Efficient long-term conversational memory requires retrieving sufficient evidence without indiscriminately expanding the context presented to the language model. This is challenging because relevant evidence may be distributed across multiple sessions, while compression may discard details needed for answering. Different queries therefore require different forms of memory access. To capture these demands, we formulate memory access along two dimensions: discovery breadth, which controls how broadly evidence is searched, and reading fidelity, which controls whether evidence is read in compact form or recovered from the original conversation. Based on this formulation, we introduce JustMem, which stores conversation history as compact atomic memories and adapts memory access along these two dimensions to each query. Specifically, LOOKUP handles local evidence, COMPOSE broadens discovery for distributed evidence, and REPLAY increases reading fidelity for fidelity-sensitive evidence. On LoCoMo and LongMemEval-S, JustMem achieves the highest mean accuracy and retrieval recall among the compared memory systems while using substantially fewer generative-model tokens for memory construction and inference.

Reinforcement learning (RL) excels on tasks with verifiable rewards, but in open-ended tasks, the reliability of reward models remains a key challenge. Existing solutions either depend on costly proprietary LLM-as-a-Judge systems or opaque scalar reward models that lack interpretability. Recent works on generative reward models offer a promising alternative, but they remain constrained by static evaluation criteria, fragmented evaluation paradigms, and limited multilingual support. To address these challenges, we introduce \textbf{MixReward}, a large-scale multilingual dataset spanning six domains and 103 languages, containing both pairwise and listwise data, and propose \textbf{UniRRM}, a unified reasoning reward model supporting multiple languages and evaluation paradigms. UniRRM uses a staged reasoning chain to dynamically generate task-generic and instruction-specific criteria, enabling fine-grained, input-adaptive judgments while maintaining consistency across languages. Experiments demonstrate that UniRRM-8B and UniRRM-14B achieve performance close to the state-of-the-art for models of comparable size across multiple benchmarks, and are effective for unseen evaluation paradigms. In addition, ablation studies validate the reliability and effectiveness of UniRRM.

Aligning large language models with human preferences remains a challenge, primarily due to the critical role of preference data quality in effective alignment. Existing datasets are frequently plagued by inherent noise and distribution shifts, which inherently limit model performance. To bridge this gap, we propose AlignDiff, a preference data filtering framework driven by intrinsic model signals. AlignDiff first identifies samples with clear preferences using both positive and inverse signals, then prioritizes the more challenging samples based on the average negative log-likelihood gap, encouraging the model to learn richer information from them. AlignDiff is evaluated on two widely used model families (LLaMA and Qwen) and three benchmarks widely adopted in the alignment community (AlpacaEval 2.0, Arena-Hard, and MT-Bench). Across all settings, it consistently outperforms seven strong baselines. We conduct comprehensive ablation studies to validate the effectiveness of AlignDiff, and further show that difficulty-based curriculum learning improves model performance.
CAST (Concept-guided Artifact Suppression Tuning), an SAE-based framework for auditable clinical text classification, improves over its corresponding fine-tuned encoder baselines and remains competitive with strong LLM baselines, while producing a feature-level audit trail of the clinical concepts that support each prediction and the artifact concepts suppressed during training.
P-Bench is built, a benchmark comprising 425 open-ended, realistic hypothesis-testing tasks spanning economics, biology, and medicine and introduces Fisher-R1, an open-weight LLM agent trained for rigorous hypothesis testing using synthetic tasks and reinforcement learning.
