenge, we suggest to employ the data-driven generalization of PCE theory known as arbitrary polynomial chaos (aPC) to construct a corresponding multi-variate orthonormal representations on each node of a DANN to obtain Deep arbitrary polynomial chaos neural networks.", + "claimed_authors": [ + "Sergey Oladyshkin", + "Timothy Praditia", + "Ilja Kröker", + "Farid Mohammadi", + "Wolfgang Nowak", + "Sebastian Otte" + ], + "claimed_title": "The Deep Arbitrary Polynomial Chaos Neural Network or how Deep Artificial Neural Networks could benefit from Data-Driven Homogeneous Chaos Theory", + "claimed_venue": "arXiv", + "claimed_year": 2023, + "primary_pointer": "2306.14753" + }, + "details": "query-relevance 0.000 < 0.3 (query='How does brief exposure to emotional facial expressions (positive vs', candidate_title='The Deep Arbitrary Polynomial Chaos Neural Network or how Deep Artificial Neural Networks could benefit from Data-Driven Homogeneous Chaos Theory')", + "failed_at": "2026-05-07T18:47:06Z", + "reason": "query_irrelevant" + }, + { + "candidate": { + "backend": "arxiv", + "claimed_abstract": "Random Neural Networks (RNNs) are a class of Neural Networks (NNs) that can also be seen as a specific type of queuing network.

Our goal was to put in perspective three different types of affective states (induced affective states, more sustained mood states and affective traits such as depression and anxiety) and investigate how they may interact and influence emotion perception. Here, we hypothesized that absorption into positive and negative emotional episodes generate sustained affective states that outlast the episode period and bias the interpretation of facial expressions in a perceptual decision-making task. We also investigated how such effects are influenced by more sustained mood states and by individual affect traits (depression and anxiety) and whether they interact. Transient emotional states were induced using movie-clips, after which participants performed a forced-choice emotion classification task with morphed facial expressions ranging from fear to happiness. Using a psychometric approach, we show that negative (vs. neutral) clips increased participants’ propensity to classify ambiguous faces as fearful during several minutes. In contrast, positive movies biased classification toward happiness only for those clips perceived as most absorbing. Negative mood, anxiety and depression had a stronger effect than transient states and increased the propensity to classify ambiguous faces as fearful.

In high-threat contexts, rapid and accurate decoding of others’ emotions is adaptively advantageous. Grounded in neurocognitive models of face processing and vigilance, we tested whether brief perceptual adaptation to emotionally salient scenes, real-world disaster exposure, and pre-traumatic stress reactions enhance facial-emotion categorization. Methods: Fifty healthy adults reported prior direct exposure to catastrophic events (present/absent) and completed the Pre-Traumatic Stress Reactions Checklist (Pre-Cl; low/high). In a computerized task, participants viewed a single adaptor image for 5 s—negative (disaster), positive (pleasant environment), or neutral (phase-scrambled)—and then categorized a target face as emotional (fearful, angry, happy) or neutral as quickly and accurately as possible. Performance was compared across adaptation conditions and target emotions and examined as a function of disaster exposure and Pre-Cl. Results: Emotional adaptation (negative or positive) yielded better performance than neutral adaptation. Higher-order interactions among adaptation condition, target emotion, disaster exposure, and Pre-Cl indicated that the magnitude of facilitation varied across specific facial emotions and was modulated by both experiential (exposed vs. non-exposed) and dispositional (low vs. high Pre-Cl) factors. These effects support a combined influence of short-term contextual tuning and longer-term experience on facial-emotion categorization. Conclusions: Brief exposure to emotionally salient scenes facilitates subsequent categorization of facial emotions relative to neutral baselines, and this benefit is differentially shaped by prior disaster exposure and pre-traumatic stress.

Surprisingly, short-duration primes that are around the threshold for conscious awareness typically result in stronger effects compared to long-duration primes. The misattribution effect theory suggest that subliminal primes do not provide sufficient cognitive processing time for the affective feeling to be attributed to the prime. Instead, the neutral target being evaluated is credited for the affective experience. In everyday social interactions, we shift our gaze from one face to another, typically contemplating each face for only a few seconds. It is reasonable to assume that no affective priming takes place during such interactions. To investigate whether this is indeed the case, participants were asked to rate the valence of faces displayed one by one. Each face image simultaneously served as both a target (primed by the previous trial) and a prime (for the next trial). Depending on the participant’s response time, images were typically displayed for about 1–2 s. As predicted by the misattribution effect theory, neutral targets were not affected by positive affective priming. However, non-neutral targets showed a robust priming effect, with emotional faces being perceived as even more negative or positive when the previously seen face was emotionally congruent.

Our approach involves generating a single realisation of the initial power spectrum of density perturbations and studying how truncation of this power spectrum on scales larger than L_cut affects the structure of dark matter haloes at z=0. In particular, we have examined the cases of L_cut = f_cut L_box with f_cut=1 (i.e. no truncation), 1/2, 1/3 and 1/4. In common with previous studies, we find that the suppression of long wavelength perturbations reduces the strength of clustering, as measured by a suppression of the 2-point correlation function xi(r), and reduces the numbers of the most massive haloes, as reflected in the depletion of the high mass end of the mass function n(M). Interestingly, we find that truncation has little impact on the internal properties of haloes. The masses of high mass haloes decrease in a systematic manner as L_cut is reduced, but the distribution of concentrations is unaffected. On the other hand, the median spin parameter is ~50% lower in runs with f_cut<1. We argue that this is an imprint of the linear growth phase of the halo's angular momentum by tidal torquing, and that the absence of any measurable trend in concentration and the weak trend observed in halo shape reflect the importance of virialisation and complex mass accretion histories for these quantities. These results are of interest for studies that require high mass resolution and statistical samples of simulated haloes, such as simulations of the population of first stars.

This paper describes a method by which the data from many cascading failure simulations can be transformed into a graph-based model of influences that provides actionable information about the many ways that cascades propagate in a particular system. The resulting \"influence graph\" model is Markovian, in that component outage probabilities depend only on the outages that occurred in the prior generation. To validate the model we compare the distribution of cascade sizes resulting from $n-2$ contingencies in a $2896$ branch test case to cascade sizes in the influence graph.

Methods: A total of 160 adults, including 70 healthy volunteers and 90 patients with chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS), were recruited for this study. Participants were further categorized into “fair ETF” and “poor ETF” groups based on their scores on the Eustachian Tube Dysfunction Questionnaire (ETDQ-7). Eustachian tube function was assessed using both the nine-step test and the ETDQ-7. The diagnostic accuracy of the maximal peak pressure difference (MPD) from the nine-step test was evaluated, using an ETDQ-7 score of ≥14 as the reference standard. Discriminative ability was analyzed using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves. Results: An MPD value of ≤4 yielded an area under the ROC curve (AUC) of 0.619, indicating moderate discriminative ability in the Taiwanese population. The median MPD value on the nine-step test was 9.5 (interquartile range [IQR]: 4.5–14.0) in participants with an ETDQ-7 score of <14, compared to a median MPD value of 7.5 (IQR: 2.5–12.0) in those with an ETDQ-7 score of ≥14 (p = 0.033).

Sources of such deformation may relate to processes such as magma inflow and outflow, motion and phase changes of hydrothermal fluids or magma volatiles, heat transfer from magmatic bodies and heat-mining from geothermal extraction. The Hengill area, in southwest Iceland, hosts two active volcanic systems, Hengill and Hrómundartindur, and two high-temperature geothermal power plants, Hellisheiði and Nesjavellir. Using a combination of geodetic data sets (GNSS and InSAR; Global Navigation Satellite Systems and Interferometry Synthetic Aperture Radar, respectively) and a non-linear inversion scheme to estimate the optimal analytical model parameters, we investigate the ground deformation between 2017–2018. Due to other ongoing deformation processes in the area, such as plate motion, subsidence in the two geothermal production fields, and deep-seated source of contraction since 2006, we estimate 2017–2018 difference velocities by subtracting background deformation, determined from data spanning 2015–2017 (InSAR) or 2009–2017 (GNSS). This method highlights changes in ground deformation observed in 2017–2018 compared to prior years: uplift signal of ∼10 km diameter located in the eastern part of the Hengill area, and geothermal production-related temporal changes in deformation near Húsmúli, in the western part of the Hengill area. We find an inflation source located between the Hengill and Hrómundartindur volcanic complexes, lasting for ∼5 months, with a maximum uplift of ∼12 mm. Our model inversions give a source at depth of ∼6–7 km, located approximately in the same crustal volume as an inferred contracting source in 2006–2017, within the local brittle-ductile transition zone. No significant changes were observed in local seismicity, borehole temperatures and pressures during the uplift episode. These transient inflation and deflation sources are located ∼3 km NW from a source of non-eruptive uplift in the area (1993–1999).

Heart rate was recorded in 50 adult healthy subjects for 50 min in a seated position. Eight standard HRV parameters were calculated from five evenly spaced 5 min intervals. Stability was assessed by comparing the mean values of HRV parameters between the consecutive five test–retest measurements. Absolute reliability was determined by standard error of measurement, and relative reliability by intraclass correlation coefficient. The sample size required to detect a mean difference of ≥30% of between-subject standard deviation was estimated. As expected, almost all HRV parameters had poor absolute reliability but most HRV parameters had substantial to excellent relative reliability. We found statistically significant differences in almost all HRV parameters between the first 20 min and the last 30 min of the session. The estimated sample size ranged from 19 to 300 subjects for the first 20 min and from 36 to 194 subjects for the last 30 min of the session, depending on the selected HRV parameter.

Nevertheless, various stakeholders have expressed concern about the existing green gap, which greatly hinders their marketing efforts. This situation persists as mainstream research investigates people’s purchasing intentions, under the notion that the intention to perform a specific behaviour would generally predict the actual behaviour. The key argument of this study is that examining the actual consumption behaviour of organic foods is the ideal approach towards investigating purchase intention drivers as a proxy for consumption. In response to the green gap, the theory of planned behaviour is expanded by including the dimension of temporal orientation, i.e., a future orientation that has an influential but unrecognised effect on many human behaviours. In contrast to the prevalent operationalisation of attitude, the term is defined as a product-specific attitude which is markedly dissimilar to the environmental attitude in its orientations. The Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling technique was used to analyse the research model.

We propose a household service gap model that characterizes societal risks at the household level by examining service disruptions as threats, level of tolerance of households to disruptions as susceptibility, and experienced hardship as an indicator for the realized impacts of risk. The concept of “zone of tolerance” for the service disruptions was encapsulated to account for different capabilities of the households to endure the adverse impacts. The model was tested and validated in the context of power outages through survey data from the residents of Harris County in the aftermath of Hurricane Harvey in 2017. The results show that households’ need for utility service, preparedness level, the existence of substitutes, possession of social capital, previous experience with disasters, and risk communication affect the zone of tolerance within which households cope with service outages. In addition, sociodemographic characteristics, such as race and residence type, are shown to influence the zone of tolerance, and hence the level of hardship experienced by the affected households. The results reveal that population subgroups show variations in the tolerance level of service disruptions. The findings highlight the importance of integrating social dimensions into the resilience planning of infrastructure systems.

Existing research seldomly concentrated on college students and their PEB. This study aims to address the gap in understanding PEB among college students.\n\n\nDesign/methodology/approach\nThis study constructed an integrated model combining the theory of planned behavior (TPB) and the value-belief-norm (VBN) theory, with the novel addition of environmental risk perception. Through an empirical study involving 844 college students, this research analyzed the data with the structural model.\n\n\nFindings\nThe authors identified that environmental values, attitudes, perceived behavioral control, subjective norms and risk perception play crucial roles in shaping PEB. This study also revealed age-related differences, highlighting that older students might be less influenced by attitudes and subjective norms due to more established habits. Findings underscore the importance of fostering PEB through environmental education, promotion of low-carbon lifestyle choices and incentives. This investigation not only enriches the theoretical framework for PEB but also offers practical insights for policymakers and educators to enhance sustainable practices among the youth.\n\n\nResearch limitations/implications\nThough the authors offer valuable findings, this research has two key limitations: the use of observational data for hypothesis testing, which weakens causal inference, and the collection of data through questionnaires, which may be biased by social desirability. Respondents of self-report tend to behave in the socially desired ways. Consequently, they usually exaggerate their pro-environmental intention or PEB. To comprehend the influencing aspects more thoroughly, future research should consider incorporating experimental methods and objective data, such as digitalized data.\n\n\nPractical implications\nThe findings provide valuable evidence for guiding college students’ PEB, including strengthening environmental education, promoting of low-carbon fashion and providing incentives for PEBs.\n\n\nOriginality/value\nFirst, the authors examine the internal factors influencing PEB among Chinese university students within the “dual-carbon” initiative framework. Second, this research pioneers the use of structural equation modeling to merge TPB and VBN theories, offering a predictive model for university students’ PEB.

The system model features a unified representation of AC and DC subgrids as well as a concise and flexible converter model, which enable the compact description of a hybrid AC/DC power system and its OPF problem.

This enables the direct generalization of relaxation-related results for AC grids to hybrid AC/DC grids, which is shown for the semidefinite and second-order cone relaxation as well as associated results on exactness and locational marginal prices.

To mitigate this predicament, we propose CMAL, a Cross-Modal Associative Learning framework with anchor points detection and cross-modal associative learning for VLP. Specifically, we first respectively embed visual objects and textual tokens into separate hypersphere spaces to learn intra-modal hidden features, and then design a cross-modal associative prompt layer to perform anchor point masking and swap feature filling for constructing a hybrid cross-modal associative prompt. Afterwards, we exploit a unified semantic encoder to learn their cross-modal interactive features for context adaptation. Finally, we design an associative mapping classification layer to learn potential associative mappings between modalities at anchor points, within which we develop a fresh self-supervised associative mapping classification task to boost CMAL's performance. Experimental results verify the effectiveness of CMAL, showing that it achieves competitive performance against previous CMCL-based methods on four common downstream vision-and-language tasks, with significantly fewer corpus.

Our results revealed a brain-wide reorganisation of functional connectivity during tonic pain, marked by a global shift from segregation to integration. This shift was characterised by a transition from intra- to internetwork communication, with the Somato-Motor (SomMot) network playing a pivotal role. During innocuous warmth, the SomMot network exhibited significantly higher functional specialisation for localised sensory processing. During noxious heat, however, it shifted to an integrative coordinator, a finding reinforced by a significant discrepancy in global clustering coefficient when intranetwork connections were excluded. We also found that psychological traits modulated global network inferences (GNIs) in distinct, clinically relevant ways: pain catastrophising was positively associated with network segregation and integration during pain, whereas anxiety was negatively associated with segregation and integration during innocuous warmth. Notably, a machine learning model using these GNIs achieved 86% accuracy in classifying noxious heat from innocuous warmth. Together, our findings elucidate the transformation from segregated processing to integrated network dynamics induced by tonic pain, characterised by a transition in the SomMot network functioning as an integrator.

We used a customized template to extract networks with more than 1800 regional nodes, and we applied a fast algorithm to identify nested modular structure at several hierarchical levels. We used mutual information, 0 < I < 1, to estimate the similarity of community structure of networks in different subjects, and to identify the individual network that is most representative of the group. Results show that human brain functional networks have a hierarchical modular organization with a fair degree of similarity between subjects, I=0.63. The largest 5 modules at the highest level of the hierarchy were medial occipital, lateral occipital, central, parieto-frontal and fronto-temporal systems; occipital modules demonstrated less sub-modular organization than modules comprising regions of multimodal association cortex. Connector nodes and hubs, with a key role in inter-modular connectivity, were also concentrated in association cortical areas.

In behavior narrative review, we compare three conditions characterized by psychotic experiences (schizophrenia, substance-use disorder and sensory-deprivation) searching for links between their phenomenological features and the mechanisms underlying their onset. Clinically, psychotic experiences are characterized by the reciprocal contamination of world- and self-related contents, termed 'world/self ambivalence'. Neuroimaging evidence suggests that the imbalance between stimuli-, self-, and attention-related functional networks (visual/auditory, default-mode, and salience network respectively) assumes central relevance in all the conditions considered. Phenomenology and neurobiology were thus interrelated in light of the reviewed literature, identifying two key neuronal mechanisms which may lead to world/self ambivalence. First, psychotic experiences are associated with the relative dominance of one network over the other (default-mode over auditory/visual networks, or vice-versa), prompting an excess of internal or external pressure to the experienced ambivalence between world and self. Second, an altered salience network resting-state functional connectivity could generate a dysregulation of the attentive fluctuations from self- to world-related activity, thus blurring the boundary between the environment and oneself, labelled the 'world/self boundary'.", + "summary_grounded_pdf": false, + "verification_log": { + "final_url": "https://linkinghub.elsevier.com/retrieve/pii/S0925492720300408", + "http_status": 200, + "pdf_sample_score": null, + "query_relevance_score": 0.35, + "redirect_chain": [ + "https://doi.org/10.1016/j.pscychresns.2020.111068" + ], + "summary_grounding_score": 1.0, + "title_token_overlap_score": 1.0, + "url_resolves": true, + "verified_at": "2026-05-07T18:27:52Z" + } + }, + { + "bibliographic_info": { + "authors": [ + "Taeyi You", + "Taekwan Lee", + "G.

Additionally, enriched mice exhibited an improved sensorimotor functional response. Our combined use of sensory stimulus-evoked BOLD fMRI and resting-state fMRI revealed changes at local and global levels, providing a comprehensive perspective.

Nevertheless, existing KG-based LLM reasoning methods only treat KGs as factual knowledge bases and overlook the importance of their structural information for reasoning. In this paper, we propose a novel method called reasoning on graphs (RoG) that synergizes LLMs with KGs to enable faithful and interpretable reasoning. Specifically, we present a planning-retrieval-reasoning framework, where RoG first generates relation paths grounded by KGs as faithful plans. These plans are then used to retrieve valid reasoning paths from the KGs for LLMs to conduct faithful reasoning. Furthermore, RoG not only distills knowledge from KGs to improve the reasoning ability of LLMs through training but also allows seamless integration with any arbitrary LLMs during inference. Extensive experiments on two benchmark KGQA datasets demonstrate that RoG achieves state-of-the-art performance on KG reasoning tasks and generates faithful and interpretable reasoning results.", + "claimed_authors": [ + "Linhao Luo", + "Yuan-Fang Li", + "Gholamreza Haffari", + "Shirui Pan" + ], + "claimed_title": "Reasoning on Graphs: Faithful and Interpretable Large Language Model Reasoning", + "claimed_venue": "International Conference on Learning Representations", + "claimed_year": 2023, + "primary_pointer": "https://doi.org/10.48550/arXiv.2310.01061" + }, + "details": "query-relevance 0.167 < 0.3 (query='Evaluating the Impact of Code Duplication on LLM Code Understanding computer sci', candidate_title='Reasoning on Graphs: Faithful and Interpretable Large Language Model Reasoning')", + "failed_at": "2026-05-07T19:19:09Z", + "reason": "query_irrelevant" + }, + { + "candidate": { + "backend": "semantic_scholar", + "claimed_abstract": "Reasoning in large language models has long been a central research focus, and recent studies employing reinforcement learning (RL) have introduced diverse methods that yield substantial performance gains with minimal or even no external supervision.

However, these users often face misalignment between their intent and generated code, resulting in frustration and rounds of clarification. This work first investigates the cause of this misalignment, which dues to bidirectional ambiguity: both user intents and coding tasks are inherently nonlinear, yet must be expressed and interpreted through linear prompts and code sequences. To address this, we propose direct intent–task matching, a new human–LLM interaction paradigm that externalizes and enables direct manipulation of the LLM understanding, i.e., the coding tasks and their relationships inferred by the LLM prior to code generation.

Using budget-matched reproductions and partial-prompt contamination probes, we find that several widely cited gaps shrink substantially or disappear once budgets, prompts, and dataset versions are matched, and contaminated sets are treated as memorization probes rather than evidence of reasoning.

Traditional register transfer level (RTL) design methods are manual, time-consuming, and prone to errors. While commercial (instruction-tuned) large language models (LLMs) shows promising performance for automation, they pose security and privacy concerns. Open-source models offer alternatives; however, they frequently fall short in quality/correctness, largely due to limited, high-quality RTL code data essential for effective training and generalization. This paper proposes RTL++, a first-of-its-kind LLM-assisted method for RTL code generation that utilizes graph representations of code structures to enhance the quality of generated code. By encoding RTL code into a textualized control flowgraphs (CFG) and data flow graphs (DFG), RTL++ captures the inherent hierarchy, dependencies, and relationships within the code. This structured graph-based approach enhances the context available to LLMs, enabling them to better understand and generate instructions. By focusing on data generation through graph representations, RTL++ addresses the limitations of previous approaches that rely solely on code and suffer from lack of diversity. Experimental results demonstrate that RTL++ outperforms state-of-the-art models fine-tuned for RTL generation, as evaluated using the VerilogEval benchmark's Pass@1/5/10 metric, as well as the RTLLM1.1 model, which highlight the effectiveness of graph-enhanced context in advancing the capabilities of LLM-assisted RTL code generation.", + "summary_grounded_pdf": false, + "verification_log": { + "final_url": "https://arxiv.org/abs/2505.13479", + "http_status": 200, + "pdf_sample_score": null, + "query_relevance_score": 0.3333, + "redirect_chain": [], + "summary_grounding_score": 1.0, + "title_token_overlap_score": 1.0, + "url_resolves": true, + "verified_at": "2026-05-07T19:19:19Z" + } + }, + { + "bibliographic_info": { + "authors": [ + "Manish Bhattarai", + "Javier E.

Our method, based on Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG), substantially improves translation quality by providing contextual examples from which the model can learn in real-time.

The component masses were later measured to be in the range 0.86 to 2.26 Msun.

The effect of these impurities at the atomic scale can either embrittle or strengthen grain boundaries within. Thus, it is imperative to understand the energetics associated with segregation to design materials with desirable properties. Here, molecular statics simulations were employed to analyze the energetics associated with the segregation of various elements (He, H, C, P, and V) to four <100> (Sigma 5 and 13 GBs) and six <110> (Sigma 3,9,and 11 GBs) symmetric tilt grain boundaries in alpha-Fe. This knowledge is important for designing stable interfaces in harsh environments. Simulation results show that the local atomic arrangements within the GB region and the resulting structural units have a significant influence on the magnitude of binding energies of the impurity (interstitial and substitutional) atoms. This data also suggests that the site-to-site variation of energies within a boundary is substantial. Comparing the binding energies of all ten boundaries shows that the Sigma 3(112) boundary possesses a much smaller binding energy for all interstitial and substitutional impurity atoms among the boundaries examined here. Additionally, based on the Rice-Wang model, our total energy calculations show that V has a significant beneficial effect on the Fe grain boundary cohesion, while P has a detrimental effect on grain boundary cohesion, much weaker than H and He. This is significant for applications where extreme environmental damage generates lattice defects and grain boundaries act as sinks for both interstitial and substitutional impurity atoms.

No significant change in the grain size or structure is observed upon Zr dopant addition to a pure Cu polycrystal at moderate temperature, where grain boundary segregation is the dominant behavior. Segregation within the boundary network is inhomogeneous, with some boundaries having local concentrations that are an order of magnitude larger than the global value and others having almost no segregation, and changes to physical parameters such as boundary free volume and energy are found to correlate with dopant concentration. Further, another alloy sample is investigated at a higher temperature to probe the occurrence of widespread transitions in interfacial structure, where a significant fraction of the originally ordered boundaries transition to amorphous complexions, demonstrating the coexistence of multiple complexion types, each with their own distribution of boundary chemical composition.

