FirstResearch: Auditable Question Formation for LLM Scientific Discovery Agents

arXiv:2607. 05682v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: LLM systems for scientific discovery increasingly assist with ideation, literature synthesis, experiment planning, and report generation, but the first research question they propose can remain difficult to audit: it may sound plausible without exposing the mechanism, falsifier, or assumption that a scientist should inspect.

Narrative World Model: Narratology-Grounded Writer Memory for Long-Form Fiction

arXiv:2607. 05577v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Long-form fiction writers need memory that answers multi-hop questions about evolving story state: who knows a secret and when they learned it, whether an event preceded the narration that revealed it, whether a setup paid off, and how a relationship shifted.

Dynamic Object Detection and Tracking in Construction: A Fisheye Camera and LiDAR Sensor Fusion Model

Robust dynamic object detection and tracking are essential for enabling robots to operate safely and effectively alongside humans in complex environments such as construction sites. While LiDAR-based SLAM and occupancy grid methods offer viable solutions for detecting and tracking motion, many state-of-the-art 3D vision approaches rely heavily on pre-trained neural networks and require additional post-processing to identify moving objects.

Retrieving and Refining Winning Noise Tickets for Diffusion-Based Motion Generation

Diffusion-based text-to-motion models synthesize realistic human motions but often exhibit semantic drift from the input text. Motion is inherently temporal, especially in compositional and long-duration sequences that require semantic consistency across multiple action segments and smooth kinematic transitions throughout the trajectory.

Efficient Bayesian Deep Ensembles via Analytic Predictive Inference

We introduce an efficient Bayesian deep ensemble method for predictive regression designed to enhance interpretability while maintaining competitive predictive performance and computational efficiency. Our method combines the statistical rigor of Bayesian inference with the scalability of deep ensembles, providing calibrated uncertainty estimates that enable its use not only for standalone prediction but also as a component within broader learning systems.
