arXiv:2604.00556v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Housing selection is a high-stakes and largely irreversible decision problem. We study housing consultation as a decision-support interface for housing selection. Existing housing platforms and many LLM-based assistants often reduce this process to ranking or recommendation, resulting in opaque reasoning, brittle multi-constraint handling, and limited guarantees on factuality. We present […]
Neural Conditional Transport Maps
arXiv:2505.15808v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We present a neural framework for learning conditional optimal transport (OT) maps between probability distributions. Our approach introduces a conditioning mechanism capable of processing both categorical and continuous conditioning variables simultaneously. At the core of our method lies a hypernetwork that generates transport layer parameters based on these inputs, creating […]
LinearARD: Linear-Memory Attention Distillation for RoPE Restoration
arXiv:2604.00004v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: The extension of context windows in Large Language Models is typically facilitated by scaling positional encodings followed by lightweight Continual Pre-Training (CPT). While effective for processing long sequences, this paradigm often disrupts original model capabilities, leading to performance degradation on standard short-text benchmarks. We propose LinearARD, a self-distillation method that […]
Detecting Multi-Agent Collusion Through Multi-Agent Interpretability
arXiv:2604.01151v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: As LLM agents are increasingly deployed in multi-agent systems, they introduce risks of covert coordination that may evade standard forms of human oversight. While linear probes on model activations have shown promise for detecting deception in single-agent settings, collusion is inherently a multi-agent phenomenon, and the use of internal representations […]
Agentic AI — Physicist Collaboration in Experimental Particle Physics: A Proof-of-Concept Measurement with LEP Open Data
arXiv:2603.05735v2 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We present an AI agentic measurement of the thrust distribution in $e^+e^-$ collisions at $sqrts=91.2$~GeV using archived ALEPH data. The analysis and all note writing is carried out entirely by AI agents (OpenAI Codex and Anthropic Claude) under expert physicist direction. A fully corrected spectrum is obtained via Iterative Bayesian […]
Preference Guided Iterated Pareto Referent Optimisation for Accessible Route Planning
arXiv:2604.00795v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We propose the Preference Guided Iterated Pareto Referent Optimisation (PG-IPRO) for urban route planning for people with different accessibility requirements and preferences. With this algorithm the user can interact with the system by giving feedback on a route, i.e., the user can say which objective should be further minimized, or […]
Experience as a Compass: Multi-agent RAG with Evolving Orchestration and Agent Prompts
arXiv:2604.00901v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Multi-agent Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG), wherein each agent takes on a specific role, supports hard queries that require multiple steps and sources, or complex reasoning. Existing approaches, however, rely on static agent behaviors and fixed orchestration strategies, leading to brittle performance on diverse, multi-hop tasks. We identify two key limitations: the […]
Does Unification Come at a Cost? Uni-SafeBench: A Safety Benchmark for Unified Multimodal Large Models
arXiv:2604.00547v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Unified Multimodal Large Models (UMLMs) integrate understanding and generation capabilities within a single architecture. While this architectural unification, driven by the deep fusion of multimodal features, enhances model performance, it also introduces important yet underexplored safety challenges. Existing safety benchmarks predominantly focus on isolated understanding or generation tasks, failing to […]
The fitness landscape of overlapping genes
arXiv:2604.00602v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Natural genomes sometimes encode two different proteins in staggered reading frames of the same DNA sequence. Despite the prevalence of these ‘overlapping genes’ across the tree of life, it remains unknown whether arbitrary protein pairs can overlap, to what extent such overlaps are feasible, or what design principles govern them. […]
Can LLMs Perceive Time? An Empirical Investigation
arXiv:2604.00010v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large language models cannot estimate how long their own tasks take. We investigate this limitation through four experiments across 68 tasks and four model families. Pre-task estimates overshoot actual duration by 4–7$times$ ($p < 0.001$), with models predicting human-scale minutes for tasks completing in seconds. Relative ordering fares no better: […]
Are they human? Detecting large language models by probing human memory constraints
arXiv:2604.00016v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: The validity of online behavioral research relies on study participants being human rather than machine. In the past, it was possible to detect machines by posing simple challenges that were easily solved by humans but not by machines. General-purpose agents based on large language models (LLMs) can now solve many […]
Ontology-Constrained Neural Reasoning in Enterprise Agentic Systems: A Neurosymbolic Architecture for Domain-Grounded AI Agents
arXiv:2604.00555v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Enterprise adoption of Large Language Models (LLMs) is constrained by hallucination, domain drift, and the inability to enforce regulatory compliance at the reasoning level. We present a neurosymbolic architecture implemented within the Foundation AgenticOS (FAOS) platform that addresses these limitations through ontology-constrained neural reasoning. Our approach introduces a three-layer ontological […]
