Transformer-based models achieve state-of-the-art dependency parsing for high-resource languages, yet their advantage over simpler architectures in low-resource settings remains poorly understood. We evaluate four parsers---the Biaffine LSTM, Stack-Pointer Network, AfroXLMR-large, and RemBERT---across twelve typologica...

Scientific discovery is an extended process of ideation -- surveying prior work, forming hypotheses, and refining reasoning -- yet existing LLM research agents treat this phase as a brief preamble despite its central role in research. We introduce SciSense, a sensemaking-grounded framework that operationalizes ideation...

Distillation via reasoning traces exposes frontier models to adversarial third parties, who can bypass their guardrails and misappropriate their capabilities. Existing antidistillation defenses perturb the teacher's sampling distribution to hinder downstream student learning, but these perturbations also degrade the tr...

Graph Visual Question Answering (GVQA) for autonomous driving organizes reasoning into ordered stages, namely Perception, Prediction, and Planning, where planning decisions should remain consistent with the model's own perception. We present a comparative study of cross-stage context passing on DriveLM-nuScenes using t...
Aligned large language models (LLMs) remain vulnerable to adversarial manipulation, and their reliance on web-scale pretraining creates a subtle but consequential attack surface. We study Stealth Pretraining Seeding (SPS), a threat model in which adversaries distribute small amounts of poisoned content across stealth w...

Large language models (LLMs) have recently shown strong potential for generating project-level unit tests. However, existing state-of-the-art approaches primarily rely on execution-path information to guide prompt construction, which is often insufficient for complex software systems with rich inter-class dependencies,...

Computational social choice studies how conflicting individual preferences are aggregated into a collective decision, with applications to elections, AI evaluation/alignment, and recommendation systems. We focus on settings where $n$ voters (e.g., human evaluators or algorithmic benchmarks) each rank $m$ alternatives (...
Scaling humanoid foundation models is bottlenecked by the scarcity of robotic data. While massive egocentric human data offers a scalable alternative, bridging the cross-embodiment chasm remains a fundamental challenge due to kinematic mismatches. We introduce UniT (Unified Latent Action Tokenizer via Visual Anchoring)...
LLM-driven program evolution can discover high-quality programs, but high API cost and run-to-run variance hinder reliable progress. We propose TurboEvolve, a multi-island evolutionary framework that improves sample efficiency and stability under matched API-cost budgets. Inspired by multiple-offspring strategies in ev...

Search agents achieve strong question-answering performance through multi-turn interactions with search engines, with Group Relative Policy Optimization (GRPO) being a widely used training algorithm. However, GRPO-style algorithms still face several challenges in multi-hop search settings. First, correct intermediate s...

Continual reinforcement learning must balance retention with adaptation, yet many methods still rely on \emph{single-model preservation}, committing to one evolving policy as the main reusable solution across tasks. Even when a previously successful policy is retained, it may no longer provide a reliable starting point...
Claude Code is an agentic coding tool that can run shell commands, edit files, and call external services on behalf of the user. This study describes its architecture by analyzing the publicly available source code and comparing it with two independent open-source AI agent systems, OpenClaw and Hermes Agent, that answe...
