Learning Scientific Trajectories to Predict Future Biomedical Discoveries

AI co-scientists have expanded the use of large language models for generating scientific hypotheses and guiding experimental investigation. Here we investigate whether temporal patterns in the semantic representations of complete biomedical conclusions can guide hypothesis generation. We introduce ForeSCITE, a framewo...

Do Audio LLMs HEAR Pain? Tracing Acoustic Evidence from Speech to Language Reasoning

Large audio language models (LALMs) can process speech directly, but it remains unclear how well they use the non-lexical acoustic information that speech carries. We study this question through pain, using TAME-Pain, which contains pain-neutral Harvard sentences and spoken pain ratings recorded at different self-repor...

Persona Learning from Feedback for Personalized AI Assistants

Personalizing AI assistants requires adapting their behavior to users' preferences and task contexts. Existing work elicits assistant personas through persona prompting or finetuning on persona-conditioned generations. However, persona descriptions alone do not identify what to change or preserve in a particular respon...

Benchmarking decision models against generative large language models on medical multiple-choice questions

Decision models offered resource advantages alongside lower peak accuracy; generative large language model configurations offered resource advantages alongside lower peak accuracy; selecting models for medical workflows requires considering probability quality and repeatability together with accuracy and the resources...

RoleFUZZER: User-Behaviour Fuzzing for Role-Specification Adherence in Large Language Models

This work proposes user behaviour fuzzing, a guided search over plausible user behaviours that can lead a model to violate its role specification, and introduces RoleFUZZER, a framework that adapts coverage-guided fuzzing from software testing to operationalise the search.

LLMs as Judges and Examinees for Medical Item Difficulty Prediction

Predicting medical item difficulty from item text alone remains challenging. Prior work has largely relied on linguistic features or text representations derived from general-purpose and domain-specific language models, but predictive performance has remained modest. This study takes a different approach by using diffi...

Manifest-Assisted Retrieval in Artificial Intelligence Search: Evidence Gaps and a Security Evaluation

The external sources retained in our non-systematic audit did not isolate the incremental security or utility effect of consuming /llms.txt while ordinary retrieval remained fixed. The initial audit covered 39 sources through August 16, 2026, with later targeted updates through October 14. A purposive 15-tool study obs...

Statutory Article Retrieval from Arabic Judicial Narratives: Family Law and Law of Evidence in Saudi Arabia

Reliable legal information retrieval must ground legal reasoning in authoritative statutory sources. In Arabic judicial settings, long factual narratives must be mapped to concise articles that express abstract legal rules, creating a narrative-to-legal-rule abstraction gap. Using a benchmark of 200 synthetic Saudi Ara...

EPSBench: Benchmarking LLM Agents for Earnings Forecasting

Quarterly earnings forecasting requires an agent to connect financial evidence to the income-statement line items that produce a company's reported earnings. We introduce EPSBench, a benchmark for studying this ability across 149 firm-quarters from 86 US companies. Agents read a fixed collection of filings, earnings-ca...

Cross Lingual Abstractive Summarization for Marathi

Text summarization is an important task for advancing natural language processing (NLP) research and applications in Indic languages. Despite progress in extractive and abstractive summarization, both monolingual summarization (MS) and cross-lingual summarization (CLS) remain relatively underexplored for these language...

Scaling Lean Theorem Proving for Real-World Code Verification

EasyProver is presented, a Lean proving system built from recursive agents with isolated contexts, asynchronous search, parallel tactic probing, and an elastic elaboration service, and Aegis is introduced, which converts competitive programming problems into much harder verification tasks over real implementations.

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.
