Conformal Risk-Calibrated Latent World Models with Runtime Assurance Under Distribution Shift
Learning-enabled autonomous controllers may fail when a compact world model remains confident outside its training distribution. We present the conformal disagreement-regulated latent world model (CDR-LWM). The method converts ensemble disagreement into a risk-calibrated, state-d...

A Novel Chemotype of Orally Active SARS-CoV-2 NSP14 Methyltransferase Inhibitors
Abstract The periodic emergence of human coronaviruses (hCoVs) necessitates direct-acting antivirals targeting underexploited viral proteins with broad-spectrum potential. Building on our discovery of TDI-015051, a first-in-class SARS-CoV-2 mRNA cap guanine-N7 methyltransferase (...

The economic value of urban soil carbon under competing carbon pricing perspectives in Prague
Abstract Urban soil carbon is increasingly incorporated into ecosystem service and climate policy assessments, yet its economic value is commonly reported without an explicit uncertainty range. In this paper, we quantify this uncertainty in urban soil valuation for the Prague Fun...
