We introduce Sequent-Prover, a family of verifier-using language-model agents, and the post-training framework that produces them. Agents reason in an executable SMT-LIB scratchpad: they write complete SMT-LIB programs, query Z3 across turns, inspect solver feedback, repair formalizations, and terminate with an explici...

Self-evolving mechanisms let vision-language model (VLM) agents continually adapt through evolving memory, but they also allow malicious behavior to emerge only after deployment. We introduce a new attack surface, the self-evolving backdoor, whose payload stays dormant in the initial agent and is progressively activate...

Large Language Models (LLMs) have been shown to be computationally expensive and vulnerable to jailbreak attacks, in which adversarial prompts bypass safety alignment and induce harmful responses. To address this inefficiency, a range of techniques have been proposed to enable efficient LLM inference. Depth-based dynam...
Modern AI systems increasingly combine large language models (LLMs) with human experts, using the LLM to handle routine queries while deferring uncertain cases for expert review. When expert capacity is limited, however, deferral decisions must account not only for the reliability of the LLM but also for congestion in...

Traffic sign recognition plays a crucial role in the development of autonomous cars to reduce the accident rate and promote road safety. It has been a necessity to address traffic signs that are affected significantly by the environment as well as poor real-time performance for deep-learning state-of-the-art algorithms...

Foundation models need to support diverse inference budgets, yet training a separate model for each budget duplicates pretraining effort. Elastic models train several nested sub-networks inside one weight-shared supernet, but existing recipes face three obstacles: variable per-step workloads that hinder distributed sca...
To evaluate whether a compact bidirectional state-space autoencoder improves joint classification of species, cell type, and disease state from single-nucleus RNA-sequencing profiles in heart failure (HF), while yielding interpretable gene attributions. Building on the dense denoising autoencoder (DAE) and MLP framewor...

AI coding agents operate in iterative loops: they modify code, run tools, inspect the results, and decide what to do next. We call the design of this process loop engineering, which includes context management, model selection, compaction, and termination. Existing efficiency work mainly compresses tool observations or...
Industrial anomaly detection benchmarks have advanced rapidly, yet they remain largely static and therefore underrepresent deployment settings in which inspection systems must be extended from one industrial component to another over time. In our setting, continual industrial anomaly detection is framed as a task-incre...
Tabular foundation models adapt to new datasets through in-context learning (ICL), and, like most transformers, they tie computational depth to the number of independently parameterized layers. We ask whether the ICL stage of such a model needs a distinct set of parameters for every layer, or only depth. We introduce T...
The average-reward setting for reinforcement learning is challenging because its Bellman operator is known to contract in span only when the underlying Markov chain is mixing. Whereas existing work typically assumes a contraction property, e.g., through environment mixing, we consider the setting where we are given a r...

Recurrent algorithmic reasoners are trained with per-step hints on small graphs and run for many more steps on large ones. On breadth-first search in SALSA-CLRS, we find that a reasoner can reproduce every training hint and still fail on deep graphs: after some exact steps, it declares nodes reached before the search g...
