Model releases, architecture work and prompting research on large language models — from frontier-lab announcements to the arXiv papers behind them.
arXiv:2512. 14751v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Finetuning pretrained large language models (LLMs) has become the standard paradigm for developing downstream applications.
arXiv:2603. 05997v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Irregularly sampled time series (ISTS) are widespread in real-world scenarios, exhibiting asynchronous observations on uneven time intervals across diverse variables.
arXiv:2604. 01280v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Knowledge-based Visual Question Answering (KB-VQA) requires Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) to identify and combine fine-grained visual cues with retrieved textual evidence.
arXiv:2604. 01170v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: While test-time scaling has enabled large language models to solve highly difficult tasks, state-of-the-art results come at exorbitant compute costs.
arXiv:2604. 17359v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Language models asked to simulate psychiatric patients produce cases that survive inspection one at a time and populations that match no real one.
arXiv:2608. 05234v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Building reliable applications that leverage large language models (LLMs) remains a significant challenge.
arXiv:2608. 05238v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Training multimodal models to align time series with language runs into a self-supervision trap.
arXiv:2608. 05475v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Task knowledge is commonly stored either as text in the prompt or as an update to model weights.
arXiv:2608. 05660v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: As language models are increasingly used for tasks that require verifiable reasoning, reliably distinguishing sound reasoning from flawed reasoning has become an important practical problem.
arXiv:2608. 05675v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Label-free reliability for vision-language models rests on invariance: perturb the input and a faithful reader's answer should not change.
arXiv:2608. 06031v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Dynamic graph prompting freezes a pre-trained temporal backbone and adapts it to label-scarce downstream tasks using lightweight prompts.
arXiv:2608. 06241v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Existing machine-learning weather forecasting models rely on predetermined and fixed autoregressive timesteps.
arXiv:2608. 06296v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: On-policy (Self-)Distillation (OPD / OPSD) has shown strong potential for post-training large language models (LLMs).
arXiv:2608. 05158v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: In biological evolution, unconstrained mutation can lead to catastrophic outcomes: organisms may evolve enhanced capabilities while losing essential functions for survival.
arXiv:2608. 05163v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: A common assumption holds that switching to a non-English language makes a multilingual RAG system easier to attack for personal information.
arXiv:2608. 05162v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Pooling is a consequential but under-examined design choice in decoder-only concept representation work: practitioners must collapse token-level hidden states into a passage-level vector, yet no shared protocol exists for comparing this choice across concepts, models, and tasks.
arXiv:2608. 05195v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: A natural language interface can be used to make cancer genomics databases easier to use, but even if a question is perfectly fluent, its scientific meaning can be ambiguous.
arXiv:2608. 05341v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Vision-Language Models (VLMs) for radiology report generation are typically trained on retrospective clinical reports, which suffer from omission noise: clinically present findings are left unreported due to the omission of subtle findings.
arXiv:2608. 05430v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: The remarkable instruction-following ability of modern LLMs has enabled their practical use as the minds of agents that can autonomously complete increasingly complex tasks.
arXiv:2506. 02260v5 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Wearable devices enable continuous multi-modal physiological and behavioral monitoring, yet analysis of these data streams faces fundamental challenges including the lack of gold-standard labels and incomplete sensor data.
