AttackPathGNN: Cross-function vulnerability detection in smart contracts using state interference graphs and conjunction pooling

arXiv:2606. 05986v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Existing learning-based detectors for Solidity smart-contracts reduce vulnerability detection to syntactic pattern matching within single functions, yet many of the most consequential exploits (The DAO, Cream Finance) exist not in any individual function but in the relationship between functions and in the combination of conditions that made the attack feasible.

DisasterBench: A Multimodal Benchmark for UAV-Based Disaster Response in Complex Environments

arXiv:2606. 06217v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: When a disaster unfolds, responders must answer not only what is happening, but also why it is happening, what will happen next, and what to do now, often from noisy low-altitude UAV views and under tight on-site compute constraints.

Active Video Perception: Iterative Evidence Seeking for Agentic Long Video Understanding

arXiv:2512. 05774v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Long video understanding (LVU) is challenging because answering real-world queries often depends on sparse, temporally dispersed cues buried in hours of mostly redundant and irrelevant content.

MLEvolve: A Self-Evolving Framework for Automated Machine Learning Algorithm Discovery

arXiv:2606. 06473v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language model (LLM) agents are increasingly applied to long-horizon tasks such as scientific discovery and machine learning engineering (MLE), where sustained self-evolution becomes a key capability.

TAPO: Tool-Aware Policy Optimization via Credit Transfer for Multimodal Search Agents

arXiv:2606. 05784v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We identify and formally characterize credit misassignment as a systematic failure mode of GRPO in tool-augmented multimodal search agents: its uniform broadcast of trajectory-level advantages to all tokens causes valuable tool-use steps in failing trajectories to be penalized no differently from valueless ones.
