RetroPlanner: Multi-Route Expansion and Multi-Objective Reasoning for LLM-Based Retrosynthesis Planning

Multi-step retrosynthesis planning is often considered solved once a route to purchasable starting materials is found, but such a route should also be practical in real-world chemistry. Recent LLM-based planners formulate this process as sequential decision-making over an AND-OR graph, yet typically expand a single mol...

Efficient Multi-Agent Reasoning via Confidence-Guided Adaptive Debate

Multi-agent debate has shown promise for improving the reasoning of large language models, yet recent theory suggests its benefits are highly regime-dependent. While interaction can amplify informative signals under corrective conditions, symmetric debate dynamics are neutral in expectation, often making majority votin...

agent-risk: Risk Assessment for Changes to AI Agents

Before changing a deployed AI agent (a stricter safety gate, a new model), organizations must approve the change, starting from existing logs. Extending classical risk analysis to partial records and partial changes to running systems, agent-risk replays logged episodes, assuming nothing else changes and the agent does...

Hardware-Friendly Token-Group Activation Quantization for Low-Bit Mamba Super-Resolution

Mamba-based super-resolution models are efficient alternatives to Transformer-based restoration backbones, but their low-bit post-training quantization remains challenging because selective scan, Mamba's input-dependent state-space operator, induces different activation ranges across spatial tokens. Thus, a single laye...

Interactive 4D Volumetric Liquid Forecasting under Moving-Solid Interaction

We propose the task of Interactive 4D Volumetric Liquid Forecasting: predicting the spatiotemporal evolution of a future dense 3D liquid velocity field conditioned on how a solid object moves through it. This task provides an upstream physical forecasting primitive for systems that need to reason about motion-condition...

Beyond Single-Pathogen Forecasts: Predicting Shared Respiratory Hospital Burden from Influenza, COVID-19, and RSV

Co-circulating influenza, COVID-19, and respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) create a shared hospital-admission burden, because beds, staff, testing capacity, and respiratory support are allocated to total demand rather than to one pathogen at a time. This makes respiratory forecasting a target-construction problem as wel...

Understanding and Reducing Misalignment in Persuasion Optimization

Frontier models are now trained for complex multi-agent tasks, from running a company to engaging in negotiations. These tasks necessitate training models to be persuasive. But what does this optimization pressure mean for model alignment? In this work, we study how reinforcement learning (RL) training for persuasion a...

Comparative Study of Canvas- and Coordinate-Based Geometry-Conditioned Neural Networks for Real-Time Prediction of Indoor Environments with Varying Room Dimensions

Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) is computationally expensive for iterative building design. Deep learning surrogates offer faster predictions, but generalization across varying room dimensions remains challenging. This study compares two geometry-conditioned neural network surrogate models for rapid indoor airflow a...

History Replays Itself: Unleashing Long-Context Capability in Linear Attention

Linear attention promises the efficiency needed for long-context language modelling, yet its fixed-size recurrent state must simultaneously support ongoing computation and preserve information from an ever-growing history. This coupling has reinforced a prevailing view that the state's memory capacity defines the model...

TRACE: Temporal Risk Assessment and Concept Editing for Safer Language Generation

Large language models (LLMs) can produce harmful content while generating a response. A useful safeguard should not only detect this risk during generation but also intervene while leaving safe responses largely unchanged and provide an auditable record of the internal patterns supporting its decisions. We propose TRAC...
