Rule decisions such as content moderation, advertising compliance, and eligibility checks combine several conditions, exemptions, and missing-information cases, and an error can be fixed only once the failing condition is known. We introduce SemTree, a framework that represents a rule decision as a semantic decision tr...
This paper proposes a hybrid reinforcement learning trading framework integrating intraday market data with transformer-based financial sentiment signals. The system extracts sentiment dynamics and semantic event clusters from financial news and incorporates them into a PPO-based trading agent. Experiments on intraday...
Concept representations in diffusion models drift across network depth and denoising time, yet existing sparse autoencoders offer only per-block or per-timestep dictionaries, leaving no single feature dictionary for localization and intervention in the network. We present Shared Sparse Autoencoder (SharedSAE), which le...
Reinforcement learning with verifiable rewards improves mathematical reasoning when a final answer can be checked, but a correct answer does not certify the derivation behind it, and proof problems offer no answer to check. Replacing the check with a reasoning model as an in-loop verifier faces a fundamental obstacle:...

Post-training large language models (LLMs) on two-player zero-sum games provides a verifiable reward, and the gains have been shown to transfer to general reasoning. Existing pipelines, however, rely on a handful of hand-written games and on advantage estimators tied to them, so both the supply of games and the advanta...

Flow matching learns how to transport noise toward data, but its mean prediction does not directly report the endpoint uncertainty remaining at an intermediate state. This paper introduces Posterior Flow Matching (PFM), a general generative modeling framework that learns conditional velocity means and componentwise var...

Self-evolving agents improve through repeated cycles of modification and evaluation. However, existing methods receive feedback on modifications only after costly evaluations, and aggregate scores may obscure distinctions between failures that require different repairs. We introduce predictive self-evolution through an...

Predicting cellular responses to chemical and genetic perturbations is a central test for AI virtual cells, yet many single-cell models reduce each condition to an average expression shift. This target is misaligned with perturbation biology: rare states, resistant subpopulations, and context-dependent effect sizes may...
Grokking-the phenomenon where validation accuracy of neural networks on modular addition of two integers rises long after training data has been memorized-has been characterized in previous works as producing sinusoidal input weight distributions in transformers and multi-layer perceptrons (MLPs). We find empirically t...
The widespread adoption of generative AI has generated diverse opinions, with individuals expressing both support and criticism of its applications. This study investigates the emotional dynamics surrounding generative AI by analyzing human tweets referencing terms such as ChatGPT, OpenAI, Copilot, and LLMs. To further...
Multi-objective molecular optimization is a critical process in drug discovery that aims to modify a given molecule to simultaneously improve multiple properties while maintaining a similar overall structure. This process often requires iterative modifications guided by computational or experimental feedback. Recent la...

This study investigates Physical Recursive Self-Improvement (Physical RSI), in which physical experience guides lasting updates to both a robot's capabilities and its improvement procedure, making subsequent improvement more effective across tasks.

A machine-learning approach called CheMeleon provides a practical way to develop new drugs or other molecules with much less detailed, expensive experimentation.
Research Manager Mike Walker reflects on a career spanning hacker culture, cybersecurity, and AI, sharing lessons about trust, teamwork, leadership, and why solving difficult problems requires curiosity, judgment, agility—and an understanding of the rules. The post Learn the rules: The hacker mindset appeared first on Microsoft Research.
