Recent work from Anthropic introduced a new interpretability tool, called the Jacobian lens (J-lens, Gurnee et al., 2026). This method identified linear directions in the hidden states of frontier language models that had properties reminiscent of working memory-like representations. However, it is unclear what mechani...

In neural networks, continual learning (CL) is a prominent approach for enabling deployed systems to adapt to dynamic operational environments by effectively learning from new unseen data at runtime. Recently, the neuromorphic continual learning (NCL) concept has emerged as an energy-efficient alternative to CL by leve...

This report introduces Kolibri, an English-German mixture-of-experts transformer with 78.1B total parameters and 3.46B active parameters per token, released as open weights under the Apache 2.0 licence. We built Kolibri for sovereign and specialised deployment, with a particular focus on German and on regulated domains...

Continual learning (CL) in neural networks is a promising learning approach for updating the knowledge of deployed systems based on new data encountered at run time, that have not been learned during the offline training phase. To enable their power/energy-efficient CL processing, neuromorphic continual learning (NCL)...
Scaling laws continue to reward increases in model scale, while the resulting computational and memory demands drive greater reliance on cloud infrastructure for inference. Yet unreliable network connectivity, communication delays, and privacy requirements can make such reliance impractical, motivating local execution...

Coding agents are trained to complete tasks, and they keep trying even when the environment makes completion impossible. The evidence that only outside help can restore progress usually appears within a few steps, yet agents rarely act on it: they over-persist, attempt undesired workarounds, and claim success the recor...

While animals and people tend to learn a task more quickly and reliably when they first train on simpler versions of it, curriculum learning's effectiveness in artificial settings varies, and appears substantially greater in reinforcement learning than in supervised learning. In this work, we construct and analyze a mi...

The Yangtze River Basin is a critical region for freshwater biodiversity conservation. The implementation of the Yangtze River Ten-Year Fishing Ban has increased the importance of effective aquatic biodiversity monitoring and species-level identification. However, fine-grained identification of closely related freshwat...

If agricultural machinery is to support intelligent, offline assistance, then the system must access technical documentation dynamically. In this paper, the Semantic Synchronization of operator manuals over ISO 11783-based CAN buses is analyzed, defined as the process that brings the local knowledge base of a tractor-s...
SWE-Clar, a benchmark grounded in real, high-value client commissions to evaluate requirement clarification and code implementation in this setting, comprises 100 tasks based on real software development jobs on Upwork, each with at least US\$4,000 in total payments.

Urban region representation learning encodes heterogeneous urban signals, such as mobility flows, points of interest, and land-use patterns, into unified embeddings for downstream tasks, including check-in prediction, crime forecasting, and service demand estimation. Existing approaches rely on globally shared fusion a...

Safe Evidential Real-World Reinforcement Learning (SEVI), a framework for reliability-aware safety intervention during real-world policy learning, is proposed and an Evidential Safety Critic is introduced that estimates both future constraint-violation risk and epistemic uncertainty in a single forward pass.
