Abstract: The separation of overlapping objects presents a significant challenge in scientific imaging. While deep learning segmentation-regression algorithms can predict pixel-wise intensities, they typically treat all regions equally rather than prioritizing overlap regions where attribution is most ambiguous. Recent advances in instance segmentation show that weighting regions of pixel overlap in training can improve segmentation boundary predictions in regions of overlap, but this idea has not yet been extended to segmentation regression. We address this with Overlap-Aware Segmentation of ImageS (OASIS): a new segmentation-regression framework with a weighted loss function designed to prioritize regions of object-overlap during training, enabling extraction of pixel intensities and topological features from heavily obscured objects. We demonstrate OASIS in the context of the MIGDAL experiment, which aims to directly image the Migdal effect--a rare process where electron emission is induced by nuclear scattering--in a low-pressure optical time projection chamber. This setting poses an extreme test case, as the target for reconstruction is a faint electron recoil track which is often heavily-buried within the order(s)-of-magnitude brighter nuclear recoil track. Compared to unweighted segmentation regression, we demonstrate OASIS's novel overlap region-targeted loss function weight to be the single most important training weight for improving intensity and topological reconstructions of the low-energy electron tracks that tend to be most dominated by pixel overlap. Averaging over eight training campaigns, we further show the addition of overlap-targeted weights to improve median intensity reconstruction errors from -41.1% to -13.3% for these low-energy electrons. These performance gains demonstrate OASIS as a generalizable methodology for recovering obscured signals in overlap-dominated regions.

Abstract: Biomedical Vision--Language Models (VLMs) have shown remarkable promise in few-shot medical diagnosis but face a critical bottleneck: \textit{fragility to prompt variations}.Existing adaptation frameworks typically optimize visual and textual prompts as independent streams, relying on ideal ``Golden Prompts''. In clinical reality, where descriptions are often noisy and heterogeneous, this modality isolation leads to unstable cross-modal alignment.
To address this, we propose BiomedAP, a vision-informed dual-anchor framework with gated cross-modal fusion.BiomedAP enforces synergistic alignment through two mechanisms: (1) Gated Cross-Modal Fusion, which enables layer-wise interaction between modalities, acting as a dynamic noise regulator to suppress irrelevant textual cues; and (2) a Dual-Anchor Constraint that regularizes learnable prompts toward stable semantic centroids derived from both expert templates (High Anchors) and few-shot visual prototypes (Low Anchors).
Extensive experiments across 11 benchmarks demonstrate that BiomedAP consistently surpasses baselines, achieving competitive few-shot accuracy and markedly enhanced robustness under prompt perturbations.

Abstract: Deep neural networks achieve outstanding performance across vision and language tasks, yet their large parameter counts limit deployment in resource-constrained settings. One-shot pruning reduces model size without retraining, but models trained with standard objectives often suffer substantial accuracy drops under aggressive sparsity. Prior work mitigates this drop along two directions: regularizers such as $\ell_1$ and DeepHoyer that shape the weight distribution during training, and pruning-robust optimizers such as SAM, CrAM, and S$^2$SAM that flatten the loss landscape. However, existing regularizers either shrink all weights uniformly ($\ell_1$) or induce scale-invariant sparsity (DeepHoyer), without concentrating weight energy onto a small set of informative parameters. We propose a Weight Concentration Regularizer (WCR), a training-time regularizer that amplifies the magnitude of a small subset of parameters while driving the remainder toward zero, so that magnitude pruning predominantly removes parameters with negligible functional contribution. We provide a convergence analysis and evaluate WCR on LLM fine-tuning, image classification, and medical segmentation, demonstrating consistent improvements in pruning robustness across architectures and compatibility with existing pruning-robust optimizers.

Abstract: Deep learning, particularly with the advancement of Large Language Models, has transformed biomolecular modeling, with protein language models such as ESM inspiring emerging RNA language models such as RiNALMo. Recent work has begun applying sparse autoencoders (SAEs) to protein language model representations, exploring representation-level interpretability in biomolecular models. Here, we explore whether SAEs can provide interpretable feature decompositions of RNA language model representations, while also examining their limitations in this setting. We present SAE-RNA, interpretability model that analyzes RiNALMo representations and maps them to known human-level biological features. Rather than claiming definitive biological concept discovery, our study frames SAE-based analysis as a representation-level probe for characterizing how RNA language models organize biological information internally. More broadly, SAE-RNA provides a feature-level framework for comparing RNA groups and identifying sparse representation components associated with RNA family identity or structural context.

