The results suggest that generative engine optimization (GEO) should be studied not only as a security risk, but also as an emerging marketing practice that shapes market competition.
World model has emerged as a powerful paradigm in artificial intelligence, enabling agents to represent their environments, predict future states, and evaluate possible actions before acting. However, existing world models have largely been developed for visual or physical domains such as computer vision, robotics, gam...
Feature engineering remains a cornerstone of tabular data analysis, and Large Language Models (LLMs) have emerged as a promising paradigm for its automation, giving rise to LLM-powered Automated Tabular Feature Engineering (LATTE). However, the field lacks standardized, cost-aware evaluation platforms, and the combinat...
On-policy distillation (OPD) has become a central post-training tool for large language models (LLMs), providing dense per-token teacher supervision along the student's own rollouts. In this work, we identify a common structural cause underlying OPD, which we call prefix failure. Under prefix failure, dense per-token s...

Single-edit updates in large language models can trigger ripple effects across local knowledge neighborhoods: desirable propagation to related facts and unintended perturbation of preserved ones. Existing methods address these two effects separately, without explicitly modeling their coupling. We challenge this separat...

LLM-based Web agents are increasingly deployed on edge servers to carry out long-horizon tasks on behalf of users with low latency. However, the lightweight models that fit on edge servers often struggle with long-horizon tasks that require persistent memory, subgoal tracking, and reflection. Fine-tuning edge models af...

Language model reasoning traces are rarely all-or-nothing; they frequently contain valid intermediate steps before a critical error occurs. Existing uncertainty quantification methods typically certify final answers or entire responses, failing to provide statistical guarantees for the proportion of a sequential trace...

Sparse Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) models scale model capacity through sparse activation, but storing their full parameters remains costly in GPU memory. Existing expert compression methods address this problem through pruning, merging, or substitution, typically coupling expert pool construction with the assignment of ro...

TADDLE is introduced, a Tool-Augmented Agent for Detecting Deficient LLM-Generated Peer Reviews, together with the first expert-annotated benchmark for this task, and experiments show that TADDLE performs strongly on binary detection and the multi-label classification task.
Current AI energy benchmarks measure consumption per model invocation. For agentic systems, where a single user goal may trigger multistep orchestration, tool calls, retries, and failure recovery, the invocation count is an implementation artifact rather than a task property, and per inference normalization misrepresen...

This work investigates knowledge-driven, large language model (LLM)-based storytelling for older adults. We present a reflective storytelling agent integrating knowledge graphs, user modelling, and argumentation theory to guide person-tailored narratives. Argument mining supports inspection of argument structure, while...

Reinforcement learning from verifiable rewards (RLVR) has improved the reasoning capabilities of large language models (LLMs), yet existing approaches predominantly rely on sparse outcome-level feedback, posing a substantial credit-assignment challenge in long-horizon agentic tasks. In this work, we study structured ag...
