This work introduces What If TSF (WIT), a benchmark for evaluating whether models effectively respond to future scenarios, and shows that factual accuracy gains do not consistently translate into appropriate responses to alternative scenarios, demonstrating the need to evaluate multimodal forecasting beyond predictive...

An ARC solver is introduced, Knowledge Augmentation for Abstract Reasoning (KAAR), which encodes core knowledge priors within an ontology that classifies priors into three hierarchical levels based on their dependencies and maintains strong generalization across most LLMs.

A concept-centric framework for building agents that can learn continually and reason flexibly across multiple domains and offers several advantages, including data efficiency, compositional generalization, continual learning, and zero-shot transfer.

One deployed language model must often serve many compute budgets, yet serving each budget still means a separate training or compression run per point. We train a Telescopic Language Model (TLM) to be that continuum: a nested-capacity Transformer supervised by stochastic prefix supervision with a full anchor. At every...

The ablations analyse why Foil works and turn the findings into design guidance for looped MoE: the returns of looping and of widening the expert layers amplify each other, routing confidence tracks healthy expert use better than load balance, and a sparse looped MoE should therefore use more experts per layer and more...

MS-GLA consistently achieves higher accuracy and lower perplexity than GLA at matched parameter counts, validating multi-temporal resolution decomposition as a principled and effective extension of Gated Linear Attention.
This work introduces TWISTER, the first automaton-twisted Sequential Monte Carlo decoder for MDLMs, and proves that for regular language constraints, the Feynman-Kac correction is exactly computable, with the twists obtained efficiently using quantities pre-computed for step-exact sampling.

This work introduces SEABench, a benchmark for studying endogenous misalignment arising from agent self-evolution, with 48 longitudinal task sequences that span multiple evolution surfaces, task domains, and harm types in a rich personal-assistant environment and shows that qualitatively different safety behaviors emer...

FactorEngram, a factorized n-gram memory with basis-level contextual gating that improves language modeling and downstream task performance and retrieves sparsity-regularized coefficients over a dictionary of basis vectors shared across patterns, so related patterns can reuse common components.

ALMIEYAR is introduced, a culturally grounded ASR benchmark covering 17 Arabic dialects across six families, built entirely from newly recorded speech unseen by existing models, including the first published benchmark for Ahwazi Arabic.

It is shown that persistent sycophancy reduction does not guarantee stronger direct refusal, while identifying recovery under user pressure as a distinct, conditional benefit of training intervention.
A family of chunk-level SAEs that encode mean-pooled activations over chunks, each a contiguous span of tokens: Mean-Chunk reconstructs the observed chunk, Cross-Chunk predicts an independently processed neighbor, and Joint-Chunk combines both targets are introduced.

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.
