   Formalizing Latent Thoughts: Four Axioms of Thought Representation in LLMs

   Fahd Seddik, Fatemeh Fard

   We formalize four axioms for LLM thought representations and show structural failures in candidate representations.

   ARISE: A Repository-level Graph Representation and Toolset for Agentic Program Repair

   Shahd Seddik, Fahd Seddik, Amirrezza Esmaeili, Mahdieh Sadatbenis, Fatemeh Fard

   Builds a multi-granularity repository graph with statement-level data-flow slicing so a program-repair agent can trace where a variable is defined and used in a single call. Mounted on SWE-agent, it resolves 4.7 more points of SWE-bench Lite issues and nearly doubles line-level fault-localization recall.

   Context-Augmented Code Generation Using Programming Knowledge Graphs

   Shahd Seddik, Fahd Seddik, Iman Saberi, Fatemeh Fard, Minh Hieu Huynh, Patanamon Thongtanunam

   Grounds code generation in a programming knowledge graph so the model retrieves precise structural context (call sites, types, idioms) before generating, instead of relying on lossy in-context recall.

   Panther: Faster and Cheaper Computations with Randomized Numerical Linear Algebra

   Fahd Seddik, Abdulrahman Elbedewy, Gaser Sami, Mohamed Abdelmoniem, Yahia Zakaria

   Randomized numerical linear algebra primitives that drop into existing PyTorch layers – 5x speedup over the dense baseline and 75% parameter reduction at negligible accuracy cost on BERT.

   Analysis of AdvFusion: Adapter-based Multilingual Learning for Code LLMs

   Amirreza Esmaeili, Fahd Seddik, Yongyi Ji, Fatemeh Fard, Fuxiang Chen

   An empirical analysis of AdvFusion, an adapter-based multilingual training scheme for code LLMs, with a focus on cross-language transfer and pareto trade-offs.
