Beyond LLM-GA: Secure Fluid Antenna Systems with ReEvo-Designed Memetic Algorithm

Fluid antenna systems (FASs) offer significant spatial flexibility, yet securing them against eavesdropping is critical for practical FAS deployment in military, satellite, and internet-of-things networks. Although large language model (LLM)-assisted genetic algorithms (LLM-GAs) can address this secure FAS port selecti...

LLM Persuasion Is in the Eye of the Evaluation

Large language models (LLMs) have already been shown to match or exceed human experts in persuasion. While their persuasive capabilities hold promise for beneficial uses such as education and health communication, they can also be used to manipulate and misinform, making their evaluation a growing priority for develope...

From Prompts to Trees: Effective LLM-Guided Tree Generation for Few-Shot Tabular Classification

While Large Language Models (LLMs) possess rich world knowledge and impressive generalization capabilities, their direct application to tabular data classification is hindered by high inference costs and limited interpretability. In contrast, decision trees are fast and transparent but often underperform in low-data re...

Why Software Engineering Is Indispensable in the Age of Coding Agents

Can AI make Software Engineering (SE) -- the discipline -- obsolete? And can it make software engineers -- the professionals -- redundant? This paper argues that the rise of capable AI coding agents makes SE and software engineers essential, not obsolete: the missing foundation without which AI-assisted development pro...

VideoEvolve: Co-Evolving Memory and Retrieval for Long Video Understanding

Long video understanding increasingly relies on external memory to organize massive visual streams into compact representations. However, most memory-based methods dynamically adapt how information is retrieved for different questions, while largely fixing what is remembered. This mismatch makes missing details costly...

EEG and Eye-Tracking Evidence That AI Disclosure Shapes Face Evaluation

AI-generated faces can be difficult to distinguish from real ones, leaving viewers to rely on source labels when judging an image. Yet prior work has made it difficult to separate the effects of what an image actually is from what viewers are told it is. We validated faces as AI-generated or human in an online study (N...

Beyond Outcome Rewards: Constructing and Assigning Retrieval Credit for Search Agents

Search agents enable Large Language Models (LLMs) to iteratively retrieve and use information for complex multi-hop questions. Reinforcement Learning with Verifiable Rewards (RLVR) offers a promising approach for post-training such agents, but its reliance on sparse, outcome-based supervision can make credit assignment...

Does Document Structure Help Dense Retrieval? A Placebo-Controlled Ablation of Four Mechanisms Across Two Corpora

Retrieval-augmented generation systems increasingly rely on document-structure treatments: structure-aligned chunking, LLM-generated chunk contexts, heading-path metadata, and hierarchical two-stage retrieval. Separate studies support each on different corpora, embedders, and metrics, and none control for a shared conf...

When Algorithmic Exploration Becomes Cheap: A Case Study of Agentic Research in EDA

As EDA researchers, we conducted eight deliberate trials of agentic algorithm exploration, selecting several topics outside our areas of depth. One faculty member and seven students participated, including students without publication experience. With limited intervention in the algorithms, agents developed mathematica...

Know the Shape, Find the Fault: Topology-Conditioned Diagnosis of Multi-Agent LLM Failures

Multi-agent LLM systems coordinate task execution through exchanges of information among agents. When coordination breaks down, similar symptoms in execution traces can reflect different problems in how information is passed, used, or verified. Communication topology captures how agents exchange information and provide...

ExperienceIndex: Artifact-Grounded Memory

Knowledge-intensive tasks require answering many questions by reasoning about a shared corpus of artifacts (e.g., court cases, or scientific literature). As humans interact with these corpora, they naturally accumulate experiential knowledge about artifacts, enabling them to quickly identify the complete set of relevan...

Activation-Aware Weight Tensorization: A Calibration-Time Preconditioner for Tensor-Network LLM Compression

Post-training tensor-network compression replaces Transformer linear layers with Tensor Train (TT) or Tree Tensor Network (TTN) operators, but standard decompositions minimize weight-space Frobenius error rather than functional error under the layer's activation distribution. We propose Activation-aware Weight Tensoriz...
