摘要：Recursive self-improvement, in which AI systems build stronger AI systems, is one promising route to superintelligence. We study a weaker form that can be measured today: frontier agents post-training a small raw base model with public data, as a test of their research potential. We build Athanor, an open agent-native system for autonomous post-training research (AutoPostTrain) on real GPUs. We give the agents full research autonomy, low-friction engineering tools, and efficient starter code. The agents carry out the research themselves: they read datasets and evaluation results, build their training data, write and modify training algorithms, tune hyperparameters, and analyze the results to decide what to try next. They work in a sandbox and cannot use external teacher models. Athanor's s

来源：arXiv

摘要：Large language model (LLM) agents can keep scientific experiments running for months with little human supervision, but reliable autonomous research also requires scientific judgment. Evaluating scientific judgment is difficult because research decisions are open-ended and depend on project context. We construct Sci$Π$vot, a 248-case benchmark of scientific judgment based on human corrections. The benchmark draws on records from six months of research in which senior researchers ran LLM agents on 26 projects across six scientific fields and repeatedly intervened to correct the agents' research judgments. In each case, an agent chooses between the original LLM plan and the human-corrected alternative, using only the project record available before the correction as context. We compare LLM a

摘要：External-memory systems extend language-model applications beyond a context window, but their quality depends critically on the model executing the write path: deciding what to retain, how precisely to represent it, and how new evidence should update persistent state. Existing frameworks typically place a general-purpose large language model behind framework-specific prompts. This raises serving cost, and a writer specialized for one protocol does not transfer directly to another; a unified model that can operate across established memory frameworks remains largely unexplored. We present Hy-Memory-30B-A3B, a compact long-term-memory writer trained across Mem0, MemOS, and Hy-Memory.

摘要：Large language model (LLM) agents now fix software, operate computers and serve customers, but their harnesses, the programs that run them, call a large LLM at every step, which makes long tasks slow and costly. Most of these calls end in a multiple-choice decision, such as which tool to call next. Decision models such as Jev answer these questions directly, at a fraction of an LLM call's time and price. We ask how a harness can delegate these decisions to a decision model with little loss of success. To evaluate decision models in agentic tasks, we build AgentDecisionBench, which tests them from isolated questions up to control of a running agent, on public benchmarks and our DecisionGym environment. The decision model most accurate on isolated questions solved only 69.5% of agent tasks,

来源：arXiv

摘要：Orchestrating multiple agents on a complex task requires reconciling local subtask execution with global task planning. Dynamic dispatch approaches provide execution flexibility but do not explicitly model subtask hierarchies or dependencies, while predefined workflows impose this structure but fix the decomposition before execution begins. Therefore, we introduce HTN-Orchestrate, a two-layer framework that separates these responsibilities through a hierarchical task network (HTN). The Planner maintains subtask hierarchies and dependencies, deferring decomposition until prerequisite results become available, while local Orchestrators schedule workers to execute each leaf subtask. Results propagate upward under \textbf{AND} semantics, and accumulated findings inform a rebuilt task network w

摘要：Centralized orchestration provides comprehensive multi-agent coordination but creates bottlenecks in scalability, adaptability, and collective performance. Decentralized approaches alleviate these bottlenecks by distributing coordination across agents, yet often leave responsibility for delegated dependencies and failure recovery unclear. To address this gap, we propose RCM, a responsibility-centered coordination mechanism that leverages commitments to couple task delegation with explicit responsibilities of the involved parties. Through recursive delegation, agents retain their upstream responsibilities while locally orchestrating downstream commitments, thereby preserving accountability across delegation chains, creating a network of local orchestration. We operationalize this mechanism

摘要：The capabilities of an agent swarm depend on both its individual members and how they coordinate. Yet existing multi-agent systems often train agents within fixed orchestration structures, separating the learning of individual capabilities from the organization of collective behavior. We introduce market-based post-training (MPT), a framework for jointly learning action policies and self-orchestration in decentralized agent swarms. Agents express their willingness to participate through bids, which determine who acts and how collective outcomes provide local training credit. Learning both action and bidding behavior allows individual capabilities and patterns of participation to adapt together without a central coordinating agent. We evaluate MPT on embodied crafting, robot navigation, and

标题：Decentralized LLM Workflows via Sequential Auctions
来源：arXiv
链接：https://arxiv.org/abs/2610.22201
摘要：We present a scalable framework for solving multi-step tasks through a decentralized market of self-interested agents. Prior theoretical work demonstrated that agents organized through sequential auctions can converge to a globally optimal policy in a Markov decision process (MDP), but relied on the restrictive assumption of the existence of perfect clones as a model of perfect competition. In reality, exact clones drive agent profit to zero, violating the natural risk-reward incentives of participants. Conversely, we empirically demonstrate that the opposite extreme, absence of competition, also leads to market failure and value extraction collapse. Between these two extremes, we investigate how heterogeneous agents can survive in markets that span the critical middle ground of imperfect
标题：Bias Control and Injection for Multi-Agent Aggregation
来源：arXiv
链接：https://arxiv.org/abs/2610.21290
摘要：Multi-agent reasoning with large language models (LLMs) raises a central question for collective decision-making: when agents disagree, whose decision should be trusted? Resolving such disagreements is difficult because agents' decisions are susceptible to non-semantic biases such as majority pressure and response-style preferences, which can obscure the quality of the underlying reasoning. Our analysis shows how bias can be both mitigated and exploited: bias control improves initial answer selection, while bias injection elicits decision instability that serves as a reliability signal. Building on these findings, we introduce a test-time aggregation framework that requires neither validation data nor prior knowledge of relative model strength. The framework implements bias control by pres

来源：arXiv

摘要：LLM systems increasingly rely on groups of agents that discuss, critique, and check one another, assuming that peers will catch individual errors. We test this assumption against a minimal adversary. In a ten-agent factual discussion, one or three adversarial agents repeatedly assert a plausible false answer. After each round we probe each benign agent's private answer through a separate call whose response is hidden from its peers, and we separately label its public stance toward the claim. Across six models and three factual-QA datasets, groups remain stable without an attacker: only 0.6% of benign agents finish with the false answer. A single adversarial agent increases this rate to 44.8% and three to 60.5%. Studies of conformity typically report public agreement without private change;

Recent incidents have already revealed unplanned coordination between agents, highlighting the safety implications of these interactions. Yet prior studies of agent negotiation often use stylized games and simulated bargaining, leaving open how these behaviors develop during sustained, long-horizon tasks. We propose SCARCE (Shared Compute ARena for Coding agEnts), a framework in which agents solve sequences of coding tasks under individual deadlines while negotiating access to a shared execution resource. This negotiation determines when and for how long they can inspect programs, compile code, and run tests. We find that agents spontaneously devel

摘要：Large language model (LLM)-based agents and multi-agent systems increasingly tackle complex tasks through long-horizon tool use and inter-agent collaboration. However, these systems are prone to deviating from the overall goal as execution unfolds, which wastes execution resources and leads to undesired outcomes, a failure termed goal drift. In this work, we propose a steering agent that supervises execution on the fly and steers the system back on track when drift occurs. The steering agent observes the execution context, deciding when to intervene with a low-cost fast path and how to intervene with a high-cost slow path. To unlock its steering intelligence, the ability to assess goal drift and generate effective interventions, we jointly train the two paths with reinforcement learning, c

摘要：Reinforcement learning (RL) has been a critical paradigm for improving large language model (LLM) reasoning and agentic capabilities, but its efficiency remains a major bottleneck. Existing RL systems commonly rely on asynchronous execution to overlap rollout generation with policy optimization for enhanced efficiency. However, this approach faces inherent limitations: mild policy staleness offers only limited training efficiency gains, whereas aggressive asynchrony can degrade model quality and yields diminishing efficiency gains. The dynamic nature of LLM RL and multi-turn agentic workloads further challenges RL system design, as resource demands shift over time, making static resource allocation and generation strategy inefficient.

摘要：Large language model agents solve tasks through long sequences of tool calls, and the prevailing design has a single strong model generate every step, although many steps are routine enough for a much smaller model. Existing ways of sharing this work keep the strong model as the generator: routers and collaborative agents decide which model handles each query or step, and speculative methods check a small model's drafts one step at a time, usually against the strong model's own action. We introduce SpecAgent, a collaboration protocol that turns the strong model from the author of each step into a reviewer of steps drafted by a weak model. The weak model executes read-only tool calls as it drafts, so that every step is grounded in real observations, and holds the first action that would mod

摘要：Reasoning-conditioned embeddings can improve retrieval by progressively refining semantic constraints. However, additional reasoning may introduce over-generalized or semantically noisy abstractions that weaken retrieval specificity. Existing methods largely supervise reasoning through final retrieval outcomes, providing limited guidance over the refinement process itself. We propose AURA, a framework that directly supervises intermediate reasoning states according to how well they separate relevant documents from hard distractors. AURA further trains a lightweight utility estimator over prefix-conditioned embeddings to adapt reasoning depth at inference time. On the reasoning-intensive BRIGHT benchmark, AURA-4B achieves 34.7 average nDCG@10 while using 2.8 reasoning steps and 96 generated

The model unifies selection, binary judgment, and scoring through three decision primitives: CHOICE, NOUL, and SCORE.

摘要：Computer-use agents increasingly tackle long-horizon tasks, where running a frontier model at every step is expensive and a small open-weight model alone often fails. Weak-to-strong escalation offers a middle ground where a weak agent acts by default and hands control to a strong one only when needed. The core challenge is deciding when to escalate, which requires an uncertainty signal cheap enough to check at every step. However, even after handoff, the strong agent can still get lost, but a black-box API that the strong agent is usually served exposes no internals to monitor. To this end, we propose LEASH, a training-free framework that unleashes the strong agent only when the weak agent's latent uncertainty signals it is needed, and keeps it on a leash afterward. LEASH has three layers:

摘要：Multi-agent LLM systems rely on generative models for expert execution, workflow planning, and artifact review. Yet many coordination operations require only bounded decisions, such as selecting the next expert or judging artifact quality. Profiling three representative MAS frameworks, we find that routing and review account for 31.7-43.5% of generative-LLM tokens. However, replacing these operations with low-cost decision models introduces two interface gaps: generative planners produce execution plans and handoff instructions (planning gap), while reviewers provide actionable feedback for repairing flawed artifacts (review gap), which bounded decisions alone cannot provide. We introduce Jev-LiteMAS, a multi-agent framework that bridges both gaps by combining a lightweight decision model

摘要：Language models are often asked to make judgments: whether a proposed answer is correct, whether one statement follows logically from another, or whether a response is safe. Yet changing the instructions that specify how the judgment should be expressed can make the final answer less reliable, even for the same input. We ask whether this reflects a change in internal judgment or a failure to express it. Comparing hidden-state vectors for the same input under different instructions, we find that their differences concentrate in a low-dimensional expression subspace. We identify this subspace without benchmark labels and remove its contribution from a linear predictor to obtain an isolated judgment. Across correctness, entailment, and safety, the isolated judgment remains reliable under inst

Web systems increasingly build them by reading decisions from language models. Two axioms of rational choice are natural requirements for such decisions, because in web systems the listing and the option set are determined by other components and can change or be manipulated: the order in which the options are listed should not matter, and adding an option should not change the relative odds of the others (Luce's choice axiom). We test the standard reads, namely single-choice question (SCQ) prompting, with shuffled-order training, order averaging or sorted options, and invariant set architecture

摘要：Decision models answer typed questions about an input with one probability per option, computed in a single forward pass without generating text. Like the fast System 1 of dual-process theory, they answer at once, but their depth is fixed at training time, so they spend the same computation on easy and hard questions. Models that reason in generated text can think longer, but they pay for every extra step in decoded tokens. We present LEV, a decision model that thinks deeper by rerunning its layers in a loop instead of generating tokens. LEV builds on a language model pretrained as a loop, reads the options after every loop step and trains all steps jointly, so one checkpoint can answer at any depth.

