Language-model agents that run long tasks often redo work they have already done: they re-issue a tool call they made earlier and get back exactly the same observation, a step that adds no new information. We identify this failure as a loop. Loops appear natively in Qwen, Llama, and Gemini agents and become far more co...

DANGERLENS is introduced, a probe that maps hidden states into vocabulary space and uses blinded semantic judgments to distinguish harmful goals and operational means from hazard recognition and safety control and introduces a direct audit of intermediate representations.

As large language models become widely used in scientific review and manuscript revision, AI scores are increasingly serving as feedback for assessing paper quality and guiding edits. Yet whether a single AI score reliably reflects the reviewer's judgment, and whether revision gains based on that score are endorsed by...

Minimax optimization refers to a class of optimization problems with some variables to minimize and other variables to maximize. Biased stochastic gradient methods have shown practical success in solving minimax problems to either improve robustness, enhance communication efficiency, or decrease computational costs. Th...

Generative approaches to automatic International Classification of Diseases (ICD) coding use large language models (LLMs) to predict ICD codes from clinical documents. However, original ICD code strings are not ideal generation targets because the ICD hierarchy does not always reflect clinical relationships, and LLMs s...
Model routing can reduce the cost of LLM applications by assigning simpler requests to cheaper models without sacrificing the quality of the response. However, most routers treat requests as independent. Stateful agents do not operate under this assumption: a user turn may require multiple model and tool calls, its dif...

Vision-language models (VLMs) can reason about visual planning tasks, but querying them for every instance incurs repeated inference cost and latency. Generating reusable planning programs offers an alternative, but constructing reliable planning systems for new problem domains without extensive supervision remains cha...

Frontier AI agents increasingly act in environments where seemingly solvable tasks may lack prerequisites, contain conflicting requirements, or reveal blockers only during execution. We formulate agentic self-awareness (ASA) as the alignment of task-grounded feasibility judgments (know), warranted behavior (act), and r...

LLM-based auto-formalization systems can now generate formally verified Lean code at unprecedented rates. However, a formalization advances mathematical research only when further mathematical results can be built on it, especially when its definitions and helper lemmas are general enough to be imported and used idioma...

Operational reporting for high-performance computing (HPC) facilities requires combining information from monitoring services, schedulers, incident and maintenance records, storage measurements, periodic reports, and operator investigations. Producing a reliable report requires more than retrieving relevant records: th...

Understanding how large language models (LLMs) evaluate gameplay experience is important for using their feedback to guide game design. However, overall ratings alone provide limited insight into which aspects of experience are associated with these judgments and how they can inform concrete game changes. We introduce...
This work develops a framework for reverse-engineering why a given set of agents engage in a particular set of cooperation-related behaviors and argues that many different mechanisms can often produce similar observed behaviors and introduces a set of experimental designs along with conditions under which they can succ...
