Model releases, architecture work and prompting research on large language models — from frontier-lab announcements to the arXiv papers behind them.
arXiv:2608. 06243v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Reinforcement learning with verifiable rewards (RLVR) improves the reasoning capabilities of large language models using automatically verifiable outcome signals, but these signals are typically sparse and at the sequence-level.
arXiv:2608. 06270v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The "thinking-with-images" paradigm equips multimodal LLMs with active visual operations such as crop-and-zoom.
arXiv:2608. 06300v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Automatic speaking assessment systems are increasingly deployed in high-stakes settings to mark second language (L2) learners' speaking tests, making it critical to show that their scores depend on speaking proficiency rather than irrelevant speaker attributes such as first language (L1) or age.
arXiv:2608. 06361v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Real-world video benchmarks provide broad coverage, but their fixed clips entangle event count, rate, duration, and visual complexity, making failure modes hard to isolate.
arXiv:2608. 05153v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: GraphRAG underperforms vector RAG on citation precision in many reports, but where and why have remained corpus-bound.
arXiv:2608. 05545v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Generative AI used as a capable servant has greatly accelerated intellectual work, but it also risks eroding human epistemic agency by encouraging uncritical acceptance of AI-generated reasoning.
arXiv:2608. 06015v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Deep Reinforcement Learning (RL) is notoriously sample inefficient.
arXiv:2608. 06130v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: AI agents performing cryptographic operations (signing Git commits, authenticating API calls, issuing certificates) currently store private keys in software-accessible locations: plaintext files, environment variables, or container memory.
arXiv:2604. 16742v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Scientists have long sought to accurately predict outcomes of real-world events before they happen.
arXiv:2511. 16839v4 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Purpose: Heart failure (HF) discharge planning depends on identifying patients at risk of deterioration or death, yet accurate prediction from routinely collected electronic health records (EHRs) remains challenging.
arXiv:2603. 12617v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Speculative decoding has emerged as a widely adopted paradigm for accelerating large language model inference, where a lightweight draft model rapidly generates candidate tokens that are then verified in parallel by a larger target model.
arXiv:2604. 08894v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Spiking Neural Networks (SNNs) offer superior energy efficiency over Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs).
arXiv:2604. 03750v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Reverse engineering (RE) is central to software security, particularly for cryptographic programs that handle sensitive data and are highly prone to vulnerabilities.
arXiv:2608. 05207v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Frozen pretrained forecasters often fail in structured, recurring ways that are costly to repair through fine-tuning.
arXiv:2608. 05303v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: On-device deployment of Large Language Models (LLMs) has become essential for personalized edge applications.
arXiv:2512. 03057v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We study distribution-free risk control for model routing, motivated by large language model reasoning.
arXiv:2602. 14265v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Inference-Time-Compute (ITC) methods like Best-of-$n$ and Tree-of-Thoughts are meant to produce output candidates that are both high-quality and diverse, but their use of high-temperature sampling often fails to achieve meaningful output diversity.
arXiv:2608. 05810v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Self-evolving agents accumulate capability by distilling reusable skills from their execution trajectories, but we find this process is not monotonic: past a critical pool size, newly added skills degrade performance instead of improving it.
arXiv:2601. 04098v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Transformer language models systematically prefer tokens at specific input positions regardless of semantic relevance---a phenomenon known as positional bias.
arXiv:2608. 05164v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Independently trained large language models may develop shared internal representations of semantic concepts despite architectural differences -- but whether this geometric similarity has functional consequences for cross-model behavioural control remains untested.