标题：CoWorld Reasoner: Agentic Multimodal Reasoning with the Evolving Video World Model-Driven Harness
来源：arXiv
链接：https://arxiv.org/abs/2610.21910
摘要：As Vision-Language Models (VLMs) advance, they are increasingly expected to perform spatiotemporal reasoning over motion, actions, and view changes beyond what the input images show. Video World Models (VWMs) provide a natural unified engine for visual imagination by generating task-relevant visual content as additional evidence. However, existing approaches typically invoke a VWM through fixed pipelines centered on a predefined form of visual imagination, such as novel-view synthesis. To support flexible visual imagination for diverse reasoning tasks, we introduce CoWorld Reasoner, an agentic framework that uses a VWM as a unified visual reasoning engine. Its Video World Model-Driven Harness exposes multiple visual operations through tools and uses skills to guide the VLM in deciding whet
标题：Same Context, Different Agents: A Behavioral Study of Semantic Layers, Orchestration and Compaction in Data Agents
来源：arXiv

摘要：Answering questions over heterogeneous data means combining evidence from files, databases, documents and the web. Data agents automate this, but their success depends on context. Three context-engineering techniques (CETs) help by shaping it: semantic layers describe the data, orchestration splits work among agents, and compaction condenses interaction history. Existing studies validate each CET alone, leaving open how agent behavior shapes its effect. We present a comprehensive analysis of the three CETs, alone and combined, with seven large language models (LLMs) on 1,514 long-horizon tasks from five benchmarks, covering behavior, accuracy and cost. We find that data agents without CETs form three behavior groups: investigators, premature answerers that answer without inspecting data, a

标题：OS-Helix: Unifying GUI Interaction and Code Execution in Native Computer-Using Agents
来源：arXiv

摘要：Real desktop automation is neither purely visual nor purely programmatic. Agents must understand user-facing interfaces while efficiently manipulating files, scripts, and system state. However, native GUI/code coordination cannot be obtained by prompt-level tool composition. In our preliminary experiments, naively adding a code tool degrades a GUI agent, revealing that GUI/code routing must be internalized through training on high-quality hybrid data. We present OS-Helix, an end-to-end trained multimodal computer-using agent that unifies GUI actions and code execution in one action space. To construct the required supervision, we introduce application-artifact composition, pairing desktop applications with authentic file artifacts to instantiate executable Ubuntu states, and a decoupled in

摘要：Stronger language models may increasingly construct useful procedures for themselves, reducing the advantage of developer-supplied scaffolding. We investigate why this advantage persists and whether an environment-agnostic agent can be improved without environment-specific engineering. We evaluate a Codex-based agent in two nearly identical prompt variants on ARC-AGI-3, AGI Maze, and Terminal-Bench. Each variant is deployed with unchanged code, prompts, and general-purpose tools across environments, receiving environment-specific information as input. Changing only an instruction to encourage reporting difficulties and returning control for automatic continuation improves mean scores on both ARC-AGI-3 and AGI Maze, while Terminal-Bench shows small, mixed changes. Yet the general agent rema

摘要：Agentic large language models have been documented to lose reasoning capability when placed inside a harness, the software that mediates their observations and actions. To reconcile these losses, we introduce AutoOnboarder, an autonomous system that adapts an agent to a task the way a trainer onboards a new employee. It places the agent under the supervision of an intelligent ``Onboarder'' coding agent, which iteratively tailors its foundation model, prompt, and harness source code to simultaneously improve performance and decrease cost. Like a real onboarding process, the Onboarder is only given tens of examples, and all evaluation data is isolated on a separate virtual machine to prevent leakage. We report the lessons learned from building and testing AutoOnboarder on genomic-sequencing

标题：DeciCAD: Harness-Grounded Learning of Action Policies for CAD Agents
来源：arXiv

摘要：Large Language Model agents operate through closed-loop action policies whose decision space is defined by an agent harness. We investigate how this operating space shapes agent behavior and policy learning in computer-aided design (CAD), a professional domain characterized by persistent state, geometric constraints, and long-horizon procedures. We instantiate this perspective in DeciCAD, a domain-native harness that exposes semantic CAD actions, decision-oriented observations, environment feedback, and persistent state transitions. Building on this harness, we develop a learning pipeline that extracts causal decision supervision from interaction trajectories and improves the policy through supervised fine-tuning (SFT) and geometry-grounded online reinforcement learning (RL).

摘要：Organizations increasingly encode operational procedures as multi-step agent skills, here called Agent Operating Procedures (AOPs), that must be traceable, auditable, reproducible, access-controlled, and bounded in time and cost, requirements that regulated sectors make mandatory. Yet AOPs are typically kept as coarse-grained files, in which steps bundle actions, copied procedures drift apart, any step may reach any tool, and refactoring goes unchecked. We present Functional Agent Operating Procedures (FAOP), a formal theory that brings database-grade discipline to AI agent workflows. FAOP recasts each workflow as a typed function over scoped state and subjects an entire library to four progressive normal forms: Decomposed (FNF-1) splits a workflow into atomic steps, Typed (FNF-2) makes it

摘要：Large language model (LLM) agents have demonstrated strong capabilities in complex tasks, including code generation, tool use, and multi-hop question answering. Existing self-improvement methods enhance agent performance through model optimization, harness evolution, and executable artifact refinement, while recursive self-improvement (RSI) further extends optimization to the improvement mechanisms themselves. However, adapting self-improvement workflows to evolving performance bottlenecks while improving workflow orchestration through execution feedback remains a key challenge. We propose \textbf{RSIFlow}, a \textbf{R}ecursive \textbf{S}elf-\textbf{I}mprovement framework that integrates adaptive work\textbf{flow} orchestration with meta-agent capability evolution.

来源：arXiv

摘要：Large language model agents can improve their capabilities by evolving reusable natural-language skills from execution experience. In real-world deployments, this experience is distributed across data owners who cannot pool their raw data, which motivates federated skill evolution. The natural first design lets each client evolve the whole skill document and upload the result for server-side aggregation. That design is poorly matched to skill evolution for three reasons. An evolved document can still carry client-specific content distilled from private traces, repeated transmission of a nearly unchanged document spends communication on knowledge that the population already holds and the contribution of a single client is buried in a document that the server cannot meaningfully attribute.

标题：SkillNEO: Non-Elitist Evolutionary Optimization of Agent Skills
来源：arXiv

摘要：Agent skills turn procedural knowledge into reusable artifacts, allowing LLM agents to accumulate and refine expertise through experience. Building on this, skill evolution iteratively improves skills using execution feedback. However, improvement may require several interdependent edits, so low-reward versions can still be worth developing. Requiring immediate reward gains can discard useful partial repairs before their benefits emerge. Non-elitist evolution allows new versions to receive further edits despite scoring below earlier ones. For agent skills, this calls for evidence of what to preserve and repair next. We introduce SkillNEO (Non-Elitist Evolutionary Optimization for Agent Skills), which separately selects a version to use and versions to keep improving. Comparing how related

来源：arXiv

摘要：A self-improving agent has to decide which new skills to keep, and in practice it keeps whatever earns a high reward, convinces a judge model, or compresses its library, even when the skill is wrong. That is fine until the answers have to be exactly right: over a table of transactions, a total is either right or wrong. We ask a harder question: can an agent grow what it can compute with no reward, no judge, and no answer key, and still be exactly right? A single frozen model runs two nested loops over a small, exact domain-specific language (DSL). The inner loop answers new questions only when two independently written expressions agree on every record. The outer loop discovers its own missing capability and authors an operator for it, admitted only when an independent second implementatio

摘要：Large language model (LLM) agents for health can accumulate reusable textual skills from task feedback, such as calculation criteria, measurement time points, and formula units. Deciding which skills to retain is consequential: useful rules improve later answers, while faulty generalizations propagate errors. We propose CausalEvo, a method for causal skill self-evolution that estimates the relative effects of deliberately changed skill sets while holding the model weights, feedback cases, and rule count fixed. At each evolution step, a frozen LLM proposes candidate rules, which are pooled with the incumbent skills so that the current skill set remains a feasible choice. Paired skill replacements against shared background rules are scored on the same feedback cases; least squares converts t

摘要：Multi-modal agents have made significant progress in interacting with open worlds. However, their ability to self-evolve remains limited. Supervised fine-tuning enables imitation but not active experience organization, while outcome-based reinforcement learning promotes exploration yet underuses intermediate trajectory information. Therefore, we propose EvolvingBrain, which uses an adaptive skill system as the brain for agent self-evolution, consisting of two following components. Stratified Skill Self-Evolution: extracts Procedural Patterns and Problematic Patterns from model-specific trajectories, summarizes experience by generating skills, and evolves through multiple interactions with the open world, ultimately forming a Stratified Skill Architecture consisting of Domain, Plan, and Act
标题：Evolving Together, Failing Apart: The Skill-Policy Co-evolution Trap in Self-Improving Agents
来源：arXiv
链接：https://arxiv.org/abs/2610.20845
摘要：Skill-policy co-evolution, in which an agent's policy model and its skill bank improve each other during training, is a promising paradigm for self-improving agents. Current evaluations score the co-evolved policy on the final bank it trained with (the delivered bank). After deployment, however, skills may be rewritten, added or removed more frequently than the policy model is retrained, leaving the policy to operate on a drifted skill bank that neither the training objective nor existing evaluation protocols address. In this paper, we first establish, through theoretical and empirical analysis, that the fragility hidden by this blind spot is not incidental. The acceptance rule these methods share (cooperative acceptance) ties a policy's competence to the bank it co-evolved with, leaving i

摘要：Learning from experience requires recovering reusable knowledge and determining when it applies to a new situation. We introduce OntoAct, a hypothesis-based neuro-symbolic framework built on ontological abstraction. OntoAct turns individual experiences into axioms over entity types, relations, and conditions, making their underlying patterns reusable across situations. A large language model (LLM) uses this world knowledge to propose hypotheses and actions, while a symbolic verifier assesses their supporting conditions against current observations. Verification identifies missing evidence, and new observations and intervention outcomes update hypothesis assessments and guide subsequent actions. We also introduce Tacit-FLE, a benchmark built on the Factorio Learning Environment (FLE) for di

