We study what happens when a single general-purpose large language model acts as the sole researcher on a long-horizon neural architecture design problem. The agent receives a scientific question, an initial hypothesis and motivation, a compute budget, and research affordances (source and experiment management, experiment tracking, literature access, and persistent memory), then autonomously proposes, implements, evaluates, and records experiments over an extended period.
Accurate crack assessment in electroluminescence (EL) images is important for photovoltaic (PV) reliability analysis, yet existing segmentation methods often fail to capture the thin, elongated, and structurally constrained nature of crack defects. This paper proposes a Solar Topology Crack Network (STC-Net) that incorporates edge priors, spectral priors, and a boundary-topology refinement module to improve crack continuity and boundary preservation.

Fruit ripeness prediction (FRP) is a classification-based agricultural computer vision task that has attracted much attention, thanks to its wide-ranging advantages in agriculture field for both pre-harvest and post-harvest management. Accurate and timely FRP can be achieved using machine/deep learning-based hyperspectral image classification techniques.
Whole slide image (WSI) classification is an evidence-driven task, where diagnostic cues are often sparse, spatially organized, and class-dependent. Existing MIL and vision-language methods aggregate a large pool of patch features into a single global slide representation.
