SpatialAct: 3D 장면에서 VLM 에이전트의 공간 추론-행동 역량 분석

Humans can effortlessly perceive spatial layouts, form cognitive representations, reason about spatial relations, and translate such reasoning into actions in everyday 3D environments. Although recent vision-language models (VLMs) have shown promising performance on observation-conditioned spatial perception and reasoning tasks, it remains unclear whether they can build coherent spatial understanding, act upon it, and refine their actions through multi-turn feedback. To study this problem, we introduce SpatialAct, a simulator-grounded benchmark for probing action-conditioned spatial reasoning in 3D scenes. Starting from the most challenging setting, Multi-turn Interactive Refinement, we further design its decomposed counterpart, Single-step Error Detection and Fix, together with five fundamental spatial ability tasks to diagnose the underlying causes of model failures. Experiments reveal a clear reasoning-to-action gap: current VLMs can perform well on isolated spatial reasoning tasks,

덧셈의 형태: LLM 속 산술의 기하학적 구조

Large Language Models exhibit paradoxical fragility in fundamental arithmetic, implying a disconnect between internal computation and discrete output. By analyzing the residual stream geometry during multi-operand addition, we identify the Iso-Raw-Sum Trajectory (IRST), a geometric structure where representations are anchored by semantic digits and modulated by continuous carry fibers. We propose the Noisy Quantization Model to explain this geometry, framing arithmetic errors as Geometric Slippages caused by internal neural noise pushing a continuous, latent Carry Potential across quantization thresholds. This geometric framework further elucidates Probe Versatility, explaining how lightweight probes can disentangle coexisting latent signals (such as ground truth versus hallucination) from a single activation vector. Finally, we validate these insights through a geometric consistency check method that effectively detects and corrects these quantization failures during inference. Our co

도구가 실패할 때: LLM 에이전트의 동적 재계획·이상 복구 벤치마크

Existing benchmarks evaluate Tool-Integrated Reasoning (TIR) in LLMs on idealized ''happy paths'', largely overlooking real-world tool failures. We introduce ToolMaze, a benchmark for dynamic path discovery and error recovery in TIR agents. To separate systematic replanning from blind trial-and-error, ToolMaze adopts a two-dimensional design: DAG-based topological complexity and a 2 times 2 taxonomy of tool perturbations (explicit/implicit, transient/permanent). Evaluations show that perturbations degrade performance across nearly all models, with the sharpest drops under implicit semantic failures. Driven by systemic over-trust in corrupted outputs, Perturbation Recovery Rate (PRR) plummets by around 37\% in these scenarios, while complex topologies trap agents in futile trial-and-error loops. Crucially, agentic fault-tolerance improves with model scale 3.66times slower than basic task execution, highlighting dynamic replanning as a distinct bottleneck unaddressed by model scaling or

Imaginative Perception Tokens, 멀티모달 언어 모델의 공간 추론 강화

Vision language models (VLMs) excel at many tasks but still struggle with spatial reasoning when critical information is not directly observable. Many such problems require imaginative perception: inferring what would be seen from an unseen viewpoint, tracing paths through occluded spaces, or integrating partial observations into a coherent spatial representation. We introduce Imaginative Perception Tokens (IPT), intermediate perceptual representations that externalize what a VLM would perceive under alternative spatial configurations while remaining consistent with the observed input. To study this capability, we formulate three tasks, Perspective Taking (PET), Path Tracing (PT), and Multiview Counting (MVC), and construct datasets of approximately 20K examples with ground truth imaginations, answers, and evaluation benchmarks. Using the unified VLM BAGEL as the backbone, IPT supervision consistently improves spatial reasoning and often outperforms textual chain of thought training,

