LLMs can generate Lean specifications from task descriptions, but those descriptions are often underspecified or ambiguous and may omit verifier-relevant edge cases, yielding imperfect formal specifications. We study whether an elicitation agent (EA) can improve verifier-checked Lean specifications by seeking clarifica...

When the visual style of text is considered, a wide variety can be observed in font, color, and size. However, when a word is read, its meaning is independent of the style in which it has been written or rendered. In this paper, we investigate whether, and how, the style in which a word is visualized in an image impact...
Scientific discovery requires developing worthwhile hypotheses into practical investigations, yet learning from this evolving research process remains challenging. We introduce an operational definition of valuable and testable research hypotheses: evidence-grounded claims about consequential uncertainties, coupled wit...

Speculative decoding typically characterizes speedup by draft tokens accepted per verification round. Lossless verification preserves the target model's output distribution and thus expected completion length, making this metric a meaningful efficiency proxy. Relaxed (lossy) verification accepts tokens that lossless ve...

This work proposes Paired-Residual Subspace Removal (PRSR), a training-free inference-time intervention that steers LLM representations toward a more language-invariant semantic space and demonstrates that PRSR consistently improves the performance of existing training-free baselines in both monolingual and cross-lingu...

Speculative decoding has become a mainstream technique for accelerating large language model (LLM) inference by using a lightweight draft model to generate candidate tokens that are subsequently verified by the target model. However, agentic workloads introduce long and continuously evolving contexts and frequent multi...

The Italian legislative process is documented in detailed parliamentary records hosted in institutional websites. However, much of this information is available only as unstructured text, limiting its systematic reuse. We applied a controlled, systematic LLM-based extraction procedure, validated against manually annota...

Publication count is not study count. A model can identify shared trial lineage correctly in a direct task yet over-credit a second publication from the same trial when aggregating evidence. We evaluate this behavior in medical LLM verification using 14 source-audited clinical families and five model conditions. The fa...

Although linguistic differences between human-written and Large Language Model (LLM)-generated texts have been extensively studied, their implications for the cognitive effort involved in reading remain less explored. In psycholinguistics, reading time is commonly used as an indirect measure of cognitive processing eff...

Experiments show that structured behaviors outperform monolithic prompt optimization, while feedback-driven evolution and moderation further improve effectiveness and reduce downside risk, suggesting that agentic memory evolution supports interpretable and transferable product optimization.

Personalizing a language model requires knowing what a person values, which stays largely consistent across tasks. Yet most methods either learn task-specific preferences or place the user's profile in the prompt, where models struggle to act on it. We introduce VISTA (Value-Informed Steering and Targeted Acquisition),...
