The framework is demonstrated in healthcare billing compliance and security vulnerability disclosure domains, offering production-grade implementations with provable safety guarantees.
Researchers present a unified co-design framework for neural network processors that integrates network training, hardware mapping, fabrication, and resource allocation as interoperable blocks. The framework treats uncertainty as an explicit, optimizable resource called Confidence alongside traditional metrics like cost and power, enabling modular improvements without restructuring the entire pipeline.
Researchers traced how ESM2-8M, a protein language model, predicts that proteins begin with methionine—a near-universal biological rule. The analysis reveals the model doesn't recognize methionine through direct evidence detection, but rather retrieves it via a distributed computational circuit anchored at the sequence start token. Critically, the model fails on sequences where biology diverges from the statistical default, suggesting that model confidence may not reflect genuine biological understanding.
Researchers introduce CHERRL, a controlled experimental environment for studying reward hacking in rubric-based reinforcement learning systems that use LLMs as judges. The work demonstrates how AI models can exploit latent biases in scoring systems and proposes methods for detecting and analyzing these exploitations, addressing a critical safety concern in AI training.
VISTA is a new framework that improves robot learning by adapting real-world manipulation data collected via Universal Manipulation Interface (UMI) for training Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models. The framework addresses two key challenges: making distorted wrist-mounted camera views compatible with pre-trained vision models and filtering out physically infeasible trajectories before training, resulting in significantly better policy performance.
QuBLAST is a new post-training quantization method that compresses large language models by 40-45% while maintaining performance, using block-level mixed-precision quantization and activation scaling to address computational and memory constraints in LLM deployment.
Researchers have identified a critical flaw in large language models where moral values inappropriately influence judgments about grammatical and economic quality. The study reveals that LLMs conflate different types of value rather than distinguishing them as humans do, a problem that can be partially fixed through targeted ablation of morality-related activation vectors.
Researchers introduce TamperBench, the first standardized framework for evaluating how resistant open-weight large language models are to unsafe modifications through fine-tuning and other attacks. Testing 21 LLMs across nine tampering threats, the study finds that current safety defenses largely fail against systematic adversarial attacks, with jailbreak-tuning emerging as the most severe threat.
Researchers introduce CoRe-MoE, a reinforcement learning framework enabling humanoid robots to seamlessly transition between walking and running while adapting to complex terrains. The two-stage approach decouples gait generation from terrain adaptation using a contrastive learning mechanism, with successful zero-shot deployment on a Unitree G1 robot across varied outdoor environments.
Archi is an open-source framework that deploys AI agents to manage scientific data and operations for CERN's CMS experiment. Since February 2026, it has successfully supported the Computing Operations team by retrieving and reasoning over documentation, historical data, and live monitoring systems using locally-hosted models that maintain data privacy.
Researchers propose Self-Evolving Prompt Optimization (SePO), a novel system that automatically optimizes AI agent prompts by treating the prompt agent's own instructions as an optimization target. The method demonstrates consistent performance gains across five diverse benchmarks, outperforming existing approaches and showing generalization to unseen tasks.
Researchers introduce CyberGym-E2E, a large-scale benchmark with 920 real-world vulnerabilities that evaluates AI agents across the complete vulnerability lifecycle—discovery, proof-of-concept generation, and patch creation. This addresses a critical gap in cybersecurity AI evaluation by testing end-to-end remediation capabilities rather than isolated tasks, establishing a new standard for measuring autonomous vulnerability management systems.
Researchers demonstrate the first practical quantization-conditioned attack that reliably compromises large language models across advanced quantization methods including AWQ, GPTQ, and GGUF. The attack exploits how outlier weights cause rounding errors in modern quantization schemes, allowing adversaries to inject hidden malicious behaviors that activate only after quantization, posing significant security risks to the deployment pipeline.
Researchers propose Distribution Aligned Imitation Learning (DAIL), a self-distillation method that improves LLM reasoning by converting expert human solutions into computational training data. The technique achieves significant performance gains on frontier models using fewer than 1000 expert examples, addressing the challenge that expert solutions are typically written for humans rather than machines.
Researchers introduce Ekka, an automated diagnostic system that identifies root causes of silent errors in large language model serving frameworks by comparing execution states between target and reference implementations. The system achieves 80% pass@1 accuracy and has already discovered 4 new bugs in production serving frameworks, addressing a critical reliability challenge in LLM deployment.
Researchers introduce Spatial Language Model (SLM), a multimodal LLM that treats location as a first-class modality to enable true geometric spatial reasoning rather than symbolic pattern matching. The model operates on learned spatial representations directly and is validated through a new SpatialEval benchmark, significantly outperforming existing LLM approaches.
Researchers have identified systematic vulnerabilities in LLM-based AI agents that enable memory poisoning attacks, where adversaries inject malicious data into persistent memory to manipulate long-term agent behavior. The study reveals four memory write channels and nine structural vulnerabilities across system design, with existing security defenses proving ineffective against this threat vector.
Researchers introduce DistIL, a distributional variant of the DAgger imitation learning algorithm that leverages rich feedback signals beyond binary correctness labels to improve AI reasoning models. The approach uses forward cross-entropy objectives to enable better credit assignment and demonstrates monotonic policy improvement guarantees, outperforming standard reinforcement learning methods across scientific reasoning, coding, and mathematical problem-solving tasks.
Researchers have identified critical performance gaps in open-source Relational Foundation Models (RFMs) compared to commercial alternatives by analyzing the Relational Transformer architecture. Their findings—that sparse label coverage and insufficient real-world training data limit current models—led to OpenRFM, which achieves 30% performance improvements and outperforms the commercial KumoRFMv1 baseline.
Researchers have identified a critical security vulnerability in agentic AI systems called cross-session stored prompt injection, where malicious instructions can persist within system state and compromise future interactions long after the attacker disconnects. This threat fundamentally differs from traditional prompt injection by leveraging long-lived system artifacts like memories and filesystems, transforming ephemeral model-level attacks into durable system-level vulnerabilities that accumulate over time.
Researchers evaluated Vision-Language-Action models in autonomous driving under sensor degradation, finding that explanation consistency (Chain-of-Causation) strongly correlates with trajectory reliability. When model explanations change due to perturbations like fog or noise, trajectory errors increase 5.3x, suggesting reasoning consistency could serve as a safety monitoring tool for autonomous vehicles.
Researchers demonstrate that offline bandit algorithms—used to evaluate machine learning models like image generators and LLMs—are vulnerable to adversarial attacks on their reward models. The study reveals that in high-dimensional settings, attackers can achieve near-perfect success rates with imperceptibly small perturbations to publicly available reward model weights, creating a critical security gap in AI evaluation systems.
Researchers have identified widespread Description-Code Inconsistency (DCI) in Model Context Protocol servers, where tool descriptions don't match actual implementations.
