The Stochastic Gap: A Markovian Framework for Pre-Deployment Reliability and Oversight-Cost Auditing in Agentic Artificial Intelligence
Agentic artificial intelligence (AI) in organizations is a sequential decision problem constrained by reliability and oversight cost. When deterministic workflows are replaced by stochastic policies over actions and too...
Retrieval Improvements Do Not Guarantee Better Answers: A Study of RAG for AI Policy QA
Retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) systems are increasingly used to analyze complex policy documents, but achieving sufficient reliability for expert usage remains challenging in domains characterized by dense legal l...
EndoVGGT: GNN-Enhanced Depth Estimation for Surgical 3D Reconstruction
Accurate 3D reconstruction of deformable soft tissues is essential for surgical robotic perception. However, low-texture surfaces, specular highlights, and instrument occlusions often fragment geometric continuity, posi...
Chameleon: Episodic Memory for Long-Horizon Robotic Manipulation
Robotic manipulation often requires memory: occlusion and state changes can make decision-time observations perceptually aliased, making action selection non-Markovian at the observation level because the same observati...
VFIG: Vectorizing Complex Figures in SVG with Vision-Language Models
Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG) are an essential format for technical illustration and digital design, offering precise resolution independence and flexible semantic editability. In practice, however, original vector sou...
Completeness of Unbounded Best-First Minimax and Descent Minimax
In this article, we focus on search algorithms for two-player perfect information games, whose objective is to determine the best possible strategy, and ideally a winning strategy. Unfortunately, some search algorithms...
Anti-I2V: Safeguarding your photos from malicious image-to-video generation
Advances in diffusion-based video generation models, while significantly improving human animation, poses threats of misuse through the creation of fake videos from a specific person's photo and text prompts. Recent eff...
The Free-Market Algorithm: Self-Organizing Optimization for Open-Ended Complex Systems
We introduce the Free-Market Algorithm (FMA), a novel metaheuristic inspired by free-market economics. Unlike Genetic Algorithms, Particle Swarm Optimization, and Simulated Annealing -- which require prescribed fitness...
Two Worlds, Two Analemmas
Sure, that figure-8 shaped curve you get when you mark the position of the Sun in Earth's sky at the same time each day over one year is called an analemma. On the left, Earth's figure-8 analemma was traced by combining...
Curly Spiral Galaxy M63
A bright spiral galaxy of the northern sky, Messier 63 is nearby, about 30 million light-years distant toward the loyal constellation Canes Venatici. Also cataloged as NGC 5055, the majestic island universe is nearly 10...
From the Pleiades to the Eridanus Loop
If you stare at an interesting patch of sky long enough, will it look different? In the case of Pleiades and Hyades star clusters -- and surrounding regions -- the answer is: yes, pretty different. Long duration camera...
Galaxies in the River
Large galaxies grow by eating small ones. Even our own galaxy practices galactic cannibalism, absorbing small galaxies that get too close and are captured by the Milky Way's gravity. In fact, the practice is common in t...