标题：The Self-Improvement Problem

摘要：With the rise of large language models, agentic systems are becoming increasingly autonomous, as they write code, call tools, revise prompts, and propose modifications to their own components. This autonomy raises a fundamental question for safe self-improvement: can an automated gate like a reward model or an automated reviewer reliably decide whether a proposed update should be accepted? The difficulty is structural. The gate must be a terminating, computable procedure, while the property we ultimately care about, namely whether an update is a genuine semantic improvement, depends on potentially unbounded program behavior. We formalize this mismatch by modeling agents as programs and defining improvement in terms of a semantic score that need not be computable. We study two evaluation ab

摘要：Recursive Self-Improvement (RSI) has gained wide attention for its ability to work with limited data. In a proposer-solver loop, a proposer model writes training tasks and a solver model learns to solve them through reinforcement learning. Such loops have succeeded in mathematics and coding, where every answer can be checked automatically. Open-ended expert tasks, like clinical report generations, have no answer key, which makes simple question-answer generation not viable. Here the proposer must also write a rubric that lists the content an answer should include and the errors it should avoid. However, the unique challenge behind model-written rubric is the comprehensiveness of it. For naively generated rubric, solvers tend to exploit it, naming the expected topics without the substance b

摘要：Current value alignment evaluations for large language models (LLMs) heavily rely on output compliance, overlooking whether LLMs maintain value consistency when alternating between generator and evaluator roles. Such consistency is increasingly important because modern LLM agents and alignment pipelines often rely on the same LLM to both generate actions and evaluate their acceptability. To mitigate this limitation, we propose VALCON, a role-driven data construction framework that operationalizes value consistency into three benchmark suites (VAB-Consistency, VAB-Boundary, VAB-Challenge) via dual-role variation. By systematically pairing an LLM's generative behavior with its evaluative judgments under identical principles, VALCON synthesizes target evaluation data that exposes hidden value

来源：arXiv

摘要：We present Screwtape, a pipeline that converts real agent transcripts into attacks that evade action-only monitors. An LLM attacker edits a transcript so that the agent causes a specified harm, such as leaking an API key or spawning an unmonitored agent. The edited actions are never executed, so we use an LLM verifier to reject attacks that are inconsistent with the original transcript or below a severity bar. The attacker revises the edit until the monitor no longer flags it. We applied Screwtape to 94 Claude Code and Codex transcripts from Redwood Research staff, optimizing against our own monitors. Across 252 runs, it produced 35 attacks that passed the verifier and evaded these monitors. Six of them, confirmed valid by human review, also evaded a held-out monitor provided by a frontier

We introduce Realtime-Bench, a suite of carefully curated dynamic tasks where delayed actions directly affect success. Under Wall Clock, where environments advance according to actual inference latency, the best success rate reaches only 44% and the best Pass^3 is only 36%, demonstrating that real-time interaction remains challenging.

Large language models (LLMs) have demonstrated strong capabilities in several components of this process, including inductive reasoning, hypothesis generation, and data analysis. However, prior work typically evaluates these abilities in isolation, leaving open how models integrate them across a full inquiry cycle. In this work, we introduce a framework for evaluating LLMs' inquiry capabilities in a unified, interactive setting.

An exact grader records the first unmet obligation of each failed episode and the harness limit, if any, that ended it. Across 21 model and harness configurations, the visible menu is the only one of the three pressures that act on the model with a large penalty, and this penalty tracks truncation at the completion cap.

We use this two-dimensional view to conduct a unified study that quantifies the robustness of current frontier models, traces the mechanisms behind perturbation-induced failures, and draws implications for robustness-oriented training. Through controlled evaluations on APEX-Agents and Toolathlon, we find that perturbations consistently degrade performance, while the dominant vulnerabilities vary across task environments.

摘要：When humans collaborate with AI agents on long-horizon tasks, what happens to the agents' contributions? For solving long-horizon tasks, humans place greater importance on ongoing interaction with AI agents (e.g., revising plans) than on an agent's ability to complete the task in a single attempt. However, most agentic benchmarks have focused more on automation. Strong performance on such benchmarks does not imply effective real-world collaboration. Professional workflows offer a useful setting, as they often involve interdependent steps. To address this gap, we introduce Kolab, a new dataset of 115+ hours of screen recordings of 50 professionals from 40 occupations collaborating with agents on realistic, long-horizon problems.

Moving the misconception from hypothesis to plan increased failure by 32.2% in PersistQueue and 28.9% in Dijkstra after matching the experimental mix.

Calibration and held-out sets have disjoint benchmark questions and training-example families. A separate review of all 83 candidate matches for 80 sampled training items measures item-level false removal.

We introduce DIB-Bench, a benchmark that measures this deployment-integrity blindness across 7,560 scored examples, six tamper types, and an evaluator ladder from regex scorers through LLM judges to GPT-5-nano. Stronger evaluators accept more tampered outputs: mean acceptance rises from 88.6% (rule-based) to 94.1% (GPT-5-nano), and a trigger-conditional tamper invisible on the evaluation suite produces 48-100% harmful outputs, rising with model capability.

摘要：Label-free evaluation methods, such as self-consistency filtering, majority-vote aggregation, and agreement-based reliability scoring, rely on an implicit assumption that consistency can serve as a proxy for correctness when ground-truth labels are unavailable or expensive to obtain. In this paper, we test this assumption directly. Using four financial QA datasets (multiple-choice and free-form), ten consistency dimensions, and two frontier model families, we measure the joint distribution of consistency and accuracy at the level of individual examples rather than in aggregate. We find that 60% of all incorrect answers fall in the high-consistency region (consistency $\geq$ 0.8), and that 77.7% of these show complete answer collapse, i.e. identical wrong answers across all perturbation var

摘要：AI agents take actions through tools. Some actions are sensitive, so guards that supervise them must themselves be evaluated reliably. Yet the data used to evaluate a guard can include cues that make labels predictable without measuring the intended safety construct, and those cues can also influence guard decisions. We introduce a three-level shortcut-auditing framework and audit completed LinuxArena trajectories and two TS-Bench-derived step datasets. We distinguish label predictability, observational guard association, and paired decision sensitivity. In LinuxArena, shorter average shell commands strongly predict trajectory labels. In AgentDojo-Traj, exact-tool lookup falls from F_1=.901 with mixed-domain folds to .495 under domain holdout. In AgentHarm-Traj, released TS-Guard F_1 falls

摘要：Modern agentic systems extend language models with external tools, enabling them to complete complex tasks through multi-turn interactions. As these agents are deployed in consequential settings, they are often constrained by policies governing pricing, privacy, confirmation, safety, and other requirements. However, existing evaluation methods leave a critical gap: capability benchmarks measure what agents can accomplish, while content-safety red-teaming measures harmful generations, but neither tests whether agents comply with predefined policies during otherwise valid tool use. Such policy violations are difficult to audit because their effects may emerge only after several turns, span multiple tool calls, or surface in downstream systems. We propose PROBE (Policy Rule Observation via Be

摘要：Corporate financial disclosures often unfold over time, with announcements, prepared remarks, and discussion spanning multiple high-frequency return intervals. Financial NLP benchmarks can therefore suffer from a within-event timing mismatch when the prediction target begins before the textual or audio input used by a model could be complete. Chronological train--test splits do not prevent this mismatch, because it occurs inside individual events rather than across samples. We introduce an Availability Contract, which requires a benchmark to state the input boundary, evidence for input availability, the outcome start, and the claims supported by that evidence. We apply this framework to 552 earnings calls from 24 firms. For each call, we hold the return endpoint fixed and compare the previ

摘要：Task completion alone does not determine whether a stateful agent satisfied its obligations, and a recorded judgment does not guarantee that its supporting evidence remains valid. We present AgentEval, a system that carries a contract-bound assessment record through tool execution, state and event capture, report qualification, and case maintenance. It separates what the agent did, what the evidence establishes, and whether the conclusion is supported for present use. On 32 tool-world administrations, independent checks agree on all 30 complete episodes, distinguishing satisfied, violated, and unresolved obligations; two interrupted administrations are retained. Controlled interventions on 48 evidence views expose 36 binding faults missed by hash-only checks without changing agent behavior

来源：arXiv

摘要：Reordering multiple-choice options can change a model's answer, an effect studied as selection bias (a preference for certain option letters) and as order sensitivity (changes in answers across option orderings). We connect these perspectives through the pooled selection-rate standard deviation (pooled SD), which measures how unevenly option letters are selected across questions and orderings. When every option of each question appears equally often at each position, the pooled SD is exactly the product of two label-free factors: the flip rate and the positional skew. The flip rate is the fraction of questions whose chosen option changes across orderings; the positional skew is the standard deviation of option-letter selection rates among those questions.

摘要：Large language models (LLMs) can often tell when they are being tested. This ability, known as evaluation awareness, can lead models to act more cautiously during safety evaluations than in real use. Existing work has studied evaluation awareness almost entirely in English, although models serve users in many languages. Indic languages are spoken by over a billion people, yet evaluation awareness remains almost entirely unstudied in them. We test four instruction-tuned models from three families in five Indic languages alongside English. A set of cues varies whether the model is told that it is monitored and whether the monitoring is a safety test. Models refuse harmful requests more often when they are told that they are being tested. This increase appears in all four models and all six l

摘要：Confidence scores determine whether an LLM answer is accepted, reviewed, or regenerated, yet scalar recalibration can only correct errors visible through the score itself. We introduce RADAR (Repair, Adopt, and Diagnose After Recalibration), a reliability framework that separates confidence repair from deciding whether to deploy the repair and auditing the errors that remain. Under squared loss, we decompose prediction risk into outcome noise, information hidden by the score, and mapping error; restricting repair to order-preserving maps additionally introduces a pooling gap. For repair, we propose Probe-Anchored Isotonic Calibration (PAIC), which learns a monotone map from correctness-probe predictions on unlabeled target prompts. PAIC's excess risk depends on the probe's score-conditiona

摘要：An ensemble of language models is a jury, not an electorate. The answers are testimony from witnesses of unknown reliability, and the question is not what the majority said but who is credible. Most ensemble methods assign each expert a fixed reputation, often learned from labels. We ask whether it can instead be inferred from the pattern of agreement and disagreement among the experts. We model the experts as a jury: each question has a latent true answer, each expert reports it with unknown reliability, and those reliabilities are estimated by Expectation Maximisation (EM) from unlabelled answer configurations alone. We show that its decision rule reduces to a log-odds weighted linear score over the experts' answer distributions. What changes is not how the jury votes, but how it learns

摘要：Mathematical agents are commonly evaluated by answer accuracy or proof acceptance. We introduce ClaimScope, a 72-task benchmark for auditing proposed claims through a verdict, scope, counterexample, and repair. Tasks cover optimizer-state transport, finite-horizon affine recurrences, and exact $2\times2$ linear algebra. We evaluate Qwen3-8B with direct generation and four matched two-pass conditions, each starting from the same draft. A witness checker evaluates only the model's submitted state, without consulting reference verdicts or supplying a replacement witness. Its feedback still conveys information about validity: a verified refutation establishes that the claim is false, and rejection reasons can suggest structural fixes. In this evaluation, verifier feedback yields $23/39$ accept

