Abstract
Despite significant advances in autonomous web navigation, current methods remain far from human-level performance in complex web environments. We argue that this limitation stems from Topological Blindness, where agents are forced to explore via trial-and-error without access to the global topological structure of the environment. To overcome this limitation, we introduce WebNavigator, which reframes web navigation from probabilistic exploration into deterministic retrieval and pathfinding. WebNavigator constructs Interaction Graphs via zero-token cost heuristic exploration offline and implements a Retrieve-Reason-Teleport workflow for global navigation online. WebNavigator achieves state-of-the-art performance on WebArena and OnlineMind2Web. On WebArena multi-site tasks, WebNavigator achieves a 72.9\% success rate, more than doubling the performance of enterprise-level agents. This work reveals that Topological Blindness, rather than model reasoning capabilities alone, is an underestimated bottleneck in autonomous web navigation.
GAOKAO-Bench is introduced, an intuitive benchmark that employs questions from the Chinese GAOKAO examination as test samples, including both subjective and objective questions that contribute a robust evaluation benchmark for future large language models and offers valuable insights into the advantages and limitations...

This work proposes a HALO that directly maximizes the utility of generations instead of maximizing the log-likelihood of preferences, and suggests that the best loss depends on the inductive biases most appropriate for a given setting, an oft-overlooked consideration.
This work investigates the possibilities of using LLMs in a resume screening setting via a document retrieval framework that simulates job candidate selection and finds that the MTEs are biased, significantly favoring White-associated names in 85% of cases and female-associated names in only 11.1% of cases.
This work shows that orders of magnitude enhancement in performance could be obtained by a combination of hardware improvements and tight quantum-HPC integration and introduces high-performance architectures for quantum-probabilistic computing with custom-designed accelerators to tackle today's industry-scale classical...

This paper presents a comprehensive overview of the Ultralytics YOLO family, emphasizing architectural evolution, benchmarking, deployment, and emerging directions from YOLOv5 through YOLO27, and examines detection, segmentation, depth, classification, pose, oriented detection, tracking, export, quantization, and deplo...
A novel threat is unveiled in which attackers steer the RAG system's response by injecting malicious passages into its knowledge base, enabling the attacker to steer the response without altering the user input or modifying the RAG weights.