온폴리시 증류로 구현한 데이터 효율적 자기회귀-디퓨전 언어 모델

We study the transformation of autoregressive models (ARLMs) into diffusion language models (DLMs). Rather than pretraining from scratch, prior work replaces the causal attention in ARLMs with bidirectional attention and then trains the resulting model using a DLM objective. However, these approaches incur two distribution shifts. First, transitioning from a next-token prediction objective to a DLM objective can discard knowledge acquired by the ARLM during training. Second, standard DLMs suffer from a train-inference mismatch, as the training loss is defined on randomly masked sequences rather than the trajectories encountered at inference produced by confidence-based decoding. To address both challenges, we introduce an On-Policy Diffusion Language Model (OPDLM) in which On-Policy Distillation (OPD) is employed for ARLM-to-DLM transformation. Specifically, OPDLM is trained via self-OPD, where the student, an ARLM with bidirectional attention, generates its own trajectories, and the t

여론 시뮬레이션을 위한 매개변수 기반 사회적 정체성 주입과 다양화

Large language models (LLMs) have recently been adopted as synthetic agents for public opinion simulation, offering a promising alternative to costly and slow human surveys. Despite their scalability, current LLM-based simulation methods fail to capture social diversity, producing flattened inter-group differences and overly homogeneous responses across demographic groups. We identify this limitation as a Diversity Collapse phenomenon in LLM hidden representations, where distinct social identities become increasingly indistinguishable across layers. Motivated by this observation, we propose Parametric Social Identity Injection (PSII), a general framework that injects explicit, parametric representations of demographic attributes and value orientations directly into intermediate hidden states of LLMs. Unlike prompt-based persona conditioning, PSII enables fine-grained and controllable identity modulation at the representation level. Extensive experiments on the World Values Survey using

버블 깨기: 가중치 불일치를 제한한 비동기 파이프라인 병렬 학습

Pipeline parallelism is essential for training large neural networks, but existing schedules trade off throughput, memory, and optimization consistency. Synchronous pipelines preserve forward/backward weight consistency but suffer from bubbles; asynchronous pipelines remove bubbles but introduce weight-version mismatch, typically requiring weight stashing, prediction, or correction mechanisms. We introduce PACI (Pipeline Asynchronous training with Controlled Inconsistency), a bubble-free asynchronous pipeline method that bounds forward/backward version drift without weight stashing, prediction, additional parameter copies, or global synchronization. The key idea is to use local gradient accumulation as a version-control mechanism: by slowing parameter-version evolution relative to pipeline delay, PACI limits the number of optimizer updates crossed by any micro-batch while preserving steady-state utilization. In GPT-style language-model pretraining, PACI matches the stability and final

U-TTT: 테스트타임 트레이닝으로 일반화 가능한 PET 이미지 노이즈 제거

Existing deep learning models for Positron Emission Tomography (PET) image denoising often suffer from severe performance degradation under distribution shifts, fundamentally restricting their robust clinical deployment. This lack of generalization stems from the conventional paradigm of fixed-parameter models that cannot adapt to variations in test data (e.g., dose levels or scanner types) after training. To overcome this limitation and achieve robust generalization, we introduce U-TTT, a novel U-shaped model that integrates Test-Time Training (TTT) layers to dynamically adjust model parameters during inference through self-supervision, thereby adapting to the specific characteristics of each test instance. Furthermore, to comprehensively capture the complex degradations of 3D PET data, U-TTT features a dual-domain adaptation mechanism comprising a Spatial Test-Time Training (S-TTT) layer and a Frequency Test-Time Training (F-TTT) layer. The S-TTT layer captures and corrects spatial s

Multimodal retrieval relies heavily on single-vector retrievers, which compress rich, sequential token sequences into one single global representation. While efficient, they discard fine-grained, local evidence critical for dense retrieval tasks. Multi-vector approaches were introduced as a solution, but they strictly require training and many ignore the necessity of a globally summarizing representation. To address this, we introduce SMART, a framework that unlocks the latent multi-vector capabilities of standard single-vector models. We first demonstrate that standard contrastive training on the pooled embedding implicitly shapes the retrieval geometry of preceding hidden states via gradient flow. By applying direct late-interaction over these frozen hidden states during inference, SMART acts as a plug-and-play upgrade that consistently improves performance across diverse modalities, improving even the state-of-the-art models further on MMEB-V2. We also reveal SMART's superior perfor

