One call made my day...
Can we move the implementation from Friday to Thursday? Answer, yes.
Can we arrange for a special set of backups before and after? Answer, yes... after I pick up my jaw when it hit the floor. (Normally we ask for just one before we start).

Spa-VLM: Stealthy Poisoning Attacks on RAG-based VLM
With the rapid development of the Vision-Language Model (VLM), significant progress has been made in Visual Question Answering (VQA) tasks. However, existing VLM often generate inaccurate answers due to a lack of up-to-date knowledge. To address this issue, recent research has introduced Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) techniques, commonly used in Large Language Models (LLM), into VLM, incorporating external multi-modal knowledge to enhance the accuracy and practicality of VLM systems.

Analysis of the Plancherel weight and factoriality of the group von Neumann algebras of non-unimodular totally disconnected groups
Let $G$ be a locally compact group, $L(G)$ be its group von Neumann algebra equipped with the Plancherel weight $φ_G$. In this paper, we consider the following two questions. (1) When is the restriction of $φ_G$ to the subalgebra generated by a closed subgroup $H$ semifinite? If so, is it equal (up to a constant) to $φ_H$? (2) When is $L(G)$ a factor? We give a complete answer to (1), and when $G$ is second countable, totally disconnected and admits a sufficiently large non-unimodular part, …
