    Orbital Error Dynamics: Self-Organized Criticality, Ephemeral Parameter Resonance, and Non-Linear Biological Ontologies in Zero-Storage Neural Synthesis
    Modern deep neural networks treat parameters as static floating-point matrices stored in physical memory, incurring Von Neumann memory bottlenecks and representation collapse. We formulate Orbital Error Dynamics (OED), an analytical framework wherein synaptic weights are not stored masses (O(W)), but transient topological resonances (O(1)) derived procedurally from the complex quadratic polynomial map z_{n+1} = z_n^2 + c. We introduce the Bent Sine Wave Hypothesis, demonstrating that non-equilibVolkan Dağlı

    Activation-Flexible ANN-to-SNN Conversion with Finite-State Markov Neurons
    Most ANN-to-SNN conversion methods rely on a specific correspondence between the source activation and the spiking neuron dynamics. We propose a finite-state continuous-time Markov chain (CTMC) neuron framework whose stationary spike flux can approximate every continuous nonnegative monotone activation function on a compact interval. For a generalized CTMC family with affine input-dependent transitions, we prove uniform approximation to arbitrary accuracy over this function class and derive an eRuiyu Jia

    A Spiking Neural Network Model of Elementary Self-Consciousness via Endogenous Default Mode Network Dynamics
    Understanding the neurobiological mechanisms underlying self-referential cognition and baseline self-consciousness remains a fundamental challenge in computational neuroscience. In this work, we propose a large-scale computational model incorporating a 10,000-neuron spiking neural network (SNN) based on Izhikevich dynamics. The network is structured into two interacting subsystems: a sensory processing layer (5,000 regular-spiking cortical neurons) and an endogenous Default Mode Network (DMN) paR. Lahoz-Beltra

    Boolean threshold functions, neuron capacity, and memory retrieval
    How much information can a single neuron remember? How many memories can neural networks retrieve without creating false memories? These questions are related to a basic question: how many Boolean threshold functions $f(x)=\operatorname{sgn}(a_0+\langle a,x\rangle)$, $x\in\{-1,1\}^n$, are there? In this paper, we show that the number $T_n$ of distinct Boolean threshold functions is \[ T_n=2\binom{2^n-1}{n}\bigl(1+O(n^{-99})\bigr). \] Equivalently, the capacity of a single threshold neuron is $n^Xinyuan Xie

    On Growth and Form, and Function: Reusable Regulatory Handles Control Phenotypic Variation
    How phenotypic transformations are implemented by changes in underlying regulatory dynamics remains a central question in developmental biology. Inspired by D'Arcy Thompson's 1917 "On Growth and Form", we ask whether coherent large-scale transformations of morphology can be encoded as low-dimensional modulations of a self-organizing developmental system. We use neural cellular automata (NCAs) as bio-inspired models of distributed development, in which a shared local regulatory network grows targBenedikt Hartl

    Dynamical Diversity for Reservoir Computing in Reconfigurable Nanomechanics
    Physical reservoir computing uses nonlinear dynamics and a trained linear readout to process information. Nanoelectromechanical (NEMS) resonators combine geometric Duffing nonlinearity with fading memory, but most electromechanical implementations use a single resonance mode. Here, we demonstrate reservoir computing with two interacting modes of a single NEMS resonator measured through one readout port.

    Online Task Adaptation via Self-Organisation
    Neural networks are typically adapted by computing gradients and updating model parameters. We investigate whether task-specific adaptation can instead emerge from a meta-learned self-organising process that requires no gradients at adaptation time. We instantiate this idea with a Neural Cellular Automaton in which locally interacting recurrent cells maintain both a recurrent state and a fast associative memory. During meta-training, backpropagation is used to learn the recurrent dynamics togethKrsto Proroković

Large language model (LLM) agents support this process through iterative generation and evaluation.

    Spiking Neural Network Predicting Sequence of the External Worlds States in Model-Based Reinforcement Learning
    This paper presents a spiking neural network (SNN) designed to predict the sequence of the external world states starting from the current world state. This SNN does not create the world dynamics model - instead it incorporates the SNN trained to predict the next world state and provides all mechanisms necessary to make the chain of predicted world states. These mechanisms are entirely spiking - they are implemented as spiking neuron ensembles. The present article describes this neuronal structuMikhail Kiselev

    An Unbounded Archive-based Transfer Strategy for Dynamic Multi-Objective Optimization with a Changing Number of Objectives
    Dynamic multi-objective optimization with a variable number of objectives is difficult because objective-dimensional variations may significantly change the Pareto front and degrade algorithm adaptability. This paper proposes an unbounded archive-based transfer strategy (UATS), which maintains an unbounded archive of offspring solutions within each environment stage and extracts feasible nondominated solutions as transferable elites when objective changes occur.

    Combining LLMs and Genetic Search for ARC-AGI-2
    LLMs can generate programs for ARC-AGI-2 tasks, but the provided compute only allows a small number of attempts to generate, debug and validate solutions. Genetic algorithms can search and test many more programs, but random search rarely starts in a useful neighborhood of the solution space. We combine the two methods through a compact domain specific language (DSL). First, a quantized Qwen3.5-4B LLM generates an initial set of programs for each ARCAGI-2 task.

    LexLattice: Multilingual Extractive Summarization via Neural Cellular Automata on Document Hierarchies
    Faithfulness is a central concern in legal text summarization, which motivates extractive approaches that select verbatim content traceable to its source. Such methods typically rank paragraphs or other structural units in isolation, yet give little attention to consolidating evidence that is distributed across, and shares salience between, distant parts of a document.

    The Computational Value of Sensory-Aligned Receptive Fields Depends on Neuronal Expressivity
    Biological sensory neurons have selective receptive fields organized along meaningful stimulus coordinates, such as frequency, motion direction, or retinotopic position. Such structure may arise from efficient coding and biological constraints on activity, connectivity, and wiring, as computational studies of simple neurons have shown across modalities. This raises a question: do structured receptive fields confer a computational advantage beyond resource efficiency itself, and does this advantaAgnese Adorante

    When Recursive Models Finish Computing
    Recursive models can continue updating their latent states beyond their nominal inference budget, so an incorrect output at that budget does not show whether computation is unfinished or has entered a persistently unsuccessful regime.

    Rethinking Pairwise Token Interaction in Spiking Transformers
    Spiking Transformers inherit token interaction mechanisms from conventional Transformers, yet their sparse binary representations fundamentally alter how token-to-token communication is established. In particular, spike-based query-key matching produces highly sparse and input-dependent interaction patterns, coupling information propagation to the instantaneous availability of matching spike events. This motivates a different interaction paradigm in which long-range communication does not rely sSicheng Shen

    Online Automated Algorithm Design with Large Language Models
    Large language models (LLMs) enable automated algorithm design (AAD) through reasoning and code synthesis. However, most existing LLM-based AAD methods separate algorithm design from target optimization, deploying a fixed design even as the optimization state evolves. Conventional adaptive optimizers can respond to such changes, but their adjustments remain confined to predefined parameters, operators, or strategies.

    Harness-Zero: Harness Distillation via Agent-as-Harness
    Agent harnesses, the external systems that mediate model-environment interaction, can substantially improve agent performance, but their gains remain tied to the harness at deployment. Because the best harness varies across domains, instances, and models, a general-purpose agent must either settle for a suboptimal shared harness or route among an ever-growing set of specialized ones.

    Predictive Suppression Layers for Communication-Efficient Spiking Neural Networks
