Computational social choice studies how conflicting individual preferences are aggregated into a collective decision, with applications to elections, AI evaluation/alignment, and recommendation systems. We focus on settings where $n$ voters (e.g., human evaluators or algorithmic benchmarks) each rank $m$ alternatives (...
Scaling humanoid foundation models is bottlenecked by the scarcity of robotic data. While massive egocentric human data offers a scalable alternative, bridging the cross-embodiment chasm remains a fundamental challenge due to kinematic mismatches. We introduce UniT (Unified Latent Action Tokenizer via Visual Anchoring)...
LLM-driven program evolution can discover high-quality programs, but high API cost and run-to-run variance hinder reliable progress. We propose TurboEvolve, a multi-island evolutionary framework that improves sample efficiency and stability under matched API-cost budgets. Inspired by multiple-offspring strategies in ev...

Search agents achieve strong question-answering performance through multi-turn interactions with search engines, with Group Relative Policy Optimization (GRPO) being a widely used training algorithm. However, GRPO-style algorithms still face several challenges in multi-hop search settings. First, correct intermediate s...

Continual reinforcement learning must balance retention with adaptation, yet many methods still rely on \emph{single-model preservation}, committing to one evolving policy as the main reusable solution across tasks. Even when a previously successful policy is retained, it may no longer provide a reliable starting point...
Claude Code is an agentic coding tool that can run shell commands, edit files, and call external services on behalf of the user. This study describes its architecture by analyzing the publicly available source code and comparing it with two independent open-source AI agent systems, OpenClaw and Hermes Agent, that answe...

A proposed taxonomy organizes the research directions into five key problems that drive recent research development: feature enhancement, geometry awareness, model efficiency, augmentation strategies and temporal-aware models, and outlines future directions to address open challenges such as scalability, evaluation sta...
Visual Foundation Models (VFMs) such as the Segment Anything Model (SAM) have significantly advanced broad use of image segmentation. However, SAM and its variants necessitate substantial manual effort for prompt generation and additional training for specific applications. Recent approaches address these limitations b...

While decoupled control schemes for legged mobile manipulators have shown robustness, learning holistic whole-body control policies for tracking global end-effector poses remains fragile against Out-of-Distribution (OOD) inputs induced by sensor noise or infeasible user commands. To improve robustness against these per...

Long-context audio reasoning is underserved in both training data and evaluation. Existing benchmarks target short-context tasks, and the open-ended generation tasks most relevant to long-context reasoning pose well-known challenges for automatic evaluation. We propose a synthetic data generation pipeline designed to s...

Bin picking in real industrial environments remains challenging due to severe clutter, occlusions, and the high cost of traditional 3D sensing setups. We present Pickalo, a modular 6D pose-based bin-picking pipeline built entirely on low-cost hardware. A wrist-mounted RGB-D camera actively explores the scene from multi...

Mathematical reasoning in large language models has improved substantially with reinforcement learning using verifiable rewards, where final answers can be checked automatically and converted into reliable training signals. Most such pipelines optimize outcome correctness only, which yields sparse feedback for long, mu...
