arXiv:2603.23184v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Reward modeling represents a long-standing challenge in reinforcement learning from human feedback (RLHF) for aligning language models. Current reward modeling is heavily contingent upon experimental feedback data with high collection costs. In this work, we study \textit{implicit reward modeling} -- learning reward models from implicit human feedback (e.g., clicks and copies) -- as a cost-effective alternative. We identify two fundamental challenges in implicit reward modeling: (1) Implicit preference data lacks definitive negative samples, which makes standard positive-negative classification methods inapplicable; (2) Implicit preference data suffers from user preference bias, where different responses have different propensities to elicit user feedback actions, which exacerbates the difficulty of distinguishing definitive negative samples. To address these challenges, we propose ImplicitRM, which aims to learn unbiased reward models from implicit preference data. ImplicitRM stratifies training samples into four latent groups via a stratification model. Building on this, it derives a learning objective through likelihood maximization, which we prove is theoretically unbiased, effectively resolving both challenges. Experiments demonstrate that ImplicitRM learns accurate reward models across implicit preference datasets. Code is available on our project website.

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:2508.19300v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: 4D live fluorescence microscopy is often compromised by prolonged high intensity illumination which induces photobleaching and phototoxic effects that generate photo-induced artifacts and severely impair image continuity and detail recovery. To address this challenge, we propose the CellINR framework, a case-specific optimization approach based on implicit neural representation. The method employs blind convolution and structure amplification strategies to map 3D spatial coordinates into the high frequency domain, enabling precise modeling and high-accuracy reconstruction of cellular structures while effectively distinguishing true signals from artifacts. Experimental results demonstrate that CellINR significantly outperforms existing techniques in artifact removal and restoration of structural continuity, and for the first time, a paired 4D live cell imaging dataset is provided for evaluating reconstruction performance, thereby offering a solid foundation for subsequent quantitative analyses and biological research. The code and dataset will be public.
