Native Provenance Computation for Federated and Non-Federated SPARQL Queries

Authors: Zubaria Asma, Daniel Hernández, Luis Galárraga, Giorgos Flouris, Irini Fundulaki, and Katja Hose

Published in: TGDK, Volume 4, Issue 1 (2026). Transactions on Graph Data and Knowledge, Volume 4, Issue 1

Abstract
The popularity of knowledge graphs (KGs) owes credit to their flexible data model, which is suitable for data integration from multiple sources. Several KG-based applications, such as trust assessment, view maintenance, or data valuation on dynamic data, rely on the ability to compute provenance explanations for query results. This need becomes more urgent in federated query processing systems, which allow the online consumption of heterogeneous and decentralized Web data. However, the problem of computing and interacting with provenance has received little attention, especially in the federated setting. On those grounds, this paper introduces the NPCS (Native Provenance Computation for SPARQL) approach, and its federated variant Fed-NPCS, that compute provenance for SPARQL query results. Both approaches build upon spm-semirings to annotate the results of monotonic and non-monotonic SPARQL queries with their provenance. Due to their reliance on query rewriting techniques, the approaches are directly applicable to already deployed SPARQL engines and federations using different reification schemes, including RDF-star. Our experimental evaluation shows that our novel query rewriting approach brings significant run-time improvements w.r.t. the state-of-the-art across both centralized and federated settings. In centralized settings, our tests on two popular SPARQL engines (GraphDB and Stardog) reveal substantial runtime gains over existing query rewriting solutions, enabling scalability to RDF graphs with billions of triples. In federated settings, our experiments on the FedShop benchmark with GraphDB show the viability of Fed-NPCS for federations with up to 200 sources.

On the Computational Cost of Knowledge Graph Embeddings

Authors: Victor Charpenay, Mansour Zoubeirou A Mayaki, and Antoine Zimmermann

Published in: TGDK, Volume 4, Issue 1 (2026). Transactions on Graph Data and Knowledge, Volume 4, Issue 1

Abstract
Over a decade, numerous Knowledge Graph Embedding (KGE) models have been designed and evaluated on reference datasets, always with increasing performance. In this paper, we re-evaluate these models with respect to their computational efficiency during training, by estimating the computational cost of the procedure expressed in floating-point operations. We design a cost model based on analytical expressions and apply it on a collection of 20 KGE models, representative of the state-of-the-art. We show that dimensionality or parameter efficiency, used in the literature to compare models with each other, are not suitable to evaluate the true cost of models. Through fixed-budget experiments, a novel approach to evaluate KGE models based on cost estimates, we re-assess the relative performance of model families compared to the state-of-the-art. Bilinear models such as ComplEx underperform with a low computational budget while hyperbolic linear models appear to offer no particular benefit compared to simpler Euclidian models, especially the MuRE model. Neural models, such as ConvE or CompGCN, achieve reasonable performance in the literature but their high computational cost appears unnecessary when compared with other models. The trade-off between efficiency and expressivity of both linear and neural models is to be further explored.

Authors: Augusto de Souza, Alexandre dos Santos Roque, Carlos Eduardo Pereira, and Edison Pignaton de Freitas

Published in: OASIcs, Volume 140, 7th Workshop on Next Generation Real-Time Embedded Systems (NG-RES 2026)

Abstract
This paper presents the design and development of an alternative, cost-effective automated piece positioning system, specifically tailored for Small and Medium-sized Enterprises (SMEs), which integrates computer vision with EtherCAT-controlled servo motors. The proposed method combines a robust vision system with an AI-enhanced algorithm based on edge detection to precisely identify object contours. This enables a Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) to control the servo motor, adjusting the piece’s angle with high accuracy. Experimental results demonstrate the solution’s practical viability, achieving a minimal angular oscillation of less than 0.0012° and a promising low image processing time of approximately 20ms, showcasing its potential for enhancing manufacturing efficiency and quality in industrial applications.

