LSPO is introduced, which establishes this finite, cost-adjusted transition as the primary unit of learning, and each textual answer is augmented with a learned continuous coordinate, forming a lifted state that an energy function evaluates and orders.
Large language models increasingly generate multiple retrieval actions jointly, while downstream systems often provide only one reward for the resulting set. Broadcasting this reward provides a valid score-function gradient estimator for the expected set-level objective, but does not determine a coalition-dependent wit...

In-context control of a model's own activations might not yet be a threat to activation monitors, but it exists in a few models and needs to be tracked as models evolve.

AtomSearch is introduced, which keeps revision actions local while using subsequent skill states to guide search, and shows how local rule edits can support the exploration of useful revision paths and yield compact skills, with additional offline evaluations used to explore alternative states.

Adapting a single vision-language model to medical image parsing requires training choices that reflect the demands of each task. We study task-specific adaptation with Qwen3.5-9B for FLARE 2026 Task 3, covering six task families and seven imaging modalities. Our system couples a shared, frozen 4-bit backbone with LoRA...

Training LLM agents on long-horizon interactive tasks with reinforcement learning typically relies on human-annotated tasks and reliable verification, both expensive to construct for stateful environments. Self-play offers an alternative, but must generate achievable, compositional tasks and provide feedback beyond bin...

Large language models are increasingly competent at leveraging scientific knowledge and existing computational tools to execute complex workflows. At present, little information exists on their ability to reconstruct tools when given limited descriptions of such tools. We introduce an evaluation titled ReproBAIT (Repro...

Video world models aim to simulate complex environments with realistic appearance and dynamics. Maintaining consistency over long interactions requires tracking past actions and understanding how those actions affect the environment. Video world models can only generate partial observations of the entire world at a tim...

The nature of improvement in each case is characterized: while recoverable concepts can be articulated through definitions and explanations, irrecoverable concepts cannot be transmitted, even with examples, and might require novel learning mechanisms.

Privileged Hindsight Distillation (PHD) is introduced, which uses later-emerging scientific evidence during training to improve proposal-time criterion assessment and the population mapping, while exposing only proposal-visible information at inference.

Large Language Model (LLM)-based agents have demonstrated remarkable capabilities in completing complex tasks through multi-step reasoning and tool interactions. However, recent studies have revealed that LLM-based agents can exhibit unfaithful behaviors, where their final reports fail to faithfully reflect their actua...

Simulated students let researchers test tutoring systems and teaching strategies before real learners are available, but only if the simulation reproduces where a particular learner succeeds and fails. The common approach asks a large language model to role-play a student, but a role does not model what this learner kn...
