Existing teleoperation systems are often tailored to specific robot hardware and task domains, limiting their scalability and adaptability. We present ModPack, a modular and extensible teleoperation system designed to support diverse robot embodiments and task requirements within a unified framework. At the core of Mod...

OptCar (Optimized Car), a recipe for bridging the gap from generalist to specialist FKD models that preserves cross-terrain generalization while optimizing performance for a specific vehicle, is presented.

Robot policies inevitably encounter failures when deployed in real environments. Naive retries often repeat the same mistakes, while many existing recovery methods rely on human intervention. In this paper, we propose Failure-Aware Retry (FAR), a framework that enables robots to learn from previous failures at test tim...
Backdoor attacks pose a serious threat to large language models (LLMs) by causing otherwise benign systems to produce attacker-specified malicious behavior when a hidden trigger is present. In this work, we study post hoc detoxification of backdoored LLMs in a practical setting where the defender has access to the pois...

Computational reproducibility remains difficult despite being central to scientific research. In this paper, we show how the international FABRIC testbed, combined with a large language model (LLM) coding agent through LoomAI, can simplify reproducing published experiments across multiple domains. We reproduced three c...

Hydraulic-conductivity inversion is ill posed: even complete head observations can leave structural ambiguity. Geological text descriptions can supply additional information about subsurface structure to constrain reconstruction. However, it remains unclear when descriptions improve reconstruction and how solvers use t...

In this paper, we use random walks on graphs as a verifiable sandbox for studying parallel sampling strategies in masked diffusion models (MDMs). We train an MDM on random walk samples from a fixed graph. The graph and transition kernel are never shown to the model and serve as latent structure that is both controllabl...

Applying pre-trained language models to new domains through full fine-tuning is computationally expensive and prone to catastrophic forgetting. To address this limitation, we introduce a novel parameter-efficient strategy for unsupervised domain adaptation that combines a custom PEFT architecture with mixed-objective t...

Robotics are expected to support environmental monitoring and disaster detection, where decisions must be made under uncertainty, resource limitations, and strict operational constraints. In critical missions, such as wildfires, robots must not only identify hazardous events with sufficient confidence, but also manage...

LLM-based Agents are becoming increasingly capable and widely deployed, creating growing incentives for adversarial misuse in the real-world. A key emerging threat is Decomposition Attacks \cite{glukhov2024breach, jones2024adversaries} in which a harmful task is broken into simpler, benign subtasks that evade safety me...

Agentic search systems must coordinate evidence acquisition and response generation, yet existing approaches either couple both roles under a single agent objective or decompose them without disentangling their respective contributions to the final outcome. We introduce DAC (Divide and Cooperate), a role-decomposed tra...
