Signals: Continuous Diagnostics of AI Agents

Amey Rambatla, Vatsal Goel, Sagar Gaur, Siddhant Loya, Anurag Mishra, Asif Mohammad

原文摘要

AI agents can make incorrect decisions or waste resources even when their tools and infrastructure work normally. Their nondeterministic behavior makes these problems difficult to reproduce and diagnose. We developed Signals to identify such problems from agentic traces and suggest concrete remediations. We built the method around a taxonomy of 45 problem types across eight families, with definitions and evidence requirements for each type. The method distinguishes realized failures, risk exposures, and inefficiencies, groups related findings into engineering issues called Signals, and assesses their severity from the supporting evidence. Each Signal includes actions a developer can take and checks for evaluating the change. Further executions can add evidence to an existing Signal or reveal a new problem. We evaluated the method on public agent executions and achieved 91.43% F1 when matching Signals to reference issues, about 18 percentage points higher than a one-pass LLM control that used the same model and taxonomy.

How Unbalanced Must a Latin Rectangle Be?

Zhengyu Li, Vijay Ganesh

原文摘要

We view a $k\times n$ Latin rectangle as $n$ points in the grid $[n]^k$. Each symbol gives one point, whose coordinates are the columns it occupies. The rectangle is balanced when these points are pairwise equidistant in the $\ell_1$ metric. Its imbalance measures the distance from this ideal. We study the minimum imbalance from three sides. Constructively, we use a simulated annealing that moves symbols within rows and only penalises column clashes. Against the reference table of Voboril et al. (2025), it improves 33 of the 51 non-square values for $8\le n\le 13$, by up to 39.4%, and matches the rest. A cheap invariant, the row group, certifies that none of the 33 new rectangles is isotopic to rows of a group table, so the earlier column-swapping local search cannot reach any of them. Exactly, a computer-assisted branch and bound proves that the minimum imbalance of a $3\times 9$ rectangle is $56$. Díaz et al. found this value, but its optimality was open. A sharper pruning bound, derived from the identity $I=2\sum(d-t)^+$, reduces the search tree by a factor of $2.4$ to $3.3$ on the instances with $k\ge3$ that we solve. Asymptotically, the minimum imbalance is $Θ(n^3)$ for every fixed $k$. A pigeonhole argument gives a lower constant of order $k\,4^{-k}$, and random rectangles give an upper constant of order $\sqrt k$. For $k=2$, the limit of $\min I/n^3$ exists, a permuton attains it, and it lies between $4/375$ and $0.1196$. Perfect balance is an $\ell_1$-equilateral problem, so it forces $k=Ω(n/\log n)$ rows. For $2\times n$ rectangles, single two-minute annealing runs improve five of the seven six-hour MIP upper bounds for $14\le n\le 20$. Finally, the Lean 4 kernel checks every rectangle reported in this paper against a 74-line specification that imports only Lean's core library. We also prove the pigeonhole lower bound in Lean with Mathlib.

Intra-Architecture Source Attribution for Stable Diffusion: A New Task with Benchmark Dataset and Baseline

Ashutosh Dayal, Mallika Garg, Debashis Sen

原文摘要

Designing systems that attribute a generated image to its source model has lately become a major area of AI research. Most existing datasets and systems related to image source attribution are targeted towards the detection of architectural signatures of the source models. Distinct from this, focusing on stable diffusion, we introduce a novel task, IntrAA-SD, Intra-Architecture source Attribution for Stable Diffusion, where the source models to be differentiated share the same architectural backbone and differ only due to fine-tuning. The proposed task aligns with the emergence of fine-tuned generators having the same architecture, like Juggernaut XL and RealVis XL, which are fine-tuned versions of Stable Diffusion XL (SDXL). We provide a first-of-its-kind $140$K-image benchmark dataset containing images generated from different fine-tunes of SDXL, along with in-domain and out-of-distribution prompts. We also provide a baseline framework for IntrAA-SD, which leverages a style-conditioned Mixture-of-Experts network. It uses a frozen CLIP backbone to capture the image style and gate the MoE, which processes fine-tuned trace features from a high-resolution LoRA-adapted DINOv2 network. The fine-tuned models used, the prompting strategies considered, and the formation details employed in the novel dataset are elaborated. Our baseline intra-architecture source attribution method is evaluated in terms of attribution accuracy on our dataset, and ablation studies are also performed. Code and dataset is available at https://github.com/mallikagarg/IntrAA-SD.

From Waste to Discovery: Recycling High-Scored Unexposed Candidates in Taobao Feed Recommendation

Ge Fan, Kai Meng, Huiping Chu, Yuning Jiang, Han Zhu, Bo Zheng

原文摘要

Helping users discover new interests is vital to the long-term health of industrial recommender systems, yet the usual remedy, boosting exposure of under-explored (discovery) content, often backfires in production. We report URED (Unexposed Recycling for Efficient Discovery), a training-free recall-stage system serving Taobao feed recommendation at Alibaba for over six months to tens of millions of daily active users. It rests on a production-validated insight: naive boosting fails because it injects cold, information-poor candidates that rankers systematically over-estimate, buying no discovery gain while risking engagement. Items scored highly but never exposed (signals industrial pipelines routinely discard) form a pool that is both relevant and reliably predictable. Over a 30-day horizon URED aggregates them and re-injects at recall time through a lightweight pipeline spanning offline storage, distributed aggregation, and low-latency online serving, adding under 1% latency via a single O(1) lookup per request with no model retraining. Online A/B tests show +3.47% discovered categories and +8.47% content richness with engagement preserved: completion video views rise significantly (+2.62%) and total views move positive (+0.36%, not significant). Ablations confirm both design pillars are necessary: a one-day window collapses the discovery gain to +0.55% (not significant), and random injection without score filtering yields no gain while trending negative on engagement (-0.17%). Across production recall channels, URED reaches 13.9x the platform-average discovery rate (6.3x the strongest nearline baseline) at engagement quality on par with the platform average. We share deployment details and lessons for practitioners facing the exploration-exploitation dilemma under tight resource constraints.