Chains of thought (CoTs) have become central in interpreting and auditing behaviors of large language models. Yet growing evidence suggests that these traces often fail to faithfully represent the computations behind a model's predictions. Several faithfulness metrics have been proposed, but whether they indeed measure faithfulness remains unknown. Answering this requires ground-truth labels, which are hard to obtain since internal computations are not directly observable. Consequently, most works proposing metrics report only absolute scores or comparisons to prior metrics, and the few existing benchmarks rely on proxies like plausibility or importance, properties orthogonal to faithfulness that can mislead about whether a CoT can be trusted. We address this challenge by constructing tasks whose outputs reveal which intermediate computations must have produced them, and developing an automated labeling pipeline that yields ground-truth faithfulness labels at both the step and CoT leve

As interactive LLM-based applications are created and refined, model developers need to evaluate the quality of generated text along many possible axes. For simpler systems, human evaluation may be practical, but in complicated systems like conversational chatbots, the amount of generated text can overwhelm human annotation resources. Model developers have begun to rely heavily on auto-evaluation, where LLMs are also used to judge generation quality. However, existing LLM-as-a-judge benchmarks largely focus on simple Q\&A tasks that do not match the complexity of multi-turn conversations. We introduce RankJudge, a benchmark generator for evaluating LLM-as-a-judge on multi-turn conversations grounded in reference documents. RankJudge creates pairs of conversations where one conversation has a single flaw injected into one turn. This construction allows paired conversations to be labeled unambiguously as better or worse, and precisely isolates failure categories to individual turns, enab

We introduce ShapeCodeBench, a synthetic benchmark for perception-to-program reconstruction: given a rendered raster image, a model must emit an executable drawing program that a deterministic evaluator re-renders and compares with the target. The v1 DSL has four primitives on a 512 x 512 black-on-white canvas, but every instance is generated from a seeded RNG, so fresh held-out sets can be created to reduce exact-instance contamination. We release a frozen eval_v1 split with 150 samples across easy, medium, and hard tiers, scored by exact match, pixel accuracy, foreground IoU, parse success, and execution success. We evaluate an empty-program floor, a classical computer-vision heuristic, Claude Opus 4.7 at high and max effort, and GPT-5.5 at medium and extra_high reasoning effort. The heuristic is competitive on easy scenes but collapses when overlaps fuse components; the strongest multimodal configuration preserves much of the foreground structure but still misses exact match because

Vision-Language-Action (VLA) policies are commonly trained from dense robot demonstration trajectories, often collected through teleoperation, by sampling every recorded frame as if it provided equally useful supervision. We argue that this convention creates a temporal supervision imbalance: long low-change segments dominate the training stream, while manipulation-critical transitions such as alignment, contact, grasping, and release appear only sparsely. We introduce FrameSkip, a data-layer frame selection framework that scores trajectory frames using action variation, visual-action coherence, task-progress priors, and gripper-transition preservation, then remaps training samples toward high-importance frames under a target retention ratio. Because FrameSkip operates only in the dataloader, it leaves the VLA architecture, action head, training objective, and inference procedure unchanged. Across RoboCasa-GR1, SimplerEnv, and LIBERO, FrameSkip improves the success-retention trade-off

AI agents that interact with their environments through tools enable powerful applications, but in high-stakes business settings, unintended actions can cause unacceptable harm, such as privacy breaches and financial loss. Existing mitigations, such as training-based methods and neural guardrails, improve agent reliability but cannot provide guarantees. We study symbolic guardrails as a practical path toward strong safety and security guarantees for AI agents. Our three-part study includes a systematic review of 80 state-of-the-art agent safety and security benchmarks to identify the policies they evaluate, an analysis of which policy requirements can be guaranteed by symbolic guardrails, and an evaluation of how symbolic guardrails affect safety, security, and agent success on τ^2-Bench, CAR-bench, and MedAgentBench. We find that 85\% of benchmarks lack concrete policies, relying instead on underspecified high-level goals or common sense. Among the specified policies, 74\% of policy r

