LLM agents are increasingly used to simulate real-world interactions, but it remains unclear whether simulated behaviors preserve the content patterns and interaction dynamics of real human behaviors. Existing evaluations often focus on individual comments or task performance, rather than whether simulated behaviors ma...

Vision-language models (VLMs) are increasingly used for scene understanding in autonomous driving, but robustness analysis often relies on task-agnostic embedding stability alone. We study whether corruption-induced embedding drift predicts changes in a task-aligned hazard score derived from CLIP image-text similaritie...
RAIL is introduced, a human-centric benchmark grounded in the Cattell--Horn--Carroll (CHC) framework, which formalises auditory cognition into five core capabilities, and develops them into structured evaluation tasks with principled data curation and human-aligned evaluation protocols.

On-device inference reduces exposure to remote infrastructure, but it does not establish privacy for an operating-system assistant that aggregates cross-application data, retains derived state, or delegates actions. We present a feature-boundary audit method for OS-integrated AI. It combines a taxonomy of six privacy-f...

Large language model agents use skills that package reusable instructions, code, and resources. Existing skill-injection attacks exploit trust in these packages by adding malicious content. As agents become more capable, however, they can skip unnecessary steps, inspect code, and reject unrelated actions. We introduce...

High-quality training data is essential to large language models (LLMs) and typically requires extensive and costly manual curation. Automatic data preparation systems support reusable operators and task-driven workflows, yet adapting these workflows to the desired data quality remains challenging. High-quality example...

Large language models can support medical question answering, but privacy, cost, and reliability still limit their clinical use in focused domains. Can rubric-based reinforcement learning bring a locally deployable model close to much larger systems? We study Group Relative Policy Optimization (GRPO) for heart-focused...

Proactive multimodal assistants must decide when guidance is needed and what to say, while tracking progress through extended procedures and helping users recover when they depart from the expected plan. Progress is limited by benchmarks that score isolated clips, cover narrow domains, or omit realistic deviations. We...

LLMs and agentic systems are increasingly deployed in social environments, making normative competence critical for safe and appropriate behavior. However, existing approaches either assess normative judgment in text alone or reduce it to choosing among a fixed set of candidate actions. We argue both are insufficient....

Deformable object manipulation (DOM) is challenging due to high-dimensional, partially observable states that evolve through long-horizon, topology-changing interactions with multiple valid manipulation modes. We introduce Instant-Fold, an in-context imitation learning framework for DOM. Given a single human demonstrat...

Adaptive patching has been proposed for time-series forecasting: allocate finer patches where the sequence looks locally informative. We compare three adaptive patching methods with tuned uniform counterparts that use one fixed patch size throughout the input, while preserving each method's backbone family and shared t...

How can a population of agents self-orchestrate and self-adapt into stronger collective intelligence without centralized control? Inspired by Friedrich Hayek's economic theory of decentralized coordination in markets, we study this question through an agent economy in which agents compete via auctions for the right to...