Beyond the Prompt: Jailbreaking Function-Calling LLMs via Simulated Moderation Traces

Junlong Liu, Haobo Wang, Weiqi Luo, Xiaojun Jia

原文摘要

Jailbreak attacks remain a critical threat to the safe deployment of large language models (LLMs). While prior work has primarily studied attacks and defenses at the prompt level, we show that this prompt-centric paradigm overlooks a structural vulnerability in stateful, function-calling environments. In such applications, developer-defined schemas, structured arguments, and untrusted tool outputs are interleaved into a single shared model context. This architecture expands the attack surface by blurring the boundary between trusted control logic and untrusted data, allowing adversarial intent to be distributed across a multi-turn execution path. We exploit this architectural flaw through SMT, a black-box attack framework based on Simulated Moderation Traces. Departing from purely prompt-based interactions, SMT constructs a multi-turn trajectory that simulates a legitimate moderation-auditing workflow. Within this trajectory, a fabricated moderation frame leverages red-team testing as a pretext to elicit harmful generations. The subsequent validation feedback treats safety refusals as execution failures, prompting refinements that gradually weaken the model's safety constraints and ultimately trigger harmful outputs. Extensive empirical evaluations on prominent commercial LLMs from five different providers across two standardized safety benchmarks show that SMT consistently achieves the highest average attack success rate and HarmScore while requiring a near-minimal number of queries, substantially outperforming existing baselines. These findings demonstrate that prompt-level sanitization alone is fundamentally insufficient for defending tool-enabled LLM systems and highlight the urgent need for context-aware validation across schemas, arguments, tool outputs, and accumulated conversation state. The code is available at https://github.com/liujlong27/SMT.

Clips2Story: Training-Free Video Storyboarding and Editing Using Multimodal Retrieval-Embedded Generation

Junnuo Wang, Weihan Xu, Hao-Wen Dong

原文摘要

Video editors often work with large collections of fragmented footage and must select and organize relevant clips into a coherent story. However, many existing video editing and summarization methods assume a temporally ordered source video and aim to preserve its original narrative and temporal structure. In this paper, we introduce Clips2Story, a training-free, LLM-based pipeline that enables users to create keyword-specified short videos from a pool of video clips. Given a pool of clips and a user-specified keyword, we first extract text-based multimodal descriptors for each clip and retrieve the clips most relevant to the keyword. We then provide the textual descriptors of these candidate clips to an LLM, which selects and arranges them into an editable storyboard with connective narrations. Finally, we assemble the selected clips and retrieve accompanying visuals for the narrations to compose the output video. To evaluate the proposed pipeline, we construct a synthetic evaluation dataset from 100 long-form videos across five genres by segmenting each video into short clips using a scene-change detection model and shuffling the resulting clips to remove their temporal order. Through objective evaluation and qualitative examples, we demonstrate that Clips2Story can effectively retrieve keyword-relevant clips and compose coherent storyboards based on user-specified keywords. Human evaluation further shows that Clips2Story outperforms a strong baseline in terms of narrative coherence, keyword alignment, and overall realism.

PixCon: Clean-Positive Contrastive Learning for Foundation-Model Semi-Supervised Segmentation

Ebenezer Tarubinga

原文摘要

Can a simple labeled-pixel contrastive branch improve semi-supervised segmentation with a strong pretrained encoder? We study this question with PixCon, which adds a class-wise memory bank to a DINOv2-Base implementation of UniMatch V2. The bank stores ground-truth-labeled features only where the student prediction agrees with the label. A multi-positive contrastive loss uses these features to train the shared encoder-decoder; the head and bank are discarded at inference. This simplifies earlier labeled-pixel banks by removing confidence thresholds and learned ranking. On Pascal VOC with 183 labels, PixCon improves all three paired seeds by 0.20, 0.64 and 1.83 mIoU points, raising the mean from 87.01 to 87.90. With 92 labels the mean gain is 0.40 points; single-seed differences on Cityscapes and ADE20K range from -0.08 to +0.14 points. A predicted-label contrastive control reaches nearly the same Pascal accuracy, so these results support the added branch rather than an accuracy benefit from its correctness filter. An exact gradient decomposition distinguishes mislabeled-positive counts from their similarity-weighted influence. Separate teacher diagnostics find retained-pixel error rates of 1.8% on Pascal and 10.6% on ADE20K. These diagnostics do not measure the training bank or predict final accuracy. PixCon adds 15.3-19.7% iteration time in the measured runs and no inference computation. We report paired seeds, training cost and the limits of the evidence.

