arXiv:2603.03662v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) have emerged as a powerful framework for processing graph-structured data. However, conventional GNNs and their variants are inherently limited by the homophily assumption, leading to degradation in performance on heterophilic graphs. Although substantial efforts have been made to mitigate this issue, they remain constrained by the message-passing paradigm, which is inherently rooted in homophily. In this paper, a detailed analysis of how the underlying label autocorrelation of the homophily assumption introduces bias into GNNs is presented. We innovatively leverage a negative feedback mechanism to correct the bias and propose Graph Negative Feedback Bias Correction (GNFBC), a simple yet effective framework that is independent of any specific aggregation strategy. Specifically, we introduce a negative feedback loss that penalizes the sensitivity of predictions to label autocorrelation. Furthermore, we incorporate the output of graph-agnostic models as a feedback term, leveraging independent node feature information to counteract correlation-induced bias guided by Dirichlet energy. GNFBC can be seamlessly integrated into existing GNN architectures, improving overall performance with comparable computational and memory overhead.

arXiv:2603.02650v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Diffusion planners are a strong approach for offline reinforcement learning, but they can fail when value-guided selection favours trajectories that score well yet are locally inconsistent with the environment dynamics, resulting in brittle execution. We propose Self-supervised Action Gating with Energies (SAGE), an inference-time re-ranking method that penalises dynamically inconsistent plans using a latent consistency signal. SAGE trains a Joint-Embedding Predictive Architecture (JEPA) encoder on offline state sequences and an action-conditioned latent predictor for short horizon transitions. At test time, SAGE assigns each sampled candidate an energy given by its latent prediction error and combines this feasibility score with value estimates to select actions. SAGE can integrate into existing diffusion planning pipelines that can sample trajectories and select actions via value scoring; it requires no environment rollouts and no policy re-training. Across locomotion, navigation, and manipulation benchmarks, SAGE improves the performance and robustness of diffusion planners.

arXiv:2603.03106v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Graph fraud detection (GFD) is crucial for identifying fraudulent behavior within graphs, benefiting various domains such as financial networks and social media. Existing methods based on graph neural networks (GNNs) have succeeded considerably due to their effective expressive capacity for graph-structured data. However, the inherent inductive bias of GNNs, including the homogeneity assumption and the limited global modeling ability, hinder the effectiveness of these models. To address these challenges, we propose Multi-scale Neighborhood Awareness Transformer (MANDATE), which alleviates the inherent inductive bias of GNNs. Specifically, we design a multi-scale positional encoding strategy to encode the positional information of various distances from the central node. By incorporating it with the self-attention mechanism, the global modeling ability can be enhanced significantly. Meanwhile, we design different embedding strategies for homophilic and heterophilic connections. This mitigates the homophily distribution differences between benign and fraudulent nodes. Moreover, an embedding fusion strategy is designed for multi-relation graphs, which alleviates the distribution bias caused by different relationships. Experiments on three fraud detection datasets demonstrate the superiority of MANDATE.

arXiv:2603.03143v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Leveraging the priors of 2D diffusion models for 3D editing has emerged as a promising paradigm. However, maintaining multi-view consistency in edited results remains challenging, and the extreme scarcity of 3D-consistent editing paired data renders supervised fine-tuning (SFT), the most effective training strategy for editing tasks, infeasible. In this paper, we observe that, while generating multi-view consistent 3D content is highly challenging, verifying 3D consistency is tractable, naturally positioning reinforcement learning (RL) as a feasible solution. Motivated by this, we propose \textbf{RL3DEdit}, a single-pass framework driven by RL optimization with novel rewards derived from the 3D foundation model, VGGT. Specifically, we leverage VGGT's robust priors learned from massive real-world data, feed the edited images, and utilize the output confidence maps and pose estimation errors as reward signals, effectively anchoring the 2D editing priors onto a 3D-consistent manifold via RL. Extensive experiments demonstrate that RL3DEdit achieves stable multi-view consistency and outperforms state-of-the-art methods in editing quality with high efficiency. To promote the development of 3D editing, we will release the code and model.

