정답이 여럿이면 투표는 실패한다: LLM Best-of-K 인과 추론을 위한 기호 검증
Self-consistency assumes the most frequent answer among sampled reasoning traces is the most reliable, but this can fail in causal reasoning: samples often repeat the same confounding error, and votes fragment across multiple valid answers, letting an invalid answer win despite a valid minority trace. We introduce CALVER (Causal Axiom-Level VERification), a training-free symbolic verifier that scores structured traces against Pearl's causal criteria, including -separation, backdoor adjustment, and intervention, and selects the highest-scoring candidate without consulting a reference answer. On CLEAR find-one-valid queries that admit multiple graph-valid answers, CALVER reaches 42.1% where plurality, a reward model, an LLM judge, and model confidence remain near 30% on identical frozen pools. Scaling the judge to 72B does not close the gap. In an audited clean-core subset, 11 of 21 graph-valid CALVER selections differ from the benchmark's listed answer while still satisfying the request

HydraHead: 헤드 수준 기능 이질성에서 특화 어텐션 하이브리드화까지
The quadratic complexity of attention poses a critical bottleneck for long-context processing, spurring interest in hybrid attention designs. Most open-source hybrid models adopt a layer-wise strategy. Yet, prior work has noted the inherent difficulty of integrating Linear Attention (LA) with Full Attention (FA), suggesting that the design space of attention hybridization remains underexplored. To probe this space, we conduct interpretability analysis and observe that layers exhibit block-wise functional similarity, while individual heads within the same layer display distinct functional specialization despite sharing input features. This head-level heterogeneity suggests that the head dimension provides a natural and principled granularity for fusing heterogeneous attention signals. Building on this insight, we introduce HydraHead, a novel architecture that hybridizes FA and LA along the head axis. HydraHead features two key innovations: (1) an interpretability-driven selection strate

ComBodied Agents: 인간 중심 Agentic AI의 새로운 패러다임
After an older adult misses a medication dose, a software agent can send another reminder and an embodied agent can bring the medication. Yet neither explains whether the person forgot, is confused, has side effects, or deliberately refused, nor what support is appropriate. This reveals a structural gap in Agentic AI: Digital Agents primarily transform software states, while Embodied Agents transform physical states; neither makes a person's evolving state and agency the primary object of modeling, intervention, and evaluation. We introduce Combodied Agents, a human-centered paradigm that perceives, models, predicts, and supports individual human-state trajectories over time, using software tools, sensors, wearables, robots, and human services as action channels rather than end goals. We unify fragmented capabilities across personal assistants, health agents, AI companions, and adaptive human--AI systems into a closed loop: event-based multimodal perception reconstructs meaningful pers

SkillZip: 재사용 가능한 구조 발견으로 구현한 자기진화 에이전트용 평가 없는 스킬 압축
Self-evolving agents accumulate reusable skills by appending successful procedures and failure fixes. Over time, the same requirement is often restated in several branches, examples, and warnings, while common action sequences are copied rather than reused. The resulting skill becomes expensive to inject and difficult to maintain. Generic prompt compression is ill-suited to this setting because a skill is not a flat passage: its name and description define when it applies, its workflow controls execution, its tool and output contracts constrain validity, and rare exceptions may remain essential even when no sampled task activates them. Evaluation-guided compression can test these behaviors, but it introduces rollouts, cost, and dependence on the compression-time evaluation set. We present SkillZip, an evaluation-free method that compresses a skill by finding its shortest faithful structural explanation. The intuition is explain once, reference many: state a repeated rule once at the sc

AdvFD: Adversarial Fr'echet Distance Loss로 시각 생성 성능 강화
Fréchet distance has recently emerged as an effective distribution-level objective for generator post-training, complementing the conventional sample-level diffusion and flow-matching losses. However, directly optimizing Fréchet objectives can cause Fréchet hacking. The target metrics keep improving, but visual quality and Fréchet alignment in other feature spaces may stagnate or deteriorate. We attribute this failure to the static pretrained feature spaces used by existing Fréchet losses. These feature spaces provide incomplete and fixed views of the differences between real and generated distributions. To address this limitation, we propose Adversarial Fréchet Distance (AdvFD), which complements the static representation targets in FD-Loss with a calibrated adversarially learned representation. AdvFD augments the original static Fréchet objective with a learnable representation that adversarially maximizes the Fréchet discrepancy between real and generated samples, while the generato