Computational Hardness of Estimating Quantum Entropies via Binary Entropy Bounds

Authors: Yupan Liu

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 364, 43rd International Symposium on Theoretical Aspects of Computer Science (STACS 2026)

Abstract
We investigate the computational hardness of estimating the quantum α-Rényi entropy S^𝚁_α(ρ) = (ln Tr(ρ^α))/(1-α) and the quantum q-Tsallis entropy S^𝚃_q(ρ) = (1-Tr(ρ^q))/(q-1), both converging to the von Neumann entropy as the order approaches 1. The promise problems Quantum α-Rényi Entropy Approximation (RényiQEA_α) and Quantum q-Tsallis Entropy Approximation (TsallisQEA_q) ask whether S^𝚁_α(ρ) or S^𝚃_q(ρ), respectively, is at least τ_Y or at most τ_N, where τ_Y - τ_N is typically a positive constant. Previous hardness results cover only the von Neumann entropy (order 1) and some cases of the quantum q-Tsallis entropy, while existing approaches do not readily extend to other orders. We establish that for all positive real orders, the rank-2 variants Rank2RényiQEA_α and Rank2TsallisQEA_q are BQP-hard. Combined with prior (rank-dependent) quantum query algorithms in Wang, Guan, Liu, Zhang, and Ying (TIT 2024), Wang, Zhang, and Li (TIT 2024), and Liu and Wang (SODA 2025), our results imply: - For all real order α > 0 and 0 < q ≤ 1, LowRankRényiQEA_α and LowRankTsallisQEA_q are BQP-complete, where both are restricted versions of RényiQEA_α and TsallisQEA_q with ρ of polynomial rank. - For all real order q > 1, TsallisQEA_q is BQP-complete. Our hardness results stem from reductions based on new inequalities relating the α-Rényi or q-Tsallis binary entropies of different orders, where the reductions differ substantially from previous approaches, and the inequalities are also of independent interest.

The Hardness of Learning Quantum Circuits and Its Cryptographic Applications

Authors: Bill Fefferman, Soumik Ghosh, Makrand Sinha, and Henry Yuen

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 362, 17th Innovations in Theoretical Computer Science Conference (ITCS 2026)

Abstract
We show that concrete hardness assumptions about learning or cloning the output state of a random quantum circuit can be used as the foundation for secure quantum cryptography. In particular, under these assumptions we construct secure one-way state generators (OWSGs), digital signature schemes, quantum bit commitments, and private key encryption schemes. We also discuss evidence for these hardness assumptions by analyzing the best-known quantum learning algorithms, as well as proving black-box lower bounds for cloning and learning given state preparation oracles. Our random circuit-based constructions provide concrete instantiations of quantum cryptographic primitives whose security do not depend on the existence of one-way functions. The use of random circuits in our constructions also opens the door to {NISQ-friendly quantum cryptography}. We discuss noise tolerant versions of our OWSG and digital signature constructions which can potentially be implementable on noisy quantum computers connected by a quantum network. On the other hand, they are still secure against {noiseless} quantum adversaries, raising the intriguing possibility of a useful implementation of an end-to-end cryptographic protocol on near-term quantum computers. Finally, our explorations suggest that the rich interconnections between learning theory and cryptography in classical theoretical computer science also extend to the quantum setting.

Anti-Concentration for the Unitary Haar Measure and Applications to Random Quantum Circuits

Authors: Bill Fefferman, Soumik Ghosh, and Wei Zhan

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 362, 17th Innovations in Theoretical Computer Science Conference (ITCS 2026)

Abstract
We prove a Carbery-Wright style anti-concentration inequality for the unitary Haar measure, by showing that the probability of a polynomial in the entries of a random unitary falling into an ε range is at most a polynomial in ε. Using it, we show that the scrambling speed of a random quantum circuit is lower bounded: Namely, every input qubit has an influence that is at least inverse exponential in depth, on any output qubit touched by its lightcone. Our result on scrambling speed works with high probability over the choice of a circuit from an ensemble, as opposed to just working in expectation. As an application, we give the first polynomial-time algorithm for learning log-depth random quantum circuits with Haar random gates up to polynomially small diamond distance, given oracle access to the circuit. Other applications of this new scrambling speed lower bound include: - An optimal Ω(log ε^{-1}) depth lower bound for ε-approximate unitary designs on any circuit architecture; - A polynomial-time quantum algorithm that computes the depth of a bounded-depth circuit, given oracle access to the circuit. Our learning and depth-testing algorithms apply to architectures defined over any geometric dimension, and can be generalized to a wide class of architectures with good lightcone properties.

