MNC: Scope-Bound Semantic Declassification for Private LLM-Agent Communication

Multi-agent large language model (LLM) systems can expose protected state through internal messages, tool arguments, logs, and persistent memory even when their public outputs appear innocuous. Existing privacy prompts, redaction methods, and source-level access controls restrict surface content or data access, but do not specify what a legitimately informed agent should disclose or how that disclosure may be reused downstream. We introduce Minimum-Necessary Communication (MNC), a typed semantic-declassification protocol that selects a task-sufficient disclosure from an application-authored candidate family and binds it to explicit recipient, purpose, forwarding, lifetime, logging, and memory scopes. A reference monitor enforces these scopes across subsequent operations, while a history-aware extension accounts for inference risk accumulated over repeated disclosures. Controlled semantic-join, memory, probing, and longitudinal experiments show that conventional defenses can preserve protocol-level utility while exposing substantial additional inference signal. Under identical receipt text, MNC preserves authorized delivery while blocking unauthorized forwarding, logging, durable storage, and retrieval after expiration that a text-only semantic declassifier permits. Two-backbone MAGPIE executions further show that mediated disclosures propagate through subsequent planning, tool use, coordination, and memory retrieval. These results support scope-bound semantic declassification as a practical communication boundary for private LLM-agent systems.

Beyond Single-Use Tokens: Durable Authorization State for Replay-Resistant LLM Agent Actions

Tool-using large language model agents frequently replan, retry failed operations, delegate tasks, and resume after crashes. These behaviors can cause one user authorization to be requested and executed multiple times under freshly issued token identifiers, even when each individual token is single-use. We call this failure semantic replay: exceeding the execution budget of a token-independent authorization instance rather than merely reusing an old token identifier. We show that identifier-local token consumption cannot prevent fresh reissuance unless the issuer retains monotonic durable state over the authorized action, confirmation event, and remaining execution budget. We introduce CapLease, an authorization-consumption layer that follows proposal- and authority-level defenses, binds an authenticated user confirmation to a canonical action, and enforces transactional Issue-Prepare-Commit transitions. Across LLM-agent replanning, retry, delegation, concurrency, confirmation-replay, and crash-recovery scenarios, identifier-local tokens permit fresh semantic reissuance, whereas CapLease and an equally stateful Server Ledger prevent duplicate admission and, with an idempotent sink, duplicate external effects. Our results identify durable authorization state, rather than token representation alone, as the systems requirement for replay-resistant agent execution.

Memory Provenance Laundering in LLM Agents: A Non-Amplification Firewall for Persistent Memory

Long-term memory lets large language model(LLM) agents reuse prior preferences and work flows, but it also turns untrusted observations into persistent action context. We identify memory provenance laundering: during LLM-based memory consolidation, an external observation may be rewritten as apparent user history or workflow support, preserving an action trigger while erasing the low-trust source that should limit its authority. Existing prompt filters, content sanitizers, and tool guards do not enforce source-authority non-amplification after lossy memory consolidation. We formalize this boundary and instantiate it as Provenance-Preserving Memory Fire wall (PPMF), a lightweight memory middleware that preserves platform-maintained provenance and authorizes tool calls by matching action risk to the authority of action-relevant memories. In our schema-grounded evaluation with fixed risk policies, vulnerable consolidated memories reach up to 1.000 attack success rate(ASR); with intact platform-maintained provenance, confirmation, and risk labels, no evaluated unauthorized high-risk action passes the PPMF gate while confirmed benign actions and targeted low-risk memory use remain executable.

MOSAIC: Orchestrating Collaborative Knowledge Tracing with Hierarchical Semantic Alignment

Knowledge Tracing (KT) is important for personalized education but traditionally suffers from two key limitations: a reliance on shallow ID-based representations that neglect semantic depth and a restriction to single-granularity mastery estimation that overlooks hierarchical knowledge dependencies. To address these challenges, we propose MOSAIC (Multi-granularity Online Semantic AI for Collaborative Knowledge), a novel framework that orchestrates LLM-driven semantic alignment with sequential modeling. Unlike methods that use LLMs solely as predictors, MOSAIC leverages a frozen LLM to generate dynamic, context-aware embeddings and hierarchical prediction prompts, explicitly capturing collaborative signals and peer interactions. Furthermore, we introduce a cross-granularity consistency objective that jointly regularizes mastery estimation across concept, topic-cluster, and global proficiency levels. Extensive experiments on ASSISTments, EdNet, and a newly collected large-scale MOOC dataset demonstrate that MOSAIC establishes new state-of-the-art results. Specifically, our method achieves AUC improvements of up to 3.4\% and Accuracy gains of up to 2.5 \% across all benchmarks. Notably, MOSAIC exhibits superior robustness in collaboration-rich environments and long-sequence scenarios (AUC 0.862 on MOOC), offering both high predictive precision and semantically grounded interpretability.

