루브릭 기반 강화학습의 보상 해킹 재현·분석·탐지
Rubric-based reinforcement learning (RL) uses an LLM-as-a-Judge (LaaJ) to score model outputs according to rubrics as rewards. However, policy models may exploit latent biases in the judge, leading to reward hacking and ineffective or unsafe training outcomes. In real-world rubric-based RL, such hacking behaviors are often subtle and entangled with multiple judge biases, making them difficult to analyze, detect, and mitigate. In this paper, we introduce CHERRL, a controllable hacking environment for rubric-based RL. By injecting known biases into LaaJ, CHERRL enables stable reproduction of reward hacking, explicit observation of reward divergence, and precise identification of hacking onset. This provides a clean experimental testbed for studying the mechanisms and mitigations of reward hacking in rubric-based RL. To demonstrate its utility, we analyze different judge biases from the perspectives of discoverability and exploitability, and explore an agent-based system for automatically

멀티스텝 도구 사용 강화학습은 왜 무너지고 감독 신호는 어떻게 이를 해결하나
Tool use enables large language models (LLMs) to perform complex tasks, and recent agentic reinforcement learning (RL) methods show promise for enhancing model capabilities. However, RL alone often leads to instability or limited gains in tool-use tasks. In our experiments, some models exhibit catastrophic collapse, where performance abruptly drops and tool-invocation structures fail. The analysis reveals that these failures stem from unexpected probability spikes in specific control tokens, disrupting structured execution, yet the underlying tool-use capability remains intact, merely obscured by specific formats. To address this, we systematically investigate a diverse set of supervisory signals, including off-policy supervision, hint-based guidance, erroneous example supervision, and others, applied under both synchronous and interleaved training schemes. We find that interleaving supervised fine-tuning (SFT) with RL substantially improves stability, but exhibits degraded performance

포스트트레이닝이 놓친 공짜 점심: LLM 에이전트의 진전 우위
Process reward models enable fine-grained, step-level evaluation of LLMs, yet building them for agentic settings remains prohibitively difficult: long-horizon interactions, irreversible actions, and stochastic environment feedback make both human annotation and Monte Carlo estimation infeasible at scale. In this work, we show that reinforcement learning (RL) post-training already provides the ingredients for effective step-level scoring, eliminating the need for dedicated reward model training altogether. Concretely, we derive an implicit advantage under a general stochastic Markov decision process, which we term progress advantage -- log-probability ratio between the RL-trained policy and its reference policy exactly recovers the optimal advantage function. This formulation makes the resulting signal annotation-free, domain-agnostic, and available as a byproduct of the standard RL post-training pipeline. We validate the effectiveness of the progress advantage across three different ap

Fast LeWorldModel
Joint-Embedding Predictive Architectures (JEPAs), including recent LeWorldModel (LeWM), have become a promising foundation for reconstruction-free visual world models. For visual planning, however, LeWM evaluates candidate action sequences by repeatedly applying a local one-step latent transition model. This autoregressive rollout makes planning computationally expensive and exposes the predicted trajectory to accumulated latent errors as the horizon grows. We propose Fast LeWorldModel (Fast-LeWM), a fast latent world model that replaces repeated local rollout with action-prefix prediction. Given the current latent and a candidate action sequence, Fast-LeWM encodes its prefixes and predicts the future latents reached after executing those prefixes in parallel. By making action prefixes the basic prediction unit, Fast-LeWM directly models action effects accumulated to different extents over multiple horizons. This prefix-level supervision forces the model to learn how states continuousl

신뢰도 인식 도구 오케스트레이션으로 견고한 비디오 이해 구현
Video reasoning language models implicitly assume that every input frame is equally reliable. This leads to what we term the Blind Trust Problem: under realistic perturbations such as motion blur, glare, or occlusion, frontier video reasoning models can suffer 15-30%p accuracy drops on real-world embodied benchmarks, while remaining unaware that their visual evidence has been degraded. To address this challenge, we propose Robust-TO, an agentic video understanding framework that explicitly integrates per-frame trustworthiness into every stage of reasoning. Robust-TO organizes heterogeneous visual perception tools under a unified evidence interface. Each tool receives a sub-query derived from the original question and a set of trustworthy frames selected by the reliability-relevance score. It returns evidence in a shared format: a concrete prediction (e.g., a bounding box, motion trajectory, recognized text, or action label), temporal grounding, and a calibrated reliability score.