arXiv:2403.07183v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We present an approach for estimating the fraction of text in a large corpus which is likely to be substantially modified or produced by a large language model (LLM). Our maximum likelihood model leverages expert-written and AI-generated reference texts to accurately and efficiently examine real-world LLM-use at the corpus level. We apply this approach to a case study of scientific peer review in AI conferences that took place after the release of ChatGPT: ICLR 2024, NeurIPS 2023, CoRL 2023 and EMNLP 2023. Our results suggest that between 6.5% and 16.9% of text submitted as peer reviews to these conferences could have been substantially modified by LLMs, i.e. beyond spell-checking or minor writing updates. The circumstances in which generated text occurs offer insight into user behavior: the estimated fraction of LLM-generated text is higher in reviews which report lower confidence, were submitted close to the deadline, and from reviewers who are less likely to respond to author rebuttals. We also observe corpus-level trends in generated text which may be too subtle to detect at the individual level, and discuss the implications of such trends on peer review. We call for future interdisciplinary work to examine how LLM use is changing our information and knowledge practices.

arXiv:2507.05992v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Partial multi-label learning aims to extract knowledge from incompletely annotated data, which includes known correct labels, known incorrect labels, and unknown labels. The core challenge lies in accurately identifying the ambiguous relationships between labels and instances. In this paper, we emphasize that matching co-occurrence patterns between labels and instances is key to addressing this challenge. To this end, we propose Semantic Co-occurrence Insight Network (SCINet), a novel and effective framework for partial multi-label learning. Specifically, SCINet introduces a bi-dominant prompter module, which leverages an off-the-shelf multimodal model to capture text-image correlations and enhance semantic alignment. To reinforce instance-label interdependencies, we develop a cross-modality fusion module that jointly models inter-label correlations, inter-instance relationships, and co-occurrence patterns across instance-label assignments. Moreover, we propose an intrinsic semantic augmentation strategy that enhances the model's understanding of intrinsic data semantics by applying diverse image transformations, thereby fostering a synergistic relationship between label confidence and sample difficulty. Extensive experiments on four widely-used benchmark datasets demonstrate that SCINet surpasses state-of-the-art methods.

arXiv:2602.14251v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Tabular anomaly detection is often handled by single detectors or static ensembles, even though strong performance on tabular data typically comes from heterogeneous model families (e.g., tree ensembles, deep tabular networks, and tabular foundation models) that frequently disagree under distribution shift, missingness, and rare-anomaly regimes. We propose MAD, a Multi-Agent Debating framework that treats this disagreement as a first-class signal and resolves it through a mathematically grounded coordination layer. Each agent is a machine learning (ML)-based detector that produces a normalized anomaly score, confidence, and structured evidence, augmented by a large language model (LLM)-based critic. A coordinator converts these messages into bounded per-agent losses and updates agent influence via an exponentiated-gradient rule, yielding both a final debated anomaly score and an auditable debate trace. MAD is a unified agentic framework that can recover existing approaches, such as mixture-of-experts gating and learning-with-expert-advice aggregation, by restricting the message space and synthesis operator. We establish regret guarantees for the synthesized losses and show how conformal calibration can wrap the debated score to control false positives under exchangeability. Experiments on diverse tabular anomaly benchmarks show improved robustness over baselines and clearer traces of model disagreement

arXiv:2602.13021v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Symbolic Regression (SR) aims to discover interpretable equations from observational data, with the potential to reveal underlying principles behind natural phenomena. However, existing approaches often fall into the Pseudo-Equation Trap: producing equations that fit observations well but remain inconsistent with fundamental scientific principles. A key reason is that these approaches are dominated by empirical risk minimization, lacking explicit constraints to ensure scientific consistency. To bridge this gap, we propose PG-SR, a prior-guided SR framework built upon a three-stage pipeline consisting of warm-up, evolution, and refinement. Throughout the pipeline, PG-SR introduces a prior constraint checker that explicitly encodes domain priors as executable constraint programs, and employs a Prior Annealing Constrained Evaluation (PACE) mechanism during the evolution stage to progressively steer discovery toward scientifically consistent regions. Theoretically, we prove that PG-SR reduces the Rademacher complexity of the hypothesis space, yielding tighter generalization bounds and establishing a guarantee against pseudo-equations. Experimentally, PG-SR outperforms state-of-the-art baselines across diverse domains, maintaining robustness to varying prior quality, noisy data, and data scarcity.
