Attributable by Construction: Claim-Anchored Provenance for Multi-Document Summarization

Large language models produce fluent multi-document summaries, but their attributions are typically coarse---whole documents or passages---and generated post hoc, leaving each statement hard to verify. We argue that attribution should be a structural property of generation rather than a downstream prediction. We present CAMS, a Claim-Anchored Multi-document Summarization framework that decomposes every source document into atomic claims whose provenance is resolved deterministically from verbatim quotes to token spans, clusters equivalent claims across documents while flagging inter-source conflicts, selects a support-aware and salient subset, and rewrites it so that every summary sentence terminates in claim identifiers resolving back to source spans. This yields a separation we make explicit: provenance is an invariant holding for every emitted sentence independently of model accuracy, whereas faithfulness is an objective that selection, constrained rewriting, and verification only encourage---a distinction end-to-end and post-hoc systems conflate. We evaluate on MultiNews, DiverseSumm, and zero-shot on WCEP under a two-regime protocol separating reference-free citation quality from gold-aligned localization, audited by a support model never used for selection or verification. CAMSmatches strong end-to-end and span-attribution baselines on summary quality while improving faithfulness and citation precision, raising multi-source attribution accuracy from 38% to 64% without inflating the number of cited sources, and cutting human verification time per claim by $3.4\times$. We release code and ${\sim}320$K claim--quote--span annotations over MultiNews as a reusable fine-grained attribution resource.

FAST: Topology-Aware Frequency-Domain Distribution Matching for Coreset Selection

Coreset selection compresses large datasets into compact, representative subsets, reducing the energy and computational burden of training deep neural networks. Existing methods are either: (i) DNN-based, which are tied to model-specific parameters and introduce architectural bias; or (ii) DNN-free, which rely on heuristics lacking theoretical guarantees. Neither approach explicitly constrains distributional equivalence, largely because continuous distribution matching is considered inapplicable to discrete sampling. Moreover, prevalent metrics (e.g., MSE, KL, CE, MMD) cannot accurately capture higher-order moment discrepancies, leading to suboptimal coresets. In this work, we propose FAST, the first DNN-free distribution-matching coreset selection framework that formulates the coreset selection task as a graph-constrained optimization problem grounded in spectral graph theory and employs the Characteristic Function Distance (CFD) to capture full distributional information in the frequency domain. We further discover that naive CFD suffers from a "vanishing phase gradient" issue in medium and high-frequency regions; to address this, we introduce an Attenuated Phase-Decoupled CFD. Furthermore, for better convergence, we design a Progressive Discrepancy-Aware Sampling strategy that progressively schedules frequency selection from low to high, preserving global structure before refining local details and enabling accurate matching with fewer frequencies while avoiding overfitting. Extensive experiments demonstrate that FAST significantly outperforms state-of-the-art coreset selection methods across all evaluated benchmarks, achieving an average accuracy gain of 9.12%. Compared to other baseline coreset methods, it reduces power consumption by 96.57% and achieves a 2.2x average speedup, underscoring its high performance and energy efficiency.

Measuring gravitational wave spectrum from electroweak phase transition and Higgs self-couplings

In this work, we demonstrate the complete process of using space-based gravitational wave detectors to measure properties of the stochastic gravitational wave background arising from a first-order electroweak phase transition. Based on frequency-domain simulations of the Taiji mission, including instrumental noise and astrophysical foregrounds, we perform parameter inference using both the Fisher information matrix and Bayesian Markov Chain Monte Carlo sampling. We show how the reconstructed spectrum constrains the macroscopic parameters of the phase transition, and further how these constraints map onto the underlying particle-physics parameters in a singlet-extended Standard Model. Our results demonstrate that the Higgs cubic and quartic self-couplings can be significantly constrained using gravitational wave observations, despite limitations arising from parameter degeneracy.