UniMoMo: 전문가 병합 기반 MoE 가속으로 대형 추천 모델 효율화
Sparse mixture-of-experts (MoE) layers expand recommendation capacity through conditional computation, yet a trained checkpoint still stores and routes over its full expert bank. We study a deployment problem: convert that checkpoint to a smaller standard MoE under an explicit expert budget, without adding a compression-specific online module. To address this, we introduce UniMoMo, a post-training compression framework formulated as a constrained graph coarsening problem. Rather than relying on parameter distance, UniMoMo groups experts based on their functional similarity, using an unlabeled calibration set to measure how similarly experts respond to shared recommendation states. To prevent performance degradation, we introduce a layer-adaptive protection mechanism that restricts the merging of high-traffic experts based on their routing exposure. Across Amazon Beauty, KuaiRec, and TenRec with 2, 4, and 6 MoE blocks, the final four-expert checkpoints obtain source-relative five-run me

TSDS-Toolbox: 시계열 데이터셋 유사도 측정 도구 모음
The rapid advancement of artificial intelligence (AI) has significantly accelerated research in time-series analysis, particularly in forecasting, classification, and generation tasks. Recent models, especially foundation models, benefit from time-series dataset similarity due to its significant role in source dataset selection for fine-tuning. However, many existing implementations for benchmarking time-series dataset similarity methods are fragmented and difficult to extend. To address this, we present a unified framework, the Time-Series Dataset Similarity Toolbox (TSDS-Toolbox). Our work enables (1) systematic and reproducible comparisons of time-series dataset similarity methods; (2) flexible extensibility for users to add customized datasets, similarity methods, and downstream time-series tasks; and (3) consistent evaluation of both dataset-level and series-level similarity methods through integrated time-series dataset reducers. The effectiveness of TSDS-Toolbox is validated thr

Vera: 콘텐츠 보존형 비디오 편집을 위한 계층형 확산 모델
Video diffusion models have enabled remarkable progress in video generation and editing. However, content preservation remains a core challenge: existing methods regenerate every pixel and often alter elements that should remain unchanged, such as characters or background scenes. We introduce Vera, a layered diffusion framework for content-preserving video editing. Instead of regenerating the entire video, Vera generates an edit layer along with an alpha matte for compositing with the source video, separating creative editing from content preservation by design. To encourage coherent composition with the source video, we extend the text-to-video DiT into a Mixture-of-Transformers (MoT) architecture, with separate DiTs for each layer that interact through joint self-attention. To support the training of Vera, we further construct a high-quality layered dataset with accurate alpha mattes, diverse scenes and dynamics, and visual effects.

Harness Handbook: 진화하는 에이전트 하네스를 더 읽기 쉽고 탐색·수정하기 쉽게 만드는 법
The capability of a modern AI agent depends not only on its foundation model but also on its harness, which constructs prompts, manages state, invokes tools, and coordinates execution. As models, APIs, environments, and requirements evolve, the harness must be continually modified. Before such a change can be made, a developer or coding agent must identify all code locations that implement the target behavior. This is difficult because production harnesses are large, tightly coupled, and behaviorally distributed, while modification requests describe what the system should do and repositories are organized by files and modules. Code search, repository indexing, and long-context processing ease inspection, but still leave this behavior-to-code mapping to be recovered by hand. Behavior localization is therefore a central bottleneck in harness evolution. We introduce the Harness Handbook, a behavior-centric representation synthesized automatically from a harness codebase via static analysi

CoinRAG: 장문맥 RAG를 위한 문맥화된 정보 너깃 KV 캐시 재사용
Recent optimization studies on Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) have exploited chunk-level KV cache reuse to avoid processing long retrieved contexts for higher efficiency, while significant information redundancy and noise still remain in the coarse-grained chunks. This paper optimizes the Pareto frontier under low prefill latency constraints while maximizing accuracy by proposing CoinRAG (Contextualized Information Nugget KV Cache Reuse for Long-Context RAG). The name metaphorically reflects our core mechanism: much like assembling small tokens (or "coins") to accumulate a larger value, CoinRAG compositionally reuses offline-computed, fine-grained nugget caches to form a learned contextual representation efficiently in a more semantically relevant but compact manner. Specifically, instead of full-chunk encoding, CoinRAG identifies query-relevant semantic units within retrieved chunks through two-stage retrieval and seamlessly assembles their sliced KV representations with a chunk

