Model releases, architecture work and prompting research on large language models — from frontier-lab announcements to the arXiv papers behind them.
Large language model (LLM) agents require post-training methods that can improve long-horizon decision making from environment feedback. However, existing agentic post-training pipelines often treat data curation as a fixed preprocessing step, focusing mainly on data augmentation while neglecting filtering, refinement, and adaptation to downstream failures.
Putnam's Social Capital Theory is a foundational framework for collective action and community prosperity. However, traditional empirical methods face practical limits on control and replication.
government of the people, by the people, for the people ... — Abraham Lincoln, Gettysburg Address (1863) The cost of AI is dropping rapidly.
Real estate property listings expose structured metadata through the API. Still, the richest property-level information (i.
This paper presents a black-box evaluation framework to systematically assess the ability of Large Language Models (LLMs) to generate Design Structure Matrices (DSMs) from structured technical documentation. Motivated by the closed-source nature of current Auto-DSM pipelines, the framework introduces a reproducible methodology that benchmarks generated DSMs (GEN-DSMs) against manually validated ground-truth matrices (GT-DSMs).
Filled pauses (FPs) are a universal feature of spontaneous speech, yet most studies rely on small, single-language corpora, limiting the generalisability of their findings. We analyse ~4,000 hours of parliamentary speech across four related Slavic languages (Croatian, Czech, Polish, Serbian).
The integration of Large Language Models (LLMs) into scientific research workflows, particularly for bibliographic discovery and literature synthesis, raises significant methodological, epistemic and regulatory challenges for the Social Sciences and Humanities (SSH), especially with regard to disciplinary diversity, multilingual access to sources and the evaluation of results. This paper presents an on-going use case developed within the European project LLMs4EU and the ALT-EDIC infrastructure, aimed at adapting foundation models to SSH research practices and supporting tasks such as question answering, comparative document analysis and literature review.
Sentiment analysis with frozen pre-trained language model (PLM) backbones has become a common paradigm, yet the practical benefit of explicit domain adaptation remains unclear, particularly when backbones encode varying degrees of target-domain knowledge. We present a preliminary case study evaluating a controlled family of frozen embedding backbones (Qwen3-Embedding 0.
Automatic depression detection using audio-visual data faces significant challenges, particularly in disentangling overlapping feature distributions and establishing robust decision boundaries. To address this, we propose a fine-grained multimodal framework featuring a temporal encoder and a mutual transformer to facilitate deep cross-modal fusion.
Vision-Language Models (VLMs) are promising for construction-site monitoring, and recent construction-tailored VLMs have primarily adapted pretrained VLMs through direct QA-style fine-tuning from a single global image. We argue that this direct paradigm remains limited for in-the-wild deployment in terms of operational range, reliability under reduced-resolution inputs, and inference efficiency.
Low-resource languages remain challenging for machine translation, and Mongolian is a representative case. As a digraphic language, Mongolian is written in both Cyrillic and Traditional scripts, which exhibit a severe imbalance in data availability.
Accurate ranking of antibody candidates according to their binding affinity is essential for therapeutic antibody discovery. However, existing methods treat affinity comparisons independently and ignore the contextual information encoded in other labeled comparisons, limiting their ability to capture antigen-specific binding landscapes.
arXiv:2607. 02964v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: A central goal of mechanistic interpretability is to understand how neural networks work and what each individual component does.
arXiv:2605. 09018v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We introduce Evolutionary Ensemble (EvE), a decentralized framework that organizes existing, highly capable coding agents into a live, co-evolving system for algorithmic discovery.
arXiv:2607. 03007v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Recent advances in molecular large language models have led to strong performance on molecular understanding and generation tasks, yet these gains often come without reliable structural grounding.

arXiv:2607. 04969v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The training paradigm of large language models has shifted from traditional one-pass training to multi-epoch training, as reasonable reuse of limited high-quality data can improve both model performance and sample efficiency.

arXiv:2607. 02612v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Vision Transformers achieve strong image classification accuracy but process all image regions with nearly the same computation, even when many regions are redundant or uninformative.