Unfortunately, the fabrication of nanocrystalline metals often requires non-equilibrium processing routes, which typically limit the specimen size and require large energy budgets. In this study, multiple dopant atoms in ternary Al alloys are deliberately selected to enable segregation to the grain boundary region and promote the formation of amorphous complexions. Three different fully dense bulk nanocrystalline Al alloys (Al-Mg-Y, Al-Fe-Y, and Al-Ni-Y) with small grain sizes were successfully fabricated using a simple powder metallurgy approach, with full densification connected directly to the onset of amorphous complexion formation. All the compositions demonstrate densities above 99% with grain sizes of <60 nm following consolidation via hot pressing at 585 oC. The very fine grain structure results in excellent mechanical properties, with nanoindentation hardness values in the range of 2.2-2.8 GPa. Detailed microstructural characterization verifies the segregation of all dopant species to grain boundaries as well as the formation of amorphous complexions, which suggests their influential role in aiding effective consolidation and endowing thermal stability in the alloys. Moreover, nanorods with a core-shell structure are also observed at the grain boundaries, which likely contribute to the stabilization of the grain structure and high strength.

We investigate the material from the solution heat treated state (475{\\textdegree}C), through the very early stages of aging to the peak aged state at 120{\\textdegree}C and further into the overaged regime at 180{\\textdegree}C. The process starts with solute enrichment on grain boundaries due to equilibrium segregation accompanied by solute depletion in their vicinity, the formation of Guinier--Preston (GP) zones in the solute-enriched grain boundary regions, and GP zones growth and transformation. The equilibrium segregation of solutes to grain boundaries during aging accelerates this sequence compared to the bulk. Analysis of the ~10 nm wide precipitate-free zones (PFZs) adjacent to the solute-enriched grain boundaries 2 shows that the depletion zones are determined by (i) interface equilibrium segregation; (ii) formation and coarsening of the grain boundary precipitates and (iii) the diffusion range of solutes in the matrix.

Approaches based on Deep Artificial Neural Networks (DANN) are very popular in our days. Depending on the learning task, the exact form of DANNs is determined via their multi-layer architecture, activation functions and the so-called loss function. However, for a majority of deep learning approaches based on DANNs, the kernel structure of neural signal processing remains the same, where the node response is encoded as a linear superposition of neural activity, while the non-linearity is triggered by the activation functions. In the current paper, we suggest to analyze the neural signal processing in DANNs from the point of view of homogeneous chaos theory as known from polynomial chaos expansion (PCE). From the PCE perspective, the (linear) response on each node of a DANN could be seen as a $1^{st}$ degree multi-variate polynomial of single neurons from the previous layer, i.e. linear weighted sum of monomials. From this point of view, the conventional DANN structure relies implicitly (but erroneously) on a Gaussian distribution of neural signals. Additionally, this view revels that by design DANNs do not necessarily fulfill any orthogonality or orthonormality condition for a majority of data-driven applications. Therefore, the prevailing handling of neural signals in DANNs could lead to redundant representation as any neural signal could contain some partial information from other neural signals. To tackle that challenge, we suggest to employ the data-driven generalization of PCE theory known as arbitrary polynomial chaos (aPC) to construct a corresponding multi-variate orthonormal representations on each node of a DANN to obtain Deep arbitrary polynomial chaos neural networks.", - "claimed_authors": [ - "Sergey Oladyshkin", - "Timothy Praditia", - "Ilja Kröker", - "Farid Mohammadi", - "Wolfgang Nowak", - "Sebastian Otte" - ], - "claimed_title": "The Deep Arbitrary Polynomial Chaos Neural Network or how Deep Artificial Neural Networks could benefit from Data-Driven Homogeneous Chaos Theory", - "claimed_venue": "arXiv", - "claimed_year": 2023, - "primary_pointer": "2306.14753" - }, - "details": "query-relevance 0.286 < 0.3 (query='Predicting Molecular Dipole Moments with Graph Neural Networks chemistry', candidate_title='The Deep Arbitrary Polynomial Chaos Neural Network or how Deep Artificial Neural Networks could benefit from Data-Driven Homogeneous Chaos Theory')", - "failed_at": "2026-05-07T05:56:11Z", - "reason": "query_irrelevant" - }, - { - "candidate": { - "backend": "arxiv", - "claimed_abstract": "Providing a model that achieves a strong predictive performance and is simultaneously interpretable by humans is one of the most difficult challenges in machine learning research due to the conflicting nature of these two objectives.

In this paper, we present a method to learn prediction intervals for regression-based neural networks automatically in addition to the conventional target predictions.

Our main contribution is the design of a novel loss function for the PI-generation network that takes into account the output of the target-estimation network and has two optimization objectives: minimizing the mean prediction interval width and ensuring the PI integrity using constraints that maximize the prediction interval probability coverage implicitly. Furthermore, we introduce a self-adaptive coefficient that balances both objectives within the loss function, which alleviates the task of fine-tuning. Experiments using a synthetic dataset, eight benchmark datasets, and a real-world crop yield prediction dataset showed that our method was able to maintain a nominal probability coverage and produce significantly narrower PIs without detriment to its target estimation accuracy when compared to those PIs generated by three state-of-the-art neural-network-based methods.

While Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) have significantly advanced molecular property prediction tasks, their high memory footprint, computational demands, and inference latency are often overlooked. These challenges hinder the deployment of property prediction models on resource-constrained devices such as smartphones and IoT devices. Therefore, optimizing storage, reducing resource consumption, and improving inference speed are crucial. This paper presents a systematic approach to molecular networks by integrating GNN models with the DoReFa-Net quantization algorithm.

The study investigates the impact of different bitwidth quantization levels on model performance, using metrics such as RMSE and MAE. Results show that, for physical chemistry datasets, the effectiveness of quantization is highly dependent on the model architecture.

In this work, we advocate the use of deep learning to address this challenge and demonstrate that state-of-the-art deep neural networks (DNNs) are capable of predicting the electronic properties of OSCs at an accuracy comparable with the quantum chemistry methods used for generating training data. We extensively investigate the performances of four recent DNNs (deep tensor neural network, SchNet, message passing neural network, and multilevel graph convolutional neural network) in predicting various electronic properties of an important class of OSCs, i.e., oligothiophenes (OTs), including their HOMO and LUMO energies, excited-state energies and associated transition dipole moments. We find that SchNet shows the best performance for OTs of different sizes (from bithiophene to sexithiophene), achieving average prediction errors in the range of 20-80meV compared to the results from (time-dependent) density functional theory. We show that SchNet also consistently outperforms shallow feed-forward neural networks, especially in difficult cases with large molecules or limited training data. We further show that SchNet could predict the transition dipole moment accurately, a task previously known to be difficult for feed-forward neural networks, and we ascribe the relatively large errors in transition dipole prediction seen for some OT configurations to the charge-transfer character of their excited states. Finally, we demonstrate the effectiveness of SchNet by modeling the UV-Vis absorption spectra of OTs in dichloromethane and a good agreement is observed between the calculated and experimental spectra.", - "summary_grounded_pdf": false, - "verification_log": { - "final_url": "https://pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/acs.jpcc.0c00329", - "http_status": 403, - "pdf_sample_score": null, - "query_relevance_score": 0.8571, - "redirect_chain": [ - "https://doi.org/10.1021/acs.jpcc.0c00329" - ], - "summary_grounding_score": 1.0, - "title_token_overlap_score": 1.0, - "url_resolves": true, - "verified_at": "2026-05-07T05:56:10Z" - } - } - ] - }, - "target_n": 5, - "term_normalized": "predicting molecular dipole moments with graph neural networks chemistry", - "ttls": { - "arxiv": 2592000, - "doi_bib": 7776000, - "http_head": 604800 - } -} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/state/librarian-cache/f139b62d310eaebf58e5452d074ca8ca7457611eae5c6a536d6e2b1a9a6ad772.json b/state/librarian-cache/f139b62d310eaebf58e5452d074ca8ca7457611eae5c6a536d6e2b1a9a6ad772.json deleted file mode 100644 index 24b208f7..00000000 --- a/state/librarian-cache/f139b62d310eaebf58e5452d074ca8ca7457611eae5c6a536d6e2b1a9a6ad772.json +++ /dev/null @@ -1,589 +0,0 @@ -{ - "fetched_at": "2026-05-07T05:21:25Z", - "field": "computer science", - "prompt_version": "1.3.0", - "result": { - "cache_status": "miss", - "context": { - "field": "computer science", - "idea_body_excerpt": "---\nfield: computer science\nsubmitter: google.gemma-3-27b-it\n---\n\n# Investigating the Effectiveness of Different Loss Functions for Training Graph Neural Networks on Small Worlds\n\n**Field**: computer science\n\n## Research question\n\nHow does the clustering coefficient of small-world graphs influence the relative convergence efficiency of supervised versus contrastive loss functions in Graph Neural Networks?\n\n## Motivation\n\nSmall-world networks are ubiquitous in social, biological, and recommendation systems, yet GNN training protocols rarely account for specific topological properties during loss selection.

Approaches based on Deep Artificial Neural Networks (DANN) are very popular in our days. Depending on the learning task, the exact form of DANNs is determined via their multi-layer architecture, activation functions and the so-called loss function. However, for a majority of deep learning approaches based on DANNs, the kernel structure of neural signal processing remains the same, where the node response is encoded as a linear superposition of neural activity, while the non-linearity is triggered by the activation functions. In the current paper, we suggest to analyze the neural signal processing in DANNs from the point of view of homogeneous chaos theory as known from polynomial chaos expansion (PCE). From the PCE perspective, the (linear) response on each node of a DANN could be seen as a $1^{st}$ degree multi-variate polynomial of single neurons from the previous layer, i.e. linear weighted sum of monomials. From this point of view, the conventional DANN structure relies implicitly (but erroneously) on a Gaussian distribution of neural signals. Additionally, this view revels that by design DANNs do not necessarily fulfill any orthogonality or orthonormality condition for a majority of data-driven applications. Therefore, the prevailing handling of neural signals in DANNs could lead to redundant representation as any neural signal could contain some partial information from other neural signals. To tackle that challenge, we suggest to employ the data-driven generalization of PCE theory known as arbitrary polynomial chaos (aPC) to construct a corresponding multi-variate orthonormal representations on each node of a DANN to obtain Deep arbitrary polynomial chaos neural networks.", - "claimed_authors": [ - "Sergey Oladyshkin", - "Timothy Praditia", - "Ilja Kröker", - "Farid Mohammadi", - "Wolfgang Nowak", - "Sebastian Otte" - ], - "claimed_title": "The Deep Arbitrary Polynomial Chaos Neural Network or how Deep Artificial Neural Networks could benefit from Data-Driven Homogeneous Chaos Theory", - "claimed_venue": "arXiv", - "claimed_year": 2023, - "primary_pointer": "2306.14753" - }, - "details": "query-relevance 0.235 < 0.3 (query='How does the clustering coefficient of small-world graphs influence the relative', candidate_title='The Deep Arbitrary Polynomial Chaos Neural Network or how Deep Artificial Neural Networks could benefit from Data-Driven Homogeneous Chaos Theory')", - "failed_at": "2026-05-07T05:19:32Z", - "reason": "query_irrelevant" - }, - { - "candidate": { - "backend": "arxiv", - "claimed_abstract": "Data augmentation has been widely used in machine learning for natural language processing and computer vision tasks to improve model performance.

We show that precious information is contained in the spectrum of the precision matrix that can be extracted once the training of the model is completed. In particular, the eigenvectors explain the directions of maximum sensitivity of the model revealing the active subspace and suggesting potential applications for supervised dimensionality reduction.

The Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor independently detected a gamma-ray burst (GRB 170817A) with a time delay of $\\sim$1.7 s with respect to the merger time. From the gravitational-wave signal, the source was initially localized to a sky region of 31 deg$^2$ at a luminosity distance of $40^{+8}_{-8}$ Mpc and with component masses consistent with neutron stars. The component masses were later measured to be in the range 0.86 to 2.26 Msun. An extensive observing campaign was launched across the electromagnetic spectrum leading to the discovery of a bright optical transient (SSS17a, now with the IAU identification of AT 2017gfo) in NGC 4993 (at $\\sim$40 Mpc) less than 11 hours after the merger by the One-Meter, Two Hemisphere (1M2H) team using the 1 m Swope Telescope. The optical transient was independently detected by multiple teams within an hour. Subsequent observations targeted the object and its environment. Early ultraviolet observations revealed a blue transient that faded within 48 hours. Optical and infrared observations showed a redward evolution over $\\sim$10 days. Following early non-detections, X-ray and radio emission were discovered at the transient's position $\\sim$9 and $\\sim$16 days, respectively, after the merger.

In this study, we present SiReN, a new sign-aware recommender system based on GNN models. Specifically, SiReN has three key components: 1) constructing a signed bipartite graph for more precisely representing users' preferences, which is split into two edge-disjoint graphs with positive and negative edges each, 2) generating two embeddings for the partitioned graphs with positive and negative edges via a GNN model and a multi-layer perceptron (MLP), respectively, and then using an attention model to obtain the final embeddings, and 3) establishing a sign-aware Bayesian personalized ranking (BPR) loss function in the process of optimization.

Specifically, MECCH applies three novel components after feature preprocessing to extract comprehensive information from the input graph efficiently: (1) metapath context construction, (2) metapath context encoder, and (3) convolutional metapath fusion.

A standing challenge for the applicability of on- device intelligence is the excessively high computation cost of training highly accurate Deep Learning (DL) models. These models require a large number of training iterations to reach a high convergence accuracy, hindering their applicability to resource-constrained embedded devices. This paper proposes a novel transformation which changes the topology of the DL architecture to reach an optimal cross-layer connectivity. This, in turn, significantly reduces the number of training iterations required for reaching a target accuracy. Our transformation leverages the important observation that for a set level of accuracy, convergence is fastest when network topology reaches the boundary of a Small-World Network. Small-world graphs are known to possess a specific connectivity structure that enables enhanced signal propagation among nodes. Our small-world models, called SWANNs, provide several intriguing benefits: they facilitate data (gradient) flow within the network, enable feature-map reuse by adding long-range connections and accommodate various network architectures/datasets. Compared to densely connected networks (e.g., DenseNets), SWANNs require a substantially fewer number of training parameters while maintaining a similar level of classification accuracy.

Due to requirements for adaptation to changing environments under biological constraints, these processes in the brain can be hypothesized to be optimized. The principles based on the information optimization are expected to play a central role in affecting the dynamics and topological structure of the brain network. Recent studies on the functional connectivity between brain regions, referred to as the functional connectome, reveal characteristics of their networks, such as self-organized criticality of brain dynamics and small-world topology. However, these important attributes are established separately, and their relations to the principle of the information optimization are unclear. Here, we show that the maximization principle of the mutual information entropy induces the optimal state, at which the small-world network topology and the criticality in the activation dynamics emerge. Our findings, based on the functional connectome analyses, show that according to the increasing mutual information entropy, the coactivation pattern converges to the state of self-organized criticality, and a phase transition of the network topology, which is responsible for the small-world topology, arises simultaneously at the same point. The coincidence of these phase transitions at the same critical point indicates that the criticality of the dynamics and the phase transition of the network topology are essentially rooted in the same phenomenon driven by the mutual information maximization. As a consequence, the two different attributes of the brain, self-organized criticality and small-world topology, can be understood within a unified perspective under the information-based principle.

JUDGE OVER-REJECTION: the strict topical judge was rejecting papers that ARE the canonical lit-review references because they use canonical alt-vocabulary or don't measure the user's exact metric. Audit findings: - PROJ-261: judge admitted 0/22 candidates including the canonical "deduplication / memorization / contamination" papers (Lee 2022, Matton 2024, Allamanis 2019) - PROJ-350 stats: judge admitted only 2/12 from a candidate set that included Bakker 2020, Lakens 2022, Hardwicke 2023 - PROJ-336 neuro: Pang 2023 + Guerreiro 2021 surfaced as candidates but rejected for not explicitly computing "modularity" The "lean YES — adjacent evidence" guidance in v1.3.0/v1.4.0 wasn't strong enough to override the strict "narrowly addresses" framing in the same prompt. 2. EXTRACTOR STILL REVIEW-STYLE NOT EMPIRICAL-POPULATION-STYLE: v1.4.0 produced "sensory deprivation" queries when the literature is indexed under "early deafness" / "Floatation-REST" / "congenital blindness"; produced "code duplication" without bridging to "HumanEval MBPP dataset" (the canonical code-LLM benchmark empirical population vocabulary). Fix: - Judge prompt (relevance_judge.py) rewritten with 6 explicit ACCEPT categories (a-f): (a) Same-mechanism evidence (cross-population, cross-method) (b) Independent-or-dependent variable on the same domain (c) Empirical baseline (e.g., Button 2013 power-distribution) (d) Foundational methodology / canonical reference (e.g., Gilmer 2017 MPNN for any GNN-property question) (e) Empirical-population canonical study (e.g., rs-fMRI in deaf adults for sensory-deprivation question) (f) Cross-vocabulary alt-cluster (e.g., "deduplication" papers for "code duplication" question) With CRITICAL note: "a paper does NOT need to address the FULL correlation in the user's question to count. Lit-review references are individually partial." - Extractor prompt (query_extractor.py) rewritten with 5 REQUIRED VOCABULARY COVERAGE rules: 1. Alt-vocabulary (synonyms literature uses) 2. Empirical-population (e.g., HumanEval MBPP, QM9, IAT, Floatation-REST) — REQUIRED if question references an experimental population/paradigm 3. Sub-community canonical proxy (e.g., "homophily" for "clustering coefficient in GNN") 4. Measured-outcome canonical evaluation framework 5. Causal-mechanism / theoretical-framing Re-runs after fix: - Phase 2 regression: 116/116 PASS (one transient arXiv 429 on re-test passes) - US4 cross-domain: 8/8 PASS in 2h25min, 44 strict-pass total, 0/8 marginal-fallback - Concrete improvements over v1.4.0: * statistics: now surfaces canonical "Brief Report Post Hoc / Observed / A Priori / Retrospective Power" + ANOVA a-priori- vs-post-hoc + pilot RCT sample-size simulation paper (vs v1.4.0's 2 marginal) * CS PROJ-353: 2 strict-pass (vs 1) — extractor now bridges to homophily/contrastive cluster as audit predicted * neuroscience: 4 strict-pass (vs 3) including cross-modal plasticity in single-sided deafness - Concrete extractor wins: "HumanEval MBPP dataset" (code-LLM canonical empirical pop), "QM9 dataset graph neural network" (chem canonical empirical pop), "Watts-Strogatz small-world graphs" (sub-community canonical proxy for ML), "intrinsic connectivity graph metrics" + "modularity global efficiency fMRI" (neuro canonical proxies) Lingering issues identified during manual audit: - JUDGE NON-DETERMINISM: PROJ-261 single-query probe got 3 strict-pass (no marginal); a separate flesh_out re-validation invocation on the same question got 0 strict / 9 marginal. Same prompt + same question → different verdicts. This is LLM temperature noise that prompt-only fixes can't fully solve. Documented in revalidation-results.yaml + diagnostic § 6. - EXTRACTOR FALLBACK BUG: materials science cross-domain run showed the extractor returning only 1 query (the LLM call failed silently → fallback path activated). Fortunately the 1 fallback query brought 20 hits and the judge accepted 6 bullseye papers, but this is a silent regression of fix-up #3. Documented as future-issue. - SOFT-BUDGET OVERRUNS: per-invocation duration grows further under v1.5.0 (longer judge prompt, more permissive judge admitting more candidates → more PDF samples). Several fields exceed the 600s soft target. Cross-domain run took 2h25min overall vs v1.4.0's 1h43min. Both PROJ-261 + PROJ-262 re-validate `verified` under v1.5.0. Bumped librarian prompt_version 1.4.0 -> 1.5.0; wiped stale v1.4.0 cache.

NAs belong to the ‘cohort of concern’ list of genotoxic impurities (ICH M7) because of the mutagenic and carcinogenic potency of this chemical class. In addition, regulatory concerns exist regarding the capacity of the Ames test to predict the carcinogenic potential of NAs because of historically discordant results. The reasons postulated to explain these discordant data generally point to aspects of Ames test study design. These include vehicle solvent choice, liver S9 species, bacterial strain, compound concentration, and use of pre-incubation versus plate incorporation methods. Many of these concerns have their roots in historical data generated prior to the harmonization of Ames test guidelines. Therefore, we investigated various Ames test assay parameters and used qualitative analysis and quantitative benchmark dose modelling to identify which combinations provided the most sensitive conditions in terms of mutagenic potency. Two alkyl-nitrosamines, N-nitrosodimethylamine (NDMA) and N-nitrosodiethylamine (NDEA) were studied. NDMA and NDEA mutagenicity was readily detected in the Ames test and key assay parameters were identified that contributed to assay sensitivity rankings. The pre-incubation method (30-min incubation), appropriate vehicle (water or methanol), and hamster-induced liver S9, alongside Salmonella typhimurium strains TA100 and TA1535 and Escherichia coli strain WP2uvrA(pKM101) provide the most sensitive combination of assay parameters in terms of NDMA and NDEA mutagenic potency in the Ames test. Using these parameters and further quantitative benchmark dose modelling, we show that N-nitrosomethylethylamine (NMEA) is positive in Ames test and therefore should no longer be considered a historically discordant NA. The results presented herein define a sensitive Ames test design that can be deployed for the assessment of NAs to support robust impurity qualifications.", + "claimed_authors": [ + "Dean N Thomas", + "John W.

We report a droplet-based microfluidic Ames test assay using Salmonella typhimurium TA98, combining nanoliter compartmentalization with multiparameter optical detection. Cell density screening identified an optimal inoculum range of 106-107 cells/mL that maximized sensitivity while limiting spontaneous revertants. Dose-response analysis with the reference mutagen 4-nitro-o-phenylenediamine (4-NOPD) revealed clear increases in the fraction of droplets with growth of revertants, followed by a cytotoxic suppression at ≥ 8 μg/mL. A threshold-based evaluation enabled robust quantification of stochastic mutation events at single-droplet resolution. Compared with the classical fluctuation assay, the microfluidic format reduced reagent consumption by > 90%, generated statistically powerful datasets within 48 h, and eliminated subjective scoring.