摘要：Recent multimodal large language models have advanced video understanding, but existing benchmarks mainly evaluate whether models can interpret observed visual content. In real-world scenarios, assistants must additionally anticipate what assistance is needed and decide when to provide it. To address this gap, we introduce \textsc{P$^3$IBench}, a benchmark for proactive video understanding in real-life streaming scenarios. It evaluates three complementary capabilities: daily perception, risk prediction and intervention. We benchmark 12 representative open-source and proprietary video-language models, including streaming and adapted non-streaming systems. Our evaluation shows that current models struggle to make well-calibrated response decisions. Finally, we construct additional proactive

摘要：Large language models (LLMs) deployed as conversational agents are increasingly expected to follow procedural logic. While factual hallucination has received extensive attention, a different failure mode has been overlooked: procedural hallucination, in which an agent produces individually fluent and factually plausible utterances while deviating from the intended conversational process. We introduce DialFork, the first benchmark to measure this failure mode on raw dialogue text. DialFork is built by forking conformant dialogues at controlled turn positions and injecting one of four hallucination types, yielding 36,278 dialogues across 24 tasks in 12 domains; 30 human annotators validate the construction. We define three evaluation tasks that characterize procedural deviation at three gran

摘要：When a speaker says ``some students passed'', listeners infer that not all of them did. Reasoning models now let users decide how long a model thinks before it answers, but we do not know what extra thinking does to such everyday inferences. We study this directly: we keep a model's weights fixed, change only how much it thinks, and record which reading it chooses. A second tool cuts the model's own reasoning at successive points and asks for an answer, showing where the reading changes. Thinking makes models read logical words as logic: it cancels the implicatures of \emph{some} (\emph{not all}) and \emph{or} (\emph{not both}) in most tested open reasoning models and in GPT-5, while context-driven inferences such as indirect answers improve. The trace shows why: models first entertain the

摘要：Test-time search can improve agent performance by exploring alternative actions and using a critic to select promising branches. We study this approach in terminal-based computer-use environments, which expose only a partial view of a large underlying state, and find that the Monte Carlo tree search (MCTS) configuration we evaluate does not significantly improve task success. We identify two sources of poor critic performance: the agent's observations omit environment state needed for evaluation, and intermediate states offer limited evidence of whether a trajectory will succeed. At intermediate states, critics rank continuations only modestly better than chance, and environment access improves this little. We study when to invoke a critic and what access to give it to evaluate a node. Our

摘要：One of the first steps of a research pipeline is generating ideas. Large Language Models (LLMs) are increasingly used to automate this step, but most of this work optimizes the quality of individual ideas, while overlooking diversity. In our work, we study document-grounded ideation, focusing on increasing the diversity of LLM generated ideas and ensuring they are high quality. Given prior papers, a model must propose a set of ideas that are each high-quality and clearly distinct from one another, while also being grounded in the input documents. To optimize for this, we propose training with a set-level reinforcement learning objective. In our setup, in a single generation, the model writes K structured idea cards grounded in the source papers, and the set is scored jointly, where each id

摘要：Despite their extensive pretraining knowledge and strong reasoning capabilities, large language models (LLMs) struggle to adaptively gather information in experimental design tasks. We study how to amortize sequential Bayesian experimental design (BED) into an LLM by explicitly training the reasoning that guides action selection using information-gain rewards. Our approach specifies the experimental generative model independently of the LLM's own beliefs, allowing us to optimize expected information gain under a model of our choosing. We investigate the design choices for amortization, including alternative generative-model constructions, reward estimation, hypothesis-space specification, multi-step objectives, and computational costs relative to training- and inference-time BED baselines.

摘要：A language model can generate several solutions to the same problem, some leading to correct answers and others to incorrect ones. Many post-training methods turn these trajectories into learning signals using supervision from reference answers, verifiable feedback, or external teachers. Without such supervision, learning from the model's own generations becomes less straightforward, as their correctness cannot be reliably assessed. An incorrect solution may nevertheless contain useful intermediate reasoning, so its value as supervision need not be determined solely by its final answer. Can a model improve by learning from its unverified peer solutions without first determining which are correct?

摘要：To improve task performance while encouraging desirable response properties, LLM post-training often combines a primary reward (e.g., correctness) with auxiliary rewards (e.g., brevity or efficiency). However, how these rewards are aggregated can critically affect training outcomes. We show that symmetric aggregation, which treats reward channels equally, can induce a failure where aggregate reward improves while primary-task performance degrades, even when individual rewards are meaningful. We investigate this aggregation-induced failure through a one-step multi-reward decision formulation, characterizing when it constitutes multi-reward hacking. We prove that, under symmetric aggregation, deterministic conditional-mean GRPO converges to auxiliary-favoring behavior when auxiliary rewards

SIF compares ranked token-level self-certainty profiles across multiple windows and peers, assigning positive rewards only when both levels of voting provide sufficient support. Sample and group level filtering determines which responses contribute to policy optimization. Experiments on three backbones across 12 mathematical and scientific reasoning benchmarks show t

摘要：Reinforcement learning with self-generated labels, such as majority vote over a model's own samples, often recovers most of the gain of training with verifiable rewards. This is puzzling from the usual prompt-level view, in which majority vote only returns a model's modal answer and cannot add information about correctness. We argue that the relevant unit is the batch-level update. Because parameters are shared, a prompt's own gradient accounts for less than 1\% of the change in that prompt's output at practical batch sizes, so a wrong label matters only to the extent that label errors share a direction across prompts. We decompose the majority-vote update into shrinkage and misdirection relative to the gold update, and show that misdirection vanishes with batch size whenever errors are in

摘要：We investigate whether variation in information density across chain-of-thought (CoT) reasoning steps predicts answer correctness and can serve as a controllable inference-time target. We prompt frozen pretrained models to solve problems via CoT and measure the density of each reasoning step with two independent metrics: LP variance (how unevenly information is distributed across steps, computed as the variance in mean per-token negative log-likelihood) and the Caveman compression ratio. We then test whether density correlates with, and can be steered to improve, answer correctness. Experiments across six model scales, two training paradigms, and 60 GSM8K problems yield four main findings. First, lower LP variance predicts correctness in supervised fine-tuned (SFT) models, but this relatio

摘要：Latent chain-of-thought replaces written reasoning steps with continuous hidden states, giving models additional steps to compute before answering. It remains unclear what computation these steps actually perform. High task accuracy and decodable intermediate answers do not establish that a model uses its latent chain to reach an answer. We study this question across twenty-one model-task configurations covering three training recipes, three reasoning tasks, and two backbones. We combine chain deletion and content replacement with probes and trajectory analysis to test whether the chain affects the answer, what it encodes, and how its states change. On logical tasks, COCONUT often carries an answer that is already readable before the chain begins. Its states settle early, and deleting the

We disentangle these roles by crossing verified evidence versions with the traces generated from each and answering from the same traces and evidence under two configurations: continuation of the model's own thinking and a separate answer call. Across three model families (gpt-oss, Gemma4, Qwen3) on HotpotQA and MuSiQue, the separate call raises evidence-following over continuation by 29.9 to 60.6 points. On the same pairs, removing the trace lowers accuracy by similar amounts under both configurations. Yet continuation repeats the stale conclusion in most conflicts, and the separate call follows the current evidence far more often. Benefitin

标题：Enhancing Multimodal RLVR with Pairwise Token Contrast and Adaptive Trajectory Confidence
来源：arXiv
链接：https://arxiv.org/abs/2610.21671
摘要：Reinforcement learning with verifiable rewards (RLVR) improves multimodal reasoning, but group-relative policy optimization broadcasts a single sequence-level advantage to every token of a response, although errors usually localize to a few decisive steps. Recent self-distilled variants refine credit with a teacher--student likelihood gap. However, this signal cannot tell whether it relies on the image or on a language shortcut, and is applied uniformly even when the teacher is uninformative. To address this, we propose Pairwise token contrast and Adaptive trajectory ConfidencE (PACE). Pairwise token contrast scores each response under four teacher views, crossing a correct or incorrect answer hint with the image present or removed, and compares the two hints for every token, which cancels
标题：Bellman-Consistent Trajectory RL for LLM Arithmetic Reasoning
来源：arXiv

摘要：To address sparse terminal rewards in LLM arithmetic reasoning, we propose a Bellman-consistent trajectory RL method. Our framework introduces Trajectory Bellman Residual Minimization (TBRM) to transform sparse rewards into dense token-level signals. We integrate a Reinforce Leave-One-Out (RLOO) group strategy to reduce gradient variance of Bellman residuals and use hindsight goal relabeling to accelerate intermediate learning. Evaluated on the Countdown task, our method alleviates optimization bottlenecks and stabilizes gradient variance significantly better than GRPO. The TBRM-RLOO framework boosts Pass@1 to 0.55--0.64 and achieves a state-of-the-art Pass@16 accuracy of 76.0--84.0\%, outperforming the SFT, IPO/DPO, and RLOO baselines. Our approach demonstrates exceptional single-sample e
标题：Each Reward to Its Relevant Tokens: Reward-Specific Token-Level Credit Assignment for Multi-Reward RL
来源：arXiv
链接：https://arxiv.org/abs/2610.21439
摘要：Language models are increasingly trained against several verifiable rewards at once, such as the correctness and the format of a tool call, or the individual constraints of a complex instruction. Reward-decoupled normalization (GDPO) normalizes each reward separately so that different reward combinations keep distinct advantages, but it still spreads every reward's advantage evenly over the whole response, although each verifier checks only a few positions. We propose MRTPO, which assigns the advantage of each reward to the tokens relevant to it, using the information its verifier checks, without auxiliary models or token-level annotations. For each reward, the policy replays its own response with and without that reward's verifier information, and the per-token Jensen-Shannon distance bet

