Language models are more and more often asked for structured output: JSON that follows a schema, or a tool call with typed arguments. A small machine, an automaton, enforces the format by forbidding the tokens that would break it. We observe that this machine has a rare property: from any of its states, each token lead...
Reconstructing an editable CAD model from a 3D shape remains a challenging engineering task. Existing methods can propose CAD operations, but no single source of proposals works equally well across different part geometries and stages of reconstruction. We introduce CADFather, an autonomous agentic system that coordina...

Agentic artificial intelligence (AI) systems are becoming the interface to buildings, answering questions and controlling operations, but a building's readiness for them has not been systematically assessed. This study proposes a framework to quantify it. First, a building's knowledge graph sets two ceilings. The answe...
Steering an LLM agent means deciding whether to correct it, at which step, and with which mechanism. Uncertainty is often used to decide when to correct an agent, but whether it can guide these decisions remains unclear. We steer agent trajectories separately at every non-terminal step with each of four mechanisms and...

Before tool-using LLM agents are deployed in environmental and geospatial workflows, teams need evidence that an agent reliably selects the right operations against real APIs. We introduce GeoNatureAgent (GNA), a framework for pre-production evaluation of tool-using agents: a fixed sixteen-tool geospatial interface pub...

Natural-language feedback in interactive learning often explains why an action failed by pointing to violated requirements. Misinterpreting this feedback can lead an agent to rule out valid solutions. We study this setting by modeling user intent as latent constraints over an action space and formulating learning from...

Agent checkpoint systems decide what state is recovery-relevant, how to snapshot it, and whether rollback is admissible. None decides which of the safe boundaries they expose are worth materializing. We formulate this as counterfactual checkpoint advantage, the reduction in future recovery cost obtained by checkpointin...
Objective: We investigate whether accounting for epistemic uncertainty can improve the reliability of automated defect detection in medical device manufacturing. Methods: We consider a machine learning framework that operates on heterogeneous manufacturing and device-report data represented with Knowledge Graphs. To mi...

The search for a common view of justice and fairness has challenged human collective activity, as our diverging judgments are unavoidably shaped by the self-interests of social position, personal benefit, cultural inheritance, and historical circumstance. John Rawls famously attempted to overcome this limitation throug...
Large language models can extract useful signals from heterogeneous enterprise data, but high-recall extraction often produces outputs that are duplicated, uneven in granularity, semantically overlapping, or too numerous for downstream systems and human reviewers to use effectively. We present a dataset-adaptive post-p...

Supervisory governors can interfere with the tool-using agents they regulate. We study this possibility in a controlled file-recovery environment where increases in regulatory intensity trigger experimentally imposed tool failures. A cost-blind governor can turn these failures into persistent blocking that prevents tas...
Multi-agent path planning (MAPP) in continuous environments often relies on roadmaps to balance safety and search efficiency. However, traditional roadmap generation methods, such as lattice grids or standard sampling-based approaches, frequently face a trade-off between graph density and the likelihood of finding feas...
