Replayable Financial Agents: A Determinism-Faithfulness Assurance Harness for Tool-Using LLM Agents

Tool-using agents can repeat a final decision while changing their recorded execution. We introduce the Determinism-Faithfulness Assurance Harness (DFAH), a framework that distinguishes decision repeatability, trajectory agreement, and evidence-conditioned faithfulness. Task correctness requires separately qualified la...

A Survey of Agentic Reasoning for Large Language Models: Towards Recursively Self-Improving and Collective Agents

This survey synthesizes agentic reasoning methods into a unified roadmap bridging thought and action, and outlines open challenges and future directions, including personalization, long-horizon interaction, world modeling, scalable multi-agent training, and governance for real-world deployment.

Is Vibe Coding Safe? Benchmarking Vulnerability of Agent-Generated Code in Real-World Tasks

Vibe coding is a new software development paradigm in which human engineers prompt a large language model (LLM) agent to complete complex coding tasks with little supervision. Although vibe coding is increasingly adopted, is the generated code really safe to deploy in production? To investigate this question, we propos...

BreakFun: Jailbreaking LLMs via Object Instantiation under Simulated Code Execution

Large Language Models (LLMs) are widely used because they process structures, syntax and code well, but this same ability also makes them paradoxically vulnerable. We introduce BreakFun, a jailbreak method that frames a harmful request as code-execution simulation. The prompt gives the model a benign Python class defin...

SalQ-VLM: Fine-Grained Saliency-Guided Quantization for Vision-Language Models

This work proposes SalQ-VLM, an importance-aware PTQ framework that prioritizes salient tokens and suppresses redundant vision tokens during calibration, and derives a gradient-driven importance factor that captures token-level importance variance and is theoretically grounded in the relationship among loss perturbatio...

LongNovel: A Multi-Scale Benchmark for Hallucination Detection in Long-Context Novel Summarization

This study proposes LongNovel, a multi-scale long-context bilingual (Chinese and English) novel benchmark for hallucination detection and designs 8 hallucination types and employs a combination of Multi-Model Arbitration and Entity-Referenced Hallucination Generation to ensure both data authenticity and a balanced dist...

Who's Behind It? Annotating and Extracting Conspiratorial Actors from German Telegram Posts

Conspiracy theories commonly attribute important events to the actions of powerful and secretive actors. While computational research has largely focused on document-level analyses of conspiracy theories, less attention has been paid to identifying the actors that drive such narratives. We develop annotation guidelines...

You Frame It: How Conceptual Representations Shape LLM Detection and Reasoning about Antisemitism

It is found that fine-grained taxonomic representations substantially improve recall, while simultaneously reducing precision, which highlights both the potential and the remaining limitations of conceptually grounded LLMs for antisemitism detection and reasoning.

Rethinking Speech-LLM Integration for ASR: Effective Joint Speech-Text Training by Interleaving

Speech-LLM integration has shown promising results by leveraging extensive textual pretraining, yet its specific benefits for automatic speech recognition (ASR) remain unclear. We observe that as supervised ASR training data increases, the contribution of LLM priors becomes less evident, and simple speech-text joint tr...
