Tool-using agents can expose citations and execution logs while leaving a critical association unaudited: whether the claim shown to a user is the claim emitted by the committed execution and supported by the cited source. A valid citation and a valid trace can therefore remain individually well formed while being tran...

Voice agents enable low-latency, natural interaction, yet their ability to faithfully ground responses in external documents remains underexplored. We introduce DuplexSpeechBench-Document Grounding (DSB-DG), a benchmark for evaluating document grounding in voice agents across five professional domains. DSB-DG targets t...

Large language models (LLMs) are increasingly deployed in privacy-critical domains (e.g., healthcare, finance, and government), but their propensity to memorize and disclose personally identifiable information (PII) poses serious security and compliance risks. Existing defenses typically force a trade-off between model...

Token-level certainty is widely used as a proxy for correctness in LLM training and inference. However, the performance of certainty-based methods depends both on the information in certainty scores and on how those scores are used. We therefore directly assess certainty's predictive ability through controlled empirica...

Selective intent routing allows an assistant to act on reliable predictions while deferring uncertain requests. Standard confidence scores primarily reflect the base model's representation, leaving an opportunity to incorporate complementary evidence without changing its decisions. We introduce a signed lexical gate th...
Long-term memory agents increasingly rely on it- erative search and reusable experience to answer questions over large personal, factual, or narrative histories. However, current experience-memory systems largely optimize relevance: they re- trieve past search lessons that appear similar to the current state and inject...
Data agents over structured sources must fit database schema into the model's context window. Large catalogs can span many databases and thousands of columns, so cost constraints may require choosing between table coverage and serialization detail well before the context window is full. We introduce BudgetSchemaBench,...
The advancement of natural language processing (NLP) has expanded AI-based text classification in the legal domain. However, accurately classifying legal documents remains challenging due to the complexity of legal texts and subtle differences between legal categories. This study evaluates legal text classification mod...
Instance-billed serverless platforms charge for CPU and memory over the lifetime of a warm instance, making idle inference state a direct serving cost. We present billing-aware neural text-to-speech (TTS) serving on serverless CPUs, optimizing CPU-seconds and GB-seconds rather than throughput or latency alone. Conventi...
Reading an LLM judge's verdict from the logits of its first generated token is cheap, requires no generation, and is exactly what constrained decoding and likelihood-scoring evaluation harnesses produce. We show that this readout distorts position bias in one direction: it overstates it in every condition we test, so f...

We evaluate six language-model configurations on requests for six distinct random integers from 1-49. Across 1,200 attempted calls using four English prompt variants, 1,184 responses yielded valid tickets. Effective diversity of number frequencies ranged from 9.9 to 18.0, compared with simulated fifth-percentile thresh...
Named-entity recognition (NER) is increasingly wanted on-device (no API, low latency, data kept local). The practitioner's question is not the leaderboard but which model is deployable, how to evaluate it without human annotation, and whether its confidence can be trusted. We answer these jointly. We place nine systems...
A new method, called CW-Net, translates the reasoning process of an autonomous vehicle’s AI system into understandable concepts that explain its behavior.
