It is found that across the studied state of the art latent world models, none solves the task by actually faithfully modeling the dynamics of the environment.
Personalized recommendation depends on learning semantic and collaborative relations among items from online content and user interactions. Generative recommendation (GR) offers a promising paradigm by autoregressively generating discrete semantic IDs (SIDs) of items. However, randomly initialized SID token embeddings...

AI agents have made substantial progress in domains where they have a non-trivial amount of time to deliberate between actions, such as mathematics, software engineering, and performing tasks on desktop applications. It is less clear how such models fare in settings that demand real-time interaction, such as playing a...
Clinical pipelines deploying selective prediction under imbalance should adopt threshold-aligned uncertainty measures and class-stratified evaluation to reduce class-specific risk imbalance, supporting safer selective prediction under the evaluated conditions without silently excluding the most vulnerable patients.

Manipulation policies are evaluated predominantly by binary task success, which cannot tell whether the commanded gesture is the one the object's kinematics admit. We introduce Constraint-Referenced Strategy (CRS), which projects the commanded end-effector twist onto the object's joint axis, separating progress along t...

Adaptive Residual Correction is introduced, a lightweight post-training module that uses reinforcement learning (RL) to learn a residual correction on top of a frozen policy while using sparse human corrections to structure autonomous exploration.

Multi-view or video diffusion models have recently emerged as state-of-the-art approaches for novel-view synthesis from sparse image collections. While they can produce high quality images, they tend to hallucinate unrealistic spatial layouts when synthesizing views outside the input views (scene extrapolation). We pro...

Failure diagnosers for robot manipulation are increasingly vision--language models (VLMs), trained and evaluated on single-arm failures produced by perturbing a successful demonstration. Bimanual tool use adds failures of other kinds: a tool that slips out of its socket while still held, two correct gestures made at di...

A persistent belief in modern AI is that sufficiently large learners trained on sufficiently much data can make explicit domain knowledge optional. This paper examines a limitation of that belief. We define structure-encoded problems: tasks whose input-output map is determined, or sharply constrained, by known structur...
Activation steering offers an effective and efficient way to modify an LLM's behavior at inference time. However, it remains unclear how to apply steering such that the signal is consistently strong and the steering strength has a universally interpretable meaning. We address this first by identifying the most steerabl...

Online resource allocation faces two coupled challenges: (1) allocating scarce resources efficiently under uncertain future demand, and (2) ensuring that agents report task valuations and requirements truthfully (strategyproofness). Reinforcement Learning (RL) adapts allocation decisions through experience but does not...

Fine-tuning Large Language Models (LLMs) on instruction data can quietly erode their safety, even when no training example looks harmful. Because this safety-degrading data looks benign, standard content filters struggle to catch it. We tackle this problem by developing SimpleLoRIF, a scalable gradient embedding method...
