Organisations keep decades of financial records as scanned PDFs on shared drives, and AI agents can now reach those drives through Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers. Existing benchmarks do not…
Large language models (LLMs) have rapidly become a default source of help for students in science and engineering courses. In foundational engineering mechanics courses such as statics, students…
Introspection, the ability of a system to access and reason about its internal signals, is crucial for language model (LM) self-consistency and scalable interpretability. Prior work argues that LMs…
Multi-agent debate systems require agents to retain and revisit arguments across multiple rounds, yet limited context windows and unstructured memories make relevant information increasingly…
We study a pricing game in markets with budget-constrained buyers, where each seller offers a single good at a price she sets, and each buyer chooses a utility-maximizing bundle subject to her…
Contextual embeddings represent chunks of a document with respect to the document's global context. These models are typically trained and evaluated under the assumption that a relevant document…
Chemical language models can struggle to generate new molecules when trained on small datasets, where a model may reproduce training examples rather than learn a useful generative distribution.…
Translated versions of English-origin benchmarks such as MMLU are widely used to evaluate large language models in non-English languages, yet it remains unclear whether they measure the same…
Autonomous navigation in off-road terrain is commonly achieved using hierarchical control and planning architectures that rely on explicit cost maps and one-way information flow from a high-level…
Graphical models are widely used to represent conditional independence structures, but learning them is challenging when data are fragmented across sources that measure different subsets of variables…
Frontier language models express coherent preferences, but behavioral evidence alone cannot say whether these belong to the model or to a character it portrays. Following Hofstadter's view of the…
Human handwriting is produced as an ordered sequence of pen movements, but an offline image keeps only the final ink. Handwriting trajectory recovery aims to restore the ordered stroke points and…
AI co-scientists have expanded the use of large language models for generating scientific hypotheses and guiding experimental investigation. Here we investigate whether temporal patterns in the…
Packing a 3D volume into a token sequence is not merely long-sequence modeling. Once the volume is packed, sequence order no longer encodes the geometry of the sample---so a positional mechanism…
Verifying numerical claims in research written by AI agents is an important but challenging problem. Recent benchmarks show that many agent-written papers fail integrity checks, but such verdicts,…
Ranking aggregation from multiple retrievers is a powerful yet under-explored technique in modern retrieval and RAG systems. We introduce LLM-IRA, the first extension of the quantum-inspired…
Recent advances in multimodal large language models have increased interest in interaction paradigms for video understanding. The evolution from offline to streaming and proactive interaction has…
Financial assistants answer questions that sound factual but depend on what the user leaves unsaid: what a data figure measures, which product variant is meant, and the investor's situation and the…
Simulation is essential for testing automated driving systems (ADS), but discrepancies between simulation and reality can undermine testing conclusions. It remains unclear which discrepancies the…
When an LLM agent fails, repair methods choose which action to replace and what to put in its place. They often score candidate repairs with greedy replay, a stronger model, an environment oracle, or…
A binary success indicator is a natural representation for discriminative tasks such as image classification under adversarial perturbations, where each input is mapped to a single prediction.…
Robust depth estimation aims to maintain high-quality depths across diverse conditions. However, most existing methods estimate depth without taking into account the object-level information.
Large audio language models (LALMs) can process speech directly, but it remains unclear how well they use the non-lexical acoustic information that speech carries. We study this question through…
Detecting whether and in particular how two data distributions differ is a fundamental statistical problem. For example, we might be interested in which concepts (expressed in natural language)…