정지 상태 관측만으로 구현한 관절형 객체 재구성
Building interactive digital twins requires recovering both 3D geometry and the kinematic structures that govern how objects articulate. Yet existing methods for articulated object reconstruction require explicitly observable motion from multiple articulation states. We introduce a rest-state formulation that reconstructs articulated objects from a single closed configuration, an inherently ill-posed setting where geometry, semantics, and motion priors compensate for the absence of motion cues. Our framework adopts an explicit mesh as an intermediate representation for cross-model verification and fusion, reconciling noisy outputs from vision-language and segmentation models into spatially consistent part structures. To estimate joint parameters without observed motion, we use a video diffusion model to synthesize articulation hypotheses and validate them through geometric consistency. Our approach achieves accurate part decomposition and physically plausible articulation, performing c

SPIEval: 흩어진 개인 정보를 바탕으로 모바일 비서 역할을 하는 LLM 평가
Large language models (LLMs) are increasingly deployed as mobile assistants, where a key challenge is leveraging personal information scattered across multiple applications (apps) to complete user instructions. However, due to the lack of dedicated benchmarks, their capabilities remain poorly understood. To address this gap, we introduce SPIEval, a human-curated benchmark grounded in five cognitive capabilities (i.e., reasoning, disambiguation, integration, preference inference, and multi-intent decomposition). SPIEval comprises 250 tasks spanning 4,335 personal records distributed across 10 apps and supports multi-turn interaction through 21 tools. Analysis shows that the benchmark exhibits diverse scenarios, challenging tasks, scattered information, controllable environments, and verifiable outcomes. We evaluate nine representative LLMs and find substantial room for improvement. The best-performing model, GPT-5.5 (xhigh), achieves only 57.3% accuracy, while the weakest achieves just

JigShape: 직소 퍼즐로 VLM의 시각-기하 추론 능력 평가
Jigsaw puzzle solving requires jointly reasoning about visual content and geometric constraints, yet existing benchmarks use rectangular cuts that create ambiguous ground truth in texture-repeated regions. We introduce \ours{}, a benchmark with tab-and-blank interlocking pieces where geometric constraints provide strong local compatibility requirements that, combined with visual content, yield unambiguous ground truth. Across 95K instances at four grid densities (4times4 to 16times16), we find that zero-shot VLMs largely lack geometric reasoning: only one of five frontier models (GPT-5.5) exceeds random baseline on 4times4 puzzles, while all others perform at chance level. While supervised fine-tuning achieves >97\% on 4times4, all models collapse on larger grids: GPT-5.5 drops from 70\% to near-random on 8times8, and even fine-tuned models fall below 5\% on 12times12. This ``scaling cliff'' suggests current architectures cannot maintain consistent constraint satisfaction as the number

iFAN: Plain Mask Transformer를 위한 추론 인식 학습
Query-based mask transformers assemble segmentation outputs through pixel-wise competition among query predictions of the final layer, yet this inference process is not explicitly optimized during training. We identify two key mismatches: the query with the highest probability-mask score does not necessarily produce the most accurate mask, and final-layer decoding may discard superior predictions from intermediate layers. To address these issues, we propose Inference-Aware Learning (iFAN), a general training framework for plain mask transformers. iFAN introduces Adjusted Probability-Mask Ranking (APMR), which aligns query competition with predicted mask quality and suppresses high-confidence but inaccurate competitors. We further employ Cross-Layer Self-Distillation (CLSD) to transfer stronger intermediate predictions to the final layer. The ranking and distillation objectives are training-only, while inference retains efficient final-layer decoding. Experiments on COCO, ADE20K, and Ci

