Care-Conditioned Neuromodulation for Autonomy-Preserving Supportive Dialogue Agents
Shalima Binta Manir, Tim Oates
Large language models deployed in supportive or advisory roles must balance helpfulness with preservation of user autonomy, yet standard alignment methods primarily optimize for he…
A Systematic Empirical Study of Grokking: Depth, Architecture, Activation, and Regularization
Shalima Binta Manir, Anamika Paul Rupa
Grokking the delayed transition from memorization to generalization in neural networks remains poorly understood, in part because prior empirical studies confound the roles of arch…
ASEHybrid: When Geometry Matters Beyond Homophily in Graph Neural Networks
Shalima Binta Manir, Tim Oates
Standard message-passing graph neural networks (GNNs) often struggle on graphs with low homophily, yet homophily alone does not explain this behavior, as graphs with similar homoph…
Predicting the Performance of Graph Convolutional Networks with Spectral Properties of the Graph Laplacian
Shalima Binta Manir, Tim Oates
A common observation in the Graph Convolutional Network (GCN) literature is that stacking GCN layers may or may not result in better performance on tasks like node classification a…
