From Copying to Composition: How Language Models Develop In-Context Learning

In-context learning (ICL) allows language models to adapt their behavior from instructions and demonstrations in a prompt, but accuracy alone does not reveal how contextual information controls their predictions. We study the acquisition and trainability of ICL with a controlled diagnostic that separates copying a near...

Revisiting Generative vs. Dense Retrieval: A Static Value Prior Reverses the Gap

Generative retrieval (GR) has emerged as a strong candidate generator for sequential recommendation as language models and semantic-item identifiers have improved. However, GR is not a uniformly stronger replacement of dense retrieval (DR) in online retail candidate generation. We examine their differences on two Amazo...

Smart Alone, Blind Together: Why Accuracy Fails to CertifyTheory of Mind in Multi-Agent Teams

Coordinators that act on what they infer about teammates are usually certified by the accuracy of those inferences. We argue that accuracy is the wrong certificate, for two reasons. First, the accuracy needed to act depends on what a wrong action costs, so the bar belongs to the deployment, not the module. Second, a mo...

Discovering Undisclosed Concepts in LoRA Adapters for Diffusion-Based AIGC Models

Low-Rank Adaptation (LoRA) has made diffusion model personalization affordable and widely shareable, but it also creates moderation risks when harmful or problematic content is not faithfully disclosed. Hence, it is desired to develop a mechanism that, given a LoRA adapter, discovers the concept it was trained to gener...

Beyond Equation Search: Conjecture-Guided Discovery with SCOPE and ClosureBench

Most symbolic regression methods optimize candidate equations, but improving an equation's fit does not establish whether its underlying scientific conjecture should be retained, revised, or rejected. A conjecture may admit multiple mathematical realizations, and similarly accurate equations may imply different explana...

The Agentic Scientist: Orchestrating Coding Agents for Automated Scientific (Co-)Discovery

Modern coding agents are fundamentally reshaping the role of human input for computational research: they write code, launch in silico experiments, analyze their results, and autonomously operate with ever-increasing time horizons. Despite these developments, fully autonomous research agents suffer from a limited ideat...

Following the Flow the Law Requires: Training Voice Agents to Transfer to Unseen Regulated Procedures in Debt Collection

Voice agents built on large language models (LLMs) now handle customer calls, but in regulated applications completing the task is not enough: the agent must follow a conversational flow set by law. In debt collection, it must confirm it is speaking to the debtor before mentioning the debt, identify itself and the cred...

Your Transformer Is Secretly Elastic

Scaling up transformers has produced models with broad capabilities, deployed across heterogeneous hardware and fluctuating workloads. Yet, model families offer only a few fixed sizes (e.g., S, B, L), forcing users to commit to a model based on hardware and latency constraints. This rigidity is often suboptimal under v...

Continuum Attention

We introduce Continuum Attention (CA), a causal Transformer attention operator that replaces discrete key and value lookup with integration over a continuous, piecewise linear memory curve. Each query induces an exponential relevance density along the curve. Integrating the density and interpolated values yields exact...

One Task, Many Interfaces: Simple Cross-Interface Consistency Training Improves LLM Agent Robustness

Post-training binds the competence of an LLM agent to the interface it was trained on. Semantics-preserving perturbations of that interface, such as renaming an action or changing the notation, leave the underlying task unchanged yet make the agent worse at it. Scoring each sample independently means interface randomiz...

Recovering Reliable Supervision via Critique-Guided On-Policy Distillation

On-policy distillation (OPD) trains a student model on its own rollouts with token-level supervision from a teacher, assuming that the teacher can reach a correct answer from any prefix the student writes. We call this property the recoverability of the teacher and show it fails on incorrect rollouts: the teacher follo...

Detection of Potato Plant Leaf Diseases using Convolutional Neural Networks

Potato is an important food-security crop in Ethiopia, but its production is affected by foliar diseases, particularly early blight and late blight. This study develops a lightweight convolutional neural network (CNN) to classify potato leaves into three categories: healthy, early blight, and late blight. The proposed...
