Reaction precedents guide retrosynthesis, but how far they can compensate for gaps in task-specific training coverage remains unclear. Using 2.71 million reactions, we restricted training and retrieval coverage by transformation or time, then expanded only the retrieval corpus with model parameters fixed. For transform...

This work introduces EnvOS, a framework for building and certifying environments that change mid-task, and applies it to stale information, where a value the agent has already seen changes before the agent acts on it.

The proposed EpiAgent is a framework that equips LLM-based agents with an explicit, learnable epistemic layer, which maintains beliefs over others' private information and combines these beliefs with the agent's available information into an epistemic state for action selection.

Link prediction on text-attributed graphs (TAGs) is a fundamental problem with applications in knowledge discovery, recommendation and beyond. Recent progress has highlighted the promise of combining Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) with Language Models (LMs) in order to leverage the complementary structural and semantic s...

Multi-step Web tasks often require several LLM agents to gather and combine evidence. The communication graph of a fixed workflow restricts which agents can read each other's outputs: evidence retrieved by one agent may never reach the agent that needs it, leaving an information gap and an incomplete or incorrect answe...

Increasingly, users express their needs as natural-language intents rather than structured requests. These intents may be incomplete, high-level, or internally conflicting. A conflicting intent either violates fundamental properties of the cloud paradigm or states mutually inconsistent requirements. Classical compositi...
Generative AI in education is usually judged by the output of human-AI teams. That focus overlooks a second outcome: what people can still understand, challenge, repair, and adapt when assistance changes or disappears. We call this tension the generative paradox and distinguish four manifestations: performance, assista...
Web agents are typically evaluated with goals fully specified before execution and fixed thereafter, whereas real users often revise their requirements during interaction. To study such interactions, we introduce DynaRev, a benchmark of 181 tasks to evaluate web agents under dynamic goal revision. DynaRev uses semantic...

Rubric-based rewards provide fine-grained, interpretable supervision for open-ended reinforcement learning, where holistic scalar rewards struggle to capture multidimensional response quality. Static rubrics can lose discriminative power as the policy distribution evolves, while existing policy--rubric co-evolution met...

The way software gets built is changing dramatically. AI agents now create pull requests, select dependencies, refactor codebases, interpret test failures, and execute infrastructure changes across the entire Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC). AI agents are autonomous team members, but unlike human engineers, they...
Language models handle text well, and rule engines give conclusions with proofs. Systems that combine the two are usually described by example, and the same coupling turns up under different names in agent frameworks, guardrail toolkits and neuro-symbolic research. This document defines thirteen patterns for coupling a...
Memory in reinforcement learning raises two problems. Attention finds the relevant item by scoring the whole store, which is costly for robots under latency and energy limits. When a retrieved memory pays off, credit for acquiring it must cross the whole sequence. We argue that both are governed by one quantity, the va...
