Chain-of-Experience for Continual LLM Improvement

Humans continuously learn from experience, whereas conventional large language model (LLM) evaluations ignore the models' ability to improve through inference-time interaction. In this paper, we study how LLMs learn from iterative experience at test time, a setting we refer to as Chain-of-Experience (CoE), where models accumulate...

TabNSM: Neural Sparse Mixer for Tabular Regression

Large-scale, high-dimensional tabular regression remains challenging: tree-based models are robust but lack end-to-end representation learning, while deep models enable flexible feature learning but often incur costly interaction modeling and sensitivity to noisy or redundant features. We propose TabNSM, a scalable regression...

Grounding Healthcare LLMs in a Causal Knowledge Graph: Framework, Metrics, and a Cardiovascular Pilot

Large language models (LLMs) are increasingly proposed for healthcare decision support, but their evaluations still reward single-answer accuracy rather than reasoning about interventions, mechanisms, harms, evidence, and uncertainty. We propose a reproducible, graph-centered evaluation framework for intervention-oriented LLM behavior...

Governing Delegation to Generative Artificial Intelligence: Human Direction, Work-Related Orientation, and Modes of Use

Delegating cognitive operations to generative artificial intelligence redistributes execution and raises a governance problem: where human direction of the task remains. We distinguish two routes. Specified delegation places that direction before execution, through instructions, constraints, or criteria that delimit the task....

An Omitted Mode Is a Rare Rule: The Sampling-Verification Danger Law in Continuous Code World Models

In the Code World Model paradigm an LLM synthesizes an executable world model that a classical planner searches, and the model is accepted when it reproduces sampled transitions. We ask what that acceptance certifies in continuous control. We define the pipeline's danger as an expected risk and isolate its exact factor: the...

Stability Control for Real World Testing in Autonomous Racing

Controlling an autonomous vehicle at the limits of handling is a challenging task. Due to external influences, such as road conditions or weather, a vehicle can easily become unstable. Since most control algorithms assume stable vehicle behavior, they might fail in these situations. Especially when operating expensive vehicles without...

From Corpora to Co-Evolving Capabilities: Capability-Centric Data Design for Generalist Image Generation

Large-scale image generation has benefited from advances in data scale, quality, rebalancing, and recaptioning, yet conventional pipelines typically optimize task-specific datasets in isolation. A central challenge is not only how to curate each task-specific corpus, but also how to organize heterogeneous supervision according to the...

Planning Against Learning in Rank-1 Games

Learning algorithms are often used to make decisions in repeated multi-agent environments. When another player understands how a learner adapts from past experience, that player can plan strategically across rounds to influence the learner's future behavior. Recent work shows that optimizing against Replicator Dynamics, the...

On the Fragility of Self-Improving Agents: Variance, Task Order, and Underspecification

Memory-based self-improving agents--those that learn from an online stream of tasks and improve over time by maintaining a textual memory bank--have shown great promise in recent literature. However, the reliability aspects of these methods have been critically overlooked. In this work, we conduct a comprehensive re-evaluation of two...

TokEval: A Tokenizer Evaluation Suite

Language model tokenizers are typically selected with minimal evaluation, despite the fact that their design choices directly impact model capabilities. This can be partly attributed to a limited understanding of which tokenizer properties affect which aspects of downstream performance. We introduce TokEval, a framework of tokenizer...

The concentration game: Bayesian updating, regret, and information

We give a two-player zero-sum repeated game between a learner and nature whose value identity generates Bayesian updating and an exact accounting of exponential-weights regret at once, and supplies the comparator-class variational form that a wide class of concentration phenomena share. The terminal payoff is the most a comparator can...

Delegation Asymmetry in Agentic Recommender Systems: Measuring Two-Sided Receptivity in Online Dating

Autonomous LLM agents that converse on a user's behalf are an emerging design pattern in matching platforms, yet their viability depends on a condition rarely examined: users must accept not only delegating conversation to an agent, but also receiving agent-mediated communication from others. We study this condition using two...

HLSR: Hybrid Live Forecast Selective Dynamic Vehicle Rerouting for Real-Time Congestion Avoidance

Urban traffic congestion reduces productivity and increases travel cost and emissions. Network-wide live travel-time shortest-path rerouting can be highly effective in simulation, but assumes that essentially every on-road vehicle is replanned every decision period. We propose HLSR, a selective hybrid live--forecast vehicle rerouting...

A contribution to the critique of blockchain censorship

We study the blockchain censorship attack introduced in [21], which shows that joining the attack is a dominant strategy. We show that, by introducing certain detectability threshold, joining the attack can lead to strictly less reward for whales, which are defined to be a small number of validators that hold significantly more voting...

Non-obvious Manipulability with Groups in Shapley-Scarf Housing Markets

In Shapley-Scarf housing markets, Ma (1994) shows that top trading cycles (TTC) is the unique mechanism satisfying individual rationality (IR), Pareto efficiency (PE), and strategy-proofness. We ask what other mechanisms become possible when strategy-proofness is replaced by a weaker condition called non-obvious manipulability (NOM),...
