Reinforcement learning (RL) for code agents often uses executable tests to provide binary rewards. With these rewards, Group Relative Policy Optimization (GRPO) assigns identical advantages to test-passing trajectories within each rollout group, overlooking differences in implementation quality and adherence to task re...

A new concept for designing corporate knowledge bases is proposed that integrates the probabilistic vector space of a corporate vocabulary, reflect-ing industry specifics, subject focus, terminology, and culture, with traditional ontological modeling, and enables the efficient extraction of knowledge from accumulated c...
Direct Preference Optimization (DPO) aligns language models by optimizing over sequence-level sums of token-wise implicit reward differences. However, we identify a pervasive pathology in this formulation: a disproportionately small subset of high-frequency token types dominates cumulative sequence scores while appeari...

Overall, the results show that targeted feature quality depends jointly on the model signal and estimator, with detection and intervention capturing complementary properties.
LT-OPD, a training framework for extreme visual-token reduction, is proposed and it is shown that on-policy learning can substantially recover capabilities lost to extreme visual-token reduction.

Agents that answer questions from compressed or retrieved memory must recognize when the evidence a query needs is no longer in memory. Benchmarks for this task usually create insufficient-evidence examples by deleting supporting passages. We show that this construction leaks the label through memory size: on MuSiQue,...

Language models are now routinely graded by other language models. If post-training makes a model's own writing more predictable, it may also teach the same model, acting as a judge, to reward predictable writing, so that progress on creativity would be invisible to automated evaluation. We follow two open model famili...
Gate thresholds are implemented as couplings to a constant the network builds for the distribution it is reading, with the bias parameters contributing little; how much of that constant is carried in the stream and how much in parameters depends on the architecture.
Only on MathNet-Retrieve could an inversion, benchmark score up and real retention down, to one edit of a training file be pined, and three trained models are released.

Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) introduces a specific failure mode in discrete diffusion language models: when retrieved context contradicts parametric knowledge, the iterative denoising process becomes a visible battleground between competing knowledge sources. We identify temporal semantic divergence as an obser...

This study links sentiment extraction, bounded response modeling, and anomaly detection in a unified framework for consumer complaint assessment and finds that negative sentiment intensity is not a sharp classifier of outcomes on its own; combined with monetary and categorical attributes, it isolates unusually severe c...
