When Do Corrective Features Help? An Agent for Corrective Feature Discovery on Black-Box Forecasters
arXiv:2608.05207v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Frozen pretrained forecasters often fail in structured, recurring ways that are costly to repair through fine-tuning. We study corrective feature discovery: mining interpretable features of a frozen forecaster's residual to drive a lightweight post-hoc corrector. Prior automated feature engineering models the data-generating process; corrective features instead model the model-failure process. We present CRAFTER (Corrective Residual Agent with Feature-based Temporal Exploration and Reasoning), which keeps the backbone frozen and mines its residual with two complementary generators: a compositional search over the raw input channels, and a large language model (LLM) that proposes named feature combinations, binary flags, and short executable code. A single validation-grounded gate accepts or rejects every candidate regardless of its origin, and a validation-selected corrector applies the accepted features or leaves the forecast unchanged.
VLAff: Vision-Language-Affordance Model for Unified Actionable Affordances
arXiv:2608.05215v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Learning manipulation skills from human videos is promising for scalable robot learning. However, the embodiment mismatch between humans and robots makes this challenging. One promising solution is to learn object-centric actionable affordances that are embodiment-agnostic. In this work, we propose a framework that leverages egocentric human videos with state-of-the-art 3D Structure-from-Motion and hand mesh reconstruction to extract actionable affordances such as visual, grasp, and trajectory affordances that explicitly encode where to interact, how to grasp, and how to move. We construct EgoAffordance, a large-scale dataset comprising 204K episodes with 5.6M visual affordances and 11.6M grasp and trajectory affordances. Building on this, we introduce VLAff, a large vision-language model-based unified foundation model that learns cross-modal correlations across all actionable affordances. Given a visual observation and instruction, VLAff
Agentic Nesting: A New Methodology for Existing Enterprise Application Integration and Services
arXiv:2608.05159v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Enterprise operations extensively rely on multiple heterogeneous business systems and information applications, which also result in severe data silos and process fragmentation. Enterprises have invested considerable financial and material resources in building these applications, however, effectively leveraging and orchestrating them remains a formidable challenge. Conventional approaches to enterprise application integration, encompassing middleware architectures such as Enterprise Service Bus (ESB), API gateway infrastructures, and Robotic Process Automation (RPA), suffer from inherent limitations like high architectural coupling, escalating operation and maintenance costs, and limited intelligence capabilities. This paper proposes Agentic Nesting, a multi-agent collaboration framework in which existing enterprise applications are encapsulated as autonomous AI agents within a hierarchically nested structure. Rather than flat interconne
The Ignition Index: Measuring Global Workspace Dynamics in Language Models
arXiv:2608.05160v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We introduce the Ignition Index (I), a validated scalar metric that operationalizes Global Workspace Theory's (GWT) all-or-none ignition prediction in transformer language models. The metric fits a four-parameter sigmoid to per-layer linear probe accuracy as a function of input signal strength, extracting steepness parameter beta-hat: high values indicate abrupt, ignition-like transitions; low values indicate graded build-up. Across 11 models spanning five architecture families, shuffled-label controls demonstrate 9.6-fold selectivity for genuine linguistic structure over spurious probe capacity (p < 0.001, Mann-Whitney U-test). We find: (1) Feedforward transformers exceed SSMs by 89% in aggregate beta-hat (p < 1e-13, Cohen's d = 0.52), with Mamba exhibiting near-linear profiles consistent with absent global broadcast. (2) Huginn-3.5B exhibits 2.12-fold higher ignition along its iteration axis than its depth axis, demonstrating that recur
A System for Train Condition Monitoring and Structural Health Assessment of Rail Vehicles
arXiv:2608.05221v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The ongoing digitalization of rail systems and the increasing use of artificial intelligence (AI) are fundamentally transforming the design, operation, and maintenance of rail vehicles. While fully automated operation at Grade of Automation 4 (GoA4) is well established in metro systems, its deployment in mainline rail remains limited. This is primarily due to stringent safety requirements and the complexity of open operational environments. Current perception systems based on cameras, radar, and lidar are effective in detecting objects but provide limited capability for reliably identifying impacts, collisions, and driving-over events. This paper presents a novel approach for real-time vehicle condition monitoring and impact detection that integrates structural sensor technologies with AI-based data analysis. The proposed framework addresses three key applications: (1) automated detection of impacts, structural damage, and driving-over ev
MS-MLB: An Open Machine Learning Benchmark for Blood-Based MS Classification
arXiv:2608.05196v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Multiple sclerosis (MS) is diagnosed through clinical assessment, magnetic resonance imaging, laboratory evidence when appropriate, and exclusion of better explanations. Blood RNA expression data may contain disease associated immune signal, but a blood RNA classifier cannot be treated as a replacement for clinical diagnosis. This paper presents MS-MLB (Multiple Sclerosis Machine Learning Benchmark), a reproducible open benchmark for machine learning based MS research classification from whole blood RNA expression data. MS-MLB uses the public GSE17048 cohort, converts it into an MS versus healthy control task, and evaluates multiple algorithms under a shared, leakage controlled pipeline that a researcher can rerun without reconfiguring the evaluation. The evaluation includes nested cross-validation, an untouched stratified holdout set, bootstrap confidence intervals, ROC and precision recall analysis, calibration measurement, and an explo