Safety, or Just Capability? A Validity Audit of Agent-Safety Benchmarks

Youting Wang, Xiao Han, Dingyan Shang, Yuan Tang, Bowen Liu

原文摘要

Agent-safety benchmarks measure different behaviors, and their scores get quoted interchangeably as an agent's safety. We treat four of them (R-Judge, InjecAgent, AgentHarm, AgentDojo) as measurements to be validated, running each under its official implementation and author-provided scorer on up to 22 models, with MMLU and GPQA measured by us under one protocol as a capability composite. The metric is the first problem. On any binary trace-judgment benchmark scored by $F_1$, an ``always positive'' policy attains $F_1 = 2π/(1+π)$; on R-Judge that is $0.690$, above five of the 21 models that actually discriminate. The three broad-coverage benchmarks then rank the same 18 models differently, and the trade-off behind that disagreement is a small-panel artifact: R-Judge specificity against AgentHarm safety correlates $-0.64$ at $n{=}7$ and $+0.02$ at $n{=}18$, and a quarter of random size-7 subsets reach $|ρ| \geq 0.5$ around that near-zero value. Held-out validity turns on which outcome you pick. Capability predicts task success ($ρ{=}{+}0.60$) but correlates negatively with misalignment safety ($ρ{=}{-}0.44$, $n{=}21$). On their paired $n{=}20$ panel, the corresponding contrast is $Δ{=}{-}1.00$ (95% CI $[-1.48, -0.49]$, $p<0.001$), and it survives leave-one-organization-out and organization-clustered bootstrap analyses. On an expanded 41-model panel, the misalignment correlation weakens to $-0.16$ (95% CI $[-0.54, +0.22]$) and jailbreak strengthens to $+0.34$, though neither change is significant. \mbox{AgentHarm} shows the strongest held-out association, $ρ{=}{+}0.72$ with three-template jailbreak safety after controlling capability. But both instruments score harmful compliance, so this is evidence of convergent validity rather than general safety. Naming the benchmark, metric, target behavior, and model panel is the minimum a safety claim needs.

KV-PRM: Efficient Process Reward Modeling via KV-Cache Transfer for Multi-Agent Test-Time Scaling

Peng Kuang, Haibo Jin, Xiaoyu Han, Yanli Wang, Xiaopeng Yuan, Ye Yu, Kaidi Xu, Haohan Wang

原文摘要

Process Reward Models (PRMs) have been proven to be highly effective in guiding test-time scaling (TTS) methods, which significantly boost the capabilities of LLM-based multi-agent systems. However, existing PRMs are text-based: they re-encode the entire trajectory text from scratch. In long multi-agent rollouts, the scoring cost, growing quadratically with respect to sequence length L, creates a severe computational bottleneck, severely limiting PRMs' application in long-context scenarios. To resolve this, we introduce KV-PRM, a highly efficient process reward model that eliminates the heavy text re-encoding by directly reading the KV cache produced naturally during the LLM's generation phase. By processing a single "verify token" against the pre-existing KV cache, KV-PRM reduces the scoring cost from O(L^2) to O(L). We formally prove that the KV cache contains strictly greater information capacity than text, and is more efficient for downstream reward modeling. Empirically, across the MATH, GSM8K, and AIME benchmarks, KV-PRM matches or strictly outperforms text-PRMs under various TTS methods such as Beam Search, MCTS, and Weighted Voting, with up to a 5,000x reduction in scoring FLOPs, a 37x reduction in latency, and a 34x reduction in per-sequence memory footprint compared to text-based PRMs.

UpSafe$^\circ$C: Upcycling for Controllable Safety in Large Language Models

Yuhao Sun, Zhuoer Xu, Shiwen Cui, Kun Yang, Lingyun Yu, Yongdong Zhang, Hongtao Xie

原文摘要

Large Language Models (LLMs) have achieved remarkable progress across a wide range of tasks, but remain vulnerable to safety risks such as harmful content generation and jailbreak attacks. Existing safety techniques---including external guardrails, inference-time guidance, and post-training alignment---each face limitations in balancing safety, utility, and controllability. In this work, we propose UpSafe$^\circ$C, a unified framework for enhancing LLM safety through safety-aware upcycling. Our approach first identifies safety-critical layers and upcycles them into a sparse Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) structure, where the router acts as a soft guardrail that selectively activates original MLPs and added safety experts. We further introduce a two-stage SFT strategy to strengthen safety discrimination while preserving general capabilities. To enable flexible control at inference time, we introduce a safety temperature mechanism, allowing dynamic adjustment of the trade-off between safety and utility. Experiments across multiple benchmarks, base model, and model scales demonstrate that UpSafe$^\circ$C achieves robust safety improvements against harmful and jailbreak inputs, while maintaining competitive performance on general tasks. Moreover, analysis shows that safety temperature provides fine-grained inference-time control that achieves controllable trade-off between utility and safety. Our results highlight a new direction for LLM safety: moving from static alignment toward dynamic, modular, and inference-aware control. Code: https://github.com/HansSunY/UpSafe.