PluraMath: 고자원 언어를 넘어 수학적 추론 평가 확장
Mathematical reasoning has become a central task for evaluating and tuning reasoning Large Language Models (LLMs), yet existing benchmarks remain heavily biased toward high-resource languages, with English and Chinese dominating both pre-training corpora and evaluation suites. The recently released PolyMath (Wang et al., 2025) dataset represents a significant step forward, yet its coverage is still limited to 18 only high-resource languages. To address this gap, we introduce PluraMath, an extension of PolyMath to 18 additional {underrepresented languages spanning 6 language families -- ranging from mid-resource to extreme low-resource settings. We constructed the dataset through a human-curated pipeline, where native speakers thoroughly validated pre-computed translations. Using PluraMath, we then benchmark 27 reasoning LLMs across four model scales -- small, mid-size, large, and closed-source ensembles -- probing the multilingual mathematical reasoning capabilities of state-of-the-art

GBC: 멀티 에이전트 시스템 최적화를 위한 그래디언트 기반 연결
Multi-agent systems (MAS) built on large language models (LLMs) provide a promising framework for solving complex tasks through role specialization and structured interaction. However, their performance is often limited by miscoordination and, more fundamentally, the lack of fine-grained credit assignment across agents. Existing approaches typically rely on coarse-grained feedback, making it difficult to identify which agents or interaction steps are responsible for errors. We propose Gradient-Based Connections (GBC), an approach for fine-grained attribution and optimization of multi-agent systems. GBC models a MAS as a computational graph and introduces gradient-based connection weights to quantify the influence of each agent's output on downstream agents at the token level. By constructing an attribution graph and propagating task-specific loss signals backward, our method enables precise identification of error sources and targeted prompt optimization. We further develop AgentChord,

MemoBench: 동적으로 변화하는 환경에서의 월드 모델링 벤치마크
Video generation models aspire to simulate dynamic environments, and several benchmarks now evaluate memory consistency across frames. However, most assess consistency only while the target remains in view, and the few that force objects out of view evaluate static scenes where nothing changes during occlusion. To bridge this gap, we introduce MemoBench, a diagnostic benchmark built around the disappear-and-reappear paradigm in dynamically changing environments: a target object undergoes a physical process, disappears from view, and must be correctly recovered in its updated state upon reappearance. We curate 360 ground-truth clips spanning synthetic and real-world scenes, and design an evaluation suite combining automated metrics with VQA-based assessment across four diagnostic pillars. Evaluation of eight state-of-the-art models reveals key insights and open challenges regarding memory consistency under the disappear-and-reappear paradigm.

SynCity 3000: 장면 규모 3D Diffusion 부트스트래핑
We present SynCity 3000, a framework for generating 3D scenes that are globally coherent while enabling fine-grained layout control. Building on the ability of current image-to-3D generators to produce complex 3D assets from a single image, we extend this capability to the scale of entire scenes by adapting the generator to be applicable as a convolutional operator. We achieve this by fine-tuning the model on scene-like data generated by a new synthetic data engine, which we propose to address the scarcity of 3D scene data for training. The convolutional generator is then applied to a dimetric image of the entire scene, generated from the user prompt, resulting in 3D scenes of arbitrary size and complexity. Across diverse prompts and layouts, SynCity 3000 produces large, coherent, and detailed scenes, addressing the shortcomings of prior approaches to 3D scene generation.

