Dual-Stage Value-Guided Inference with Margin-Based Reward Adjustment for Fast and Faithful VLM Captioning
Despite significant advances in inference-time search for vision-language models (VLMs), existing approaches remain both computationally expensive and prone to unpenalized, low-confidence generations which often lead to persistent hallucinations. We introduce \textbf{Value-guided Inference with Margin-based Reward (ViMaR)}, a two-stage inference framework that improves both efficiency and output fidelity by combining a temporal-difference value model with a margin-aware reward adjustment. In th…

More than 343,000 hectares (848,000 acres) of land – the equivalent of nearly half a million football pitches [or a suare with sides 58.6 km long] – have been destroyed this year in Spain, setting a new national record, according to the European Forest Fire Information System (EFFIS)

Wildfires rage across Spain and Portugal as record area of land burned
Wildfires in Spain and Portugal burn record land and force evacuations as heatwave and drought spur the flames.

Harnessing the "Reactive Falling Effect" for rehabilitation and performance boosting
We present Logic Workout, a novel training method based on radical dynamic instability combining rolling, deformation and spring instability on small fitballs. By exploiting the "reactive falling effect", it re-engages innate balance mechanisms and forces real-time motor corrections, leading to better joint control, coordination, and movement precision. Preliminary results from a cohort of 18 participants show complete resolution of chronic pain, enhanced functional mobility, and surprising imp…

Cactus flower spaces and monodromy of Bethe vectors
We continue the study of cactus flower moduli spaces $\overline{F}_n$ and Gaudin models started in arXiv:2308.06880, arXiv:2407.06424. We show that isomorphism classes of operadic coverings of the real form $\overline{F}_n(\mathbb{R})$ are naturally one-to-one with equivalence classes of concrete coboundary monoidal categories (i.e. coboundary monoidal categories that admit a faithful monoidal functor to sets) with certain semisimplicity and finiteness conditions. Following the strategy of arXi…