디코딩 단계의 금기: LLM 강건성 진단용 스트레스 테스트
Large language model evaluations typically focus on performance under nominal conditions, creating an illusion of capability where models comfortably walk a narrow, highly optimized generation corridor. In real-world deployments, however, complex system prompts, safety guardrails, and structural constraints continuously force models off this nominal path, driving a divergence between benchmark scores and deployment performance. To address this issue, we introduce Decoding-Level Taboo, a zero-prompt diagnostic stress test that intervenes directly in logit space at runtime, forcing models out of their nominal paths. By dynamically masking primary candidate tokens at word boundaries, Taboo forces machine circumlocution.
Evaluating Taboo across several open-weight model families reveals that off-path robustness is heavily influenced by both parameter scale and post-training instruction alignment, with robustness generally improving with model size and alignment. Beyond the results presen

토큰 하나 더 쓸 가치가 없다: 효율적 딥리서치 에이전트를 위한 한계 가치 추정
Long-horizon research agents solve open-ended tasks through iterative retrieval, aggregation, and synthesis, but context grows rapidly while the marginal value of additional evidence often declines. This leads to unnecessary token cost, higher latency, and noisier inputs for final report generation. We study marginal value estimation for context management in deep research agents and present the first systematic stage-aware comparison of pruning strategies across the pipeline. We evaluate lightweight heuristic criteria and a learned value model at pre-retrieval, post-retrieval, and pre-synthesis stages. Our results show that pruning effectiveness depends more on where pruning is applied than on the specific scoring rule: early pruning yields the largest end-to-end savings, while later pruning mainly refines the final synthesis context. Lightweight heuristics reduce token usage by up to 73% with little quality degradation, learned pruning remains competitive on selected trade-offs, and

AI4AI at Test-Time: Harness 기반 강한 능력의 약한 모델 전이
Recent work on distillation transfers the capabilities of large models to smaller ones often by updating the latter's parameters, through teacher forcing, on-policy distillation, and related training-time methods. In this paper, we ask whether such transfer can instead occur at test time. We study strong-to-weak scaffolding: whether a stronger builder model can construct inference-time harnesses that help a weaker target model solve tasks more reliably without any parameter updates. Using four representative Theory-of-Mind benchmarks, each builder model uses 5% of the data as a validation set to iteratively refine its harness over multiple rounds, after which the finalized harness is evaluated on the full test set. Empirically, this form of test-time capability transfer is highly effective, nearly doubling average target-model performance from 0.49 to 0.91. Our analysis shows that the gains come primarily from offloading unstable model reasoning into deterministic code, benchmark-speci

Tapered Language Models
Modern language models, including transformer, recurrent, and memory-based variants, share a common chassis: a stack of identical layers in which parameters are allocated uniformly across depth. This is a default inherited from the original transformer and largely unchanged since, yet a growing body of evidence suggests that layers contribute non-uniformly to the final output, with later layers refining the residual stream rather than transforming it. We ask whether parameter capacity should reflect this asymmetry. Our controlled experiment shows that, under a fixed budget, allocating more capacity to earlier layers and less to later layers improves perplexity over a uniform-width baseline, while the reverse allocation hurts. Building on this result, we introduce Tapered Language Models (TLMs), an architectural principle in which a parameter-bearing component is monotonically tapered across depth under a fixed total budget. MLPs are the natural site for this instantiation: they dominat

Counsel: 에이전트 과제용 메타 평가 데이터셋
As agentic systems tackle increasingly complex multi-step tasks, evaluating their trajectories presents a major bottleneck - human annotation of a single trajectory on popular agentic benchmarks can take hours, making it difficult to scale evaluations for measuring performance or curating training data. This has driven widespread reliance on automated approaches such as LLM-as-a-judge (LLMJ) to critique agents at the process and outcome-levels at scale, however, the soundness of LLMJ critiques often goes unmeasured. Here, we introduce Counsel, the first public dataset of meta-evaluations for agentic tasks. Counsel consists of process-level critiques from open-weight LLMJs on two agent benchmarks: tau-bench (customer support agents) and DA-Code (coding agents), and human meta-evaluations of these critiques. Human annotators label critiques on each flagged error as "spot on", "correct location but poor reasoning", or "should not have flagged", achieving reliable inter-annotator agreement

