Humans can often acquire and synthesize complex, recursive concepts from minimal experience. Leveraging cognitive insights, we propose the Minimalist Machine, a framework for inductive program synthesis designed to model such conceptual learning. The system uses a compact relational subset of Prolog: Programs are searched within a fixed schema of body-free facts and two-body conjunctive Horn clauses. Recursion is not defined by a dedicated metarule. Instead, it emerges when a target predicate is reused inside the body of a learned clause. Inspired by a primary school curriculum, the model is taught through a human-curated, sequential introduction of new concepts in arithmetic. Starting from initially empty knowledge base, it first acquires simple structural predicates, then successor-based state transformations, and finally recursive programs for addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. Ultimately, this approach yields the fully transparent, inductive reasoning trace necessary for human-like conceptual learning.
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 work shows that orders of magnitude enhancement in performance could be obtained by a combination of hardware improvements and tight quantum-HPC integration and introduces high-performance architectures for quantum-probabilistic computing with custom-designed accelerators to tackle today's industry-scale classical...

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...
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.

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.