Abstract: We introduce HYPERPOSE, a novel 3D human pose estimation framework that performs spatio-temporal reasoning entirely within the Lorentz model of hyperbolic space $\mathbb{H}^d$ to natively preserve the hierarchical tree topology of the human skeleton. Current state-of-the-art pose estimators aim to capture complex joint dynamics by relying on transformers and graph convolutional networks. Since these architectures operate exclusively in Euclidean space which fundamentally mismatches the inherent tree structure of the human body, these methods inevitably suffer from exponential volume distortion and struggle to maintain structural coherence. To this end, we depart from flat spaces and aim to improve geometric fidelity with Hyperbolic Kinematic Phase-Space Attention (HKPSA), natively embedding complex joint relationships without distortion, alongside a multi-scale windowed hyperbolic attention mechanism that efficiently models temporal dynamics in $O(TW)$ complexity. Furthermore, to overcome the well-known instability of training non-Euclidean manifolds, HYPERPOSE introduces a novel Riemannian loss suite and an uncertainty-weighted curriculum, enforcing physical geodesic constraints like bone length and velocity consistency. Extensive evaluations on the Human3.6M and MPI-INF-3DHP datasets demonstrate that HYPERPOSE achieves state-of-the-art structural and temporal coherence, significantly reducing both volume distortion and velocity error, while establishing new state-of-the-art benchmarks in overall positional accuracy.

Abstract: Memory systems often organize user-agent interactions as retrievable external memory and are crucial for long-running agents by overcoming the limited context windows of LLMs. However, existing memory systems invoke LLMs to process every incoming interaction for memory extraction, and such an eager memory consolidation scheme leads to substantial token consumption. To tackle this problem, we propose RecMem by rethinking when memory consolidation should be conducted. RecMem stores incoming interactions in a subconscious memory layer and encode them using lightweight embedding models for retrieval. LLMs are only invoked to extract episodic and semantic memory when sustained recurrence are observed for semantically similar interactions. Such recurrence-based consolidation works because these interactions correspond to a semantic cluster with rich information and thus are worth extraction and summarization. To improve accuracy, RecMem also incorporates a semantic refinement mechanism that recovers the fine-grained facts omitted by memory extraction. Experiments show that RecMem reduces the memory construction token cost of three SOTA memory systems by up to 87% while exceeding their accuracy.

Abstract: The paper \cite{M0} studied, for a \emph{complex} linear ordinary differential equation $y^\prime(t)=Ay(t)$, the long-time propagation to the solution $y(t)$ of a perturbation of the initial value. By measuring the perturbations with relative errors, this paper introduced a directional pointwise condition number, defined for a specific initial value and for a specific direction of perturbation of this initial value, and a pointwise condition number, defined for a specific initial value and the worst-case scenario for the direction of perturbation. The asymptotic (long-time) behaviors of these two condition numbers were determined. The present paper analyzes such asymptotic behaviors in depth, for a \emph{real} linear ordinary differential equation in a generic case.

Abstract: Modern pedestrian dead reckoning (PDR) systems rely on fusing noisy and biased estimates of position, velocity, and calibrated orientation derived from loosely coupled sensors to determine the current pose of a localized object. However, discrepancies in the sampling rates of sensor-specific estimation methods and unreliable transmission pose significant challenges. And traditional methods often fail to effectively fuse multimodal sensor data during dynamic movements characterized by high accelerations, velocities, and rapidly varying orientations. To address these limitations, we propose a simple recurrent neural network (RNN) architecture capable of implicitly forecasting asynchronous sensor data streams from diverse estimation methods along reference trajectories. The proposed approach introduces PDRNN, a modular hybrid AI-assisted PDR system that handles each component as an independent ensemble of machine learning (ML) models to estimate both key parameter means and variances. Separate ML-based models are employed to estimate orientation, (un)directed velocity or distance from acceleration and gyroscope data, with optional absolute positioning from synchronized radio systems such as 5G for stabilization. A final fusion model combines these outputs, position, velocity, and orientation, while using uncertainty estimates to enhance system robustness. The modular design allows individual components to be updated, fine-tuned, or replaced without affecting the entire system. Experiments on dynamic sports movement data show that PDRNN achieves superior accuracy and precision compared to classic and ML-based methods, effectively avoiding error accumulation common in black-box approaches. And PDRNN offers forecast capabilities and better component control despite increased system complexity.

