Model releases, architecture work and prompting research on large language models — from frontier-lab announcements to the arXiv papers behind them.
arXiv:2601. 22580v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: The success of Large Language Models (LLMs) hinges on the stable training of deep Transformer architectures.
arXiv:2606. 05972v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Causal graphs provide a high-level language for making mechanisms transparent.
arXiv:2606. 06447v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large language models often improve reasoning by generating explicit chain-of-thought (CoT), demonstrating the importance of intermediate computation.
arXiv:2606. 06098v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Foundational Large Language Models (LLMs) demonstrate proficiency on a wide range of general tasks, and achieve remarkable results on various specialized tasks via domain-expert LLMs.
arXiv:2606. 05693v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) have shown promise for molecular property prediction, but their ability to reason over chemical structures remains limited, as molecular representations such as SMILES differ substantially from the natural language on which LLMs are primarily trained.
arXiv:2605. 31278v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Reliable evaluation of agentic systems requires unbiased estimates with valid uncertainty, but standard practice navigates between costly human annotation and biased LLM-as-judge proxies.
arXiv:2606. 05474v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Protein binder design has largely optimized for affinity alone, leaving conformational selectivity unaddressed: for allosteric targets such as kinases, nuclear receptors, and GPCRs, a binder that engages both active and inactive states provides no functional specificity regardless of how tightly it binds.
arXiv:2606. 05758v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Many modern vision-language models (VLMs) build on autoregressive decoding of discrete tokens.
A long-standing finding in the causal learning literature is that adults struggle to identify conjunctive causal rules, where an effect requires the simultaneous presence of multiple causes, while performing better in disjunctive settings. However, most demonstrations of this ``conjunctive handicap'' rely on passive observation paradigms with limited evidence, where learners have no control over evidence generation.
Large language models often improve reasoning by generating explicit chain-of-thought (CoT), demonstrating the importance of intermediate computation. However, textual CoT forces this computation through a discrete, serial, and communication-oriented token stream: each reasoning step must be verbalized before the model can proceed, even when the underlying update is semantic, uncertain, or only partially formed.
Urban green-space extraction from ultra-high-resolution (UHR) imagery is commonly performed patch by patch, which limits semantic reuse among spatially separated but visually similar vegetation patterns. Directly injecting the Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) into red-green-blue (RGB) backbones can also blur the roles of visual appearance learning and physical vegetation confidence.
Modelling individual decision-making during infectious disease outbreaks is crucial for understanding behavioural dynamics and informing effective public health interventions. Prior work has shown that large language models can simulate realistic human behaviour by generating agent decisions based on demographic prompts and situational context.
In this study, UAV multispectral imagery is used to segment the severity of bacterial leaf blight (BLB) in rice using convolutional neural networks (CNNs) and transformer-based models. The evaluated architectures include U-Net with a ResNet- 101 encoder, U-Net++ with EfficientNet-B3 and EfficientNetB7, DeepLabV3+, and SegFormer, all trained under a common pipeline with three input configurations (multispectral only, multispectral+NDVI, and multispectral+NDRE).
Multi-turn Large Language Model (LLM) serving is critical for consistent user experiences, yet the linear growth of the Key-Value (KV) cache imposes significant pressure on GPU memory and bandwidth. Non-uniform KV compression effectively preserves more information by considering the individual importance of each KV cache.
Mortality forecasting plays an important role in actuarial and policy decision-making, but its implementation remains technically complex and inaccessible to non-expert users. This project proposes a reliable large language model (LLM)-integrated interface that improves usability while maintaining statistical power.
Language-model agents act through repeated cycles of observation, reasoning, and action selection, making safety monitoring depend on both internal model state and environment context. We study reward-hacking monitors in ReAct-style agents acting in Gameable ALFWorld and WebShop.
Physics-informed neural operators (PINOs) aim to learn solution operators for partial differential equations by using the governing physics as supervision, rather than relying solely on paired input-output simulation data. By incorporating physical constraints into the training objective, PINOs combine the cross-instance generalization of neural operators with the data efficiency of physics-informed learning.
We introduce pVR, a topological machine learning framework for alignment-free genomic sequence classification that combines $p$-adic numbers with topological data analysis. Each DNA sequence is encoded along two complementary axes: a $p$-adic distance on $k$-mer prefixes, which captures hierarchical positional structure, and a compositional $L_1$ distance on $k$-mer frequencies, which captures local sequence content.
Despite generating increasingly photorealistic images, text-to-image (T2I) models still exhibit localized, subtle, and structurally complex failures. Diagnosing these failures requires instance-level feedback that answers where a defect occurs, what type it is, why it is defective, and its importance to overall image quality.
Whether Large Language Models (LLMs) exhibit covert psychological manipulation in complex human-AI interactions has garnered increasing safety concerns. However, existing AI safety benchmarks remain largely restricted to explicit rule compliance and static prompts, failing to capture the dynamic and covert nature of manipulative strategies in multi-turn dialogues.