摘要：Agentic knowledge graph question answering(KGQA) relies on sequences of executable operations, but trajectory-level rewards obscure their individual contributions. Successful trajectories may contain ineffective operations, while failed trajectories may contain useful ones. To assess individual operations, we propose OpCredit, an operationaware policy-learning framework that combines downstream outcome credit with immediate transition credit: Branch Outcome Credit (BOC) reuses ordinary rollouts to compare terminal task rewards observed after different operations under matched navigation contexts; Frontier Transition Credit (FTC) measures operation-induced changes in answer-conditioned frontier potential. The two complementary signals jointly supervise the corresponding decision spans durin
标题：KnowGPO: Knowledge-Grouped Policy Optimization for Search Agents
来源：arXiv
链接：https://arxiv.org/abs/2610.22331
摘要：Deep search agents solve knowledge-intensive tasks through long-horizon, multi-turn interactions, where assigning credit to individual search decisions is fundamentally difficult. Outcome-based reinforcement learning provides only a single terminal reward shared across an entire trajectory. Recent process-supervision methods aim to assign credit at finer granularity, but they typically anchor credit to either surface-level trajectory states or model-internal signals, both of which become unreliable in deep search where observations are heterogeneous and retrieved contexts are long and noisy. We propose KnowGPO, a reinforcement learning framework that aligns trajectories by the task-relevant knowledge they have acquired rather than by their surface observations. For each query, KnowGPO deco
标题：Gibbs-Gap Policy Optimization for Off-Policy RL with Verifiable Rewards
来源：arXiv
链接：https://arxiv.org/abs/2610.20814
摘要：Reinforcement learning with verifiable rewards often trains language models on responses generated by a different, possibly stale behavior policy. Correcting this mismatch with learner-to-behavior importance weights can introduce high variance for long responses. We introduce Gibbs-Gap Policy Optimization (GGPO), which minimizes a log-mean-exp contrast of KL-adjusted rewards among responses to the same prompt, without learner-to-behavior importance weights. We derive GGPO from KL-regularized policy optimization: on policy, its population loss is exactly the KL-regularized optimality gap, and under suitable coverage the learner's single-response expected reward is at least the behavior policy's best-of-$K$ reward, minus terms for the raw finite-group loss, regularization, and finite trainin
标题：EliteReplay: Preserving Diverse Solutions in RL Post-Training via Quality-Diversity Search
来源：arXiv
链接：https://arxiv.org/abs/2610.22290
摘要：Reinforcement learning has become a common post-training technique to improve the accuracy of LLMs on verifiable tasks. However, such training can narrow the set of solutions the model can produce. Several approaches have attempted to address this behavior-sharpening effect, but they often optimize metrics that do not reflect the diversity of correct solutions. Ideally, we want a model that can produce multiple good solutions, not only a single reliable one. We propose EliteReplay, a post-training recipe that pairs GRPO with an "elite" archive built by quality-diversity search. Before training, we use the frozen base model to collect solutions that span distinct approaches; during training, GRPO is combined with a replay loss on this archive. The result is a post-trained model that improve
标题：Baselines and Score Centering in Policy Gradient Estimation
来源：arXiv
链接：https://arxiv.org/abs/2610.22263
摘要：Reinforcement learning has become a widely used approach to post-training large language models. In a typical implementation, learning is off-policy: The policy generating the responses differs from the policy being trained because of training-inference mismatch or policy staleness in asynchronous training. This discrepancy is commonly addressed by importance sampling, whose ratio is usually regularized in practice through truncation, masking, or clipping. Under regularized importance sampling, the importance-weighted policy gradient is no longer invariant to constant shifts in the reward. This invariance is recovered by using the covariance between the reward and the importance-weighted score as the estimand, which coincides with the policy gradient when the ratio is not regularized. This
标题：Specification Gaming and a Constrained Reinforcement Learning Mitigation in a Cleaning Gridworld
来源：arXiv

摘要：Reinforcement learning agents optimize exactly the reward signal they are given, which can diverge sharply from an intended true objective when that signal is only a proxy for it; this failure mode is known as specification gaming. Existing evidence for this failure mode is largely observational, with comparatively few demonstrations pairing a controlled, deliberately constructed proxy/true gap with a mitigation that carries a verifiable guarantee rather than only an empirical improvement. We construct a minimal gridworld in which a cleaning-robot agent can either genuinely remove dirt or conceal it from a cheap sensor, and show that a standard deep Q-network trained only on the sensor's proxy reward converges to a policy that games it completely, reaching near-maximal proxy reward while n
标题：Effectiveness of Hidden-State Probes for Localizing Reasoning Failures
来源：arXiv

摘要：Verifying the final answer of a long reasoning trace may show that the trace is wrong but it does not distinguish three cases. The problem may lie beyond the model's capability, another attempt would succeed, or one step in an otherwise recoverable trace made the trace fail. Standard hidden-state probes are trained on final-answer correctness, a label that conflates these cases. Monte Carlo rollouts distinguish the cases and locate the failing step at additional inference cost. We test the hidden states of 4B and 8B reasoning models for the failure type and the failing step and compare each probe with the strongest baseline that uses no hidden states. On incorrect 8B traces, the confidence probe, a calibrated correctness probe at a midpoint cutoff, misses 81% of cases in which a single ste

来源：arXiv

摘要：Reinforcement learning (RL) can become off-policy due to training-inference mismatch, mini-batch updates, and asynchronous training.The resulting mismatch is especially harmful in Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) models, where rollout--training discrepancies can change routing decisions and lead to router drift. Rollout Routing Replay (R3) mitigates this mismatch by reusing expert selections from the rollout stage during training. Our analysis shows that routing replay introduces gradient bias by losing contributions from experts selected by the training router but not the rollout router. To address this, we propose Router Drift Control (RDC), which uses routing disagreement between rollout and training as a signal of off-policy staleness and selectively rejects high-drift responses.

标题：Two Sample Sizes in Test-Time LLM Ensembling: Buffered ERM and Minimax Theory
来源：arXiv
链接：https://arxiv.org/abs/2610.21363
摘要：Test-time scaling can improve the performance of large language models by generating multiple answers to a question and aggregating them. Weighted ensembles extend this idea by drawing answers from several models, with the weights determining how often each model is used. Learning these weights from a training dataset involves two sample sizes: $Q$ labeled questions and $N$ generations per model and question. We study their interplay through the clean risk, the population error of the ensemble's infinite-generation voting rule. Under a margin condition with exponent $β$, we show that empirical risk minimization (ERM) with a calibrated margin buffer achieves excess risk of order $Q^{-1/2}+N^{-β/2}$, up to logarithmic factors, for fixed numbers of models and candidate answers.

标题：Recursive Offline Distillation via Entropy Gain Sampling and Answer Mixing
来源：arXiv
链接：https://arxiv.org/abs/2610.20914
摘要：Distillation of reasoning chains from Large Language Models (LLMs) into their smaller siblings is a standard training approach. Frequently, researchers do not have full access to a teacher model and its internal representations, which limits the resulting performance. We propose a recursive offline distillation method combining two components: entropy-based sampling for selective distillation and answer mixing. Specifically, for three open models (3-4B), at each epoch, we sample reasoning chains weighted by entropy difference with an auxiliary medium model (70-72B) and, next, supplement thinking traces with single-token ground truth answers. Our approach consistently outperforms naive distillation with comparable data budgets ($57.15 \pm 1.01$ vs 51.61 on average) and offers a much steeper
标题：Confidence-Calibrated Inference Expansion for Evaluator-Guided Test-Time Reasoning
来源：arXiv
链接：https://arxiv.org/abs/2610.20836
摘要：Evaluator-guided reasoning presents a local control problem at every step: trust the current answer, return a fallback, or spend more inference. We formulate this choice as a compute-aware three-action controller, scoring terminal actions by predicted answer success and expansion by a rollout-based continuation-success surrogate, with compute cost priced explicitly. A local action-gap analysis characterizes when score errors can change a decision, while an expected regret bound accounts for errors along the realized expansion path. Guided by this analysis, we learn and calibrate action-specific confidence estimates, with local uncertainty penalties for ambiguous decisions. On held-out width expansion and revision tasks, the controller improves observed utility over calibration-selected fix
标题：Failure Is the Mother of Success: Recovering Supervision with Grounding Hindsight
来源：arXiv
链接：https://arxiv.org/abs/2610.21018
摘要：When every rollout for a problem fails, GRPO receives neither a successful exemplar nor a nonzero group-relative advantage, so it learns nothing from exactly the problems it most needs to learn. The failed reasoning can nevertheless suggest what to try next. We present Replay-Selected Hindsight Distillation (RSHD), which turns failed attempts into an additional, tested source of supervision during GRPO training. The policy writes a corrective note about each failed attempt without seeing a reference answer or solution, then re-solves the problem with the note in context. A note is admitted only if its replays succeed more often than the original group did, after screening for notes that state the answer, and an admitted replay is distilled into the plain-prompt policy. Because admission is

摘要：Real-world software engineering rarely consists of isolated changes. Features, migrations, and systematic fixes often unfold across multiple pull requests (PRs), requiring coordinated modifications across a repository. Yet most executable repository-level benchmarks retain a single issue or PR as the task unit, while existing multi-PR settings rely on coarse aggregation and structure-agnostic evaluation. This mismatch obscures dependencies among changes and limits progress measurement and learning signals for long-horizon code agents. We introduce WEAVE, a framework that transforms verified PR histories into executable, dependency-structured tasks.

Successful rollouts provide autoregressive self-imitation targets, whereas failed rollouts receive Reminder-conditioned reverse-KL supervision from a teacher that re-evaluates the same student-generated prefixes.

摘要：Large language models (LLMs) are expanding from assisting scientific research and engineering to autonomously developing and improving AI systems, advancing AI for AI (AI4AI) as a pathway toward recursive self-improvement (RSI). Workflow-driven machine learning engineering (MLE) systems provide a practical path toward this pursuit through complex orchestration that manages long-horizon experimentation, while recent MLE systems adopt model-directed interaction, allowing models to autonomously organize experiments and adapt optimization strategies based on execution feedback. However, feedback from each experiment reflects several preceding decisions, and a long MLE run contains many such costly experiments. Training must therefore select useful supervision from long interaction trajectories

摘要：Language-model agents can accumulate interaction feedback, but reliably turning that feedback into reusable experience remains challenging. Existing methods either optimize external experience scaffolds or train experience-related behavior on specific task distributions, leaving open whether experience learning itself can become a transferable model capability. Training such a capability calls for supervision beyond isolated tasks, which mainly support in-episode problem solving rather than revealing what knowledge remains useful across episodes. In this work, we introduce MetaExp, a scalable framework that trains this capability through verifiable task families with controlled cross-task structure. Each family preserves a reusable factor while varying task-specific realizations, enabling

摘要：Most existing agentic reinforcement learning methods assume single-session trajectories, where interaction proceeds within one continuously accumulated context. However, agentic techniques such as context compaction and subagent forking may produce trajectories spanning multiple sessions, creating a mismatch between the single-session training assumption and inference-time execution. Therefore, we introduce Multi-Session Agentic Reinforcement Learning, a more general setting that supports an arbitrary number of sessions within a trajectory. Under this setting, a widely adopted method is to broadcast trajectory-level advantages to all sessions, but this does not distinguish contributions from various sessions or guide session allocation within trajectories.

While large language models have recently shown promise for social media stress prediction, relying on accuracy can obscure false positives. Also, prompt revisions yield inconsistent gains across models and tasks, with unclear links to strategy combinations and instruction changes. By comparing six methods on social media stress and emotion data across two model sizes, we found that GEPA and its extension combining instructions from two prompts (GEPA+merge) improved prediction over initial prompts in several settings. We also identified five prompting strategies associated with development gains. These strategies included directing attention to emotional evidence, distinguishing current

摘要：Self-generated In-Context Learning (ICL) enables LLMs to synthesize their own few-shot demonstrations, often outperforming manual prompts. However, existing methods filter demonstrations by observation, assuming a rationale is high-quality if it leads to the correct output. We show such filtering suffers from \textit{observational equivalence}, whereby both faithful causal rationales and spurious post-hoc rationales can yield same outputs and are statistically indistinguishable from observation alone. Inspired by independent causal mechanisms, we argue that faithful rationales imply \textit{transfer invariance}, in which causal rationales should remain effective across logically similar samples.

