Eco-Conscious Master Production Scheduling Under Dual Uncertainty: A Hybrid Approach Using Machine Learning and Stochastic Optimization

This paper proposes a hybrid "predict-and-optimize" framework that integrates LSTM and LightGBM machine learning models with two-stage stochastic optimization to enable eco-conscious, cost-effective production scheduling that dynamically adapts to volatile energy prices and uncertain demand, thereby reducing operational costs and Scope 2 emissions while leveraging negative electricity pricing.

SFTeAST: Integrating Structure, Frequency and Temporal Signals for Temporal Knowledge Graph Completion

The paper proposes SFTeAST, a novel Temporal Knowledge Graph Completion model that integrates structural similarity, spiral complex temporal encoding, and historical frequency filtering to efficiently infer missing facts while enhancing generalization and reducing noise interference in sparse scenarios.

Can One Agent Restore Another? Multi-Agent Verification Through Independent Constraint Sources

This study demonstrates that while larger language models can independently recover from conflicting instructions, a smaller coupled agent can restore a perturbed partner's behavior only when the partner's history lacks the conflicting instruction, providing evidence that distributed reliability in multi-agent systems stems from partially independent constraint sources rather than mere generation volume.

From Human Approval to Current Authority: Adaptive Runtime Governance at the Execution Boundary of AI-Enabled Organizational Workflows

This study proposes Adaptive Runtime Governance (ARG) as a framework to address the ethical gap between recorded human approvals and current execution authority in AI workflows, demonstrating through a deterministic prototype that revalidating authorization and policy conditions immediately before execution can technically enforce attributable human authority.

Ethical Field Theory: Computational Foundations and Philosophical Extensions

This paper presents Ethical Field Theory (EFT) as a unified mathematical framework for AI alignment that models ethical regulation as a continuous dynamical system governed by nonlinear field equations, while simultaneously bridging formal computation with six philosophical traditions and establishing seven testable predictions to validate its scientific rigor without conflating mathematical analogy with physical reality.

Geometric Indexing Does Not Improve Versioned Memory Retrieval: Three Pre-Registered Negative Results and a Silent Total-Failure Mode

This paper demonstrates through three pre-registered experiments that geometric indexing fails to improve versioned memory retrieval because artificial displacement in embedding space causes unbounded drift away from queries, while coreference resolution remains essential as raw elliptical corrections are unrecoverable and lead to silent total failure.

A Multi-Criteria Decision Framework for Aggregating Ranked ICD-10 Code Suggestions from Large Language Models

This study demonstrates that applying Multi-Criteria Decision Analysis rank aggregation methods, particularly Borda Count and Reciprocal Rank Fusion, to combine outputs from multiple Large Language Models significantly improves the accuracy and stability of automated ICD-10 clinical coding compared to using individual models or simple voting schemes.
