BackendForge: Benchmarking Agentic End-to-End Code Generation with Backend Services

Large language models (LLMs) are increasingly used in agentic coding settings, where they can inspect files, execute commands, run tests, observe failures, and iteratively revise code. This shift raises a central evaluation question: can an agentic LLM generate an end-to-end software artifact that is both deployable and behaviorally correct under execution?

Temporal Feature Distillation for Label-Efficient Precise Event Spotting in Sports Videos

Precise Event Spotting (PES) requires distinguishing visually similar yet semantically distinct adjacent frames, making it fundamentally different from image classification and coarse action recognition. Although self-distillation methods such as DINO have shown strong representation learning ability in images, we find that directly applying them to PES is ineffective: without supervised guidance, subtle but crucial motion cues are often suppressed as noise, leading to representations that are insensitive to precise event boundaries.

From Checker to Forecaster: Code-Owned Evaluation of Model-Generated Strategic Routes Under Delayed Ground Truth

Many evaluations of model outputs rely either on contracts checkable at evaluation time or on feedback that arrives within the operating loop. We study the complementary setting in which ground truth is delayed, censored, or private, so deterministic code cannot check correctness at scoring time and must instead issue a code-owned provisional forecast.

Predictive Divergence Masks for LLM RL

Reinforcement learning for large language models (LLMs) typically relies on trust-region masks to stabilize off-policy updates. The dominant PPO-style approach uses the sampled-token importance ratio for two criteria: a proximity criterion, which asks whether the policy has moved too far from the behavior policy, and a direction criterion, which asks whether the update pushes it farther away.

3D-DefectBench: A Controlled Factorial Study of Vision-Language Model Evaluation Pipelines for Fine-Grained 3D Generation Defects

Automated evaluation is essential for scaling generative 3D systems, where exhaustive human review is costly and slow. However, the reliability of an automated judge depends on the entire evaluation pipeline, not only the underlying vision-language model (VLM), but also how assets are rendered, what visual evidence is provided, how the task is specified, and how human reference labels are constructed.
