Answer Presence Drives RAG Rewriting Gains

arXiv:2606. 05633v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Retrieval-augmented QA pipelines often route retrieved passages through an LLM \emph{rewriter} before a smaller reader, lifting F1 by tens of points on multi-hop benchmarks; this gain is typically credited to improved evidence quality.

Beyond Semantic Organization: Memory as Execution State Management for Long-Horizon Agents

arXiv:2606. 06090v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: LLM-based agents increasingly tackle long-horizon tasks with interdependent decisions, where each action reshapes future constraints and intermediate errors can cascade.

Retrieval-Augmented Generation Must Move Beyond Factual Grounding to Represent Diverse Opinions

arXiv:2604. 12138v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: This position paper argues that Retrieval-Augmented Generation systems exhibit a systematic factual bias-optimizing for epistemic uncertainty reduction while ignoring the aleatoric uncertainty inherent in opinion-rich content - and that this misalignment demands a paradigm shift in retrieval system design.

LeWorldModel: Stable End-to-End Joint-Embedding Predictive Architecture from Pixels

arXiv:2603. 19312v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Joint Embedding Predictive Architectures (JEPAs) offer a compelling framework for learning world models in compact latent spaces, yet existing methods remain fragile, relying on complex multi-term losses, exponential moving averages, pre-trained encoders, or auxiliary supervision to avoid representation collapse.