摘要：Generative simulation can automate robot environment construction, but physically valid environments are not necessarily useful for training. The challenge is to identify environments that address a policy's failures and supervision that helps it overcome them. We introduce CoDA, a framework in which a simulation data engine and an action policy co-evolve through a shared heterogeneous memory of environment construction, policy failures, and learning progress. The memory compiles validated diagnoses from a vision-language critic into generation programs that recreate difficulties and training programs that help the policy overcome them. We further propose Text2potential to convert these diagnoses into staged potentials for action-chunk value learning, providing dense supervision for policy

来源：arXiv

摘要：High-fidelity user simulators are essential for evaluating and training agents in interactive environments. However, current LLM-based simulators struggle with reliability issues, such as goal omission and policy non-compliance. We propose ARGUS (Agenda-dRiven Goal-oriented User Simulator), a neuro-symbolic framework that maintains the user's goal state using a dynamic agenda stack manipulated via symbolic operations. By rigorously decoupling state tracking from natural language generation, ARGUS facilitates strict goal progression and constraint-aligned interactions. For cost-efficient deployment, we distill ARGUS into compact models using a unified pipeline: evaluator-guided SFT followed by online RL with dense step-level rewards. To rigorously evaluate behavioral fidelity, we introduce

标题：SHRED: Self-Play for Heterogeneous Road-Users without Expert Demonstrations
来源：arXiv
链接：https://arxiv.org/abs/2610.20866
摘要：Realistic traffic simulation and autonomous planning both depend on modeling interactions among heterogeneous road users whose dynamics, constraints, and behaviors differ fundamentally. Existing approaches predominantly learn realistic interaction behavior from large-scale human driving demonstrations. In this work, we ask whether such behavior can instead emerge purely through self-play. We present SHRED, a framework that jointly trains vehicles, pedestrians, and cyclists through large-scale heterogeneous self-play from random initialization, without demonstrations or logged-trajectory replay. SHRED combines type-specific dynamics and objectives with procedural scenario generation and per-agent randomization, allowing diverse behaviors to emerge through closed-loop interaction. On the Way

来源：arXiv
链接：https://arxiv.org/abs/2610.22070
摘要：Streaming vision-language models (VLMs) must continuously integrate information from the past while remaining responsive to current observations and user queries. Existing memory mechanisms typically compress, retrieve, or cache historical observations and reintroduce them into the input context, forcing historical memory and current observations to compete for limited context. We propose MaLoW, a streaming memory framework that instead internalizes historical context into evolving lightweight parameter updates. MaLoW uses a recurrent HyperNetwork to incrementally consolidate incoming video observations into fixed-size LoRA weights, allowing historical information to be carried forward without revisiting the full video stream. In doing so, MaLoW represents history as weights, while keeping

摘要：Large language models increasingly rely on external memory to answer queries grounded in long-horizon histories such as multi-session dialogues and lengthy documents. However, existing memory methods often optimize retrieval and memory construction separately, without a shared reward space for evaluating search, writing, and stopping decisions. To address this, we propose All-in-One Memory (AiO-Mem), which organizes these operations as transitions over a shared evidence state and directly evaluates the semantic quality of each action in a unified reward space. AiO-Mem compiles heterogeneous histories into source-traceable multi-view events, providing a shared substrate for retrieval and memory writing. A unified memory policy actor then rolls out complete interaction trajectories over this

摘要：Agent memory enables large language model (LLM) agents to reuse past experiences without updating their parameters. However, semantic similarity alone does not guarantee memory usefulness: downstream performance depends on how memories are selected and presented to the agent. We propose MemComposer, a memory composer that jointly examines the current query and retrieved candidates to decide which experiences to include, how many to select, and how to order them. We train the composer using Experience Policy Optimization (ExPO), a GRPO-based framework that evaluates assembled memory contexts through complete agent interactions and uses task-success feedback to optimize the assembly policy. Across three $τ^2$-bench domains with two frozen executors, MemComposer outperforms the strongest base

摘要：Memory enables large language models (LLMs) to use information beyond their parameters, such as past user conversations, long documents, or an agent's earlier actions. For a frozen LLM, access to this accumulated knowledge is limited to what a memory system places in its context window. However, gathering and combining relevant information needed for each query while keeping the model's context short remains challenging for existing systems. Here we introduce Memorilla, a memory system that gathers information from an entire document collection into a fixed number of query-dependent 'memory tokens' for a frozen LLM. Memorilla encodes documents (such as user chats, book chapters) once into reusable embeddings, then learns to retrieve and place query-specific information in the LLM's input e

摘要：Robotic manipulation often requires remembering interactions that are no longer visible. We introduce Latent Transition Memory (LTM), which stores history as compact latent transitions between consecutive observations. Instantiated on $π_{0.5}$ as LTM-$π$, our method uses a frozen latent action encoder, a lightweight adapter, and causal KV caching for incremental inference without memory-specific semantic annotations or external reasoning-model calls. With DreamDojo transitions, LTM-$π$ achieves 58.54% success on RoboMME and 80.5% on LIBERO-Mem, performing best among baselines without external reasoning models or memory-specific annotations. Ablations support the contribution of transition content beyond temporal cues and the efficiency of delayed memory admission. Scaling RoboMME demonstr

摘要：Agent memory benchmarks evaluate whether an agent's responses reflect correct knowledge, measuring downstream question-answering accuracy as a proxy for memory quality. We show this evaluation paradigm is incomplete: it conflates memory correctness with retrieval and generation quality, producing both false positives where correct responses mask broken memory and false negatives where incorrect responses blame correct memory for retrieval failures. We introduce FEB-30, a benchmark of 30 fact-evolution trajectories spanning 6 diagnostic categories and 3 difficulty levels, constructed via paradigm inversion: documents are generated from known fact trajectories, yielding deterministic ground truth without human annotation. Each trajectory defines how a fact should evolve across multi-author a

摘要：Addressed conditional memory provides a local surface for post-hoc knowledge injection, but a successful write need not transfer to a new question or preserve untargeted behavior. This study combines a controlled GPT-2 comparison with production-memory experiments on Qwen3.8-Flash-Next-FP8 and DeepSeek-V4.1-Flash. Newly initialized modules attached to frozen GPT-2 are tested in a 2 x 2 design: row-only versus row-plus-projection updates, each with or without fixed module-residual anchoring. All arms reproduce 50 trained completions in each of three sampling seeds. Natural-question target-string hits average 5.3% for both row-only arms, 28.7% for unanchored projection updates, and 22.0% with anchoring, while strict answer scores remain zero.

来源：arXiv

摘要：Agent memory architectures define how LLM agents store and reuse experience across tasks, but they are typically fixed after deployment, limiting their adaptability across task types. Recent self-evolving approaches instead adapt these memory architectures using execution feedback, typically represented as evaluation scores or compressed summaries. However, such coarse-grained feedback is insufficient for precise failure localization in current agent systems, where long-horizon task execution involves multiple interacting components. Without a precise failure location, existing approaches lack a clear code-level target for modification, leaving the update scope weakly constrained and often leading to large-scale rewrites of an otherwise capable memory architecture. We propose MemScope, a f

摘要：Incremental learning (IL) aims to continually acquire new knowledge (plasticity) while retaining previously learned information (stability). However, striking a balance between plasticity and stability remains a significant challenge for intelligent systems. The human brain achieves exceptional balance, owing to various memory units that collaboratively encode and store information. Inspired by human memory mechanisms, this paper introduces an IL framework with knowledge enCoding, Consolidation, and Integration (Co2In). Co2In is designed as a bi-level memory architecture: a working memory for adaptive knowledge acquisition and a long-term memory dedicated to the persistent retention of information. The two memory modules work cooperatively during IL. The working memory first learns from ne

摘要：As agents powered by foundation models move into open-ended environments, continual learning from experience becomes essential. For agents built on models with fixed parameters, this learning requires reusing prior task experience in context to improve performance and efficiency on future tasks. Existing memory and experience-learning systems typically focus on either retained facts or procedures, and lack a mechanism for establishing the reliability of claims extracted from the ongoing task stream. Indeed, we find that approximately 12--33\% of entries produced by representative systems harm future task performance when reused. To address these limitations, we propose \textbf{RIKA} (Reliable Knowledge Acquisition), which combines hierarchical extraction of factual, conceptual, procedural,

We address this human-familiar, robot-unseen setting with AVALON, a topological navigation framework organized around human-seeded layered spatial memory, node-verified topological execution, and task-triggered, evidence-gated human--robot memory co-updating. The robot has no prior on-site traversal or site-specific training. Deployment requires only a floor plan, place clues, and an initial topology-odometry alignment. Visual depth point-goal navigation leverages verified node arrivals to perform translational re-anchoring, without requiring a robot-constructed global SLAM map.

摘要：Large language model (LLM) agents solve complex tasks by calling external tools over multiple turns. Recent work has proposed tool graph memory, which stores past experience as tool transitions to guide subsequent selection. However, it remains unclear whether this component consistently improves agents' tool use or undermines it. We evaluate tool graph memory on nine models and two benchmarks, finding that it seldom improves significantly over baselines, and that its gains, where present, cost over twice the LLM calls. The memory's guidance is often incorrect, and random or no guidance retains most of the gain, implying that the benefit stems from extra computation rather than the memory itself. Moreover, even with the correct next tool suggested, many failures remain, such as giving up w

摘要：Long-term memory has become a crucial component of large language model (LLM) agents, with most research focusing on retrieving relevant information accurately and efficiently. However, a dependable memory system must also forget sensitive user data upon request. To evaluate this capability, we introduce MemCut, a systematic benchmark for user-requested forgetting. Its 456 hand-designed secrets in long-horizon conversations have fully annotated evidence trails to test recovery after deletion, including from messages that never state the secrets directly. We propose two recovery metrics. Native recovery measures reader success through the system's retrieval, whereas residual recovery measures the same reader's success when directly given surviving objects traced to annotated disclosures or
标题：Beyond Retrieval Failure: Understanding Why LLMs Miss Evidence in Multi-Hop RAG
来源：arXiv

摘要：Multi-hop retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) requires an agent to retrieve evidence for a sequence of dependent sub-questions. When a wrong answer lacks a required passage, the passage may be inaccessible to the retriever, or the agent may have failed to issue a query that would retrieve it. Standard retrieval evaluations conflate these two causes. We study how much apparent retrieval failure is instead caused by search drift: the search no longer tracks an unanswered sub-question. Holding the retriever, corpus, and generation model fixed, we introduce ExecutionRAG, a training-free requirement register that records open sub-questions and their supporting evidence. The register changes search guidance but not evidence access, so each gold passage it recovers certifies that the passage was

摘要：Long-context capability has become essential for large language models (LLMs) to handle complex tasks, yet continuously expanding the context window does not remove the computational, storage, and information-selection pressures incurred at inference time. Existing work on prompt compression, KV-cache management, efficient serving, retrieval augmentation, and agent memory is usually discussed in isolation, leaving the flow of information between storage and computation insufficiently understood. This survey reframes long-context compression as a memory-management problem for allocating inference-time resources. We distinguish compute-active memory, which directly participates in model computation, from compute-inactive memory, which lies outside the computation path but can be stored, retr

摘要：Long-horizon LLM agents rely on context compaction: when the interaction history outgrows the context window, a compressor replaces it with a natural-language summary. We show that these summaries contain more than a record of what happened. Compaction prompts ask for decisions and next steps, so each summary mixes facts established by the environment with reasoning written by the compressor, and the agent cannot tell the two apart afterwards. In an analysis of a widely used structured compressor, 83% of failed runs trace back to an action that carries out a specific summary entry, most of which no environment output supports. We propose Source-Judged Compaction (SJC), a training-free post-processing step that scores each summary entry for whether it has a source in the environment outputs

摘要：An agent's memory must remain useful as information changes across conversations. A new fact may replace an earlier value without making that value irrelevant to a later question. We present Temporal State Tracking Memory (TEM), a training-free framework for tracking these changes. TEM stores facts as versioned records linked to their sources. It retrieves relevant versions, places them in source order and labels historical records before passing the evidence to the answer model. Event memory and original dialogue turns provide details missing from structured facts. We evaluated TEM on 420 questions drawn from 600 sessions involving 60 personas. Across four open-weight models, key-entity hit rates reached 75.71-97.62% overall and 96.67-100.00% on the historical-residence subset. Adding his

摘要：Deep research agents are increasingly deployed to retrieve precise information from large corpora, yet multi-hop, long-horizon tasks remain challenging. Synthetic data generation has emerged as a scalable solution, with existing pipelines typically expanding seed tasks to increase their apparent depth and breadth. However, this expansion does not reliably translate into necessary reasoning: newly introduced evidence may be only weakly coupled to the answer, creating a mismatch between intended and empirical difficulty. To address this problem, we introduce GRADS, a graph-guided agentic data synthesis framework with explicit difficulty control.

