Wrong Design Intent Is Worse Than None: A Derangement-Control Diagnosis of Header Conditioning in CAD Program Completion

Read the original on arXiv Machine Learning →

arXiv:2607. 23191v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Fine-tuned code LLMs can be conditioned on a lightweight design-intent header to steer parametric CAD generation, but whether the model actually reads the header's content has not been tested under a metric independent of the conditioning itself, nor with a causal control.

Wrong Design Intent Is Worse Than Never Conditioning: A Derangement-Control Diagnosis of Header Conditioning in CAD Program Completion

arXiv:2607. 23191v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Fine-tuned code LLMs are routinely conditioned on a design-intent specification, but the correctness axis of such a signal -- a wrong intent rather than an absent one -- has not been tested, and the benefit of conditioning is usually scored with the same detector that defines the signal.

The Plan, Not the Decoder: Diagnosing and Repairing Compositional Failure in Reasoning-Augmented Text-to-Image Generation

The paper investigates why reasoning‑augmented text‑to‑image models like GoT‑R1 sometimes fail on compositional prompts. By separating the explicit textual plan from the decoder, the authors show that the decoder faithfully executes the plan while the planner often writes incorrect spatial relations, especially for phrasing‑dependent cues. Editing or replacing the plan improves image quality without retraining, demonstrating the viability of modular planner‑decoder architectures.

ModelEquivBench: Certifying Multi-Relational Evaluation of LLM-Generated Optimization Models

arXiv:2607. 29431v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language models increasingly generate optimization models from natural language, but existing evaluation often reduces a generated model and its ground truth to a single equivalent/not-equivalent verdict or an execution-success rate--labels that are neither independently checkable nor faithful to the multiple distinct senses in which two formulations can agree.

AgentDiff: Meaning-Bearing Rewrites Trigger Deeper Divergence than Presentation Changes in LLM Agents

The paper introduces AgentDiff, a metric that quantifies how much LLM agents’ answers differ when inputs are altered by meaning‑bearing rewrites (paraphrases, synonym substitutions) versus presentation changes (reordering, formatting, distractors). Across 68 model–benchmark–scaffold combinations involving ten LLMs and over 1,500 questions, meaning‑bearing rewrites consistently produce a roughly 20‑percentage‑point higher inconsistency rate than presentation changes, a gap that persists across severity proxies and remains significant even outside the Qwen family. Trace analysis reveals that meaning‑bearing rewrites preserve the first action but reduce thought similarity from the second step onward, extending the divergence cascade—a phenomenon termed “stealth divergence.”
