Attention-Guided Stroke Location Inversion for Explainable Sketch Recognition

This paper proposes Attention-Guided Stroke Location Inversion (AG-SLI), a refined, rank-based optimization framework that overcomes the instability of continuous attention-weighted gradients to significantly improve convergence speed, spatial recovery, and computational efficiency in explainable sketch recognition.

Law as Code in Autonomous Drone Perception: Active Inference for Context-Dependent Legal Compliance

This paper proposes a Legal Actuator Layer (LAL) that integrates Active Inference to enable autonomous drones to dynamically balance and enforce conflicting legal obligations in real time, outperforming rigid rule-based systems in complex scenarios while maintaining computational efficiency and addressing fundamental limits in learning compliance-relevant data.

Augmentation-induced sibling leakage in small-data surface imaging: measurement and a reporting protocol

This paper demonstrates that random splitting of augmented image datasets in deep learning for surface and microscopy imaging leads to severe "sibling leakage" that artificially inflates performance metrics, and proposes a reporting protocol and a leakage statistic to ensure evaluations reflect true generalization rather than mere recognition of near-duplicates.

A Mobile-Centric Comparative Evaluation of Deep Learning Models for Real-Time Flower Recognition

This study presents a mobile-centric framework for real-time flower recognition that optimizes deep learning architectures and a hybrid MobileNetV2–XGBoost pipeline for the Oxford 102 Flowers dataset, demonstrating that a tailored MobileNetV2 model converted to TensorFlow Lite achieves 96% accuracy with low latency suitable for offline Android deployment.

Class Activation Map Stability as an Uncertain Guide to Denoising Gain for Frozen Pedestrian Detectors Under Gaussian Noise

This study demonstrates that while the Attention-Preservation Score (APS) correlates with detection gains for specific reference detectors, it fails to serve as a reliable, generalizable guide for selecting denoising methods across diverse frozen pedestrian detectors under Gaussian noise.

TensorEQC: Structure-Aware Equivalence Checking with GF(2) Algebra, Exact Tensor Networks, and Reset Analysis : a Multi-Algorithmic Study of Datapath Verification and Reset-State Dependence

This paper introduces TensorEQC, a multi-algorithmic verification framework that leverages GF(2) algebra, exact tensor networks, and reset analysis to demonstrate that effective equivalence checking requires structure-dependent engine selection rather than relying on a single universal approach.