Mining Inter-Document Argument Structures in Scientific Papers for an Argument Web

Authors: Florian Ruosch, Cristina Sarasua, and Abraham Bernstein

Published in: TGDK, Volume 3, Issue 3 (2025). Transactions on Graph Data and Knowledge, Volume 3, Issue 3

Abstract
In Argument Mining, predicting argumentative relations between texts (or spans) remains one of the most challenging aspects, even more so in the cross-document setting. This paper makes three key contributions to advance research in this domain. We first extend an existing dataset, the Sci-Arg corpus, by annotating it with explicit inter-document argumentative relations, thereby allowing arguments to be distributed over several documents forming an Argument Web; these new annotations are published using Semantic Web technologies (RDF, OWL). Second, we explore and evaluate three automated approaches for predicting these inter-document argumentative relations, establishing critical baselines on the new dataset. We find that a simple classifier based on discourse indicators with access to context outperforms neural methods. Third, we conduct a comparative analysis of these approaches for both intra- and inter-document settings, identifying statistically significant differences in results that indicate the necessity of distinguishing between these two scenarios. Our findings highlight significant challenges in this complex domain and open crucial avenues for future research on the Argument Web of Science, particularly for those interested in leveraging Semantic Web technologies and knowledge graphs to understand scholarly discourse. With this, we provide the first stepping stones in the form of a benchmark dataset, three baseline methods, and an initial analysis for a systematic exploration of this field relevant to the Web of Data and Science.

Exact and Heuristic Dynamic Taxi Sharing with Transfers Using Shortest-Path Speedup Techniques

Authors: Johannes Breitling and Moritz Laupichler

Published in: OASIcs, Volume 137, 25th Symposium on Algorithmic Approaches for Transportation Modelling, Optimization, and Systems (ATMOS 2025)

Abstract
We introduce a first-of-its-kind efficient, exact algorithm for the dynamic taxi-sharing problem with single-transfer journeys, i.e., a dispatcher that assigns traveler requests to a fleet of shared taxi-like vehicles allowing transfers between vehicles. We extend an existing no-transfer solution by collecting all viable pickup and dropoff vehicles for a request and computing the optimal transfer point for every pair of vehicles. We analyze underlying shortest-path problems and employ state-of-the-art routing algorithms to compute distances on-the-fly, which serves as the basis of dispatching requests with exact and up-to-date travel time information. We utilize constraints on existing routes, pruning techniques for transfer points, and both instruction- and thread-level parallelism to speed up the computation of the best assignment for every traveler. In addition to the exact variant, we propose a tunable heuristic approach that sacrifices solution quality in favor of improved running time. We evaluate our algorithm on a large road network with realistic input sets (up to 150000 requests). We demonstrate the effectiveness of our speedup techniques and the heuristic. We show first results on the benefits of transfers for taxi sharing on dense request sets, proving that our algorithm is well suited for the analysis of taxi sharing with transfers on large input instances.

Resilience in Knowledge Graph Embeddings

Authors: Arnab Sharma, N'Dah Jean Kouagou, and Axel-Cyrille Ngonga Ngomo

Published in: TGDK, Volume 3, Issue 2 (2025). Transactions on Graph Data and Knowledge, Volume 3, Issue 2

Abstract
In recent years, knowledge graphs have gained interest and witnessed widespread applications in various domains, such as information retrieval, question-answering, recommendation systems, amongst others. Large-scale knowledge graphs to this end have demonstrated their utility in effectively representing structured knowledge. To further facilitate the application of machine learning techniques, knowledge graph embedding models have been developed. Such models can transform entities and relationships within knowledge graphs into vectors. However, these embedding models often face challenges related to noise, missing information, distribution shift, adversarial attacks, etc. This can lead to sub-optimal embeddings and incorrect inferences, thereby negatively impacting downstream applications. While the existing literature has focused so far on adversarial attacks on KGE models, the challenges related to the other critical aspects remain unexplored. In this paper, we, first of all, give a unified definition of resilience, encompassing several factors such as generalisation, in-distribution generalization, distribution adaption, and robustness. After formalizing these concepts for machine learning in general, we define them in the context of knowledge graphs. To find the gap in the existing works on resilience in the context of knowledge graphs, we perform a systematic survey, taking into account all these aspects mentioned previously. Our survey results show that most of the existing works focus on a specific aspect of resilience, namely robustness. After categorizing such works based on their respective aspects of resilience, we discuss the challenges and future research directions.

