LLM-based multi-agent systems (MAS) have emerged as an effective paradigm for complex and long-horizon tasks. However, in real-world tasks, MAS often exhibit various failures during execution and such failures are difficult to eliminate during design. This motivates experience-driven MAS evolution, where a system impro...

Large language models (LLMs) increasingly rank products, documents, and recommendations for user queries, which makes manipulating these rankings a growing concern for fairness and information integrity. Research on generative engine optimization (GEO) has produced many manipulation methods, but each is evaluated on it...

For sparse, structured reinforcement-learning tasks with semantic reward-function interfaces, LLM-generated reward shaping is better framed as debugging than one-shot generation. We study PPO-trained agents using MiniGrid as core evaluation and MuJoCo reaching/locomotion as boundary stress tests. Our qualitative audit...

Large language models (LLMs) can hallucinate, but do model uncertainty estimators reliably reveal when they do? Although uncertainty estimators are increasingly used to identify unreliable generations, their relationship with hallucination remains poorly understood and is often taken for granted. We systematically eval...

Parametric knowledge in large language models (LLMs) is a cornerstone of their success, yet remains poorly understood. Existing knowledge benchmarks typically rely on predefined questions (e.g., "What is the birth date of M.L. King?"), evaluating only knowledge that benchmark designers explicitly choose to query, a pro...
Hybrid post-training combining supervised fine-tuning (SFT) and reinforcement learning (RL) is the standard paradigm for aligning large language models, yet fixed mixing schedules cannot adapt when the relative noise of the two signals evolves. We derive a noise-aware mixing weight mu* by minimizing an MSE upper bound...
Extracting MITRE ATT&CK techniques from cyber threat intelligence (CTI) reports is an open-set, multi-label problem requiring both high recall (not missing techniques) and high precision (not hallucinating unsupported ones). Existing rule-based, supervised, and LLM-based methods struggle to achieve both: rule-based and...

Third-party Python libraries introduce dependency-management overhead, supply-chain risk, and deployment friction. We study when eliminating a dependency preserves enough correctness and performance to justify the gains in footprint, deployability, and trust surface. Our testbed is zerodep, 44 single-file, stdlib-only...
Symmetry determines which physical responses of molecules and crystals are allowed and underlies many models used throughout the physical sciences. Yet several widely used machine-learned models learn symmetry only approximately from data, raising the question of whether approximate symmetry is sufficient for scientifi...

Training data attribution (TDA) should enable generative model interpretability and foster a variety of related downstream tasks. Nonetheless, current TDA approaches lack reliability and robustness, preventing their adoption in real-world setups. In this paper, we take a decisive step towards more reliable and robust T...

Scaling on-policy distillation (OPD) for large language models (LLMs) confronts a fundamental tension: asynchronous execution is necessary for system efficiency, but structurally deviates from the ideal on-policy objective. To address this challenge, we theoretically decompose the objective discrepancy into rollout dri...
Traffic sensor data exhibit strong temporal and cross-sensor dependencies, yet long gaps erase both a sensor's local history and the joint observations needed to learn its relationships with other sensors. We introduce MoHL, a mixture of hypergraph Laplacians that learns group-wise relational structure directly from in...
