Contribution-Aware Federated Edge Learning for Robust Resource Allocation in Massive IoT Networks

This paper proposes a contribution-aware federated edge learning algorithm (CA-FE-MADDPG) that integrates spatial interference modeling, fine-grained penalty mechanisms, and heuristic-guided initialization to address spectrum interference, unfair credit allocation, and environmental non-stationarity in massive IoT networks, thereby significantly improving system throughput, access rates, and quality of service.

Surgical Weight Injection for Capability-Targeted Editing of Aligned Large Language Models

This paper introduces SWIFT, a gradient-free, white-box framework that surgically injects sparse steering vectors into the deep critical layers of aligned Large Language Models to restore suppressed capabilities with high auditability, revertibility, and locality, achieving near full-supervised fine-tuning performance in under 10 seconds while modifying less than 1% of parameters.

Simulating Quiet Quitting: A Computational Experiment on Crisis Management Strategies using Generative Agents

This paper introduces a generative agent framework that successfully simulates and quantifies the "Quiet Quitting" phenomenon, revealing that while commitment strategies significantly reduce turnover intentions, their effectiveness is critically moderated by employee personality traits, thereby establishing a computational testbed for precision-targeted crisis management.
