Agentic Hybrid RAG for Evidence-Grounded Muon Collider Analysis

This work presents agentic hybrid RAG, an evidence-grounded RAG framework for muon collider research, which consistently outperforms representative retrieval and RAG baselines in retrieval effectiveness, answer quality, evidence coverage, and factual grounding.

Sci-Rho: A Multilingual Visually-Grounded Symbolic Benchmark for STEM Problems

This work introduces Sci-Rho (Science Rhobustness), a dynamic benchmark for visually-grounded STEM problems spanning five subjects and seven languages, comprising 4,242 problem templates crafted by domain experts, including Olympiad medalists.

Defending Against Malicious Finetuning by Scaling Train-time Adversarial Attacks

Patcher is a novel and efficient adversarial training algorithm that alternates between an attack stage and a defense stage: the attack stage simulates many-step malicious finetuning and computes the resulting parameter displacement as an"attack vector", while the defense stage aims to preserve safe behavior under such...

Large Language Models Hack Rewards, and Society

To study this phenomenon, SocioHack is introduced, a sandbox of 72 societal environments, and it is found that within these environments, reward hacking naturally emerges and leads to regulatory loophole discovery.

Shared Doubt: Zero-Shot Cross-Lingual Confidence Estimation for Language Models

Confidence estimation (CE), i.e. quantifying the reliability of a model's prediction, has attracted great interest in the context of large language models (LLMs). However, most studies focus on English, ignoring the multilingual reality of LLM usage, while many CE methods degrade or require retraining across languages....

Multi-Legal-Bench: When the Answer Is in the Input. Label Leakage in Legal Benchmarks Built from Court Registries

Court registries publish millions of decisions with structured metadata, which makes them an attractive source of labelled legal benchmarks: the court type, the form of the decision and its subject area come for free. We show that this convenience has a cost that registry-derived benchmarks rarely measure. We build Mul...

EviLink: Multi-Path Schema Linking with Uncertainty-Guided Evidence Acquisition for Large-Scale Text-to-SQL

This work reframe schema linking as uncertainty-aware schema-need inference over multiple plausible SQL paths, where the system distinguishes required schema items from path-dependent uncertain ones and acquires evidence only where needed.

PhoneWorld: From Real-App Trajectories to Dynamic and Verifiable Environments for Phone-Use Agents

Real applications provide the training setting closest to phone-agent deployment, but are difficult to reset, scale safely, and verify programmatically. Static screenshots and interaction trajectories preserve realistic evidence but cannot generate new experience. We introduce PhoneWorld, a trace-grounded framework tha...

DeferMem: Query-Time Evidence Distillation via Reinforcement Learning for Long-Term Agent Memory

Large language model (LLM) agents still struggle to effectively use long-term memory, with answer-supporting evidence often scattered across long conversational histories and buried in substantial irrelevant content. Existing memory systems commonly process memory into dedicated units before future queries are known an...

COTCAgent: Preventive Consultation via Probabilistic Chain-of-Thought Completion

Sequential diagnosis requires ranking diseases from a sparse intake under a public budget of follow-up questions, which is diagnostic triage with missing findings rather than screening of people who have no symptoms. Because laboratory series arrive irregularly and histories remain incomplete, the ranking must be updat...

Proof-based general-purpose computing with Magnetar

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.
