Picture was created by administrator in charge of station's Facebook account who wanted to create'friendlier image' It was an arresting image and an irresistible story. A group of tough Thai police officers - five men and one woman - all wearing elaborate festival-style dresses, surrounding a drug dealer they had caught while undercover. The image, released by local police, was so compelling that it found its way on to the front page of the UK's Daily Star, as well as in picture stories in the Telegraph, the Sun and the New York Post. The Sun wrote: "The burly crew of five men and one woman slipped into skin tight sequins and feathers for the covert mission in Thailand ."

Thailand risks losing ground to regional rivals such as Vietnam and Indonesia, which have moved more aggressively to streamline regulatory regimes and court foreign capital. Thai Prime Minister Anutin Charnvirakul's government plans a sweeping reform of more than 7,000 business regulations, aiming to cut bureaucratic hurdles and accelerate investment as it tries to compete for global capital. The planned rollback of ministerial rules and secondary regulations, many of which have accumulated into a significant burden on companies, marks a concerted push to reposition Thailand as a more competitive destination for multinational firms reconfiguring supply chains. The effort was detailed in a government statement Monday and comes as Thailand risks losing ground to regional rivals such as Vietnam and Indonesia, which have moved more aggressively to streamline regulatory regimes and court foreign capital. "Regulations intended to guide have, in practice, become costs," said government spokeswoman Rachada Dhnadirek.

Deep learning models for 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG) analysis achieve high diagnostic performance but lack the intuitive interpretability required for clinical integration. Standard feature attribution methods are limited by the inherent difficulty in mapping abstract waveform fluctuations to physical anatomical pathologies. To resolve this, we propose a cross-modal method that projects feature attributions from high-performance 12-lead ECG models onto the CineECG 3D anatomical space. Our study reveals that while models trained directly on CineECG signals suffer from reduced accuracy and incoherent attributions, the proposed mapping mechanism effectively recovers clinically relevant feature rankings. Validated against a ground-truth dataset of 20 cases annotated by domain experts, the mapped explanations yield a Dice score of 0.56, significantly outperforming the 0.47 baseline of standard 12-lead attributions. These findings indicate that cross-modal averaging mapping effectively filters attribution instability and improves the localization of pathological features, combining the diagnostic expressiveness of standard ECG with the intuitive clarity of anatomical visualization.

Inference-time LLM alignment methods, particularly activation steering, offer an alternative to fine-tuning by directly modifying activations during generation. Existing methods, however, often rely on non-anticipative interventions that ignore how perturbations propagate through transformer layers and lack online error feedback, resulting in suboptimal, open-loop control. To address this, we show empirically that, despite the nonlinear structure of transformer blocks, layer-wise dynamics across multiple LLM architectures and scales are well-approximated by locally-linear models. Exploiting this property, we model LLM inference as a linear time-varying dynamical system and adapt the classical linear quadratic regulator to compute feedback controllers using layer-wise Jacobians, steering activations toward desired semantic setpoints in closed-loop with minimal computational overhead and no offline training. We also derive theoretical bounds on setpoint tracking error, enabling formal guarantees on steering performance. Using a novel adaptive semantic feature setpoint signal, our method yields robust, fine-grained behavior control across models, scales, and tasks, including state-of-the-art modulation of toxicity, truthfulness, refusal, and arbitrary concepts, surpassing baseline steering methods.

Supervised machine learning assumes that labeled data provide accurate measurements of the concepts models are meant to learn. Yet in practice, human labeling introduces systematic variation arising from ambiguous items, divergent interpretations, and simple mistakes. Machine learning research commonly treats all disagreement as noise, which obscures these distinctions and limits our understanding of what models actually learn. This paper reframes annotation as a measurement process and introduces a statistical framework for decomposing labeling outcomes into interpretable sources of variation: instance difficulty, annotator bias, situational noise, and relational alignment. The framework extends classical measurement-error models to accommodate both shared and individualized notions of truth, reflecting traditional and human label variation interpretations of error, and provides a diagnostic for assessing which regime better characterizes a given task. Applying the proposed model to a multi-annotator natural language inference dataset, we find empirical evidence for all four theorized components and demonstrate the effectiveness of our approach. We conclude with implications for data-centric machine learning and outline how this approach can guide the development of a more systematic science of labeling.

We study the problem of reconstructing the latent geometry of a $d$-dimensional Riemannian manifold from a random geometric graph. While recent works have made significant progress in manifold recovery from random geometric graphs, and more generally from noisy distances, the precision of pairwise distance estimation has been fundamentally constrained by the volumetric barrier, namely the natural sample-spacing scale $n^{-1/d}$ coming from the fact that a generic point of the manifold typically lies at distance of order $n^{-1/d}$ from the nearest sampled point. In this paper, we introduce a novel approach, Orthogonal Ring Distance Estimation Routine (ORDER), which achieves a pointwise distance estimation precision of order $n^{-2/(d+5)}$ up to polylogarithmic factors in $n$ in polynomial time. This strictly beats the volumetric barrier for dimensions $d > 5$. As a consequence of obtaining pointwise precision better than $n^{-1/d}$, we prove that the Gromov--Wasserstein distance between the reconstructed metric measure space and the true latent manifold is of order $n^{-1/d}$. This matches the Wasserstein convergence rate of empirical measures, demonstrating that our reconstructed graph metric is asymptotically as good as having access to the full pairwise distance matrix of the sampled points. Our results are proven in a very general setting which includes general models of noisy pairwise distances, sparse random geometric graphs, and unknown connection probability functions.

Online health communities (OHCs) are vital for fostering peer support and improving health outcomes. Support groups within these platforms can provide more personalized and cohesive peer support, yet traditional support group formation methods face challenges related to scalability, static categorization, and insufficient personalization. To overcome these limitations, we propose two novel machine learning models for automated support group formation: the Group specific Dirichlet Multinomial Regression (gDMR) and the Group specific Structured Topic Model (gSTM). These models integrate user generated textual content, demographic profiles, and interaction data represented through node embeddings derived from user networks to systematically automate personalized, semantically coherent support group formation. We evaluate the models on a large scale dataset from MedHelp, comprising over 2 million user posts. Both models substantially outperform baseline methods including LDA, DMR, and STM in predictive accuracy (held out log likelihood), semantic coherence (UMass metric), and internal group consistency. The gDMR model yields group covariates that facilitate practical implementation by leveraging relational patterns from network structures and demographic data. In contrast, gSTM emphasizes sparsity constraints to generate more distinct and thematically specific groups. Qualitative analysis further validates the alignment between model generated groups and manually coded themes, showing the practical relevance of the models in informing groups that address diverse health concerns such as chronic illness management, diagnostic uncertainty, and mental health. By reducing reliance on manual curation, these frameworks provide scalable solutions that enhance peer interactions within OHCs, with implications for patient engagement, community resilience, and health outcomes.