Text-to-image diffusion models achieve impressive visual fidelity, yet they remain unreliable in multi-object generation. Despite extensive empirical evidence of these failures, the underlying causes remain unclear. We begin by asking how much of this limitation arises from the data itself. To disentangle data effects, we consider two regimes across different dataset sizes: (1) concept generalization, where each individual concept is observed during training under potentially imbalanced data distributions, and (2) compositional generalization, where specific combinations of concepts are systematically held out. To study these regimes, we introduce mosaic (Multi-Object Spatial relations, AttrIbution, Counting), a controlled framework for dataset generation. By training diffusion models on mosaic, we find that scene complexity plays a dominant role rather than concept imbalance, and that counting is uniquely difficult to learn in low-data regimes. Moreover, compositional generalization c

Most existing medical dialogue systems operate in a single-turn question--answering paradigm or rely on template-based datasets, limiting conversational realism and multilingual applicability. We introduce IndicMedDialog, a parallel multi-turn medical dialogue dataset spanning English and nine Indic languages: Assamese, Bengali, Gujarati, Hindi, Marathi, Punjabi, Tamil, Telugu, and Urdu. The dataset extends MDDial with LLM-generated synthetic consultations, translated using TranslateGemma, verified by native speakers, and refined through a script-aware post-processing pipeline to correct phonetic, lexical, and character-spacing errors. Building on this dataset, we fine-tune IndicMedLM via parameter-efficient adaptation of a quantized small language model, incorporating optional patient pre-context to personalise multi-turn symptom elicitation. We evaluate against zero-shot multilingual baselines, conduct systematic error analysis across ten languages, and validate clinical plausibility

As large language model (LLM) agents evolve from isolated tool users into coordinated teams, reinforcement learning (RL) must optimize not only individual actions but also how work is spawned, delegated, communicated, aggregated, and stopped. This paper studies RL for LLM-based multi-agent systems through orchestration traces: temporal interaction graphs whose events include sub-agent spawning, delegation, communication, tool use, return, aggregation, and stopping decisions. Using this lens, we identify three technical axes. First, reward design spans eight families, including orchestration rewards for parallelism speedup, split correctness, and aggregation quality. Second, reward and credit signals attach to eight credit- or signal-bearing units from token to team; explicit counterfactual message-level credit remains especially sparse in our curated pool. Third, orchestration learning decomposes into five sub-decisions: when to spawn, whom to delegate to, how to communicate, how to

Scene graph representations enable structured visual understanding by modeling objects and their relationships, and have been widely used for multiview and 3D scene reasoning. Existing methods such as MSG learn scene graph embeddings in Euclidean space using contrastive learning and attention based association. However, Euclidean geometry does not explicitly capture hierarchical entailment relationships between places and objects, limiting the structural consistency of learned representations. To address this, we propose Hyperbolic Scene Graph (HSG), which learns scene graph embeddings in hyperbolic space where hierarchical relationships are naturally encoded through geometric distance. Our results show that HSG improves hierarchical structure quality while maintaining strong retrieval performance. The largest gains are observed in graph level metrics: HSG achieves a PP IoU of 33.17 and the highest Graph IoU of 33.51, outperforming the best AoMSG variant (25.37) by 8.14, highlighting t

Transformer-based table retrieval systems flatten structured tables into token sequences, making retrieval sensitive to the choice of serialization even when table semantics remain unchanged. We show that semantically equivalent serializations, such as csv, tsv, html, markdown, and ddl, can produce substantially different embeddings and retrieval results across multiple benchmarks and retriever families. To address this instability, we treat serialization embedding as noisy views of a shared semantic signal and use its centroid as a canonical target representation. We show that centroid averaging suppresses format-specific variation and can recover the semantic content common to different serializations when format-induced shifts differ across tables. Empirically, centroid representations outrank individual formats in aggregate pairwise comparisons across MPNet, BGE-M3, ReasonIR, and SPLADE. We further introduce a lightweight residual bottleneck adapter on top of a frozen encoder that

