Adaptive Power Sampling for LLM Reasoning

Sequence-level power sampling has recently emerged as a training-free approach to reasoning by sampling from a sharpened output distribution of a base large language model (LLM). Nevertheless, existing methods typically sharpen the base model distribution uniformly across queries, overlooking variations in query diffic...

How Much Evidence Should a Coding Agent's Self-Correction Carry? Adaptive Dirichlet Evidence for Self-Distillation

Execution feedback lets coding agents revise programs and learn from their own corrections. A correction's learning weight should reflect both the transitions supported by its executions and the amount of evidence behind that support. We introduce Effective-Evidence Self-Distillation (EESD), which represents these quan...

Cylindrical Geodesic Flow Matching for Quasiperiodic Physiological Signal Transformation

Paired translation between quasiperiodic physiological waveforms (i.e., recovering a target oscillatory signal from the source) is central to the interpretation of cardiovascular signals derived from wearables placed at different body locations. This source-to-target mapping in these problems carries inherent geometric...

AssemState: Manual and Physical-State-Guided Reasoning for Zero-shot Furniture Assembly

Multimodal large language models (MLLMs) have made significant progress in visual understanding, but precise 3D spatial reasoning integrated with physical environment remains difficult. Furniture assembly requires not only recovering step-level operations from diagrammatic manuals, but also translating semantic attachm...

EMHO: EMbodied Agent Harness Optimization via Experience Traces

Improving embodied agents often focuses on optimizing the underlying model through training, while the surrounding agent harness that controls planning, context, and tool use is typically engineered. We ask whether this harness can instead improve itself directly from experience traces under sparse environmental feedba...

Transect: Retaining Observability for Long-Horizon LLM Agent Evaluations

Frontier AI evaluations increasingly use open-ended, agentic, long-horizon tasks whose transcripts can span hundreds of pages of outputs and actions from complex multi-agent networks. The observability envelop-the range of what evaluators can reliably infer about an agent's behaviours-is therefore narrowing. Language m...

MoF: Preference-Aware Mixture Modeling for Black-Box LLM Personalization

Proprietary Large Language Models (LLMs) have demonstrated remarkable capabilities across a wide range of tasks, yet aligning their outputs with diverse user preferences remains challenging. Existing personalization approaches for black-box LLMs often rely on user-specific scoring heads, causing the number of personali...

An AI-Assisted Formalization of the Poincar\'e Conjecture

We present an AI-assisted Lean 4 formalization of the Poincar\'e conjecture. The project began with limited reusable formal infrastructure for the geometric analysis behind the proof. To organize this work, we combined a proof blueprint prepared by mathematicians with explicit milestone statements. These milestones ena...

MedZERO: Self-Evolving Agents for Open-Ended Medical Reasoning Through Controlled Knowledge Accumulation

Large language models (LLMs) have shown promise in medical question answering and clinical reasoning, yet their improvement remains constrained by static parametric knowledge and costly expert supervision. Self-evolving agents offer a promising alternative by enabling models to improve through iterative task generation...

SCOPE: Certified Theorem Proving with a Language Model as the Policy Planner

In proof assistants such as Lean, a generated proof must pass machine compilation checks, so evaluation needs no human scoring. Direct generation fails on multi-step numeric propositions: a proof is valid only if every content integer is correct, so the pass rate is bounded by the k-th power of the per-integer accuracy...

zkLLMPoT: Efficient Zero Knowledge Proof of Training for Large Language Models

Auditing the claimed outcomes of large language model (LLM) training is challenging when model weights and training data are private, while cryptographically proving the full training process is prohibitively expensive at Transformer scale. We present zkLLMPoT, a zero-knowledge framework that certifies auditor-defined...

MASC: A Multi-Agent Self-Calibration Framework with Latent Construct Alignment for Consistent Client Role-Playing in Psychological Counseling

Large language models are increasingly used to simulate clients for counselor training and psychological counseling research, but reliable simulation requires clients to remain psychologically coherent across extended interactions. Existing role-playing methods largely rely on static profile prompts and may exhibit per...
