A new preprint pairs quantum convolutional networks with path signature kernels to tackle reparameterisation invariance in time series classification.
New arXiv paper shows low-rank adapters can dial up or suppress AI model personality traits like neuroticism and agreeableness, with measurable effects on safet
New preprint cuts encrypted Transformer bootstraps 2.65× with 1.2% perplexity cost, bringing privacy-preserving AI inference closer to practical real-world depl
xDECAF, a browser-based tool checking data flow diagrams against security constraints, shipped as a public preprint with a reusable dataset of over 20 models.
A July 2026 preprint shows VLMs lose localization accuracy in a single forward pass inside diffusion editing pipelines, affecting AI image tool builders and use
FootsiesGym, a July 8 arXiv preprint, turns a minimalist 2D fighting game into an open-source RL benchmark for imperfect-information games that runs on standard
A new arXiv preprint proposes random sampling maps that let models trained on small inputs handle larger ones they never saw — with explicit generalisation rate
World model spatial reasoning scores collapse from 0.90 to 0.27 when the goal is hidden, exposing instruction leakage — a prompt-cheating flaw the authors diagn
New arXiv preprint 'idiobionics' warns that sensors and AI controls in smart prosthetic limbs could create exploitable privacy threat vectors for users.
