arXiv:2608. 04670v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large Language Models (LLMs) have transformed computational linguistics and achieved remarkable performance across numerous natural language processing tasks, yet significant gaps persist in understanding how these systems process culturally embedded linguistic expressions.
arXiv:2608. 05095v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Agents for long term reasoning require a memory that can be efficiently and effectively updated over time, as new facts and external feedback continue to arrive.
arXiv:2608. 05000v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Vision offers a critical axis for advancing foundation models, driving a shift towards natively unified multimodal pretraining.
arXiv:2608. 04678v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Papers 1-2 of the Kathleen series showed that a byte-level, attention-free architecture built from a wavetable encoder and multi-scale reverberant state can match strong baselines on classification at ~450-700K parameters, without pretraining.
arXiv:2608. 04589v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: EgoCross is a cross-domain egocentric video question answering benchmark designed to evaluate whether multimodal large language models can generalize beyond common daily-life scenarios.
arXiv:2608. 04830v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Memory is essential as language agents move from isolated tasks to long-horizon, stateful workflows, yet existing evaluations often reduce it to retrieval or question answering.
Agents for long term reasoning require a memory that can be efficiently and effectively updated over time, as new facts and external feedback continue to arrive. Recently, graph memory has been adopted to offer structural organization for multi-hop retrieval and reasoning.
Memory is essential as language agents move from isolated tasks to long-horizon, stateful workflows, yet existing evaluations often reduce it to retrieval or question answering. We introduce ContextWeave, a longitudinal benchmark that evaluates whether recalled experience improves downstream agent performance in realistic office-work streams.
arXiv:2608. 03733v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Multimodal large language models (MLLMs) have achieved remarkable performance across vision-language tasks, but their progress depends heavily on large-scale, high-quality multimodal data that are costly to annotate.
arXiv:2608. 03711v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: In human visual perception, uppercase lettering serves as a natural salience cue that captures attention within lowercase text.
arXiv:2608. 03095v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We present VIVID (Vietnamese Idioms for Validation and Interpretation Depth), the first systematic benchmark for evaluating culturally grounded figurative language understanding in Vietnamese.
arXiv:2608. 03855v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Transformer models have revolutionized natural language processing (NLP), and text-based molecular representations like SMILES have successfully extended these architectures to chemistry.
arXiv:2608. 03127v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Hand motion carries the finest-grained information in human activity, yet the representations behind hand generation, understanding, and robot learning are overwhelmingly continuous--joint angles or MANO parameters.
arXiv:2608. 02615v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Cancer diagnosis and characterization require integrating complementary evidence from radiology, pathology, genomics, and clinical metadata.
arXiv:2608. 03584v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Artificial intelligence (AI) is rapidly transforming high-skilled domains, requiring higher education institutions (HEI) to balance the teaching of foundational principles with the integration of emerging tools to ensure workforce readiness.
arXiv:2608. 03463v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Long-term memory is essential for LLM-based agents to sustain interactions and reliably leverage distant history.
arXiv:2608. 03292v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Long Document Visual Question Answering (LongDocVQA) requires Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) to locate, integrate, and reason over heterogeneous document elements distributed across multiple pages.
arXiv:2608. 02961v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We study a self-supervised generation task for single-cell gene expression vectors: given a set of vectors from a cell type, we aim to generate additional gene expression vectors of that cell type.
arXiv:2608. 03611v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Multimodal Sentiment Analysis (MSA) integrates text, audio, and vision to infer human affect, yet real-world multimodal observations are often incomplete.