Understanding Generalization Requires Universal Induction

Aram Ebtekar, Marcus Hutter, Danica J. Sutherland

原文摘要

Classical statistical theory is insufficient to explain the successes of general-purpose AI models, because it depends on handcrafted inductive biases that it cannot justify. No Free Lunch (NFL) theorems force any learner that beats chance on some environments to underperform on others. We might hope that past experience informs which environments to expect, but NFL applies equally to meta-learning. Thus, any method that makes meaningful predictions necessarily begins with an inductive bias external to the data. Choosing to bias toward short programs yields Solomonoff induction (SI), whose performance is competitive against all computable learners - albeit up to "constants" that become large when comparing against specialized methods that exploit background information. We therefore relativize SI to an information vantage point, biasing toward short programs with access to all preexisting information. This reframes the inductive bias: instead of seeking some absolute notion of simplicity, we favour accessibility with respect to our vantage point. An algorithm can only outpredict the relativized SI to the extent that its code contains additional information about the data, and no algorithm can generate such information. While SI is incomputable and hence not a practical algorithm, it provides a formal optimum for inference in the limit of infinite compute, and there is evidence to suggest that frontier AI systems roughly approximate it. Thus, the only known answer to meta-NFL is rooted in algorithmic information theory, which we should expect to play a fundamental role in explaining the generalization behaviour of modern (and future) AI systems.

MemReward: Graph-Based Experience Memory for LLM Reward Prediction with Limited Labels

Tianyang Luo, Tao Feng, Zhigang Hua, Yan Xie, Shuang Yang, Ge Liu, Jiaxuan You

原文摘要

Reinforcement learning (RL) fine-tuning improves large language model (LLM) reasoning using reward signals on sampled rollouts. When reward labels are available for only a subset of rollouts, restricting policy updates to that subset leaves the remaining rollouts unused for policy optimization. Semi-supervised learning propagates labels from labeled to unlabeled samples, but existing methods either diffuse labels with fixed similarity weights or treat each sample independently, ignoring the relations among queries, thinking processes, and answers. We propose MemReward, a graph-based experience memory that propagates rewards to unlabeled rollouts during online policy optimization. MemReward stores queries and the rollouts (thinking processes and final answers) of an initial LLM policy as nodes of a heterogeneous graph connected by similarity and structural edges, and warms up a GNN on labeled rollouts to propagate rewards over this graph. During online RL fine-tuning, unlabeled rollouts are attached to the graph by query similarity, and the policy is updated with ground-truth rewards on labeled rollouts and GNN-predicted rewards on the rest. We evaluate MemReward on 13 benchmarks in mathematics, question answering, and code generation with verifiable rewards, and further with LLM-judge, human-preference, and continuous rewards. With ground-truth rewards on only 20% of rollouts, MemReward achieves 96.6% of the performance of fully supervised training (Oracle) on Qwen2.5-1.5B and 97.3% on Qwen2.5-3B, where it also outperforms label propagation and FixMatch-style self-training. It carries over to Llama backbones up to 8B and closely approaches Oracle on out-of-domain tasks.

Farther the Shift, Sparser the Representation: Analyzing OOD Mechanisms in LLMs

Mingyu Jin, Yutong Yin, Jingcheng Niu, Qingcheng Zeng, Wujiang Xu, Mengnan Du, Wei Cheng, Zhaoran Wang 等 10 位作者

原文摘要

In this work, we investigate how the internal representations of Large Language Models (LLMs) change with inputs of increasing difficulty. Although sparsity changes may not be obvious for individual samples, dataset-level results reveal a consistent statistical trend: as task difficulty increases (e.g., harder questions, longer contexts, or more answer choices), the last hidden states of LLMs become systematically sparser. In short, \textbf{the harder the task, the sparser the representation}. This sparsity--difficulty relation is observable across diverse models and domains, suggesting that harder inputs drive more concentrated activation patterns in the last hidden state. Through a series of controlled analyses and learning-dynamics experiments, we show that representational density is a learned property of data familiarity: models develop rich, distributed representations for mastered patterns, while unfamiliar inputs default to sparser activations. Our finding is also actionable. We illustrate this with Sparsity-Guided Curriculum In-Context Learning (SG-ICL), which uses sparsity to select few-shot demonstrations matched to the query's difficulty, outperforming standard CoT and Auto-CoT baselines on MATH-500. Our study provides new insights into how LLM representations reflect task difficulty and how this signal can be leveraged for inference.

Ray-Tracing-Based Dynamic Channel Sounding With Autoregressive Wi-Fi CSI Prediction

Lyutianyang Zhang, Yixin Ying, Liu Cao, Vanlin Sathya, Jinke Ren, Shuguang Cui

原文摘要

Channel sounding in Wi-Fi multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems must balance channel state information (CSI) accuracy against CSI acquisition overhead. Device mobility causes channel aging, while autoregressive CSI prediction introduces errors that accumulate over sounding intervals. However, standardized statistical channel models cannot fully capture the environment-specific channel dynamics encountered in physical artificial intelligence (AI) applications, motivating the use of Sionna-based ray tracing to evaluate CSI prediction under device mobility and evolving propagation geometry. This paper develops a dynamic sounding framework that integrates autoregressive CSI prediction with signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio (SINR)-constrained interval selection. A Transformer with rotary position embedding that converts device positions into CSI sequences predicts CSI across multiple subcarriers for beamforming updates between sounding exchanges. We formulate sounding-interval selection as a predicted average-throughput maximization problem under per-stream SINR lower-bound constraints, including CSI acquisition and processing overhead. A prediction-error perturbation analysis provides the SINR bounds, and cumulative-sum enumeration globally solves the finite single-variable problem. Actual SINR feasibility holds whenever the prediction errors satisfy the bounds. Ray-tracing experiments assess channel prediction, trajectory transfer, and autoregressive prediction errors. In single-STA Wi-Fi 7 link-level simulations, predicted-CSI beamforming improves mean goodput by 67.3%, 112.7%, and 119.1% over stale CSI for linear, circular, and cosine trajectories, respectively.

