An AI Scientist that Doesn't Drift: Taste, Structure, and Falsifiable Findings in a Quadruped Navigation Research Loop

arXiv:2608. 07542v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Autonomous research loops driven by large language models can run machine-learning experiments at scale but tend to drift toward local refinements of whichever metric they optimise rather than testing the hypotheses that motivate the experiments.

An Agentic AI Framework Overcomes Fundamental Limitations of Large Language Models for Glaucoma Detection from Fundus Photography

arXiv:2608. 07651v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) show promise in medical image interpretation but suffer from hallucination, limited accuracy, and run-to-run inconsistency.

H2: A Dual Hybrid Semantic Data Lake Architecture for Medical Data Harmonization with Human-In-the-Loop verified, LLM Driven Metadata Annotation System

arXiv:2608. 08056v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Medical data, by its nature, exhibit a high degree of heterogeneity on multiple levels ranging from (a) different modalities like images, text and time series, (b) diverse tabular schemata introduced by institutions and (c) completely unstructured textual information data provided by healthcare professionals.

Yesterday's Shield, Today's Spear: A Self-Evolving Safety Guardrail in Production

arXiv:2608. 08471v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Deployed LLM safety guardrails are predominantly static: trained once and frozen at release, while new jailbreak techniques and previously un-addressed harmful categories emerge within days, leaving the defense perpetually a step behind.

Time Present and Time Past: Benchmarking Large Language Models on Temporally Evolving Document Understanding

arXiv:2608. 08512v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Evolving documents, such as laws, tax codes, and software documentation, are amended, replaced, and sometimes reverted over time, so a question has different correct answers at different dates.

Reproducing and Stress-Testing Two Approaches to LLM Reasoning Reliability: Test-Time Probability Aggregation and Logic-Representation Editing

arXiv:2608. 08514v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We independently reproduce two recent methods for making large language model (LLM) reasoning more reliable, and stress-test them across domains and models (RPC across four new task domains with Qwen3-8B, LCF across four 7-8B models).