Approaches based on Deep Artificial Neural Networks (DANN) are very popular in our days. Depending on the learning task, the exact form of DANNs is determined via their multi-layer architecture, activation functions and the so-called loss function. However, for a majority of deep learning approaches based on DANNs, the kernel structure of neural signal processing remains the same, where the node response is encoded as a linear superposition of neural activity, while the non-linearity is triggered by the activation functions. In the current paper, we suggest to analyze the neural signal processing in DANNs from the point of view of homogeneous chaos theory as known from polynomial chaos expansion (PCE). From the PCE perspective, the (linear) response on each node of a DANN could be seen as a $1^{st}$ degree multi-variate polynomial of single neurons from the previous layer, i.e. linear weighted sum of monomials. From this point of view, the conventional DANN structure relies implicitly (but erroneously) on a Gaussian distribution of neural signals. Additionally, this view revels that by design DANNs do not necessarily fulfill any orthogonality or orthonormality condition for a majority of data-driven applications. Therefore, the prevailing handling of neural signals in DANNs could lead to redundant representation as any neural signal could contain some partial information from other neural signals. To tackle that challenge, we suggest to employ the data-driven generalization of PCE theory known as arbitrary polynomial chaos (aPC) to construct a corresponding multi-variate orthonormal representations on each node of a DANN to obtain Deep arbitrary polynomial chaos neural networks.", + "claimed_authors": [ + "Sergey Oladyshkin", + "Timothy Praditia", + "Ilja Kröker", + "Farid Mohammadi", + "Wolfgang Nowak", + "Sebastian Otte" + ], + "claimed_title": "The Deep Arbitrary Polynomial Chaos Neural Network or how Deep Artificial Neural Networks could benefit from Data-Driven Homogeneous Chaos Theory", + "claimed_venue": "arXiv", + "claimed_year": 2023, + "primary_pointer": "2306.14753" + }, + "details": "query-relevance 0.000 < 0.3 (query='To what extent do explicit structural motifs explain variance in mutagenicity ou', candidate_title='The Deep Arbitrary Polynomial Chaos Neural Network or how Deep Artificial Neural Networks could benefit from Data-Driven Homogeneous Chaos Theory')", + "failed_at": "2026-05-08T20:06:30Z", + "reason": "query_irrelevant" + }, + { + "candidate": { + "backend": "arxiv", + "claimed_abstract": "Quantitative Structure-Activity Relationship (QSAR) has proved an invaluable tool in medicinal chemistry.

Here continuous probability distributions are employed to develop insight into the relationship between their parameters and the ROC curve AUC and C-statistic derived from them.\n The ROC curve AUC and C-statistic are shown to have a straight-line relationship with the SD for uniform, half-sine, and symmetric triangular probability distributions, with slight differences in the slope: AUC approx 1/2+0.28 SD/(mean(1-mean)).

All time segments within a cluster then consist of similar behaviors and thus indicate a behavioral predisposition (BPD). We utilize BPDs by training a classifier for each BPD. Empirically, we demonstrate that when the BPD per time segment is known, activity recognition performance can be substantially improved.", + "claimed_authors": [ + "Maximilian Popko", + "Sebastian Bader", + "Stefan Lüdtke", + "Thomas Kirste" + ], + "claimed_title": "Discovering Behavioral Predispositions in Data to Improve Human Activity Recognition", + "claimed_venue": "arXiv", + "claimed_year": 2022, + "primary_pointer": "2207.08816" + }, + "details": "query-relevance 0.000 < 0.3 (query='To what extent do explicit structural motifs explain variance in mutagenicity ou', candidate_title='Discovering Behavioral Predispositions in Data to Improve Human Activity Recognition')", + "failed_at": "2026-05-08T20:06:30Z", + "reason": "query_irrelevant" + }, + { + "candidate": { + "backend": "arxiv", + "claimed_abstract": "Human Activity Recognition (HAR) on mobile devices has been demonstrated to be possible using neural models trained on data collected from the device's inertial measurement units.

This property is of high public concern because it has a close relationship with carcinogenicity and potentially with reproductive toxicity. Experimentally, mutagenicity can be assessed by the Ames test on Salmonella with an estimated experimental reproducibility of 85%; this intrinsic limitation of the in vitro test, along with the need for faster and cheaper alternatives, opens the road to other types of assessment methods, such as in silico structure-activity prediction models.A widely used method checks for the presence of known structural alerts for mutagenicity. However the presence of such alerts alone is not a definitive method to prove the mutagenicity of a compound towards Salmonella, since other parts of the molecule can influence and potentially change the classification. Hence statistically based methods will be proposed, with the final objective to obtain a cascade of modeling steps with custom-made properties, such as the reduction of false negatives.ResultsA cascade model has been developed and validated on a large public set of molecular structures and their associated Salmonella mutagenicity outcome. The first step consists in the derivation of a statistical model and mutagenicity prediction, followed by further checks for specific structural alerts in the \"safe\" subset of the prediction outcome space. In terms of accuracy (i.e., overall correct predictions of both negative and positives), the obtained model approached the 85% reproducibility of the experimental mutagenicity Ames test.ConclusionsThe model and the documentation for regulatory purposes are freely available on the CAESAR website.

Earlier identification of mutagenic compounds in the drug development process is therefore crucial for preventing the progression of unsafe candidates and reducing development costs.

In this work, we introduce a novel stacked ensemble based mutagenicity prediction model which incorporate multiple modalities such as simplified molecular input line entry system (SMILES) and molecular graph. These modalities capture diverse information about molecules such as substructural, physicochemical, geometrical and topological. To derive substructural, geometrical and physicochemical information, we use SMILES, while topological information is extracted through a graph attention network (GAT) via molecular graph. Our model uses a stacked ensemble of machine learning classifiers to make predictions using these multiple features. We employ the explainable artificial intelligence (XAI) technique SHAP (Shapley Additive Explanations) to determine the significance of each classifier and the most relevant features in the prediction. We demonstrate that our method surpasses SOTA methods on two standard datasets across various metrics.

Stability was evaluated by the percentage of gas atoms retained in the bubble, density profiles, hydrogen-bond statistics, and radial distribution functions. Higher initial gas density markedly enhanced stability, and N2-NBs consistently outperformed O2-NBs, consistent with the lower solubility of N2. Alkaline conditions exerted only a minor stabilizing effect, most pronounced for air-NBs. Organic additives affected stability according to their hydrophobicity: hydrophobic hexane substantially increased gas retention, especially at low gas loading, by promoting gas clustering and re-adsorption at the NB interface, whereas hydrophilic solutes had negligible influence. RDF analyses revealed that this stabilization correlates with weakened gas–water hydrogen bonding and enhanced gas–gas and gas–hexane interactions.

Extensivity is recovered by treating the number of lattice sites M as an additional thermodynamic variable. The difference G - μN can be identified with νM where ν is the thermodynamic force conjugate to M. The reinstated Gibbs-Duhem equation can be cast in the form of an adsorption equation and applied to quantify the tendency to vacancy creation under isothermal isobaric conditions.

This study optimizes the low-temperature composition of this alloy system through Nb addition (Mg3.2–xNbx(Sb0.3Bi0.7)1.996Te0.004), characterizing composition, microstructure, and transport properties. A high Mg3Bi2 content improves the band structure by increasing weighted mobility while enhancing the microstructure. Crucially, it suppresses detrimental grain boundary scattering effects for room-temperature applications. While grain boundary scattering suppression is typically achieved through grain growth, our study reveals that Nb addition significantly reduces grain boundary resistance without increasing grain size. This phenomenon is attributed to a grain boundary complexion transition, where Nb addition transforms the highly resistive Mg3Bi2-rich boundary complexion into a less resistive, metal-like interfacial phase. This marks the rare demonstration of chemistry noticeably affecting grain boundary interfacial electrical resistance in Mg3Sb2–Mg3Bi2.

This framework is primarily built on density functional theory calculations and is demonstrated for W-rich binary and ternary alloys, which represent a promising target for fusion energy materials. Our framework first evaluates the grain boundary segregation tendency of dopants and then the energy penalty for amorphization alongside targeted interfacial energy comparison, with the end goal of identifying the best dopants.

Electronic structure analysis, local lattice distortion, and charge density distributions are calculated and used to provide mechanistic explanations for these dopant selections.

Unfortunately, the fabrication of nanocrystalline metals often requires non-equilibrium processing routes, which typically limit the specimen size and require large energy budgets. In this study, multiple dopant atoms in ternary Al alloys are deliberately selected to enable segregation to the grain boundary region and promote the formation of amorphous complexions. Three different fully dense bulk nanocrystalline Al alloys (Al-Mg-Y, Al-Fe-Y, and Al-Ni-Y) with small grain sizes were successfully fabricated using a simple powder metallurgy approach, with full densification connected directly to the onset of amorphous complexion formation. All the compositions demonstrate densities above 99% with grain sizes of <60 nm following consolidation via hot pressing at 585 oC. The very fine grain structure results in excellent mechanical properties, with nanoindentation hardness values in the range of 2.2-2.8 GPa. Detailed microstructural characterization verifies the segregation of all dopant species to grain boundaries as well as the formation of amorphous complexions, which suggests their influential role in aiding effective consolidation and endowing thermal stability in the alloys. Moreover, nanorods with a core-shell structure are also observed at the grain boundaries, which likely contribute to the stabilization of the grain structure and high strength.

The key idea is to first identify sets of assignments which fall in the same symmetry class, and then impose ordering constraints, called Symmetry Breaking Predicates (SBPs), such that only one (or a small subset) of these assignments is allowed to be a solution of the original SAT formula. While this technique has been exploited extensively in the SAT literature, there is little work on using symmetry breaking for SAT Modulo Theories (SMT). In SMT, logical constraints in SAT theories are combined with another set of theory operations defined over non-Boolean variables such as integers, reals, etc. SMT solvers typically use a combination of SAT solving techniques augmented with calls to the theory solver. In this work, we take up the advances in SAT symmetry breaking and apply them to the domain of SMT. Our key technical contribution is the formulation of symmetry breaking over the Boolean skeleton variables, which are placeholders for actual theory operations in SMT solving. These SBPs are then applied over the SAT solving part of the SMT solver. We implement our SBP ideas on top of CVC4, which is a state-of-the-art SMT solver. Our approach can result in significantly faster solutions on several benchmark problems compared to the state-of-the-art. Our final solver is a hybrid of the original CVC4 solver, and an SBP based solver, and can solve up to 3.8% and 3.1% more problems in the QF_NIA category of 2018 and 2019 SMT benchmarks, respectively, compared to CVC4, the top performer in this category.", + "claimed_authors": [ + "Saket Dingliwal", + "Ronak Agarwal", + "Happy Mittal", + "Parag Singla" + ], + "claimed_title": "Advances in Symmetry Breaking for SAT Modulo Theories", + "claimed_venue": "arXiv", + "claimed_year": 2019, + "primary_pointer": "1908.00860" + }, + "details": "query-relevance 0.053 < 0.3 (query='To what extent do non-Gaussian signatures in the Cosmic Microwave Background tem', candidate_title='Advances in Symmetry Breaking for SAT Modulo Theories')", + "failed_at": "2026-05-10T15:56:25Z", + "reason": "query_irrelevant" + }, + { + "candidate": { + "backend": "semantic_scholar", + "claimed_abstract": "Primordial black holes (PBHs) are one of the most important tracers of cosmic history.

Hence, the basic physical mechanisms at play are similar in both cases and can be reduced to the quantization of a parametric oscillator leading to particle creation due to the interaction with a classical source: pair production in vacuum is therefore equivalent to the appearance of a growing mode for the cosmological fluctuations. The only difference lies in the nature of the source: an electric field in the case of the Schwinger effect and the gravitational field in the case of inflationary perturbations. Although, in the laboratory, it is notoriously difficult to produce an electric field such that pairs extracted from the vacuum can be detected, the gravitational field in the early universe can be strong enough to lead to observable effects that ultimately reveal themselves as temperature fluctuations in the Cosmic Microwave Background.

A combination of the derived Planck μT and μE power spectra yields |fNL| ≲ 6800 (95 per cent c.l.) on this highly squeezed bispectrum. This is only ≃ 3 times weaker than the anticipated constraint from Litebird. Furthermore we show that a combination of Litebird with Planck can improve the expected future constraint by $\\simeq 20{{\\%}}$.

The galaxy sample covers approximately 40% of the sky, contains galaxies up to redshift z ∼ 1.4, and is calibrated with the LRG spectra that have been observed for DESI Year 1 (Y1).

While most existing constraints from the halo bias involve auto-correlations of the galaxy distribution, cross-correlations with probes of the matter density provide an alternative channel with fewer systematics. We present the strongest large-scale structure constraint on local primordial non-Gaussianity that uses cross-correlations alone. We use the cosmic infrared background (CIB) consisting of dusty galaxies as a halo tracer and cosmic microwave background (CMB) lensing as a probe of the underlying matter distribution, both from \\textit{Planck} data. Milky Way dust is a key challenge in using the large-scale modes of the CIB. Importantly, the cross-correlation of the CIB with CMB lensing is far less affected by Galactic dust compared to the CIB auto-spectrum, which picks up an additive bias from Galactic dust. We find no evidence for primordial non-Gaussianity and find $-87<f_{\\rm NL}<19$ with a Gaussian $\\sigma(f_{\\rm NL})\\approx 41$, assuming universality of the halo mass function.

This is due to the mathematical isomorphism between the conformal group of certain 3 dimensional slices of de Sitter space and the de Sitter isometry group SO(4,1). In the standard homogeneous isotropic cosmological model in which primordial density perturbations are generated during a long vacuum energy dominated de Sitter phase, the embedding of flat spatial sections in de Sitter space induces a conformal invariant perturbation spectrum and definite prediction for the shape of the non-Gaussian CMB bispectrum. In the case in which the density fluctuations are generated instead on the de Sitter horizon, conformal invariance of the horizon embedding implies a different but also quite definite prediction for the angular correlations of CMB non-Gaussianity on the sky. Each of these forms for the bispectrum is intrinsic to the symmetries of de Sitter space and in that sense, independent of specific model assumptions. Each is different from the predictions of single field slow roll inflation models which rely on the breaking of de Sitter invariance. We propose a quantum origin for the CMB fluctuations in the scalar gravitational sector from the conformal anomaly that could give rise to these non-Gaussianities without a slow roll inflaton field, and argue that conformal invariance also leads to the expectation for the relation n_S-1=n_T between the spectral indices of the scalar and tensor power spectrum.

However, wearing a mask poses challenges for different face recognition tasks and raises concerns about the performance of masked face presentation detection (PAD). The main issues facing the mask face PAD are the wrongly classified bona fide masked faces and the wrongly classified partial attacks (covered by real masks). This work addresses these issues by proposing a method that considers partial attack labels to supervise the PAD model training, as well as regional weighted inference to further improve the PAD performance by varying the focus on different facial areas. Our proposed method is not directly linked to specific network architecture and thus can be directly incorporated into any common or custom-designed network.

Motivated by the recent success of self-supervised learning in computer vision, this paper introduces a self-supervised approach, termed Self-supervised Video Facial Affect Perceiver (SVFAP), to address the dilemma faced by supervised methods. Specifically, SVFAP leverages masked facial video autoencoding to perform self-supervised pre-training on massive unlabeled facial videos. Considering that large spatiotemporal redundancy exists in facial videos, we propose a novel temporal pyramid and spatial bottleneck Transformer as the encoder of SVFAP, which not only largely reduces computational costs but also achieves excellent performance. To verify the effectiveness of our method, we conduct experiments on nine datasets spanning three downstream tasks, including dynamic facial expression recognition, dimensional emotion recognition, and personality recognition. Comprehensive results demonstrate that SVFAP can learn powerful affect-related representations via large-scale self-supervised pre-training and it significantly outperforms previous state-of-the-art methods on all datasets.

Understanding FER deficits in BD is crucial for tailoring interventions and improving treatment outcomes. This systematic review and meta-analysis aims to evaluate FER differences among individuals with BD, unaffected first-degree relatives (FDRs), and healthy controls (HCs), exploring predictors related to patient and study characteristics. Methods We systematically searched PubMed/MEDLINE, Scopus, EMBASE, and PsycINFO databases from inception to March 28, 2024. Random-effects meta-analyses were conducted to explore differences in accuracy and reaction time during FER identification and discrimination tasks. Results A total of 100 studies were included, comprising 4920 individuals with BD (females = 56%, mean age = 34.1 ± 9.1), 676 FDRs (females = 55%, mean age = 36.1 ± 12), and 4909 HCs (females = 53.2%, mean age = 32.5 ± 9.5). Compared to HCs, adults with BD exhibited significantly lower accuracy (SMD = −0.47; 95% CIs = −0.56, −0.38) and higher reaction time (SMD = 0.57; 95%CIs = 0.33, 0.81) during facial emotion identification tasks. During facial emotion discrimination tasks, adults with BD had significantly lower accuracy than HCs (SMD = −0.59; 95%CIs = −0.78, −0.4), but similar speed. No significant differences were observed between BD and FDRs. Meta-regressions identified several predictors of FER performance, including manic symptom severity, stimulus duration, and presence of practice before task.

The current study tests whether intrinsic brain organization predicts valence bias among 119 children and adolescents (6 to 17 years).

Disrupting connectivity revealed additional intra-system (e.g. fronto-parietal) and inter-system (e.g. amygdala to cingulo-opercular) connectivity important for prediction.

Our goal was to put in perspective three different types of affective states (induced affective states, more sustained mood states and affective traits such as depression and anxiety) and investigate how they may interact and influence emotion perception. Here, we hypothesized that absorption into positive and negative emotional episodes generate sustained affective states that outlast the episode period and bias the interpretation of facial expressions in a perceptual decision-making task. We also investigated how such effects are influenced by more sustained mood states and by individual affect traits (depression and anxiety) and whether they interact. Transient emotional states were induced using movie-clips, after which participants performed a forced-choice emotion classification task with morphed facial expressions ranging from fear to happiness. Using a psychometric approach, we show that negative (vs. neutral) clips increased participants’ propensity to classify ambiguous faces as fearful during several minutes. In contrast, positive movies biased classification toward happiness only for those clips perceived as most absorbing.

Cognitive control influences on unconscious word and object processing are well documented, but corresponding findings in the field of face processing are heterogeneous. The present study therefore investigated, whether subliminal face priming in a gender categorization task is susceptible to feature-specific attention. Participants performed a gender decision task by orthogonally varying gender congruency (prime-target: same vs. different gender) and emotion congruency (prime-target: same vs. different emotional facial expression) using a masked priming paradigm. Perceptual vs. emotional induction tasks, performed prior to prime presentation, served to activate corresponding attentional task sets. Subliminal gender priming (faster reactions to gender-congruent primes) differed as a function of induction task and emotional congruency. Following perceptual induction, gender priming was only obtained in the emotionally congruent condition, whereas following emotional induction gender priming was observed independently of emotional congruency. In line with the classical notion of automaticity, subliminal gender priming did not depend on a specific attentional focus. However, attention to shape facilitated subliminal processing of task-irrelevant emotional facial expressions. Most likely, mutual facilitation of emotionally congruent prime and target representations enhanced gender priming compared with emotionally incongruent pairings.", + "summary_grounded_pdf": false, + "verification_log": { + "final_url": "https://www.degruyterbrill.com:443/document/doi/10.1515/psych-2020-0006/html", + "http_status": 200, + "pdf_sample_score": null, + "query_relevance_score": 0.5, + "redirect_chain": [ + "https://doi.org/10.1515/psych-2020-0006", + "https://www.degruyter.com/document/doi/10.1515/psych-2020-0006/html" + ], + "summary_grounding_score": 1.0, + "title_token_overlap_score": 1.0, + "url_resolves": true, + "verified_at": "2026-05-10T18:35:58Z" + } + }, + { + "bibliographic_info": { + "authors": [ + "M.

However, evidence linking competitive trait anxiety to specific attentional-bias components in adolescent tennis players remains limited. This study examined group characteristics of competitive trait anxiety and tested whether athletes with different anxiety levels show distinct attentional-bias patterns toward emotional faces. Methods A total of 120 adolescent tennis players (aged 14–18 years) who participated in the 2020 Hunan Provincial Youth Tennis Championship completed the Pre-competition Emotion Scale–Trait (PES-T). Athletes scoring in the top and bottom 20% were selected to form a high-anxiety group (n = 24) and a low-anxiety group (n = 24). Using positive, negative, and neutral faces selected from the Chinese Affective Face Picture System, participants completed a modified dot-probe task. Indices of attentional orienting and difficulty disengaging from emotional cues were computed. Correlation and regression analyses were conducted between anxiety dimensions and attentional-bias indices. Results (1) Female athletes reported significantly higher competitive trait anxiety than males. (2) Competitive trait anxiety tended to decrease with greater age, longer training experience, and higher sport level. (3) The high-anxiety group showed a pronounced difficulty disengaging from negative faces, indicating a negative attentional bias; the low-anxiety group showed a significant bias toward positive faces.(4)Within the high-anxiety group, social expectation anxiety was positively associated with, and significantly predicted, difficulty disengaging from negative cues. Conclusion Competitive trait anxiety in adolescent tennis players is shaped by gender and training experience and may influence cognitive resource allocation by biasing attention to emotional information—especially by prolonging engagement with negative cues. Social expectation anxiety appears to be a key risk factor for negative disengagement bias.

By sequencing oral swabs, we were able to identify bacterial and fungal populations in the dogs’ mouths. The most common bacterial species present, Phorphorymonas spp. is known to produce factors that cause neurodegeneration. Moreover, Leptotrichia, another bacterial species present, correlated to cognition scores in these dogs. We conclude that this small exploratory study shows the importance of defining the oral microbiota in aged dogs with a view to understanding potential therapeutic targets. Larger prospective studies should be undertaken as a priority. Abstract Aged companion dogs have a high prevalence of periodontal disease and canine cognitive dysfunction syndrome (CCDS) and the two disorders are correlated. Similarly, periodontal disease and Alzheimer’s Disease are correlated in people. However, little is known about the oral microbiota of aging dogs. The goal of this project was to characterize the longitudinal changes in oral microbiota in aged dogs. Oral swabs were taken from ten senior client-owned dogs on 2–3 occasions spanning 24 months and they underwent whole genome shotgun (WGS) sequencing. Cognitive status was established at each sampling time. A statistically significant increase in alpha diversity for bacterial and fungal species was observed between the first and last study visits. Bacteroidetes and proteobacteria were the most abundant bacterial phyla. Porphyromonas gulae was the most abundant bacterial species (11.6% of total reads). The species Lactobacillus gasseri had a statistically significant increase in relative abundance with age whereas Leptotrichia sp. oral taxon 212 had a statistically significant positive longitudinal association with cognition score. There is an increased fungal and bacterial alpha diversity in aging dogs over time and nearly universal oral dysbiosis. The role of the oral microbiota, particularly Leptotrichia and P. gulae and P. gingivalis, in aging and CCDS warrants further investigation.", - "claimed_authors": [ - "J. Anderson", - "Holly H.

Recent advances in experimental approaches and theory provide a broader perspective on the role of the thalamus in cognitively-relevant cortical computations, and suggest that only a subset of thalamic circuit motifs fit the relay description. Here, we discuss this perspective and highlight the potential role for the thalamus -- and specifically mediodorsal (MD) nucleus -- in dynamic selection of cortical representations through a combination of intrinsic thalamic computations and output signals that change cortical network functional parameters. We suggest that through the contextual modulation of cortical computation, thalamus and cortex jointly optimize the information/cost tradeoff in an emergent fashion.

