Context Compaction for World Models

World models let observers explore and interact with generated worlds. Recent work shows that when observers revisit a region, current models often fail to regenerate it consistently. We view this as a context retrieval problem. LLM agents manage context retrieval at two layers of their stack. At the model layer, the K...

Dungeons&Dragons Encounter Analysis with Semi-Random Simulation in Foundry VTT

A tool is created that can simulate D&D encounters semi-randomly using Foundry Virtual Tabletop, a virtual tabletop (VTT) system, and it is shown that the tool's simulated winrates have a strong correlation with D&D's published difficulty evaluation metrics, while also better aligning with some players'reported experie...

Efficient Agentic Audio-Visual Question Answering through Toolset Pruning and Modality Consolidation

Fine-grained audio-visual question answering (AVQA) requires models to resolve complex cross-modal correspondences and temporally grounding from sparsely distributed evidence. Omni-modal agents, which autonomously orchestrate perception tools to actively collect evidence, achieve strong performance, but it remains uncl...

Aligning Autoresearch: Co-Improvement between Agents and Humans

Autoresearch agents can now attempt long-horizon AI research end-to-end, i.e., self-improvement. However, best results are still obtained by research agents interacting with human researchers, and improving AI's ability to perform this co-research will only reinforce this effect---a process termed co-improvement (Westo...

Auditable Belief Updates as a Missing Safety Layer for LLM-Powered Multi-Agent Systems

This paper proposes the Explicit Belief Multi-Agent System (EB-MAS), which externalizes belief states into a structured substrate, uses belief operators to propose candidate updates, and applies a Cognitive Firewall to bound or reject updates that are weakly evidenced but strongly driven by vulnerability cues.

Where You Inject Matters: The Trust Region Effect in LLM Agents

This work provides the first systematic characterization for the effectiveness of different injection placements, spanning both coarse-grained environmental surfaces and fine-grained positions, and develops learning-based attackers that generate injection content and select better injection placements.

Learning to Reason from Reference Samples Alone: Reinforced Adversarial Learning for Modern LLM Post-Training

In many settings where LLM post-training is desirable, high-quality answers are recognizable but difficult to score with explicit rewards. Reinforcement learning with verifiable rewards (RLVR) is limited to tasks where an explicit correctness signal is available. Prior adversarial approaches to training reasoning LLMs...

Leaving, Staying, or Living There? Duration Commonsense Reasoning with Human-LLM Co-annotations

Gardening in the backyard implies living there, while checking into an Airbnb more likely means staying for a few days. Such duration judgments are important for understanding human mobility, travel behavior, and social context. However, duration is rarely stated explicitly in social media posts and must instead be inf...

From Grind to Grasp

Discussions of complexity, knowledge and intelligence often overlook the work involved. For example, outputs generated by short programs have low algorithmic complexity but can have high computational depth, the least work needed to produce them from near-shortest programs. Producing them with less work can require lon...

Beyond fabrication: Misattributed numbers in papers written by AI research agents

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, often produced by a single LLM judge, identify failure without explaining its nature, and existing checks either test a pap...

Deogen: Automatic Benchmark Generation for Reasoning over Policies

Language models are increasingly being deployed in regulated settings, where a model must apply given rules to the facts of a situation to determine a verdict. Benchmarking this capability, known as deontic reasoning, remains a costly and manual process, with existing datasets largely hand-crafted. In this paper, we pr...
