Is Imagination Derived from Hallucination? A Cross-Taxonomy Evaluation of Imagination and Hallucination in Large Language Models

This paper proposes Whiteboard, the first LLM imagination evaluation benchmark, and investigates whether imagination derives from the same generative tendency as hallucination and what key factors shape it.

Read-Best Is Not Steer-Best: A Probing--Steering Layer Dissociation in Omni-Modal Large Language Models

Results show that probing accuracy is a poor heuristic for selecting intervention layers and suggest a cross-architecture mid-to-late selection criterion, and identify a cross-modal emotion subspace organized by valence and arousal.

Observational Equivalence of LLM and Human Annotation

It is argued that the central challenge of text annotation is no longer choosing between human and machine coders, but developing coding rules that minimize ambiguity and accounting for the ambiguity that remains, and it is proposed using disagreement across LLMs to identify difficult cases and refine codebooks.

Beyond Accuracy and Surface Fluency: Risk-Sensitive Evaluation of LLMs for Legal Clause Generation

Large language models (LLMs) are increasingly used to draft contractual language, yet conventional accuracy or preference-based evaluations are poorly matched to legal drafting. A clause may be fluent and stylistically polished while still omitting an essential carve-out, allocating risk in an unenforceable way, assumi...

Type-Driven Tokenization for Brahmic Scripts

Standard tokenizers used in large language models produce malformed text when applied to Brahmic scripts. They are a family of abugidas, writing systems whose consonants carry an inherent vowel that dependent marks can modify. They include Devanagari, Telugu, Tamil, Kannada, and others. The underlying issue is that the...

An Empirical Cost Attribution of Context-Compression Gateways in Multi-Turn Coding Agents

This work instrument a production compression gateway between coding agents and frontier LLMs, and decompose the token bill of real sessions into three independent levers: tool-schema filtering, content compression of file reads and tool output, and history summarization, which distill the results into an actionable re...

Privacy Personalization Trade offs in LLMs: The Impact of Stylometric Signal Reduction on User-Specific Text Generation

A controlled framework to isolate stylometric signals in LLM personalization using the LaMP-7 Twitter benchmark is introduced and shows that outputs conditioned on original profiles are nearly indistinguishable from human-authored ground truth, indicating that modern LLMs can closely reproduce an author's writing style...

DeepInstructor: An Agentic AI Instructor for Experience-Driven Idea Evaluation

This work proposes DeepInstructor, an agentic framework that formulates idea evaluation as reasoning over structured scholarly experience, and introduces DeepInstruct, a dataset with controlled pairwise comparisons across novelty, significance, and feasibility.

A framework for recipe data structure with applications for culinary and nutritional insights

Cooking is a complex process that transforms raw ingredients into delicious and nutritious dishes, yet the recipes that encode this process remain largely free text; readable by people but not directly computable. Existing recipe collections capture fragments of this information, but no shared representation links a re...