The index is calculated by scoring intake adequacy of key food groups (e.g. fruits, vegetables, whole grains) and moderation of harmful components (e.g. sodium, added sugars). This study evaluates i) the predictive capacity of the HEI scores and its components with cognitive decline, ii) the moderating role of socioeconomic status in the diet-cognition relationship. We used dietary, socioeconomic, and cognitive assessment data from NHANES 2011-2012. Logistic and probit regression models were used to identify associations by adjusting for covariates. Probit model showed higher whole fruit scores associated with improved word recall, delayed recall, and increased likelihood of above-average cognitive performance. Higher scores for whole fruits, vegetables, grains, and seafood components were associated with improved animal-fluency performance, whereas higher whole grain scores increased the probability of above-average performance, and higher fatty acid component scores reduced it. Higher overall HEI scores, along with higher scores for whole fruits, whole grains, and seafood components, also positively associated with improved performance on digit-symbol-substitution-tests. Additionally, higher whole fruit and protein component scores increased the likelihood of individuals scoring above average in digit symbol scores. Furthermore, when stratified by socioeconomic status, higher-HEI scores increased the likelihood of above-average performance in animal-fluency and digit-symbol-tests for individuals below 185% of the poverty line. In conclusion, higher-HEI scores—particularly for whole fruits, grains, seafood, and protein components—are associated with enhanced cognitive performance, with individuals below 185% of the poverty threshold showing stronger association.", - "claimed_authors": [ - "Samitinjaya Dhakal", - "Oscar Sarasty" - ], - "claimed_title": "Impact Of Healthy Eating Index, Component-specific Effects, & Socioeconomic Status On Cognition In Older Adults", - "claimed_venue": "Innovation in aging", - "claimed_year": 2025, - "primary_pointer": "https://doi.org/10.1093/geroni/igaf122.2433" - }, - "details": "query-relevance 0.182 < 0.3 (query='How does gut microbiome taxonomic composition relate to cognitive performance in', candidate_title='Impact Of Healthy Eating Index, Component-specific Effects, & Socioeconomic Status On Cognition In Older Adults')", - "failed_at": "2026-05-07T17:22:43Z", - "reason": "query_irrelevant" - }, - { - "candidate": { - "backend": "semantic_scholar", - "claimed_abstract": "Background Inactivity is a significant contributor to non-communicable diseases. In Lebanon, the World Health Organization reported a rising prevalence of physical inactivity among adults. Various studies highlight the benefits of physical activity (PA) on health, influenced by sociodemographic factors, gender, age, and diet. This study aims to examine PA correlates in Lebanese adults, focusing on blood biomarkers. Methods This cross-sectional study included 296 adults aged ≥18 years. Participants completed a brief sociodemographic and food frequency questionnaire, underwent anthropometric measurements, and provided fasting blood samples. PA was measured using the International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ) short form and was divided into two categories: low PA corresponding to any walking activity, and moderate to vigorous PA for activities requiring physical effort. Descriptive statistics were computed for sociodemographic characteristics, BMI, waist circumference, energy intake, PA levels, and blood biomarkers. Logistic regressions were used to assess PA and blood biomarkers associations, adjusted for relevant covariates. Results Gender and marital status were associated with moderate to vigorous PA levels. No association was found between PA levels, BMI, waist circumference, diet, or blood biomarkers. Multivariate binary logistic regression analyses showed that females (OR=1.96, 95% CI: 1.16–3.31) and those with LDL moderate risk (OR=1.90, 95% CI: 1.02–3.66), and high risk (OR=2.44, 95% CI: 1.08–5.55), were more likely to show moderate-to-high PA levels. Conclusion PA was positively associated with gender and disease risk, particularly LDL, a biomarker known to jeopardize cardiovascular health.

Methods This was a cross-sectional study using data obtained from the NHANES database. The following covariates were assessed: age, sex, race/ethnicity, educational level, marital status, smoking status, physical activity, alcohol use, history of diabetes, and hypertension. Socioeconomic status was categorized according to poverty-income ratio (PIR). Food frequency questionnaires were used to calculate previously validated plant-based diet index (PDI) and healthful plant-based diet index (hPDI). Multivariable-adjusted logistic regression was performed to determine the association between PIR, clinical, demographic, and plant-based diet indices. Results A total of 5037 participants were in the final analytic sample. Median age of participants was 51 ± 18.5 years. Overall PDI and hPDI were 50 [46–54] and 52 [47–57], respectively. Median PDI index was significantly different among PIR groups (PDI, p = 0.018; hPDI, p < 0.001). On multivariable analysis, participants in the poorest socioeconomic group (PIR ≤ 130%) were more likely to have lower consumption of a healthful PBD (hPDI).

These two R packages enable covariate-adjusted analyses for continuous, discrete, and time-to-event outcomes that follow best practices. For continuous and discrete outcomes, the functions in the RobinCar Family facilitate traditional forms of covariate adjustment such as ANCOVA as well as more recent approaches like ANHECOVA, G-computation with generalized linear models and machine learning models, and adjustment for a super-covariate (as in PROCOVA(TM)). Functions for time-to-event outcomes implement the covariate-adjusted log-rank test, the stratified covariate-adjusted log-rank test, and the marginal covariate-adjusted hazard ratio. The RobinCar Family is supported by the ASA Biopharmaceutical Section Covariate Adjustment Scientific Working Group.\n Results: We provide an accessible overview of the covariate-adjusted statistical methods, and describe how they are implemented in RobinCar and RobinCar2.

Key metabolites such as succinate and short-chain fatty acids signal through the autonomic nervous system and can cross the blood-brain barrier, impacting central nervous system functions. Objective The aim is to examine the role of the gut microbiota in compensating for metabolic deficiencies in AD. By analyzing wild-type (WT) and APP/PS1 mice, the study investigates how the microbiome affects key metabolic processes and whether it can slow AD progression. Methods High-throughput sequencing data from the gut microbiomes of APP/PS1 transgenic AD model mice and age-matched WT C57BL/6 male mice were analyzed for microbial and metabolite profiles. Results Alpha and beta diversity analyses showed differences in microbial composition between groups. Partial least squares discriminant analysis and Anosim confirmed distinct microbiome profiles in WT and APP/PS1 mice. At the genus level, Vescimonas was more abundant in WT mice, while Odoribacter, Lacrimispora, Helicobacter, Bacteroides, and Alloprevotella were more prevalent in APP/PS1 mice. Conclusions While taxonomic differences did not directly link specific microorganisms to AD, functional analysis identified key metabolites—acetyl-CoA, glucose, succinate, lipids, choline, and acetylcholine—that may alleviate energy deficits and synaptic dysfunction.

Effective prevention and treatment interventions are unavailable due to a poor understanding of aging biology. Multiple emerging evidence indicates that the gut microbiome is linked with age-related disorders; however, their clinical importance in differentiating and predicting the risk of cognitive decline or dementia is largely elusive. Utilizing samples and data of a large, multi-site clinical study across the state of Florida called Microbiome in aging Gut and Brain (MiaGB) Consortium, our whole genome microbiome sequencing revealed that the viral and archaeal population was significantly reduced in the gut of older adults with dementia (n=8) compared to those with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) (n=25) and normal cognition (n=59). Whereas the fungi were exclusively detected in the controls only. Alpha diversity of the participants with MCI and dementia was lower than the cognitively healthy controls. The abundance of Actinobacteria and Verrucomicrobia phyla was higher, and Firmicutes phylum was lower in the participants with dementia. Bacteriophages Lactobacillus prophage Lj771 and Microbacterium phage Min1 were exclusively detected in the gut of the participants with dementia. The study also identifies key metabolic pathways altered in the controls versus the cognitive impairment state.

Yoga may support cognitive and emotional health while modulating gut microbiota, but integrative clinical evidence is limited. Objective To evaluate the effects of a 12-week yoga intervention on cognition, depressive symptoms, and gut microbial diversity, composition, and function in Indian patients with mild AD. Methods In this hospital-based case-control study, 16 AD patients and 17 cognitively healthy controls (HCs) were recruited at AIIMS, New Delhi. AD diagnosis followed NIA-AA criteria, supported by Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) and Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9) assessments. AD participants underwent 60-min supervised yoga sessions daily for 12 weeks. Cognitive performance, depressive symptoms, and stool microbiota were assessed pre- and post-intervention. Metagenomic sequencing enabled taxonomic and functional profiling, with alpha diversity, beta diversity (Bray-Curtis distance), and differential abundance analyses performed using standard bioinformatics tools. Results Yoga was associated with improved cognition (MoCA: 22.33 ± 2.34 → 25.44 ± 2.01; p = 0.001) and reduced depressive symptoms (PHQ-9: 5.78 ± 3.11 → 2.22 ± 1.71; p = 0.007). Alpha diversity remained stable, while beta diversity shifted post-yoga AD samples toward the HC cluster. Beneficial taxa (Faecalibacterium prausnitzii, Roseburia intestinalis, Bifidobacterium, Akkermansia) increased, whereas pro-inflammatory taxa (Collinsella aerofaciens, Klebsiella spp.) decreased. Functional analysis showed partial recovery of metabolic and short-chain fatty acid pathways.

We analyzed fecal samples from 119 individuals with MCI and 320 cognitively normal controls enrolled in the Taiwan Precision Medicine Initiative on Cognitive Impairment and Dementia cohort. Shotgun metagenomic sequencing was conducted with taxonomic profiling using MetaPhlAn4. Amyloid burden and plasma pTau181 were quantified via PET imaging and Simoa assays, respectively, while APOE genotyping was performed using TaqMan assays. Microbial diversity, differential abundance analysis, and correlation mapping with neuropsychological and neuroimaging measures were conducted to identify gut microbiota species signatures associated with MCI and AD biomarkers. We identified 59 key microbial species linked to MCI and AD biomarkers. Notably, species within the same genera, such as Bacteroides and Ruminococcus, showed opposing effects, while Akkermansia muciniphila correlated with reduced amyloid burden, suggesting a protective role.

To validate this approach, we computed and analyzed electron density distributions of the π-stacked complexes and correlated the QSPR predictions with the reference values of the transition energies obtained using the high-level ab initio quantum chemistry methods.

Herein, we present a geometric deep learning framework for predicting gas- and liquid-phase properties based on novel quantum chemical datasets comprising 124,000 molecules. Our findings reveal that the necessity for quantum-chemical information in deep learning models varies significantly depending on the modeled physicochemical property. Specifically, our top-performing geometric model meets the most stringent criteria for “chemically accurate” thermochemistry predictions. We also show that by carefully selecting the appropriate model featurization and evaluating prediction uncertainties, the reliability of the predictions can be strongly enhanced. These insights represent a crucial step towards establishing deep learning as the standard property prediction workflow in both industry and academia.

This constraint often leads to inferior predictive performance compared to standard softmax models, making it challenging to extend them to many large-scale datasets. To unveil the real cause of this undesired behavior, we theoretically investigate evidential models and identify a fundamental limitation that explains the inferior performance: existing evidential activation functions create zero evidence regions, which prevent the model to learn from training samples falling into such regions. A deeper analysis of evidential activation functions based on our theoretical underpinning inspires the design of a novel regularizer that effectively alleviates this fundamental limitation.

Hence, incorporating an equivariant GNN model will serve as a viable substitute for predictions in extensive AIMD simulations of homogeneous or symmetrically periodic low-dimensional materials.", - "summary_grounded_pdf": false, - "verification_log": { - "final_url": "https://pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/acs.jpclett.5c00217", - "http_status": 403, - "pdf_sample_score": null, - "query_relevance_score": 0.4286, - "redirect_chain": [ - "https://doi.org/10.1021/acs.jpclett.5c00217" - ], - "summary_grounding_score": 1.0, - "title_token_overlap_score": 1.0, - "url_resolves": true, - "verified_at": "2026-05-08T02:23:54Z" - } - }, - { - "bibliographic_info": { - "authors": [ - "J.

From the gravitational-wave signal, the source was initially localized to a sky region of 31 deg$^2$ at a luminosity distance of $40^{+8}_{-8}$ Mpc and with component masses consistent with neutron stars. The component masses were later measured to be in the range 0.86 to 2.26 Msun.

Early ultraviolet observations revealed a blue transient that faded within 48 hours. Optical and infrared observations showed a redward evolution over $\\sim$10 days.

For example, it has been shown that over 1% of tokens generated unprompted by an LLM are part of sequences in the training data. However, current studies mainly focus on the exact memorization behaviors. In this paper, we propose to evaluate how many generated texts have near-duplicates (e.g., only differ by a couple of tokens out of 100) in the training corpus. A major challenge of conducting this evaluation is the huge computation cost incurred by near-duplicate sequence searches. This is because modern LLMs are trained on larger and larger corpora with up to 1 trillion tokens. What's worse is that the number of sequences in a text is quadratic to the text length. To address this issue, we develop an efficient and scalable near-duplicate sequence search algorithm in this paper. It can find (almost) all the near-duplicate sequences of the query sequence in a large corpus with guarantees. Specifically, the algorithm generates and groups the min-hash values of all the sequences with at least t tokens (as very short near-duplicates are often irrelevant noise) in the corpus in linear time to the corpus size. We formally prove that only 2 n+1/t+1 -1 min-hash values are generated for a text with n tokens in expectation. Thus the index time and size are reasonable.

We refer to such subwords as near duplicates. In this paper, we study the impact of near duplicate subwords on LM training efficiency. First, we design an experiment that gives us an upper bound to how much we should expect a model to improve if we could perfectly generalise across near duplicates. We do this by duplicating each subword in our LM's vocabulary, creating perfectly equivalent classes of subwords. Experimentally, we find that LMs need roughly 17% more data when trained in a fully duplicated setting.

The 3-dimensional case is practically important for justifying the novelty of solid crystalline materials (periodic crystals) and for patenting medical drugs in a solid tablet form. Past descriptors based on finite subsets fail when a unit cell of a periodic pattern discontinuously changes under almost any perturbation of atoms, which is inevitable due to noise and atomic vibrations. The major problem is not only to find complete invariants (descriptors with no false negatives and no false positives for all periodic patterns) but to design efficient algorithms for distance metrics on these invariants that should continuously behave under noise. The proposed continuous metrics solve this problem in any Euclidean dimension and are algorithmically approximated with small error factors in times that are explicitly bounded in the size and complexity of a given pattern.

The increasing complexity of these languages demands effective tools and resources for learning and troubleshooting. As a result, forums such as Stack Overflow (SO) have become crucial for addressing technical issues that arise during program execution, especially for novice programmers. Although discussions on SO are common, there hasn't been a clear description of the question types and topics for the three main programming languages, i.e., C, Java, and Python. This gap is problematic as it limits the ability of educators, platform designers, and developers to effectively address the specific needs of users. Without such insights, novice programmers may struggle to find relevant guidance, potentially hindering their learning and slowing the adoption of best practices. To fill this gap, we conducted a qualitative and quantitative study on these three language-related discussions shared on SO. By utilizing a dataset of 4,499,718 questions extracted from SOTorrent, we applied a manual labeling method to classify questions into categories such as “How,” “What,” and “Why.” Furthermore, we implemented Latent Dirichlet Allocation (LDA) for topic modeling to understand the prevalent discussion topics. The results show that “How” questions dominate across all languages, particularly in Python (60.94%), reflecting a high demand for practical implementation guidance. Analysis of discussion topics indicates that C is centered on system programming and low-level operations, while Java discusses more on application development and object-oriented programming. In contrast, Python focuses more on data handling and structures. These insights suggest that while practical support is necessary for learners, a deeper understanding of programming concepts and the need for customized instructional resources to support developers are important.

We evaluate these attacks on attention-based and autoencoder architectures in two scenarios: models that are trained from scratch, and fine-tuned models where the adversary has access to the initial weights. Our experimental results demonstrate that the proposed membership attack retrieves a significant portion of the training data with a tpr@top25% score significantly higher than a naive attack baseline.

However, the widespread use of sensitive image data and the high memorization capacity of deep learning present significant privacy risks. Now, a simple Google search can yield numerous images of a person, and the knowledge that a specific patient’s record was utilized for training a specific model associated with a disease may reveal the patient’s ailment, potentially leading to membership privacy leakage and other advanced attacks in the future. Furthermore, these unprotected models may also suffer from poor generalization due to this overfitting to train data. Previous state-of-the-art methods like differential privacy (DP) and regularizer-based defenses compromised functionality, i.e., task accuracy, to preserve privacy. Such an imbalanced trade-off raises concerns about the practicability of such defenses. Other existing knowledge-transfer-based methods either reuse private data or require more public data, which could compromise privacy and may not be viable in certain domains. To address these challenges, where membership privacy is of utmost importance and utility cannot be compromised, we propose a novel collaborative distillation approach that transfers the private model’s knowledge based on a minimal amount of distilled synthetic data, leading to a compact private model in an end-to-end fashion. Empirically, our proposed method guarantees superior performance compared to most advanced models currently in use, increasing utility by almost 8%, 34%, and 6% for CIFAR-10, CIFAR-100, and MNIST, respectively.

Inflationary observables, including the spectral index ns , the tensor-to-scalar ratio r, and the running αs , are computed within the single-field EFT approach, which is applicable even in the presence of a heavy field with large mixing.

A larger Hubble constant, which can be compatible with the recent HST estimate, and a large fraction of baryon density in galaxy clusters make them current favorites. Early galaxy formation also is considered as a welcome feature of these models But early galaxy formation implies that fluctuations on few megaparsec scales spent more time in the nonlinearregime, as compared with standard Cold Dark Matter (CDM) or Cold+Hot Dark Matter models. This results in excessive clustering on small scales. We show that a typical LCDM model with $H_0=70$ km/s/Mpc, $Ω_0=0.3$ normalized to COBE on large scales and compatible with the number-density of galaxy clusters, predicts a power spectrum of galaxy clustering in real space which is too high: {\\it at least} twice larger than CfA estimates (Park \\etal 1994) and 3 times larger than APM estimates (Baugh \\& Efstathiou 1994) for wavenumbers $k=(0.4-1)h/{\\rm Mpc}$. This conclusion holds if we assume either that galaxies trace the dark matter ($σ_8\\approx 1.1$ for this model) or just that a region with higher density produces more galaxies than a region with lower density. The only way to reconcile the model with the observed power spectrum is to assume that regions with high dark matter density produce fewer galaxies than regions with low density. Theoretically this is possible, but it seems very unlikely: X-ray emission from groups and clusters indicates that places with a large density of dark matter produce a large number of galaxies.

Hence, the basic physical mechanisms at play are similar in both cases and can be reduced to the quantization of a parametric oscillator leading to particle creation due to the interaction with a classical source: pair production in vacuum is therefore equivalent to the appearance of a growing mode for the cosmological fluctuations. The only difference lies in the nature of the source: an electric field in the case of the Schwinger effect and the gravitational field in the case of inflationary perturbations. Although, in the laboratory, it is notoriously difficult to produce an electric field such that pairs extracted from the vacuum can be detected, the gravitational field in the early universe can be strong enough to lead to observable effects that ultimately reveal themselves as temperature fluctuations in the Cosmic Microwave Background.

Nevertheless, all the existing proposals and analyses are only valid in two spatial dimensions. In this work, we propose the idea of using hedgehog topological defects to characterize the plasticity of 3D glasses and to geometrically predict the location of their soft spots. We corroborate our proposal by simulating a Kremer-Grest 3D polymer glass, and by using both the normal mode eigenvector field and the displacement field around large plastic events. Contrary to the 2D case, the sign of the topological charge defined from the eigenvector field is ambiguous and the geometry of the topological defects, whether radial or hyperbolic, plays a fundamental role in 3D. In fact, we find that the topological hedgehog defects relevant for plasticity are those exhibiting hyperbolic geometry, resembling the saddle-point structure of 2D topological defects with negative winding number (anti-vortices).

Through cross-correlations between CMB and μ-distortion anisotropies, one can therefore shed light on the aforementioned inflation models.

We compare estimates obtained from separable template-fitting, binned, and modal bispectrum estimators, finding consistent values for the local, equilateral, and orthogonal bispectrum amplitudes. Our combined temperature and polarization analysis produces the following results: f_NL^local = -0.9 +\\- 5.1; f_NL^equil = -26 +\\- 47; and f_NL^ortho = - 38 +\\- 24 (68%CL, statistical). These results include the low-multipole (4 <= l < 40) polarization data, not included in our previous analysis, pass an extensive battery of tests, and are stable with respect to our 2015 measurements. Polarization bispectra display a significant improvement in robustness; they can now be used independently to set NG constraints. We consider a large number of additional cases, e.g. scale-dependent feature and resonance bispectra, isocurvature primordial NG, and parity-breaking models, where we also place tight constraints but do not detect any signal. The non-primordial lensing bispectrum is detected with an improved significance compared to 2015, excluding the null hypothesis at 3.5 sigma. We present model-independent reconstructions and analyses of the CMB bispectrum. Our final constraint on the local trispectrum shape is g_NLl^local = (-5.8 +\\-6.5) x 10^4 (68%CL, statistical), while constraints for other trispectra are also determined. We constrain the parameter space of different early-Universe scenarios, including general single-field models of inflation, multi-field and axion field parity-breaking models. Our results provide a high-precision test for structure-formation scenarios, in complete agreement with the basic picture of the LambdaCDM cosmology regarding the statistics of the initial conditions (abridged).", - "summary_grounded_pdf": false, - "verification_log": { - "final_url": "https://arxiv.org/abs/1905.05697", - "http_status": 200, - "pdf_sample_score": null, - "query_relevance_score": 0.3684, - "redirect_chain": [], - "summary_grounding_score": 1.0, - "title_token_overlap_score": 1.0, - "url_resolves": true, - "verified_at": "2026-05-07T18:34:07Z" - } - } - ] - }, - "target_n": 5, - "term_normalized": "to what extent do non-gaussian signatures in the cosmic microwave background temperature anisotropies deviate from the inflationary lcdm baseline, and can these deviations constrain the formation energy of cosmic topological defects", - "ttls": { - "arxiv": 2592000, - "doi_bib": 7776000, - "http_head": 604800 - } -} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/state/librarian-cache/6910356ee4cf256a5ac18b6917b4d8723d57414b2362a31dd2af1d0aaf9cf5b6.json b/state/librarian-cache/6910356ee4cf256a5ac18b6917b4d8723d57414b2362a31dd2af1d0aaf9cf5b6.json new file mode 100644 index 00000000..27eb5cb9 --- /dev/null +++ b/state/librarian-cache/6910356ee4cf256a5ac18b6917b4d8723d57414b2362a31dd2af1d0aaf9cf5b6.json @@ -0,0 +1,634 @@ +{ + "fetched_at": "2026-05-10T15:54:35Z", + "field": "neuroscience", + "prompt_version": "1.5.0", + "result": { + "cache_status": "miss", + "context": { + "field": "neuroscience", + "idea_body_excerpt": "---\nfield: neuroscience\nsubmitter: google.gemma-3-27b-it\n---\n\n# Investigating the Impact of Simulated Sensory Deprivation on Resting-State Brain Network Dynamics\n\n**Field**: neuroscience\n\n## Research question\n\nHow does the intrinsic organization of human brain functional networks change when sensory input is experimentally reduced, and does this reorganization manifest as altered modularity and global efficiency in resting-state fMRI?\n\n## Motivation\n\nUnderstanding how the brain reorganizes in the absence of external input could inform treatments for sensory processing disorders and provide insights into the brain's intrinsic activity patterns.

Bridging this gap is essential to link neural activity with semantic cognition and to develop cross-modal brain representations. To this end, we present fMRI-LM, a foundational model that bridges functional MRI (fMRI) and language through a three-stage framework. In Stage 1, we learn a neural tokenizer that maps fMRI into discrete tokens embedded in a language-consistent space. In Stage 2, a pretrained LLM is adapted to jointly model fMRI tokens and text, treating brain activity as a sequence that can be temporally predicted and linguistically described. To overcome the lack of natural fMRI-text pairs, we construct a large descriptive corpus that translates diverse imaging-based features into structured textual descriptors, capturing the low-level organization of fMRI signals. In Stage 3, we perform multi-task, multi-paradigm instruction tuning to endow fMRI-LM with high-level semantic understanding, supporting diverse downstream applications.

