Text-to-SQL models are commonly trained to map questions directly to static queries, whereas real-world database agents operate through stateful, multi-turn interaction with live databases -- inspecting schemas, executing probe queries, diagnosing errors, and revising hypotheses. This creates a critical train-deploy mi...

Wearable augmented reality (AR) assistants are moving toward continuous real-world interaction, where they perceive the user's activity through first-person video and audio and provide timely spoken guidance without being explicitly asked. While proactive video assistants, spoken dialog systems, and egocentric task und...
Large language model (LLM) routing distributes inference work across different models, advancing the cost-quality Pareto frontier of LLM serving. While coarse-grained routing at the session or query level has been widely adopted in production systems, recent algorithmic work shows that fine-grained token-level routing...

AI research agents automate the cycle of proposing, implementing, and evaluating experiments, opening a path toward recursive self-improvement. Yet their ability to propose experiments outpaces their capacity to execute them in real environments, making outcome prediction a key capability for sustained self-improvement...

It is found that tokenizer choice matters more for languages with less language-model training data: across the 54 tokenizers, the standard deviation of a language's bits-per-byte (BPB) increases as its model training-data share decreases.

Automated methods have been proposed to overcome the limitations of human verbal deception detection, but evidence remains fragmented across disciplines. We systematically reviewed 25 years of research (289 reports, 6,136 classification models) and meta-analyzed 3,653 models nested within 97 datasets. Pooled accuracy w...

ILM, an interactive educational platform for Stories of the Prophets that combines Arabic natural language processing, structured knowledge representation, and retrieval-based question generation, demonstrates the feasibility of combining structured knowledge representation and retrieval-based generation to support int...
This paper provides a principled definition for the FOL-autoformalization task by distinguishing Ontology Extraction from Logical Translation and identifies open challenges in benchmarking, semantic evaluation, ontology-aware methods, and end-to-end applications.

Jev is a"System One"model that returns a choice among given options instead of generating text. We study how such a specialized decision model compares with general-purpose large language models (LLMs). We evaluate Jev on 13 multiple-choice benchmarks covering knowledge, reasoning, and multilingual understanding, and c...

The MiMo-V2.6 series is introduced, an omni-modal family that pushes the frontier of model intelligence by scaling RL compute by building infrastructure for mixed-task agentic RL, including a unified trajectory representation, high-concurrency multi-framework rollout, decoupled control and data planes, and training-inf...

Reliable multimodal interaction depends on selective use of conversational history: an earlier question may remain relevant while its previous answer is outdated, whereas a current request may depend on historical evidence despite conflicting new observations. Existing multi-turn evaluations rarely separate these histo...

For persistent and personalized conversational agents, memory systems can enable them to remember, update, and reason over long histories by storing past interactions and retrieving relevant information. Existing memory systems typically follow two paradigms: flat-structured memory and graph-based memory. The former is...

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.
