Multi-path reasoning methods such as self-consistency (SC) sample $K$ reasoning paths and choose the most frequent answer. However, their gains quickly plateau as $K$ increases, and existing methods do not predict when this saturation will occur. We formalize multi-path LLM reasoning as a diversity combining problem fr …
Traffic Signal Control (TSC) is a safety-critical cyber-physical system that relies on real-time sensing. Corrupted observations caused by adversarial perturbations or sensor failures can propagate from the sensing layer into the controller and degrade traffic efficiency. Existing robust Reinforcement Learning (RL)-bas …
Privacy-sensitive organizations may run large language models (LLMs) in restricted or air-gapped environments while exporting selected diagnostic artifacts. We show that a compromised runtime component can hide sensitive information in intermediate activations that are allowed to leave the restricted environment. An of …
