arXiv:2608. 10260v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Lens methods interpret large language models (LLMs) by mapping intermediate activations to the output vocabulary, revealing how next-token predictions develop through the network.

arXiv:2608. 10300v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Electronic health-record interoperability is a boundary problem: legacy systems, generative models, terminology services, identity systems, and human reviewers may each expose rich internal states, while operational exchange requires a narrow shared interface of typed claims, bounded uncertainty, provenance, and explicit admission or abstention.

arXiv:2608. 10471v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Prompt optimizers automate the search for prompts that improve language-model performance, but existing methods rely on a predefined optimization procedure: the algorithm determines which candidates to explore and how the search progresses, while the language model generates or refines prompt proposals.

arXiv:2608. 10480v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) are widely applied across chemical tasks, such as molecular property prediction, which underpins drug discovery.

arXiv:2608. 10502v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Persistent memory lets language-model agents reuse information across sessions, but it also makes errors durable: a poisoned, stale, or misattributed record can alter reasoning, tool use, answers, and subsequent memory writes.

arXiv:2608. 10505v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Automated radiology report generation is advancing rapidly in response to the shortage of radiologists, yet unlike a perception model, existing generation models offer no control over the sensitivity-specificity trade-off of their diagnostic content.

arXiv:2608. 10665v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Multimodal large language models often generate reasoning chains containing subtle errors that lead to incorrect answers.

arXiv:2608. 10775v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Computer-using agents can perceive rich software interfaces, yet their decisions often lack visual procedural memory: they may recognize individual controls without identifying which familiar workflow is active, which control matters next, or what evidence would confirm progress.

arXiv:2608. 10795v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Successful mutation strategies in evolutionary code search may contain reusable knowledge that is useful beyond a single run, and in some cases may transfer across related tasks and domains.
