This work introduces ToolMLBench, a suite of executable tools for data inspection, code verification, and experiment diagnosis, together with an SFT and RL pipeline for learning their use, and measures how privileged context changes the likelihood of a sampled tool action and uses this difference as a turn-level reward...

FairDiff is proposed, a plug-and-play fairness-aware diffusion framework that achieves state-of-the-art performance while effectively mitigating the self-reinforcing Matthew Effect, highlighting its value as a general framework for DRMs.

FineSID is a unified quantization framework that moves beyond Top-1 assignment by enabling fine-grained gradient propagation across the entire codebook, effectively alleviating SID collisions and stabilizing training in large, high-dimensional codebooks.

RankBuffer is introduced, which maintains an ordered, query-specific buffer of previously judged responses as a reusable quality scale that achieves nearly on-par performance with the strongest ranking-based reward baseline while substantially reducing judging cost.

Modern agents increasingly rely on memories, tools, and execution logic, so their competence extends beyond model parameters. This shift exposes a limitation of conventional knowledge distillation, which asks how a student model imitates a teacher model. We define Agent Distillation as the persistent transfer of task-s...

Semantic-Scope Projected Evolution (SSPE) is introduced, which transfers the functional principle of gradient projection from parameter space to behavior space and establishes semantic projection as a promising principle for stable and adaptive self evolution of language agents.
DualTrack is presented, which couples pretrained speech and motion priors on a shared 12.5 Hz timeline, and achieves lower word error rate and full-motion Fr\'echet Gesture Distance, higher beat consistency and speech naturalness than the evaluated GELINA baseline.

Structural reasoning, the ability to recognize and make inferences over the relational structure between objects and concepts, is a hallmark of human cognition, yet prevailing methods often collapse relational topology into flat embeddings, cannot discover hidden structure and lack interpretability. We introduce Neural...
Retrieval-augmented fact-checkers often receive a reliability label, such as HIGH or LOW trust, for each evidence source. These labels should adjust the model's confidence and its decision to search for more evidence, while the verdict should follow the evidence content. We introduce TrustSwap, a counterfactual test th...

This work introduces SAKI (Supervision Allocation with KL-constrained Interpolation), which combines a KL-constrained teacher-guided rollout with maximal coupling and reuses realized accept/correction events to route token-level supervision.

Pretrained transformers use little of their depth to follow references in context. Thirteen base models reliably follow only 1.4-3.6 lines, and extra pretrained loops add little. A task-trained rank-8 LoRA at one early layer extends this computation with all model weights frozen. Qwen3-8B improves from 15.5% to 99% exa...
Query-agnostic streaming video understanding requires vision-language models to continuously compress an indefinitely growing visual stream into a bounded memory before future queries are known. The performance depends critically on the memory mechanism--what observations to preserve, how to represent and consolidate t...

Machine-learning networks can learn without detailed instructions from a designer. Those that do may offer insight into how the brain reorganizes itself during learning.
With $2.1 million funding from Google.org, the open-source Public Transit Intelligence Hub will unify public transit monitoring, operations, and passenger communication.
Professor Sherry Turkle’s new book, “Artificial Intimacy,” offers a withering critique of chatbots and the antisocial dynamics she believes they encourage.
