Test-time search can improve agent performance by exploring alternative actions and using a critic to select promising branches. We study this approach in terminal-based computer-use environments, which expose only a partial view of a large underlying state, and find that the Monte Carlo tree search (MCTS) configuratio...
Large language model (LLM) agents can keep scientific experiments running for months with little human supervision, but reliable autonomous research also requires scientific judgment. Evaluating scientific judgment is difficult because research decisions are open-ended and depend on project context. We construct Sci$\P...
Computational biologists increasingly delegate substantial analyses to AI agents in long-horizon, multi-turn sessions, yet most benchmarks of agents' bioinformatics capabilities pose a single short task with a single-shot prompt. We present OmicsBench, a long-horizon, multi-turn bioinformatics benchmark for AI agents....
Recursive self-improvement, in which AI systems build stronger AI systems, is one promising route to superintelligence. We study a weaker form that can be measured today: frontier agents post-training a small raw base model with public data, as a test of their research potential. We build Athanor, an open agent-native...

Tool-using language agents must revise prepared actions when evidence changes or authority is revoked. Selective withdrawal means suspending affected actions, preserving supported work, and resuming only after sufficient repair. We study supervised fine-tuning in NAQD-Env, a synthetic environment with explicit dependen...
Recursive Self-Improvement (RSI) has gained wide attention for its ability to work with limited data. In a proposer-solver loop, a proposer model writes training tasks and a solver model learns to solve them through reinforcement learning. Such loops have succeeded in mathematics and coding, where every answer can be c...
When every rollout for a problem fails, GRPO receives neither a successful exemplar nor a nonzero group-relative advantage, so it learns nothing from exactly the problems it most needs to learn. The failed reasoning can nevertheless suggest what to try next. We present Replay-Selected Hindsight Distillation (RSHD), whi...
Deep Reinforcement Learning (DRL) offers learned job selection for High-Performance Computing (HPC), but performance against heuristics alone does not establish value beyond action masking. Six DRL treatments are compared: Proximal Policy Optimization (PPO), Advantage Actor-Critic (A2C), and Deep Q-Network (DQN), each...
Large multimodal models have achieved remarkable progress by scaling model capacity and training on massive paired multimodal data. However, this paradigm introduces a fundamental bottleneck: aligned multimodal datasets are expensive to curate, difficult to scale across diverse modality combinations, and increasingly c...
Safety in agentic systems is inherently sequential: whether an action is safe depends on prior actions, tool outputs, information disclosures, and interactions among agents. Recent work has shifted agent safety guardrails from post-hoc trajectory-level assessment toward step-level action diagnosis and proactive risk pr...
Decision models answer typed questions about an input with one probability per option, computed in a single forward pass without generating text. Like the fast System 1 of dual-process theory, they answer at once, but their depth is fixed at training time, so they spend the same computation on easy and hard questions....
Online reinforcement learning (RL) with verifiable rewards has driven rapid progress in mathematics, coding, and tool use, but scaling this success to GUI agents remains challenging due to the high cost of interactive environments and the scarcity of realistic training tasks. We introduce MAI-Gym, an open all-in-one pl...