Graph-Mediated Large Language Model Systems in the Agentic Era: Reasoning, Knowledge, Retrieval, Execution, and Coordination

Haihui Liu, Yang Chen, Zice Qiu, Yun Zhang, Jialun Zhong, Wenhua Wang, Yanzeng Li, Tian Wang

原文摘要

Graphs play an increasingly important role in large language model (LLM) systems, supporting structural reasoning, knowledge grounding, retrieval, and memory. As these systems evolve toward the agentic era, graphs also organize execution dependencies and multi-agent communication, linking intermediate observations and retained information to subsequent decisions. However, understanding their contribution requires distinguishing the function of each graph operation, the component responsible for its computation, and the subsequent use of its output. This survey introduces an operation-level role--locus taxonomy for reasoning, knowledge and evidence, retrieval and memory, execution, and coordination. We compare how graph observations and external computations guide decisions, how memory representations and updates support later tasks, and how dependencies constrain execution and information delivery. These comparisons distinguish improvements in local metrics from downstream task performance while retaining the conditions under which results were reported. We then organize benchmarks, comparison designs, process diagnostics, and system costs into an evaluation framework. Finally, we identify open challenges in adaptive computation and stopping, memory maintenance, and dependency-aware recovery. The survey provides a basis for assessing when graph mechanisms are useful and for evaluating their effects across components and stages.

MedConstBench: Benchmarking How Constitutions Steer LLMs in Medical Ethics

Yibo Yang, Zerui Huang, Haomiao Yang, Zixia Wang

原文摘要

As large language models advance rapidly, they are increasingly used to answer medical questions, and many such models are now deployed locally. Once a model is deployed, its behavior is governed mainly by the ethical policy written into its constitution. However, most existing work focuses on factual correctness rather than the trade-off between competing ethical values. Even benchmarks that do evaluate ethics treat it as a fixed property of the model rather than as a variable, so how a constitution reshapes medical-ethics behavior remains largely unexplored. We introduce MedConstBench, a medical-ethics benchmark that treats the deployment constitution as a controlled variable, is organized around Beauchamp's four principles, and is scored by human-calibrated multi-model peer review. It includes MedDilemma, our own dataset of clinical dilemmas, and supports a systematic analysis of how constitutions steer LLMs. Evaluating ten open-source LLMs under four constitutions, we find that the effect of a constitution is dimension-selective and model-dependent, and that no constitution is universally optimal. Motivated by these findings, we propose a do-no-harm adaptive selector that chooses a constitution per model, matching the per-model oracle while guaranteeing a worst-case floor and generalizing to unseen models at low cost.

Disentangle to create: Architecture-level disentangled diffusion model for few-shot Chinese font generation

Jie Li, Suorong Yang, Jian Zhao, Furao Shen

原文摘要

Few-shot Chinese font generation aims to synthesize new characters in a target style using only a handful of reference images. Achieving accurate content rendering and faithful style transfer requires effective disentanglement between content and style. However, most existing approaches achieve only feature-level disentanglement and allow the generator to re-entangle these features, leading to content distortion and degraded style fidelity. To address this, we propose the Architecture-Level Disentangled Diffusion Model (ALD-Font) with an asymmetric design. The U-Net backbone takes SimSun-style glyphs as content templates, concatenated with noisy latents to construct a spatial canvas. Style features extracted from target-style images are injected as modulation signals to guide generation. Based on theoretical validation of disentanglement effectiveness, we adopt a parameter-efficient fine-tuning (PEFT) strategy that updates only the style-related modules. This allows the model to better adapt to new styles while avoiding overfitting to the reference images' content under the few-shot setting. Additionally, we train a Background Noise Removal (BNR) module in the pixel space to remove background noise in complex stroke regions. We further introduce the Grey and OCR metrics to evaluate the content quality of generated characters. Experimental results show that ALD-Font achieves significantly higher style fidelity while maintaining comparable content accuracy to existing state-of-the-art methods. The implementation is available at https://github.com/JayLee1002/ALD-Font.

BAM: Bivariate Additive Models for Interpretable Tabular Prediction

Atsushi Koike

原文摘要

Generalized Additive Models with pairwise interactions (GA$^2$Ms) are regarded as glass-box models, since each pairwise shape function can be visualized as a contour plot. In practice, the shape functions learned by methods such as EBM or NODE-GAM are so complex (irregular contours and sharp local fluctuations) that a practitioner cannot meaningfully interpret them or check them against domain knowledge. Auditability in this stronger sense requires substantially simpler shape functions. We argue that such simplification can match the accuracy of standard GAMs if the right feature pairs are captured. We propose Bivariate Additive Models (BAMs), a class of GA$^2$Ms in which every pairwise shape function is constrained to a simple parametric form, instantiated as an asymmetric bivariate Gaussian. Each component is visualizable as a unimodal contour map, and its feature pair is selected automatically during training. Experiments on six tabular benchmarks show that BAM attains predictive accuracy comparable to standard GAMs and approaches that of GA$^2$Ms. We also show the trade-off between accuracy and the number of components to inspect.