Deform360: 변형체 월드 모델을 위한 대규모 멀티뷰 시각-촉각 데이터셋
Predicting object dynamics (i.e., world modeling) is a fundamental challenge for robotic manipulation, and modeling deformable objects presents a particularly difficult case due to their high-dimensional state spaces and complex material properties. While current world models approach this through two distinct paradigms: learning the dynamics over the 2D pixel space or more explicit 3D geometric space. A systematic understanding of their relative strengths and limitations remains elusive due to the lack of diverse, large-scale real-world data. To address this, we present Deform360, a large-scale visuotactile dataset featuring 198 daily-life objects, 1,980 interaction sequences, and over 215 hours of observations from 41 surround-view cameras and bimanual tactile grippers to capture both global motion and contact-induced local deformations. Leveraging a novel markerless visuotactile 3D tracking pipeline to extract dense geometry and motion, we systematically evaluate current state-of-th

모든 비주얼 토큰은 같은 가치일까? 객체 증거를 보존하는 토큰 병합 기반 비전-언어 검색
Multi-vector vision-language retrieval preserves fine-grained visual evidence through maximum-similarity late interaction, but dense image-side tokens make storage and scoring expensive. Existing token compression methods reduce this cost, yet they can remove or collapse object- and region-level evidence that future query tokens may need to select. We propose SaMer, an object-aware token merging framework that compresses image-side post-projector tokens into K representative centroids while preserving the original late-interaction interface. SaMer uses object annotations only during training as a merge prior to discourage cross-instance mixing, requires no ground-truth bounding boxes or detectors at inference time, and adapts only the shared projection layer with frozen vision and language backbones. With K=64, SaMer removes more than 93% of image-side tokens and reduces ColPali storage by 16.09times, while improving R@1 on Flickr30K and MSCOCO. These gains arise because object-aware m

PhyMRI-SR, 물리 인식 MRI 초해상도로 나아가다
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) super-resolution is vital for improving diagnostic accessibility, yet most methods treat it as a deterministic mapping from a fixed low-resolution input to a high-resolution target. This overlooks a key property of MRI acquisition physics: spatial resolution and signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) are inherently coupled, making any given low-resolution scan merely one of many possible realizations under varying acquisition trade-offs. We rethink MRI super-resolution as a physics-aware reconstruction problem, in which the goal is to identify the optimal resolution-SNR configuration and then super-resolve it to obtain high-quality MRI results. A key implication of this formulation is that MRI resolution becomes dynamic rather than fixed. To handle such resolution-heterogeneous inputs, we adapt 2D Gaussian Splatting (2D GS) to MRI by formulating reconstruction as a coordinate-based, resolution-agnostic rendering problem. To further enhance fidelity, we introduce t

로봇 조작을 위한 Vision-Language-Action 모델의 이중 잠재 메모리
Mainstream Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models predict actions primarily from the current observation under a Markovian assumption, thus struggling with long-horizon, temporally dependent tasks. Existing memory-augmented VLAs either expand the observation window or retrieve history from the memory bank as auxiliary policy-side context. However, they leave memory outside the native latent embedding space of VLA reasoning, preventing historical experience from being fluidly interleaved with multimodal reasoning and action formation. To this end, we introduce LaMem-VLA, a latent-memory-native framework that reconstructs historical experience into latent memory tokens and directly interweaves them with VLA reasoning. At its core, LaMem-VLA introduces four coordinated components: (i) a curator that organizes historical experience into two complementary short-term and long-term memory vaults; (ii) a seeker that queries both vaults using the multimodal cognition to retrieve context-relevant e

한 번 Distill하고 평생 적응한다: 지속적 테스트타임 적응을 위한 데이터셋 Distillation 탐구
Continual Test-Time Adaptation (CTTA) aims to maintain model performance under evolving target domains by adapting online without labeled data. However, practical deployments often cannot retain the source dataset due to privacy or licensing constraints, and purely source-free CTTA methods tend to become unstable under long-term distribution shift, suffering from compounding self-training errors and catastrophic forgetting. We introduce DO-ALL (Distill Once, Adapt Life-Long), a plug-and-play framework that revisits source information in a compact and privacy-conscious form via Dataset Distillation (DD). Before deployment, DO-ALL performs DD to produce a small set of synthetic distilled anchors that summarize the source distribution. During adaptation, each target sample is matched with its most semantically aligned anchor, which provides a stable reference for various CTTA via source replay, representation alignment, and manifold-smoothing regularization. DO-ALL can be seamlessly integ

