arXiv:2607. 11958v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Under the free energy principle, a predictive system does not observe reality directly; it maintains a generative model of the world and experiences that model's best current hypothesis.

arXiv:2608. 05111v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: In partially observable reinforcement learning, agents face a dual bottleneck: they must explore to encounter rewarding states and retain that experience in memory to optimize their policies.
By Jai Malegaonkar, Rohan Patil, Henrik I. Christensen
arXiv:2606. 32038v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: When does training language models (LMs) to generate explanations of their predictions yield faithful introspection, rather than superficial imitation?
By Zifan Carl Guo, Laura Ruis, Jacob Andreas, Belinda Z. Li
arXiv:2607. 11523v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: When should an intelligent assistant speak up without being asked?
By Gong Sitong, Tianyu Yan, Caixin Kang, Bo Zheng, Xiang Ruan, Huchuan Lu, Kaipeng Zhang, Yoichi Sato, Yifei Huang
arXiv:2605. 13438v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Existing agent memory remains predominantly reactive and retrieval-based, lacking the capacity to autonomously organize experience into persistent cognitive structure.

arXiv:2607. 01480v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Reinforcement learning with verifiable rewards (RLVR), along with recent selfdistillation variants such as SDPO, evaluates each rollout against a verifier and updates the policy from that episode-level signal.

arXiv:2606. 31495v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We study a single idea across two settings: that a prediction-error signal, computed by a small predictor over the latent space of a frozen encoder, can serve both as a gate on plasticity and as a substrate for metacognition.
By Louis Mouchon
arXiv:2607. 07847v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: As large language models (LLMs) become increasingly capable, the next question is how can we enable models to continually learn?

arXiv:2606. 30191v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: How does an agent that can tell self from world come to be durably shaped by that distinction?
By Haoliang Han
arXiv:2604. 27031v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: In a continual learning setting, we require a model to be plastic enough to learn a new task and stable enough to not disturb previously learned capabilities.

arXiv:2606. 12200v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We study policy representation learning from unlabeled multi-policy behavioral data.

When should an intelligent assistant speak up without being asked? Continuous egocentric video offers rich, evolving context that enables a new form of assistance: one that is proactive rather than merely reactive.
