Argument Mining (AM) is a critical NLP task that remains significantly under-resourced in Arabic. This paper presents $\testtt{STAR-Ar}$, a BERT-BiLSTM-CRF architecture for argument discourse detection and classification, as our system for Daleel 2026, the inaugural Arabic argument mining shared task. The task requires...

Continual alignment requires LLMs to adapt to new requirements without forgetting previously acquired behaviors. Natural-language instructions are flexible and composable but offer only indirect control, whereas post-training provides stronger adaptation at the cost of repeated parameter updates. We introduce Ready2Ble...

A transformer language model performs a bounded amount of computation per token, and recent work by Vishal Sikka, former CEO of Infosys, argues that this bound limits which tasks a model can carry out or verify (arXiv:2507.07505). We ask how much of the budget beneath that ceiling is spent on work the model has already...
Autonomous AI agents can turn authors'goals into interactive narratives by independently organizing and carrying out generation and revision. As agents generate and revise extensive content, authors struggle to grasp its overall structure, local details, and relationships, complicating continued guidance. We present Na...

Automatic evaluation of faithfulness increasingly relies on a large language model acting as a judge, yet the most reliable judges are proprietary frontier models, costly and ill-suited to high-throughput monitoring. We investigate whether a panel of cheap open-weight judges (4--9B) can be aggregated to stand in for a...
Deep research tasks require agents to navigate large knowledge spaces, synthesize evidence across many sources, and adapt their plans as findings emerge. Directed acyclic graph (DAG)-based multi-agent systems suit this setting because they support parallel execution and isolate each sub-task within a focused dependency...
Self-evolving search agents build their own training curricula by jointly optimizing a proposer that generates questions and a solver that answers them. This closed loop introduces a failure mode we call co-cheating: the proposer and solver increasingly agree on shared errors, so internal reward improves without a matc...
Emotion recognition in conversation has been widely studied, but applying Large Language Models (LLMs) to continuous dimensional emotion evaluation in multimodal dialogue remains largely unexplored. We propose an LLM-based framework that performs discrete emotion recognition and Valence-Arousal-Dominance (VAD) dimensio...
A large language model (LLM) can rate depression severity directly from a social media post or mark which clinical criteria the post shows and let code turn the count into a label. The latter is easier to audit because a clinician can check each marked criterion. We compare these approaches on two Reddit corpora using...
Designing expressive sequence layers with efficient inference remains a central challenge in modern machine learning. Standard softmax attention achieves excellent sequence modeling performance through rich nonlinear token interactions, but it requires a key-value cache that grows linearly with sequence length, limitin...

LLM services are billed per token and context windows are measured in tokens, yet the number of tokens needed for the same content varies across languages. We measure this token premium on seven tokenizers of widely used 2026 models (OpenAI o200k, Llama 3, Qwen3, DeepSeek V3/V4, Gemma 3, Mistral Tekken, and the Claude...
Chain-of-thought (CoT) traces often serve as a proxy for how Large Language Models (LLMs) arrive at their answers. However, growing evidence shows that models'CoT often fails to reflect their internal computations and can be changed without affecting their final answers. In this work, we measure and improve the alignme...

A new computational approach reveals how cells communicate to assemble into tissues. This could accelerate stem cell engineering, improve disease models, and inform therapies.

Zero-knowledge proofs can verify computing results without rerunning workloads or exposing sensitive data. Magnetar helps bring them into the mainstream with support for standard programming languages, major speed gains, and quantum-resistant security. The post Proof-based general-purpose computing with Magnetar appeared first on Microsoft Research.