CAVEWOMAN: 언어 입력·출력 압축 환경에서 LLM은 어떻게 동작하나
"Talk short. Drop grammar. Save token." This caveman style is widely promoted as a way to cut inference cost, but whether it actually saves anything depends on which channel (the user's prompt or the model's response) is being compressed. We present Cavewoman, a two-channel evaluation protocol that scores every generation on task accuracy, realized per-item cost, and reference-text agreement against the model's unconstrained reference. We evaluate eight models on five datasets at five reduction levels, with both channels measured on the same items. Output compression cuts realized cost on most API models (1.4-2.4x per model, up to 3x in the best case) and on all four open-weight models under public-tier pricing. Input compression has the opposite effect, a strict lose-lose: it raises net cost rather than lowering it (~1.15x on the five-benchmark mean, up to 1.8x on the worst dataset and 2.7x under stronger compression), because models compensate with longer responses even as accuracy c

Video-MME-Logical: 비디오 시간·논리 추론을 위한 통제형 진단 벤치마크
Recent interest in multimodal large language models (MLLMs) raises a central question: can they reason over dynamic visual evidence rather than merely recognize objects or events in individual frames? This ability, which we refer to as video temporal-logical reasoning, requires models to maintain, update, and compose evidence as visual states evolve across frames. Existing video benchmarks often conflate this capability with scene complexity, static recognition, or uncontrolled temporal variation. To isolate this capability, we introduce Video-MME-Logical, a controlled benchmark organized around five temporal-logical operations: state tracking, sequential counting, temporal ordering, dynamic spatiality, and structural composition. The benchmark contains 25 fine-grained task categories generated with controlled object states, transitions, temporal dependencies, and logical compositions. It enables difficulty-controlled final-answer evaluation by varying temporal horizon and reasoning co

PolicyTrim: Vision-Language-Action 모델의 내재 정책 효율 끌어올리기
Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models provide a unified paradigm for robotic manipulation, yet their real-world deployment is often bottlenecked by execution efficiency. While existing efforts predominantly focus on compute-centric efficiency to reduce per-step inference latency, the intrinsic policy efficiency of these models remains largely unexplored. Policy efficiency is fundamentally affected by two factors, namely the effective executable length of predicted action chunks and the total physical steps required to complete a task. These two factors jointly determine the total number of forward inference calls during execution. We observe that current VLA policies struggle with planning unreliability and action redundancy, suffering from severe prediction degradation at the tail of action chunks and tending to generate unnecessarily redundant physical steps. To address this, we propose PolicyTrim, a reinforcement learning-based post-training framework that extends the reliable action

SeKV: 장문맥 LLM 추론을 위한 해상도 적응형 KV 캐시와 계층적 의미 메모리
Large language models increasingly operate over long contexts, where the KV cache becomes a dominant memory bottleneck: its size grows linearly with sequence length and must be retained throughout decoding, making full GPU caching prohibitively expensive without compression. Existing KV cache compression methods struggle to balance efficiency with faithful context preservation. Token eviction discards information, while semantic grouping fixes compression decisions at prefill time; neither can recover token-level detail from a compressed span once it becomes relevant during generation. As a solution, we propose SeKV, a resolution-adaptive semantic KV cache that organizes context into entropy-guided semantic spans and stores them across a GPU-CPU memory hierarchy without discarding information. Each span keeps a lightweight summary vector on GPU for coarse routing and a low-rank SVD basis on CPU for on-demand token-level reconstruction. A trained zoom-in mechanism selectively expands qu

SWE-Together: 인터랙티브 사용자 세션에서 코딩 에이전트 평가
Most coding-agent benchmarks are static: an agent receives a complete task description up front and is judged only by its final code. Real coding assistance is interactive, with users clarifying goals, adding constraints, and correcting mistakes over multiple turns. We introduce SWE-Together, a multi-turn benchmark reconstructed from real user-agent coding sessions. To make real interactions verifiable, we curate 109 repository-level tasks from 11,260 recorded sessions, selecting sessions with recoverable repository states, clear user goals, and observable outcomes. To replay these interactions across agents, we build a reactive LLM-based user simulator that preserves the original users' intents and provides feedback when the coding agent's progress requires it. To evaluate agents as collaborators, we measure both final repository correctness and the number of corrective feedback turns required during the interaction. Experiments with frontier coding agents show that stronger agents ge

