Looped reasoners spend test-time compute by iterating a weight-tied map, but a small residual does not mean the state is a fixed point when that map lives in unconstrained latent space. We propose Geometric Fixed-Point Reasoning (GFPR), in which the iterated state is the prediction itself: a field of categorical beliefs on a product of simplices, whose argmax is the answer at every step. Because the state is a belief, task structure can be imposed through compact convex relaxations, either as structured readouts or directly in the recurrent state; in the latter case the update remains a continuous self-map, so a fixed point exists for any parameters. At about 7M parameters, GFPR reaches 95.1% exact match on Sudoku-Extreme, 92.0% on Maze-Hard, and 100% sequence accuracy on S_5 length 128, above the published FPRM numbers at the same scale. The same update also trains a 201M language model on FineWeb-Edu in which each site is a distribution over the vocabulary; with 24 Picard steps it is above GPT-2 small on four zero-shot multiple-choice tasks and above GPT-2 medium on ARC-Easy.
GAOKAO-Bench is introduced, an intuitive benchmark that employs questions from the Chinese GAOKAO examination as test samples, including both subjective and objective questions that contribute a robust evaluation benchmark for future large language models and offers valuable insights into the advantages and limitations...

This work investigates the possibilities of using LLMs in a resume screening setting via a document retrieval framework that simulates job candidate selection and finds that the MTEs are biased, significantly favoring White-associated names in 85% of cases and female-associated names in only 11.1% of cases.
This paper presents a comprehensive overview of the Ultralytics YOLO family, emphasizing architectural evolution, benchmarking, deployment, and emerging directions from YOLOv5 through YOLO27, and examines detection, segmentation, depth, classification, pose, oriented detection, tracking, export, quantization, and deplo...
A novel threat is unveiled in which attackers steer the RAG system's response by injecting malicious passages into its knowledge base, enabling the attacker to steer the response without altering the user input or modifying the RAG weights.

This work revisits schema linking when using the latest generation of large language models (LLMs) and finds empirically that newer models are adept at utilizing relevant schema elements during generation even in the presence of large numbers of irrelevant ones.

Empirically, PRISM reduces the end-to-end time for data selection and model tuning to just 30% of conventional pipelines, and achieves this efficiency while simultaneously enhancing performance, surpassing models fine-tuned on the full dataset across eight multimodal and three language understanding benchmarks.
