arXiv:2606. 25274v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Time-series models are usually scored as forecasters, yet deployed systems often require delayed decisions under uncertainty and hard feasibility constraints.

The paper introduces loss‑conditioned state execution, a model‑agnostic technique that decides whether to apply a world model’s proposed state change or keep the current state based on whether the change reduces downstream loss. It formalizes state movability as the existence of a loss‑reducing feasible correction and constructs loss‑specific proposals from predictive distributions, executing them only when a groupwise lower confidence bound on loss improvement is positive. Experiments on forecasting and dynamics benchmarks show that the method accepts updates for a subset of cases, achieving lower bounded loss than persistence or always executing the proposal, and highlights that event predictability and loss‑based decisions must be evaluated separately.

The paper demonstrates that emergent capabilities in machine learning models can be forecasted with lead time, calibrated uncertainty, and controlled false‑alarm rates. Using per‑seed analysis on transformers, the authors show that the formation time of a previous‑token head predicts the emergence of an induction head with Spearman ρ = 0.977 and a median lead of 975 training steps. Conformal intervals, blind pre‑registered tests, and a multiplicative rule relating anchor and event times further validate the predictive framework across multiple model families and configurations.

arXiv:2607. 10972v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Many evaluations of model outputs rely either on contracts checkable at evaluation time or on feedback that arrives within the operating loop.

Many evaluations of model outputs rely either on contracts checkable at evaluation time or on feedback that arrives within the operating loop. We study the complementary setting in which ground truth is delayed, censored, or private, so deterministic code cannot check correctness at scoring time and must instead issue a code-owned provisional forecast.
