Videofluoroscopic Swallowing Study (VFSS) is one of the gold standard for diagnosing swallowing disorders, providing dynamic X-ray imaging of the swallowing process. Automated kinematic analysis in VFSS relies fundamentally on precise anatomical keypoint localization. However, existing studies focus on limited keypoint …

Accurately modeling and tracking the deformation of soft tissue is critical for a wide range of interventional and surgical procedures. However, current methods struggle in scenarios involving topological changes, such as cutting and dissection, due to the inherent non-linearity and discontinuity introduced by explicit …

Large Language Models (LLMs) are increasingly used for automated algorithm design. However the computational cost of evaluating the generated algorithms can be excessive. We consider the common LLM-driven automated algorithm design (LLM4AD) setting in which a candidate algorithm is evaluated by aggregating its performa …

Symbolic Regression (SR) is a data-driven method for scientific discovery which searches for interpretable analytical relationships within data. Recently, Large Language Models (LLMs) have also had a significant impact on scientific discovery, enabling the automation of various stages of the process. For these reasons, …

Coding harnesses shape how autonomous coding agents translate model capabilities into long-horizon software-engineering performance, yet existing work typically evaluates harnesses as monolithic systems, leaving the effectiveness of individual components unclear. To enable component-level comparisons, we study this que …
