Leaderboards, eval harnesses and ablations — the contested business of deciding which model is actually better.
arXiv:2606. 01437v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Deep Neural Networks (DNNs) are highly susceptible to adversarial perturbations, leading to extensive research on robustness for safety-critical applications.
arXiv:2606. 01382v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Preference alignment is central to improving large language models, but standard reward-based formulations can be restrictive when human preferences are cyclic, non-transitive, or otherwise not representable by a scalar reward.
arXiv:2606. 01723v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Real-world regression often exhibits shortcuts: attributes that are spuriously correlated with continuous targets in training, yet unreliable under deployment shifts; regressing targets using such shortcuts may fail catastrophically at test time.
arXiv:2606. 01666v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: The scaling of Large Language Models (LLMs) has driven significant performance gains but created substantial challenges in inference efficiency.
arXiv:2606. 02092v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Semantic segmentation of remote sensing imagery requires models that capture both global context and local detail under tight computational budgets.
arXiv:2603. 14465v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: While Large Language Models (LLMs) have evolved into tool-using agents, they remain brittle in long-horizon interactions.
arXiv:2604. 06995v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Existing Graphical User Interface (GUI) reasoning tasks remain challenging, particularly in UI understanding.
arXiv:2602. 16953v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Execution-aware LLM agents offer a promising paradigm for learning from tool feedback, but such feedback can be expensive and slow to obtain, making online reinforcement learning (RL) less practical in certain scenarios.
arXiv:2510. 09608v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Vision-language models (VLMs) could power real-time assistants and autonomous agents, but they face a critical challenge: understanding near-infinite video streams without escalating latency and memory usage.
arXiv:2510. 10541v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Current benchmarks are inadequate for evaluating progress in reinforcement learning (RL) for large language models (LLMs).
arXiv:2510. 07650v4 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: While most reinforcement learning methods today flatten the distribution of future returns to a single scalar value, distributional RL methods exploit the return distribution to provide stronger learning signals and to enable applications in exploration and safe RL.
arXiv:2510. 03259v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Recent research on reasoning models explores the meta-awareness of language models, including their ability to determine optimal thinking duration, recognize knowledge boundaries, and structure concept-level thinking.
arXiv:2605. 16451v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Macro placement is a pivotal stage in VLSI physical design, fundamentally determining the overall chip performance.
arXiv:2605. 07061v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Joint audio-video generation models are rapidly approaching professional production quality, raising a central question: do they understand audio-visual physics, or merely generate plausible sounds and frames that violate real-world consistency?
arXiv:2605. 29539v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Vision-language foundation models have shown promising zero-shot generalization for Cross-Domain Few-Shot Object Detection (CD-FSOD).
arXiv:2605. 29463v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Reflexion-style agents rely on self-generated reflections as memory, implicitly assuming that agents can accurately diagnose their own failures.
arXiv:2606. 00514v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Generative modeling and self-supervised representation learning (SSL) optimize structurally different objectives: generative training rewards distributional fidelity, while SSL rewards semantic coherence.
arXiv:2606. 01595v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Bayesian inference provides a principled framework for modeling epistemic uncertainty in neural networks by treating predictions as distributions rather than deterministic values.
arXiv:2605. 12768v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Open time-series forecasting (TSF) benchmarks cover retail, energy, weather, and traffic, but supply-chain logistics remains underserved.
arXiv:2606. 01665v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We quantify the energy floor -- the minimum achievable cost given action space constraints -- for Soft Actor-Critic (SAC) HVAC control on the sbsim calibrated building simulator.
