Model releases, architecture work and prompting research on large language models — from frontier-lab announcements to the arXiv papers behind them.
arXiv:2608. 06075v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Commercial vision-language models are reshaping computer vision, with visual priors broad enough to rival task-specific systems.
arXiv:2608. 06153v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Automated skill evolution enables Large Language Model (LLM) agents to continuously improve without expensive retraining.
arXiv:2608. 06154v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Vision-language models (VLMs) are increasingly used as zero-shot controllers, but successful trajectories do not necessarily show that decisions are grounded in visual input: simulator dynamics and conservative action priors can produce favourable scores without meaningful perception.
arXiv:2608. 06329v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Task-oriented conversational agents are evaluated using curated or automatically generated benchmarks, yet benchmark quality is rarely assessed.
arXiv:2608. 06331v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: From natural-language query interfaces to automated report generation, data analysis tools need a description of the data: the real-world entities it contains, which columns function as measures or identifiers, and how tables connect into units of analysis.
arXiv:2608. 06362v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Deciding which of two agents is stronger means playing games until skill outweighs luck, and every game costs money, model inference, or expert time.
arXiv:2607. 28609v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Computer-using agents (CUAs) are advancing rapidly across the digital world.
arXiv:2510. 05589v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Effective time series forecasting enables various real-world applications, benefiting from the proliferation of mobile devices.
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.
