Reminder over KetiKoti...
Alain Verheij @… op BS:
"Ketikoti mag net zo groot en nationaal worden gevierd als Dodenherdenking en Bevrijdingsdag. We zijn allemaal bevrijd van de slavernij, ook de nakomelingen van de schuldigen. Een mens die een ander mens ketent kan zelf niet vrij zijn. Ketikoti is niet ‘fijn voor jullie’, het is collectieve genezing&qu…

Advancing Learnable Multi-Agent Pathfinding Solvers with Active Fine-Tuning
Multi-agent pathfinding (MAPF) is a common abstraction of multi-robot trajectory planning problems, where multiple homogeneous robots simultaneously move in the shared environment. While solving MAPF optimally has been proven to be NP-hard, scalable, and efficient, solvers are vital for real-world applications like logistics, search-and-rescue, etc. To this end, decentralized suboptimal MAPF solvers that leverage machine learning have come on stage. Building on the success of the recently intro…

AIMSCheck: Leveraging LLMs for AI-Assisted Review of Modern Slavery Statements Across Jurisdictions
Modern Slavery Acts mandate that corporations disclose their efforts to combat modern slavery, aiming to enhance transparency and strengthen practices for its eradication. However, verifying these statements remains challenging due to their complex, diversified language and the sheer number of statements that must be reviewed. The development of NLP tools to assist in this task is also difficult due to a scarcity of annotated data. Furthermore, as modern slavery transparency legislation has bee…

Variational-Adiabatic Quantum Solver for Systems of Linear Equations with Warm Starts
We propose a revisited variational quantum solver for linear systems, designed to circumvent the barren plateau phenomenon by combining two key techniques: adiabatic evolution and warm starts. To this end, we define an initial Hamiltonian with a known ground state which is easily implemented on the quantum circuit, and then "adiabatically" evolve the Hamiltonian by tuning a control variable in such a way that the final ground state matches the solution to the given linear system. This evolution…

When GNNs Met a Word Equations Solver: Learning to Rank Equations (Extended Technical Report)
Nielsen transformation is a standard approach for solving word equations: by repeatedly splitting equations and applying simplification steps, equations are rewritten until a solution is reached. When solving a conjunction of word equations in this way, the performance of the solver will depend considerably on the order in which equations are processed. In this work, the use of Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) for ranking word equations before and during the solving process is explored. For this, a…