SkillZip: 확장형 Agent 스킬 라이브러리를 위한 계약 보존 그래프 압축
Large Language Models (LLMs) increasingly act as agents whose procedural knowledge is stored in reusable skill packages and loaded at inference time. As skill libraries grow, a central challenge is to expose the smallest sufficient executable context under a limited context budget. Existing systems struggle to reuse routines below the whole-skill level, preserve procedural contracts during compression, keep compressed routines executable and expandable, and update the compressed library as skills evolve. These challenges reveal a unit mismatch: skills are retrieved as packages, compressed as text, and converted into execution graphs only after retrieval, whereas reliable reuse requires a contract-bearing procedural unit. We propose SkillZip, an execution-aware procedural abstraction framework that performs contract-preserving compression over section-level graphs. SkillZip rewrites recurring contract-valid motifs into reversible ported macros while preserving boundary signatures, depen

스킬 Harness 진화로 스스로 발전하는 Embodied Agent
Embodied agents are increasingly built as systems around foundation models, where performance depends not only on model weights but also on the skills, context, action interfaces, and execution harness surrounding the model. While supervised fine-tuning and reinforcement learning can adapt agents to new environments, they require additional data, rewards, and training runs; meanwhile, many train-free code-centric approaches rely on programmable robot APIs that may be unavailable in fixed-interface settings. We propose SHAPER, a self-evolving framework for train-free embodied adaptation that keeps model parameters frozen and improves the non-parametric agent system by evolving reusable skills and a context-code harness through target-environment rollouts. In SHAPER, the same frozen model can serve as both planner and optimizer, refining its external skills and context-code harness without parameter updates. We evaluate SHAPER on VLABench and ESI-Bench, covering embodied agents with diff

Agent 안전은 런타임 계약이어야 한다
The dominant paradigm treats AI safety as a property to be instilled during model training via RLHF, DPO, or Constitutional AI. We argue this is structurally insufficient for autonomous agents that execute code, mutate files, send messages, and modify databases. Agent safety should be a runtime contract enforced by the harness, and the contract has two complementary faces. The preventive face blocks dangerous actions before they happen via sandboxes, permission gates, output filters, and trajectory monitors. The evidential face requires verifiable proof that good actions actually happened, gating task submission on hard evidence such as test runs, log captures, file diffs, and citation grounding. We ground the position in four lines of public evidence, with row-level protocols and data released in the supplementary JSON files: a survey of 52 documented AI-agent and LLM safety incidents, a false-completion audit with 31 non-contested core cases plus one disputed illustrative case, a tra

AtlasVLA: Vision-Language-Action 모델을 위한 지속형 월드-에고 상태 모델링
While Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models have advanced embodied AI, their fundamentally reactive paradigm severely limits performance in partially observable and long-horizon tasks. When restricted to a single wrist-mounted camera, they inevitably suffer from perception forgetting as objects exit the field of view, and temporal task-progress forgetting} during multi-step execution. To overcome these bottlenecks, we propose AtlasVLA, a novel framework that transitions from direct reactive manipulation to proactive reasoning through a persistent world-ego state. AtlasVLA features a dual-memory architecture: a 4D Persistent World State Memory that lifts transient 2D observations into a globally updated, voxel-hashed spatial state to resolve visual blind spots, and an Ego-Working State Memory that tracks historical ego state and task progress. By conditioning a diffusion transformer (DiT) on this joint World-Ego state, AtlasVLA enables robust spatial reasoning. Extensive evaluations acros

AutoWorldModel-Bench: 자동화된 World Model 연구를 위한 상태 중심 벤치마크
World modeling is an unsettled field: architectures, training objectives, and state representations interact in complex ways, and no single recipe dominates across environments. This makes it an ideal testbed for AI coding agents acting as autonomous researchers--a setting in which the improvement direction is not specified in advance, unlike the engineering-to-spec tasks that dominate current agent benchmarks. We introduce AutoWorldModel-Bench, a closed-loop benchmark in which frontier coding agents autonomously improve a provided world-model starter under a fixed compute budget. The benchmark spans eight game environments under a unified structured-state representation--ground-truth entity state extracted from each game and consumed through a shared tensor format--which isolates dynamics modeling from perception and enables minutes-per-run iteration.

