Tool use, function calling, orchestration and the protocols that let models act rather than only answer.
arXiv:2608. 13951v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Scaling agent capability has largely focused on improving the model, yet an interactive agent acts through a runtime harness that mediates context, tools, control flow, and stopping.
arXiv:2608. 13926v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language models have made natural language interfaces to databases (NLIDB) newly credible, but LLM text-to-SQL systems fail in a way that matters for deployment: a hallucinated column or a mis-aggregated total yields a fluent wrong answer, indistinguishable at the point of use from a right one.
arXiv:2608. 13574v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: LLM agents increasingly operate as execution systems that invoke tools, modify local state, use persistent memory, and interact with external protocols.
arXiv:2608. 14228v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Life science knowledge graphs make large collections of structured data available through SPARQL, but each resource uses its own schema, identifiers, and links.
arXiv:2608. 14332v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Reinforcement learning is promising for autonomous urban driving, but long-horizon goal-directed navigation asks a policy to acquire several competing behaviors at once--reaching a distant goal, tracking a route, avoiding obstacles, obeying signals--and a fixed objective gives no order in which to learn them.
arXiv:2608. 14047v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: This paper integrates end-to-end Visual-Language-Action (VLA) models with agentic tool-use to propose Agentic Robot with Tool-use (ART).
arXiv:2602. 06746v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: We study multi-task reinforcement learning (RL), a setting in which an agent learns a single, universal policy capable of generalising to arbitrary, possibly unseen tasks.
arXiv:2608. 13675v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Between October 2018 and July 2026 AI models progressed from simple systems like BERT to massive agents that solve complex math and write software.
arXiv:2604. 16509v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Many robotic exploration algorithms rely on graph structures for frontier-based exploration and dynamic path planning.
arXiv:2608. 14352v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large Language Model (LLM)-based agents are increasingly used for complex tasks such as software testing and cybersecurity assessment.
arXiv:2602. 15572v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Agent-based modelling (ABM) is a widespread approach to simulate complex systems.
arXiv:2608. 13681v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Translating C code into safe, idiomatic Rust is a longstanding software-engineering goal because it can eliminate entire classes of memory-safety vulnerabilities while preserving the functional behavior of legacy systems.
arXiv:2608. 14122v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Production scheduling in complex manufacturing environments is challenging when sequence-dependent setup times, stochastic disturbances, and due-date constraints must be addressed simultaneously.
arXiv:2608. 13625v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Signal temporal logic (STL) provides a formal language for specifying real-time properties of real-valued observations, along with a quantitative robustness score for monitoring satisfaction.
arXiv:2608. 14498v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Vision-language models (VLMs) enable embodied agents to reason and act from visual observations and language instructions.
arXiv:2608. 13810v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We examine the interplay between ordinal, preference-based solution concepts in games and the long-run behavior of game dynamics, asking in particular to what extent the combinatorial data of a game -- its preference graph -- determine the outcomes of no-regret learning dynamics -- such as follow-the-regularized-leader (FTRL).
arXiv:2608. 14068v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Conversational recommendation for e-commerce is increasingly mediated by large language models (LLMs), yet many real-world deployments operate under a stricter requirement: recommendations must be drawn only from a merchant's fixed catalog, without web search or unsupported product claims.
arXiv:2608. 13767v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Analog IC layout design remains a labor-intensive iterative process dominated by simulation-driven refinement.
arXiv:2608. 13566v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Post-training papers, model cards, and blog posts often treat scores on a small set of coding benchmarks (e.
arXiv:2608. 13662v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Coding agents have become the primary means of generating new code in many software projects, and the resulting velocity of changes makes keeping track of the reasons behind those changes challenging.
