We propose Quantum Vision (QV) theory as a new perspective for deep learning-based audio classification, applied to deepfake speech detection. Inspired by particle-wave duality in quantum physics, QV theory is based on the idea that data can be represented not only in its observable, collapsed form, but also as informa...

Machine-translated data is widely used in multilingual NLP, particularly where native text is scarce. However, translated text differs systematically from native text. This phenomenon is known as translationese, and it reflects both traces of the source language and characteristic properties of translation itself. In t...
Current test-time scaling (TTS) techniques enhance large language model (LLM) performance by allocating additional computation at inference time, yet they remain insufficient for agentic settings, where actions directly interact with external environments and their effects can be irreversible and costly. We propose ART...

Knowledge probing quantifies how much relational knowledge a language model (LM) has acquired during pre-training. Existing knowledge probes evaluate model capabilities through metrics like prediction accuracy and precision. Such evaluations fail to account for the model's reliability, reflected in the calibration of i...

Named entity recognition (NER) is evolving from a sequence labeling task into a generative paradigm with the rise of large language models (LLMs). We conduct a systematic evaluation of open-source LLMs on both flat and nested NER tasks. We investigate several research questions including the performance gap between gen...
What happens inside a language model when alignment training conflicts with a cultural value it encodes? Across 16 MENA countries, 26 models, and 1.53M human survey responses, we show the answer is suppression, not erasure: at the moment of refusal, a model's internal logit distribution correlates with human survey dat...
Large language models (LLMs) process entire input contexts indiscriminately, which is inefficient when the information required to answer a query is localized within the context. We present dynamic context cutoff, a novel method enabling LLMs to self-terminate processing upon acquiring sufficient task-relevant informat...

This paper introduces OARelatedWork: a dataset for related work generation from open-access sources. It is the first large-scale multi-document summarization dataset for related work generation, containing whole related work sections and full texts of cited papers. Its validation and test splits are constructed so that...

Recent advances in automatic pronunciation assessment (APA) have driven a shift from scripted to free-form assessment. However, existing methods often rely on multi-stage pipelines with forced alignment and separate feature extractors, limiting their practicality across response settings. In light of this, we propose O...

Large language models (LLMs) are now a standard source of query expansion terms but they hallucinate. They inject non existent entities and off-topic terms that add ranking noise and can hurt strong retrievers. Existing remedies such as corpus grounding, mutual verification and preference alignment treat hallucinated t...

How well can vision-language models (VLMs) reason about what is missing from an image? We study this question with OccludeBench, a manually curated benchmark for recovering fully occluded objects from the visual evidence that remains. OccludeBench distinguishes direct cases, where the hidden object must be recovered fr...

Professional agents increasingly work through command-line interfaces and multiple tools over shared workspaces containing files, messages, and business applications. These environments create safety risks that are difficult to capture with attacks placed at a single, known read location. We introduce APEX-Harm, a benc...
