Intersectional Invariant Learning for Fair Deepfake Detection

arXiv:2610.37881v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Deepfake detection models achieve high overall accuracy but exhibit large performance disparities across demographic groups, causing some groups to experience substantially higher false-positive rates than others. Existing fairness-aware methods address this by constraining model outputs to equalize group predictions, but do not tackle the underlying feature-level bias. As a result, models may still rely on demographic characteristics, such as skin texture, as indirect cues for detecting manipulated content. To address this problem, we propose Intersectional Invariant Learning (IIL), a framework that improves feature learning rather than only adjusting model outputs. IIL alternates between identifying the most challenging demographic partitio

INC-MoE: Overlapping In-Network Collectives and Expert Computation for Expert-Parallel Mixture-of-Experts Inference

arXiv:2610.36339v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: In expert-parallel mixture-of-experts (MoE) serving, dispatch moves tokens to the accelerators hosting their selected experts, and combine returns expert outputs to each token's owner. Both operations lie on the critical path and can dominate MoE layer latency in multi-node deployments. We present INC-MoE, an expert-parallel MoE layer that offloads dispatch and combine to the network switch and overlaps both collectives with each other and with expert computation. Dispatch uses in-network AllGather through switch-side multicast, while combine uses in-network ReduceScatter through switch-side reduction. Both collectives use message semantics between the end hosts and the switch. Because the in-network collectives load opposite directions of ea

AK_QMUL at ArGuard Shared Tasks: A Single Fine-Tuned JAIS for Arabic Harmful-Prompt Detection

arXiv:2610.36360v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We present AK_QMUL's submissions to the ArGuard-2026 shared tasks on Arabic harmful-prompt detection: a binary safe/unsafe task (B1) and a seven-way harm-domain task (B2). Both submissions use one backbone -- JAIS-6.7B fine-tuned with 4-bit QLoRA and a linear classification head over its last-token representation. For B1 we train a four-way head that factors the label by dialect register {safe, unsafe} x {MSA, other}, we augment the training fold with MSA prompts from AraSafe, and decode with a plain argmax to score safe/unsafe. For B2 we fine-tune the same backbone as a seven-way classifier and average the softmax outputs of five random seeds. Both submissions ranked first on their track, with macro-F1 0.984 on B1 and 0.790 on B2. We report

PRISM: Promoting Sampling Diversity of Large Language Models with Implicit Stochastic Modulation

arXiv:2610.32101v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) exhibit mode collapse, where their output distribution concentrates on familiar semantic modes. When diversity disappears, repeated sampling becomes semantic repetition rather than discovery, making rare but stronger solutions unlikely to surface and leaving self-evolution and continual learning difficult to sustain. Most remedies intervene only at inference time, shaping sam- ples without making diversity a model capability. We propose PRISM, a training-time framework that internalizes diversity within the model. PRISM combines (i) submodular curation that pairs each prompt with diverse-yet-correct multi-teacher solutions, and (ii) stochastic embedding modulation, which turns special-token perturbations into impl

PaperFormalizer: Author-in-the-Loop Autoformalization of Research Papers in Lean

arXiv:2610.31810v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Even a carefully proofread paper can leave small gaps in its proofs or its stated assumptions. We introduce PaperFormalizer, a Lean-based agentic pipeline that helps authors find and close such gaps in their own papers and turn each paper into a Lean-verified version. Starting from the LaTeX source, PaperFormalizer transcribes the paper into a dependency graph of statements, audits each statement in natural language for faithfulness, ambiguity and correctness, and then formalizes and proves the statements in Lean against Mathlib, optional domain libraries and the author's personal toolkit. Only the author knows what a statement is meant to say and how a formalization gap in a result is best fixed. The pipeline therefore stops and asks the aut