FAST: A Synergistic Framework of Attention and State-space Models for Spatiotemporal Traffic Prediction

Traffic forecasting requires modeling complex temporal dynamics and long-range spatial dependencies over large sensor networks. Existing methods typically face a trade-off between expressiveness and efficiency: Transformer-based models capture global dependencies well but suffer from quadratic complexity, while recent selective state-space models are computationally efficient yet less effective at modeling spatial interactions in graph-structured traffic data. We propose FAST, a unified framework that combines attention and state-space modeling for scalable spatiotemporal traffic forecasting. FAST adopts a Temporal-Spatial-Temporal architecture, where temporal attention modules capture both short- and long-term temporal patterns, and a Mamba-based spatial module models long-range inter-sensor dependencies with linear complexity. To better represent heterogeneous traffic contexts, FAST further introduces a learnable multi-source spatiotemporal embedding that integrates historical traffic flow, temporal context, and node-level information, together with a multi-level skip prediction mechanism for hierarchical feature fusion. Experiments on PeMS04, PeMS07, and PeMS08 show that FAST consistently outperforms strong baselines from Transformer-, GNN-, attention-, and Mamba-based families. In particular, FAST achieves the best MAE and RMSE on all three benchmarks, with up to 4.3\% lower RMSE and 2.8\% lower MAE than the strongest baseline, demonstrating a favorable balance between accuracy, scalability, and generalization.

Task-Specific Efficiency Analysis: When Small Language Models Outperform Large Language Models

Large Language Models achieve remarkable performance but incur substantial computational costs unsuitable for resource-constrained deployments. This paper presents the first comprehensive task-specific efficiency analysis comparing 16 language models across five diverse NLP tasks. We introduce the Performance-Efficiency Ratio (PER), a novel metric integrating accuracy, throughput, memory, and latency through geometric mean normalization. Our systematic evaluation reveals that small models (0.5--3B parameters) achieve superior PER scores across all given tasks. These findings establish quantitative foundations for deploying small models in production environments prioritizing inference efficiency over marginal accuracy gains.

CATCH: A Modular Cross-domain Adaptive Template with Hook

Recent advances in Visual Question Answering (VQA) have demonstrated impressive performance in natural image domains, with models like LLaVA leveraging large language models (LLMs) for open-ended reasoning. However, their generalization degrades significantly when transferred to out-of-domain scenarios such as remote sensing, medical imaging, or math diagrams, due to large distributional shifts and the lack of effective domain adaptation mechanisms. Existing approaches typically rely on per-domain fine-tuning or bespoke pipelines, which are costly, inflexible, and not scalable across diverse tasks. In this paper, we propose CATCH, a plug-and-play framework for cross-domain adaptation that improves the generalization of VQA models while requiring minimal changes to their core architecture. Our key idea is to decouple visual and linguistic adaptation by introducing two lightweight modules: a domain classifier to identify the input image type, and a dual adapter mechanism comprising a Prompt Adapter for language modulation and a Visual Adapter for vision feature adjustment. Both modules are dynamically injected via a unified hook interface, requiring no retraining of the backbone model. Experimental results across four domain-specific VQA benchmarks demonstrate that our framework achieves consistent performance gains without retraining the backbone model, including +2.3 BLEU on MathVQA, +2.6 VQA on MedVQA-RAD, and +3.1 ROUGE on ChartQA. These results highlight that CATCH provides a scalable and extensible approach to multi-domain VQA, enabling practical deployment across diverse application domains.

Hy-Facial: Hybrid Feature Extraction by Dimensionality Reduction Methods for Enhanced Facial Expression Classification

Facial expression classification remains a challenging task due to the high dimensionality and inherent complexity of facial image data. This paper presents Hy-Facial, a hybrid feature extraction framework that integrates both deep learning and traditional image processing techniques, complemented by a systematic investigation of dimensionality reduction strategies. The proposed method fuses deep features extracted from the Visual Geometry Group 19-layer network (VGG19) with handcrafted local descriptors and the scale-invariant feature transform (SIFT) and Oriented FAST and Rotated BRIEF (ORB) algorithms, to obtain rich and diverse image representations. To mitigate feature redundancy and reduce computational complexity, we conduct a comprehensive evaluation of dimensionality reduction techniques and feature extraction. Among these, UMAP is identified as the most effective, preserving both local and global structures of the high-dimensional feature space. The Hy-Facial pipeline integrated VGG19, SIFT, and ORB for feature extraction, followed by K-means clustering and UMAP for dimensionality reduction, resulting in a classification accuracy of 83. 3\% in the facial expression recognition (FER) dataset. These findings underscore the pivotal role of dimensionality reduction not only as a pre-processing step but as an essential component in improving feature quality and overall classification performance.

Rhyme-aware Chinese lyric generator based on GPT

Neural language representation models such as GPT, pre-trained on large-scale corpora, can effectively capture rich semantic patterns from plain text and be fine-tuned to consistently improve natural language generation performance. However, existing pre-trained language models used to generate lyrics rarely consider rhyme information, which is crucial in lyrics. Using a pre-trained model directly results in poor performance. To enhance the rhyming quality of generated lyrics, we incorporate integrated rhyme information into our model, thereby improving lyric generation performance.