The proposed method was validated in three independent differential analysis experiments: male–female gender difference analysis, analysis of abnormality in patients with autism spectrum disorders (ASD), and individual difference analysis. Results The proposed method yielded results consistent with previous relevant studies and revealed some innovative findings. For instance, the dynamic topological characteristics of specific white matter regions effectively reflected individual differences. The increased abnormality in internal functional connectivity within the basal ganglia may be a contributing factor to the occurrence of repetitive or restrictive behaviors in ASD patients. Conclusion The proposed methodology provides an efficacious approach for constructing whole-brain spatio-temporal multilayer FCNs and conducting analysis of their dynamic topological structures. The dynamic topological characteristics of spatio-temporal multilayer FCNs may offer new insights into physiological variations and pathological abnormalities in neuroscience.", + "claimed_authors": [ + "Jianhui Zheng", + "Yuhao Cheng", + "Xi Wu", + "Xiaojie Li", + "Ying Fu", + "Zhipeng Yang" + ], + "claimed_title": "Rich-club organization of whole-brain spatio-temporal multilayer functional connectivity networks", + "claimed_venue": "Frontiers in Neuroscience", + "claimed_year": 2024, + "primary_pointer": "https://doi.org/10.3389/fnins.2024.1405734" + }, + "details": "query-relevance 0.200 < 0.3 (query='How does the intrinsic organization of human brain functional networks change wh', candidate_title='Rich-club organization of whole-brain spatio-temporal multilayer functional connectivity networks')", + "failed_at": "2026-05-10T15:44:53Z", + "reason": "query_irrelevant" + }, + { + "candidate": { + "backend": "arxiv", + "claimed_abstract": "Immersive virtual reality (VR) emerges as a promising research and clinical tool.

Rich-clubness defines the extent to which a network displays a topological organization characterized by the presence of a node rich-club. It is crucial for the investigation of internal organization and function of networks arising in systems of disparate fields such as transportation, social, communication and neuroscience. Different methods have been proposed for assessing the rich-clubness and various null-models have been adopted for performing statistical tests. However, a procedure that assigns a unique value of rich-clubness significance to a given network is still missing. Our solution to this problem grows on the basis of three new pillars. We introduce: i) a null-model characterized by a lower rich-club coefficient; ii) a fair strategy to normalize the level of rich-clubness of a network in respect to the null-model; iii) a statistical test that, exploiting the maximum deviation of the normalized rich-club coefficient attributes a unique p-value of rich-clubness to a given network. In conclusion, this study proposes the first attempt to quantify, using a unique measure, whether a network presents a significant rich-club topological organization.

Results: A negative correlation was found between average contralateral task-induced CMFC and speech outcomes, particularly in links from the angular gyrus (AG), both one month and one year post-activation.

However, most of recent studies focus on cross-modal contrastive learning (CMCL) to promote image-text alignment by pulling embeddings of positive sample pairs together while pushing those of negative pairs apart, which ignores the natural asymmetry property between different modalities and requires large-scale image-text corpus to achieve arduous progress. To mitigate this predicament, we propose CMAL, a Cross-Modal Associative Learning framework with anchor points detection and cross-modal associative learning for VLP. Specifically, we first respectively embed visual objects and textual tokens into separate hypersphere spaces to learn intra-modal hidden features, and then design a cross-modal associative prompt layer to perform anchor point masking and swap feature filling for constructing a hybrid cross-modal associative prompt. Afterwards, we exploit a unified semantic encoder to learn their cross-modal interactive features for context adaptation. Finally, we design an associative mapping classification layer to learn potential associative mappings between modalities at anchor points, within which we develop a fresh self-supervised associative mapping classification task to boost CMAL's performance. Experimental results verify the effectiveness of CMAL, showing that it achieves competitive performance against previous CMCL-based methods on four common downstream vision-and-language tasks, with significantly fewer corpus.

We used a customized template to extract networks with more than 1800 regional nodes, and we applied a fast algorithm to identify nested modular structure at several hierarchical levels. We used mutual information, 0 < I < 1, to estimate the similarity of community structure of networks in different subjects, and to identify the individual network that is most representative of the group. Results show that human brain functional networks have a hierarchical modular organization with a fair degree of similarity between subjects, I=0.63. The largest 5 modules at the highest level of the hierarchy were medial occipital, lateral occipital, central, parieto-frontal and fronto-temporal systems; occipital modules demonstrated less sub-modular organization than modules comprising regions of multimodal association cortex. Connector nodes and hubs, with a key role in inter-modular connectivity, were also concentrated in association cortical areas.

It is known that bilateral deafness induces cross-modal brain plasticity within visual cortical areas. Here we investigate whether similar cross-modal plasticity is observed in adult-onset SSD. In SSD patients (n = 29) and matched controls (n = 29) we estimated voxel level resting-state power and functional connectivity in the alpha band (8-12 Hz) from magnetoencephalography (MEG) data. We examined both global functional connectivity (mean functional connectivity of each voxel with the rest of the brain), and seeded functional connectivity of primary auditory cortices (A1), primary visual cortices (V1) and posterior cingulate cortex (PCC) of the default mode network (DMN). Power reduction was observed in left auditory cortex. Global functional connectivity showed reduction in frontal cortices and enhancement in visual cortex. Seeded functional connectivity of auditory cortices showed reduction in temporal, frontal and occipital regions, and enhancement in parietal cortex. Interestingly, seeded functional connectivity of visual cortices showed enhancement in visual cortices, inferior parietal lobe, post-central gyrus, and the precuneus, and reduction in auditory cortex. Seeded functional connectivity of PCC showed reduction in frontal cortical regions that are part of the DMN, attention, and working memory networks. Adult-onset SSD exhibited widespread cross-modal brain plasticity involving alterations in auditory, visual, attention, working memory and default mode networks.", + "summary_grounded_pdf": false, + "verification_log": { + "final_url": "https://linkinghub.elsevier.com/retrieve/pii/S105381191930967X", + "http_status": 200, + "pdf_sample_score": null, + "query_relevance_score": 0.3, + "redirect_chain": [ + "https://doi.org/10.1016/j.neuroimage.2019.116376" + ], + "summary_grounding_score": 1.0, + "title_token_overlap_score": 1.0, + "url_resolves": true, + "verified_at": "2026-05-10T15:44:56Z" + } + } + ] + }, + "target_n": 5, + "term_normalized": "how does the intrinsic organization of human brain functional networks change when sensory input is experimentally reduced, and does this reorganization manifest as altered modularity and global efficiency in resting-state fmri", + "ttls": { + "arxiv": 2592000, + "doi_bib": 7776000, + "http_head": 604800 + } +} \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/state/librarian-cache/884f705b1747af9cae9c6d17759fb8d18d9aef3af938e60efe013e8cd410c058.json b/state/librarian-cache/884f705b1747af9cae9c6d17759fb8d18d9aef3af938e60efe013e8cd410c058.json deleted file mode 100644 index 4d104213..00000000 --- a/state/librarian-cache/884f705b1747af9cae9c6d17759fb8d18d9aef3af938e60efe013e8cd410c058.json +++ /dev/null @@ -1,546 +0,0 @@ -{ - "fetched_at": "2026-05-07T17:56:47Z", - "field": "computer science", - "prompt_version": "1.4.0", - "result": { - "cache_status": "miss", - "context": { - "field": "computer science", - "idea_body_excerpt": "---\nfield: computer science\nsubmitter: google.gemma-3-27b-it\n---\n\n# Investigating the Effectiveness of Different Loss Functions for Training Graph Neural Networks on Small Worlds\n\n**Field**: computer science\n\n## Research question\n\nHow does the clustering coefficient of small-world graphs influence the relative convergence efficiency of supervised versus contrastive loss functions in Graph Neural Networks?\n\n## Motivation\n\nSmall-world networks are ubiquitous in social, biological, and recommendation systems, yet GNN training protocols rarely account for specific topological properties during loss selection.

Approaches based on Deep Artificial Neural Networks (DANN) are very popular in our days. Depending on the learning task, the exact form of DANNs is determined via their multi-layer architecture, activation functions and the so-called loss function. However, for a majority of deep learning approaches based on DANNs, the kernel structure of neural signal processing remains the same, where the node response is encoded as a linear superposition of neural activity, while the non-linearity is triggered by the activation functions. In the current paper, we suggest to analyze the neural signal processing in DANNs from the point of view of homogeneous chaos theory as known from polynomial chaos expansion (PCE). From the PCE perspective, the (linear) response on each node of a DANN could be seen as a $1^{st}$ degree multi-variate polynomial of single neurons from the previous layer, i.e. linear weighted sum of monomials. From this point of view, the conventional DANN structure relies implicitly (but erroneously) on a Gaussian distribution of neural signals. Additionally, this view revels that by design DANNs do not necessarily fulfill any orthogonality or orthonormality condition for a majority of data-driven applications. Therefore, the prevailing handling of neural signals in DANNs could lead to redundant representation as any neural signal could contain some partial information from other neural signals. To tackle that challenge, we suggest to employ the data-driven generalization of PCE theory known as arbitrary polynomial chaos (aPC) to construct a corresponding multi-variate orthonormal representations on each node of a DANN to obtain Deep arbitrary polynomial chaos neural networks.", - "claimed_authors": [ - "Sergey Oladyshkin", - "Timothy Praditia", - "Ilja Kröker", - "Farid Mohammadi", - "Wolfgang Nowak", - "Sebastian Otte" - ], - "claimed_title": "The Deep Arbitrary Polynomial Chaos Neural Network or how Deep Artificial Neural Networks could benefit from Data-Driven Homogeneous Chaos Theory", - "claimed_venue": "arXiv", - "claimed_year": 2023, - "primary_pointer": "2306.14753" - }, - "details": "query-relevance 0.235 < 0.3 (query='How does the clustering coefficient of small-world graphs influence the relative', candidate_title='The Deep Arbitrary Polynomial Chaos Neural Network or how Deep Artificial Neural Networks could benefit from Data-Driven Homogeneous Chaos Theory')", - "failed_at": "2026-05-07T17:53:21Z", - "reason": "query_irrelevant" - }, - { - "candidate": { - "backend": "arxiv", - "claimed_abstract": "The small-world phenomenon is found in many self-organising systems.

Whilst it is a known fact that small-world networks have short average path length and high clustering coefficient in self-organising systems, the ego centralities that maintain the cohesiveness of small-world network have not been formally defined. Here we show that instantaneous events such as the release of news items via Twitter, coupled with active community arguments related to the news item form a particular type of small-world network. Analysis of the centralities in the network reveals that community arguments maintain the small-world network whilst actively maintaining the cohesiveness and boundary of the group. The results demonstrate how an active Twitter community unconsciously forms a small-world network whilst interacting locally with a bordering community. Over time, such local interactions brought about the global emergence of the small-world network, connecting media channels with human activities. Understanding the small-world phenomenon in relation to online social or civic movement is important, as evident in the spate of online activists that tipped the power of governments for the better or worst in recent times. The support, or removal of high centrality nodes in such networks has important ramifications in the self-expression of society and civic discourses.

Such a procedure leads to underestimation of the neighborhood clustering in sparse networks. We propose to include $θ$ as the proportion of leafs and isolated nodes to estimate the contribution of these cases and provide a formula for estimating a clustering coefficient excluding these cases from the Watts and Strogatz (1998 Nature 393 440-2) definition of the clustering coefficient. Excluding leafs and isolated nodes leads to values which are up to 140% higher than the traditional values for the observed networks indicating that neighborhood connectivity is normally underestimated. We find that the definition of the clustering coefficient has a major effect when comparing different networks. For metabolic networks of 43 organisms, relations changed for 58% of the comparisons when a different definition was applied.

As a natural extension, we also apply IGSD to semi-supervised scenarios by jointly regularizing the network with both supervised and self-supervised contrastive loss. Finally, we show that finetuning the IGSD-trained models with self-training can further improve the graph representation power.

The Dynamic Mode Decomposition (DMD) is a novel Koopman-based technique that effectively dissects high-dimensional nonlinear systems into periodically distinct constituents on reduced-order subspaces. As a novel mathematical hatchling, the DMD bears vast potentials yet an equal degree of unknown. This serial effort investigates the nuances of DMD sampling with an engineering-oriented emphasis. This Part I aimed at elucidating how sampling range and resolution affect the convergence of DMD modes. We employed the most classical nonlinear system in fluid mechanics as the test subject--the turbulent free-shear flow over a prism--for optimal pertinency. We numerically simulated the flow by the dynamic-stress Large-Eddies Simulation with Near-Wall Resolution. With the large-quantity, high-fidelity data, we parametrized and identified four global convergence states: Initialization, Transition, Stabilization, and Divergence with increasing sampling range. Results showed that the Stabilization is the optimal state for modal convergence, in which DMD output becomes independent of the sampling range. The Initialization state also yields sufficient accuracy for most system reconstruction tasks. Moreover, defying popular beliefs, over-sampling causes algorithmic instability: as the temporal dimension, n, approaches and transcends the spatial dimension, m (i.e., m < n), the output diverges and becomes meaningless. Additionally, the convergence of the sampling resolution depends on the mode-specific dynamics, such that the resolution of 15 frames per cycle for target activities is suggested for most engineering implementations.

Earlier identification of mutagenic compounds in the drug development process is therefore crucial for preventing the progression of unsafe candidates and reducing development costs. While computational techniques, especially machine learning models have become increasingly prevalent for this endpoint, they rely on a single modality. In this work, we introduce a novel stacked ensemble based mutagenicity prediction model which incorporate multiple modalities such as simplified molecular input line entry system (SMILES) and molecular graph. These modalities capture diverse information about molecules such as substructural, physicochemical, geometrical and topological. To derive substructural, geometrical and physicochemical information, we use SMILES, while topological information is extracted through a graph attention network (GAT) via molecular graph. Our model uses a stacked ensemble of machine learning classifiers to make predictions using these multiple features. We employ the explainable artificial intelligence (XAI) technique SHAP (Shapley Additive Explanations) to determine the significance of each classifier and the most relevant features in the prediction.

The necessity of changing the basic vector of development of modern toxicology in view of the achievements in the field of computer science and information technology is proved. In the framework of the study, attention was focused on the in silico approach, which allows to draw conclusions about the genotoxicity of a chemical compound in accordance with the identified functional groups that may underlie the manifestations of mutagenicity. The Ames system for determining structural markers of mutagenicity was implemented in accordance with publicly available databases of chemical compounds (EFSA, Kazius/Bursi and Hansen). The initial number of the merged dataset was increased by mycotoxins, and duplicates were removed. For each xenobiotic presented in the dataset, the mutagenic potential was determined using the in vitro Ames test. In order to effectively identify functional groups that may be signals of mutagenicity, it was decided to divide the xenobiotics of the combined data set into five structural classes. Such an approach to the formation of homogeneous groups of xenobiotics that may exhibit potential genotoxic properties allows us to identify structural markers of Ames mutagenicity within each class of mutagens. To obtain reliable information on the presence of a certain functional group - mutagenicity signal, taking into account the studied structural class of xenobiotics, it was proposed to use distance matrices calculated for each mutagen/non-mutagen pair of the combined data set. The similarity between the compounds was evaluated using classical similarity evaluation metrics (Tanimoto and Heming) according to the calculated three types of molecular fingerprints for each xenobiotic. The last stage of the implementation of the Ames system for detecting structural markers of mutagenicity was associated with the search for and application of an effective algorithm for visualizing multidimensional data. The literature analysis allowed us to choose the optimal algorithm for solving this problem. The chosen algorithm (t-SNE) allows multidimensional data (distance matrices for all mutagens and non-mutagens) to be represented in two-dimensional space. This visualization allows us to find all pairs (mutagen/non-mutagen) that have a sufficiently high similarity index and draw conclusions about the presence of certain functional groups that may underlie the manifestations of mutagenicity for each of the five structural classes of potential mutagens. It is quite interesting from the scientific point of view to analyze the effectiveness of using different types of structure fingerprints to identify structural warnings of Ames mutagenicity, which was carried out in the framework of this study. The result of the work is the developed software that allows determining structural markers of Ames mutagenicity based on the similarity of the structure fingerprints of chemical compounds represented in the combined data set.

Trained on 2.5 K virtual DNA‐Encoded Libraries (DELs), CoLiNN demonstrated high predictive performance, accurately predicting the compound position on Generative Topographic Maps (GTMs). GTMs predicted by CoLiNN were found very similar to the maps built for enumerated structures. In the library comparison task, we compared the GTMs of DELs and the ChEMBL database. The similarity‐based DELs/ChEMBL rankings obtained with “true” and CoLiNN predicted GTMs were consistent.

This study aimed to identify the optimal combination of molecular fingerprints (pattern-based versus algorithm-based) and machine learning algorithms (simple versus complex) for developing explainable toxicity prediction models through an comprehensive investigation of the ToxCast/Tox21 bioassay data set. For 1092 ToxCast/Tox21 assays, five molecular fingerprints (MACCS, Morgan, RDKit, Layered, and Patterned) and six algorithms (MLP, GBT, Random Forest, kNN, Logistic Regression, and Naïve Bayes) were used to train the models. Results showed that 35 models revealed acceptable performance (F1 score or accuracy is 0.8 or higher). Among the combinations, either MACCS or Morgan, paired with Random Forest, demonstrated robust performance compared with other molecular fingerprints and algorithms. MACCS and Random Forest are valuable, even when prioritizing interpretability. Consequently, the MACCS-Random Forest combination model based on four assays, targeting G protein-coupled receptor and kinase, were identified and they can be used to discern specific structural features or patterns in chemical compounds, offering explainable insights into toxicity-related chemical structures.

The target sites for electrophiles are typically peptides, proteins, enzymes or DNA. Of these, the formation of covalent adducts with proteins and DNA are perhaps the most established as they are most closely associated with skin sensitisation and genotoxicity endpoints. As such, being able to identify electrophilic features within a chemical structure provides a starting point to characterise its reactivity profile. There are a number of software tools that have been developed to help identify structural features indicative of electrophilic reactive potential to address various purposes, including: 1) to facilitate category formation for read-across of toxicity effects such as skin sensitisation potential, as well as 2) to profile substances to identify potential confounding factors to rationalise their activity in high-throughput screening (HTS) assays. Here, three such schemes that have been published in the literature as collections of SMARTS patterns and their associated chemical-biological reaction domains have been compared. The goals are 1) to better understand their scope and coverage, and 2) to assess their performance relative to a published skin sensitisation dataset where manual annotations to assign likely mechanistic domains based on expert judgement were already available. The 3 schemes were then applied to the Tox21 library and the consensus outcome was reported to highlight the proportion of chemicals likely to exhibit a reactivity response, specific to a mechanistic reaction domain, but non-specific with respect to target-tissue based activity.

In recent years, the use of high-performance computing clusters and massively parallel frameworks has enabled quantitative simulations of the evolution of individual and multiple precipitates at relevant length and time scales. However, predictive modeling of precipitate evolution remains challenging, in part because many key thermodynamic and kinetic parameters governing the underlying physics are either unknown or have a high degree of uncertainty. In this work, we developed a workflow in which experimental data were used to parameterize a phase-field model to perform two-dimensional (2D) simulations of concurrent nucleation and evolution of $\\beta_1$ precipitates in magnesium-neodymium alloy during aging. Matrix composition and precipitate number density at different aging times were obtained from atom probe tomography and transmission electron microscopy measurements, respectively. We applied a stereological method to estimate the three-dimensional (3D) number densities from experimental cross-sectional transmission electron micrographs. The estimated 3D number density data were then converted to effective 2D number densities. The effective 2D number density and composition data were used to determine the required model parameters by minimizing the discrepancy between simulation and experimental results. The parameterized model allows for quantitative phase-field simulations of nucleation and growth of $\\beta_1$ precipitates, which can be employed to optimize aging time to achieve a target number density of precipitates.

We also review how Bayesian field-level inference of primordial non-Gaussianity can constrain local primordial non-Gaussianity. We show how Euclid, with its unique combination of the main probes, will provide the tightest constraints on low redshift to date.

In this first in a series of six papers, we describe the theoretical recipe of this code for the Euclid primary probes. These probes are composed of the photometric 3x2pt observables of cosmic shear, galaxy-galaxy lensing, and galaxy clustering, along with spectroscopic galaxy clustering. We provide this description in both Fourier and configuration space for standard and extended summary statistics, including the wide range of systematic uncertainties that affect them. This includes systematic uncertainties such as intrinsic galaxy alignments, baryonic feedback, photometric and spectroscopic redshift uncertainties, shear calibration uncertainties, sample impurities, photometric and spectroscopic galaxy biases, as well as magnification bias. The theoretical descriptions are further able to accommodate both Gaussian and non-Gaussian likelihoods and extended cosmologies with non-zero curvature, massive neutrinos, evolving dark energy, and simple forms of modified gravity. These theoretical descriptions that underpin CLOE will form a crucial component in revealing the true nature of the Universe with next-generation cosmological surveys such as Euclid.", + "claimed_authors": [ + "Euclid Collaboration V.

These methods have been designed to produce non-singular and unbiased covariances for Euclid's large anticipated data vector and will be critical for validation against observational systematic effects. We constructed jackknife segments that are equal in area to a high precision by adapting the binary space partition algorithm to work on arbitrarily shaped regions on the unit sphere. Jackknife estimates of the covariances are internally derived and require no assumptions about cosmology or galaxy population and bias. Our covariance estimation, called DICES (Debiased Internal Covariance Estimation with Shrinkage), first estimated a noisy covariance through conventional delete-1 jackknife resampling. This was followed by linear shrinkage of the empirical correlation matrix towards the Gaussian prediction, rather than linear shrinkage of the covariance matrix. Shrinkage ensures the covariance is non-singular and therefore invertible, which is critical for the estimation of likelihoods and validation. We then applied a delete-2 jackknife bias correction to the diagonal components of the jackknife covariance that removed the general tendency for jackknife error estimates to be biased high. We validated internally derived covariances, which used the jackknife resampling technique, on synthetic Euclid-like lognormal catalogues. We demonstrate that DICES produces accurate, non-singular covariance estimates, with the relative error improving by 33% for the covariance and 48% for the correlation structure in comparison to jackknife estimates. These estimates can be used for highly accurate regression and inference.", + "claimed_authors": [ + "Euclid Collaboration K. Naidoo", + "J. Ruiz-Zapatero", + "N. Tessore", + "B. Joachimi", + "A.

The research in intrinsically magnetic two-dimensional materials mainly focuses on synthetic iodide and telluride based compounds, which inherently suffer from the lack of ambient stability. So far, naturally occurring layered magnetic materials have been vastly overlooked. These minerals offer a unique opportunity to explore air-stable complex layered systems with high concentration of local moment bearing ions. We demonstrate magnetic ordering in iron-rich two-dimensional phyllosilicates, focusing on mineral species of minnesotaite, annite, and biotite. These are naturally occurring van der Waals magnetic materials which integrate local moment baring ions of iron via magnesium/aluminium substitution in their octahedral sites. Due to self-inherent capping by silicate/aluminate tetrahedral groups, ultra-thin layers are air-stable. Chemical characterization, quantitative elemental analysis, and iron oxidation states were determined via Raman spectroscopy, wavelength disperse X-ray spectroscopy, X-ray absorption spectroscopy, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. Superconducting quantum interference device magnetometry measurements were performed to examine the magnetic ordering. These layered materials exhibit paramagnetic or superparamagnetic characteristics at room temperature. At low temperature ferrimagnetic or antiferromagnetic ordering occurs, with the critical ordering temperature of 38.7 K for minnesotaite, 36.1 K for annite, and 4.9 K for biotite. In-field magnetic force microscopy on iron bearing phyllosilicates confirmed the paramagnetic response at room temperature, present down to monolayers.", + "claimed_authors": [ + "Muhammad Zubair Khan", + "Oleg E.

