Floating-Point Networks with Automatic Differentiation Can Represent Almost All Floating-Point Functions and Their Gradients

Theoretical studies show that for any differentiable function on a compact domain, there exists a neural network that approximates both the function values and gradients. However, such a result cannot be used in practice since it assumes real parameters and exact internal operations. In contrast, real implementations only use a finite subset of reals and machine operations with round-off errors. In this work, we investigate whether a similar result holds for neural networks under floating-point arithmetic, when the gradient with respect to the input is computed by the automatic differentiation algorithm $D^\mathtt{AD}$. We first show that given a floating-point function $φ$ (e.g., a loss function), arbitrary function values and gradients can be represented by a floating-point network $f$ and $D^\mathtt{AD}(φ\circ f)$, respectively. We further extend this result: given $φ_1,\dots,φ_n$, $D^\mathtt{AD}(φ_i\circ f)$ can simultaneously represent arbitrary gradients while $f$ represents the target values, under mild conditions. Our results hold for practical activation functions, e.g., $\mathrm{ReLU}$, $\mathrm{ELU}$, $\mathrm{GeLU}$, $\mathrm{Swish}$, $\mathrm{Sigmoid}$, and $\mathrm{tanh}$.

Soohak: A Mathematician-Curated Benchmark for Evaluating Research-level Math Capabilities of LLMs

Following the recent achievement of gold-medal performance on the IMO by frontier LLMs, the community is searching for the next meaningful and challenging target for measuring LLM reasoning. Whereas olympiad-style problems measure step-by-step reasoning alone, research-level problems use such reasoning to advance the frontier of mathematical knowledge itself, emerging as a compelling alternative. Yet research-level math benchmarks remain scarce because such problems are difficult to source (e.g., Riemann Bench and FrontierMath-Tier 4 contain 25 and 50 problems, respectively). To support reliable evaluation of next-generation frontier models, we introduce Soohak, a 439-problem benchmark newly authored from scratch by 64 mathematicians. Soohak comprises two subsets. On the Challenge subset, frontier models including Gemini-3-Pro, GPT-5, and Claude-Opus-4.5 reach 30.4%, 26.4%, and 10.4% respectively, leaving substantial headroom, while leading open-weight models such as Qwen3-235B, GPT-OSS-120B, and Kimi-2.5 remain below 15%. Notably, beyond standard problem solving, Soohak introduces a refusal subset that probes a capability intrinsic to research mathematics: recognizing ill-posed problems and pausing rather than producing confident but unjustified answers. On this subset, no model exceeds 50%, identifying refusal as a new optimization target that current models do not directly address. To prevent contamination, the dataset will be publicly released in late 2026, with model evaluations available upon request in the interim.

MCW-Net: Single Image Deraining with Multi-level Connections and Wide Regional Non-local Blocks

A recent line of convolutional neural network-based works has succeeded in capturing rain streaks. However, difficulties in detailed recovery still remain. In this paper, we present a multi-level connection and wide regional non-local block network (MCW-Net) to properly restore the original background textures in rainy images. Unlike existing encoder-decoder-based image deraining models that improve performance with additional branches, MCW-Net improves performance by maximizing information utilization without additional branches through the following two proposed methods. The first method is a multi-level connection that repeatedly connects multi-level features of the encoder network to the decoder network. Multi-level connection encourages the decoding process to use the feature information of all levels. In multi-level connection, channel-wise attention is considered to learn which level of features is important in the decoding process of the current level. The second method is a wide regional non-local block. As rain streaks primarily exhibit a vertical distribution, we divide the grid of the image into horizontally-wide patches and apply a non-local operation to each region to explore the rich rain-free background information. Experimental results on both synthetic and real-world rainy datasets demonstrate that the proposed model significantly outperforms existing state-of-the-art models. Furthermore, the results of the joint deraining and segmentation experiment prove that our model contributes effectively to other vision tasks.

Self-Knowledge Distillation via Dropout

To boost the performance, deep neural networks require deeper or wider network structures that involve massive computational and memory costs. To alleviate this issue, the self-knowledge distillation method regularizes the model by distilling the internal knowledge of the model itself. Conventional self-knowledge distillation methods require additional trainable parameters or are dependent on the data. In this paper, we propose a simple and effective self-knowledge distillation method using a dropout (SD-Dropout). SD-Dropout distills the posterior distributions of multiple models through a dropout sampling. Our method does not require any additional trainable modules, does not rely on data, and requires only simple operations. Furthermore, this simple method can be easily combined with various self-knowledge distillation approaches. We provide a theoretical and experimental analysis of the effect of forward and reverse KL-divergences in our work. Extensive experiments on various vision tasks, i.e., image classification, object detection, and distribution shift, demonstrate that the proposed method can effectively improve the generalization of a single network. Further experiments show that the proposed method also improves calibration performance, adversarial robustness, and out-of-distribution detection ability.

Membership Inference Attacks Against Object Detection Models

Machine learning models can leak information regarding the dataset they have trained. In this paper, we present the first membership inference attack against black-boxed object detection models that determines whether the given data records are used in the training. To attack the object detection model, we devise a novel method named as called a canvas method, in which predicted bounding boxes are drawn on an empty image for the attack model input. Based on the experiments, we successfully reveal the membership status of privately sensitive data trained using one-stage and two-stage detection models. We then propose defense strategies and also conduct a transfer attack between the models and datasets. Our results show that object detection models are also vulnerable to inference attacks like other models.