Deep Meets Classical: A CPU-Efficient Decision-Fusion Model for Automatic Modulation Classification

Zhiyi Yin, Zhizhao Wen, Ruoxin Zhang, Chao Wang, Puyang Xu, Yifan Jiang, Yusi Gong

原文摘要

Automatic modulation classification (AMC) underpins spectrum sensing and non-cooperative signal identification in cognitive radio, yet the two standard CPU-feasible approaches to it, a compact convolutional neural network (CNN) on raw in-phase and quadrature (I/Q) samples and a classical higher-order-cumulant feature classifier, are rarely compared against each other conditioned on signal-to-noise ratio (SNR). We show that they are, in fact, complementary: the CNN is markedly more robust at low SNR, where hand-crafted statistics collapse toward chance, while the cumulant classifier is more accurate at high SNR, where higher-order statistics cleanly separate dense constellations. We exploit this complementarity with FuseAMC, a lightweight decision-fusion model that trains a logistic-regression meta-combiner over the concatenated class-posteriors of an approximately 198k-parameter residual CNN and a gradient-boosted-tree cumulant classifier, on a validation split disjoint from test. On RadioML 2016.10a (5 seeds, 44k-frame held-out test set), FuseAMC reaches 55.8% overall accuracy, improving on the best cumulant-feature baseline by 5.1 points and on the CNN alone by 3.2 points (paired-bootstrap 95% confidence-interval lower bounds of 5.0 and 3.1 points, both positive), while matching the best classical baseline in its own strong high-SNR regime and the CNN in its strong low-SNR regime. With about 0.2 million parameters, a model footprint of a few megabytes, and roughly 3 MFLOPs per frame, the whole pipeline trains and runs on one CPU core, targeting general-purpose and embedded processors without hardware acceleration.

Split-KV: Efficient Context Parallelism for Training Diffusion Drafters

Geng Zhang, Fangzhao Zhang, Cong Xie, Tiantian Fan, Yang You

原文摘要

Diffusion drafters accelerate speculative decoding by denoising multiple draft tokens in parallel. Their training uses anchor sampling to construct compact draft queries and performs cross-attention with a block-sparse mask over a much longer context. We empirically show that acceptance length remains stable as context scales with a fixed query budget, while increasing the query budget yields diminishing quality gains, jointly establishing a practical regime with queries far shorter than the context. No existing context parallelism (CP) method jointly exploits this query--context asymmetry and meets the nonlinear, sample-dependent load-balancing requirement created by anchor sampling. We present Split-KV, an exact CP method that keeps key/value shards local and limits per-layer attention communication to query-sized tensors, making this communication independent of context length. Its global query view further enables a cost-aware longest-processing-time-first (LPT) strategy that balances context key/value chunks by their realized attention cost. At a CP size of 64, Split-KV retains 85--91\% weak-scaling efficiency and achieves up to $3.67\times$ speedup over the fastest available CP baseline. LPT achieves $<$1\% imbalance and plans three orders of magnitude faster than the best load-balancing baseline. Code is available at https://github.com/zxgx/verl.

ReMoA: Recursive Modular Adaptation via Sparse Latent Refinement in Multimodal Diffusion Models

Yuwei Sun, Yuxuan Yao, Hui Li, Weihao Yuan, Siyu Zhu

原文摘要

Diffusion models have achieved success in high-fidelity data synthesis, yet their capacity for more complex, structured reasoning such as text following remains constrained. While advances in language models have leveraged strategies such as latent reasoning and recursion to enhance text understanding capabilities, extending these to multimodal text-to-image generation tasks is challenging due to the continuous and non-discrete nature of visual tokens. To tackle this problem, we draw inspiration from modular human cognition and propose a Recursive Modular Adaptation (ReMoA) framework integrated into joint attention layers of conventional diffusion models, iteratively refining visual tokens over multiple recursion steps while efficiently sharing parameters via sparse selection of neural modules. Comprehensive evaluations on both class-conditioned ImageNet generation and text-to-image generation using the GenEval and DPG benchmarks demonstrate that recursive visual latent refinement contributes to richer object details and better-aligned outputs. Additionally, visual latent trajectory and routing analyses reveal that neural modules learn to specialize across diffusion timesteps, with each module's trajectories diverging at later, low-noise steps to support context-adaptive refinement. ReMoA increases recall for DiT-XL from 0.57 to 0.62 on ImageNet, and improves the overall GenEval score for SD3-medium from 68.33% to 71.18%, without introducing additional parameters through recursion.

Routes of Reasoning: Reading and Reshaping Test-Time Compute in MoE Models

Shengjie Wang, Mohsen Fayyaz, Nanyun Peng

原文摘要

Reasoning models allocate test-time compute across distinct behaviors such as planning, deriving, and verifying. However, models frequently "overthink," continuing to verify and re-derive long after finding a correct answer. This wastes expensive compute and can even degrade performance. Existing interventions, such as token budgets or steering, primarily regulate reasoning duration rather than targeting specific behaviors. In this work, we demonstrate that Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) routers provide a natural, training-free interface for behavioral control. We first split reasoning traces into sentence-level segments and label each with one of six reasoning behaviors (planning, execution, restatement, fact, reflection, and conclusion), so that every token carries the behavior of its segment. Linear probes on router logits predict this label nearly as well as probes on the residual stream, the model's full hidden state and the standard target for probing, while using about half as many features. These signals generalize: experts associated with a reasoning behavior on one dataset predict the same behavior on the others, across six datasets spanning five domains (math, code, science, knowledge, and commonsense). Building on this, we selectively edit expert router scores during inference to curb overthinking. Across four models and four benchmarks, this intervention reduces the number of generated tokens by a median of 30.4% (and up to 63.3%). Crucially, it encourages the model to stop once the problem is solved, rather than skipping essential reasoning steps. Accuracy never drops by more than 0.5 percentage points, and frequently improves. Ultimately, MoE routing offers both an interpretable lens into reasoning states and a lightweight mechanism for optimizing test-time compute.

