InSight-doc: Agentic Visual Perception for Long-Document Understanding

👍 5

08/11 08:00

Long-document understanding often requires reasoning over many visually rich pages, making inference costly and prone to context rot. In this work, we propose InSight-doc, an agentic visual perception framework that treats visual resolution as an adaptive reasoning-time resource. InSight-doc starts

DistilVDR: A Compact End-to-End Visual Document Retriever via Dual-Student Distillation

👍 5

08/11 08:00

Visual document retrieval (VDR) is dominated by multi-billion-parameter models that are slow to index at full corpus scale and expensive to serve. Prior compression routes either train a smaller multi-vector encoder from scratch or distil only the query side; neither yields a compact single-vector r

Reference-Free Post-Training of Open Large Language Models for Multilingual Machine Translation

👍 5

08/11 08:00

We study reference-free post-training for multilingual machine translation with open large language models. Starting from the supervised-finetuned MiLMMT-46-v0.1 models, we apply Group Relative Policy Optimization (GRPO) with a reward that averages two reference-free quality estimation models and is

ComBodied Agents: a New Paradigm of Human-Centric Agentic AI

👍 166

08/11 08:00

After an older adult misses a medication dose, a software agent can send another reminder and an embodied agent can bring the medication. Yet neither explains whether the person forgot, is confused, has side effects, or deliberately refused, nor what support is appropriate. This reveals a structural

SkillZip: Evaluation-Free Skill Compression for Self-Evolving Agents by Discovering Reusable Structure

👍 6

08/11 08:00

Self-evolving agents accumulate reusable skills by appending successful procedures and failure fixes. Over time, the same requirement is often restated in several branches, examples, and warnings, while common action sequences are copied rather than reused. The resulting skill becomes expensive to i

DSAgentBench: Can Agents Automate End-to-End Data-Science Workflows in Real Computer Environments?

👍 2

08/11 08:00

Real-world data science involves long-horizon workflows that span data wrangling, exploration, modeling, visualization, and validation, and require coordinated use of tools such as notebooks, IDEs, terminals, browsers, and databases within real operating environments. Yet existing benchmarks lack re

SPIEval: Evaluating Large Language Models as Mobile Assistants over Scattered Personal Information

👍 5

08/11 08:00

Large language models (LLMs) are increasingly deployed as mobile assistants, where a key challenge is leveraging personal information scattered across multiple applications (apps) to complete user instructions. However, due to the lack of dedicated benchmarks, their capabilities remain poorly unders

VibeLifeBench: Can Your Life Agent Be Proactive and Persistent in a Living World?

👍 11

08/11 08:00

Large language model (LLM) agents are increasingly deployed as personal assistants. Existing evaluations, however, mostly use short, self-contained requests in static environments. Everyday life assistance is different. A task runs for weeks rather than minutes. The world keeps changing while the ag

Power law graph attention: exact generalization of scaled dot-product attention, empirical collapse at inference

👍 1

08/10 08:00

The Large Language Model from Power Law Decoder Representations (PLDR-LLM) and its attention, Power Law Graph Attention (PLGA), replace the fixed bilinear form of scaled dot-product attention (SDPA) with a learned, input-generated bilinear operator G_{LM}, built from a positive tensor A_{LM} by elem

Decoding-Level Taboo: A Diagnostic Stress Test for LLM Robustness

👍 7

08/10 08:00

Large language model evaluations typically focus on performance under nominal conditions, creating an illusion of capability where models comfortably walk a narrow, highly optimized generation corridor. In real-world deployments, however, complex system prompts, safety guardrails, and structural con

Co-Evolution in Agentic Systems: Toward Self-Directed Evolution Beyond Human Design

👍 107

08/10 08:00

Agentic systems are increasingly expected to improve after deployment, yet single-entity self-evolution is often bounded by a static learning context, such as fixed tasks and feedback. This survey focuses on co-evolution in agentic systems, a multi-component form of self-evolution in which multiple

BDH-CQ: In-Context Learning with Recurrent Latent Reasoning

👍 550

08/10 08:00

We introduce BDH-CQ, a reasoning model that combines in-context learning with recurrent latent reasoning. Inputs presented at inference time continuously update the model's recurrent memory; the model then solves a query through iterative computation in a high-dimensional latent space, without verba

360CityArena: A Realistic Virtual Urban Navigation Benchmark for Embodied Agents

👍 4

08/09 08:00

We present 360CityArena, a benchmark for evaluating the urban exploration capabilities of embodied agents within a photorealistic environment constructed from 360-degree videos. Existing outdoor benchmarks either lack sufficient photorealism or complexity, resulting in a considerable gap from real-w

Not Worth Another Token: Marginal Value Estimation for Efficient Deep Research Agents

👍 6

08/09 08:00

Long-horizon research agents solve open-ended tasks through iterative retrieval, aggregation, and synthesis, but context grows rapidly while the marginal value of additional evidence often declines. This leads to unnecessary token cost, higher latency, and noisier inputs for final report generation.

