Photonic quantum computing has recently emerged as a promising platform for hybrid quantum machine learning due to its native realization of linear-optical circuits and the computational complexity of boson sampling. However, despite growing interest in quantum methods for finance, the influence of photonic circuit des …
Biomedical large language model (LLM) evaluation requires auditable assessment of narrow, evolving, source-grounded subspecialty knowledge. Multiple sclerosis MRI (MS-MRI) provides a high-stakes textual-knowledge test case because correct reasoning requires current diagnostic criteria, standardized acquisition and repo …
We audit frequency and decoder-depth claims for AdvWave-P, an additive audio jailbreak, on Qwen2-Audio. The protocol masks frequency components of the perturbation in the short-time Fourier transform (STFT) domain and measures attack success and audio-span representations. On 520 AdvBench prompts, the primary judge lab …
Image-to-text jailbreaks place harmful intent in text, image content, or the relationship between them. We examine image-side factors across four published attack families on a 313-prompt StrongREJECT slice, using five multimodal models and an additional appendix evaluation of InternVL3.5-8B. The harmful instruction is …
Metal artifacts in postoperative musculoskeletal CT obscure bone-implant and adjacent soft-tissue interfaces. Many metal artifact reduction (MAR) methods require unavailable raw projections or learned models that may shift across scanners and implants. We present VoxelSynth3D, a training-free 3D image-domain framework …
Subject-independent motor-imagery (MI) EEG decoding can exhibit subject-level failures even when average performance appears acceptable: under subject shift, a decoder can become an overconfident near-one-class predictor. This is especially problematic in source-free deployment, where target-user labels are unavailable …
Practical assistive and rehabilitative brain--computer interfaces require subject-independent motor-imagery EEG (MI-EEG) decoders that generalize to new users under limited target-user data and constrained compute. However, held-out-subject performance can be overstated when test-subject information influences preproce …
Post-training quantization of vision--language models (VLMs) is typically assessed through aggregate task accuracy and memory savings, but preserving a headline score does not guarantee preservation of visual grounding behavior. We present GHOST-Q, a cross-precision controlled evaluation of three 8B VLM families under …
Deployment-oriented compression is attractive for resource-constrained brain--computer interfaces (BCIs), but whether it changes adversarial vulnerability remains unclear. On BCI Competition IV-2a, we compare 32-bit floating-point (FP32) EEGNet and ShallowConvNet models with global magnitude pruning and simulated INT8 …