LLM 추론 흔적의 인지 에피소드로 인간 문항 난이도 예측 해석력 높인다
Predicting human item difficulty is central to educational assessment, where reliable estimates support fairness and effective test construction. Existing methods often depend on costly human calibration or item-level textual representations, providing limited evidence about the cognitive processes that make items difficult. We argue that difficulty should be viewed not only as a property of item text, but also as an observable consequence of the problem-solving burden an item induces. Large Reasoning Models (LRMs) offer scalable process evidence through reasoning traces, but such evidence must be structured to support interpretable modeling. To this end, we introduce Epi2Diff (Episode to Difficulty), a framework that maps LRM reasoning traces into cognitively grounded episode sequences. These episodes group trace segments into functional problem-solving states, enabling difficulty to be modeled through reasoning scale, effort allocation, and state transitions.

SafePyramid, 인컨텍스트 정책 가드레일링을 위한 계층형 벤치마크
In real-world applications, guardrails are often expected to identify unsafe user-model interactions according to application-specific safety policies, rather than relying on predefined risk taxonomies. In this work, we study this setting under the paradigm of in-context policy guardrailing, where guardrails predict safety violations based on policy specifications provided in context. To systematically evaluate this capability, we introduce SafePyramid, a safety benchmark comprising 1,000 multi-turn conversations across 10 domains and 3,000 corresponding application-specific policies, which together contain 61,699 distinct natural-language rules. SafePyramid organizes the evaluation into three difficulty levels: L0 evaluates individual-rule understanding, L1 evaluates reasoning over rule dependencies, and L2 evaluates adaptation of full novel policy frameworks defined in context. To ensure benchmark quality, we employ a rigorous multi-stage pipeline to construct and validate the benchm

FlowR2A, 멀티모달 주행 계획을 위한 보상-행동 분포 학습
Multimodal driving planning faces a long-standing tension between two paradigms: scoring-based methods benefit from dense reward supervision but are confined to a fixed action vocabulary, while anchor-based methods generate proposals dynamically yet suffer from sparse supervision constrained to a single ground-truth trajectory. In this work, we propose FlowR2A, which resolves this tension by reframing simulation-based rewards from discriminative targets into generative conditions. By learning the reward-conditioned action distribution from dense trajectory-reward pairs with a flow-matching decoder, FlowR2A unifies the dense supervision of scoring-based methods with the proposal generation of anchor-based methods in a single generative model, forcing the model to internalize the correlation between an action and its outcomes in safety, progress, comfort, and rule compliance. To balance hard safety constraints against soft progress objectives, we introduce fine-grained per-timestep rewar

Generative molecular design is shaped by simple proxy benchmarks for drug-like properties and models pretrained on large pharmaceutical datasets.

To overcome this limitation and drive discovery toward real, scientifically grounded targets, we introduce the Nanotechnology Molecular Optimization (NMO) Benchmark, which bridges machine learning (ML) and quantum materials science. NMO acts simultaneously as a rigorous testbed for the ML community and a discovery engine for nanotechnology research. The suite replaces proxy oracles with quantum simulations and introduces strict protocols that prioritize scientific utility over leaderboard-oriented overfitting. The physics-based NMO tasks impose hard structural constraints and rugged fitness landscapes, posing fundamentally new requirements on generative models.

Retrieval Augmented Search로 LLM 프로그램 최적화
Recent work has demonstrated the potential of large language models (LLMs) for program optimization, a key challenge in programming languages. We propose a blackbox adaptation method called Retrieval Augmented Search (RAS) that performs beam search over candidate optimizations; at each step, it retrieves in-context examples from a given training dataset of slow-fast program pairs to guide the LLM. Critically, we find that performing contextual retrieval based on an LLM-generated natural language description significantly outperforms retrieval based on the source code. We also propose AEGIS, a method for improving interpretability by decomposing training examples into ''atomic edits'' that are significantly more incremental in nature. We show that RAS performs up to 2.06times better than prior state-of-the-art blackbox adaptation strategies on optimizing C++ programs, and that AEGIS performs up to 1.37times better while making significantly smaller edits. We also show that using RAS imp

