This work investigates why irrelevant historical audio changes answers even when the queried event remains represented, and shows that source-role information can influence a decision without exclusively controlling which historical values affect it.
This study evaluates whether large language models (LLMs) can reliably replace or complement human research assistants in linguistically complex annotation. In a controlled annotation task, 73 human annotators (local students and crowdworkers with and without a background in linguistics) and more than 40 LLM configurat...
Knowledge distillation improves a student model's reasoning ability through supervision from a teacher. On-policy self-distillation (OPSD) uses the same model as both teacher and student under different contexts: the student generates reasoning trajectories from the question alone, while the teacher additionally receiv...
The value of memory lies not only in recall but in using it to provide appropriate assistance. Recent benchmarks test memory use in personalisation and agentic tasks, but seldom evaluate assistance without fixed answers or integration across multiple participants. Group chats make both challenges more acute: an assista...

Reinforcement learning with verifiable rewards (RLVR) has become an effective approach for improving mathematical reasoning in large language models. However, a fundamental question remains: when a model fails to solve a problem, does it truly lack the underlying capability? In this work, we reveal that direct failure...
Hallucinations in Large Language Models (LLMs) remain a major challenge, as they can produce misleading, factually incorrect, or unverifiable information, thereby undermining their trustworthiness and reliability. However, reliable ground-truth labels remain a key challenge in evaluating hallucination detectors. Recent...
While conversational recommendation systems provide a more natural user interface, they face the challenge of progressively discovering a user's needs before they can recommend an item that satisfies them. To evaluate the ability of AI agents at this elicitation process, we introduce $\tau$-Rec-Books, a benchmark that...
LLM agents increasingly act on information retrieved from public sources they treat as credible, which turns a manipulated recommendation into a transaction, a dependency, or a decision with physical consequences. The security literature models this threat as instruction injection, in which an adversary writes a comman...
We introduce a training-free sparse attention method that builds a prompt-specific key index to accelerate both prefill and decoding. The method clusters the keys into large semantic blocks that group tokens from noncontiguous positions. Each query position selects blocks by scoring their centroids and attends to the o...
Power-grid customer service increasingly relies on community social media, where customers describe outages, billing, and equipment faults in informal regional dialect. Such messages exhibit non-standard morphology, semantic drift, and out-of-vocabulary expressions that make manual lexicon construction costly and degra...
Why do language models fail on long inputs? The common answer is length. We show that, for retrieval, length is cheap and competition is not. On five open models (0.5B to 3B parameters, four families), neutral filler costs nothing: accuracy stays at 0.97 to 1.00, up to 32K tokens on Qwen2.5-1.5B. Statements in the form...
Practitioners who compare systems with an LLM judge and have no human labels often check a conclusion by repeating it with a judge from another provider. We test how far that check can be trusted. In a preregistered study (with a disclosed post-registration reduction of the judge set), five judge models from three prov...
