Using the HealthContradict dataset, this study evaluates six open-weight LLMs under five evidence conditions, finding that conflicting evidence reduces accuracy and causes 11.4%–25.2% of predictions to flip. A conflict-aware abstention score improves selective accuracy by up to 33.4 points in the hardest conditions.

This paper introduces Inquisitive Conversational Agents (ICAs) and develops one tailored to U.S. Supreme Court oral arguments using a Dual Hierarchical Reinforcement Learning framework. Two cooperating RL agents coordinate strategic dialogue management and utterance generation to emulate judicial questioning patterns, systematically uncovering crucial legal information. Evaluations show superior performance over baselines, marking an important step toward high-stakes domain-specific applications.

It is the first Spanish-native cybersecurity LLM with end-to-end MCP integration, running sub-second on commodity hardware.

This paper systematically evaluates six vector merging methods for multilingual knowledge editing (MKE). Vector summation with shared covariance is the most reliable strategy, while simple summation performs poorly. TSVM offers limited improvement in reducing multilingual interference. Performance is sensitive to weight scaling and rank compression ratio, with larger scaling and lower rank often yielding better results.

Collider-Bench is a new benchmark for evaluating whether LLM agents can reproduce experimental analyses from the Large Hadron Collider using only public papers and open scientific software. Agents must build simulation-and-selection pipelines and predict collision event yields. Evaluation uses histogram metrics and an LLM judge to catch failures. Initial results show no agent reliably beats the physicist-in-the-loop solution.

This work interprets weighted InfoNCE objectives as distance geometry problems, providing a unified geometric framework for weighted contrastive learning. In supervised classification, SupCon and Soft SupCon collapse samples within each class to a single prototype, but class imbalance breaks SupCon's symmetry, while Soft SupCon retains regular simplex geometry. In continuous-label settings, y-Aware CL generally cannot achieve its entropic optimum unless labels lie on a hypersphere. Geometrically consistent choices like Euclidean-Euclidean weighting or X-CLR guarantee unique optimal embeddings.

EvolveMem is a self-evolving memory architecture that automatically optimizes retrieval configurations via an AutoResearch process, achieving significant performance gains across multiple benchmarks.

Diffusion language models are a promising alternative to autoregressive models, but current post-training methods that maximize rewards lead to a failure mode called trajectory locking, where probability mass concentrates on a narrow set of denoising paths, reducing coverage of alternative correct solutions. The proposed TraFL (Trajectory Flow baLancing) uses a trajectory-balance objective to train the policy toward a reward-tilted target distribution anchored to a frozen reference model, with a diffusion-compatible sequence-level surrogate and learned prompt-dependent normalization. TraFL is the only method that improves over the base model in all benchmark settings, with gains that persist as sampling budget increases, and transfers to held-out evaluations.
