Three Phases of Expert Routing: How Load Balance Evolves During Mixture-of-Experts Training
arXiv:2604.04230v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We model Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) token routing as a congestion game with a single effective parameter, the congestion coefficient gamma_eff, that quantifies the balance-quality tradeoff. Tracking gamma_eff across training checkpoints of two open-source MoE models, OLMoE-1B-7B (20 checkpoints, with dense sampling in the surge region) and OpenMoE-8B (6 checkpoints), reveals a three-phase trajectory: a surge phase where the router learns to balance load (gamma_eff: 14 to 36-39, peaking in the step 30K-40K region), a stabilization phase where experts specialize under steady balance (B_0: 2.4 to 2.3, steps 100K-400K), and a relaxation phase where the router trades balance for quality as experts differentiate (gamma_eff: 27 to 9, steps 400K-1.2M

Element-based Formation Control: a Unified Perspective from Continuum Mechanics
arXiv:2604.04027v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: This paper establishes a unified element-based framework for formation control by introducing the concept of the deformation gradient from continuum mechanics. Unlike traditional methods that rely on geometric constraints defined on graph edges, we model the formation as a discrete elastic body composed of simplicial elements. By defining a generalized distortion energy based on the local deformation gradient tensor, we derive a family of distributed control laws that can enforce various geometric invariances, including translation, rotation, scaling, and affine transformations. The convergence properties and the features of the proposed controllers are analyzed in detail. Theoretically, we show that the proposed framework serves as a bridg

Ledger-State Stigmergy: A Formal Framework for Indirect Coordination Grounded in Distributed Ledger State
arXiv:2604.03997v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Autonomous software agents on blockchains solve distributed-coordination problems by reading shared ledger state instead of exchanging direct messages. Liquidation keepers, arbitrage bots, and other autonomous on-chain agents watch balances, contract storage, and event logs; when conditions change, they act. The ledger therefore functions as a replicated shared-state medium through which decentralized agents coordinate indirectly. This form of indirect coordination mirrors what Grass\'e called stigmergy in 1959: organisms coordinating through traces left in a shared environment, with no central plan. Stigmergy has mature formalizations in swarm intelligence and multi-agent systems, and on-chain agents already behave stigmergically in practi

VisionClaw: Always-On AI Agents through Smart Glasses
arXiv:2604.03486v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We present VisionClaw, an always-on wearable AI agent that integrates live egocentric perception with agentic task execution. Running on Meta Ray-Ban smart glasses, VisionClaw continuously perceives real-world context and enables in-situ, speech-driven action initiation and delegation via OpenClaw AI agents. Therefore, users can directly execute tasks through the smart glasses, such as adding real-world objects to an Amazon cart, generating notes from physical documents, receiving meeting briefings on the go, creating events from posters, or controlling IoT devices. We evaluate VisionClaw through a controlled laboratory study (N=12) and a longitudinal deployment study (N=5). Results show that integrating perception and execution enables fas

PollutionNet: A Vision Transformer Framework for Climatological Assessment of NO$_2$ and SO$_2$ Using Satellite-Ground Data Fusion
arXiv:2604.03311v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Accurate assessment of atmospheric nitrogen dioxide (NO$_2$) and sulfur dioxide (SO$_2$) is essential for understanding climate-air quality interactions, supporting environmental policy, and protecting public health. Traditional monitoring approaches face limitations: satellite observations provide broad spatial coverage but suffer from data gaps, while ground-based sensors offer high temporal resolution but limited spatial extent. To address these challenges, we propose PollutionNet, a Vision Transformer-based framework that integrates Sentinel-5P TROPOMI vertical column density (VCD) data with ground-level observations. By leveraging self-attention mechanisms, PollutionNet captures complex spatiotemporal dependencies that are often missed b

Edge-Based Standing-Water Detection via FSM-Guided Tiering and Multi-Model Consensus
arXiv:2604.03308v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Standing water in agricultural fields threatens vehicle mobility and crop health. This paper presents a deployed edge architecture for standing-water detection using Raspberry-Pi-class devices with optional Jetson acceleration. Camera input and environmental sensors (humidity, pressure, temperature) are combined in a finite-state machine (FSM) that acts as the architectural decision engine. The FSM-guided control plane selects between local and offloaded inference tiers, trading accuracy, latency, and energy under intermittent connectivity and motion-dependent compute budgets. A multi-model YOLO ensemble provides image scores, while diurnal-baseline sensor fusion adjusts caution using environmental anomalies. All decisions are logged per fram

A Novel Hybrid PID-LQR Controller for Sit-To-Stand Assistance Using a CAD-Integrated Simscape Multibody Lower Limb Exoskeleton
arXiv:2604.03766v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Precise control of lower limb exoskeletons during sit-to-stand (STS) transitions remains a central challenge in rehabilitation robotics owing to the highly nonlinear, time-varying dynamics of the human-exoskeleton system and the stringent trajectory tracking requirements imposed by clinical safety. This paper presents the systematic design, simulation, and comparative evaluation of three control strategies: a classical Proportional-Integral-Derivative (PID) controller, a Linear Quadratic Regulator (LQR), and a novel Hybrid PID-LQR controller applied to a bilateral lower limb exoskeleton performing the sit-to-stand transition. A high-fidelity, physics-based dynamic model of the exoskeleton is constructed by importing a SolidWorks CAD assembly
