• Networked Intelligence: Active Shared Context Graphs for Human-AI Team Science

  Sutanay Choudhury, Jeffrey J. Czajka, Lummy M. O. Monteiro, Erin Bredeweg, Jason McDermott, Katherine Wolf, Alex Beliaev, Josh Elmore, Paul Piehowski, Kylee Tate, Yuqian Gao, Aivett Bilbao, Kelly Stratton, Scott Baker, Jaydeep P. Bardhan, Kristin Burnum Johnson, Chris Oehmen, Robert Rallo · 16. Juli 2026

  Most AI-for-science systems focus on scaling a single reasoning process through better models, larger context windows, long-horizon agentic execution, or digital co-scientists working with one principal user. However, challenging scientific problems are rarely solved by one reasoner alone. They are …

• Notes on generative modeling: flow matching, diffusion, optimal transport and Schr{\"o}dinger bridge

  Titouan Vayer (COMPACT) · 30. Juni 2026

  These notes recapitulate the high level mathematical principles behind different techniques for generative modeling. I show the connections between optimal transport and standard techniques such as Schr{\"o}dinger bridge and flow matching.…

• Mycelium-Index: A Streaming Approximate Nearest Neighbor Index with Myelial Edge Decay, Traffic-Driven Reinforcement, and Adaptive Living Hierarchy

  Anton Pakhunov · 14. April 2026

  We present mycelium-index, a streaming approximate nearest neighbor (ANN) index for high-dimensional vector spaces, inspired by the adaptive growth patterns of biological mycelium. The system continuously adapts its topology through myelial edge decay and reinforcement, a traffic-driven living hiera…

• Semantic Substrate Theory: An Operator-Theoretic Framework for Geometric Semantic Drift

  Stephen Russell · 24. Februar 2026

  Most semantic drift studies report multiple signals e.g., embedding displacement, neighbor changes, distributional divergence, and recursive trajectory instability, without a shared explanatory theory that relates them. This paper proposes a formalization of these signals in one time-indexed substra…

• Remapping and navigation of an embedding space via error minimization: a fundamental organizational principle of cognition in natural and artificial systems

  Benedikt Hartl, L\'eo Pio-Lopez, Chris Fields, Michael Levin · 21. Januar 2026

  The emerging field of diverse intelligence seeks an integrated view of problem-solving in agents of very different provenance, composition, and substrates. From subcellular chemical networks to swarms of organisms, and across evolved, engineered, and chimeric systems, it is hypothesized that scale-i…

• Active Context Compression: Autonomous Memory Management in LLM Agents

  Nikhil Verma · 13. Januar 2026

  Large Language Model (LLM) agents struggle with long-horizon software engineering tasks due to "Context Bloat." As interaction history grows, computational costs explode, latency increases, and reasoning capabilities degrade due to distraction by irrelevant past errors. Existing solutions often rely…

• PCIA: A Path Construction Imitation Algorithm for Global Optimization

  Mohammad-Javad Rezaei, Mozafar Bag-Mohammadi · 19. Dezember 2025

  In this paper, a new metaheuristic optimization algorithm, called Path Construction Imitation Algorithm (PCIA), is proposed. PCIA is inspired by how humans construct new paths and use them. Typically, humans prefer popular transportation routes. In the event of a path closure, a new route is built b…