Abstract: AI models are increasingly deployed in cloud-native environments to support scalable and automated services. However, while platforms such as Kubernetes provide strong infrastructure orchestration, security mechanisms specifically designed to protect deployed AI models remain limited. This paper presents security measures for AI models deployed in Kubernetes clusters. The proposed architecture integrates Kubeflow-based MLOps to automatically detect adversarial attacks during the inference phase and trigger defense mechanisms that preserve the model's accuracy and reliability. Specifically, a Fast Gradient Sign Method (FGSM) attack is applied at inference time, and a Projected Gradient Descent (PGD)-based adversarial training defense is automatically deployed when a degradation in accuracy is detected. The experimental results indicate that the deployed defense robustifies the model, significantly recovering accuracy relative to the degradation caused by the attack.

Abstract: This paper presents the real-world implementation and field validation of a user-aware bidirectional electric vehicle (EV) charging system developed within the Mobilities for EU and DymoBat projects in Dresden. Building on earlier simulation frameworks, the system enables transition from conceptual models to operational deployment in urban environments.
To support grid flexibility and sustainable mobility, the solution combines real-time vehicle and user data with a centralized optimization platform to enable dynamic charging and discharging decisions. The architecture integrates a wireless On-Board Diagnostic II (OBD-II) interface and an open middleware node connected via a 5G campus network, allowing early access to vehicle state-of-charge before plug-in. A tablet-based interface captures user preferences such as departure time and energy demand, which are incorporated into the optimization together with grid conditions.
A key contribution is a multi-level communication architecture linking the EV, charging station, user interface, and grid control center using the Open Charge Point Protocol (OCPP). The system integrates software, embedded hardware, and network communication for real-time charging management.
Field deployment at Ostra Sport Park in Dresden demonstrates feasibility, improved load balancing, and robust vehicle-to-grid operation. The results show that early data acquisition and predictive control can enhance system efficiency. This work provides a practical benchmark for positive energy districts and future urban e-mobility systems.

Abstract: Protein function is driven by cohesive substructures, such as catalytic triads, binding pockets, and structural motifs, that occupy only a small fraction of a protein's residues. Yet existing pipelines built on protein encoders do not model proteins at the substructure level, leaving the central biological question unanswered: which substructure of a protein is responsible for its function? We introduce BioBlobs, an encoder-agnostic, end-to-end differentiable framework that compresses a protein into a small set of cohesive substructures (blobs) and predicts function from these blobs alone, so that each blob corresponds to a candidate functional region. Across diverse protein function prediction tasks and multiple sequence- and structure-based encoders, BioBlobs matches or exceeds strong baselines while operating on only a small fraction of residues. The discovered blobs adapt their spatial scale to the task, ranging from local catalytic sites to entire structural domains. Trained only on protein-level labels, BioBlobs recovers experimentally annotated catalytic sites in the M-CSA database, demonstrating unsupervised functional substructure discovery and opening a path to large-scale functional site discovery across the unannotated proteome.

Abstract: This paper presents a comprehensive analysis of neural activation patterns across six distinct large language model (LLM) architectures, examining their performance on twelve cognitive task categories. Through systematic measurement of final activation values, attention entropy, and sparsity patterns, we reveal fundamental differences in how encoder and decoder architectures process diverse cognitive tasks. Our analysis of 144 task-model combinations demonstrates that mathematical reasoning consistently produces the highest attention entropy across all architectures, while decoder models exhibit significantly higher sparsity patterns compared to encoder models. The findings provide critical insights into the computational characteristics of modern language models and their task-specific neural behaviors, with implications for model selection and optimization in big data applications.