Temporal Ensemble Logic for Integrative Representation of the Entirety of Clinical Trials

Authors: Xiaojin Li, Yan Huang, Rashmie Abeysinghe, Zenan Sun, Hongyu Chen, Pengze Li, Xing He, Shiqiang Tao, Cui Tao, Jiang Bian, Licong Cui, and Guo-Qiang Zhang

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 355, 32nd International Symposium on Temporal Representation and Reasoning (TIME 2025)

Abstract
Clinical trials are typically specified with protocols that define eligibility criteria, treatment regimens, follow-up schedules, and outcome assessments. Temporality is a hallmark of all clinical trials, reflected within and across trial components, with complex dependencies unfolding across multiple time points. Despite their importance, clinical trial protocols are described in free-text format, limiting their semantic precision and the ability to support automated reasoning, leverage data across studies and sites, or simulate trial execution under varying assumptions using Real-World Data. This paper introduces a formalized representation of clinical trials using Temporal Ensemble Logic (TEL). TEL incorporates metricized modal operators, such as "always until t" (□_t) and "possibly until t" (◇_t), where t is a time-length parameter, to offer a logical framework for capturing phenotypes in biomedicine. TEL is more expressive in syntax than classical linear temporal logic (LTL) while maintaining the simplicity of semantic structures. The attributes of TEL are exploited in this paper to formally represent not only individual clinical trial components, but also the timing and sequential dependencies of these components as a whole. Modeling strategies and demonstration case studies are provided to show that TEL can represent the entirety of clinical trials, whereby providing a formal logical framework that can be used to represent the intricate temporal dependencies in trial structure specification. Since clinical trials are a cornerstone of evidence-based medicine, serving as the scientific basis for evaluating the safety, efficacy, and comparative effectiveness of therapeutic interventions, results reported here can serve as a stepping stone that leads to scalable, consistent, and reproducible representation and simulation of clinical trials across all disease domains.

Combined Search and Encoding for Seeds, with an Application to Minimal Perfect Hashing

Authors: Hans-Peter Lehmann, Peter Sanders, Stefan Walzer, and Jonatan Ziegler

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 351, 33rd Annual European Symposium on Algorithms (ESA 2025)

Abstract
Randomised algorithms often employ methods that can fail and that are retried with independent randomness until they succeed. Randomised data structures therefore often store indices of successful attempts, called seeds. If n such seeds are required (e.g., for independent substructures) the standard approach is to compute for each i ∈ [n] the smallest successful seed S_i and store S = (S_1,…,S_n). The central observation of this paper is that this is not space-optimal. We present a different algorithm that computes a sequence S' = (S_1',…,S_n') of successful seeds such that the entropy of S' undercuts the entropy of S by Ω(n) bits in most cases. To achieve a memory consumption of OPT+εn, the expected number of inspected seeds increases by a factor of 𝒪(1/ε). We demonstrate the usefulness of our findings with a novel construction for minimal perfect hash functions that, for n keys and any ε ∈ [n^{-3/7},1], has space requirement (1+ε)OPT and construction time 𝒪(n/ε). All previous approaches only support ε = ω(1/log n) or have construction times that increase exponentially with 1/ε. Our implementation beats the construction throughput of the state of the art by more than two orders of magnitude for ε ≤ 3%.

Toward an Earth-Independent System for EVA Mission Planning: Integrating Physical Models, Domain Knowledge, and Agentic RAG to Provide Explainable LLM-Based Decision Support

Authors: Kaisheng Li and Richard S. Whittle

Published in: OASIcs, Volume 130, Advancing Human-Computer Interaction for Space Exploration (SpaceCHI 2025)

Abstract
We propose a unified framework for an Earth‑independent AI system that provides explainable, context‑aware decision support for EVA mission planning by integrating six core components: a fine‑tuned EVA domain LLM, a retrieval‑augmented knowledge base, a short-term memory store, physical simulation models, an agentic orchestration layer, and a multimodal user interface. To ground our design, we analyze the current roles and substitution potential of the Mission Control Center - identifying which procedural and analytical functions can be automated onboard while preserving human oversight for experiential and strategic tasks. Building on this framework, we introduce RASAGE (Retrieval & Simulation Augmented Guidance Agent for Exploration), a proof‑of‑concept toolset that combines Microsoft Phi‑4‑mini‑instruct with a FAISS (Facebook AI Similarity Search)‑powered EVA knowledge base and custom A* path planning and hypogravity metabolic models to generate grounded, traceable EVA plans. We outline a staged validation strategy to evaluate improvements in route efficiency, metabolic prediction accuracy, anomaly response effectiveness, and crew trust under realistic communication delays. Our findings demonstrate the feasibility of replicating key Mission Control functions onboard, enhancing crew autonomy, reducing cognitive load, and improving safety for deep‑space exploration missions.

