AI agents are rapidly being deployed across diverse industries, but can they adhere to deployment policies under attacks? We organized a one-month red teaming challenge---the largest of its kind to date---involving expert red teamers attempting to elicit policy violations from AI agents powered by $22$ frontier LLMs. Our challenge collected $1.8$ million prompt injection attacks, resulting in over $60,000$ documented successful policy violations, revealing critical vulnerabilities. Utilizing this extensive data, we construct a challenging AI agent red teaming benchmark, currently achieving near $100\%$ attack success rates across all tested agents and associated policies. Our further analysis reveals high transferability and universality of successful attacks, underscoring the scale and criticality of existing AI agent vulnerabilities. We also observe minimal correlation between agent robustness and factors such as model capability, size, or inference compute budget, highlighting the necessity of substantial improvements in defense. We hope our benchmark and insights drive further research toward more secure and reliable AI agents.

The advent of Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) has expanded AI capabilities to visual modalities, yet existing evaluation benchmarks remain limited to single-video understanding, overlooking the critical need for multi-video understanding in real-world scenarios (e.g., sports analytics and autonomous driving). To address this significant gap, we introduce **MVU-Eval**, the first comprehensive benchmark for evaluating **M**ulti-**V**ideo **U**nderstanding for MLLMs. Specifically, our MVU-Eval mainly assesses eight core competencies through 1,824 meticulously curated question-answer pairs spanning 4,959 videos from diverse domains, addressing both fundamental perception tasks and high-order reasoning tasks. These capabilities are rigorously aligned with real-world applications such as multi-sensor synthesis in autonomous systems and cross-angle sports analytics. Through extensive evaluation of state-of-the-art open-source and closed-source models, we reveal significant performance discrepancies and limitations in current MLLMs' ability to perform understanding across multiple videos.The benchmark will be made publicly available to foster future research.

Variant and gene interpretation are fundamental to personalized medicine and translational biomedicine. However, traditional approaches are manual and labor-intensive. Generative language models (LMs) can facilitate this process, accelerating the translation of fundamental research into clinically-actionable insights. While existing benchmarks have attempted to quantify the capabilities of LMs for interpreting scientific data, these studies focus on narrow tasks that do not translate to real-world research. To meet these challenges, we introduce CGBench, a robust benchmark that tests reasoning capabilities of LMs on scientific publications. CGBench is built from ClinGen, a resource of expert-curated literature interpretations in clinical genetics. CGBench measures the ability to 1) extract relevant experimental results following precise protocols and guidelines, 2) judge the strength of evidence, and 3) categorize and describe the relevant outcome of experiments. We test 8 different LMs and find that while models show promise, substantial gaps exist in literature interpretation, especially on fine-grained instructions. Reasoning models excel in fine-grained tasks but non-reasoning models are better at high-level interpretations. Finally, we measure LM explanations against human explanations with an LM judge approach, revealing that models often hallucinate or misinterpret results even when correctly classifying evidence. CGBench reveals strengths and weaknesses of LMs for precise interpretation of scientific publications, opening avenues for future research in AI for clinical genetics and science more broadly.

Compiler optimization is essential for improving program performance, yet modern compilers still depend on manually crafted transformation rules over intermediate representations (IRs). As compilers grow in complexity, maintaining these rule-based optimizations becomes increasingly labor-intensive and difficult to scale. Recent advances in large language models (LLMs) offer a promising alternative, but their effectiveness in compiler optimization remains limited—primarily due to the lack of IR-oriented datasets that expose models to diverse transformation samples in real-world scenarios (*optimization-sensitive samples*), hindering LLMs from learning rich and generalizable optimization strategies.In this paper, we introduce IR-OptSet, the first public optimization-sensitive dataset for advancing LLM-based IR optimizers. It comprises 170K LLVM IR samples from open-source repositories across 8 representative optimization domains. IR-OptSet defines two core tasks: Code Analysis and Optimized Code Generation, and provides tools for correctness verification, performance evaluation, and dataset expansion. In our experiments, fine-tuning three representative LLMs on IR-OptSet leads to significant accuracy improvements across both tasks. Moreover, the LLM fine-tuned with IR-OptSet *outperforms traditional compiler with the -O3 option* in 64 test cases in terms of performance. Further analysis reveals that IR-OptSet provides greater transformation diversity and representativeness than three widely used IR-oriented datasets, highlighting its potential to drive model-based IR optimization. IR-OptSet is publicly available at [https://huggingface.co/datasets/YangziResearch/IR-OptSet](https://huggingface.co/datasets/YangziResearch/IR-OptSet).

