One Rewrite to Fix Them All? Type-Aware Repair Allocation for Text-to-Image Prompt Optimization

arXiv:2607. 18724v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Text-to-image (T2I) generators often fail to follow their prompts faithfully, producing wrong counts, swapped attributes, ambiguous relations, and illegible text.

Don't Regenerate, Debug: A Domain-Specific Agent for Repairing Near-Miss Hardware Operators

arXiv:2608. 02712v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Kernel generation for hardware accelerators such as GPUs and NPUs has become a proving ground for large language models (LLMs), and state-of-the-art systems raise correctness through pipelines that couple LLMs with agentic reinforcement learning and evolutionary search.

Dictionary-Guided Mutation Operators for Automated HDL Repair

The paper introduces a dictionary-guided HDL repair system that uses ANTLR-derived mutation vocabularies and a simulation-divergence fault localization module to generate syntactically valid Verilog mutations. The mutation operator performs token substitutions, insertions, and deletions via regex matching, while the fault localization scores source lines based on proximity to diverging output wires, guiding the search. Evaluated on the CirFix benchmark, the approach achieves correct repairs on 14 bug variants, including a multi-bug case, and outperforms CirFix with an 18x speedup on a two-edit benchmark.

SkillForge: Compositional Skill Synthesis with Verification-in-the-Loop for Generating Formally Verified Dafny Programs

SkillForge is a framework that breaks down formal code synthesis into reusable atomic skills, each handling a specific subtask such as specification inference, body synthesis, invariant generation, error diagnosis, or repair. A verification-driven harness coordinates these skills by submitting candidates to the Dafny verifier, diagnosing failures, and routing them deterministically to the appropriate repair skill until correctness is achieved or a budget is reached. On a curated benchmark, SkillForge outperforms state‑of‑the‑art agentic and iterative baselines, requiring fewer tokens and lower latency, with ablation studies showing each skill’s measurable contribution and rapid convergence.

ReLoop: Structured Modeling and Behavioral Verification for Reliable LLM-Based Optimization

arXiv:2602. 15983v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) can translate natural language into optimization code, but silent failures pose a critical risk: code that executes and returns solver-feasible solutions may encode semantically incorrect formulations---a feasibility--correctness gap reaching 90 percentage points on compositional problems.