합성부터 제거까지: 물리 기반 반사 시뮬레이션과 확산 기반 비디오 반사 제거
Videos captured through glass often contain reflections that degrade visual quality and interfere with downstream vision tasks. Although single-image reflection removal has been extensively studied, video reflection removal remains largely underexplored due to the lack of paired video data, temporally coherent removal models, and dedicated evaluation benchmarks. We present a closed-loop framework that unifies physics-grounded reflection simulation, diffusion-based video dereflection, and benchmark evaluation. Our S2R-Synthesis pipeline generates paired reflected and reflection-free videos by performing physics-grounded augmentation in the structure space and rendering realistic reflected videos with a trained video diffusion renderer; the augmentation models key glass-related effects including roughness-induced blur, thickness-induced ghosting, and reflectance variation. Based on the synthesized data, we introduce S2R-Removal, the first diffusion-based video reflection removal model, w

StateFlow: 프리비주얼라이제이션을 위한 3D 월드 상태 구축·진화·접근
Previsualization is an intermediate layer between ideas and production in film, games, architecture, and urban design. It lets creators iteratively refine scenes, actions, cameras, and spatial-temporal dynamics. Yet existing generative methods rely on simple prompts to jointly control all of these factors through one-shot image or video synthesis, offering weak controllability and limited support for iterative editing. Fundamentally, a world comprises multiple elements with geometry, appearance, and other attributes, together with cameras. Different frames are produced through local modifications or recombinations of this shared state, which is otherwise largely reused. Therefore, we argue that the missing component is an explicit and persistent working state. To address this, we present StateFlow, a state-centric framework for generative previsualization. Rather than generating videos in one shot, StateFlow uses an editable 3D world to organize scene structure, evolution, and cameras,

NeuPAT: 언어 보존형 MLLM을 위한 뉴런 인지 가소성 할당 튜닝
Multimodal expansion of large language models (LLMs) enables new perceptual capabilities but often compromises the language intelligence acquired during pretraining. In this work, we investigate this phenomenon from the perspective of internal adaptation dynamics and discover that neurons in pretrained LLMs exhibit heterogeneous plasticity during multimodal learning: some neurons are critical for preserving language capabilities, while others are more adaptive to multimodal knowledge. Based on this insight, we propose NeuPAT (Neuron-aware Plasticity Allocation Tuning), a lightweight and architecture-agnostic framework that allocates neuron-wise update constraints during multimodal instruction tuning. NeuPAT uses a small-scale probing stage to estimate neuron adaptation patterns and selectively protects language-sensitive neurons while promoting multimodal adaptation through more plastic neurons. Experiments across diverse LLM families demonstrate that NeuPAT recovers 94.5\% of the lang

Discrete diffusion models for categorical generation are defined by a corruption kernel, which determines the intermediate state space and the associated reverse prediction problem. We study uniform discrete diffusion and ask whether its training objective and reverse transitions can be enriched without changing the underlying categorical corruption process. We introduce Simplax, an exact Dirichlet--categorical augmentation that couples each corrupted categorical state with an auxiliary simplex-valued variable while preserving the original uniform diffusion process as its categorical marginal. This augmentation yields a tractable Rao--Blackwellized reverse-bridge objective and a corresponding stochastic reverse sampler, while retaining the corrupted categorical state as the denoiser input.

Long-horizon tasks are common in real-world robotic deployments, yet failure detection for such tasks remains underexplored.

We present Foresight, a failure detection framework that monitors manipulation trajectories using latent representations from an action-conditioned world model. Foresight is trained using only final task-level success or failure labels. By leveraging predictive world-model embeddings, our method provides a unified framework for failure detection across different policies. We further use functional conformal prediction (FCP) to calibrate detection thresholds adaptively.

Self-Compacting Language Model Agents: 스스로 압축하는 언어모델 에이전트
Long agent traces composed of chains of thought and tool calls accumulate stale content that anchor subsequent generations, and eventually outgrow the context window. Existing scaffolds mitigate it with fixed-interval compaction triggered at a token threshold. Such triggers pay no heed to trajectory structure, risking discard of partial results mid-derivation or mid-search. We propose SelfCompact, a scaffold that allows the model itself to decide when and how to compact. Specifically, it pairs two inference-time elements: (i) a compaction tool the model invokes to summarize the accumulated context, and (ii) a lightweight rubric specifying when to fire (a sub-task has resolved, or the trajectory is converging) and when to suppress (mid-derivation, or when stuck). Both are needed. The tool alone is unevenly used across open-weight models, often invoked at unhelpful moments or not at all; the rubric alone cannot act. Together, they elicit effective adaptive compaction without any fine-tun
