Soft Tournament Equilibrium (STE) is a differentiable layer for Top-Cycle (TC) and Uncovered-Set (UC) inference from reciprocal pair probabilities. Normalized log-sum-exp reachability and covering give smooth scores with approximation, perturbation, and margin-recovery bounds. We distinguish structural supervision, pos...
Imitation learning (IL) teaches language-model agents to reproduce expert actions but not to distinguish them from plausible mistakes. Self-reflection methods expose models to alternatives yet use supervised fine-tuning (SFT) to imitate fixed rationales and actions. We introduce Agentic Critical Training (ACT), which u...

Bifurcations are ubiquitous in physical systems, from structural buckling to fluid and climate dynamics, yet they remain largely unexplored in deep learning. At a symmetry-breaking bifurcation, a single input admits multiple equally valid solutions, violating the one-to-one assumption underlying most learned physical s...

Recent incidents have highlighted the challenge of monitoring LLM agents and the danger of models deceiving people. We show that white-box deception detection via probes can be scaled up to frontier monitoring settings by collecting the largest deception dataset to date for training probes and introducing a novel probe...

LLM developers post-train their models to exhibit prosocial values and behavioral traits, which are enumerated in an alignment target. However, while recent post-training developments have yielded models that score highly on alignment evaluations, training models on sets of narrow behaviors still influences their behav...

Accurate simulation of rigid-body interactions is essential for predictive physical world models. Despite recent progress in modeling object dynamics, capturing how local contacts between surfaces shape object motion remains challenging. While end-to-end world models predict interactions across entire scenes or objects...

Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) identify treatment effects without confounding but are often small, whereas observational studies (OBS) are large but may be confounded. Many estimators combining a small RCT with a large OBS have been developed for the average treatment effect (ATE) and the conditional ATE (CATE). H...
Over 90% of disease-associated variants from genome-wide association studies fall in noncoding regulatory regions, yet their functional interpretation remains a central open problem in genomic medicine. Large language models prompted to interpret such variants routinely hallucinate transcription factor (TF) binding cha...

Cluster-TNN is introduced, a domain-agnostic framework that avoids this bottleneck by lifting locally instead, and enables the first training of multiple different higher-order Topological Neural Networks on large datasets such as Reddit and OGBN Products.

Time-series foundation models (TSFMs) have achieved strong forecasting performance across domains. However, most adaptation methods remain static. Existing all-in-one methods learn a single set of dataset-level parameter updates and apply the same adapted model to every input. As a result, they cannot adapt the model p...

Black-box optimization (BBO) arises in many scientific and engineering problems where objective evaluations are expensive and limited. Recent large language model (LLM) agents offer a new way to approach BBO by combining task semantics, computation, optimization tools, and feedback-driven decision making, showing great...

Generating large attributed graphs requires reproducing the topology, generating attributes jointly with the structure, and remaining scalable. Many real-world graphs exist as a single large graph, so a generative model has to generalize from the one graph it is fit on, without independent samples. We present Schema, w...

Prabha Jha used her experience with MIT Open Learning’s program for senior executives to develop AI solutions for her employer, Verizon, and to write a book.
Assistant Professor Benjamin Lindquist studies how engineers deliberately injected randomness into early AI, giving rise to deep-learning models that sometimes hallucinate.
