Closed-loop revision is increasingly used in large language model (LLM) applications, but failures may reflect incomplete feedback or ineffective responses to correct feedback. We introduce a fixed-budget revision protocol with deterministic verifiers that report all remaining violations across exact-length, lexical, a...

A gradient-based head attribution strategy where the Token-level Max-Margin loss is backpropagated to the attention maps enables a large-scale causal analysis of attention heads, making it suitable for LLMs.

A 96-item paired benchmark in which every flawed backtest has a clean control that holds strategy, dates, code style, labels, and reporting scaffold fixed while changing one methodology detail is built.

A reference-based framework for examining coherence and diversity through three perspectives is presented: aligning their evolution with human trajectories, comparing their summaries with a human continuation of the same prompt, and estimating their likelihood under a human reference distribution.

Self-supervised speech models encode rich phonetic information, but it remains unclear how to transform this information into interpretable metrics for second-language (L2) pronunciation assessment in spontaneous speech. We propose a native-reference coordinate geometry in which phone-class averages from native speech...
This work presents TEMPS (Temporal Embedding Model for Precise Search), a modular temporal branch that attaches to a frozen semantic retriever and trains on that signal, and introduces Temporal Textual Similarity (TTS), a task that measures how well two anchored texts align in time, independent of their topical similar...

Self-Conditioning is proposed, an unsupervised information-theoretic estimator that compares the likelihood of a review under its production context with its likelihood when that context is augmented with hints extracted from the review itself, and how that context is augmented with hints extracted from the review itse...

We investigate whether state-of-the-art large language models (LLMs) generate feedback that reflects the pedagogical practices of expert teachers in terms of feedback focus and adaptivity. Previous evaluation efforts have examined feedback characteristics, its impact on learning, and its target, yet the focus of feedba...
Effective summarization of interrogative dialogues is a critical task in forensic and investigative settings, requiring high factual accuracy, coherence, and attribute-specific relevance. In this work, we introduce CASPER, a novel Chain-of-Thought Attribute-Specific Prompting for Evaluative Summarization framework that...

Results show that selective anti-interference is an effective objective-level signal for robust context use and identifies locally sufficient tokens and sharply reduces prefix sensitivity on gate-selected suffix tokens.

It is shown that standard single-layer defenses each fail on their own and can even backfire, and called on the community to move beyond per-model alignment and toward composite safety mechanisms before multi-agent LLM systems are deployed at scale.

This work examined AI-related discourse on r/teenagers from January 2023 to July 2026 using validated keyword-based retrieval and a human-in-the-loop, LLM-assisted thematic analysis to position adolescent AI use not simply as technology adoption, but as an emerging negotiation over AI's place and boundaries in everyday...

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.
