WFM: Wiki Foundation Model for Complex Agentic Reasoning

Real-world agents fundamentally require persistent non-parametric knowledge for dynamic reasoning, i.e., long-term memory and retrieval-augmented generation. While graphs have shown reliable advantages in providing structured evidence, the sparse graph representations naturally restrict machine readability and semantic...

Time-Aligned Evolving Concept Graphs for Scientific Relation Forecasting

Forecasting scientific relations can guide discovery by identifying promising connections before they emerge. Existing approaches often model concept semantics and graph structure separately or summarize semantics over coarse historical snapshots, leaving semantic representations potentially misaligned with rapidly evo...

Symbolic Temporal Supervision of LLM Agents Using Contracts

Large language model (LLM) agents augmented by tools can automate complex, multi-step tasks, such as web navigation, code generation, and workflow orchestration, by acting on external systems through tool calls. However, hallucinations, distributional instability, and adversarial manipulations in LLMs, and the irrevers...

Designing Agentic AI Workflow Portfolios under Imperfect Selection and Compute Cost

Agentic AI systems often approach the same task through multiple workflows that differ in reasoning strategy, verification structure, and compute cost. A natural deployment policy is to use the workflow with the highest average performance, but this can be suboptimal because different workflows may succeed on different...

AutoTuneBench: Trustworthy Measurement for Agent Auto-Tuning of LLM Serving Engines

Large language model agents tune GPU kernels and serving engines through a closed loop of propose, measure, and keep, but the measurements behind this loop are not trustworthy. We characterize four failure modes from a four-day pilot corpus of 619 model calls: strawman baselines manufacture speedups, absolute times do...

When Is Graph Structure Worth Its Cost? The Case for Structure Pricing in Retrieval-Augmented Generation

Graph-based retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) can help answer questions that require information from many documents. However, building a graph often requires many language-model calls during ingestion. It is therefore important to ask whether its quality gains justify the additional cost. We present EffiRAG, a grap...

Decodability is Not Causality: Dissociating Probe Readouts from Behavioral Drivers via SAE Decomposition

Linear probes can decode safety-relevant concepts such as truthfulness from language-model activations, but probe accuracy may show only decodability, not that the features the probe weights causally drive model behavior. We demonstrate that this gap cannot be closed from the geometry of probe weights alone: the featur...

Teaching AI, Robotics, & Community: A Hubs-Based K-12 Education Framework for Reaching Rural Schools

K-12 robotics and AI education remains difficult to scale, especially in rural regions lacking sustained technical mentorship. Programs like FIRST provide competition pathways and instructional opportunities, but they do not eliminate the need for local programming and robotics expertise. We introduce AI, Robotics, & C...

The Other Half of the Memory Wall: Serving 35B MoEs from SSD with Trained Routing Prediction

Mixture-of-experts (MoE) inference on consumer hardware is bounded by weight memory: a 35B-class model is 19.5GB at 4-bit, and sparsity shrinks the compute per token, not the bytes that must be held. Naive offloading to SSD does not help on its own, because layer N+1's experts must be chosen before layer N's output exi...

Anchoring What Matters: A Dual-Level Learning Framework for Visually-Grounded Multimodal Reasoning

Reinforcement learning with verifiable rewards (RLVR) has significantly improved the reasoning capabilities of large vision-language models (LVLMs). However, standard on-policy RLVR algorithms face a critical optimization bottleneck in preserving and reinforcing visually grounded reasoning behaviors: valuable visually-...

Missing Bridges: Composition-Aware Active Imitation Learning

Active imitation learning reduces expert effort by allowing a learner to request the demonstrations it needs. Existing methods typically select these requests for their expected information gain about the expert policy. In structured multi-task domains, however, the number of start-goal tasks may grow combinatorially d...

Multimodal Conditioning of Fine-Tuned Stable Diffusion XL for Controllable and Culturally Faithful Ulos Motif Generation

The traditional Batak Ulos weaving industry faces growing challenges in producing diverse, innovative motifs due to limitations in conventional, manually driven design methods. This study proposes a multimodal generative framework integrating a fine-tuned Latent Diffusion Model (Stable Diffusion XL v1.0 via LoRA) with...
