ReadingMachine: A Computational Methodology for Structured Corpus Reading and Large-Scale Synthesis

ReadingMachine is a computational methodology for structured corpus reading that uses large language models to perform bounded reading operations over entire document collections. Rather than relying on retrieval or recursive summarization, the approach decomposes analysis into inspectable stages including insight extr...

FinEvolveBench: A Benchmark for Self-Evolving Agents on Low-Repetition Tasks with Implicit Rewards

Large language model (LLM) agents increasingly rely on external experience to continually adapt to changing environments without modifying their underlying models. Recent experience mechanisms have demonstrated promising results across diverse tasks. However, their effectiveness is typically evaluated within individual...

DySem: Uncovering Dynamic Semantic Components of Large Language Models for Calculating Semantic Textual Similarity

DySem is proposed, a novel training-free framework that investigates more semantic-related internal components of LLMs via multilingual consensus, and shifts away from static representation spaces in favor of dynamic, sample-specific semantic dimensions by constructing text-dependent joint semantic set and computes sim...

BabelSafe: A Policy-Grounded Multilingual Safety Benchmark for LLMs

As Large Language Models (LLMs) are increasingly deployed in cross-linguistic contexts, ensuring safety across diverse regulatory and cultural environments has become a critical challenge. However, existing multilingual benchmarks largely rely on general risk taxonomies and machine-translated data, limiting evaluation...

When Choices Become Risks: Safety Failures of Large Language Models under Multiple-Choice Constraints

We identify and systematically characterize a class of task-structural alignment failures in large language models (LLMs): even when the harmful intent remains unchanged, changing the task presentation and output constraints can substantially alter model safety behavior. Specifically, when a harmful request is reformul...
