In-Place Indic Tokenizer Expansion and Continual Pretraining of Nemotron-3-Nano-30B-A3B

We adapted Nemotron-3-Nano-30B-A3B for eight Indian languages without changing its backbone architecture. We expanded the vocabulary in place from 131,072 to 163,072 entries using continued byte-pair encoding and AdaptMix rebalancing, reducing tokens per word by 38.6%. We initialized new input and output rows by averag...

A Sovereign, Indic-First, Reasoning Model

Gnani-Evon-v3.3-30B-A3B is a long-context hybrid Mamba-Transformer mixture-of-experts model for reasoning, instruction following, and tool use in English and eight Indian languages. Starting from NVIDIA's Nemotron-3-Nano-30B-A3B checkpoint, it retains the 52-layer backbone and changes the vocabulary, training data, and...

North or South? Diagnosing LLMs'Understanding of North Korean Language, Society, and Knowledge

Large Language Models (LLMs) have made substantial progress in multilingual question answering, yet their ability to understand low-resource sociolinguistic contexts remains under-explored. We study North Korea as a unique testbed where decades of division have produced distinct differences from South Korea in vocabula...

Sequent-Prover: Training Agents for Formal, Checkable SMT-based Reasoning

We introduce Sequent-Prover, a family of verifier-using language-model agents, and the post-training framework that produces them. Agents reason in an executable SMT-LIB scratchpad: they write complete SMT-LIB programs, query Z3 across turns, inspect solver feedback, repair formalizations, and terminate with an explici...

PANINI-DR: Controlled Deep Research through Generative Semantic Workspaces

Deep research requires connecting multiple steps of search, reasoning, and computation, with intermediate findings guiding what to investigate next. As investigations grow, agents must maintain research state across model calls and check findings before errors propagate into subsequent work. We introduce PANINI-DR, a m...

Exploring Jailbreak Vulnerability Across Depth-Based Dynamic Inference in Large Language Models

This paper makes the following key observations: Shallow exits are consistently more robust to jailbreak attacks than deeper ones; Exit depth affects how easily the adversarial suffix can be optimized, with deeper exits reaching lower attack loss; and adversarial suffixes affect utility uniformly across exit depths.

UDHRBench: Benchmarking Human Rights in Large Language Models

Large language models are increasingly deployed in contexts requiring adherence to ethical and legal norms, yet their alignment with internationally recognized human rights standards remains underexplored. We introduce UDHRBench, a large-scale benchmark for operationalising the evaluation of large language model compli...

Have You Been Convinced? A Neuro-symbolic Argumentation Reasoning Approach to Detecting Persuasiveness in ChangeMyView Discussions

Argument structures represent how individual arguments interact within a discourse. However, leveraging these structures to infer meaningful knowledge remains challenging, as it requires a formal representation of how argumentative influence propagates across the structure. We propose Neuro-symbolic Argumentation Reaso...

Select or Rewrite: Oracle-Guided Fine-Tuning for Generative ASR Post-Editing from N-Best Hypotheses

Large language models can post-edit ASR by using linguistic context to compare N-best hypotheses and rewrite the transcript when needed, often improving WER without retraining the recognizer. However, prompt-only correction is brittle: it may over-edit when top-1 is correct and hallucinate when the reference is absent,...

Toward System One Clinical Intelligence: Parameter-Efficient Fine-Tuning and Counterfactual Explainability of Decision Foundation Models

Automated disease classification from patient-reported symptoms requires balancing the speed of lightweight discriminative models against the contextual understanding and latency costs of autoregressive large language models (LLMs). Decision foundation models offer an alternative by mapping representations directly to...

UltraBERT: Beyond the Limit of BERT Pre-Training

Recent bidirectional encoders have been modernized with innovations from causal large language models (LLMs). However, the pretraining recipe itself remains inherited from small-scale conventions, leaving encoders underoptimized, with no single model performing competitively across both classification and retrieval tas...

Vela: User Behavior as Supervision Sparks LLM Intelligence

Large language models are increasingly deployed in applications that act on users'long-term behavior histories, from personal assistants to recommendation and advertising systems. These applications demand the user dimension of LLM intelligence: inferring a person's preferences, intent, and likely future actions from w...

Proof-based general-purpose computing with Magnetar

Zero-knowledge proofs can verify computing results without rerunning workloads or exposing sensitive data. Magnetar helps bring them into the mainstream with support for standard programming languages, major speed gains, and quantum-resistant security. The post Proof-based general-purpose computing with Magnetar appeared first on Microsoft Research.
