Internalizer: Portable Context-to-Parameter Mapping for Very Large Language Models

Hypernetworks that map a context directly to a LoRA adapter let a large language model carry that context in its weights, but prior work has demonstrated them only on base models of up to 14 billion parameters. We present the Internalizer, a state-of-the-art, portable Context-to-Parameter Mapping hypernetwork that gene...

Harness Evolution Hits a Ceiling: When Weight Training Should Begin

Improving a long-horizon LLM agent means evolving the harness around a frozen model or training its weights. We let a self-evolving harness make the system stronger first, then cross seed and evolved harnesses with base and trained weights to learn which gains the trained model keeps and which still need the runtime. W...

Who Verifies the Verifier? Co-Evolving Inspectable Graders with Self-Improving Agents

We changed the agent: did it actually get better? Every self-improving agent loop answers this hundreds of times, and every answer comes from a verifier. On open-ended tasks none exists, so the loop is handed a hand-written rubric or a bare LLM judge grading output from a model like itself, inviting reward hacking and...

UniData: Universal Multimodal Instruction Generation Pipeline

Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) are increasingly being applied in a wider range of real-world scenarios. However, due to the substantial labor cost, creating high-quality multimodal instruction datasets for MLLMs remains a significant challenge. Although some methods propose to generate instruction data, they...

RL-ARC: Calibrating Large Reasoning Models via Reasoning-guided Uncertainty

Language models (LMs) are commonly trained with Reinforcement Learning with Verifiable Rewards (RLVR) to enhance their reasoning capabilities. However, since RLVR does not explicitly account for calibration during training, it can lead to severe calibration degradation, including overconfidence. Recent calibration-awar...

GameCommBench: A Unified Benchmark and Type-Aware Evaluation for AI-Generated Game Commentary

Game commentary is an open-ended generation task requiring multimodal perception, strategic reasoning, and contextual knowledge. Existing AI-Generated Game Commentary (AI-GGC) studies remain fragmented across games, modalities, and evaluation protocols, while overlap-based or holistic evaluators fail to capture the fun...

Plan-and-Patch: Diffusion Language Models for Agentic Planning

Planning is increasingly important for long-horizon agents, where successful execution requires coordinating subgoals, tool use, and intermediate outcomes over many steps. Yet assumptions made during planning may be invalidated by the environment, tools may return unexpected results, or actions may fail. Effective agen...

An Explainable Header-Centric Framework for Large-Scale Semantic Table Interpretation and Data Quality Assessment

Knowledge Graph (KG) quality depends not only on downstream graph validation, but also on the quality of tabular metadata used before integration. In metadata-only Semantic Table Interpretation (STI), where cell values are unavailable, noisy, or unsuitable, column headers become a critical source of semantic evidence f...

A conceptual framework for ideology in online discourse beyond the left and right

Computational social science (CSS) has largely operationalized ideology along a single left/right partisan axis when studying online discourse. This approach obscures how people interpret and engage with more specific ideological formations related to race, climate, gender, and other domains. We introduce a framework t...

Collective Behavior of AI Agents: the Case of Moltbook

A large scale data analysis of Moltbook, a Reddit-style social media platform exclusively populated by AI agents, finds that AI collective behavior exhibits many of the same statistical regularities observed in human online communities, but also identifies key differences.

WaveScat: Wavelet Scattering Front-Ends with Self-Supervised Features for Speech Deepfake Detection

Existing front-ends for speech deepfake detection are primarily categorized into two types. Hand-crafted filterbank features are transparent but limited in capturing higher-level information. SSL features, in turn, lack interpretability and may overlook fine-grained spectral anomalies. We propose WaveScat, a novel fami...

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.