Recent reports claim that large language models (LLMs) now outperform elite humans in competitive programming. Drawing on knowledge from a group of medalists in international algorithmic contests, we revisit this claim, examining how LLMs differ from human experts and where limitations still remain. We introduce LiveCodeBench Pro, a benchmark composed of problems from Codeforces, ICPC, and IOI that are continuously updated to reduce the likelihood of data contamination. A team of Olympiad medalists annotates every problem for algorithmic categories and conducts a line-by-line analysis of failed model-generated submissions. Using this new data and benchmark, we find that frontier models still have significant limitations: without external tools, the best model achieves only 53\% pass@1 on medium-difficulty problems and 0\% on hard problems, domains where expert humans still excel. We also find that LLMs succeed at implementation-heavy problems but struggle with nuanced algorithmic reasoning and complex case analysis, often generating confidently incorrect justifications. High performance appears largely driven by implementation precision and tool augmentation, not superior reasoning. LiveCodeBench Pro thus highlights the significant gap to human grandmaster levels, while offering fine-grained diagnostics to steer future improvements in code-centric LLM reasoning.

The integration of machine learning (ML) into the physical sciences is reshaping computational paradigms, offering the potential to accelerate demanding simulations such as computational fluid dynamics (CFD). Yet, persistent challenges in accuracy, generalization, and physical consistency hinder the practical deployment of ML models in scientific domains. To address these limitations and systematically benchmark progress, we organized the ML4CFD competition, centered on surrogate modeling for aerodynamic simulations over two-dimensional airfoils. The competition attracted over 240 teams, who were provided with a curated dataset generated via OpenFOAM and evaluated through a multi-criteria framework encompassing predictive accuracy, physical fidelity, computational efficiency, and out-of-distribution generalization. This retrospective analysis reviews the competition outcomes, highlighting several approaches that outperformed baselines under our global evaluation score. Notably, the top entry exceeded the performance of the original OpenFOAM solver on aggregate metrics, illustrating the promise of ML based surrogates to outperform traditional solvers under tailored criteria. However, this does not imply that the winning solution could replace the OpenFOAM solver or that it was overall superior, even for this specific task. Drawing from these results, we analyze the key design principles of top submissions, assess the robustness of our evaluation framework, and offer guidance for future scientific ML challenges.

Intracortical brain-machine interfaces (iBMIs) have enabled movement and speech in people living with paralysis by using neural data to decode behaviors in real-time. However, intracortical neural recordings exhibit significant instabilities over time, which poses problems for iBMIs, neuroscience, and machine learning. For iBMIs, neural instabilities require frequent decoder recalibration to maintain high performance, a critical bottleneck for real-world translation. Several approaches have been developed to address this issue, and the field has recognized the need for standardized datasets on which to compare them, but no standard dataset exists for evaluation over year-long timescales. In neuroscience, a growing body of research attempts to elucidate the latent computations performed by populations of neurons. Nonstationarity in neural recordings imposes significant challenges to the design of these studies, so a dataset containing recordings over large time spans would improve methods to account for instabilities. In machine learning, continuous domain adaptation of temporal data is an area of active research, and a dataset containing shift distributions on long time scales would be beneficial to researchers. To address these gaps, we present the LINK Dataset (Long-term Intracortical Neural activity and Kinematics), which contains intracortical spiking activity and kinematic data from 312 sessions of a non-human primate performing a dexterous, 2 degree-of-freedom finger movement task, spanning 1,242 days. We also present longitudinal analyses of the dataset’s neural spiking activity and its relationship to kinematics, as well as overall decoding performance using linear and neural network models. The LINK dataset (https://dandiarchive.org/dandiset/001201) and code (https://github.com/chesteklab/LINK_dataset) are freely available to the public.

Open-world perception aims to develop a model adaptable to novel domains and various sensor configurations and can understand uncommon objects and corner cases. However, current research lacks sufficiently comprehensive open-world 3D perception benchmarks and robust generalizable methodologies. This paper introduces OpenAD, the first real open-world autonomous driving benchmark for 3D object detection. OpenAD is built upon a corner case discovery and annotation pipeline that integrates with a multimodal large language model (MLLM). The proposed pipeline annotates corner case objects in a unified format for five autonomous driving perception datasets with 2000 scenarios. In addition, we devise evaluation methodologies and evaluate various open-world and specialized 2D and 3D models. Moreover, we propose a vision-centric 3D open-world object detection baseline and further introduce an ensemble method by fusing general and specialized models to address the issue of lower precision in existing open-world methods for the OpenAD benchmark. We host an online challenge on EvalAI. Data, toolkit codes, and evaluation codes are available at https://github.com/VDIGPKU/OpenAD.

