Quantum Sampling and Moment Estimation for Transformed Gaussian Random Fields
We present a quantum algorithm for efficiently sampling transformed Gaussian random fields on $d$-dimensional domains, based on an enhanced version of the classical moving average method. Pointwise transformations enforcing boundedness are essential for using Gaussian random fields in quantum computation and arise naturally, for example, in modeling coefficient fields representing microstructures in partial differential equations. Generating this microstructure from its few statistical paramete…

GitChameleon: Evaluating AI Code Generation Against Python Library Version Incompatibilities
The rapid evolution of software libraries poses a considerable hurdle for code generation, necessitating continuous adaptation to frequent version updates while preserving backward compatibility. While existing code evolution benchmarks provide valuable insights, they typically lack execution-based evaluation for generating code compliant with specific library versions. To address this, we introduce GitChameleon, a novel, meticulously curated dataset comprising 328 Python code completion proble…

ChatGPT on the Road: Leveraging Large Language Model-Powered In-vehicle Conversational Agents for Safer and More Enjoyable Driving Experience
Studies on in-vehicle conversational agents have traditionally relied on pre-scripted prompts or limited voice commands, constraining natural driver-agent interaction. To resolve this issue, the present study explored the potential of a ChatGPT-based in-vehicle agent capable of carrying continuous, multi-turn dialogues. Forty drivers participated in our experiment using a motion-based driving simulator, comparing three conditions (No agent, Pre-scripted agent, and ChatGPT-based agent) as a with…

The 11-loop graph cohomology
We compute the Kontsevich graph cohomology in loop order 11, and for some degrees in higher loop order. We apply our results to discuss a conjecture of F. Brown, providing a counterexample to a strong version of the conjecture.

Explicit Reasoning Makes Better Judges: A Systematic Study on Accuracy, Efficiency, and Robustness
As Large Language Models (LLMs) are increasingly adopted as automated judges in benchmarking and reward modeling, ensuring their reliability, efficiency, and robustness has become critical. In this work, we present a systematic comparison of "thinking" and "non-thinking" LLMs in the LLM-as-a-judge paradigm using open-source Qwen 3 models of relatively small sizes (0.6B, 1.7B, and 4B parameters). We evaluate both accuracy and computational efficiency (FLOPs) on RewardBench tasks, and further exa…

Right now it does do a limited form of isolation by putting everything in a temp directory, but of course this just makes sure you declare your header files. It doesn’t do anything to stop you referencing stuff by absolute path, or using the wrong compiler version, or depending on the system time, or hitting the network, or…