Autonomous ETL Pipelines for Salesforce M&A Consolidation: A Reference Framework, Jitterbit Mapping, and Reproducible Simulation Study

Imran Basha Shaik, Sahla Sultana, Khader Moinuddin Shaik

原文摘要

Merging companies that each run Salesforce must consolidate their customer data into a single organization while both source systems remain in use. This requires reconciling different schemas and picklists, resolving duplicate customers across and within organizations, preserving relationships between records, and keeping the target current until cutover. This article proposes a reference framework for an autonomous extract-transform-load pipeline for this task. It combines partitioned bulk extraction, declarative mapping templates, rule-based and statistical quality gates, master data management with deterministic and blocked fuzzy matching, constrained loading with per-record error capture, and change data capture guarded by a data-health circuit breaker. Each stage is mapped to Jitterbit Integration Studio constructs. The framework was implemented as an open reference prototype and evaluated on synthetic two-organization scenarios with known ground truth at three scales, from 32,040 to 383,973 source records, over five random seeds. At a preset threshold, hybrid matching reached pairwise F1 scores of 0.918 for accounts and 0.885 for contacts; calibrating the threshold per object would raise these to 0.938 and 0.963. The quality gates prevented all load failures and all silent loss of unmapped picklist values without wrongly flagging any clean record, whereas removing them produced about 1,000 load failures per run. Over five simulated days of hourly incremental synchronization, replayed events were ignored, an injected upstream fault was contained in the batch in which it occurred, and the target agreed with a full rebuild on more than 99.3 percent of field values. Validation on a production deployment remains future work.

A Financial Brain Scan of the LLM

Hui Chen, Antoine Didisheim, Mo Pourmohammadi, Luciano Somoza, Hanqing Tian

原文摘要

We use sparse autoencoders (SAEs) to "brain scan" large language models, mapping internal activations to interpretable concepts and enabling targeted "steering" of specific features. We show that prompting models to adopt specific preferences activates many unintended concepts, complicating causal inference. In contrast, SAEs permit smooth, more isolated steering of target concepts. Furthermore, our scans reveal a stark disconnect between the model's internal feature contributions and its self-generated explanations, showing that these explanations are unreliable guides to its reasoning. Finally, SAEs provide a lightweight intervention for existing models, producing interpretable embeddings and allowing researchers to attenuate specific economic biases.

Autonomous agents for electricity-system planning

Yoon Pyo Lee, Samrendra Roy, Jay Phil Yoo, Kazuma Kobayashi, Souvik Chakraborty, Syed Bahauddin Alam

原文摘要

Planning electricity systems requires repeated decisions that connect regional resources, investment, operation and network constraints. Here we present an autonomous planning framework that carries prepared regional scenarios through proposal, numerical evaluation, feedback interpretation, redesign and final plan selection. Agents propose investment bounds, storage operating conditions and feeder interventions, interpret numerical feedback, and decide how to revise designs and when to stop. The framework automatically executes annual investment-and-dispatch optimization and representative-feeder verification, applies fixed acceptance criteria and retains the lowest-cost accepted candidate. We evaluate forty carbon-constrained trajectories across ten system-year scenarios in five electricity systems and four countries, using two model deployments and single- and multi-agent architectures. All forty retain candidates satisfying the implemented physical and fixed annual operational carbon-budget checks. Twenty-eight of forty matched reference designs exceed the new scenario ceilings. A separate archive of ninety-six trajectories under a common 1,000 Mt annual ceiling provides matched references and broader regional coverage. The results demonstrate autonomous planning under explicit emissions constraints using public regional data and published institutional demand outlooks.

Do Saliency Maps Fail Dense Breasts? A Chance-Normalized, Confounder-Aware Audit of Explanation Fairness in Mammography

Ahmed Jaheen

原文摘要

Saliency maps, offered as evidence that mammography classifiers use the cancer, are untested in dense breasts, which can hide cancers. We tested whether they locate cancers worse there, and why. On 1,345 malignant CBIS-DDSM views, we scored three CNNs' Grad-CAM, Integrated Gradients and occlusion maps by whether their peak hits the lesion and a chance-normalized lesion-to-background saliency ratio (bits; +1 doubles it). Unadjusted gaps were large: Grad-CAM peaks hit 44% of dense vs. 58% of non-dense lesions. Case mix, chiefly more calcifications in dense breasts, explained about half or more of each gap. Occlusion kept a significant average of -0.56 bit gap. Controls also implicate the classifiers: unadjusted gaps exceeded an image-only conspicuity map's, and models relied less on dense-breast lesions. We recommend reporting density gaps before and after case-mix adjustment, per classifier, with conspicuity and lesion-reliance controls.

