Large Multimodal Agents for Intelligent Transportation Systems: Architectures, Evidence, and Deployment Challenges

arXiv:2608. 08184v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large multimodal agents (LMAs) are increasingly proposed for intelligent transportation systems (ITS), but existing studies often conflate multimodality, agency, empirical performance, and deployment readiness.

FailForge: Distilling Procedural Competence from Persistent Failures into Code Agents

arXiv:2608. 08570v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Rejection sampling fine-tuning (RFT) is widely used to train code agents by generating trajectories on verifiable software engineering tasks, retaining those that pass the tests, and fine-tuning on the successful rollouts.

TempoBench: Reasoning Execution Without Causal Attribution Is Just Simulation

arXiv:2510. 27544v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Current training paradigms, optimized for long-horizon reasoning trace execution, have made Large Language Models (LLMs) excel at pattern matching and forward simulation of reasoning, but underperform at counterfactual causal understanding and reasoning.

NormAct: Benchmarking Embodied Agents' Proactive Compliance with Unspoken Social Norms

arXiv:2606. 27826v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Embodied agents driven by multimodal large language models (MLLMs) can often complete everyday tasks from visual observations, but goal achievement does not establish whether they proactively respect unstated social norms.
