ELISA: An Interpretable Hybrid Generative AI Agent for Expression-Grounded Discovery in Single-Cell Genomics

arXiv:2603. 11872v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Translating single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) data into mechanistic biological hypotheses remains a critical bottleneck, as agentic AI systems lack direct access to transcriptomic representations while expression foundation models remain opaque to natural language.

DualDiT: A Conditional Dual-Output Diffusion Transformer for Joint OCT Image and Segmentation Mask Generation

arXiv:2607. 29337v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Background and Objective: Generating realistic medical images with anatomically accurate segmentation masks helps address the shortage of annotated data in medical imaging, particularly in optical coherence tomography (OCT) of mouse eyes, where manual retinal layer delineation is labour-intensive due to tiny structures and required expertise, resulting in scarce datasets.

DRIP-R: A Benchmark for Decision-Making and Reasoning Under Real-World Policy Ambiguity in the Retail Domain

arXiv:2605. 07699v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: LLM-based agents are increasingly deployed for routine but consequential tasks in real-world domains, where their behavior is governed by inherently ambiguous domain policies that admit multiple valid interpretations.

How Hard Does It Think? Analyzing Step-Aware Reasoning Energy in LLM Chain-of-Thought Trajectories

arXiv:2607. 28674v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Understanding how computational effort is allocated across individual chain-of-thought (CoT) reasoning steps remains an open challenge: existing interpretability methods rely on output-level signals or collapse processing depth into a single trajectory-level scalar, leaving step-wise effort opaque.

MerchantBench: Benchmarking LLM Agents for Long-Term Coherence in E-Commerce Operations

arXiv:2607. 28956v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language model agents are increasingly evaluated as autonomous tool users, yet most benchmarks focus on bounded tasks with immediate success criteria.
