TREK: Distill to Explore, Reinforce to Refine

arXiv:2607. 05339v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Group Relative Policy Optimization (GRPO) is effective when the current policy already samples useful reasoning trajectories, but it stalls on hard prompts whose correct solution modes lie outside the student's on-policy support.

Relational Multi-Agent Reinforcement Learning for Dynamic Pricing in High-Speed Railway Markets

arXiv:2607. 05179v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: In liberalised railway systems, operators must set prices dynamically in an environment with partial observability, as they retain private information about their objectives and performance, where regulatory constraints prohibit communication or direct information exchange between competitors to prevent explicit collusion.

Agentic IoT: Architectures, Applications, and Challenges Toward the Internet of Agents

arXiv:2607. 04219v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The integration of AI into Internet of Things (AIoT) systems has gradually transformed them from passive data collection infrastructures into intelligent systems capable of anomaly detection, predictive maintenance, classification, forecasting, and optimization.

AdaptiveSD A Stability-Aware, Runtime-Adaptive Speculative Decoding Framework with Multi-Policy Orchestration for CPU-Constrained LLM Inference

arXiv:2607. 03876v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: With the rise of small quantized GGUF-based language models and their increasing use for on-device inference tasks, we have seen the growing need for an approach capable of reliably delivering these models at scale even under severe memory bandwidth constraints such as those imposed by pure CPU implementations.

Social Networks of LLM Agents

arXiv:2607. 03695v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language model (LLM) agents are increasingly deployed in interacting populations, raising the question of what such populations come to believe collectively.

HAS-Bench: Evaluating LLM-Based Human-Agent Systems under Configurable Human Participation

arXiv:2607. 04329v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language models increasingly operate in settings where humans are active collaborators rather than passive task providers.

NRT-Bench: Benchmarking Multi-Turn Red-Teaming of LLM Operator Agents in Safety-Critical Control Rooms

arXiv:2606. 20408v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Large language model (LLM) agents are increasingly proposed as supervisory components for safety-critical systems, yet their robustness under sustained, adaptive adversarial pressure remains poorly characterized.