Face Image Quality Assessment (FIQA) aims to assess the recognition utility of face samples and is essential for reliable face recognition (FR) systems. Existing approaches require computationally expensive procedures such as multiple forward passes, backpropagation, or additional training, and only recent work has focused on the use of Vision Transformers. Recent studies highlighted that these architectures inherently function as saliency learners with attention patterns naturally encoding spatial importance. This work proposes ATTN-FIQA, a novel training-free approach that investigates whether pre-softmax attention scores from pre-trained Vision Transformer-based face recognition models can serve as quality indicators. We hypothesize that attention magnitudes intrinsically encode quality: high-quality images with discriminative facial features enable strong query-key alignments producing focused, high-magnitude attention patterns, while degraded images generate diffuse, low-magnitude

We measure how much one extra recurrence is worth to a looped (depth-recurrent) language model, in equivalent unique parameters. From an iso-depth sweep of 116 pretraining runs across recurrence counts r in {1, 2, 4, 8} spanning {sim}50times in training compute, we fit a joint scaling law L = E + A,(N_once + r^φ N_rec)^{-α} + B,D^{-β} and recover a new recurrence-equivalence exponent φ= 0.46. Intuitively, φ tells us whether looping a block r times is equivalent in validation loss to r unique blocks of a non-looped model (full equivalence, φ{=}1) or to a single block run repeatedly with no capacity gain (φ{=}0). Our φ= 0.46 sits in between, so each additional recurrence predictably increases validation loss at matched training compute. For example, at r{=}4 a 410M looped model performs on par with a 580M non-looped model, but incurs the training cost of a 1B non-looped one. We demonstrate the utility of φ as a measurement tool on two probes. Truncated backpropagation lowers φ to 0.38, i

Reinforcement Learning with Verifiable Reward (RLVR) has proven effective in improving Large Language Model's (LLM) reasoning ability. However, the learning dynamics of RLVR remain underexplored. In this paper, we reveal a counterintuitive phenomenon: among hard examples that the model initially struggles with, a substantial subset remains unlearnable even when correct rollouts are present. To understand the phenomenon, we first demonstrate that existing optimization and sampling techniques fail to resolve unlearnability. With cross-example gradient analysis, we show that unlearnable examples have fundamental representation issue, characterized by low gradient similarity with the rest of the examples and ungeneralizable reasoning patterns. We further show that representation flaws are difficult to mitigate in RL, as data augmentation does not improve gradient similarity. Our study provides the first systematic characterization of unlearnable data in RLVR training and reveals fundamenta

Evaluation harnesses are software systems that orchestrate model evaluation by managing model invocation, data loading, metric computation, and result reporting. Despite their critical role in machine learning infrastructure, their operational challenges and engineering concerns have received limited attention so far. We present an empirical study of 57 evaluation harnesses, deriving a five-stage harness model and classifying 16,560 issues by workflow stage and root cause. Most harness operational challenges concentrate in the Specification stage (41.4% of issues), where harnesses integrate external models, datasets, and scoring judges. The three most frequent root causes of operational challenges are unimplemented features (24.3%), documentation gaps (20.3%), and missing input validation (17.2%), which together account for 61.7% of classified issues, spanning both defects in existing functionality and capability gaps that block intended workflows. Root causes also vary by workflow sta

Communication enables coordination in multi-agent reinforcement learning (MARL), but many real-world applications, e.g., search-and-rescue with drone swarms, operate under severe bandwidth constraints. Many communication architectures still expose a coupled bottleneck in which a shared latent representation is used for both policy execution and inter-agent communication. Consequently, reducing message size directly limits the policy's latent space, often leading to significant performance degradation. We address this with two contributions. First, we introduce β, a normalised per-agent bandwidth budget that unifies sparsity, rounds, and message dimension into a single comparable constraint. Second, we provide SLIM, a minimal architecture that decouples the communication pathway from the policy's latent representation, allowing us to isolate the effect of bandwidth from the effect of policy capacity while benefiting from in-step communication. We evaluate our method on several partially