Abstract: Process Reward Models (PRMs) provide step-level feedback for reasoning, but current PRMs usually output only a single reward score for each step. Downstream methods must therefore treat imperfect step-level reward predictions as reliable decision signals, with no indication of when these predictions should be trusted. We propose BetaPRM, a distributional PRM that predicts both a step-level success probability and the reliability of that prediction. Given step-success supervision from Monte Carlo continuations, BetaPRM learns a Beta belief that explains the observed number of successful continuations through a Beta-Binomial likelihood, rather than regressing to the finite-sample success ratio as a point target. This learned reliability signal indicates when a step reward should be trusted, enabling downstream applications to distinguish reliable rewards from uncertain ones. As one application, we introduce Adaptive Computation Allocation (ACA) for PRM-guided Best-of-N reasoning. ACA uses the learned reliability signal to stop when a high-reward solution is reliable and to spend additional computation on uncertain candidate prefixes. Experiments across four backbones and four reasoning benchmarks show that BetaPRM improves PRM-guided Best-of-N selection while preserving standard step-level error detection. Built on this signal, ACA improves the accuracy--token tradeoff over fixed-budget Best-of-16, reducing token usage by up to 33.57% while improving final-answer accuracy.

Abstract: We introduce the Estimated Dynamic Equilibrium Model (EDEM), an agent-based framework that treats supply and demand as a coupled stochastic process driven by heterogeneous, noisy agent valuations. The model's primary technical contribution is the identification of a generative mechanism for persistent disequilibrium: when market-clearing prices are sequentially sampled from the upper tail of noisy bid distributions and recycled as inputs for future valuations, expected prices drift upward despite strictly zero-mean estimation errors. We derive this order-statistic bias in closed form for i.i.d. uniform bids and use simulations to show that compounding this bias across epochs yields exponential price growth without requiring assumptions of investor optimism or irrationality. This framework extends Miller's divergence-of-opinion theory to a dynamic setting, recovering Walrasian equilibrium and Miller's static premium as limiting cases. Through controlled experiments and sensitivity analysis on a simulated real-estate neighborhood, we identify six distinct regimes-ranging from band-stability to runaway bubbles-emerging from a single agent ruleset. These results offer a potential explanation for the contradictory findings in the empirical divergence-of-opinion literature and suggest that machine-learning valuation algorithms may inadvertently amplify this inherent statistical bias.

Abstract: Despite recent progress in constructing generalizable parallel algorithm portfolios (PAPs), no general-purpose approach is yet available for multi-objective binary optimization problems (MOBOPs). To fill this gap, this paper proposes domain-agnostic co-evolution of parameterized search for multi-objective binary optimization~(DACMO), which features two technical innovations. First, we propose a neural instance representation architecture that decouples domain-invariant and instance-specific features, enabling class-consistent instance generation across varying dimensions without problem-specific instance generators. Second, we introduce LLM-based automatic search operator generation into PAP construction, extending the search space from parameter tuning of predefined templates to operator-level algorithm design. We evaluate DACMO on four representative MOBOP classes to demonstrate its effectiveness as a general-purpose PAP construction method: the multi-objective match max problem~(MMMP), the multi-objective knapsack problem~(MKP), the multi-objective contamination control problem (MCCP), and the multi-objective complementary influence maximization problem~(MCIMP). Experimental results show that DACMO can be directly applied to all four problem classes without modification, outperforms PAPs built from classic MOEA templates, and achieves performance comparable to a privileged state-of-the-art baseline that relies on manually designed problem-specific instance generators, while outperforming it on two of the four evaluated problem classes.

Abstract: Autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) swarms are emerging as intelligent underwater networks, where each node must sense, communicate, process local data, and make decisions under severe acoustic constraints. Persistent underwater target tracking is a typical task with moving targets, changing communication topology, intermittent acoustic links, and limited observation for each AUV. Multi-agent reinforcement learning (MARL) is a natural candidate for distributed tracking, yet existing studies still lack a unified open-source platform for evaluating different MARL algorithms under six-degree-of-freedom AUV dynamics. In addition, policies trained with raw geometric states and low-level force actions often struggle to represent task phases, observation reliability, link quality, and local cooperation roles. This paper addresses these issues by developing an open-source MARL-AUV platform that integrates DI-engine with a six-degree-of-freedom underwater AUV target-tracking simulator. To the best of our knowledge, it is the first open platform that connects a public MARL training framework with physically modeled AUV swarm-based tasks, and provides a unified experimental protocol for fair training, testing, and comparison of representative RL and MARL algorithms. Based on this platform, we propose STG-MAPPO, a Semantic Task Graph-enhanced variant of Multi-Agent Proximal Policy Optimization. STG-MAPPO builds semantic policy inputs from tracking diagnostics, task phases, observation confidence, link availability, neighbor tracking quality, and local role advantage. A compact semantic task graph links communication-constrained network states to decentralized actor decisions, and a velocity-level action abstraction maps high-level cooperative decisions to executable six-degree-offreedom AUV control inputs.The code is available at https://github.com/dasjsaj/MARL-AUV.

