arXiv:2606. 28839v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We introduce the Contagion Tensor, a measurement framework for quantifying how large language model (LLM) output distributions couple across modalities, agents, and time steps.
arXiv:2607. 01600v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: As large language models (LLMs) are deployed as communicating agents, does inter-agent communication cause outputs to converge?
arXiv:2606. 16682v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: When AI agents use language models to evaluate their own outputs in a feedback loop, systematic biases emerge.

arXiv:2607. 09156v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Additive activation steering (injecting a scaled residual-stream direction during generation) is calibrated almost entirely in single-turn chat, yet the models it targets are increasingly deployed as tool-using ReAct agents.
arXiv:2606. 20493v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: When large language models serve as evaluators in multi-agent systems, their systematic evaluation biases propagate through the agent network.
arXiv:2606. 11190v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Cross-modal alignment (CA) and cross-modal prediction (CP) are the dominant paradigms for multimodal representation learning, yet there is no systematic understanding of when each succeeds, when each fails, and when cross-modal training helps at all -- a gap that leaves practitioners, especially in scientific domains like biomedicine or astrophysics, with heterogeneous instruments and multiple levels of organization and measurement, unable to diagnose why standard methods underperform the best single modality.
arXiv:2607. 04334v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Multimodal GUI agents read an interface through two redundant channels: the rendered pixels of a screenshot and a serialized structure such as a DOM or accessibility tree.
arXiv:2608. 12398v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We propose IM-LEPP (Integrated Multimodal Latent Energy-based Predictive Processing), a hierarchical, energy-based model of multimodal cognition that extends a previously proposed single-modality model (LEPP) to integrate vision and language.
Cross-modal alignment (CA) and cross-modal prediction (CP) are the dominant paradigms for multimodal representation learning, yet there is no systematic understanding of when each succeeds, when each fails, and when cross-modal training helps at all -- a gap that leaves practitioners, especially in scientific domains like biomedicine or astrophysics, with heterogeneous instruments and multiple levels of organization and measurement, unable to diagnose why standard methods underperform the best single modality. We develop a unified linear framework that addresses both questions.
arXiv:2512. 02076v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We propose FDRMFL, a task-driven multimodal feature extraction framework for federated regression under non-IID data distributions.
arXiv:2606. 07559v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Fine-tuning a language model on contexts whose correct completion has a near-synonym competitor often fails silently.
arXiv:2608. 05000v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Vision offers a critical axis for advancing foundation models, driving a shift towards natively unified multimodal pretraining.
