AI is far from a perfect resource. But it seems to hallucinate less than Kennedy.

For decades, doctors have treated T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia and T-cell lymphoblastic lymphoma as two faces of the same disease. Both arise from immature T cells, the immune system’s in-training soldiers, and both are driven by the uncontrolled proliferation of lymphoblasts. The conventional distinction was largely anatomical: when the malignant cells crowd the bone marrow […]

arXiv:2609.35986v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We determine asymptotic global fidelities of cloning generic mixed states with simple (non-degenerate) full-rank spectra. In fixed dimension $d$, let $n$ inputs and $m_n$ outputs satisfy $m_n/n\to\gamma>1$. For a known simple full-rank spectrum $p_1>\cdots>p_d>0$, we prove that the optimal root fidelity between the entire output and the product target state is $$ F_\rm{orb}(\gamma,p) =\prod_{i

arXiv:2609.37576v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: With the rapid advancement of text-to-image (T2I) generation, robust evaluation becomes critical yet challenging, as traditional metrics fail to capture fine-grained alignment and generative artifacts. While large multimodal models (LMMs) are increasingly adopted as evaluators, existing benchmarks typically study semantic understanding, quality perception, and authenticity identification in isolation, while largely neglecting responsibility detection. This leaves a gap in unified and comprehensive validation. To bridge this gap, we introduce SQUARE-Bench, a comprehensive benchmark that systematically evaluates LMM capabilities as evaluators of AI-generated images across four aspects: Semantics, Quality, Authenticity, and Responsibility. SQUARE-Bench introduces a granular taxonomy of 38 sub-dimensions to evaluate nearly 10K AI-generated images sampled from 22 diverse models, ranging from legacy to state-of-the-art generators, complemented

arXiv:2609.37501v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We propose RegLLM, a diagnostic harness for bounded autonomy in regulated agentic workflows. It instruments six trustworthiness signals: citation validity, source grounding, schema compliance, escalation correctness, constitutional alignment, and unsafe-action rate. Signals are distinguished by their source of supervision: programmatic verifiers, task-level escalation labels, or AI-judge scores. A deterministic runtime supervisor blocks ungrounded answers and forces escalation, logging interventions. The same domain constitution informs evaluation, training rewards, and serving guardrails. Task-level should-escalate labels make the act-versus-defer decision a measurable training signal. We demonstrate the harness at smoke scale. An offline reference run (n=12) lifts escalation recall from 0 to 0.67 and reduces unsafe-action rate from 0.33 to 0.08 when governance is enabled. Two single-GPU Qwen2.5-3B LoRA/DPO pilots (n=8, same seed and

arXiv:2609.37028v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Zero-shot text-to-speech synthesizes new utterances in a speaker's voice from a short reference recording. Voice cloning requires accurate content and preserved speaker identity, but supervised acoustic-token prediction does not directly optimize these waveform-level properties. Reward-based post-training addresses this mismatch, but in discrete diffusion, token choices and reveal positions jointly define the sampling trajectory, complicating alignment. We introduce RAWD-TTS (Ratio-free Advantage-Weighted Denoising), which scores decoded samples with recognition and speaker rewards and uses group-relative advantages to weight masked-token reconstruction of those samples, without reverse-trajectory likelihoods or target audio. On 500 Russian CV3-Eval voice-cloning prompts, joint alignment reduces word error rate from 3.18% to 2.42% at the reward-selected checkpoint (24.0% relative) and to 2.58% at the final checkpoint (19.0%), while WavLM

arXiv:2609.36617v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We study the ability of LLMs to generate edit-inducing questions whose answer will improve a paper draft. On a dataset of paired submission and camera-ready papers from ICLR and NeurIPS, we compare the helpfulness of questions from GPT models with or without full paper context to that of human reviewers. GPT produces more edit-inducing questions and its questions are associated with more extensive edits and cover a broader range of edited content compared to questions from reviewers. However, a much smaller percentage of the GPT questions are edit-inducing. Our analyses confirm that automated questions can be beneficial to authors and highlight an example task where proper attending to long context deteriorates reasoning model ability to produce helpful output.