Abstract: Extensive data processing is becoming commonplace in many fields of science. Distributing data to processing sites and providing methods to share the data with collaborators efficiently has become essential. The Open Science Data Federation (OSDF) builds upon the successful StashCache project to create a global data access network. The OSDF expands the StashCache project to add new data origins and caches, access methods, monitoring, and accounting mechanisms. Additionally, the OSDF has become an integral part of the U.S. national cyberinfrastructure landscape due to the sharing requirements of recent NSF solicitations, which the OSDF is uniquely positioned to enable. The OSDF continues to be utilized by many research collaborations and individual users, which pull the data to many research infrastructures and projects.

Abstract: In this paper, we present an accurate numerical method for the time-harmonic Maxwell's equations for bi-periodic multilayered media with quasi-periodic incident waves using the Method of Fundamental Solutions in conjunction with a periodization scheme. Following an approach used in acoustic scattering problems, the electric and magnetic fields in each layer are expressed as a sum of near and distant interactions. The near interaction comprises interactions between the unit cell and its nearest neighboring copies, while the distant interaction is approximated by proxy source points placed on spheres surrounding the unit cell. Imposing continuity of tangential components at the layer interface, quasi-periodicity conditions on the walls of the unit cell, and Rayleigh-Bloch expansion for the radiation condition yields a system of equations for the unknown coefficients, which can be solved by Schur complement and a backward-stable solver. The scheme is verified with known solutions and exhibits exponential convergence close to $10^{-14}$ for both single and multiple interfaces. An example with 39 interfaces is presented to demonstrate the solver's performance. The paper provides promising results for extending this method to a fast and accurate boundary integral equation solver for many cutting-edge applications involving a large number of layers in electromagnetics and optics.

Abstract: Opening heavy, self closing doors, especially those that require pulling remains a long standing challenge in robotics. Humans naturally employ both arms in a dexterous manner, rotating the handle, widening the gap, holding the door, switching arms when needed, and moving through while maintaining clearance. To replicate such behaviors, a robot must perform a long sequence of motions spanning multiple stages and interactions with different parts of the door. Traditional approaches rely on state machines that transition between manually defined stages (e.g., pulling after the knob is rotated, passing after the gap is sufficiently wide). While intuitive, these methods lack robustness, as hand crafted trajectories fail to generalize to the diversity of real world conditions without extensive engineering effort. Recent advances in imitation learning offer a scalable alternative, yet no existing visual action model has demonstrated simultaneous coordination of a nonholonomic base and dual arms for the complete door opening and passing task. In this paper, we tackle this complex, highly constrained problem using a diffusion based visuomotor control policy. Our results demonstrate that a single end to end policy can be learned to execute long horizon tasks requiring tight coordination between manipulation and locomotion. The resulting policy not only achieves a high success rate in opening and traversing damped pull doors but also demonstrates strong robustness to external disturbances capabilities that are difficult to realize with traditional methods.

Abstract: Humans abstract experiences into structured representations to facilitate pattern inference and knowledge transfer. While the hippocampal-entorhinal (HPC-MEC) circuit is known to represent both spatial and conceptual spaces, the mechanisms for concurrently extracting abstract structures from continuous, high-dimensional dynamics remain poorly understood. We propose a brain-inspired hierarchical model that simultaneously infers latent transitions and constructs a predictive visual world model. Our architecture employs an inverse model for structural extraction alongside an HPC-MEC coupling model that dissociates relational structures (MEC) from integrated episodic scenes (HPC). Using primitive transformation dynamics as a benchmark, we demonstrate the model's capacity for structural abstraction. By leveraging velocity-driven path integration, the framework enables robust prediction and structural reuse across diverse contexts, thereby achieving structural generalization. This work provides a novel computational framework for understanding how brain-inspired, self-supervised learning of world models facilitates the acquisition of reusable abstract knowledge.

