Does Capability Transfer to Subjective Behavior -- and Would Our Instruments Tell Us? A Self-Evolving, Trust-by-Construction Evaluation Paradigm

arXiv:2605. 27914v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Benchmarking is mature where answers are verifiable -- math, code, reasoning -- but the fastest-growing uses of LLMs are subjective and human-facing: companionship, emotional support, counseling.

Less Context, Better Agents: Efficient Context Engineering for Long-Horizon Tool-Using LLM Agents

arXiv:2606. 10209v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language models deployed as autonomous agents for enterprise workflows face a key challenge: verbose tool responses from enterprise systems can cause context overflow, stale-state errors, and high inference cost.

SinkRec: Mitigating Semantic State Sink in Long Sequence Recommendation with Memory-Conditioned Gated Delta Networks

arXiv:2606. 09888v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Linear attention provides an efficient backbone for long-sequence recommendation by avoiding the quadratic cost of standard Transformers, but its compressed recurrent state can be dominated by repetitive behavior patterns.

Dep-LLM: Training-Free Depression Diagnosis via Evidence-Guided Structured Multi-factor with Reliable LLM Reasoning

arXiv:2606. 10796v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Automatic Depression Detection (ADD) from clinical interviews is a pivotal task in computational mental health, yet it remains challenging due to two critical obstacles: 1) difficulty in modeling complex but sparsely distributed depression clues within lengthy, multi-topic clinical interviews, leading to superficial and unreliable reasoning; 2) scarcity of labeled data due to clinical privacy, together with high cost of training and fine-tuning, limiting the deployment of supervised ADD systems.