arXiv:2609.36478v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The tragedy of the commons poses a multi-agent safety problem: reward-seeking agents can deplete a shared resource, and cooperation among its users does not itself specify how much must be preserved. We make preservation an explicit requirement by formulating a regenerative commons as a constrained Markov game or a constrained multi-agent MDP with a designer-specified depletion budget. We develop a nonstationary Lagrangian framework that constructs a policy sequence from solutions of unconstrained games or cooperative control problems. Extending earlier time-average constructions, we introduce average-epoch solution concepts for reset episodes with discounted rewards and terminal costs. We prove a reward-independent feasibility certificate, cooperative feasibility and approximate optimality against feasible policy mixtures, and an extension to unbiased sampled costs. For self-interested agents, a constrained Nash certificate quantifies

Conventional AI models in medicine are usually trained for a single, narrowly defined task, such as detecting a specific cardiac arrhythmia. So-called foundation models take a different approach: Much like a language model such as ChatGPT develops a comprehensive understanding of text, an ECG foundation model learns to "understand" the heart signal in all its diversity. It can then apply that knowledge to many medical questions—including those for which only limited specific training data is available. This is a decisive advantage, especially in medicine.

arXiv:2609.33994v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: High-bandwidth plasma diagnostics increasingly provide inputs to machine learning and signal-processing algorithms intended for real-time tokamak control, but the complete path from diagnostic sampling to control-system handoff is difficult to commission because of their sampling rates. We develop a packet-level digital hardware twin for the megahertz diagnostic edge-AI architecture. The simulator represents a 64-channel, 1 MHz beam emission spectroscopy (BES) diagnostic embedded in a 96-channel dual-carrier acquisition system, two 48-channel streams with SPAD0 sample counters, 10 GbE Hardware UDP transport, packet loss and network jitter, FPGA parsing and dual-carrier alignment, causal preprocessing and edge inference, a compact Ethernet result packet, receiver-side shared state, and a 1 kHz PCS-like control cycle. Binary UDP payloads and PCAP files are generated rather than emulating transport only at the array level. With a baseline

Aging progressively affects the functioning of our body and, among other things, deteriorates the ability of the hematopoietic system- the set of organs and tissues responsible for producing blood cells- to maintain adequate blood cell production.

Researchers here provide a proof of concept for the use of Raman spectroscopy to non-invasively measure the burden of senescent cells in an imaged tissue. This works because Raman imaging can provide distinct signatures of different molecules via scattering of photons. Provided the field of imaging is sufficiently constrained, it is possible to produce results that measure differing abundances of specific molecules in different cells. Senescent cells exhibit a range of upregulated and downregulated proteins and other molecules, so in principle creating a system to assess the presence of senescent cells is just a matter of putting in the work to construct and validate a specific implementation. Aging and tissue repair involve heterogeneous remodeling across transcriptional, biochemical, and cellular dimensions, yet prevailing definitions rely on […]

23 сентября 2026 года Франция созвала внеочередное заседание Совета Безопасности ООН. За считанные минуты до начала Anthropic опубликовала препринт: ИИ-модель Claude обнаружила в ДНК бактериофагов ранее не описанную ферментную систему ART (array-associated reverse transcriptases). Структура ART напоминает CRISPR — повторяющиеся массивы ДНК, из которых образуются короткие РНК. Это может оказаться новым механизмом редактирования генов. А может и не оказаться — функция системы пока неизвестна, препринт не прошёл рецензирование, и сама Anthropic называет открытие «предварительным».

arXiv:2609.31482v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Generative AI is reshaping the cultural infrastructures through which knowledge is found, synthesized, and held accountable. To make sense of this shift, scholars and policymakers reach for historical analogies of technologies such as the printing press, steam power or electricity. But these comparisons are typically imprecise about which property of the technology carries the comparison, and imprecise analogies produce imprecise governance by designing interventions against the wrong property of the system. This paper offers a diagnostic framework for analyzing how generative AI can transform epistemic and cultural practice. This paper offers a diagnostic framework for analyzing how generative AI can transform epistemic and cultural practice. We decompose each intervention into three coordinates: the epistemic site at which a technology acts, the governing logic by which it organizes its object, and the technical mechanism through which

arXiv:2609.31358v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The Model Context Protocol (MCP) provides a common interface through which AI applications discover and use external resources and tools. It allows language-model agents to ground their reasoning in current system state and interact with heterogeneous services. In medical environments, however, exposing device state and action affordances requires deterministic constraints on possible effects. We present an IEEE 11073 Service-Oriented Device Connectivity (SDC)-to-MCP gateway that exposes metrics, alarms, context references, and semantic metadata as read-only resources, while representing selected action affordances as policy-validated dry-run tools. The term safety-bounded denotes a narrow no-execution property: agent-facing requests dispatch no SDC device operation. A Python prototype supports simulated fault and lifecycle experiments, a software-reference protocol path spanning independent Java and Python implementations, deterministic