Abstract: We propose using validated behavioral hypotheses as a lens for evaluating human-likeness in LLM-based agents. Our key idea is simple: If an agent is human-like, a population of such agents should reach the same inferential conclusion as the human population when run through the same experiment. Decades of social science have produced many such validated findings, each anchored to concrete experimental protocols and robustly established through independent replication. This yields an evaluation that is objective, decomposable, and scalable. We operationalize this lens through HumanStudy-Bench, an open platform that turns published human-subject studies into reusable simulation environments and administers the evaluation to configurable agents. It scores agent-human alignment on two metrics: the Probability Alignment Score (PAS) for inferential agreement and the Effect Consistency Score (ECS) for effect-size agreement. We curated an initial suite of 12 studies whose hypotheses are robustly established through independent replication, and evaluated 10 models under 4 agent designs. Results show that agent responses polarize between full replication and complete failure; agent design influences alignment more than model scale, but its effect is non-monotonic.

Abstract: Survival analysis provides a powerful statistical framework for modeling time-to-event outcomes in the presence of censoring. However, selecting an appropriate estimator from the many specialized survival approaches often requires substantial methodological and domain expertise. We introduce SurvivalPFN, a prior-data fitted network that amortizes Bayesian inference for censored observations through in-context learning. SurvivalPFN is pretrained on a diverse family of synthetic, identifiable, and right-censored data-generating processes, enabling it to amortize survival analysis in a single forward pass during inference. As a result, the model adapts to the effective complexity of each dataset without task-specific training or hyperparameter tuning, avoids restrictive parametric assumptions, and produces calibrated survival distributions. In a large-scale benchmark spanning 61 datasets, 21 methods, and 5 evaluation metrics, SurvivalPFN achieves strong predictive performance and often improves upon established survival models. These results suggest that SurvivalPFN offers a principled and practical foundation model for survival analysis, with potential applications in high-impact domains such as healthcare, finance, and engineering (https://github.com/rgklab/SurvivalPFN).

Abstract: In professional sports, a team has clinched the playoffs if they are guaranteed a postseason spot, regardless of the outcomes of any remaining games. As the season progresses, sports fans and other stakeholders are interested in precisely when, and under what conditions, their team will clinch the playoffs. In this paper, we investigate playoff clinching in the context of the National Hockey League (NHL), where it is computationally challenging to produce clinching scenarios due, in part, to complex tie-breakers. We present an algorithm that determines under which combinations of game outcomes in the next $n$ days a team will clinch the playoffs (i.e., "$n$-day lookahead clinching"). Our approach is a custom tree search which employs various preprocessing techniques, pruning strategies, and node ordering heuristics to efficiently explore the space of possible outcomes. The tree search leverages a constraint programming (CP)-based subroutine for inference that determines if a team has clinched the playoffs for some snapshot in time of the regular season (i.e., "0-day lookahead clinching"). This CP subroutine aims to find a counter-example in which the team being evaluated is eliminated, taking into account qualification rules and the NHL's extensive list of tie-breakers. We validate the efficacy of our algorithm using hundreds of scenarios based on public NHL data for the seasons 2021-22 through 2024-25. The methods introduced can be readily extended to other metrics of interest, including mathematical proof of playoff elimination, clinching the President's Trophy, as well as clinching (or being eliminated from clinching) any other seed in the standings.

Abstract: As deep learning models are deployed on resource constrained edge platforms in autonomous driving systems, reli able knowledge of hardware behavior under resource degradation becomes an essential requirement. Therefore, we introduce a systematic characterization of CPU load, GPU utilization, RAM consumption, power draw, throughput, and thermal behaviour of TensorRT-optimized YOLOv10s, YOLOv11s and YOLO2026n pipelines running on NVIDIA Jetson Nano under a large-scale fault injection campaign targeting both lane-following and ob ject detection tasks. Faults are synthesized using a decoupled framework that leverages large language models (LLMs) and latent diffusion models (LDMs), based on original data from our JetBot platform data collection. Results show that across both tasks and both models the inference engines keep GPU occupancy stable, temperature rise under control, and power consumption within safe limits, while memory usage settles into a consistent release pattern after the initial warm-up phase. Object detection tends to show somewhat more variability in memory and thermal behavior, yet both tasks point to the same conclusion: the TensorRT pipelines hold up well even when the input data is heavily degraded. These findings offer a hardware-level view of model reliability that sits alongside, rather than against, the broader body of work focused on inference performance at the edge.
