Robust Code RL via Faulty-Code-Driven Test case Synthesis and Dense Reward Shaping

The paper introduces RobustTests, a framework that improves reinforcement learning for code generation by synthesizing test cases from faulty code and refining rewards with a dense, stepwise function. It uses validator agents and behavioral clustering to filter out invalid or redundant tests, and incorporates pass‑rate‑based rewards to counter hallucination noise. Experiments on CodeContests and LiveCodeBench show that fine‑tuning Qwen3‑32B with RobustTests yields a 3% absolute performance gain over baseline methods.

DeepBias: Adaptive In-depth Probing of Social Biases in LVLMs

While Large Vision-Language Models (LVLMs) demonstrate remarkable capabilities, they remain highly susceptible to embedded social biases. Existing bias evaluation protocols predominantly rely on static datasets, which provide only a superficial assessment, as their fixed test cases cannot adaptively evolve to measure the true depth and limits of model vulnerabilities.

TestifAI: Tomography-Based Testing for Deep Learning Systems

TestifAI is a deep learning testing framework that estimates model robustness against combinations of input perturbations efficiently. It allows users to define structured spaces of semantic perturbations and severity levels, then query robustness for any combination. By using partial model tomography, TestifAI reconstructs higher-order perturbation effects from low-order tests, achieving less than 7% error while reducing inferences by 60–80%.

\textsc{TestifAI}: Tomography-Based Testing for Deep Learning Systems

TestifAI is a deep learning testing framework that estimates model robustness against combinations of input perturbations efficiently. It allows users to define structured spaces of semantic perturbations and severity levels, then query robustness for any combination. By employing partial model tomography, TestifAI reconstructs higher‑order perturbation effects from low‑order tests, achieving less than 7% error while cutting inference counts by 60‑80% on image and language classification tasks.

\textsc{TestifAI}: Tomography-Based Testing for Deep Learning Systems

TestifAI is a deep learning testing framework that estimates model robustness against combinations of semantic input perturbations such as blur, brightness, and zoom. It allows users to define operational conditions as structured spaces with discrete severity levels and query robustness for any combination. By employing partial model tomography, TestifAI reconstructs higher‑order perturbation effects from low‑order tests, achieving less than 7% estimation error while reducing inference counts by 60‑80% across five image and language classification tasks.
