$\tau$-Multilingual: Benchmarking Voice Agents Across Languages

Across 4,500 full-duplex calls and five voice configurations, Spanish, Portuguese, and Hindi remain within 3.2 task-completion points of English, but Korean and Mandarin fall by 14.7 and 8.4 points, respectively.

Less Uniform Discrete Diffusion is More Powerful and Scalable

Although uniform diffusion language models (UDLMs) represent a promising diffusion paradigm, scaling them remains challenging. We identify the core obstacle as an over-uniform training objective and condition-target confusion during sampling. To address these, we propose Less Uniform Diffusion (LUDI), a novel UDLM fram...

PrimeSeeker: Capability-Oriented Supervision for Deep Search Agents

Large language model search agents are often trained with synthetic questions whose difficulty is increased through larger evidence graphs, additional hops, and longer trajectories. These global properties, however, are only indirect proxies for the local retrieval capabilities required during search. To address this m...

How to Run Statistics over LLM Judges and Trust the Results: Calibrated Inference for Small-Sample AI Evaluation with evalstats

To help researchers understand how to run statistics over LLM judges responsibly, guidance and tooling for the statistical analysis of mixed human-AI judge designs are presented, and recommendations for what CI, p-value, and FWER correction methods to use for small-sample AI evaluations are derived, and researchers are...

Constructing Challenging Browser-Use Tasks by Controlled Environment Interventions

This paper evaluates six strong browser-use agents, three GUI-only agents that see only screenshots, and humans, evaluating the construction of challenging instances from tasks agents already solve, turning difficulty into a programmable property of the environment.

Lookahead-R: Budget-Aware Tool Retrieval via Execution-Centric Planning

Lookahead-R is proposed, a planning-based framework that reformulates tool retrieval as a resource-constrained sequential decision-making problem that introduces a lightweight execution-aware surrogate world model that jointly predicts tool execution success, latency cost, and semantic utility—without invoking real API...

TRACE: Deployable Tree-Relational Structure Enhancement for Oncology LLMs

TRACE is presented, a deployable tree-relational enhancement framework for oncology LLMs that separates expensive offline structure learning from lightweight online inference, and suggests that explicit, updatable medical structure is a practical path toward more accurate and auditable oncology LLM deployment.

Can Multimodal Large Language Models Generate and Detect Multimodal Social Media Fake News?

A multi-agent framework in which a story agent, an image agent, and a critic agent collaborate to produce fake social media posts that plausibly counter true news is introduced, providing a foundation for developing robust defenses against social media fake news.

When Successful Memories Mislead Embodied Agents:Memory Adaption For Task-Conditioned Execution

Memory Adaptation for Task-Conditioned Execution (MATE) is introduced, a deterministic post-retrieval procedure that converts trajectories into execution-oriented memory and supports memory adaptation as a distinct stage between retrieval and embodied execution.
