The paper presents a compliance screening system that evaluates blockchain addresses by their position in a large multi‑chain transaction graph instead of relying on sanctions lists. Using a single graph of 835 million addresses and 15.8 billion edges across five EVM chains, the system employs a shared inductive encoder with per‑chain normalization and two scoring heads, with decision thresholds set as exact quantiles of the score distribution. The authors demonstrate label‑free transfer, achieving high recall on held‑out positives for Base, Arbitrum, and Gnosis, and report significant lead‑time in flagging external registry events, efficient serving latency, and robustness checks against adversarial behavior.
arXiv:2606. 10241v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Autonomous improvement loops are hard to trust because the improvement process is usually external scaffolding bolted onto the agent: failures go unlogged, diagnoses cannot be replayed, and promote-or-discard decisions land in a side database rather than the agent's own history.

The paper introduces DISCERN, a two-tier protocol for certifying that updates to production models do not increase risk. It first uses unlabeled data to detect benign updates based on disagreement rates, then selectively labels only disagreements through an anytime-valid confidence sequence. The method achieves finite-sample validity with label-complexity bounds of order ρ²/ε², demonstrating significant label savings and strong empirical performance across 14,000+ audit streams.

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:2608. 05863v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Modern models no longer keep a plain KV cache: latent caches, learned sparse selectors and recurrent states each carry the model's memory in a different form, and each fails differently under compression.

The paper argues that in multi‑turn agentic reinforcement learning, credit assignment should be viewed as a coverage problem rather than a targeting problem. It introduces verifier information density (V_d) as a structural metric, showing that terminal‑state verifiers operate in a low‑V_d regime where targeting fails. Experiments on tau^2‑bench, BFCL, and ToolACE‑2‑8B demonstrate that uniformly distributing reward across all turns outperforms sparse, targeted rewards, and that full chain coverage is necessary for optimal performance.

The paper introduces Verifier-Certified Rule Transport (VCRT), a method that uses native verifiers to replay adjacent operation pairs and identify commutation certificates or anti-diamonds, thereby distinguishing true logical dependencies from mere serialization choices in reinforcement learning with verifiable rewards. VCRT assigns policy credit based on the total probability mass of each certified orbit and imposes constraints on post-swap consistency, source retention, and policy drift. In leave-one-environment-out transfer experiments across ProofWriter, CLRS, and Lean, VCRT achieves a 77.60% macro pass rate, outperforming the strongest baseline by 13.06 points, with the largest gains observed in Lean.
