Estimating great expectations under autoregressive language models with potentials

Many applications of language models hinge not on individual samples but on the expectation of a test functional under the model. Estimating such expectations reliably can be computationally expensive. In this paper, we show how to make estimation more efficient by exploiting the next-token conditional probabilities wh...

TypedBench: A Benchmark for Calibration, Framing Sensitivity, and Cost in System One Decision Models

System One models output calibrated probabilities over typed answers such as categorical choices, ordinal levels, or binary outcomes, via a non-generative interface. Software can act on these probabilities through thresholds, cost-weighted choices, and escalation rules. Consequently, if these probabilities are miscalib...

Environmental Feedback Modeling Matters: Rethinking Feedback Treatment in Agentic Hindsight Self-Distillation

Reinforcement learning is commonly used to train language agents in interactive environments, but cannot be directly applied when rewards are unavailable. Recent methods use environmental feedback as privileged context for hindsight self-distillation, but our analysis suggests that simply conditioning the teacher on fe...

Equal Path Cost, Unequal Output Effects: Understanding Perturbation Propagation in Diffusion Models

Diffusion models have achieved remarkable success in generative modeling, with their sampling procedures routinely modified to control generation and improve efficiency. These modifications introduce perturbations along the sampling trajectory, raising a central question: how do such perturbations affect generated outp...

RIT-RAG: Navigating Document Corpora with Retrieval-Induced Trees

Retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) grounds language models in external corpora. Agentic RAG enables iterative search, yet exposes the model to isolated chunks without document structure, making it difficult to distinguish relevant evidence from chunks that merely resemble the query. Structure-aware methods such as Pa...

UniData: Universal Multimodal Instruction Generation Pipeline

Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) are increasingly being applied in a wider range of real-world scenarios. However, due to the substantial labor cost, creating high-quality multimodal instruction datasets for MLLMs remains a significant challenge. Although some methods propose to generate instruction data, they...

RaReCache: Bridging the Gap in Cross-Model KV Cache Reuse via Rank disagreement-based Selective Recomputation

Cross-model KV-cache reuse remains a key challenge in modern LLM serving. Coding agents and multi-model systems increasingly route a shared context across models: a user may switch models mid-session, or a cascade may escalate a difficult query. Because KV caches contain model-specific representations, each switch typi...

Writing for the Reviewer: Defensive Writing in GPT Models

Researchers increasingly use ChatGPT to revise their papers, and recent GPT versions often narrow or even retract the authors'claims. We call such changes defensive writing when the given material does not support them, and we test two explanations: the model corrects the authors'overclaiming, or it writes for an antic...

RL-ARC: Calibrating Large Reasoning Models via Reasoning-guided Uncertainty

Language models (LMs) are commonly trained with Reinforcement Learning with Verifiable Rewards (RLVR) to enhance their reasoning capabilities. However, since RLVR does not explicitly account for calibration during training, it can lead to severe calibration degradation, including overconfidence. Recent calibration-awar...

SynCo: Data Synthesis Co-Training for Self-Evolving LLMs via Multi-Agent Reinforcement Learning

Self-evolving LLM agents promise to improve autonomously through continual interaction and learning, reducing their dependence on manually curated supervision. Realizing this promise requires not only updating the agent, but also evolving its training experience as its capabilities change. However, most existing pipeli...

EvoSim: Learning to Model, Modeling to Learn

Physics-based models connect scientific explanation with quantitative prediction. Constructing them requires selecting physical processes, defining states and governing equations, specifying couplings, and identifying parameters from experiments. Existing AI systems remain limited in making these model structure decisi...

ReCast: Attribution-Oriented Step Representation Learning for LLM-Based Agent Systems

In LLM-based agent systems, failures can originate from early steps whose effects propagate through subsequent interactions, making their origins difficult to identify. To trace such failures back to their origin, failure attribution has been formulated as the task of identifying the earliest step responsible for the f...