Large Language Models (LLMs) have significantly advanced the automation of software engineering tasks. One prominent example is code generation, where an LLM produces code in a specified programming language based on a natural language description. Most research in this area has focused on high-resource languages, such as Python or Java, which benefit from abundant training data. A smaller body of work has explored low-resource languages, which are underrepresented in training corpora. In contrast, no-resource languages for which LLMs have seen virtually no training data remain largely unstudied. These languages often emerge in industry, where organizations develop proprietary or domain-specific languages unsupported by commercial tools like GitHub Copilot. This results in the need for companies to deploy their own in-house code recommenders. To investigate possible solutions in this context, we build and release three code generation benchmarks for no-resource languages, based on two

Log anomaly detection is a critical task for system operations and security assurance. However, in networked systems at scale, log data are generated at massive scale while instance-level annotations are prohibitively expensive, posing great difficulties to fine-grained anomaly localization. To address this challenge, we propose LogMILP (Log anomaly localization based on Multi-Instance Learning enhanced by prototypes and Perturbation), a weakly supervised framework that enables both bag-level anomaly detection and instance-level anomaly localization using only bag-level labels. Our method guides the model to pinpoint the critical log entries using prototype-guided structural modeling with counterfactual perturbation consistency regularization, thereby improving localization reliability and interpretability under coarse-grained supervision. Experimental results on three public datasets demonstrate that LogMILP achieves competitive detection performance while yielding significantly more

Federated learning (FL) is a distributed machine learning method where multiple devices collaboratively train a model under the management of a central server without sharing underlying data. One of the key challenges of FL is the communication bottleneck caused by variations in connection speed and bandwidth across devices. Therefore, it is essential to reduce the size of transmitted data during training. Additionally, there is a potential risk of exposing sensitive information through the model or gradient analysis during training. To address both privacy and communication efficiency, we combine differential privacy (DP) and adaptive quantization methods. We use Laplacian-based DP to preserve privacy, which is relatively underexplored in FL and offers tighter privacy guarantees than Gaussian-based DP. We propose a simple and efficient global bit-length scheduler using round-based cosine annealing, along with a client-based scheduler that dynamically adapts based on client contributio

Large language models (LLMs) are routinely prompted to take on social roles ranging from individuals to institutions, yet it remains unclear whether their internal representations encode the granularity of such roles, from micro-level individual experience to macro-level organizational, institutional, or national reasoning. We show that they do. We define a contrast-based Granularity Axis as the difference between mean macro- and micro-role hidden states. In Qwen3-8B, this axis aligns with the principal axis (PC1) of the role representation space at cosine 0.972 and accounts for 52.6% of its variance, indicating that granularity is the dominant geometric axis organizing prompted social roles. We construct 75 social roles across five granularity levels and collect 91,200 role-conditioned responses over shared questions and prompt variants, then extract role-level hidden states and project them onto the axis. Role projections increase monotonically across all five levels, remain stable a

Large language models (LLMs) have achieved remarkable progress in mathematical reasoning, but this ability is not equally accessible across languages. Especially low-resource languages exhibit much lower reasoning performance. To address this, we propose Crosslingual On-Policy Self-Distillation (COPSD), which transfers a model's own high-resource reasoning behavior to low-resource languages. COPSD uses the same model as student and teacher: the student sees only the low-resource problem, while the teacher receives privileged crosslingual context, including the problem translation and reference solution in English. Training minimizes full-distribution token-level divergence on the student's own rollouts, providing dense supervision while avoiding the sparsity and instability of outcome-only reinforcement learning (RL). Experiments on 17 low-resource African languages show that COPSD consistently improves low-resource mathematical reasoning across model sizes and substantially outperform

The transition from stateless language model inference to persistent, multi session autonomous agents has revealed memory to be a primary architectural bottleneck in the deployment of production grade agentic systems. Existing methodologies largely depend on hybrid semantic graph architectures, which impose substantial computational overhead during both ingestion and retrieval. These systems typically require large language model mediated entity extraction, explicit graph schema maintenance, and multi query retrieval pipelines. This paper introduces Memanto, a universal memory layer for agentic artificial intelligence that challenges the prevailing assumption that knowledge graph complexity is necessary to achieve high fidelity agent memory. Memanto integrates a typed semantic memory schema comprising thirteen predefined memory categories, an automated conflict resolution mechanism, and temporal versioning. These components are enabled by Moorcheh's Information Theoretic Search engine,
