Timer-M1: A Multivariate Time Series Foundation Model via Learning Primitives

We introduce Timer-M1, a pretrained multivariate time series foundation model that learns with primitives for zero-shot forecasting. Across domains, time series share elementary temporal and relational patterns, termed primitives, yet differ in how these primitives manifest and evolve across different contexts. Despite...

Can Jev be Your Q or Policy in Reinforcement Learning?

Foundation models supply reinforcement learning (RL) with priors that mitigate its longstanding weaknesses in sample efficiency and transfer, but their token-by-token generation makes queries sequential and costly. Jev, a recently released decision model, generates nothing and returns calibrated, typed answers in a sin...

NanoProof: Open and Efficient Automated Theorem Proving in Lean 4

We introduce NanoProof, to our knowledge the first factorized execution-guided theorem prover in Lean 4 whose training data, extraction tooling, training pipeline, and weights are all released, making it end-to-end reproducible using open-source resources. To this end, we build and release a dataset of structured proof...

Sera: Semantic Representation Aggregation with Knowledge and LLM for Reliable and Interpretable Battery Health Forecasting

Battery state of health (SoH) forecasting is important for battery management, but remains challenging due to nonlinear degradation and heterogeneity across batteries. Existing data-driven approaches primarily use temporal models to learn from numerical battery time series, and higher-level degradation characteristics...

Compactness and Consistency: A Conjoint Framework for Deep Graph Clustering

Graph clustering is a fundamental task in data analysis, aiming at grouping nodes with similar characteristics in the graph into clusters. This problem has been widely explored using graph neural networks (GNNs) due to their ability to leverage node attributes and graph topology for effective cluster assignments. Howev...

Evaluating Local Language Model Agents for Reproducible Data Engineering: An Empirical Software Engineering Study of Mobility Workflows

Context: Large language model (LLM) agents are increasingly used as software and data-engineering assistants, yet evidence about locally deployable open-weight agents remains limited. Existing evaluations often emphasize textual responses or isolated code generation rather than the validity of complete engineering arti...

Conditional Residual Prediction: Improving Autoregressive Video Diffusion without a Bidirectional Teacher

Conditional Residual Prediction (CRP), a simple recipe for reducing a model's reliance on a condition: the model first predicts the target without the condition, and the condition may only add a residual on top of this prediction.

Generative Adversarial Loops

AI research progress can be viewed as the interaction between two processes: benchmark creation and method discovery. Historically, both were driven by human intelligence. However, recent advances in AI have accelerated automated method discovery, while automated benchmark creation has received comparatively less atten...

Zatom-2: Multitask Pretraining on Atomistic Data for Generative Modeling across Domains

Unified atomistic modeling has the potential to accelerate discovery in chemistry, materials science, and biology by bridging data-rich chemical domains and data-scarce biological contexts. However, existing generative approaches to atomistic modeling remain highly specialized to scientific disciplines (chemistry vs. b...

Closed-loop evaluation of LLM agents for embedded software development

Large language models (LLMs) are increasingly deployed as coding agents that edit files, run builds and tests, inspect execution results, and repair software iteratively. Embedded firmware is a demanding target because correctness depends on closed-loop behavior under sensing, timing, and safety constraints, not only o...

From Geometry to Generalization: Why Row Normalization Can Beat Adam and Muon

Different optimizers can fit the same training data while selecting classifiers with substantially different geometries, but whether this difference provably affects population performance remains unclear. We show that row-wise normalization can achieve strictly higher population accuracy than full-batch Adam, a proxy...

How to post-train on a surrogate: Envelope sampling mitigates reward hacking

This work proposes envelope sampling, a theoretically-grounded method for judge recalibration that seeks to minimize an upper bound on the regret of the post-trained model under the assumption that the human reward and re-calibrated reward lie in an $L^2$ ball around the judge.
