Schema-Aware Localisation (SAL): Live Schema Grounding and Hallucination Validation for Oracle NL2SQL

arXiv:2607. 22572v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language models can generate fluent SQL from natural language, but on real enterprise Oracle databases they frequently fail at execution time: columns and aliases are hallucinated and dialect-specific syntax is missed, leading to ORA-00904 invalid-identifier errors.

SCAIR: Schema-Conditioned Agentic Iterative Reasoning for Enterprise Knowledge Graphs

arXiv:2607. 22571v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Knowledge Graph-based Retrieval-Augmented Generation (KG-RAG) enables natural language interaction with structured enterprise knowledge, yet existing agentic approaches that perform well on public benchmarks often fail to generalize to real-world enterprise Knowledge Graphs (KGs), which are dense, schema-driven, and operationally constrained.

SpecBox: Speculative Sandbox Scheduling for Efficient LLM Agent Serving

arXiv:2607. 23933v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: As LLM agents increasingly rely on the Model Context Protocol (MCP) to invoke isolated external sandboxes, disaggregated sandbox deployment introduces a fundamental tension between resource utilization and interactive tail latency.

QFoldAgent: An Autonomous Quantum Optimization Multi-Agent System for Protein Structure Prediction

arXiv:2607. 22549v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Hybrid quantum-classical protein structure prediction depends strongly on Hamiltonian penalty weights, yet existing lattice-based workflows typically fix these coefficients by hand and evaluate only very short fragments in simulation.

FilmBench: A Film-Grade Benchmark for Cinematic Video Generation

arXiv:2607. 24241v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Progress in video generation keeps narrowing the visual gap between AI-generated and professionally produced footage, yet most benchmarks still draw prompts from web sources or LLM templates and score them with untrained, generic multimodal models.

Harnessing X-ray Absorption Spectroscopy Data through Multimodal Mining of Battery Literature

arXiv:2607. 23886v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) is central to understanding the local electronic and atomic structure of materials, yet most published spectra remain inaccessible to data-driven analysis because they are embedded in figures and described through fragmented textual context in the literature.

Agent-UCT: Upper Confidence Bounds Applied to Trees for Agentic Workflow Optimization with Cost-Awareness

arXiv:2607. 24162v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Optimizing agentic workflows, such as retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) pipelines, requires navigating a combinatorial space of discrete component choices under tight evaluation budgets.
