CoFrGeNet: Continued Fraction Architectures for Language Generation

The architecture family implementing this function class is named CoFrGeNets - Continued Fraction Generative Networks, and novel architectural components based on this function class that can replace Multi-head Attention and Feed-Forward Networks in Transformer blocks while requiring much fewer parameters are designed.

Aligning Agentic World Models via Knowledgeable Experience Learning

WorldMind is introduced, a framework that autonomously constructs a symbolic World Knowledge Repository by synthesizing environmental feedback that unifies Process Experience to enforce physical feasibility via prediction errors and Goal Experience to guide task optimality through successful trajectories.

The Instability of Safety: How Random Seeds and Temperature Expose Inconsistent LLM Refusal Behavior

The stability of safety refusal decisions across random seeds and temperature settings is investigated by investigating the stability of safety refusal decisions across random seeds and temperature settings to demonstrate that single-shot safety evaluations are insufficient for reliable safety assessment and that evaluation protocols must account for stochastic variation in model behavior.

Think-at-Hard: Dynamic Looped Transformers for Improved Reasoning

This work proposes Think-at-Hard (TaH), a looped transformer optimized for selective iteration that employs a lightweight neural decider to trigger latent iteration, only at tokens likely to be incorrect after the standard forward pass.

PRISM: Agentic Retrieval with LLMs for Multi-Hop Question Answering

PRISM, an agentic retrieval framework that leverages large language models in a structured loop to retrieve relevant evidence with high precision and recall, achieves higher retrieval accuracy while filtering out distracting content, enabling downstream QA models to surpass full-context answer accuracy while relying on significantly less irrelevant information.

Automatic Pronunciation Error Detection and Correction of the Holy Quran's Learners Using Deep Learning

This work introduces a 98% automated pipeline to produce high-quality Quranic datasets and presents a novel ASR-based approach for pronunciation error detection utilizing the authors' custom Quran Phonetic Script (QPS) to encode Tajweed rules (unlike the IPA standard for Modern Standard Arabic).

Beyond the Rosetta Stone: Unification Forces in Generalization Dynamics

This work introduces a controlled setting to study the causes and training dynamics of cross-lingual knowledge transfer by training small Transformer models from scratch on synthetic multilingual datasets and suggests methods to encourage representational unification as part of training that would improve LLMs'cross-lingual transfer.

Cognitive Chain-of-Thought (CoCoT): Structured Multimodal Reasoning about Social Situations

Cognitive Chain-of-Thought (CoCoT) is introduced, a reasoning framework that structures vision-language-model reasoning through three cognitively inspired stages: Perception, Situation, and Norm, showing that structuring model reasoning through cognitively grounded stages enhances interpretability and social alignment, laying the groundwork for more reliable multimodal systems.
