Distribution-Calibrated Inference Time Compute for Thinking LLM-as-a-Judge

arXiv:2512. 03019v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Thinking Large Language Models (LLMs) used as judges for pairwise preferences remain noisy at the single-sample level, and common aggregation rules (majority vote, soft self-consistency, or instruction-based self-aggregation) are inconsistent when ties are allowed.

QUBRIC: Co-Designing Queries and Rubrics for RL Beyond Verifiable Rewards

arXiv:2606. 03968v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Rubric-based RL is a promising route for extending reinforcement learning beyond verifiable rewards, yet existing methods optimize rubrics while treating the query distribution as fixed.

A formal definition and meta-model for a machine theory of mind

arXiv:2606. 03471v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: This paper proposes, for the first time, a rigorous formal definition of the concept of Machine Theory of Mind, based on principles supported by evidence from cognitive psychology, neuroscience and artificial intelligence, and uses the above as a lens to examine state-of-the-art and current efforts in the field, driving a potential agenda for further research there able to "crack" the problem.
