The Flexible Job Shop Scheduling Problem (FJSP) is the optimal allocation of a set of jobs to machines. Two primary challenges persist in FJSP: the unpredictable arrival of future jobs and the combina...
Logical query plan rewriting transforms a relational database query into an equivalent but more efficient form and is crucial to the performance of database-backed applications. In existing systems, r...
Ideological asymmetries in online political communication are often studied as localized phenomena emerging within communities. Here, we show that fragmentation instead operates at the level of entire...
Interstellar objects (ISOs) motivate a coupled mission-design and inference question relevant to spacecraft dynamics and control in extreme environments: if volatile-rich, rotating comet-like bodies w...
In a context of growing agricultural demand and new challenges related to food security and accessibility, boosting agricultural productivity is more important than ever. Reducing the damage caused by...
Can latent actions and environment dynamics be recovered from offline trajectories when actions are never observed? We study this question in a setting where trajectories are action-free but tagged wi...
LLM training is shifting from manual design and annotation to interaction-driven self-evolution. However, existing self-evolutionary methods face a fundamental dilemma between task diversity and verif...
We present Loom, a spatial transcriptomics (ST) visual computing system to support the analysis of pseudo-temporal trajectories, comparative investigation across samples and regions of interest, and t...
Ordinary differential equation (ODE) models are widely used to describe systems in many areas of science. To ensure these models provide accurate and interpretable representations of real-world dynami...
Oral health issues affect billions globally, but the cost and limited access to professional dental care hinder preventive oral healthcare. Research relies on clinical-grade radiographs or intraoral c...
LLM agents increasingly act over long horizons, where a single trajectory can contain hundreds or thousands of actions. In these settings, outcome-only rewards provide too sparse guidance, failing to ...
Policy-adherent tool-calling agents in customer-service domains must maintain task states across turns while calling tools and obeying domain policies. Task states consist of relevant facts, identifie...
Autonomous aerial vehicles (AAVs) empower sixth-generation (6G) Internet-of-Things (IoT) networks through mobility-driven data collection. However, conventional reward-driven reinforcement learning fo...
Reconstructing full spatio-temporal dynamics from sparse observations in both space and time remains a central challenge in complex systems, as measurements can be spatially incomplete and can be also...
Existing approaches to e-scooter mobility hub planning lack city-type-specific causal evidence. Demand models are typically correlational, built on proprietary trip data, and do not distinguish how dr...
This paper examines how political violence in West Africa is distributed between urban agglomerations and their surrounding areas using spatially disaggregated conflict and population data. Covering s...
Real-world data visualization (DV) requires native environmental grounding, cross-platform evolution, and proactive intent alignment. Yet, existing benchmarks often suffer from code-sandbox confinemen...
Human-robot collaboration has been studied primarily in dyadic or sequential settings. However, real homes require multiadic collaboration, where multiple humans and robots share a workspace, acting c...
Current societies face interconnected environmental and social crises. Post-growth research argues that addressing these challenges requires a reorganization of society around the priorities of enviro...
Large Chunk Test-Time Training (LaCT) has shown strong performance on long-context 3D reconstruction, but its fully plastic inference-time updates remain vulnerable to catastrophic forgetting and over...
