arXiv:2608. 09902v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We introduce the Dark Souls Learning Environment (DSLE), a containerized platform that presents all 22 boss encounters of Dark Souls: Remastered as game-playing agent benchmarks through a Gymnasium-style interface.
We introduce the Dark Souls Learning Environment (DSLE), a containerized platform that presents all 22 boss encounters of Dark Souls: Remastered as game-playing agent benchmarks through a Gymnasium-style interface. DSLE combines real-time combat, high-dimensional visual input, and sparse terminal rewards, with each environment step being a real action executed against the running game.
arXiv:2607. 29577v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Games and simulators make valuable benchmarks by turning decisions into measurable outcomes, but many current suites under-test rules-rich tactical reasoning: the ability to choose well when geometry, timing, resources, objectives, and rule interactions all matter at once.
arXiv:2606. 10389v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Recent advances in LLM-driven code evolution have enabled automated discovery by iteratively generating and improving programs.
arXiv:2607. 28074v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Computer-use agents learn from what their actions change, so training one needs applications it can act on, break and reset.
arXiv:2608. 04317v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Autonomous cyber defense systems based on Deep Reinforcement Learning (DRL) have attracted significant research attention, yet remain evaluated almost exclusively against static, heuristic red agents, leaving their robustness against adaptive threats critically understudied.
arXiv:2607. 06854v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Reinforcement learning agents for imperfect-information card games are only as strong as the opponents they train against, and they are hard to grade, since they beat a random opponent over 99 percent of the time and only tie copies of themselves.
arXiv:2604. 02721v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Competitive programming remains one of the last few human strongholds in coding against AI.
Autonomous cyber defense systems based on Deep Reinforcement Learning (DRL) have attracted significant research attention, yet remain evaluated almost exclusively against static, heuristic red agents, leaving their robustness against adaptive threats critically understudied. Meanwhile, recent advances in Reinforcement Learning with Verifiable Rewards (RLVR) have improved LLM reasoning, but their integration into cybersecurity remains elusive due to the absence of suitable benchmark environments and interaction datasets.
arXiv:2607. 02255v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Memory for a long-horizon LLM agent is a contract about what each future decision is allowed to see.
Computer-use agents learn from what their actions change, so training one needs applications it can act on, break and reset. The applications that matter most are login-gated and stateful, so synthetic environments stand in for them.
arXiv:2607. 05904v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Training a language model against its own reference-free judgments (the premise of self-rewarding, self-play, and LLM-as-a-judge pipelines) assumes a model's verdict on a shown answer tracks correctness.
arXiv:2606. 09826v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Vision-language model (VLM) agents are increasingly deployed in interactive game environments.
