Less Adaptation, More Transfer: Spectral View Randomization for 3D Point Cloud Transfer Attacks

Yang Gao, Jingyi Liu, Hongjia Liu, Hui Li, Jian Xu

Point cloud perception is important in autonomous driving, robotics, and other security-critical 3D systems, yet learned point cloud classifiers remain vulnerable to transferable adversarial perturbations. A central difficulty in transfer-based black-box attacks is surrogate over…

AIGB-R1: Self-Evolving Generative Auto-Bidding via Hierarchical Planner-Executor Optimization

Yuejia Dou, Hesong Wang, Xinyu Zhang, Tianyu Wang, Zhilin Zhang, Chuan Yu, et al.

Auto-bidding plays an essential role in online advertising, automatically adjusting bids for advertisers to optimize their commercial goals. The emerging AI-Generated Bidding (AIGB) paradigm widely adopts generative modeling to optimize bidding strategies, yet suffers from the li…

Entanglement as a Structural Complexity Axis: A PAC-Bayesian View of Generalization in Quantum Policies and Value Functions

Jian Xu, Delu Zeng, John Paisley, Qibin Zhao

Parameterized quantum circuits (PQCs) are increasingly used as policies and value functions in quantum reinforcement learning, yet it remains unclear when and why quantum policies generalize. We give a PAC-Bayesian account in which generalization is governed not by the raw number…

When Can You Debias an LLM Judge? Identifiability Limits, a Test, and Designs for Top-k Ranking

Jian Xu, Delu Zeng, John Paisley, Qibin Zhao

Large language models (LLMs) are increasingly used as cheap, scalable judges that compare candidate outputs pairwise. Because such judges prefer verbose or well-formatted answers, the natural fix is to add bias covariates to a Bradley--Terry model and estimate the bias away. We s…

Calibration, Not Compilation: Detecting and Repairing Misspecified Probabilistic Programs Written by Language Models

Jian Xu, Delu Zeng, John Paisley, Qibin Zhao

Language models increasingly write probabilistic programs (in NumPyro, Stan, or Pyro), but a program that compiles, runs, and passes every unit test can still be \emph{statistically} wrong -- a Gaussian likelihood for heavy-tailed data, a Poisson for over-dispersed counts, an inv…

Active Quantum Kernel Acquisition for Gaussian Process Regression

Jian Xu, Artur Miroszewski, John Paisley, Delu Zeng, Qibin Zhao

Quantum kernel estimation on near-term hardware is shot-budgeted: every entry of the kernel Gram matrix is a Bernoulli expectation that must be sampled with a finite number of circuit executions. Recent work on quantum kernel classification has shown that allocating shots non-uni…