摘要：Detailed captions transfer visual information into vision-language model supervision, but quality is easily conflated with length: long single-pass outputs still miss small objects, text, and spatial relations or promote uncertain observations into confident claims. We formulate fine-grained captioning as recoverable visual information transfer, in which a teacher acquires missing evidence under a finite observation budget and converts it into reusable supervision. ZoomCap uses a draft caption to route conditional knowledge retrieval, OCR-sensitive reading, coverage-gap recovery, and adaptive visual zooming, allocating deeper crops only to the most complex eligible region, deriving spatial relations from grounded geometry, and fusing non-duplicate evidence.

Time-Series Language Models (TSLMs) promise scalable interpretation of these signals, yet remain bottlenecked by a fundamental lack of text-annotated time series pairs that are signal-grounded, reproducible, and extensible across modalities and schemas. Existing paired corpora are either closed or limited in scale and modality coverage. Annotation with large language models could scale them up, but its outputs cannot be regenerated exactly, which prevents others from re-deriving, extending, or auditing the resulting corpus.

However, the rapid growth of cybersecurity discussions on social media has created more content than domain experts can realistically review and annotate, making labeled data a major bottleneck for developing supervised learning approaches.

摘要：Reasoning over long document contexts remains a challenge for large language models (LLMs). Standard retrieval methods are inherently reactive, bottlenecking agents with complex, cross-document reasoning at inference time, while precomputed structures like knowledge graphs often fall short because they rely on rigid heuristics. Instead, can we allow agents to perform anticipatory directed curation: learning to proactively reorganize unstructured corpora prior to inference to efficiently serve diverse future queries. We build on a key asymmetry in modern agentic harnesses (e.g., Claude Code): while LLM agents are adept at navigating existing filesystems to solve an immediate task, they are rarely trained to construct reusable workspaces for future use.

摘要：Language model agents increasingly automate post-training, but when given the full training stack they converge on supervised fine-tuning and spend most effort revising training data. Existing systems give the agent one kind of control, selecting rows from a fixed pool or calling a generator, whereas a human data engineer adjusts proportions, prunes, repairs, replaces and synthesizes the data. We design a data action space for these changes and ask whether an automated system can make the full range rather than one of them, and what structure that requires. We first run this loop with a single agent, and it reaches only one action, adjusting category proportions, while its context fills with execution output and is discarded mid-search. We therefore introduce \textbf{AutoSFT}, a multi-agen

It governs the selection, weighting, and scheduling of training data, thereby determining the capabilities a model can acquire from a fixed data budget. We treat high-quality data as having high training-dependent utility, which depends on the target objective, the model, and its training state rather than on the text alone. Research in this area now spans pretraining and post-training, but related ideas use inconsistent terminology and evaluation protocols. This work reviews data strategies across the training lifecycle and formulates them as policies that allocate a training budget over candidate examples.

摘要：Despite a surge of empirical interest in the ``unreasonable effectiveness'' of drastic data pruning for AI systems, a unified theoretical understanding of this phenomenon remains elusive. In this work, we provide a precise high-dimensional theory of learning under data pruning via weighted empirical risk minimization (ERM). As in previous work, we analyze a setting where pruning is performed along a one-dimensional subspace of the input space. Our analysis precisely characterizes the limiting test error curves in the regime where the input dimension N and sample size P tend to infinity with a fixed ratio N/P. The resulting theory recovers several recent results in the literature as special cases and provides a general lens to evaluate how pruning strategies interact with the loss function

摘要：Unsupervised speech denoising methods such as MixIT and noisy-target training can be trained directly on noisy recordings, avoiding the sim-to-real gap of synthetic training data, but remain well below supervised performance. Teacher--student self-training, as in RemixIT, narrows this gap by remixing a teacher's estimates into new mixtures that supervise a student; however, since the student is trained only toward the teacher's estimates, teacher errors, in particular over-suppressed speech, are never recovered and propagate as the teacher is updated from the student. We propose SNOAR, a self-training framework that corrects the teacher's estimates before use: the noise leaked into its speech estimate is removed by differential noise filtering (DNF), and part of the noisy observation is ad

摘要：Reasoning distillation requires chain-of-thought (CoT) data with correct answers, but obtaining such data efficiently remains challenging. Forward CoT generation (FCG) followed by rejection sampling (RS) produces verified, question-only responses, yet may require many teacher calls for difficult problems. Reverse CoT generation (RCG) is cheaper because it conditions on the known answer, but access to this answer can lead to post-hoc rationalization and a mismatch with the student's answer-free inference setting. We propose CoTranslator, which learns to translate reverse CoT responses toward the distribution of verified forward responses. Trained on a small set of paired reverse and rejection-sampled forward responses, it supports large-scale generation and verification of student training

We study it in a controlled agent environment, on one failure (asking a clarifying question when the request was already unambiguous), with labels from a rule-based overseer validated against blind human judgment. Claims cover eligible models, which both over-ask and sometimes act on matched unambiguous requests: five of thirteen qualified (Qwen2.5-3B, gemma-2-2b, OLMo-3-7B, Mistral-Nemo-12B, Phi-4).

摘要：Self-evolving language models train on tasks they generate, so every round must decide which updated model the next round inherits. Current loops such as R-Zero, Agent0, and Skill Self-Play make this decision through the task, admitting tasks that look learnable and inheriting every resulting update. We identify a selection-to-update gap in these loops, where a task that looks learnable need not produce a useful update. Most updates on verified tasks fail to make correct answers more likely, yet these loops inherit them all. HeirCommit freezes the updated model and uses fresh evaluation questions to decide whether to inherit it or retain the current model. EvoHeir separates parameter inheritance from experience inheritance, using current and archived experience to repair failures and prese

In contrast, continual learning in large language models (LLMs) remains vulnerable to catastrophic forgetting. A promising direction is to identify functionally specialized subnetworks within LLMs that enable targeted and resource-efficient adaptation. Using gradient-attribution profiling, we localize cognition-associated functional subnetworks exhibiting extremely low mutual overlap. Building on this finding, we propose Function-isolated Memory-Efficient Optimization (CiMEO), a continual learning framework that routes each training example to its corresponding functional subnetwork, restricting parameter updates and optimizer states to selected regions.

摘要：Large language models (LLMs) acquire new skills through fine-tuning, but it can destroy capabilities they already have: catastrophic forgetting remains a central obstacle to continual learning in LLMs. Recent works connect forgetting to how far, and along which directions, fine-tuning moves the weights. On-policy methods such as reinforcement learning and on-policy distillation avoid updating the principal singular directions of weight matrices and thus forget less. In contrast, SFT concentrates updates along these directions and is susceptible to catastrophic forgetting. In this work, we introduce Subspace Tuning (SST), which restricts each weight update to the bottom singular subspace, eliminating changes along the principal directions. SST is optimizer-agnostic and composes well with fi

摘要：Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) achieve strong performance through instruction tuning, yet real-world applications often require them to continually acquire new capabilities from sequential tasks, i.e., Multimodal Continual Instruction Tuning (MCIT). In typical MLLMs, a projector is employed to align visual representations with the language model. However, existing methods primarily protect the language model from forgetting while continuously updating the projector across tasks. Such asymmetric adaptation can cause substantial representation drift in the projector, increasing the mismatch between the projector and language model and consequently exacerbating catastrophic forgetting. To address this issue, we propose Compatible Routing (CART), which explicitly coordinates the adap

摘要：We study sparse and continual reinforcement learning fine-tuning of language models through attention-head ranking and partitioning. For sparse learning, we rank attention heads by gradient norm to identify a small subset of heads that can be trained effectively. For continual learning, we partition heads across tasks to reduce cross-task interference and preserve previously learned capabilities. Theoretically, we relate gradient norm to training effectiveness, and further characterize why sparse, separated head updates can remain stable. Empirically, across math, instruction-following, and coding tasks, tuning higher-ranked heads consistently outperforms tuning lower-ranked ones while often matching denser baselines, and head partitioning improves retention while preserving adaptation to
标题：Learning from Interaction Experience via Localized Context Distillation

摘要：Learning from interaction experience is essential for enabling large language models to continually improve during deployment. Context distillation offers a promising path: privileged information extracted from experience is provided to a teacher, whose behavior is then distilled into a student model that has no access to it. However, both existing forms of context distillation have limitations. Off-policy context distillation trains the student on teacher-generated trajectories and thus suffers from exposure bias; whereas on-policy context distillation trains on the student's own rollouts, whose states are often uninformative and fail to convey behaviors the student cannot yet produce. To resolve this dilemma, we introduce Localized Context Distillation (LoCD). LoCD first localizes the cr
标题：Compatibility Matters: A Framework for Token-Level Teacher Selection in On-Policy Distillation
来源：arXiv

摘要：On-policy distillation (OPD) has recently been introduced as a promising paradigm for continual learning, where a student policy can be supervised at the token-level. Typically, OPD is performed using a single teacher per prompt rollout (or even per training run). However, this ignores a whole other axis of flexibility that is available due to the on-policy nature - token-level teacher selection during rollouts. Building on this insight, we theoretically explore what makes a teacher and a student compatible for OPD, and leverage our findings to derive several empirical heuristics for teacher selection. In particular, our framework captures several desiderata for OPD: compatible teacher-student reasoning patterns, teacher competence, and induced student diversity. Theoretically, we categori
标题：Condition-Contrastive Extrapolation for On-Policy Distillation of Language Models
来源：arXiv

摘要：On-policy distillation (OPD) improves a student language model by training on its own generated trajectories with supervision from a stronger teacher. However, when conditioned on student-generated prefixes, the teacher can favor invalid continuations that violate the question's premises, causing OPD to encourage erroneous reasoning steps. As a remedy, we introduce Condition-Contrastive Extrapolated On-Policy Distillation (CCE-OPD), which makes teacher supervision sensitive to question conditions. CCE-OPD incorporates (1) a fixed-prefix comparison in which the same frozen teacher evaluates the complete question and a counterpart with a selected condition masked, and (2) a bounded log-probability contrast that reweights the teacher distribution into an auxiliary distillation target.