arXiv:2609.31255v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: General-purpose agent memory summarizes conversations: it extracts salient snippets, embeds them, and retrieves the top-k into the prompt. A health agent cannot run on summaries: a dose becomes a sentence, "since last week" is resolved at the model's discretion, and a three-month glucose trend cannot be answered by text similarity. We present PIA, a personal intelligence agent deployed alongside a consumer health agent. PIA receives the agent's natural-language requests, decides for itself whether and how to write or read, and turns conversations into typed clinical records and records into a synthesized understanding of the user. Its memory harness consists of four controls -- extraction, memory, retrieval, and understanding -- each a domain-agnostic mechanism with a pluggable health module: schema, medical alias dictionary, knowledge graph, and temporal rules. We show how the same query receives a different answer as the memory

arXiv:2609.30842v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Contact-rich manipulation requires robots to regulate force against surfaces whose geometry deviates unpredictably from training conditions. Trajectory-based imitation learning, which reproduces observable outputs, breaks down under such shifts. We propose Impedance Cloning, which instead imitates the biomechanical priors that generate motion -- the stiffness and equilibrium point -- and thereby passively absorbs contact uncertainty. Because these parameters encode intent rather than outcome, they generalize across surface geometries where trajectory reproduction does not. We extract them from bilateral teleoperation demonstrations via a particle filter without force/torque sensors and evaluate the framework on two CRANE-X7 manipulators. In a wiping task with joint-space actions, the trajectory-based baseline loses contact below -6 cm, whereas the proposed method maintains a consistent 4-5 N contact force above -6 cm, with a gradual

arXiv:2609.30714v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Agentic AI systems are increasingly being explored in medical imaging to improve throughput and reduce clinician workload; however, safe deployment remains challenging because autonomous errors may propagate into downstream clinical decisions. A central requirement is therefore not only strong predictive performance, but also a reliable routing mechanism that determines when the system should proceed autonomously and when a case should be escalated for further review. To address this gap, we propose CRC-Router, a risk-constrained, uncertainty-aware routing module that is applicable to both conventional medical prediction models and agentic medical AI systems. CRC-Router combines multiple complementary uncertainty signals with the predictive score to construct a per-finding routing feature vector, maps this vector to an estimated wrong-accept risk using a lightweight per-finding risk model, and then applies Conformal Risk Control (CRC) to

arXiv:2609.30623v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Recent generative video editing models enable video content modification (e.g., changing a character) but target short clips. Extending them to full multi-shot videos requires tedious work to locate relevant content across shots, segment it into clips, craft context-aware editing prompts for each clip, and repeatedly articulate complex editing intent. To address this, we explore an interaction paradigm for editing through underlying video structures (e.g., scripts, scenes, characters, shots, and their relationships). We present CraftTrace, an interactive prototype that transforms a video into a malleable, multilevel structure for generative editing. Users work in task-centric workspaces to modify elements or reshape relationships, while an AI agent translates and propagates changes across the video. A user study and expert review show that this structure helps users understand videos, formulate and refine editing intent, and explore

arXiv:2609.30448v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: AI-generated content is becoming a rapidly growing class of digital artifacts. Because these artifacts accumulate over time, their exponential growth creates a substantial storage, energy, and infrastructure cost for operators and society. At the same time, GPU compute cost continues to fall rapidly with each hardware generation. This divergence raises a fundamental question: when does on-demand regeneration become cheaper than persistent storage? This paper develops a cost model for comparing persistent storage and on-demand regeneration for AI-generated artifacts. The model accounts for corpus growth, HDD and tape price trends, drive replacement, electricity, request skew, caching, generator FLOPs, and future GPU price-performance improvements. For image generation, our analysis shows that prompt-based regeneration does not become cheaper than storage until around 2040, because every cache miss must still rerun the full

Aging progressively affects how our bodies function. Among other effects, it reduces the ability of the hematopoietic system—the organs and tissues responsible for producing blood cells—to maintain adequate blood cell production. Understanding and measuring this process is especially important for studying how blood stem cells age and identifying ways to preserve or restore their function.
