Self-evolving agents are usually scored by endpoint Gain: held-out success after an update minus success before. That difference can credit a frozen rescore as evolution. We introduce Trace Evolution Bench (TEB), a protocol that separates that rescore from a context or weight update, together with three frozen 80/20/40...
Beliefs in a Partially Observable Markov Decision Process (POMDP) are posterior distributions over the hidden state given the agent's history of actions and observations. They summarize everything the history says about the state, so planning in a POMDP is planning in a Markov decision process (MDP) over beliefs. Belie...
Multi-environment POMDPs (ME-POMDPs) generalize POMDPs by encoding a finite set of possible environments, capturing model uncertainty. The finite-horizon robust reward maximization problem for a ME-POMDP asks for a policy that maximizes reward in the worst environment, and recent work has shown this problem to be $\mat...
Language models are frequently aligned to human preferences via imperfect evaluators whose errors can be exploited during optimization. We train policies to search for comparisons on which an evaluator may reverse the underlying preference, providing candidates for additional supervision. Since human preferences are un...

Choosing a few robust algorithms or schedules can require evaluating every candidate under many adverse scenarios, even though an agent only needs to identify the winners. A predictor may suggest those winners, but cannot rule out a surprise in an unevaluated scenario. We introduce Certified Adaptive Selection (CAS), w...
We present a generator of Thai klon pad verse, one stanza from a short topic, and evaluate it against human verse on held-out topics. The generator is a masked language model initialised from WangchanBERTa over a fixed canvas with two layers: a sound layer of pronounced syllables, where rhyme, tone and syllable count a...
With the rapid evolution of large language models (LLMs), there is an increasing demand for effective personalization techniques that can adapt model behavior to individual user preferences. Personalized LLMs must infer a user's query-dependent preferences from limited, heterogeneous, and evolving interaction histories...
Long-horizon agents must complete workflows in which later activities depend on earlier outputs and changes to shared state. A key challenge for evaluation is to expand task requirements and their dependencies while keeping tasks executable and outcomes verifiable. We introduce SkillHorizon, a benchmark that constructs...
Formulaic alpha mining seeks to discover executable expressions that capture predictive market signals in a vast, noisy search space. Recent LLM-based approaches use prompting, iterative search, or seed-factor evolution, leaving direct factor construction through policy learning less explored. To address this, we intro...
Activation steering has recently been used as a memory for skills: past experiences of an agent are stored as steering vectors and retrieved later. Facts and preferences about the user are assumed to need text instead. We test that assumption with a training-free activation memory beside a frozen LLM. The change an exp...
The Model Context Protocol provides a shared interaction substrate for the agentic web, allowing heterogeneous services to expose capabilities through a standardized interface. Learning to use this ecosystem entails a hierarchy of capabilities: tool-format skills, server-level transfer, and cross-server composition. We...
GRPO-style reinforcement learning has advanced vision-language reasoning, but its sequence-level rewards provide limited credit assignment for individual reasoning tokens. On-policy distillation (OPD) addresses this issue by providing dense supervision on student-generated trajectories, yet standard OPD assigns similar...
