When persona-conditioned responses are read as respondent-level simulations, each response should reflect the described persona's knowledge, and the respondent written to know nothing must act as if…
Reinforcement Learning with Verifiable Rewards has shown great promise in enhancing mathematical reasoning in large language models. However, existing approaches provide limited intermediate…
We present an inference-time approach that enhances the visual diversity of image sets generated by text-to-image models, without compromising the average image quality. Our method leverages the…
Industrial advertising agents must continually adapt their decision knowledge to changing product offerings, traffic patterns, and operating policies. We present KARMA (Knowledge-Atomic,…
New concepts based in interactional thinking are required to understand how humans are changed by relating to LLMs. Standard theories of technological impact upon users' autonomy are inadequate here,…
Noise synthesis is commonly approached through physical models of image formation or neural networks trained to generate noisy images. We explore a middle ground: an explicit statistical model fitted…
Continual learning methods for large language models increasingly decide what to learn by surprise, keeping the inputs the model finds least predictable. This rule is unsafe when the stream contains…
Best Arm Identification (BAI) conventionally measures the cost of experimentation by the number of samples collected. In many operational settings, however, the cost of exploration relative to a…
Pretrained generative models, such as diffusion and flow matching models, have demonstrated exceptional capabilities in synthesizing high-quality data. However, steering their generative trajectories…
LLM-based multi-agent systems (MAS) rely on collaboration among specialized agents to solve complex tasks. Existing methods improve MAS by refining the prompts, skills, and execution strategies of…
Long-horizon consistency is essential for video world models, yet it becomes difficult to maintain once observed content falls outside the context window. Existing memory mechanisms either retrieve…
Large language model serving stacks, commercial inference APIs, vector databases, and agent orchestration gateways are now ex- posed on the public internet and indexed by commodity scanners within…
We study contextual dynamic pricing in a non-stationary environment. In each round, a seller observes a buyer's context, posts a price, and receives only binary purchase feedback.
Over-refusal is a critical side effect of safety alignment in large language models (LLMs), causing harmless but superficially risky queries to be mistakenly rejected. Despite the effectiveness of…
Second language learners benefit from exposure to level-appropriate grammar in interactive language use. While prompted frontier language models can usually produce target grammar structures, less…
When a language model says "I," does it refer to its parameter weights, its currently running process, its stable preferences, its model lineage, or the goals it pursues? Different choices can assign…
Airflow-driven advection is the primary mechanism for gas and aerosol dispersion in real-world scenarios, making accurate airflow estimation essential for ventilation monitoring, gas source…
As Large Language Model (LLM) agents increasingly participate in persistent social environments, understanding their long-term social interaction capabilities becomes increasingly important. While…
Video world models generate future visual observations from camera or action inputs, with the goal of synthesizing persistent 3D worlds that can be explored across time and space. Existing benchmarks…
In engineering, applications of artificial intelligence have so far been largely limited to surrogate models and optimization tasks. Large language models changed this, as they can write software…
Background: Contemporary healthcare institutions generate daily very large amounts of data, which contain highly useful information for the improvement of work organization, planning and overall…
Large language models (LLMs) draw on parametric knowledge and retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) to solve knowledge-intensive tasks. Yet problem solving in unfamiliar domains calls for tightly…
Thinking vision-language models reason for thousands of tokens, yet still miss small details in high-resolution images. Zooming methods pay for extra inference passes, and outcome rewards never tell…
Colonoscopy is inherently comparative: reliable visual assessment of polyps often depends on complementary views acquired under different viewpoints and imaging conditions. Retrieving such views…
