arXiv:2606. 07629v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Current approaches to aligning large language models (LLMs) aggregate diverse human preferences into a single reward signal, effectively optimizing for a hypothetical ``average user'' who represents no real person particularly well.

arXiv:2606. 09080v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Pruning has emerged as a dominant paradigm for accelerating large language model (LLM) inference, spanning a broad spectrum of methods that remove computation across tokens, layers, heads, dimensions, and attention patterns.

arXiv:2606. 08790v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Autonomous agents negotiate, purchase, deploy code, and move funds, but no neutral mechanism determines whether they met their delegated obligation, who is responsible when they did not, or which settlement action follows.

arXiv:2606. 08573v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Speech emotion recognition (SER) is commonly formulated as utterance-level classification, although conversational emotion depends on a speaker's usual vocal range and the emotional context established by previous utterances.

arXiv:2606. 08831v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) increasingly perform multi-step reasoning, where intermediate claims form implicit directed acyclic graphs whose node correctness is structurally conditioned on their ancestors.

arXiv:2606. 07688v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Generative recommendation formulates next-item prediction as autoregressive generation over semantic ID (SID) sequences derived from users' historical interactions, making modern recommender systems structurally similar to large language models (LLMs).

arXiv:2511. 19829v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Prompt optimization has become a central mechanism for eliciting strong performance from LLMs, and recent work has made substantial progress by proposing diverse prompt evaluation metrics and optimization strategies.

arXiv:2606. 08571v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large language models frequently fail in a characteristic way: rather than acknowledging ignorance, they produce fluent but incorrect answers to questions that lie beyond their knowledge boundaries.

arXiv:2510. 18428v4 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Optimization modeling underlies critical decision-making across industries, yet remains difficult to automate: natural-language problem descriptions must be translated into precise mathematical formulations and executable solver code.

arXiv:2606. 08676v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: AI coding assistants have significantly improved developer productivity by automatically suggesting code that aligns with user intent, and many of these tools are now integrated directly into Integrated Development Environments (IDEs).

arXiv:2606. 09563v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: As LLMs are deployed as agents, reliable monitoring requires knowing not only what they output, but which instructions are steering their behavior.

arXiv:2606. 08529v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Published agent capability scores conflate what a model can do with what its scaffold lets it do, and the magnitude of this elicitation gap is not well characterized under controlled conditions.
