TRACER: Trajectory-Aware Tool Retrieval for LLM Agents

Modern agents select tools from registries, but exposing entire registries incurs high token costs and can impair selection as they grow. We present TRACER, a retrieval front-end that indexes observed tool-call sequences in a trie and ranks continuations using a learned blend of empirical and contextual priors. On a mi...

TRACER: A Multimodal Harness for Patient Care in Hospitals

Continuous video and clinical records provide complementary information for understanding how patient behavior evolves over a hospital stay. A central challenge is how to represent behavior across the entire stay while preserving access to fine-grained visual and clinical evidence. We introduce TRACER, a training-free...

Behavioral Compositionality of Sparse Autoencoder Representations

Sparse autoencoders (SAEs) represent model activations with sparse, linearly decoded features, but the downstream effects of those features need not compose additively. We introduce SAE Additivity Residuals (SAR), which measure the behavioral variation left unexplained above a chosen interaction order. Under independen...

Fractional Power-of-Two Quantization for Efficient and Effective Multiplier-Free LLM Inference

Large Language Models (LLMs) demand efficient inference, where the multiply-accumulate (MAC) operations in linear projections dominate compute and energy cost. Post-training quantization (PTQ) reduces this cost by mapping weights and activations to low-bit integers. Power-of-Two (PoT) weight quantization promises effic...

What do AI chatbots do after users decline therapeutic redirection for suicide thoughts?

Safety evaluations of artificial intelligence (AI) chatbots focus on therapeutic redirection, statements urging users who disclose suicide thoughts to seek help from crisis lines or other human sources. How chatbots respond when users refuse that help is unclear. This cross-sectional audit ran 2,550 scripted multi-turn...

System1-Arena: Which Decisions Can Be Left to System 1?

The largest System-1 models match or exceed fast closed LLMs in non-agentic accuracy, with better-calibrated probabilities at one-quarter of the latency, and a reasoning LLM is the most accurate, at about 70x the cost of a fast LLM.

A Responsibility-Centered Coordination Mechanism for Decentralized Multi-Agent Systems

Centralized orchestration provides comprehensive multi-agent coordination but creates bottlenecks in scalability, adaptability, and collective performance. Decentralized approaches alleviate these bottlenecks by distributing coordination across agents, yet often leave responsibility for delegated dependencies and failu...

Representation Redistribution in Sparse Autoencoders

Sparse autoencoders (SAEs) decompose language model activations into sparse features, but prompt transformations designed to preserve the underlying request can redistribute activity across them. A feature change observed on one transformed prompt need not recur, and even a recurring change need not affect a downstream...

RecSoup: Efficient Model Merging Approach for Controllable Multi-Objective Recommendation

Recommender systems often need to balance multiple conflicting objectives. Controllable Multi-Objective Recommendation (CMOR) enables dynamic adjustment of objective trade-offs at inference time without retraining, adapting to shifting user or system requirements. Existing CMOR approaches typically rely on output-level...

FedSumUp: User-Auditable Privacy-Aware Representation Sharing for Resource-Constrained Federated Intelligence

Existing federated data condensation methods face privacy risks, as uploaded synthetic data may preserve sensitive information and remain vulnerable to reconstruction attacks. Moreover, their generation often incurs considerable client-side computational overhead, limiting deployment on resource-constrained devices. To...

Judging the Judges: Confidence and Disagreement in Rubrics as Rewards

Rubrics as Rewards (RaR) extends reinforcement learning to non-verifiable domains by using an LLM judge to score responses against a structured rubric. Prior work has focused on improving the rubric or strengthening the single judge, with comparatively little attention to how different single or multiple judges might b...

Language Models Share a Readout Bottleneck in Working Memory

Large language models (LLMs) reproduce a human working-memory signature on the N-back task: performance declines as memory load N increases, and errors concentrate on lures, items that repeat the current stimulus at a neighboring but incorrect serial position. We ask whether this shared behavioral signature reflects a...