VectraYX-Vision-1B: A Sub-2B Spanish/LATAM Cybersecurity Vision-Language Model with Structured Visual Reasoning and Native Tool Use

08/09 08:00

We present VectraYX-Vision-1B, a sub-2B vision-language model (VLM) for Spanish/LATAM cybersecurity imagery, coupling a frozen SigLIP-so400m encoder to a 1.04B Spanish/LATAM security decoder via an MLP. To our knowledge, it is the first sub-2B VLM specialized for cyber UI (IDA, Ghidra, Wireshark, Nm

On-Policy Self-Distillation without Any Supervision

👍 184

08/09 08:00

On-policy (Self-)Distillation (OPD / OPSD) has shown strong potential for post-training large language models (LLMs). However, existing methods still rely heavily on external supervision, including ground-truth signals, environmental feedback, or guidance from larger models, and therefore fall short

Business Arena: Benchmarking LLM Agents in a Realistic Marketplace

👍 16

08/09 08:00

Running a business is a challenging form of intelligent work. Operators must infer opportunities from partial signals, commit capital under uncertainty, adapt to delayed outcomes in a changing market, and satisfy regulatory obligations before trading legally. Frontier LLM agents can increasingly com

Gaming Without an Attacker: Benchmark Fingerprinting in LLM-Driven Search Under Selection Pressure

08/09 08:00

Benchmarks for systems that are optimized against the evaluation signal measure something different from what they claim. We document this concretely in two GPU-kernel-optimization suites with held-out generalization gates: Metal-Sci (10 scientific-compute tasks) and Metal-ZK (12 zero-knowledge/cryp

SymDiag: Explainable Diagnosis for LLM Reasoning via Neuro-Symbolic Verification

👍 5

08/09 08:00

Large language models (LLMs) increasingly serve as data-driven reasoners, yet their chains-of-thought (CoT) can be unfaithful even when final answers are correct. Most existing ``verification'' signals are not diagnostic: answer matching observes only the outcome, LLM-as-judge provides subjective an

TSDS-Toolbox: A Toolbox for Measuring Time-Series Dataset Similarity

👍 2

08/08 08:00

The rapid advancement of artificial intelligence (AI) has significantly accelerated research in time-series analysis, particularly in forecasting, classification, and generation tasks. Recent models, especially foundation models, benefit from time-series dataset similarity due to its significant rol

A Hybrid Nested Harness for Decoupling Structure and Parameters in LLM-Driven Optimization

👍 8

08/08 08:00

In evolutionary algorithms powered by language models, the LLM acts as a single operator that simultaneously updates structural components (like control flow) and continuous parameters. While LLMs can be good at the first, they are not efficient at the second, wasting tokens taking discrete jumps in

iFAN: Inference-Aware Learning for Plain Mask Transformers

👍 3

08/07 08:00

Query-based mask transformers assemble segmentation outputs through pixel-wise competition among query predictions of the final layer, yet this inference process is not explicitly optimized during training. We identify two key mismatches: the query with the highest probability-mask score does not ne

Mendel Gödel Machine: Recursive Self-Improving Coding Agents via Comparative Evolution

👍 15

08/07 08:00

Self-improving coding agents that iteratively rewrite their own source code have demonstrated impressive performance on coding tasks. However, existing solutions generally derive self-modification from a single failure trajectory at a time, overlooking rich comparative signals available in the agent

Beyond Starry Night: Shortcut-Aware Control-State Planning for Artist-Grounded Text to Image Generation

👍 5

08/07 08:00

Artist-grounded image generation requires more than appending an artist name to a prompt. Image models often respond to artist names through canonical shortcuts, such as recurring motifs, generic palettes, or overrepresented period signatures, rather than preserving the user's intended scene. We int

MirrorWorld: Taming Video Diffusion Models for Mirror Reflection Generation

👍 5

08/07 08:00

Recent advances in video diffusion models (VDMs) have enabled high-fidelity video synthesis. However, generating mirror reflections remains challenging because the content within a mirror must remain consistent with the surrounding scene. Existing VDMs are not specifically designed to model scene-to

The Next Screenshot Knows: Gated Hindsight Distillation for Mobile GUI Agents

👍 7

08/06 08:00

GUI agents are commonly trained offline from successful interaction trajectories. Standard training decomposes each trajectory into prefix-action pairs: the agent predicts an action from the current screen and interaction history, while the subsequent observation is discarded. This removes the ratio

JigShape: Evaluating Visual-Geometric Reasoning in VLMs through Jigsaw Puzzles

👍 3

08/04 08:00

Jigsaw puzzle solving requires jointly reasoning about visual content and geometric constraints, yet existing benchmarks use rectangular cuts that create ambiguous ground truth in texture-repeated regions. We introduce \ours{}, a benchmark with tab-and-blank interlocking pieces where geometric const

Omega-S: A Functional Resilience Index for LLM Fine-Tuning

👍 6

08/04 08:00

Fine-tuning a large language model on new data degrades what it previously learned. We present Omega-S, a drop-in penalty computed from the weight matrix alone: it needs no previous-task data, no Fisher matrix and no stored copy of the old weights. It is three lines in an existing training loop and

WeClawArena: An Auditable Sandbox and Benchmark for Cross-User Agents Collaboration and Security in Human-Centered Agent Networks

08/04 08:00

Recent advances in persistent personal-agent frameworks are making human-centered agent networks realistic deployment targets: each user can be served by an AI agent that acts on the user's behalf, maintains state, and communicates with other agents through social and task relations. In these networ

MMOOC: A Comprehensive Benchmark for Out-of-Context Evaluation in Multimodal Large Language Models

👍 5

08/01 08:00

Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) have achieved strong performance on a wide range of vision-language tasks, but often fail under imperfect or shifted contexts. A reliable MLLM should refuse truly out-of-context (OOC) questions with subject-level context shifts while still answering shifted i
