arXiv:2506.06739v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Inductive logic programming (ILP) is a form of logical machine learning. The goal is to search a hypothesis space for a hypothesis that generalises training examples and background knowledge. We introduce an approach that ‘shrinks’ the hypothesis space before an ILP system searches it. Our approach uses background knowledge to […]
Large Language Models as Optimization Controllers: Adaptive Continuation for SIMP Topology Optimization
arXiv:2603.25099v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We present a framework in which a large language model (LLM) acts as an online adaptive controller for SIMP topology optimization, replacing conventional fixed-schedule continuation with real-time, state-conditioned parameter decisions. At every $k$-th iteration, the LLM receives a structured observation$-$current compliance, grayness index, stagnation counter, checkerboard measure, volume fraction, and […]
RIDE: Retinex-Informed Decoupling for Exposing Concealed Objects
arXiv:2605.15450v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Concealed Object Segmentation (COS) encompasses a family of dense-prediction tasks, including camouflaged object detection, polyp segmentation, transparent object detection, and industrial defect inspection, where targets are visually entangled with their surroundings through different physical mechanisms. Existing methods either operate directly on RGB images or employ emphheterogeneous decompositions (eg, Fourier, wavelet) […]
Who Owns This Agent? Tracing AI Agents Back to Their Owners
arXiv:2605.16035v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: AI agents are increasingly deployed to act autonomously in the world, yet there is still no reliable way to trace a harmful agent back to the account that deployed it. This creates the same accountability gap across both ends of the intent spectrum: benign operators may deploy misconfigured or overbroad […]
Zero-Shot Goal Recognition with Large Language Models
arXiv:2605.15333v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language models have recently reached near-parity with classical planners on well-known planning domains, yet this competence relies on world-knowledge exploitation rather than genuine symbolic reasoning. Goal recognition is a complementary abductive task structurally better suited to LLM strengths: it consists of evaluating consistency with world knowledge rather than generating […]
Agentic Recommender System with Hierarchical Belief-State Memory
arXiv:2605.14401v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Memory-augmented LLM agents have advanced personalized recommendation, yet existing approaches universally adopt flat memory representations that conflate ephemeral signals with stable preferences, and none provides a complete lifecycle governing how memory should evolve. We propose MARS (Memory-Augmented Agentic Recommender System), a framework that treats recommendation as a partially observable problem […]
Retrieval-Augmented Large Language Models for Schema-Constrained Clinical Information Extraction
arXiv:2605.15467v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Conversational nurse-patient transcripts contain actionable observations, but converting these transcripts into structured representations at scale remains challenging. Documentation burden is substantial, with prior studies showing clinicians spend large portions of their workday on documentation and related desk work rather than direct patient care. MEDIQA-SYNUR focuses on observation extraction from conversational […]
RecMem: Recurrence-based Memory Consolidation for Efficient and Effective Long-Running LLM Agents
arXiv:2605.16045v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Memory systems often organize user-agent interactions as retrievable external memory and are crucial for long-running agents by overcoming the limited context windows of LLMs. However, existing memory systems invoke LLMs to process every incoming interaction for memory extraction, and such an eager memory consolidation scheme leads to substantial token consumption. […]
The Informational Cost of Agency: A Bounded Measure of Interaction Efficiency for Deployed Reinforcement Learning
arXiv:2603.01283v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Deployed reinforcement learning systems lack a principled runtime reliability theory. We close this gap by introducing Bipredictability, P, a closed form information theoretic metric that quantifies how efficiently a closed loop interaction between agent and environment converts uncertainty into shared predictability. P admits a provable classical bound P equal, smaller […]
Learning with Conflicts of Interest
arXiv:2605.15504v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Financial, social, and political factors often prevent the interests of the owners of ML systems and services and their users from being perfectly aligned. ML systems often produce biased information that can influence users to make decisions that are not in their best interest. Current solution approaches require ML systems […]
Do Coding Agents Understand Least-Privilege Authorization?
arXiv:2605.14859v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: As coding agents gain access to shells, repositories, and user files, least-privilege authorization becomes a prerequisite for safe deployment: an agent should receive enough authority to complete the task, without unnecessary authority that exposes sensitive surfaces. To study whether current models can infer this boundary themselves, we first introduce permission-boundary […]
Belief Engine: Configurable and Inspectable Stance Dynamics in Multi-Agent LLM Deliberation
arXiv:2605.15343v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: LLM-based agents are increasingly used to simulate deliberative interactions such as negotiation, conflict resolution, and multi-turn opinion exchange. Yet generated transcripts often do not reveal why an agent’s stance changes: movement may reflect evidence uptake, anchoring, role drift, echoing, or changed prompt and retrieval context. We introduce the Belief Engine […]