In-Browser C++ Interpreter for Lightweight Intelligent Programming Learning Environments

Authors: Tomas Blažauskas, Arnoldas Rauba, Jakub Swacha, Raffaele Montella, and Rytis Maskeliunas

Published in: OASIcs, Volume 133, 6th International Computer Programming Education Conference (ICPEC 2025)

Abstract
The paper presents a browser native C++ interpreter integrated into an AI-assisted educational platform designed to enhance programming learning in formal education. The interpreter leverages Parsing Expression Grammars (PEG) to generate Abstract Syntax Trees (AST) and executes C++ code using a TypeScript-based runtime. The system supports key C++ features, including pointer arithmetic, function overloading, and namespace resolution, and emulates memory management via reference-counted JavaScript objects. Integrated within a web-based learning environment, it provides automated feedback, error explanations, and code quality evaluations. The evaluation involved 4582 students in three difficulty levels and feedback from 14 teachers. The results include high system usability scale (SUS) scores (avg. 83.5) and WBLT learning effectiveness scores (avg. 4.58/5). Interpreter performance testing in 65 cases averaged under 10 ms per task, confirming its practical applicability to school curricula. The system supports SCORM and PWA deployment, enabling LMS-independent usage. The work introduces a technical innovation in browser-based C++ execution and a scalable framework for LLM-enhanced programming pedagogy.

Cutoff Theorems for the Equivalence of Parameterized Quantum Circuits

Authors: Neil J. Ross and Scott Wesley

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 345, 50th International Symposium on Mathematical Foundations of Computer Science (MFCS 2025)

Abstract
Many promising quantum algorithms in economics, medical science, and material science rely on circuits that are parameterized by a large number of angles. To ensure that these algorithms are efficient, these parameterized circuits must be heavily optimized. However, most quantum circuit optimizers are not verified, so this procedure is known to be error-prone. For this reason, there is growing interest in the design of equivalence checking algorithms for parameterized quantum circuits. In this paper, we define a generalized class of parameterized circuits with arbitrary rotations and show that this problem is decidable for cyclotomic gate sets. We propose a cutoff-based procedure which reduces the problem of verifying the equivalence of parameterized quantum circuits to the problem of verifying the equivalence of finitely many parameter-free quantum circuits. Because the number of parameter-free circuits grows exponentially with the number of parameters, we also propose a probabilistic variant of the algorithm for cases when the number of parameters is intractably large. We show that our techniques extend to equivalence modulo global phase, and describe an efficient angle sampling procedure for cyclotomic gate sets.

Leakless Polymerase-Dependent Strand Displacement Systems

Authors: Zoë Evelyn Mōhalakealoha Derauf and Chris Thachuk

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 347, 31st International Conference on DNA Computing and Molecular Programming (DNA 31) (2025)

Abstract
A grand challenge facing molecular programmers is the rational development of fast, robust, and isothermal architectures akin to "chemical central processing units" that can sense (bio-)chemical signals from their environment, perform complex computation, and orchestrate a physical response in situ. DNA strand displacement systems (DSDs) remain a compelling candidate, but are hampered by spurious reaction pathways that lead to incorrect output. DSDs that utilize the systematic leakless motif can be made arbitrarily robust at the cost of increasing redundancy and network size (scaling), and thus a degradation of kinetic performance. Another class of architectures utilize DNA hybridization, extension, and signal production of entirely sequestered outputs via strand-displacing polymerases (SDPs) that have resulted in impressive demonstrations; however, they face similar challenges of aberrant behavior such as mis-priming by incorrect signals. Our work introduces a unified polymerase-dependent toehold-mediated strand displacement (PD-TMSD) architecture that integrates the programmed specificity of DSDs with the unique advantages of SDPs. This unification enables systems that can be made arbitrarily robust, at any concentration range, without increasing network size. We propose a number of gate designs and composition rules to compute arbitrary Boolean functions, emulate arbitrary chemical reaction networks, and explore time-bounded probabilistic computation made possible by certain classes of SDPs. Our theoretical exploration is backed by preliminary experimental demonstrations. This contribution was inspired by the belief that molecular programming can meet or exceed the complexity exhibited in biology if we embrace its best understood molecular machinery and couple it with systematic design principles built upon a strong theoretical foundation.
