Safety-Constrained Learning for Intelligent Systems: From Risk-Aware Planning to Safety Aligned Large Language Models

School of Computing and Information Systems This dissertation studies how to build intelligent systems that are safe without sacrificing their usefulness. It addresses this challenge in two settings: long-horizon reinforcement learning and large language model alignment. For sequential decision-making, the thesis proposes a constrained hierarchical reinforcement learning framework that treats safety as an explicit and adjustable planning objective. By combining high-level constrained subgoal planning with low-level goal-conditioned control, the method improves task success, constraint satisfaction, and re-planning efficiency in safety-critical environments. For language alignment, the thesis develops two complementary methods for improving LLM safety. The first is a semantics-guided supervised fine-tuning approach that uses harmful data only and encourages models to move away from unsafe responses while preserving general capability. The second, Discernment via Contrastive Refinement (DCR), reduces over-refusal by separating the representations of trul… Subtitle: PhD Dissertation Defense by LU Yuxiao.

Perspectives on Interpretability of Neural Models for Representing Text

School of Computing and Information Systems In this dissertation, we investigate interpretability in the three elements of learning neural text representations: inputs, models, and outputs. We emphasise perspective as we present alternative novel methods to mine and organise meaning in this work. Firstly, examining models, we propose an alternate angle of interpreting Neural Topic Models word-topic distribution, producing better topic representations for interpretation. Next, we apply our previous findings to mine interpretations from the weights of transformer-based Large Language Models. Second, for outputs, as observations is critical to interpretability evaluations, we examine text representations from the human mental model. We propose and formulate a large-scale correlation analysis and accompanying user studies to examine automated coherence metrics and human evaluations. Finally, the model and its corresponding outputs learn from the pre-defined boundaries of the input space. For neural text representations, that would be the token space consis… Subtitle: PhD Dissertation Defense by LIM Jia Peng. Contact: scisseminars@smu.edu.sg.

Yong Pung How Professorship of Law Lecture: Corporate National Identity: What Lawyers Are Missing

Centre for Cross Border Commercial Law in Asia Who determines the national identity of a corporation, and on what basis? The standard legal tests — incorporation, real seat, corporate control through equity ownership — have long provided a working answer. That answer is no longer sufficient. Corporate national identity has become a site of intense contestation and a first-order governance issue for boards, states, and markets — a development with profound practical and scholarly consequences. The stakes are especially high in Singapore, which has become the preferred redomiciliation destination for major Chinese firms seeking to mitigate geopolitical exposure. For lawyers, business leaders, and policymakers, understanding corporate national identity through the legal facet alone now produces material blind spots. This lecture introduces a framework that exposes what the traditional legal lens misses. The implications reach across cross-border M&A, corporate governance, and the capacity of corporate law to absorb the geopolitical pressures now reshaping i… Fee(s): Complimentary.

STARI Lunchtime Seminar - Reducing Complexity in DTA Interpretation through Digital Innovation

Centre for Cross Border Commercial Law in Asia This paper considers an area of complexity in international tax law – the interpretation of double taxation agreements (DTAs). In this paper we examine DTA interpretation complexity by focussing on individual residence articles in DTAs based on the OECD Model Tax Convention on Income and on Capital (the OECD Model), which underpins more than 3,000 bilateral DTAs worldwide. Residence articles based on Article 4 of the OECD Model are ideal candidates for examining complexity in international tax, given the relevance of foreign case law to their interpretation. Establishing an individual’s tax residence in a contracting State to the DTA is a precondition for applying DTA articles and obtaining treaty protection from double taxation. Where an individual is a tax resident under the domestic law of both contracting States, Article 4 sets out a series of five tiebreaker tests which are sequentially applied to conclusively determine the individual’s residence for the purpose of the DTA. Although the text of residenc… Fee(s): Complimentary, Successful registrant will receive a confirmation email by 22 May 2026 from ccla@smu.edu.sg to confirm your registration.

Stance-Linked Provenance: How Voter Identity Disclosure Reshapes Voting and Suggestion Incorporation on Crowdsourcing Platforms

School of Computing and Information Systems Digital knowledge production on collaborative platforms is governed by the interplay between crowd evaluation and feedback, especially in the generative AI era, when ideas and suggestions can be produced at far greater speed and scale. This study examines how evaluator identity disclosure shapes users’ evaluation and ideators’ incorporation of crowd feedback. Leveraging a design change on TVTropes that shifted voting from anonymous to attributable, we find that identity disclosure reduces both positive and negative evaluations, suggesting lower evaluative participation. We also find that the incorporation of detractor feedback is reduced with identity disclosure, indicating that ideators are less receptive to opposing input when feedback is tied to revealed evaluative stance. These findings reveal a governance trade-off: while identity disclosure enhances accountability and transparency, it simultaneously reduces participation and limits learning from dissent.

Aligned Multi-View Scripts for Universal Chart-to-Code Generation

School of Computing and Information Systems Chart-to-code generation converts a chart image into an executable plotting script, enabling faithful reproduction and editable visualizations. Existing methods are largely Python-centric, limiting practical use and overlooking a critical source of supervision: the same chart can be expressed by semantically equivalent scripts in different plotting languages. To fill this gap, we introduce Chart2NCode, a dataset of 176K charts paired with aligned scripts in Python, R, and LaTeX that render visually equivalent outputs, constructed via a metadata-to-template pipeline with rendering verification and human quality checks. Building on a LLaVA-style architecture, we further propose CharLuMA, a parameter-efficient adaptation module that augments the multimodal projector with a language-conditioned mixture of low-rank subspaces, allowing the model to share core chart understanding while specializing code generation to the target language through lightweight routing.

Bebchuk will examine three rival conceptions that have had substantia traction in the “real world” of politics and business – those of Friedmanesque Capitalism, which supports a corporate maximization of shareholder profits and a limited role for the government, Managerial Stakeholderism, which advocates encouraging and relying on corporate leaders to use their discretion to serve also stakeholders not only shareholders but, and Democratic Capitalism, which is deeply concerned about corporate externalities but seeks to address them through external governmental interventions and limiting corporate leaders’ ability to impede such interventions.
