Large language models have achieved remarkable advances in complex reasoning. However, scaling reasoning post-training with ever-larger corpora can substantially increase training cost without proportional performance gains. In this study, we therefore ask: how far can reasoning supervision be compressed without sacrif...

Large language models (LLMs) excel across diverse tasks, benefiting from knowledge priors, in-context reasoning, and test-time computation. Despite these strengths, single-model reasoning remains vulnerable to error propagation, as later steps depend on the model's earlier outputs, leaving reasoning blind spots difficu...

Brain-computer interfaces decode neural activity, yet class-label supervision (CLS) leaves relationships among classes implicit. We propose Language as Supervision (LaS), which aligns neural features with natural-language class descriptions through learned projections and predicts classes using candidate text prototype...

AI shopping assistants increasingly influence which products consumers consider. We study retail assortment planning under AI mediation, where a retailer chooses a catalog, an AI intermediary forms a customer-facing shortlist, and the customer chooses from that shortlist according to a multinomial logit model. We consi...

Existing governance approaches in decentralized financial networks rely on manual review processes conducted by human committees, which introduces subjective bias, creates a scalability bottleneck under high network volume, and fails to capture complex behavioural patterns and evolving network dynamics. To address thes...

Vision-language-action (VLA) models have shown strong promise in robotic manipulation, yet their post-training still predominantly relies on trajectory-level supervised imitation over robot demonstrations. While effective for learning feasible actions, this paradigm supervises policies to reproduce expert actions at ea...
Understanding and manipulating spatial relations is fundamental to AI systems that reason about physical environments and construct grounded world models. However, existing evaluations of multimodal large language models (MLLMs) for spatial reasoning rely predominantly on static question-answering (QA) over small-scale...

Diffusion language models generate tokens in parallel, but still require multiple sampling steps to produce high-quality text. In this paper, we investigate whether a model can learn to generate an entire sequence in a single forward pass. We propose Seq-Drifting, a framework that applies drifting to sequences of conti...

Large language models (LLMs) demonstrate strong individual task performance, yet still struggle to collaborate with users over extended, multi-turn interactions, for example by attempting solutions before understanding the user's needs or by failing to revise mistaken assumptions after receiving feedback. We propose Co...

On-Policy Self-distillation is a self-improvement paradigm that enables large language models (LLMs) to improve their capabilities by leveraging the same model as both teacher and student under different conditioning contexts. However, we find that OPSD methods can progressively degrade previously acquired capabilities...
Despite extensive research, computational creativity still lacks a conceptually grounded, practically relevant, and empirically applicable formal definition across contexts such as art, scientific research, and games. Existing approaches to creativity often focus on proposing informal conceptual definitions without pro...
Neural networks routinely develop representations in which individual neurons contribute to multiple distinct functions, leading to the widespread view that such networks lack modular organization. We challenge this conclusion by introducing a formally nested hierarchy of modularity: unit-level, which requires distinct...