GUICrafter: 대규모 비주석 스크린샷을 활용한 약지도 GUI 에이전트
Data, as the fundamental substrate of modern intelligence, has greatly driven the development of current foundation models. Naturally, researchers aim to extend this paradigm to the domain of GUI agents, hoping to build strong GUI agents through a similar paradigm. However, GUI agent data cannot be directly harvested from the internet, making it costly and difficult to collect at scale. As a result, current GUI agents suffer from poor cross-device generalization and limited visual grounding ability for fine-grained GUI elements. As an attempt to address data challenge in GUI agents, we propose GUICrafter, a weakly-supervised GUI agent leveraging massive unannotated screenshots to substantially reduce the reliance on expensive human annotations. GUICrafter explores a curriculum learning framework for training GUI agents through two progressive stages. First, the model learns visual grounding from large-scale unannotated screenshots and webpages, leveraging the rich contextual signals in

실패 연쇄 끊는다: 의료 멀티모달 추론 위한 단계 인식 강화학습
Recent multimodal large language models have shown great promise in clinical image reasoning, but existing post-training pipelines remain predominantly outcome-centric, relying on final answer correctness or sequence-level preferences. This suffers from sparse credit assignment, making it difficult to optimize the reasoning process essential for clinical applications. Our analysis reveals that cascading errors from early-stage reasoning failures are a leading cause of incorrect predictions in medical visual question answering (VQA) benchmarks. Motivated by this, we propose Medical Reasoning-aware Policy Optimization (MRPO), an RL algorithm that incorporates step-wise process rewards. When the final answer is incorrect, MRPO assigns exponentially larger penalties to tokens in earlier invalid reasoning steps, breaking failure cascades without compromising successful paths. Across three multimodal LLM backbones, MRPO consistently outperforms standard GRPO and a recent RL baseline, and on

FlexiSLM: 동적·제어 가능한 프레임레이트 음성 언어 모델
Spoken language models (SLMs) extend LLMs to speech input and output. Existing SLMs represent speech at fixed frame rates (e.g., 25 or 12.5 Hz), ignoring the time-varying information density of speech and offering no flexibility to trade off quality for speed at inference time. Recent audio tokenizer research has proposed dynamic frame rate speech coding, which exploits this non-uniformity and enables two new capabilities: very low average frame rates and frame rate controllability. However, this technique has not yet been applied to SLMs. We introduce Flexible Spoken Language Model (FlexiSLM), the first SLM that supports dynamic and controllable frame rates on both speech input and output. Using dynamic frame rate representations, FlexiSLM outperforms fixed-frame-rate 7B models including Qwen2.5-Omni and Kimi-Audio at its high-quality operating points. We further verify that FlexiSLM can be accurately steered down to 4.0 Hz; at 6.25 Hz, it roughly halves inference time relative to 12.

ReFreeKV: 임계값 없는 KV 캐시 압축을 향해
To reduce memory consumption during LLM inference, a handful of methods have been proposed for KV cache pruning. While these techniques can accomplish lossless memory reduction on many datasets, they often hinge on an under-emphasized condition: an input/domain-specific threshold for KV cache budget needs to be pre-determined to achieve the optimal performance. However, such input-sensitive design may be considerably limited in real-world scenarios, as open-domain inputs span diverse domains, lengths and difficulty levels, without clear boundaries for threshold selection. As a result, the dependence of such input-sensitive threshold can be a fundamental limitation that causes large degradation on arbitrary inputs. In this work, we propose a new objective that lifts the threshold constraints for robust KV compression, advocating for "threshold-free" methods that adaptively adjust budget allocation while preserving full-cache performance. We then propose a novel method, ReFreeKV, serving

While large and diverse datasets have driven recent advances in large models, identifying the optimal data mixture for pre-training and post-training remains a significant open problem. We address this challenge with FASTMIX, a novel framework that automates data mixture discovery while training only a single proxy model. Instead of relying on predefined heuristics or resource-intensive simulations, FASTMIX jointly optimizes mixture coefficients and model parameters, substantially improving efficiency and scalability over prior approaches. At the core of FASTMIX is a reformulation of mixture selection as a bilevel optimization problem. Under this reformulation, we show that optimizing mixture ratios is mathematically equivalent to assigning per-source loss weights under uniform source sampling. This embeds the mixture coefficients directly into the differentiable iterative optimization objective, enabling efficient, gradient-based optimization of both mixture and model. To solve the op
