We propose a framework for reward allocation in fully delegated AI cooperatives where humans are represented by agents that contribute data and participate in model updates under heterogeneous value constraints. The key idea is to credit only those updates that remain admissible after screening them against each principal's value profile. We formulate value-conditioned gradient filtering, online marginal contribution signals, and cumulative revenue settlement within a traversal learning (TL) substrate. TL is especially attractive here because it performs decentralized backpropagation without the quality loss associated with aggregation-centric distributed learning and, we argue, offers a finer attribution substrate than FedAvg-style federated learning by preserving explicit traversal and gradient paths. The framework is positioned against data valuation, federated contribution estimation, personalized federated learning, and pluralistic alignment.
MEMEs are widely used on the internet and often carry strong elements of sarcasm or irony. Understanding their hidden meanings typically requires a joint interpretation of text and vision. Existing methods focus on the dual-stream vision-language model to extract the visual and t…
This letter proposes the Predictive Lightweight Multi-Agent Reinforcement Learning (PL-MARL) framework to ensure resilient coverage in bandwidth-constrained UAV swarms. To counter coordination collapse caused by sparse signaling and information aging, we introduce a Kinematic-Awa…
To effectively integrate AI into high-stakes, critical environments such as healthcare, autonomous driving, and aviation--and to advance toward higher levels of automation and seamless human-AI collaboration--building trust in AI-driven solutions is essential. Trust, in turn, is…
Multimodal chain-of-thought (CoT) reasoning integrates visual and textual cues through step-by-step inference. In small models with limited token budgets, modality-interaction fusion often suppresses tiny cross-modal differences. In particular, multimodal CoT often struggles when…
We show how large-deviation statistics allows one to obtain reliable estimates of the multiplicity of stable fixed-points in a model of neural ordinary differential equations previously employed in computational tasks. The result is obtained by developing a suitable perturbative…
Geometry Foundation Models (GFMs) have substantially advanced monocular 3D reconstruction, yet extending this capability to 4D dynamic understanding remains a fundamental challenge. Most existing motion perception methods (e.g., sparse tracking, dense point-wise flow) treat motio…
