Model releases, architecture work and prompting research on large language models — from frontier-lab announcements to the arXiv papers behind them.
arXiv:2509. 23052v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: We present a new meta-learning method to determine the optimal learning rate schedule for gradient descent.
arXiv:2608. 07302v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large Vision-Language Models (LVLMs) often suffer from object hallucination, generating objects that are absent from the image.
arXiv:2608. 06638v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Mechanistic interpretability of music generation has concentrated on audio models, leaving symbolic models largely unexplored.
arXiv:2608. 07353v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Understanding concepts is fundamental to generalization.
arXiv:2608. 06834v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Transformers provide a powerful architecture for global content-based matching, but reasoning problems may benefit from a stronger inductive bias toward iterative traversal of latent relations.
Despite rapid advances in generative models, achieving pixel-level precision in sketch-based image editing remains a persistent challenge, particularly for fine-grained local deformations. This gap stems primarily from the critical shortage of high-quality, publicly available benchmark datasets that jointly provide geometric constraints and semantic instructions.
Large Language Models (LLMs) have driven rapid progress in autonomous agents, yet standard evaluations remain confined to static task solving. An emerging frontier is harness evolution---the agent's capacity to autonomously optimize its own operating harness.
Mobile app reviews are a rich, continuously renewing source of how users experience privacy and security, yet existing taxonomies of these concerns are hand-crafted and cannot keep pace with the evolving nature of the data. Automating taxonomy construction is the natural response, but scalability is the core challenge: current LLM- and clustering-based methods are developed for scientific corpora of a few thousand documents and do not extend to app review collections numbering in the hundreds of thousands.
Large language models are increasingly deployed as general-purpose educational and technical assistance systems, but their underlying infrastructure does not treat languages equally. One underexamined source of disparity is tokenization: semantically equivalent content can require substantially different token counts across languages, affecting API cost, latency, and usable context length before a model is invoked.
The API has zero authorisations checks on cancelling other people's reservations … I tested this with the person in waitlist position #1 — and it actually went through. So you've moved from #4 to #3 already.
We prove a sharp lower bound for smooth nonconvex stochastic optimization with uniformly bounded gradient noise. In the \(K=1\) fresh-sample model, every randomized adaptive algorithm requires $$Ω\left( \frac{ΔL}{ε^2} + \frac{ΔLσ^2}{ε^4} \right)$$ queries to find a point with expected gradient norm at most \(ε\).
As large language models increasingly participate in scientific evaluation, we investigate a potential form of reward hacking: how rhetorical choices shape AI-review judgments when reported scientific content is preserved and how these effects vary across evaluation conditions. We construct a controlled corpus of 4,200 full-paper manuscripts derived from 120 anonymized ICLR 2026 submissions.

AI training's rising resource intensity is straining electricity supplies and carbon budgets, motivating systematic study of memory-efficient training on constrained hardware. We benchmark five gradient optimizers (SGD, Adam, Adagrad, Adadelta, and Conjugate Gradient Descent) under three memory strategies (standard training, gradient checkpointing, and gradient accumulation) across four transformer architectures (ViT, ModernBERT, Llama 3.
Claude Fable 5 and Claude Mythos 5 were first released on June 9, 2026. On June 12, 2026, Anthropic suspended access to both models to comply with U.
GitHub Models is now retired I missed this news until today, when the GitHub Actions run for my simonw/research repository failed with this error message: GitHub Models is temporarily unavailable as part of a scheduled retirement brownout. That message is already stale, because the retirement has been completed.
This work presents a unified multimodal AI system for damage assessment that integrates retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) models, thermal spectrum perception, vision foundation model pipelines, and exploratory wireless signal sensing. A RAG component is developed to ground a locally hosted language model in project-specific documentation, including specialized damage level classification criteria to mitigate hallucinations during inference.
Reinforcement Learning with Verifiable Rewards (RLVR) makes Multimodal Large Language Models more accurate, but the gains are brittle: simply paraphrasing a question or changing the prompt template can degrade them, which challenges reliable deployment in high-stakes scenarios like medical VQA. We trace this to two issues of the standard RL objective.