标题：Do As I Do, Not As I Say: On-Policy Distillation Inherits the Teacher in Vision-Language Models
来源：arXiv

摘要：Improving the reasoning capabilities of vision-language models (VLMs) often relies on post-training with supervision from stronger models. Two common strategies are supervised fine-tuning (SFT), which trains on teacher-generated demonstrations, and on-policy distillation (OPD), which provides teacher feedback on trajectories generated by the student itself. While OPD can be more data-efficient by supervising student-generated trajectories, it is unclear how the teacher's supervision at each state affects the student's learned behavior. To study this question, we conduct a controlled comparison of OPD and filtered SFT across data budgets and tasks where the teacher exhibits different levels of reliability, and analyze how these differences shape student accuracy and completion behavior.

标题：Judging the Judges: Confidence and Disagreement in Rubrics as Rewards
来源：arXiv
链接：https://arxiv.org/abs/2610.21179
摘要：Rubrics as Rewards (RaR) extends reinforcement learning to non-verifiable domains by using an LLM judge to score responses against a structured rubric. Prior work has focused on improving the rubric or strengthening the single judge, with comparatively little attention to how different single or multiple judges might be used during RaR training. We first show that judge identity alone produces a substantial spread in scores when training Qwen3-4B-Base on RaR-Medicine and RaR-Science across five frontier and open-weight judges. Building on this, we propose RaRE (Rubrics as Rewards with Ensembles), a novel judge ensemble strategy for RaR with two mechanisms: a soft-Likert reward that uses judge logprobs to weight more confident judges more heavily, and a drop-on-disagreement mask that exclud

来源：arXiv
链接：https://arxiv.org/abs/2610.21138
摘要：Feedback noise is pervasive in preference data, arising from subjective human judgments, annotation mistakes, and imperfect LLM judges. Standard reward modeling trained on such feedback yields a biased estimate of the clean risk. Although classical denoising methods are directly applicable to noisy feedback learning, they generally assume a uniform noise ratio across samples. However, this assumption fails for feedback data, where noise is intrinsically sample-wise. To address this challenge, we propose CleanRM, which uses a few clean feedback to calibrate sample-wise noise ratios via optimal transport. Specifically, CleanRM aligns the joint distribution of preferences reverted from noisy feedback with that of clean feedback and then trains the reward model using a noise-corrected surrogat
标题：Rubric Judgments Lack Uncertainty: Conformal Weighting for LLM Evaluation
来源：arXiv
链接：https://arxiv.org/abs/2610.21214
摘要：Rubric-based evaluation is widely used to assess large language model (LLM) outputs by decomposing quality into multiple criteria and assigning each a binary judgment from an LLM verifier. However, judgment certainty varies substantially across criteria. Existing methods uniformly aggregate these judgments into a final score, implicitly treating every criterion as equally certain and overlooking this heterogeneity. As a result, uncertain judgments remain incorporated into reward estimation without distinction, potentially yielding misleading training signals for downstream reinforcement learning (RL). To address this limitation, we propose Uncertainty-aware Rubric Weighting (URW), a training-free framework that quantifies criterion-level judgment uncertainty via conformal calibration. Spec
标题：Stop Training Against Soft Users: Mentalized Adversarial Self-Play for Proactive Dialogue
来源：arXiv
链接：https://arxiv.org/abs/2610.21156
摘要：Proactive dialogue agents must guide multi-turn interactions toward task goals while adapting to users whose intentions and attitudes evolve. Existing planners improve system side action selection through search, learned policies, or user aware planning, but are often trained and evaluated against fixed or overly compliant simulators; as a result, high simulated success can reflect soft user bias rather than robust dialogue ability. We introduce MASP, a Mentalized Adversarial Self Play framework that treats proactive dialogue as a partially observable game between a system and a rationally resisting user. MASP represents the user's evolving mental state with a BDI based latent state, separates reward side teacher mentalization from policy side student mentalization, and alternates self pla
标题：MSP: Modality Self-Play for Training Multimodal LLMs Without Paired Cross-Modal Data
来源：arXiv
链接：https://arxiv.org/abs/2610.20965
摘要：Large multimodal models have achieved remarkable progress by scaling model capacity and training on massive paired multimodal data. However, this paradigm introduces a fundamental bottleneck: aligned multimodal datasets are expensive to curate, difficult to scale across diverse modality combinations, and increasingly constrain further progress. We introduce Modality Self-Play (MSP), a training framework for multimodal foundation models based on proxy-mediated modality composition. Instead of relying on paired cross-modal data, MSP uses anchor-supporting proxy textual descriptions of unseen modalities as semantic bridges during training. Given an observed modality (e.g., image or audio), the model generates proxy descriptions for complementary unseen modalities, which are then encoded and a
标题：Lean Graph Search for Formal Theorem Proving
来源：arXiv
链接：https://arxiv.org/abs/2610.22339
摘要：Retrieving relevant lemmas is crucial for formal theorem proving, enabling provers to build machine-checkable proofs from established mathematical results. Recent retrieval systems match library declarations to a target theorem or its intermediate proof steps, but make limited use of multi-hop dependencies among declarations. These dependencies can reveal supporting lemmas that are not necessarily lexically similar to the target theorem but recur in proofs of related problems. To this end, we propose LeanGraphSearch, a graph-based retrieval method for Lean 4 that constructs a graph from Mathlib's forward dependencies and traverses it to uncover supporting lemmas through multi-hop dependency chains. Specifically, LeanGraphSearch links each declaration to the premises it depends on, uses a g
标题：Learning Lean Feedback for Efficient Proof-Candidate Evaluation on GPUs
来源：arXiv
链接：https://arxiv.org/abs/2610.21881
摘要：Training language models for formal theorem proving requires large numbers of verifier calls. Slow checks and timeouts often leave GPUs waiting and withhold rewards from potentially correct proofs. We train neural evaluators to predict Lean 4 verdicts and compiler feedback on GPUs using 4.84M labelled programs. We compare two validity classifiers with a feedback model that annotates proof attempts with predicted goal states and error messages. A two-stage evaluator that screens candidates with a classifier and scores its positive predictions with the feedback model reaches 87.8% accuracy in predicting whether Lean accepts a candidate proof, evaluated on a 68,932-program benchmark collected from public provers. The combined evaluator processes 3.5 candidates per second on one H100, 4.2x the
标题：Grid-Bench: Can LLMs Predict How Discrete Worlds Change?
来源：arXiv

摘要：Spatial instructions describe how to move objects, transform regions, or modify their surroundings. When several operations are applied in sequence, each acts on a configuration shaped by earlier changes. How accurately can large language models (LLMs) predict the resulting spatial state? We introduce Grid-Bench, an executable benchmark in which eight families of operations transform discrete worlds represented as two-, three-, and four-dimensional grids. Given an initial grid, explicit rules, and an event history expressed as text, a model predicts the complete final grid. Reference execution makes every predicted value checkable, supporting comparisons across spatial operations, history lengths, and workloads. Evaluating six LLMs shows that complete-state accuracy falls sharply as histor

来源：arXiv
链接：https://arxiv.org/abs/2610.22158
摘要：Recent advances in large language models (LLMs) have substantially improved Text-to-SQL performance, yet existing NL2SQL systems largely assume that user queries are valid and answerable. As a result, models often generate executable SQL even for queries with flawed premises. We introduce premise critique ability in NL2SQL, namely the ability to recognize flawed queries and abstain from generating misleading SQL. To evaluate this capability, we propose PremiseSQL, a benchmark containing 1,800 flawed NL2SQL queries across four categories of premise failures, along with their 1,800 original queries. We further design an evaluation framework to measure intrinsic and prompt-induced premise-aware behavior across three prompting settings. Experiments on frontier LLMs show that current models are
标题：Self-Guided LLM Reasoning for Error Diagnosis in Vehicle Routing Problems
来源：arXiv
链接：https://arxiv.org/abs/2610.21393
摘要：Vehicle Routing Problems (VRPs) are fundamental to many real-world applications. Recent advances in large language models (LLMs) have spurred progress in solving these NP-hard problems. However, most existing approaches assume that input instances are error-free, neglecting the presence of faults commonly encountered in real-world data. In this work, we systematically investigate the capability of LLMs to detect (and correct) errors in VRP instances, and identify key limitations, particularly in handling complex instances or errors that substantially increase the LLM's reasoning burden. To overcome these challenges, we propose a self-guided reasoning framework in which LLMs autonomously generate code that provides structured insights to aid in error diagnosis. Experiments across diverse pr
标题：Disagreement-Guided Weak-to-Strong Routing
来源：arXiv
链接：https://arxiv.org/abs/2610.22245
摘要：Small language models are increasingly deployed on edge devices and robotic systems to meet cost and latency constraints, yet their limited capabilities can make reliable deployment challenging. Stronger models can provide assistance when needed, but deciding when to route a weak-model response to a stronger model often relies on signals of response correctness. In open-ended and agentic tasks, however, obtaining such signals can require costly ground-truth supervision that is difficult to obtain at scale. We revisit the foundations of weak-to-strong routing and ask whether routing decisions can instead be guided by signals that do not require ground-truth supervision. We first characterize the optimal weak-to-strong routing policy, while allowing for multiple weak-model responses generate
标题：GraphACM: Graph-based Action Consistency Measurement for Uncertainty Quantification in LLM Agents
来源：arXiv
链接：https://arxiv.org/abs/2610.22031
摘要：Behavioral consistency across repeated executions provides an informative signal for assessing the reliability of large language model (LLM) agents. However, existing approaches typically summarize consistency with a single task-level score, without identifying where behavioral differences occur or whether actions are compared under equivalent decision contexts. We propose a graph-based framework for fine-grained behavioral consistency measurement and uncertainty quantification. Given multiple rollouts of the same task, we merge equivalent states into a directed, action-labeled graph, enabling action comparisons at shared decision states. We introduce node-level and global measures of action consistency, using the global consistency score as a proxy for uncertainty to predict task success
标题：CodeHealth Predicts the Token Cost of Agentic Code Review: A Pre-Registered Study of 465 Agent-Authored Pull Requests
来源：arXiv
链接：https://arxiv.org/abs/2610.21914
摘要：Context: Organizations increasingly delegate code review to multi-agent large language model (LLM) pipelines billed per token. Low code quality raises human maintenance effort, but its effect on agent review cost has not been measured. Objective: We test whether baseline CodeHealth predicts the token cost of agentic review and fix beyond pull request (PR) footprint. Method: In a pre-registered observational study, we sampled 465 agent-authored PRs from 246 repositories in AIDev, jointly stratified by CodeHealth and footprint under repository caps. A frozen five-agent review-and-fix pipeline processed every PR with three different LLMs. Per LLM, we fitted a mixed model of log tokens on CodeHealth and log PR footprint, with a repository random intercept. Results: For all three LLMs the CodeH
