When Personalization Tricks Detectors: The Feature-Inversion Trap in Machine-Generated Text Detection
Large language models (LLMs) have grown more powerful in language generation, producing fluent text and even imitating personal style. Yet, this ability also heightens the risk of identity impersonation. To the best of our knowledge, no prior work has examined personalized machine-generated text (MGT) detection. In this paper, we introduce \dataset, the first benchmark for evaluating detector robustness in personalized settings, built from literary and blog texts paired with their LLM-generated…

Card Dealing Math
Various card tricks involve under-down dealing, where alternatively one card is placed under the deck and the next card is dealt. We study how the cards need to be prepared in the deck to be dealt in order. The order in which the $N$ cards are prepared defines a permutation. In this work, we analyze general dealing patterns, considering properties of the resulting permutations. We give recursive formulas for these permutations, their inverses, the final dealt card, and the dealing order of th…

Holographic Radiance Cascades for 2D Global Illumination
Efficiently calculating global illumination has always been one of the greatest challenges in computer graphics. Algorithms for approximating global illumination have always struggled to run in realtime for fully dynamic scenes, and have had to rely heavily on stochastic raytracing, spatialtemporal denoising, or undersampled representations, resulting in much lower quality of lighting compared to reference solutions. Even though the problem of calculating global illumination in 2D is significan…

A symmetry approach to number tricks
We generalize the classical "1089-number trick", which states that a certain combination of addition, subtraction and swapping the digits of a three-digit number will always output 1089. More precisely, we show that any pair of zero divisors $f\circ g=0$ in the group ring ${\mathbb Z}[Σ_n]$ on the n-th symmetric group gives rise to a partition of the set of n-digit numbers into subsets $U_{\mathbf c}$ defined by linear inequalities, such that the zero divisors act constantly on each $U_{\mathb…

Guess my number! From binary tricks to general base representations, how many cards are needed?
We revisit the classic 'guess my number' game and extend it from its familiar binary form to representations in any integer base. For each base we derive formulas for the number of cards needed to identify a given integer and, conversely, for the largest integer that can be determined when the number of cards is fixed. Both analysis and graphical evidence show that base 2 is optimal in both directions: it requires the fewest cards to represent any specified integer and, for a fixed card count, …

Implicit Neural Point Cloud (INPC) is a recent hybrid representation that combines the expressiveness of neural fields with the efficiency of point-based rendering, achieving state-of-the-art image quality in novel view synthesis. However, as with other high-quality approaches that query neural networks during rendering, the practical usability of INPC is limited by comparatively slow rendering.

Neural Stochastic Differential Equations on Compact State-Spaces
Many modern probabilistic models rely on SDEs, but their adoption is hampered by instability, poor inductive bias outside bounded domains, and reliance on restrictive dynamics or training tricks. While recent work constrains SDEs to compact spaces using reflected dynamics, these approaches lack continuous dynamics and efficient high-order solvers, limiting interpretability and applicability. We propose a novel class of neural SDEs on compact polyhedral spaces with continuous dynamics, amenable …

High-dimensional measurements are often correlated which motivates their approximation by factor models. This holds also true when features are engineered via low-dimensional interactions or kernel tricks. This often results in over parametrization and requires a fast dimensionality reduction. We propose a simple technique to enhance the performance of supervised learning algorithms by augmenting features with factors extracted from design matrices and their transformations. This is implemented…
