Leaderboards, eval harnesses and ablations — the contested business of deciding which model is actually better.
arXiv:2608. 16196v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Personalized game generation requires inferring a player's abilities and behavioral style from how they play.
arXiv:2608. 16381v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Agentic systems often organize execution and state around a single conversation, model invocation, or agent instance, even when real work spans many calls and stages.
arXiv:2608. 16402v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language model-based agentic frameworks primarily optimize capability: whether an agent can reason, retrieve information, call tools, delegate work, and complete a goal.
arXiv:2608. 16435v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: In collection operations, accumulating payload progressively slows the vehicle, imposing a cumulative penalty on routing efficiency.
arXiv:2608. 16628v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Modern Multimodal Retrieval-Augmented Generation (M-RAG) systems are fundamentally limited by the binary connectivity paradigm of traditional simple graphs, which fails to capture the intricate, high-order correlations among heterogeneous entities, such as the N-ary relationships between a visual chart, its scattered textual descriptions, and underlying numerical data.
arXiv:2608. 16645v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Can a language model recover the true research idea of a published paper when given only that paper's pre-publication bibliography?
arXiv:2608. 16697v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Vision-Language-Action models (VLAs) integrate visual perception, language instruction, and action generation into end-to-end policies across heterogeneous architectures.
arXiv:2608. 16831v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Generative pretraining established reusable task representations; later work on language-based task conditioning and in-context learning showed that a fixed model could adapt its behavior from instructions and demonstrations.
arXiv:2608. 16852v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Regulatory compliance monitoring in deployed language models is increasingly implemented as a legal and audit control, checking model outputs against written rules spanning data protection, healthcare, financial regulation, and platform policy.
arXiv:2607. 04784v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Defining the reasoning boundaries and ensuring the reliability of Large Reasoning Models (LRMs) remains a critical challenge.
arXiv:2608. 14606v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) are increasingly used as synthetic survey respondents, but existing evaluations ask whether answers look plausible at the individual level.
arXiv:2608. 14636v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Fractional optimization methods and fractal activation functions are two independent directions for improving neural network training.
arXiv:2608. 14647v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Dirty-history rollouts make multi-turn on-policy self-distillation (OPSD) brittle: once a student emits an erroneous intermediate reply, later turns are conditioned on that reply, and uniform distillation can spend loss on tokens that carry little corrective signal.
arXiv:2608. 14710v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Predicting spatial gene expression from hematoxylin and eosin (H\&E)-stained images offers a cost-effective alternative to spatial transcriptomics (ST).
arXiv:2608. 14763v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Assessment of ventriculomegaly (VM) on fetal brain ultrasound relies primarily on measuring lateral ventricular atrial width on standard planes, which is operator-dependent and may not fully reflect the overall ventricular enlargement.
arXiv:2608. 15006v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Although visual reasoning is crucial for solving complex geometry tasks, existing vision-language models rely heavily on text-only reasoning.
arXiv:2608. 15024v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Current Vision-based SLAM systems fail catastrophically when motion blur corrupts the visual input, as they attempt the ill-posed inverse problem of recovering sharp content from degraded observations.
arXiv:2608. 15032v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Converting a set of architectural blueprints into a complete material quantity takeoff requires visual perception across drawing sheets, dimensional and multi-hop reasoning, and grounding in construction conventions that the drawings never state.
arXiv:2608. 15092v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: In this work, we introduce WeSCE, a benchmark for quantifying security drift in code editing under weak-security constraints, where tasks specify only functional objectives without explicit security requirements.
arXiv:2608. 15127v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Agentic applications are shifting AI serving from isolated model inference to long-running workloads in which LLMs coordinate tools, environments, and persistent state.