Particularly, being subjected to significant fluxes of fusion neutrons RAFM steel suffers considerable local volume variations in the radiation damage involved regions. It is necessary to study the structure properties of the alloying elements in contraction and expansion states. In this paper we studied local substitution structures of thirteen alloying elements Al, Co, Cr, Cu, Mn, Mo, Nb, Ni, Si, Ta, Ti, V, and W in bcc Fe and calculated their substitutional energies in the volume variation range from -1.0% to 1.0%. From the structure relaxation results of the first five neighbor shells around the substitutional atom we find the relaxation in each neighbor shell keeps approximately uniform within the volume variation from -1.0% to 1.0% except those of Mn and the relaxation of the fifth neighbor shell is stronger than that of the third and forth, indicating that the lattice distortion due to the substitution atom is easier to spread in <111> direction than in other direction. The relaxation pattern and intensity are related to the size and electron structure of the substitutional atom. For some alloying elements, such as Mo, Nb, Ni, Ta, Ti and W, the substitutional energy decreases noticeably when the volume increases. Further analysis show that the substitutional energy comprises the energy variation originated from local structure relaxation and the chemical potential difference of the substitutional atom between its elemental crystalline state and the solid solution phase in bcc Fe. We think the approximately uniform relaxation of each neighbor shell around a substitutional atom give rise to a linear decrease in the substitutional energy with the increasing volume.", + "claimed_authors": [ + "Wei Liu", + "Wei-Lu Wang", + "C.

It provides an overview of dark energy science and describes the current and anticipated state of the field. It makes the case for the DESC by laying out a robust analytical framework for dark energy science that has been defined by its members and the comprehensive three-year work plan they have developed for implementing that framework. The analysis working groups cover five key probes of dark energy: weak lensing, large scale structure, galaxy clusters, Type Ia supernovae, and strong lensing. The computing working groups span cosmological simulations, galaxy catalogs, photon simulations and a systematic software and computational framework for LSST dark energy data analysis. The technical working groups make the connection between dark energy science and the LSST system. The working groups have close linkages, especially through the use of the photon simulations to study the impact of instrument design and survey strategy on analysis methodology and cosmological parameter estimation. The white paper describes several high priority tasks identified by each of the 16 working groups. Over the next three years these tasks will help prepare for LSST analysis, make synergistic connections with ongoing cosmological surveys and provide the dark energy community with state of the art analysis tools.

To this end, we primarily focus on two critical tasks of information extraction: (i) a named entity recognition (NER) of studied materials and physical properties and (ii) a relation extraction (RE) between these entities. Due to the evident lack of datasets within Materials Informatics (MI), we evaluated using SuperMat, based on superconductor research, and MeasEval, a generic measurement evaluation corpus. The performance of LLMs in executing these tasks is benchmarked against traditional models based on the BERT architecture and rule-based approaches (baseline). We introduce a novel methodology for the comparative analysis of intricate material expressions, emphasising the standardisation of chemical formulas to tackle the complexities inherent in materials science information assessment. For NER, LLMs fail to outperform the baseline with zero-shot prompting and exhibit only limited improvement with few-shot prompting. However, a GPT-3.5-Turbo fine-tuned with the appropriate strategy for RE outperforms all models, including the baseline. Without any fine-tuning, GPT-4 and GPT-4-Turbo display remarkable reasoning and relationship extraction capabilities after being provided with merely a couple of examples, surpassing the baseline. Overall, the results suggest that although LLMs demonstrate relevant reasoning skills in connecting concepts, specialised models are currently a better choice for tasks requiring extracting complex domain-specific entities like materials.

We explain the microscopic origin of the emergent Kugel-Khomskii physics in each realization with some emphasis on the $J=3/2$ quadruplets, and refer the candidate multiflavor Mott insulators as \"$J=3/2$ Mott insulators\". For the ultracold atoms, we review the multiflavor Mott insulator realization with the ultracold alkaline and alkaline-earth atoms on the optical lattices. Despite a large local Hilbert space from the atomic hyperfine spin states, the system could naturally realize a large symmetry group such as the Sp($N$) and SU($N$) symmetries. These ultracold atomic systems lie in the large-$N$ regime of these symmetry groups and are characterized by strong quantum fluctuations. The Kugel-Khomskii physics and the exotic quantum ground states with the \"baryon-like\" physics can appear in various limits.

The effect of these impurities at the atomic scale can either embrittle or strengthen grain boundaries within. Thus, it is imperative to understand the energetics associated with segregation to design materials with desirable properties. Here, molecular statics simulations were employed to analyze the energetics associated with the segregation of various elements (He, H, C, P, and V) to four <100> (Sigma 5 and 13 GBs) and six <110> (Sigma 3,9,and 11 GBs) symmetric tilt grain boundaries in alpha-Fe. This knowledge is important for designing stable interfaces in harsh environments. Simulation results show that the local atomic arrangements within the GB region and the resulting structural units have a significant influence on the magnitude of binding energies of the impurity (interstitial and substitutional) atoms. This data also suggests that the site-to-site variation of energies within a boundary is substantial. Comparing the binding energies of all ten boundaries shows that the Sigma 3(112) boundary possesses a much smaller binding energy for all interstitial and substitutional impurity atoms among the boundaries examined here. Additionally, based on the Rice-Wang model, our total energy calculations show that V has a significant beneficial effect on the Fe grain boundary cohesion, while P has a detrimental effect on grain boundary cohesion, much weaker than H and He. This is significant for applications where extreme environmental damage generates lattice defects and grain boundaries act as sinks for both interstitial and substitutional impurity atoms.

In this paper, we demonstrate that such driving forces cannot explain, nor thus predict, segregation in some alloys.

No significant change in the grain size or structure is observed upon Zr dopant addition to a pure Cu polycrystal at moderate temperature, where grain boundary segregation is the dominant behavior. Segregation within the boundary network is inhomogeneous, with some boundaries having local concentrations that are an order of magnitude larger than the global value and others having almost no segregation, and changes to physical parameters such as boundary free volume and energy are found to correlate with dopant concentration. Further, another alloy sample is investigated at a higher temperature to probe the occurrence of widespread transitions in interfacial structure, where a significant fraction of the originally ordered boundaries transition to amorphous complexions, demonstrating the coexistence of multiple complexion types, each with their own distribution of boundary chemical composition.

Unfortunately, the fabrication of nanocrystalline metals often requires non-equilibrium processing routes, which typically limit the specimen size and require large energy budgets. In this study, multiple dopant atoms in ternary Al alloys are deliberately selected to enable segregation to the grain boundary region and promote the formation of amorphous complexions. Three different fully dense bulk nanocrystalline Al alloys (Al-Mg-Y, Al-Fe-Y, and Al-Ni-Y) with small grain sizes were successfully fabricated using a simple powder metallurgy approach, with full densification connected directly to the onset of amorphous complexion formation. All the compositions demonstrate densities above 99% with grain sizes of <60 nm following consolidation via hot pressing at 585 oC. The very fine grain structure results in excellent mechanical properties, with nanoindentation hardness values in the range of 2.2-2.8 GPa. Detailed microstructural characterization verifies the segregation of all dopant species to grain boundaries as well as the formation of amorphous complexions, which suggests their influential role in aiding effective consolidation and endowing thermal stability in the alloys. Moreover, nanorods with a core-shell structure are also observed at the grain boundaries, which likely contribute to the stabilization of the grain structure and high strength.

The process starts with solute enrichment on grain boundaries due to equilibrium segregation accompanied by solute depletion in their vicinity, the formation of Guinier--Preston (GP) zones in the solute-enriched grain boundary regions, and GP zones growth and transformation. The equilibrium segregation of solutes to grain boundaries during aging accelerates this sequence compared to the bulk. Analysis of the ~10 nm wide precipitate-free zones (PFZs) adjacent to the solute-enriched grain boundaries 2 shows that the depletion zones are determined by (i) interface equilibrium segregation; (ii) formation and coarsening of the grain boundary precipitates and (iii) the diffusion range of solutes in the matrix. In addition, we quantify the difference in kinetics between grain boundary and bulk precipitation. The precipitation kinetics, as observed in terms of volume fraction, average radius, and number density, is almost identical next to the depletion zone in the bulk and far inside the bulk grain remote from any grain boundary influence.

In the current paper, we suggest to analyze the neural signal processing in DANNs from the point of view of homogeneous chaos theory as known from polynomial chaos expansion (PCE). From the PCE perspective, the (linear) response on each node of a DANN could be seen as a $1^{st}$ degree multi-variate polynomial of single neurons from the previous layer, i.e. linear weighted sum of monomials. From this point of view, the conventional DANN structure relies implicitly (but erroneously) on a Gaussian distribution of neural signals. Additionally, this view revels that by design DANNs do not necessarily fulfill any orthogonality or orthonormality condition for a majority of data-driven applications. Therefore, the prevailing handling of neural signals in DANNs could lead to redundant representation as any neural signal could contain some partial information from other neural signals. To tackle that challenge, we suggest to employ the data-driven generalization of PCE theory known as arbitrary polynomial chaos (aPC) to construct a corresponding multi-variate orthonormal representations on each node of a DANN to obtain Deep arbitrary polynomial chaos neural networks.", + "claimed_authors": [ + "Sergey Oladyshkin", + "Timothy Praditia", + "Ilja Kröker", + "Farid Mohammadi", + "Wolfgang Nowak", + "Sebastian Otte" + ], + "claimed_title": "The Deep Arbitrary Polynomial Chaos Neural Network or how Deep Artificial Neural Networks could benefit from Data-Driven Homogeneous Chaos Theory", + "claimed_venue": "arXiv", + "claimed_year": 2023, + "primary_pointer": "2306.14753" + }, + "details": "query-relevance 0.235 < 0.3 (query='How does the clustering coefficient of small-world graphs influence the relative', candidate_title='The Deep Arbitrary Polynomial Chaos Neural Network or how Deep Artificial Neural Networks could benefit from Data-Driven Homogeneous Chaos Theory')", + "failed_at": "2026-05-08T20:12:55Z", + "reason": "query_irrelevant" + }, + { + "candidate": { + "backend": "semantic_scholar", + "claimed_abstract": null, + "claimed_authors": [ + "Naeim Bahrami", + "T.

We derive the value of the single critical exponent controlling behavior in the critical region and the finite size scaling form for the average vertex-vertex distance on the network, and, using series expansion and Padé approximants, find an approximate analytic form for the scaling function. We calculate the effective dimension of small-world graphs and show that this dimension varies as a function of the length-scale on which it is measured, in a manner reminiscent of multifractals. We also study the problem of site percolation on small-world networks as a simple model of disease propagation, and derive an approximate expression for the percolation probability at which a giant component of connected vertices first forms (in epidemiological terms, the point at which an epidemic occurs).

In this paper we present Embedding Earth a self-supervised contrastive pre-training method for leveraging the large availability of satellite imagery to improve performance on downstream dense land cover classification tasks. Performing an extensive experimental evaluation spanning four countries and two continents we use models pre-trained with our proposed method as initialization points for supervised land cover semantic segmentation and observe significant improvements up to 25% absolute mIoU.

In this work, we are interested in exploring a principled way to scale GNNs capacity without deepening or widening, which can improve its performance across multiple small and large graphs. Motivated by the recent intriguing phenomenon of model soups, which suggest that fine-tuned weights of multiple large-language pre-trained models can be merged to a better minima, we argue to exploit the fundamentals of model soups to mitigate the aforementioned issues of memory bottleneck and trainability during GNNs scaling. More specifically, we propose not to deepen or widen current GNNs, but instead present a data-centric perspective of model soups tailored for GNNs, i.e., to build powerful GNNs. By dividing giant graph data, we build multiple independently and parallelly trained weaker GNNs (soup ingredient) without any intermediate communication, and combine their strength using a greedy interpolation soup procedure to achieve state-of-the-art performance. Compared to concurrent distributed GNN training works such as Jiong et. al. 2023, we train each soup ingredient by sampling different subgraphs per epoch and their respective sub-models are merged only after being fully trained (rather than intermediately so). Moreover, we provide a wide variety of model soup preparation techniques by leveraging state-of-the-art graph sampling and graph partitioning approaches that can handle large graphs.

To this end, Graph Neural Network (GNN) is a widely used technique for link prediction, mainly in transductive settings, where the goal is to predict missing links between existing nodes. However, many real-life applications require an inductive setting that accommodates for new nodes, coming into an existing graph. Thus, recently inductive link prediction has attracted considerable attention, and a multi-layer perceptron (MLP) is the popular choice of most studies to learn node representations. However, these approaches have limited expressivity and do not fully capture the graph's structural signal. Therefore, in this work we propose LEAP, an inductive link prediction method based on LEArnable toPology augmentation. Unlike previous methods, LEAP models the inductive bias from both the structure and node features, and hence is more expressive. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first attempt to provide structural contexts for new nodes via learnable augmentation in inductive settings. Extensive experiments on seven real-world homogeneous and heterogeneous graphs demonstrates that LEAP significantly surpasses SOTA methods.

We establish theoretical guarantees for this pattern through random walk theory, proving label distribution convergence and characterizing the mechanisms behind different decay behaviors. This discovery reveals that graphs naturally encode relative similarity patterns, where structurally closer nodes exhibit collectively stronger semantic relationships. Leveraging this insight, we propose RELGCL, a novel GCL framework with complementary pairwise and listwise implementations that preserve these inherent patterns through collective similarity objectives.

Graph contrastive learning aims to learn from high-order collaborative filtering signals with unsupervised augmentation on the user-item bipartite graph, which predominantly relies on the multi-task learning framework involving both the pair-wise recommendation loss and the contrastive loss. This decoupled design can cause inconsistent optimization direction from different losses, which leads to longer convergence time and even sub-optimal performance. Besides, the self-supervised contrastive loss falls short in alleviating the data sparsity issue in RecSys as it learns to differentiate users/items from different views without providing extra supervised collaborative filtering signals during augmentations. In this paper, we propose Mixed Supervised Graph Contrastive Learning for Recommendation (MixSGCL) to address these concerns. MixSGCL originally integrates the training of recommendation and unsupervised contrastive losses into a supervised contrastive learning loss to align the two tasks within one optimization direction. To cope with the data sparsity issue, instead unsupervised augmentation, we further propose node-wise and edge-wise mixup to mine more direct supervised collaborative filtering signals based on existing user-item interactions.

The main emphasis will be then on two paradigmal neural network architectures showing continuously ongoing transient-state dynamics: saddle point networks and networks of attractor relics.\n Self-active neural networks are confronted with two seemingly contrasting demands: a stable internal dynamical state and sensitivity to incoming stimuli. We show, that this dilemma can be solved by networks of attractor relics based on competitive neural dynamics, where the attractor relics compete on one side with each other for transient dominance, and on the other side with the dynamical influence of the input signals. Unsupervised and local Hebbian-style online learning then allows the system to build up correlations between the internal dynamical transient states and the sensory input stream. An emergent cognitive capability results from this set-up. The system performs online, and on its own, a non-linear independent component analysis of the sensory data stream, all the time being continuously and autonomously active. This process maps the independent components of the sensory input onto the attractor relics, which acquire in this way a semantic meaning.", + "claimed_authors": [ + "Claudius Gros" + ], + "claimed_title": "Cognitive computation with autonomously active neural networks: an emerging field", + "claimed_venue": "arXiv", + "claimed_year": 2009, + "primary_pointer": "0901.3028" + }, + "details": "query-relevance 0.091 < 0.3 (query='How does gut microbiome taxonomic composition relate to cognitive performance in', candidate_title='Cognitive computation with autonomously active neural networks: an emerging field')", + "failed_at": "2026-05-08T19:48:10Z", + "reason": "query_irrelevant" + }, + { + "candidate": { + "backend": "semantic_scholar", + "claimed_abstract": "The effects of synthetic, free-amino acid diets, similar to those prescribed as supplements for (phenylketonuria) PKU patients, on gut microbiota and overall health are not well understood.

Finally, we measured TNF-α, IL-6, and IL-10 in serum, the hippocampus, and colon, and found that the synthetic diet significantly increased IL-6 production in the hippocampus.

Recent advances in experimental approaches and theory provide a broader perspective on the role of the thalamus in cognitively-relevant cortical computations, and suggest that only a subset of thalamic circuit motifs fit the relay description. Here, we discuss this perspective and highlight the potential role for the thalamus -- and specifically mediodorsal (MD) nucleus -- in dynamic selection of cortical representations through a combination of intrinsic thalamic computations and output signals that change cortical network functional parameters.

Life’s Essential 8 (LE8), developed by the American Heart Association, includes vital metrics of cardiovascular health, such as diet, physical activity, nicotine exposure, sleep health, body mass index (BMI), blood glucose, blood lipids, and blood pressure. In this study, we analyzed data from 781 participants in the Framingham Heart Study (FHS) to explore the relationship between LE8 adherence, gut microbiota, and cognitive performance. Participants with greater adherence to LE8 demonstrated significantly increased gut microbial diversity (α-diversity: Chao1, p = 0.0014; Shannon, p = 0.0071) and distinct microbial compositions (β-diversity: PERMANOVA p = 1e-4). Higher adherence to LE8 was related to an increased abundance of genera Barnesiella and Ruminococcus, while a reduced abundance of Clostridium was associated with higher LE8 adherence. Greater gut microbial diversity (α-diversity: Chao1, p = 0.0012; Shannon, p = 0.0066), and beneficial genera like Oscillospira correlated with better global cognitive scores (GCS). Taxonomic overlap analyses revealed microbial taxa that simultaneously influence both LE8 adherence and cognitive outcomes. Mediation analyses indicated that specific taxa, including Barnesiella and Lentisphaerae, mediated the link between LE8 adherence and cognitive performance. These taxa may serve as key modulators in the gut-brain axis, connecting cardiovascular and brain health. Conversely, higher Clostridium abundance was associated with poorer cognitive performance.

Psychobiotics are microbiota-targeted interventions that can result in mental health benefits and protect the aging brain. This study investigated the gut microbiome composition and predicted microbial functional pathways of middle-aged and older adults that met criteria for mild cognitive impairment (MCI), compared to neurologically healthy individuals, and investigated the impact of probiotic Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG (LGG) in a double-blind, placebo-controlled, randomized clinical trial. A total of 169 community-dwelling middle-aged (52-59 years) and older adults (60-75 years) received a three-month intervention and were randomized to probiotic and placebo groups. Participants were further subdivided based on cognitive status into groups with intact or impaired cognition and samples were collected at baseline and post supplementation.\n\n\nRESULTS\nMicrobiome analysis identified Prevotella ruminicola, Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron, and Bacteroides xylanisolvens as taxa correlated with MCI. Differential abundance analysis at baseline identified Prevotella as significantly more prevalent in MCI subjects compared to cognitively intact subjects (ALDEx2 P = 0.0017, ANCOM-BC P = 0.0004). A decrease in the relative abundance of the genus Prevotella and Dehalobacterium in response to LGG supplementation in the MCI group was correlated with an improved cognitive score.\n\n\nCONCLUSIONS\nOur study points to specific members of the gut microbiota correlated with cognitive performance in middle-aged and older adults. Should findings be replicated, these taxa could be used as key early indicators of MCI and manipulated by probiotics, prebiotics, and symbiotics to promote successful cognitive aging.

Notably, the gut microbiome has recently been reported to communicate with the brain to affect behavior, including cognition. Thus, the aim of this clinical longitudinal, observational study was to determine whether chemotherapy-induced disruption of the gut microbial community structure relates to cognitive decline and circulating inflammatory signals. Fecal samples, blood, and cognitive measures were collected from 77 patients with breast cancer before, during, and after chemotherapy. Chemotherapy altered the gut microbiome community structure and increased circulating TNF-α. Both the chemotherapy-induced changes in microbial relative abundance and decreased microbial diversity were related to elevated circulating pro-inflammatory cytokines, TNF-α and IL-6. Participants reported subjective cognitive decline during chemotherapy, which was not related to changes in the gut microbiome or inflammatory markers. In contrast, a decrease in overall objective cognition was related to a decrease in microbial diversity, independent of circulating cytokines. Stratification of subjects, via a reliable change index based on all 4 objective cognitive tests, identified objective cognitive decline in 35% of the subjects. Based on a differential microbial abundance analysis, those characterized by cognitive decline had unique taxonomic shifts (Faecalibacterium, Bacteroides, Fusicatenibacter, Erysipelotrichaceae UCG-003, and Subdoligranulum) over chemotherapy treatment compared to those without cognitive decline.

Previous studies mainly focus on developing various deep learning architectures and training them in a fully supervised manner. Although significant progress has been achieved by these supervised methods, the longstanding lack of large-scale high-quality labeled data severely hinders their further improvements. Motivated by the recent success of self-supervised learning in computer vision, this paper introduces a self-supervised approach, termed Self-supervised Video Facial Affect Perceiver (SVFAP), to address the dilemma faced by supervised methods. Specifically, SVFAP leverages masked facial video autoencoding to perform self-supervised pre-training on massive unlabeled facial videos. Considering that large spatiotemporal redundancy exists in facial videos, we propose a novel temporal pyramid and spatial bottleneck Transformer as the encoder of SVFAP, which not only largely reduces computational costs but also achieves excellent performance. To verify the effectiveness of our method, we conduct experiments on nine datasets spanning three downstream tasks, including dynamic facial expression recognition, dimensional emotion recognition, and personality recognition. Comprehensive results demonstrate that SVFAP can learn powerful affect-related representations via large-scale self-supervised pre-training and it significantly outperforms previous state-of-the-art methods on all datasets.

We utilized only position information relative to the emotion cause to accomplish this goal. Since position information alone without observing the text resulted in higher F-measure, we therefore uncovered a bias in the ECE single genre Sina-news benchmark. Further analysis showed that an imbalance of emotional cause location exists in the benchmark, with a majority of cause clauses immediately preceding the central emotion clause. We examine the bias from a linguistic perspective, and show that high accuracy rate of current state-of-art deep learning models that utilize location information is only evident in datasets that contain such position biases. The accuracy drastically reduced when a dataset with balanced location distribution is introduced. We therefore conclude that it is the innate bias in this benchmark that caused high accuracy rate of these deep learning models in ECE.

A rapid serial visual presentation experiment was conducted with oddball images generated at varying distances from the target to determine how P300 amplitude related to GAN-derived distances. The results showed that distance-to-target was monotonically related to the P300, showing perceptual identification was associated with smooth, drifting image similarity. Furthermore, regression modeling indicated that while the P3a and P3b sub-components had distinct responses in location, time, and amplitude, they were similarly related to target distance.

