AgilePE: Autonomous UAV Pursuit-Evasion via Self-Play Reinforcement Learning

arXiv:2608. 14135v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Autonomous pursuit-evasion is a fundamental challenge for Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs), requiring rapid decision-making under tightly coupled dynamics and continuously changing opponent behaviors.

MACS: A Hybrid Multi-Agent Framework for Reliable Conversational E-Commerce Recommendation

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.

A Graph-Based Reinforcement Learning Framework for Structured Drift Diagnosis and Recovery in Autonomous LLM Agents

arXiv:2608. 14109v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Autonomous LLM agents are increasingly deployed in complex real-world workflows, yet they remain vulnerable to runtime behavioral drift, a silent deviation from the original task that can lead to irreversible side effects on external systems.

Reinforcement Learning-Based Production Scheduling in an Industry-Based Coating Scenario Using the Digital Model Playground

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.

Never the Number: Structural Abstention for AI Systems Whose Answers Are Consumed as Fact

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.
