Strategy research conflates two problems: finding a profitable rule, and establishing that the finding is not search luck. The latter calls for admission gates -- statistical criteria that must be satisfied before a conclusion is adopted -- yet whether gates work, and at what cost, remains untested. We introduce an inj...
We introduce BluffJAX: an open-source suite of adversarial imperfect information games in JAX. We provide canonical implementations of games designed for high simulation throughputs and parallelization on GPU accelerators. Our suite consists of well-studied benchmarks such as Texas Hold'Em Poker and Kuhn Poker, as well...

Vision Language Models (VLMs) excel on visual benchmarks but fail systematically on tasks requiring abstract reasoning. Existing benchmarks document this failure but cannot say \emph{why} it happens or which cognitive capability is missing. We close this gap by adopting the Relational Match-to-Sample (RMTS) paradigm fr...

Social media archives are often used to study resistance to climate action, but words, response counters and observed participants do not measure the same social process. We examine four supplied Twitter and Reddit archives by processing all registered files without sampling and applying transparent, non-exclusive lexi...

Scientific discovery systems typically optimize experiments within a fixed hypothesis space. This creates a failure mode when all available candidates omit the same missing mechanism: candidate disagreement can collapse even while the model class is systematically wrong. We formulate experimental model-class revision,...

We evaluate whether AI agents can match the reported findings of published biomedical studies using public data. Existing evaluations do not consistently separate analysis from prior knowledge or retrieval of the published answer. We introduce BioStudyBench, a benchmark of 25 long-horizon analysis tasks drawn from stud...

This paper establishes a theoretical framework for vertical adaptive layer skipping, proving three foundational results: (i) an Expected FLOPs formula (theorem 2) giving a closed-form expression for the computational cost of arbitrary per-sample skip schedules as a function of layer-wise skip probabilities; (ii) functi...
Reinforcement learning with verifiable rewards (RLVR) provides a natural framework for adapting pretrained models to video temporal grounding, where generated temporal intervals can be scored directly against ground truth intervals. Yet existing overlap verifiers typically score each rollout independently, leaving the...

Direct Preference Optimization (DPO) has become a standard reward-model-free approach for aligning language models with preference data. However, as the scaled preference margin grows during training, the logistic DPO loss becomes progressively less sensitive to further changes. We study DPO from a loss-level geometric...

Quantitative imaging pipelines can produce precise but systematically different measurements of the same object. We present an empirical reliability assessment of three-dimensional mitochondrial morphometry that connects representation bias, a controlled processing intervention, correction transfer, and resolution sens...
In cooperative Multi-Agent Reinforcement Learning (MARL), agents are often trained under concurrent participation, while in many tasks some agents act earlier and leave task-relevant information that becomes useful to agents participating later. We study this setting as staggered participation (SP), which introduces a...
In clinical practice, agreement among independent experts is treated as evidence of reliability, and multi-round consensus has become a core mechanism of agentic medical question-answering systems. When such a system must decide whether to trust its own answer, the prevailing signal is again agreement, now among the sa...

With $2.1 million funding from Google.org, the open-source Public Transit Intelligence Hub will unify public transit monitoring, operations, and passenger communication.
Professor Sherry Turkle’s new book, “Artificial Intimacy,” offers a withering critique of chatbots and the antisocial dynamics she believes they encourage.