Approaches based on Deep Artificial Neural Networks (DANN) are very popular in our days. Depending on the learning task, the exact form of DANNs is determined via their multi-layer architecture, activation functions and the so-called loss function. However, for a majority of deep learning approaches based on DANNs, the kernel structure of neural signal processing remains the same, where the node response is encoded as a linear superposition of neural activity, while the non-linearity is triggered by the activation functions. In the current paper, we suggest to analyze the neural signal processing in DANNs from the point of view of homogeneous chaos theory as known from polynomial chaos expansion (PCE). From the PCE perspective, the (linear) response on each node of a DANN could be seen as a $1^{st}$ degree multi-variate polynomial of single neurons from the previous layer, i.e. linear weighted sum of monomials. From this point of view, the conventional DANN structure relies implicitly (but erroneously) on a Gaussian distribution of neural signals. Additionally, this view revels that by design DANNs do not necessarily fulfill any orthogonality or orthonormality condition for a majority of data-driven applications. Therefore, the prevailing handling of neural signals in DANNs could lead to redundant representation as any neural signal could contain some partial information from other neural signals. To tackle that challenge, we suggest to employ the data-driven generalization of PCE theory known as arbitrary polynomial chaos (aPC) to construct a corresponding multi-variate orthonormal representations on each node of a DANN to obtain Deep arbitrary polynomial chaos neural networks.", - "claimed_authors": [ - "Sergey Oladyshkin", - "Timothy Praditia", - "Ilja Kröker", - "Farid Mohammadi", - "Wolfgang Nowak", - "Sebastian Otte" - ], - "claimed_title": "The Deep Arbitrary Polynomial Chaos Neural Network or how Deep Artificial Neural Networks could benefit from Data-Driven Homogeneous Chaos Theory", - "claimed_venue": "arXiv", - "claimed_year": 2023, - "primary_pointer": "2306.14753" - }, - "details": "query-relevance 0.000 < 0.3 (query='How does brief exposure to emotional facial expressions (positive vs', candidate_title='The Deep Arbitrary Polynomial Chaos Neural Network or how Deep Artificial Neural Networks could benefit from Data-Driven Homogeneous Chaos Theory')", - "failed_at": "2026-05-07T18:47:06Z", - "reason": "query_irrelevant" - }, - { - "candidate": { - "backend": "arxiv", - "claimed_abstract": "Random Neural Networks (RNNs) are a class of Neural Networks (NNs) that can also be seen as a specific type of queuing network.

The literature on affective priming has mostly focused on brief influences of emotional stimuli and emotional states on perceptual and cognitive processes. Yet this approach does not fully capture more dynamic processes at the root of emotional states, with such states lingering beyond the duration of the inducing external stimuli. Our goal was to put in perspective three different types of affective states (induced affective states, more sustained mood states and affective traits such as depression and anxiety) and investigate how they may interact and influence emotion perception. Here, we hypothesized that absorption into positive and negative emotional episodes generate sustained affective states that outlast the episode period and bias the interpretation of facial expressions in a perceptual decision-making task. We also investigated how such effects are influenced by more sustained mood states and by individual affect traits (depression and anxiety) and whether they interact. Transient emotional states were induced using movie-clips, after which participants performed a forced-choice emotion classification task with morphed facial expressions ranging from fear to happiness. Using a psychometric approach, we show that negative (vs. neutral) clips increased participants’ propensity to classify ambiguous faces as fearful during several minutes. In contrast, positive movies biased classification toward happiness only for those clips perceived as most absorbing. Negative mood, anxiety and depression had a stronger effect than transient states and increased the propensity to classify ambiguous faces as fearful. These results provide the first evidence that absorption and different temporal dimensions of emotions have a significant effect on how we perceive facial expressions.", - "summary_grounded_pdf": false, - "verification_log": { - "final_url": "https://journals.plos.org/plosone/article?id=10.1371/journal.pone.0171375", - "http_status": 200, - "pdf_sample_score": null, - "query_relevance_score": 0.8333, - "redirect_chain": [ - "https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0171375", - "https://dx.plos.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0171375", - "https://journals.plos.org/plosone/doi?id=10.1371/journal.pone.0171375" - ], - "summary_grounding_score": 1.0, - "title_token_overlap_score": 1.0, - "url_resolves": true, - "verified_at": "2026-05-07T18:43:59Z" - } - }, - { - "bibliographic_info": { - "authors": [ - "Yu-Fang Yang", - "Matthias Gamer" - ], - "title": "Facial features associated with fear and happiness attract gaze during brief exposure without enhancing emotion recognition", - "venue": "Scientific Reports", - "year": 2025 - }, - "primary_pointer": "https://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-025-12327-6", - "summary": "Facial features transmit emotions but their effect on visual orienting and explicit emotion recognition is debated. Here we examined whether fixating on diagnostic features of emotional expressions—such as eye region for fear and the mouth for happiness—affects saccadic targeting and improves recognition accuracy. Across two pre-registered experiments, participants viewed fearful, happy, and neutral faces for short intervals (50 or 150 ms) while the initial fixation location was manipulated. Although such brief stimulation does not allow for visual exploration, the faces still elicited reflexive saccades that occurred after stimulus offset. These saccades were modulated by the emotional expressions indicating a consistent preferential saccadic orienting towards diagnostic features, even with limited exposure. As this effect disappeared for inverted faces, it can be attributed to an extrafoveal processing of facial features instead of an attentional orienting towards physically salient image regions. Participants’ recognition accuracy was unaffected by the foveated facial feature, but this observation might also be due to ceiling effects in performance.

In high-threat contexts, rapid and accurate decoding of others’ emotions is adaptively advantageous. Grounded in neurocognitive models of face processing and vigilance, we tested whether brief perceptual adaptation to emotionally salient scenes, real-world disaster exposure, and pre-traumatic stress reactions enhance facial-emotion categorization. Methods: Fifty healthy adults reported prior direct exposure to catastrophic events (present/absent) and completed the Pre-Traumatic Stress Reactions Checklist (Pre-Cl; low/high). In a computerized task, participants viewed a single adaptor image for 5 s—negative (disaster), positive (pleasant environment), or neutral (phase-scrambled)—and then categorized a target face as emotional (fearful, angry, happy) or neutral as quickly and accurately as possible. Performance was compared across adaptation conditions and target emotions and examined as a function of disaster exposure and Pre-Cl. Results: Emotional adaptation (negative or positive) yielded better performance than neutral adaptation. Higher-order interactions among adaptation condition, target emotion, disaster exposure, and Pre-Cl indicated that the magnitude of facilitation varied across specific facial emotions and was modulated by both experiential (exposed vs. non-exposed) and dispositional (low vs. high Pre-Cl) factors. These effects support a combined influence of short-term contextual tuning and longer-term experience on facial-emotion categorization. Conclusions: Brief exposure to emotionally salient scenes facilitates subsequent categorization of facial emotions relative to neutral baselines, and this benefit is differentially shaped by prior disaster exposure and pre-traumatic stress. The findings provide behavioral evidence that short-term perceptual adaptation and longer-term experiential predispositions jointly modulate a fundamental communicative behavior, consistent with neurocognitive accounts in which context-sensitive visual pathways and salience systems dynamically adjust to support adaptive responding under threat.", - "summary_grounded_pdf": false, - "verification_log": { - "final_url": "https://www.mdpi.com/2076-3425/16/1/5", - "http_status": 403, - "pdf_sample_score": null, - "query_relevance_score": 1.0, - "redirect_chain": [ - "https://doi.org/10.3390/brainsci16010005" - ], - "summary_grounding_score": 1.0, - "title_token_overlap_score": 1.0, - "url_resolves": true, - "verified_at": "2026-05-07T18:44:01Z" - } - }, - { - "bibliographic_info": { - "authors": [ - "R.

Autistic adolescents specifically produced longer positive facial expressions, including in response to negative videos, a pattern not seen in non-autistic adolescents.

Surprisingly, short-duration primes that are around the threshold for conscious awareness typically result in stronger effects compared to long-duration primes. The misattribution effect theory suggest that subliminal primes do not provide sufficient cognitive processing time for the affective feeling to be attributed to the prime. Instead, the neutral target being evaluated is credited for the affective experience. In everyday social interactions, we shift our gaze from one face to another, typically contemplating each face for only a few seconds. It is reasonable to assume that no affective priming takes place during such interactions. To investigate whether this is indeed the case, participants were asked to rate the valence of faces displayed one by one. Each face image simultaneously served as both a target (primed by the previous trial) and a prime (for the next trial). Depending on the participant’s response time, images were typically displayed for about 1–2 s. As predicted by the misattribution effect theory, neutral targets were not affected by positive affective priming. However, non-neutral targets showed a robust priming effect, with emotional faces being perceived as even more negative or positive when the previously seen face was emotionally congruent. These results suggest that a “correct attribution effect” modulates how we perceive faces, continuously impacting our social interactions.

To date, radiofrequency (RF)-guided high-power short-duration (HPSD) ablation represents the gold standard besides cryo-ablation for pulmonary vein isolation (PVI). This single-centre, retrospective study investigated the efficacy of PFA-PVI vs. HPSD-RF PVI in terms of single-procedure arrhythmia-free outcome and safety in a real-world setting. Methods and results Consecutive, paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (AF) patients who underwent PVI using PFA or HPSD-RF were enrolled. In group PFA, PVI was performed using a pentaspline PFA catheter. The ablation procedure in group HPSD-RF was performed with RF energy (45 W, ablation index). A total of 410 patients (group PFA, 201; group HPSD-RF, 209) were included. There was no difference between both groups regarding age, gender, and CHA2DS2-VASc score. The procedure time was significantly shorter in group PFA [61 (44–103) vs. 125 (105–143) min; P < 0.001]; fluoroscopy time and dose area product were significantly higher in group PFA [16 (13–20) vs. 4 (2–5) min; P < 0.01 and 412 (270–739) vs. 129 (58–265) μGym2; P < 0.01]. The overall complication rates were 2.9% in group PFA and 6.2% in group HPSD (P = 0.158). There was one fatal stroke in the PFA group. The 1-year Kaplan–Meier estimated freedom from any atrial tachyarrhythmia was 85% with PFA and 79% with HPSD-RF (log-rank P = 0.160). In 56 repeat ablation procedures, the PV reconnection rate was 30% after PFA and 38% after HPSD-RF (P = 0.372). Conclusion Both PFA and HPSD-RF were highly efficient and effective in achieving PVI in paroxysmal AF patients. The arrhythmia-free survival is comparable.

The primary study objective was to evaluate whether total IVF volume differs for emergency department (ED) septic shock patients receiving POCUS versus no POCUS. Methods We conducted a retrospective observational cohort study from 7/1/2018 to 8/31/2021 of atraumatic adult ED patients with septic shock. We agreed upon a priori variables and defined septic shock as lactate ≥4 and hypotension (SBP <90 or MAP <65). A sample size of 300 patients would provide 85% power to detect an IVF difference of 500 milliliters between POCUS and non-POCUS cohorts. Data are reported as frequencies, median (IQR), and associations from bivariate logistic models. Results 304 patients met criteria and 26% (78/304) underwent POCUS. Cardiac POCUS demonstrated reduced ejection fraction in 15.4% of patients. Lung ultrasound showed normal findings in 53% of patients. The POCUS vs. non-POCUS cohorts had statistically significant differences for the following variables: higher median lactate (6.7 [IQR 5.2–8.7] vs. 5.6], p = 0.003), lower systolic blood pressure (77.5 [IQR 61–86] vs. 85.0, p < 0.001), more vasopressor use (51% vs. 34%, p = 0.006), and more positive pressure ventilation (38% vs. 24%, p = 0.017). However, there were no statistically significant differences between POCUS and non-POCUS cohorts in total IVF volume ml/kg (33.02 vs. 32.1, p = 0.47), new oxygen requirement (68% vs. 59%, p = 0.16), ED death (3% vs. 4%, p = 0.15), or hospital death (31% vs. 27%, p = 0.48). There were similar distributions of lactate, total fluids, and vasopressors in patients with CHF and severe renal failure. Conclusions Among ED patients with septic shock, POCUS was more likely to be used in sicker patients. Patients who had POCUS were given similar volume of crystalloids although these patients were more critically ill. There were no differences in new oxygen requirement or mortality in the POCUS group compared to the non-POCUS group.", + "claimed_authors": [ + "E. Ablordeppey", + "Amy R.

The joint detection of high-energy neutrinos and gravitational waves would provide insight into cosmic processes, from the dynamics of compact object mergers and stellar collapses to the mechanisms driving relativistic outflows. The joint detection of multiple cosmic messengers can also elevate the significance of the common observation even when some or all of the constituent messengers are sub-threshold, i.e. not significant enough to declare their detection individually. Using data from the LIGO, Virgo, and IceCube observatories, including sub-threshold events, we searched for common sources of gravitational waves and high-energy neutrinos during the third observing run of Advanced LIGO and Advanced Virgo detectors. Our search did not identify significant joint sources. We derive constraints on the rate densities of joint sources. Our results constrain the isotropic neutrino emission from gravitational-wave sources for very high values of the total energy emitted in neutrinos (> $10^{52} - 10^{54}$ erg).", + "claimed_authors": [ + "The IceCube Collaboration", + "R.

There are now many platforms and options available for preregistration, ranging from websites that allow researchers to upload and share preregistrations (e.g., the Center for Open Science AsPredicted prospero], and ClinicalTrials.gov) to the formal review and publication of registered reports (RRs) (10,11), wherein methods and analyses are reviewed prior to data collection and the results are published regardless of the outcome if the reviewed methods are followed. RRs have a long history in psychological research (12), with a type of RR started at the European Journal for Para-psychology in the 1970s (this journal is no longer in operation); the Lancet initiated articles that included protocols of proposed research in 1997. Recent results suggest that the bene fi ts of preregistration are starting to bear fruit, with evidence that readers trust empirical research fi ndings more when they were preregistered (13), that the rigor of the science in RRs is rated more highly (14), and that preregistration improves the estimation of effect sizes and helps reduce the publication bias for positive results (16).", + "claimed_authors": [ + "D.

Sparked by concerns regarding replication and reproducibility, open research practices including preprints, preregistration, Registered Reports, open materials, code, and data aim to change the research landscape by improving the robustness and credibility of findings (Pennington 2023). Peer Community In Registered Reports (PCI RR) is a new publishing platform that integrates all of these open science practices: researchers submit a Stage 1 Registered Report through a preprint server, and after undergoing peer-review and receiving in principle acceptance (IPA), this Stage 1 protocol is then preregistered. At Stage 2, researchers append their results and discussion to the approved protocol, along with open materials, code, and data and, upon acceptance, this final preprint is then ‘recommended’ to the research community (see Eder and Frings 2021). The aim of this modified review process is to mitigate biased research practices and publication processes and, in this respect, Registered Reports appear to be working (Chambers and Tzavella 2022). One benefit for authors submitting through the PCI RR publishing route is that they can chose to publish their work in any ‘PCI friendly’ journal without the need for additional peer review. Addiction Research & Theory is one such journal offering this publishing route, committing to accept Stage 2 manuscripts that have received a positive final recommendation through PCI RR that meet the journal’s scope and formatting requirements (see Pennington and Heim 2022). As Handling Editor, I am pleased to announce that ART has published its first Registered Report through this route. Karhulahti, Vahlo et al. (2022) assessed how ontologically diverse screening instruments for gaming-related health problems differ in identifying associated problem groups. In addition to championing the authors adherence to open science practices, the goal of this editorial is to document the value of open data that is promoted by the Registered Report publishing model. I believe strongly that it is important to document the early history of open science practices and researcher’s experiences as they navigate them, particularly to overcome some of the perceived barriers associated with them and to further encourage uptake (see Norris et al. 2022). Below I first highlight the research findings by Karhulahti and colleagues and the acceleration of recommended research directions that stemmed from this team’s adoption of open code and data, before outlining more generally the positive changes we are observing as a result of the scientific credibility revolution. In their Registered Report, Karhulahti et al. administered four central screening instruments (GAS7, IGDT10, GDT, and THL1) in gaming disorder measurement to a large, nationally representative sample of Finnish participants and showed that these instruments revealed different prevalence rates and considerable heterogeneity in group overlap. Based on these findings, they suggest that due to their foundational ontological diversity these instruments might measure different problems (or other constructs) to varying degrees. Their article concludes with recommendations for researchers to (a) define their construct of interest (e.g. whether they are measuring gaming disorder or gaming-related problems) and (b) seek evidence for good construct validity to ensure accurate measurement. By sharing their code, data, and materials on the Open Science Framework repository, an independent team of researchers were able to follow one of Karhulahti et al.’s proposed future directions for this research: ‘to chart further ontological differences and similarities between constructs and/or instruments’ using an item-based network model. Billieux and Fournier (2022a) conducted this exploratory model using all of the items from the four gaming disorder assessment tools in the original study to assess potential communalities among these items. This network analysis indicated very high density of connections among all items with the authors suggesting that ‘these instruments are not reliably distinct and that their content strongly overlaps, therefore measuring substantially homogeneous constructs after all’ (pp. 1). Despite the different findings between the two teams, the authors agreed that the screening of gaming disorder requires improvement and harmonization with regards to its measurement. Moreover, Billieux and Fournier highlighted the benefits of open science practices in driving cumulative science forward. Karhulahti, Adamkovi c et al. (2022) then reanalyzed their data, again using network analysis, and wrote a reply to Billieux and Fournier. As the original dataset al.so included measures from non-gaming constructs, Karhulahti et al. decided to further test whether network overlap might also occur with other constructs – namely anxiety, depression, and bullying – that are ontologically distinct from gaming disorder. Given that these constructs do not share conceptual origins, Karhulahti et al. theorized that there should (following Billieux and Fournier’s argument) be little overlap between the items. However, their results suggested that there was indeed notable overlap between these constructs. In a parallel analysis, they also investigated whether a singlefactor or four-factor structure was supported by this model, with the findings revealing that the optimal solution has", + "claimed_authors": [ + "C.

Our analysis showed that, although one of the RR types aligned with many of the documentation suggestions contained in the guidelines, none of them covered the guidelines comprehensively. The study also highlights limitations in OSF RR template customization. Conclusion: Despite progress in ESE, planning and documenting experiments still lack rigor, compromising reproducibility.

Key recommendations include maintaining awareness of the issues with assumption tests (while recognizing they can be useful), using appropriate combinations of diagnostic methods (including visualization and effect sizes) while recognizing their limitations, and distinguishing between testing and checking assumptions.

Our approach involves generating a single realisation of the initial power spectrum of density perturbations and studying how truncation of this power spectrum on scales larger than L_cut affects the structure of dark matter haloes at z=0. In particular, we have examined the cases of L_cut = f_cut L_box with f_cut=1 (i.e. no truncation), 1/2, 1/3 and 1/4. In common with previous studies, we find that the suppression of long wavelength perturbations reduces the strength of clustering, as measured by a suppression of the 2-point correlation function xi(r), and reduces the numbers of the most massive haloes, as reflected in the depletion of the high mass end of the mass function n(M). Interestingly, we find that truncation has little impact on the internal properties of haloes. The masses of high mass haloes decrease in a systematic manner as L_cut is reduced, but the distribution of concentrations is unaffected. On the other hand, the median spin parameter is ~50% lower in runs with f_cut<1. We argue that this is an imprint of the linear growth phase of the halo's angular momentum by tidal torquing, and that the absence of any measurable trend in concentration and the weak trend observed in halo shape reflect the importance of virialisation and complex mass accretion histories for these quantities. These results are of interest for studies that require high mass resolution and statistical samples of simulated haloes, such as simulations of the population of first stars.

However, there is little consensus on how large pilot studies need to be, and some suggest inflating estimates to adjust for the lack of precision when planning the definitive RCT.MethodsWe use a simulation approach to illustrate the sampling distribution of the standard deviation for continuous outcomes and the event rate for binary outcomes. We present the impact of increasing the pilot sample size on the precision and bias of these estimates, and predicted power under three realistic scenarios. We also illustrate the consequences of using a confidence interval argument to inflate estimates so the required power is achieved with a pre-specified level of confidence. We limit our attention to external pilot and feasibility studies prior to a two-parallel-balanced-group superiority RCT.ResultsFor normally distributed outcomes, the relative gain in precision of the pooled standard deviation (SDp) is less than 10% (for each five subjects added per group) once the total sample size is 70. For true proportions between 0.1 and 0.5, we find the gain in precision for each five subjects added to the pilot sample is less than 5% once the sample size is 60. Adjusting the required sample sizes for the imprecision in the pilot study estimates can result in excessively large definitive RCTs and also requires a pilot sample size of 60 to 90 for the true effect sizes considered here.ConclusionsWe recommend that an external pilot study has at least 70 measured subjects (35 per group) when estimating the SDp for a continuous outcome. If the event rate in an intervention group needs to be estimated by the pilot then a total of 60 to 100 subjects is required. Hence if the primary outcome is binary a total of at least 120 subjects (60 in each group) may be required in the pilot trial.

Our approach involves generating a single realisation of the initial power spectrum of density perturbations and studying how truncation of this power spectrum on scales larger than L_cut affects the structure of dark matter haloes at z=0. In particular, we have examined the cases of L_cut = f_cut L_box with f_cut=1 (i.e. no truncation), 1/2, 1/3 and 1/4. In common with previous studies, we find that the suppression of long wavelength perturbations reduces the strength of clustering, as measured by a suppression of the 2-point correlation function xi(r), and reduces the numbers of the most massive haloes, as reflected in the depletion of the high mass end of the mass function n(M). Interestingly, we find that truncation has little impact on the internal properties of haloes. The masses of high mass haloes decrease in a systematic manner as L_cut is reduced, but the distribution of concentrations is unaffected. On the other hand, the median spin parameter is ~50% lower in runs with f_cut<1. We argue that this is an imprint of the linear growth phase of the halo's angular momentum by tidal torquing, and that the absence of any measurable trend in concentration and the weak trend observed in halo shape reflect the importance of virialisation and complex mass accretion histories for these quantities. These results are of interest for studies that require high mass resolution and statistical samples of simulated haloes, such as simulations of the population of first stars.

However, cascading power outages do follow patterns, some of which are useful in understanding and reducing blackout risk. This paper describes a method by which the data from many cascading failure simulations can be transformed into a graph-based model of influences that provides actionable information about the many ways that cascades propagate in a particular system. The resulting \"influence graph\" model is Markovian, in that component outage probabilities depend only on the outages that occurred in the prior generation. To validate the model we compare the distribution of cascade sizes resulting from $n-2$ contingencies in a $2896$ branch test case to cascade sizes in the influence graph. The two distributions are remarkably similar. In addition, we derive an equation with which one can quickly identify modifications to the proposed system that will substantially reduce cascade propagation.

Methods: A total of 160 adults, including 70 healthy volunteers and 90 patients with chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS), were recruited for this study. Participants were further categorized into “fair ETF” and “poor ETF” groups based on their scores on the Eustachian Tube Dysfunction Questionnaire (ETDQ-7). Eustachian tube function was assessed using both the nine-step test and the ETDQ-7. The diagnostic accuracy of the maximal peak pressure difference (MPD) from the nine-step test was evaluated, using an ETDQ-7 score of ≥14 as the reference standard. Discriminative ability was analyzed using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves. Results: An MPD value of ≤4 yielded an area under the ROC curve (AUC) of 0.619, indicating moderate discriminative ability in the Taiwanese population. The median MPD value on the nine-step test was 9.5 (interquartile range [IQR]: 4.5–14.0) in participants with an ETDQ-7 score of <14, compared to a median MPD value of 7.5 (IQR: 2.5–12.0) in those with an ETDQ-7 score of ≥14 (p = 0.033).

