In high-stakes domains such as healthcare and finance, effective decision-making demands not just accurate outcomes but transparent and explainable reasoning. However, current language models often lack the structured deliberation needed…
LF is a dependent type theory in which many other formal systems can be conveniently embedded. However, correct use of LF relies on nontrivial metatheoretic developments such as proofs of correctness of decision procedures for LF's…
Foundational language models show a remarkable ability to learn new concepts during inference via context data. However, similar work for images lag behind. To address this challenge, we introduce FLoWN, a flow matching model that learns to…
Finding image correspondences remains a challenging problem in the presence of intra-class variations and large changes in scene layout.~Semantic flow methods are designed to handle images depicting different instances of the same object or…
We present Labeled Input Output in F* (LIO*), a verified framework that enforces information flow control (IFC) policies developed in F* and automatically extracted to C. Inspired by LIO, we encapsulated IFC policies into effects, but using…
Understanding how information is dynamically accumulated and transformed in human reasoning has long challenged cognitive psychology, philosophy, and artificial intelligence. Existing accounts, from classical logic to probabilistic models,…
In today's machine learning (ML) models, any part of the training data can affect the model output. This lack of control for information flow from training data to model output is a major obstacle in training models on sensitive data when…
Metaphorical meaning is not a flat mapping between concepts, but a complex cognitive phenomenon that integrates multiple levels of interpretation. In this paper, we propose a stratified model of metaphor processing that treats meaning as an…
This preprint specifies and defines all terms, properties, relationships and axioms of ThingFO (Thing Foundational Ontology) v1.3, which is a slightly updated version of its predecessor, ThingFO v1.2. It is an ontology for particular and…
Figures of speech such as metaphors, similes, and idioms are integral parts of human communication. They are ubiquitous in many forms of discourse, allowing people to convey complex, abstract ideas and evoke emotion. As figurative forms are…
In image restoration, single-step discriminative mappings often lack fine details via expectation learning, whereas generative paradigms suffer from inefficient multi-step sampling and noise-residual coupling. To address this dilemma, we…
TensorFlow is a popular cloud computing framework that targets machine learning applications. It separates the specification of application logic (in a dataflow graph) from the execution of the logic. TensorFlow's native runtime executes…
Truth refers to the satisfaction relation used to define the semantics of model-theoretic languages. The satisfaction relation for first order languages (truth classification), and the preservation of truth by first order interpretations…
The field of declarative stream programming (discrete time, clocked synchronous, modular, data-centric) is divided between the data-flow graph paradigm favored by domain experts, and the functional reactive paradigm favored by academics. In…
Conditional Flow Matching (CFM) unifies conventional generative paradigms such as diffusion models and flow matching. Interaction Field Matching (IFM) is a newer framework that generalizes Electrostatic Field Matching (EFM) rooted in…
Foundation models have demonstrated a great ability to achieve general human-level intelligence far beyond traditional approaches. As the technique keeps attracting attention from the AI community, an increasing number of foundation models…
Learning-based optical flow estimation has been dominated with the pipeline of cost volume with convolutions for flow regression, which is inherently limited to local correlations and thus is hard to address the long-standing challenge of…
The Internet of Things (IoT) has revolutionized various applications including agriculture, but it still faces challenges in data collection and understanding. This paper proposes a real-time framework with three additional semantic layers…
We present Functional Mean Flow (FMF) as a one-step generative model defined in infinite-dimensional Hilbert space. FMF extends the one-step Mean Flow framework to functional domains by providing a theoretical formulation for Functional…
This paper develops a refined version of TAPO-description logic for the analysis of information behavior. The framework is treated not as a single homogeneous object logic, but as a layered formalism consisting of a static descriptive layer…
