When Privileged Guidance Misaligns: State-Matched Routing and Contextualized Self-Distillation for Multi-Turn Agents

arXiv:2608. 05219v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Privileged on-policy distillation provides dense supervision for multi-turn agents by allowing a synchronized teacher to re-score the student's response at every turn with access to training-only references, such as successful trajectories.

DoctorAgents: an agentic framework to iteratively refine AutoML pipeline for small clinical temporal data

arXiv:2608. 05375v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Clinical machine learning (ML) has the potential to support high-stakes medical decision-making, but reliable deployment is often constrained by scarce, heterogeneous, and temporal complexity.

iARCS: Iterative Agentic RL for Controllable 3D Scene Generation

arXiv:2608. 06161v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Synthetic 3D scene generation is increasingly used as a data source for computer vision and embodied AI, but existing generators often optimize perceptual realism without reliably satisfying task-critical functional constraints.

WorldClaw: Agentic 3D Open-World Generation at Scale

arXiv:2608. 05248v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Generating large-scale, freely explorable 3D worlds from open-ended text remains challenging because a system must jointly maintain global spatial coherence, rich local content, and explicit assets suitable for downstream editing and reuse.

EvoHarness-RL: Learning Self-Evolving Runtime Harness for Long-Horizon LLM Agents

arXiv:2608. 05446v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Long-horizon LLM agents increasingly rely on external execution support to maintain state, track progress, invoke tools, verify outcomes, and reuse experience across interactions.

Predicting Task Difficulty Without Rollouts

arXiv:2608. 05797v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Task difficulty dictates an agent's likelihood of success, and estimating it without rollouts means forecasting this directly from a task description before executing costly simulations in stateful environments.