Sources of such deformation may relate to processes such as magma inflow and outflow, motion and phase changes of hydrothermal fluids or magma volatiles, heat transfer from magmatic bodies and heat-mining from geothermal extraction. The Hengill area, in southwest Iceland, hosts two active volcanic systems, Hengill and Hrómundartindur, and two high-temperature geothermal power plants, Hellisheiði and Nesjavellir. Using a combination of geodetic data sets (GNSS and InSAR; Global Navigation Satellite Systems and Interferometry Synthetic Aperture Radar, respectively) and a non-linear inversion scheme to estimate the optimal analytical model parameters, we investigate the ground deformation between 2017–2018. Due to other ongoing deformation processes in the area, such as plate motion, subsidence in the two geothermal production fields, and deep-seated source of contraction since 2006, we estimate 2017–2018 difference velocities by subtracting background deformation, determined from data spanning 2015–2017 (InSAR) or 2009–2017 (GNSS). This method highlights changes in ground deformation observed in 2017–2018 compared to prior years: uplift signal of ∼10 km diameter located in the eastern part of the Hengill area, and geothermal production-related temporal changes in deformation near Húsmúli, in the western part of the Hengill area. We find an inflation source located between the Hengill and Hrómundartindur volcanic complexes, lasting for ∼5 months, with a maximum uplift of ∼12 mm. Our model inversions give a source at depth of ∼6–7 km, located approximately in the same crustal volume as an inferred contracting source in 2006–2017, within the local brittle-ductile transition zone. No significant changes were observed in local seismicity, borehole temperatures and pressures during the uplift episode. These transient inflation and deflation sources are located ∼3 km NW from a source of non-eruptive uplift in the area (1993–1999).

Heart rate was recorded in 50 adult healthy subjects for 50 min in a seated position. Eight standard HRV parameters were calculated from five evenly spaced 5 min intervals. Stability was assessed by comparing the mean values of HRV parameters between the consecutive five test–retest measurements. Absolute reliability was determined by standard error of measurement, and relative reliability by intraclass correlation coefficient. The sample size required to detect a mean difference of ≥30% of between-subject standard deviation was estimated. As expected, almost all HRV parameters had poor absolute reliability but most HRV parameters had substantial to excellent relative reliability. We found statistically significant differences in almost all HRV parameters between the first 20 min and the last 30 min of the session. The estimated sample size ranged from 19 to 300 subjects for the first 20 min and from 36 to 194 subjects for the last 30 min of the session, depending on the selected HRV parameter.

The key argument of this study is that examining the actual consumption behaviour of organic foods is the ideal approach towards investigating purchase intention drivers as a proxy for consumption. In response to the green gap, the theory of planned behaviour is expanded by including the dimension of temporal orientation, i.e., a future orientation that has an influential but unrecognised effect on many human behaviours. In contrast to the prevalent operationalisation of attitude, the term is defined as a product-specific attitude which is markedly dissimilar to the environmental attitude in its orientations. The Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling technique was used to analyse the research model.

The concept of “zone of tolerance” for the service disruptions was encapsulated to account for different capabilities of the households to endure the adverse impacts. The model was tested and validated in the context of power outages through survey data from the residents of Harris County in the aftermath of Hurricane Harvey in 2017. The results show that households’ need for utility service, preparedness level, the existence of substitutes, possession of social capital, previous experience with disasters, and risk communication affect the zone of tolerance within which households cope with service outages. In addition, sociodemographic characteristics, such as race and residence type, are shown to influence the zone of tolerance, and hence the level of hardship experienced by the affected households. The results reveal that population subgroups show variations in the tolerance level of service disruptions. The findings highlight the importance of integrating social dimensions into the resilience planning of infrastructure systems.

Existing research seldomly concentrated on college students and their PEB. This study aims to address the gap in understanding PEB among college students.\n\n\nDesign/methodology/approach\nThis study constructed an integrated model combining the theory of planned behavior (TPB) and the value-belief-norm (VBN) theory, with the novel addition of environmental risk perception. Through an empirical study involving 844 college students, this research analyzed the data with the structural model.\n\n\nFindings\nThe authors identified that environmental values, attitudes, perceived behavioral control, subjective norms and risk perception play crucial roles in shaping PEB. This study also revealed age-related differences, highlighting that older students might be less influenced by attitudes and subjective norms due to more established habits. Findings underscore the importance of fostering PEB through environmental education, promotion of low-carbon lifestyle choices and incentives. This investigation not only enriches the theoretical framework for PEB but also offers practical insights for policymakers and educators to enhance sustainable practices among the youth.\n\n\nResearch limitations/implications\nThough the authors offer valuable findings, this research has two key limitations: the use of observational data for hypothesis testing, which weakens causal inference, and the collection of data through questionnaires, which may be biased by social desirability. Respondents of self-report tend to behave in the socially desired ways. Consequently, they usually exaggerate their pro-environmental intention or PEB. To comprehend the influencing aspects more thoroughly, future research should consider incorporating experimental methods and objective data, such as digitalized data.\n\n\nPractical implications\nThe findings provide valuable evidence for guiding college students’ PEB, including strengthening environmental education, promoting of low-carbon fashion and providing incentives for PEBs.\n\n\nOriginality/value\nFirst, the authors examine the internal factors influencing PEB among Chinese university students within the “dual-carbon” initiative framework. Second, this research pioneers the use of structural equation modeling to merge TPB and VBN theories, offering a predictive model for university students’ PEB. Third, the authors introduce “environmental risk perception” as a novel variable derived from both TPB and VBN, enhancing the model’s explanatory power.\n", - "claimed_authors": [ - "Yu Zhang", - "Qian Du", - "Yali Huang", - "Yanying Mao", - "Liudan Jiao" - ], - "claimed_title": "Decoding determinants of pro-environmental behaviors of higher education students: insights for sustainable future", - "claimed_venue": "International Journal of Sustainability in Higher Education", - "claimed_year": 2024, - "primary_pointer": "https://doi.org/10.1108/ijshe-03-2024-0166" - }, - "details": "query-relevance 0.133 < 0.3 (query='How do planned statistical power estimates in pre-registered studies compare to ', candidate_title='Decoding determinants of pro-environmental behaviors of higher education students: insights for sustainable future')", - "failed_at": "2026-05-07T18:54:38Z", - "reason": "query_irrelevant" - }, - { - "candidate": { - "backend": "arxiv", - "claimed_abstract": "Robust simulation is essential for reliable operation and planning of transmission and distribution power grids.

Approaches based on Deep Artificial Neural Networks (DANN) are very popular in our days. Depending on the learning task, the exact form of DANNs is determined via their multi-layer architecture, activation functions and the so-called loss function. However, for a majority of deep learning approaches based on DANNs, the kernel structure of neural signal processing remains the same, where the node response is encoded as a linear superposition of neural activity, while the non-linearity is triggered by the activation functions. In the current paper, we suggest to analyze the neural signal processing in DANNs from the point of view of homogeneous chaos theory as known from polynomial chaos expansion (PCE). From the PCE perspective, the (linear) response on each node of a DANN could be seen as a $1^{st}$ degree multi-variate polynomial of single neurons from the previous layer, i.e. linear weighted sum of monomials. From this point of view, the conventional DANN structure relies implicitly (but erroneously) on a Gaussian distribution of neural signals. Additionally, this view revels that by design DANNs do not necessarily fulfill any orthogonality or orthonormality condition for a majority of data-driven applications. Therefore, the prevailing handling of neural signals in DANNs could lead to redundant representation as any neural signal could contain some partial information from other neural signals. To tackle that challenge, we suggest to employ the data-driven generalization of PCE theory known as arbitrary polynomial chaos (aPC) to construct a corresponding multi-variate orthonormal representations on each node of a DANN to obtain Deep arbitrary polynomial chaos neural networks.", + "claimed_authors": [ + "Sergey Oladyshkin", + "Timothy Praditia", + "Ilja Kröker", + "Farid Mohammadi", + "Wolfgang Nowak", + "Sebastian Otte" + ], + "claimed_title": "The Deep Arbitrary Polynomial Chaos Neural Network or how Deep Artificial Neural Networks could benefit from Data-Driven Homogeneous Chaos Theory", + "claimed_venue": "arXiv", + "claimed_year": 2023, + "primary_pointer": "2306.14753" + }, + "details": "query-relevance 0.286 < 0.3 (query='Predicting Molecular Dipole Moments with Graph Neural Networks chemistry', candidate_title='The Deep Arbitrary Polynomial Chaos Neural Network or how Deep Artificial Neural Networks could benefit from Data-Driven Homogeneous Chaos Theory')", + "failed_at": "2026-05-08T19:40:29Z", + "reason": "query_irrelevant" + }, + { + "candidate": { + "backend": "arxiv", + "claimed_abstract": "Providing a model that achieves a strong predictive performance and is simultaneously interpretable by humans is one of the most difficult challenges in machine learning research due to the conflicting nature of these two objectives. To address this challenge, we propose a modification of the radial basis function neural network model by equipping its Gaussian kernel with a learnable precision matrix. We show that precious information is contained in the spectrum of the precision matrix that can be extracted once the training of the model is completed. In particular, the eigenvectors explain the directions of maximum sensitivity of the model revealing the active subspace and suggesting potential applications for supervised dimensionality reduction. At the same time, the eigenvectors highlight the relationship in terms of absolute variation between the input and the latent variables, thereby allowing us to extract a ranking of the input variables based on their importance to the prediction task enhancing the model interpretability. We conducted numerical experiments for regression, classification, and feature selection tasks, comparing our model against popular machine learning models, the state-of-the-art deep learning-based embedding feature selection techniques, and a transformer model for tabular data. Our results demonstrate that the proposed model does not only yield an attractive prediction performance compared to the competitors but also provides meaningful and interpretable results that potentially could assist the decision-making process in real-world applications.

Furthermore, the carboxylate substitution shifts polarity centers, amplifying the molecular dipole moment by 10-fold. This induces a giant built-in electric field, enabling ultrafast electron-transfer process (ca. 0.31 ps) in the hPTB7-Th:PCBM bulk heterojunction. Consequently, the hPTB7-Th:PCBM-based bulk heterojunction nanoparticles exhibit excellent photocatalytic activity, achieving an optimal hydrogen evolution rate of 111.5 mmol g-1 h-1, four times over the ester-based counterpart (PTB7-Th:PCBM). Moreover, the electrostatic stability imparted by the carboxylates endows hPTB7-Th:PCBM with outstanding operational stability, maintaining 81% of its initial hydrogen evolution rate after 100 h operation. This result places it among the state-of-the-art organic photovoltaic bulk heterojunction photocatalysts in terms of stability.

The variation of pH by additions of acid or base to solution 1 leads to significant changes in absorption and fluorescence spectra, therefore, 1 can be of interest as a solvatochromic probe, being sensitive to acidic/base properties of the environment.

To mitigate this predicament, we propose CMAL, a Cross-Modal Associative Learning framework with anchor points detection and cross-modal associative learning for VLP. Specifically, we first respectively embed visual objects and textual tokens into separate hypersphere spaces to learn intra-modal hidden features, and then design a cross-modal associative prompt layer to perform anchor point masking and swap feature filling for constructing a hybrid cross-modal associative prompt. Afterwards, we exploit a unified semantic encoder to learn their cross-modal interactive features for context adaptation. Finally, we design an associative mapping classification layer to learn potential associative mappings between modalities at anchor points, within which we develop a fresh self-supervised associative mapping classification task to boost CMAL's performance. Experimental results verify the effectiveness of CMAL, showing that it achieves competitive performance against previous CMCL-based methods on four common downstream vision-and-language tasks, with significantly fewer corpus.

We prove the uniqueness of VCS and AECS for almost all specified terminal times, thereby enhancing their applicability beyond previously recognized cases.

Our analysis reveals substantial differences between VCS and AECS in linear systems with symmetric and skew-symmetric transition matrices.

Additionally, we prove that a sequence generated by a projected gradient method for computing VCS and AECS converges linearly to both measures under several assumptions. Finally, evaluations on brain networks modeled via Laplacian dynamics using real data reveal contrasting evaluation tendencies and correlations for VCS and AECS, with AECS favoring brain regions associated with cognitive and motor functions, while VCS emphasizes sensory and emotional regions.", - "claimed_authors": [ - "Kazuhiro Sato", - "Ryohei Kawamura" - ], - "claimed_title": "Uniqueness Analysis of Controllability Scores and Their Application to Brain Networks", - "claimed_venue": "arXiv", - "claimed_year": 2024, - "primary_pointer": "2408.03023" - }, - "details": "query-relevance 0.150 < 0.3 (query='How does the intrinsic organization of human brain functional networks change wh', candidate_title='Uniqueness Analysis of Controllability Scores and Their Application to Brain Networks')", - "failed_at": "2026-05-07T18:27:54Z", - "reason": "query_irrelevant" - }, - { - "candidate": { - "backend": "arxiv", - "claimed_abstract": "Persistence modules are a central algebraic object arising in topological data analysis.

However, research is yet to identify its consistent and generalisable biomarkers. Here, we analysed electroencephalography data recorded in 36 volunteers during 5-minute sessions of noxious hot and innocuous warm water immersion using network-based statistics and graph theory-based analysis. Our results revealed a brain-wide reorganisation of functional connectivity during tonic pain, marked by a global shift from segregation to integration. This shift was characterised by a transition from intra- to internetwork communication, with the Somato-Motor (SomMot) network playing a pivotal role. During innocuous warmth, the SomMot network exhibited significantly higher functional specialisation for localised sensory processing. During noxious heat, however, it shifted to an integrative coordinator, a finding reinforced by a significant discrepancy in global clustering coefficient when intranetwork connections were excluded. We also found that psychological traits modulated global network inferences (GNIs) in distinct, clinically relevant ways: pain catastrophising was positively associated with network segregation and integration during pain, whereas anxiety was negatively associated with segregation and integration during innocuous warmth. Notably, a machine learning model using these GNIs achieved 86% accuracy in classifying noxious heat from innocuous warmth. Together, our findings elucidate the transformation from segregated processing to integrated network dynamics induced by tonic pain, characterised by a transition in the SomMot network functioning as an integrator. Critically, global network inferences may serve as valuable predictors of pain experiences, highlighting their translational potential in pain neuroscience.", - "claimed_authors": [ - "Wenxin Su", - "C.

Here we investigate the hierarchical modular (or \"modules-within-modules\") decomposition of human brain functional networks, measured using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) in 18 healthy volunteers under no-task or resting conditions. We used a customized template to extract networks with more than 1800 regional nodes, and we applied a fast algorithm to identify nested modular structure at several hierarchical levels. We used mutual information, 0 < I < 1, to estimate the similarity of community structure of networks in different subjects, and to identify the individual network that is most representative of the group. Results show that human brain functional networks have a hierarchical modular organization with a fair degree of similarity between subjects, I=0.63. The largest 5 modules at the highest level of the hierarchy were medial occipital, lateral occipital, central, parieto-frontal and fronto-temporal systems; occipital modules demonstrated less sub-modular organization than modules comprising regions of multimodal association cortex. Connector nodes and hubs, with a key role in inter-modular connectivity, were also concentrated in association cortical areas. We conclude that methods are available for hierarchical modular decomposition of large numbers of high resolution brain functional networks using computationally expedient algorithms.

In behavior narrative review, we compare three conditions characterized by psychotic experiences (schizophrenia, substance-use disorder and sensory-deprivation) searching for links between their phenomenological features and the mechanisms underlying their onset. Clinically, psychotic experiences are characterized by the reciprocal contamination of world- and self-related contents, termed 'world/self ambivalence'. Neuroimaging evidence suggests that the imbalance between stimuli-, self-, and attention-related functional networks (visual/auditory, default-mode, and salience network respectively) assumes central relevance in all the conditions considered. Phenomenology and neurobiology were thus interrelated in light of the reviewed literature, identifying two key neuronal mechanisms which may lead to world/self ambivalence. First, psychotic experiences are associated with the relative dominance of one network over the other (default-mode over auditory/visual networks, or vice-versa), prompting an excess of internal or external pressure to the experienced ambivalence between world and self. Second, an altered salience network resting-state functional connectivity could generate a dysregulation of the attentive fluctuations from self- to world-related activity, thus blurring the boundary between the environment and oneself, labelled the 'world/self boundary'.", - "summary_grounded_pdf": false, - "verification_log": { - "final_url": "https://linkinghub.elsevier.com/retrieve/pii/S0925492720300408", - "http_status": 200, - "pdf_sample_score": null, - "query_relevance_score": 0.35, - "redirect_chain": [ - "https://doi.org/10.1016/j.pscychresns.2020.111068" - ], - "summary_grounding_score": 1.0, - "title_token_overlap_score": 1.0, - "url_resolves": true, - "verified_at": "2026-05-07T18:27:52Z" - } - }, - { - "bibliographic_info": { - "authors": [ - "Taeyi You", - "Taekwan Lee", - "G.

Here, we show that social isolation leads to reduced segregation of brain networks, notably affecting the olfactory and visual networks. Conversely, the enriched environment maintains network segregation while enhancing higher order sensory and visual cortical functions. Additionally, enriched mice exhibited an improved sensorimotor functional response. Our combined use of sensory stimulus-evoked BOLD fMRI and resting-state fMRI revealed changes at local and global levels, providing a comprehensive perspective. This expands our understanding of how environmental factors influence brain functionality and highlights the importance of physical and social cues - such as tactile, visual, and olfactory - that may provide therapeutic insights for psychiatric disorders.

Knowledge graphs (KGs), which capture vast amounts of facts in a structured format, offer a reliable source of knowledge for reasoning. Nevertheless, existing KG-based LLM reasoning methods only treat KGs as factual knowledge bases and overlook the importance of their structural information for reasoning. In this paper, we propose a novel method called reasoning on graphs (RoG) that synergizes LLMs with KGs to enable faithful and interpretable reasoning. Specifically, we present a planning-retrieval-reasoning framework, where RoG first generates relation paths grounded by KGs as faithful plans. These plans are then used to retrieve valid reasoning paths from the KGs for LLMs to conduct faithful reasoning. Furthermore, RoG not only distills knowledge from KGs to improve the reasoning ability of LLMs through training but also allows seamless integration with any arbitrary LLMs during inference. Extensive experiments on two benchmark KGQA datasets demonstrate that RoG achieves state-of-the-art performance on KG reasoning tasks and generates faithful and interpretable reasoning results.", - "claimed_authors": [ - "Linhao Luo", - "Yuan-Fang Li", - "Gholamreza Haffari", - "Shirui Pan" - ], - "claimed_title": "Reasoning on Graphs: Faithful and Interpretable Large Language Model Reasoning", - "claimed_venue": "International Conference on Learning Representations", - "claimed_year": 2023, - "primary_pointer": "https://doi.org/10.48550/arXiv.2310.01061" - }, - "details": "query-relevance 0.167 < 0.3 (query='Evaluating the Impact of Code Duplication on LLM Code Understanding computer sci', candidate_title='Reasoning on Graphs: Faithful and Interpretable Large Language Model Reasoning')", - "failed_at": "2026-05-07T19:19:09Z", - "reason": "query_irrelevant" - }, - { - "candidate": { - "backend": "semantic_scholar", - "claimed_abstract": "Reasoning in large language models has long been a central research focus, and recent studies employing reinforcement learning (RL) have introduced diverse methods that yield substantial performance gains with minimal or even no external supervision.

However, these breakthroughs are predominantly observed for the mathematically strong Qwen2.5 series on benchmarks such as MATH-500, AMC, and AIME, and seldom transfer to models like Llama, which warrants a more in-depth investigation. In this work, our empirical analysis reveals that pre-training on massive web-scale corpora leaves Qwen2.5 susceptible to data contamination in widely used benchmarks. Consequently, conclusions derived from contaminated benchmarks on Qwen2.5 series may be unreliable. To obtain trustworthy evaluation results, we introduce a generator that creates fully clean arithmetic problems of arbitrary length and difficulty, dubbed RandomCalculation. Using this leakage-free dataset, we show that only accurate reward signals yield steady improvements that surpass the base model’s performance boundary in mathematical reasoning, whereas random or incorrect rewards do not. Moreover, we conduct more fine-grained analyses to elucidate the factors underlying the different performance observed on the MATH-500 and RandomCalculation benchmarks.

PACIFIC produces benchmark variants with clearly defined expected outputs, enabling straightforward and reliable evaluation through simple output comparisons.

We validate our framework by generating a suite of benchmarks spanning a range of difficulty levels and evaluating multiple state-of-the-art LLMs. Our results demonstrate that PACIFIC can produce increasingly challenging benchmarks that effectively differentiate instruction-following and dry running capabilities, even among advanced models.

Open-source models offer alternatives; however, they frequently fall short in quality/correctness, largely due to limited, high-quality RTL code data essential for effective training and generalization. This paper proposes RTL++, a first-of-its-kind LLM-assisted method for RTL code generation that utilizes graph representations of code structures to enhance the quality of generated code.

By focusing on data generation through graph representations, RTL++ addresses the limitations of previous approaches that rely solely on code and suffer from lack of diversity.

Although supervised verifiers offer mitigation, they incur prohibitive annotation costs and suffer from domain fragility. Consequently, recent research has pivoted to the training-free setting. However, existing methods--such as Self-Consistency or LLM-as-a-Judge--remain hampered by systematic bias (consensus on hallucinations) and symbolic blindness (inability to simulate execution states).

Specifically, DPC employs a SLICER and a TESTER agent to collaboratively construct a Minimal Distinguishing Database (MDD)--an adversarial, fully observable micro-environment engineered to expose logical discrepancies between candidates. To break the self-correction bias, a SOLVER agent then verifies the SQL candidates by cross-referencing their execution against a parallel Python/Pandas solution. By validating execution consistency between declarative (SQL) and imperative (Python) paradigms, DPC robustly discriminates correct logic from systematic hallucinations.

This question is directly relevant to model providers, who serve hundreds of millions of users daily, and to governmental regulators, who seek to prevent harms. To answer this questions, we make three contributions.

This has been interpreted as evidence that base models have a larger reasoning boundary. We argue that on tasks with discrete answer spaces, such as math with numeric outputs, Pass@k at large k reflects the increasingly higher chance of success in the limit of the number of trials rather than genuine reasoning, and can therefore be misleading. We propose Cover@tau, which measures the fraction of problems that a model can solve for which at least a tau proportion of completions are correct.

We present a principled Bayesian evaluation framework that replaces Pass$@k$ and average accuracy over $N$ trials (avg$@N$) with posterior estimates of a model's underlying success probability and credible intervals, yielding stable rankings and a transparent decision rule for differences. Evaluation outcomes are modeled as categorical (not just 0/1) with a Dirichlet prior, giving closed-form expressions for the posterior mean and uncertainty of any weighted rubric and enabling the use of prior evidence when appropriate. Theoretically, under a uniform prior, the Bayesian posterior mean is order-equivalent to average accuracy (Pass$@1$), explaining its empirical robustness while adding principled uncertainty. Empirically, in simulations with known ground-truth success rates and on AIME'24/'25, HMMT'25, and BrUMO'25, the posterior-based procedure achieves faster convergence and greater rank stability than Pass$@k$ and recent variants, enabling reliable comparisons at far smaller sample counts. The framework clarifies when observed gaps are statistically meaningful (non-overlapping credible intervals) versus noise, and it naturally extends to graded, rubric-based evaluations. Together, these results recommend replacing Pass$@k$ for LLM evaluation and ranking with a posterior-based, compute-efficient protocol that unifies binary and non-binary evaluation while making uncertainty explicit.
