On the positive side, a small model is easy to learn.

Although potential attacks against OL TR algorithms may cause serious losses in real-world applications, there is limited knowledge about adversarial attacks on OL TR. This paper studies attack strategies against multiple variants of OL TR.

Thanks for the insightful and helpful reviews, which will significantly improve our paper. R1, R2, R3 indicate to whom the concern belongs. Ground truth is in red, predictions are in blue, and predicted eye gaze point of the gaze-based model is in green. SVMo bridges global and local context both spatially ( e.g., whole frame vs anchor Other contributions include exhaustive experiments which may be useful for future studies. In (c), the predicted gaze falls on the intersection of 3 objects, slightly closer to the center of the rabbit.

Cosmological simulations play an important role in the interpretation of astronomical data, in particular in comparing observed data to our theoretical expectations. However, to compare data with these simulations, the simulations in principle need to include gravity, magneto-hydrodyanmics, radiative transfer, etc. These ideal large-volume simulations (gravo-magneto-hydrodynamical) are incredibly computationally expensive which can cost tens of millions of CPU hours to run. In this paper, we propose a deep learning approach to map from the dark-matter-only simulation (computationally cheaper) to the galaxy distribution (from the much costlier cosmological simulation). The main challenge of this task is the high sparsity in the target galaxy distribution: space is mainly empty. We propose a cascade architecture composed of a classification filter followed by a regression procedure. We show that our result outperforms a state-of-the-art model used in the astronomical community, and provides a good trade-off between computational cost and prediction accuracy.

Recent advances in large language models (LLMs) and multimodal LLMs (MLLMs) have led to strong reasoning ability across a wide range of tasks. However, their ability to perform mathematical reasoning from spoken input remains underexplored. Prior studies on speech modality have mostly focused on factual speech understanding or simple audio reasoning tasks, providing limited insight into logical step-by-step reasoning, such as that required for mathematical problem solving. To address this gap, we introduce Spoken Math Question Answering (Spoken-MQA), a new benchmark designed to evaluate the mathematical reasoning capabilities of speech-based models, including both cascade models (ASR + LLMs) and end-to-end speech LLMs. Spoken-MQA covers a diverse set of math problems, including pure arithmetic, single-step and multi-step contextual reasoning, and knowledge-oriented reasoning problems, all presented in unambiguous natural spoken language. Through extensive experiments, we find that: (1) while some speech LLMs perform competitively on contextual reasoning tasks involving basic arithmetic, they still struggle with direct arithmetic problems; (2) current LLMs exhibit a strong bias toward symbolic mathematical expressions written in LaTex and have difficulty interpreting verbalized mathematical expressions; and (3) mathematical knowledge reasoning abilities are significantly degraded in current speech LLMs.

Online learning to rank sequentially recommends a small list of items to users from a large candidate set and receives the users' click feedback. In many real-world scenarios, users browse the recommended list in order and click the first attractive item without checking the rest. Such behaviors are usually formulated as the cascade model. Many recent works study algorithms for cascading bandits, an online learning to rank framework in the cascade model. However, the performance of existing methods may drop significantly if part of the user feedback is adversarially corrupted (e.g., click fraud). In this work, we study how to resist adversarial corruptions in cascading bandits. We first formulate the ``\textit{Cascading Bandits with Adversarial Corruptions}" (CBAC) problem, which assumes that there is an adaptive adversary that may manipulate the user feedback. Then we propose two robust algorithms for this problem, which assume the corruption level is known and agnostic, respectively. We show that both algorithms can achieve logarithmic regret when the algorithm is not under attack, and the regret increases linearly with the corruption level. The experimental results also verify the robustness of our methods.
