LLM-based agents excel at software engineering tasks where an existing codebase provides context, but constructing a program from scratch remains fundamentally harder. Recent benchmarks such as ProgramBench quantify this gap: given only natural-language documentation and an execute-only binary as a behavioral oracle, even frontier models solve fewer than 1% of instances.
Large language model (LLM) agents are increasingly expected to assist users in completing tasks. However, existing benchmarks provide limited support for evaluating whether agents can carry out office-suite workflows at a reasonable cost.
As Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) are increasingly deployed in decision-critical pipelines such as robotics, embodied AI, and safety monitoring, the opacity of their spatial judgments limits operator trust and auditability. MLLMs demonstrate strong reasoning but often struggle with fine-grained spatial understanding and object hallucination.
Scientific images are the core elements of presenting experimental conclusions, elaborating system architecture, and supporting comparative arguments in scientific papers. However, existing image quality assessment (IQA) methods are predominantly designed for natural photographs or AI-generated content, which cannot be directly applied to scientific papers.
Energy-Based Models (EBMs) provide an interpretable framework for generative modeling of scientific data, but poor Markov Chain Monte Carlo mixing often limits their reliability. We introduce a training algorithm based on Parallel Trajectory Tempering (PTT), which exploits the continuity of the optimization path to maintain equilibrium sampling throughout learning.
How two API settings improved GPT-5. 6 performance on ARC-AGI-3, boosting scores and efficiency by retaining reasoning and enabling compaction.
We introduce CreditCardQA, the first financial literacy benchmark for numerical reasoning derived from real credit card agreements. The dataset contains 1,800 questions, including first-person variants that reflect how consumers naturally ask about fees, interest, and payments.
Recent work on LeWorldModel (LeWM) has shown that the Sketched Isotropic Gaussian Regularizer (SIGReg) enables stable end-to-end world-model learning from pixels by regularizing the latent marginal distribution toward an isotropic Gaussian, thereby preventing representation collapse. While effective and elegant in single-task settings, this recipe does not extend reliably to multi-task training, leading to substantially worse downstream behavior-cloning performance.
Open-vocabulary Earth observation (EO) aims to localize geospatial concepts specified in natural language rather than a fixed label set. Existing benchmarks, however, usually cover narrow category vocabularies or limited query forms.
Reconstructing articulated objects with multiple movable parts is essential for understanding object structure and enabling physical interaction. However, this reconstruction task poses significant challenges due to the entanglement of geometry, appearance, and motion parameters during optimization.
As large language models (LLMs) are deployed in high-stakes domains, adversaries may poison training data to implant backdoors: hidden triggers that covertly manipulate model behavior at inference time. We ask whether a defender can recover such a trigger under realistic affordances, namely white-box access to the weights and knowledge of the behavior of concern, but no training data, no trusted reference model, no knowledge of the trigger, and no certainty that the model is poisoned.
Large language models increasingly support scientific and algorithmic discovery through inference-time search over evaluated candidates. Existing adaptive discovery controllers assign credit based only on score progress, even though prompt length, retries, and guidance calls cause search actions to incur different token costs.
Breast DCE-MRI AI is increasingly being explored for breast-level classification of no-lesion, benign, and malignant findings, beyond conventional lesion-centered diagnosis. Within this broader diagnostic scope, however, patient-specific background variability remains a major source of imaging confounding across classification tasks.
Code search in large-scale ecosystems is often hindered by the lexical gap between user queries and implementation details, alongside the trade-off between the low latency of traditional Information Retrieval (IR) and the precision of Deep Learning (DL). We present MediaWiki Code2Code Search, a neural retrieval system for semantic code-to-code discovery.
Dataset distillation compresses large-scale datasets into compact synthetic sets while preserving their training utility, enabling efficient 3D point cloud training. Current point cloud dataset distillation methods only tackle geometric and representation challenges while ignoring the distributional imbalance prevalent in point cloud datasets where both training and test splits follow long-tailed class distributions.
The rapid growth of AI workloads is turning data centers into large-scale, volatile, yet spatiotemporally flexible grid loads, creating an urgent need for coordinated electricity-computing scheduling. Under stringent grid constraints, schedules from general-purpose large language models (LLMs) are often infeasible, causing line-flow violations and unserved load.
Enabling large language model (LLM) agents to accumulate and reuse experience from past interactions remains a central challenge in real-world applications. A promising solution is to treat skills as trainable states and optimize them in the same way as model parameters in neural network training.
Figure 1: CUDA-to-MLX optimization translation map. CUDA optimization knowledge can be translated into architecture-native MLX strategies rather than copied instruction-for-instruction.
Human Activity Recognition (HAR) from wearable sensors supports applications in healthcare, rehabilitation, fitness tracking, and smart environments. Yet, existing deep learning approaches require dataset-specific training, large labeled corpora, and repeated adaptation to new sensor settings or activity taxonomies.
Speculative Decoding (SD) accelerates large language model inference by allowing a lightweight draft model to propose tokens that are subsequently verified in parallel by a larger target model. Recent approaches introduce lossy verification schemes to further improve efficiency by relaxing strict distributional matching.
