Leaderboards, eval harnesses and ablations — the contested business of deciding which model is actually better.
arXiv:2607. 02592v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: On-policy distillation (OPD) has recently emerged as an effective post-training paradigm by providing supervision on student-generated trajectories.
arXiv:2607. 04919v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Deploying a time series foundation model requires GPU infrastructure, engineering overhead, and carries no guarantee of improvement over XGBoost.
arXiv:2607. 03836v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Despite remarkable progress in machine translation, Vision Language Models (VLMs) struggle on historical manuscripts, a domain that stresses core Natural Language Processing (NLP) capabilities: low-resource transliteration, archaic vocabulary, and noisy input signals.
arXiv:2607. 03801v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We define Tiny Language Models (TLMs) as models below roughly 3B parameters that fit on mainstream consumer devices.
Recent advancements in Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) have evolved from static perception to interleaved visual-language reasoning, often referred to as ``thinking with images''. A basic operation in this reasoning process is to zoom in on regions of interest (often represented with bounding boxes) to acquire finer visual details.
Large language model (LLM) agents are increasingly evaluated on their ability to use tools, plan multi-step tasks, coordinate with other agents, and operate over extended horizons. Reported benchmark gains often obscure recurring failure modes documented across otherwise unrelated evaluation efforts.
Computer-aided design (CAD) for industrial components requires long-horizon procedural modeling, robust feature dependencies, editable parametric geometry, and production-grade B-Rep execution. Existing text-to-CAD methods have made promising progress in generating CAD programs from natural-language descriptions, but they still struggle when user prompts are ambiguous, underspecified, or only describe high-level design intent.
Uncertainty estimation is essential not only for the trustworthy deployment of large language models (LLMs) but also as a foundation for self-refinement in LLM generation. However, existing approaches operate at suboptimal granularities: token-level scores lack semantic coherence, while sequence-level scores fail to localize errors.
Scaling pre-training, post-training, and test-time compute have become the central paradigms for improving the capabilities of LLMs. In this work, we identify verification, the ability to determine the correctness of a solution, as a new scaling axis.
Predicting object dynamics (i. e.
Camera intrinsics are vital for recovering 3D structure from 2D video. However, most 3D algorithms assume fixed intrinsics throughout a video, an assumption that often fails for real-world in-the-wild videos.
Streaming speech-to-speech language models aim to answer spoken queries directly with synthetic speech. However, standard speech and text benchmarks do not capture whether these systems behave naturally in conversations, where timing, turn-taking, prosody, interpersonal stance, language and dialect consistency, and relationship-aware appropriateness jointly shape perceived quality.
Modern autoregressive ASR systems can emit timestamps as decoded tokens, enabling timestamped transcription without frame-level aligners or inference-time post-processing. We show that these generated timestamps can drift across long non-speech spans: the transcript may remain plausible, but the decoded time axis drifts away from the audio.
Male infertility contributes substantially to the global infertility burden, and sperm analysis remains central to diagnosis, treatment planning, and assisted reproductive technology. Conventional semen evaluation, however, is labor-intensive, operator-dependent, and limited by inter- and intra-observer variability, motivating the development of objective and reproducible computational approaches.
Existing video benchmarks evaluate action recognition on consumer videos, egocentric recordings, or simulated industrial environments. They do not test vision-language models under the visual and procedural conditions of real industrial CCTV, where workers appear as distant figures amid dust, steam, low light, glare, occlusion, and overlapping activities.
Large-scale Vision-Language Models like CLIP have demonstrated impressive open-set localization capabilities at the image level. However, adapting this capability to pixel-level dense prediction poses challenges due to global feature biases.
Personalized incentive allocation is vital for e-commerce, where uplift modeling is the standard for estimating Individual Treatment Effects (ITE). However, traditional models often fail in complex multi-seller environments with violations of the Stable Unit Treatment Value Assumption (SUTVA).
Self-supervised learning (SSL) is designed to learn generic, transferable representations rather than representations optimized for a single task. Most geospatial benchmarks evaluate representations solely through downstream tasks, providing limited insight into the information encoded within the representation itself.
Agent self-evolution in long-horizon LLM systems is largely procedural: useful experience is not merely stored information, but reusable procedures for searching, debugging, and verification. Yet current evaluations do not isolate this form of transfer.
Audio intelligence involves understanding, reasoning about, and generating both audio and speech. In this work, we introduce Nemotron-Labs-Audex-30B-A3B (Audex), a unified audio-text LLM built on Nemotron-Cascade-2-30B-A3B, a strong text-only MoE LLM.