GaP: A Graph-as-Policy Multi-Agent Self-Learning Harness For Variational Automation Tasks

Kaiyuan Chen, Shuangyu Xie, Letian Fu, Justin Yu, William Pacini, Sandeep Bajamahal, Hudson Kim, Jaimyn Drake 等 24 位作者

原文摘要

For robots to work reliably in commercial and industrial applications, recent advances in agentic coding systems have potential to combine interpretable robot programming with the open-world adaptability of model-free policies. We focus on "Variational Automation" (VA), a class of tasks that have larger variations in object geometry and pose than fixed automation. Model-free policies often struggle to close the reliability gap for VA tasks, which must be executed persistently and reliably in commercial and industrial applications. Motivated by prior work on Task and Motion Planning (TAMP) and the Robot Operating System (ROS), we introduce Graph-as-Policy (GaP), a multi-agent coding harness that generates directed computation graphs with perception, planning, and control nodes from a Modular Open Robot Skill Library (MORSL). GaP generates an internal simulation environment to rehearse task instances with different graphs in parallel to iteratively refine the graph structure and parameters to improve success rates and throughput. Evaluation with 8 new open VA task benchmarks, 4 in simulation and 4 in real-world, suggests that GaP can achieve success rates that significantly outperform baselines.

Does Your Trial Simulator Know What the Drug Does? An Intervention-Blind Test of Interventional Validity on 7,207 Registered Trials

Alicem Koyun

原文摘要

Patient world models are increasingly proposed as simulators of clinical trials, and recent surveys rank their capabilities on a ladder from temporal prediction to counterfactual rollouts. Position on that ladder is currently assigned by reading papers rather than by measurement. We turn the counterfactual rung into a measured quantity. From 30,119 completed phase 2/3 trials with results posted to ClinicalTrials.gov we construct 9,996 audited within-trial contrasts from 7,207 trials, and we score a simulator on how much of its accuracy depends on knowing which intervention was tested. The instrument is an intervention-blind reference: the same model, trained on the same trials, with every intervention-identifying field withheld. Interventional skill is the error the full model removes relative to that reference. On a temporal split (878 test contrasts from 655 trials) a registry-trained gradient-boosting simulator removes a fifth of the error of a trivial baseline, but its interventional skill is -0.12 (95% CI -0.21 to -0.05): withholding the intervention makes it better, and no alternative featurisation, stratum, temporal cut or same-molecule retrieval yields an interval above zero. A frontier language model reading only the registered protocol has interventional skill 0.20 [0.08, 0.31]; smaller and open-weight models sit at the limit of detection. Perturbation tests show the large model uses the intervention as such: swapping the arms reverses the sign of its prediction in 86% of contrasts. The blind reference is itself not drug-blind (a language model recovers the withheld drug class 45% of the time from the blind prompt), so interventional skill is a conservative lower bound. A reliability layer shows that ranking by predicted error lowers it but that calibrated error control does not transfer under temporal shift. Benchmark, code, prompts and per-call model outputs are released.

CHARM+: Cross-Hardware Attention with Re-Merge Multistream Mechanism

Xinhang Zhang, Boning Zhang, Chengchun Liu, Chunpu Li, Lei Sun, Weifeng Zhang, Limin Xiao

原文摘要

As sequence lengths continue to grow, distributed attention based on sequence parallel (e.g., Ring-Attention) has become a mainstream solution for large language models (LLMs). Nevertheless, inherent communication dependencies limit computation-communication overlap, reducing GPU utilization. Moreover, in cross-hardware (NUMA or node) architectures, due to imbalanced communication bandwidth, frequent communication synchronization will limit overall performance. Based on these insights, we propose CHARM+, Cross-Hardware Attention with Re-Merge Multistream Mechanism. We reorganize sequential communications into several levels and achieve intra-level parallelism and computation overlap. Furthermore, we decouple cross-hardware communication from intra-hardware communication, eliminating synchronization overhead caused by bandwidth imbalance. Forward and backward algorithms were evaluated on multiple hardware architectures and consistently outperformed state-of-the-art methods. Compared to Ring-Attention, our forward and backward algorithms achieve average speedups of 1.3x and 1.7x on a dual-NUMA PCIe architecture, and 2.8x and 2.9x on a dual-node NVLink architecture, respectively.

FloMo: 3D Scene Flow as a World Action Model Intermediate for Learning from Human Video

Jeremy Collins, Namra Patel, Ayush Agarwal, Shitij Govil, Animesh Garg

原文摘要

Pretrained video generation models distill internet-scale motion priors into robot policies, but full video is a redundant signal for action prediction. We argue that dense 3D motion is the medium through which video pretraining best transfers to robot actions, and that predicting motion rather than video affords better sample-efficiency for action prediction. FloMo is a 5B video-generation model fine-tuned to predict 3D scene-flow and action tokens. Rendering scene flow as RGB and encoding it into the same latent space as video enables a pretrained video generation backbone to efficiently adapt to predict 3D scene flow. Co-trained on action-free human video and action-labeled robot teleoperation data, our model benefits from human-video pretraining and generalizes to unseen objects, motion primitives, and tasks. Replacing motion prediction with a video prediction objective degrades out-of-distribution generalization, while adding a video prediction target alongside motion lowers policy success rather than improving it. When motion, video, and action are predicted jointly, action tokens attend far more to motion than to video, suggesting that predicting video wastes model capacity. Together, these results indicate that motion effectively mediates the transfer from video pretraining to action. More information can be found at flomo-wam.github.io.
