Before the Action: Benchmarking LLMs on Prospective Hypothesis Discovery
Large language models (LLMs) excel at answering pre-specified questions, yet their ability to navigate the open-ended, pre-conclusion stage of discovery remains largely unmeasured. We introduce Prospective Hypothesis Discovery (PHD), which asks models to autonomously construct grounded, discriminative, and testable hypothesis spaces from inconclusive evidence, including anomalous observations and fragmented records, to guide subsequent investigation. To evaluate this capability, we introduce HypoArena, comprising HypoData, a benchmark of 988 cases across six scientific and analytical domains,
AdvSerial: Physical Adversarial Attacks on Infrastructure-mounted Pedestrian Detectors via Semantic Feature Suppression
AI-based visual perception systems are increasingly deployed in infrastructure surveillance, including roadside monitoring units, highway cameras, and smart-city pedestrian management systems. The security vulnerability of these systems to physical adversarial attacks poses a direct threat to the reliable operation of transportation infrastructure. We propose AdvSerial, a dynamic 2D--3D joint optimization framework for generating continuous high-angle physical adversarial patches against pedestrian detectors in infrastructure-based scenarios. We UV-map a boundary-aware quilted texture onto 3D
