Vector Cost Behavioral Planning for Autonomous Robotic Systems with Contemporary Validation Strategies

Benjamin R. Toaz, Quentin Goss, John Thompson +4

The vector cost bimatrix game is a method for multi-objective decision making that enables autonomous robotic systems to optimize for multiple goals at once while avoiding worst-ca…

Seed-Induced Uniqueness in Transformer Models: Subspace Alignment Governs Subliminal Transfer

Ayşe Selin Okatan, Mustafa İlhan Akbaş, Laxima Niure Kandel +1

We analyze subliminal transfer in Transformer models, where a teacher embeds hidden traits that can be linearly decoded by a student without degrading main-task performance. Prior…

Keys in the Weights: Transformer Authentication Using Model-Bound Latent Representations

Ayşe S. Okatan, Mustafa İlhan Akbaş, Laxima Niure Kandel +1

We introduce Model-Bound Latent Exchange (MoBLE), a decoder-binding property in Transformer autoencoders formalized as Zero-Shot Decoder Non-Transferability (ZSDN). In identity tas…

VBCA: A Virtual Forces Clustering Algorithm for Autonomous Aerial Drone Systems

Matthias R. Brust, Mustafa Ilhan Akbas, Damla Turgut

We consider the positioning problem of aerial drone systems for efficient three-dimensional (3-D) coverage. Our solution draws from molecular geometry, where forces among electron…

Social Network Generation and Role Determination Based on Smartphone Data

Mustafa Ilhan Akbas, Matthias R. Brust, Damla Turgut

We deal with the problem of automatically generating social networks by analyzing and assessing smartphone usage and interaction data. We start by assigning weights to the differen…