Spiking Transformers have recently emerged as promising architectures for combining the efficiency of spiking neural networks with the representational power of self-attention. However, the lack of standardized implementations, evaluation pipelines, and consistent design choices has hindered fair comparison and principled analysis. In this paper, we introduce \textbf{STEP}, a unified benchmark framework for Spiking Transformers that supports a wide range of tasks, including classification, segmentation, and detection across static, event-based, and sequential datasets. STEP provides modular support for diverse components such as spiking neurons, input encodings, surrogate gradients, and multiple backends (e.g., SpikingJelly, BrainCog). Using STEP, we reproduce and evaluate several representative models, and conduct systematic ablation studies on attention design, neuron types, encoding schemes, and temporal modeling capabilities. We also propose a unified analytical model for energy estimation, accounting for spike sparsity, bitwidth, and memory access, and show that quantized ANNs may offer comparable or better energy efficiency. Our results suggest that current Spiking Transformers rely heavily on convolutional frontends and lack strong temporal modeling, underscoring the need for spike-native architectural innovations.

Computer Vision · 3D Rendering & Reconstruction

Geometric models like DUSt3R have shown great advances in understanding the geometry of a scene from pairs of photos. However, they fail when the inputs are from vastly different viewpoints (e.g., aerial vs.\ ground) or modalities (e.g., photos vs.\ abstract drawings) compared to what was observed during training. This paper addresses a challenging version of this problem: predicting correspondences between ground-level photos and floor plans. Current datasets for joint photo--floor plan reasoning are limited, either lacking in varying modalities (VIGOR) or lacking in correspondences (WAFFLE). To address these limitations, we introduce a new dataset, C3, created by first reconstructing a number of scenes in 3D from Internet photo collections via structure-from-motion, then manually registering the reconstructions to floor plans gathered from the Internet, from which we can derive correspondence between images and floor plans. C3 contains 90K paired floor plans and photos across 597 scenes with 153M pixel-level correspondences and 85K camera poses. We find that state-of-the-art correspondence models struggle on this task. By training on our new data, we can improve on the best performing method by 34\% in RMSE. We also identify open challenges in cross-modal geometric reasoning that our dataset aims to help address.

"Machine unlearning" is a popular proposed solution for mitigating the existence of content in an AI model that is problematic for legal or moral reasons, including privacy, copyright, safety, and more. For example, unlearning is often invoked as a solution for removing the effects of specific information from a generative-AI model's parameters, e.g., a particular individual's personal data or the inclusion of copyrighted content in the model's training data. Unlearning is also proposed as a way to prevent a model from generating targeted types of information in its outputs, e.g., generations that closely resemble a particular individual's data or reflect the concept of "Spiderman." Both of these goals--the targeted removal of information from a model and the targeted suppression of information from a model's outputs--present various technical and substantive challenges. We provide a framework for ML researchers and policymakers to think rigorously about these challenges, identifying several mismatches between the goals of unlearning and feasible implementations. These mismatches explain why unlearning is not a general-purpose solution for circumscribing generative-AI model behavior in service of broader positive impact.

Cosmological simulations provide a wealth of data in the form of point clouds and directed trees. A crucial goal is to extract insights from this data that shed light on the nature and composition of the Universe. In this paper we introduce CosmoBench, a benchmark dataset curated from state-of-the-art cosmological simulations whose runs required more than 41 million core-hours and generated over two petabytes of data. CosmoBench is the largest dataset of its kind: it contains 34 thousand point clouds from simulations of dark matter halos and galaxies at three different length scales, as well as 25 thousand directed trees that record the formation history of halos on two different time scales. The data in CosmoBench can be used for multiple tasks---to predict cosmological parameters from point clouds and merger trees, to predict the velocities of individual halos and galaxies from their collective positions, and to reconstruct merger trees on finer time scales from those on coarser time scales. We provide multiple baselines on these tasks, some based on established approaches from cosmological modeling and others rooted in machine learning. For the latter, we study different approaches---from simple linear models that are minimally constrained by symmetries to much larger and more computationally-demanding models in deep learning, such as graph neural networks. We find that least-squares fits with a handful of invariant features sometimes outperform deep architectures with many more parameters and far longer training times. Still there remains tremendous potential to improve these baselines by combining machine learning and cosmological modeling in a more principled way, one that fully exploits the structure in the data. CosmoBench sets the stage for bridging cosmology and geometric deep learning at scale. We invite the community to push the frontier of scientific discovery by engaging with this challenging, high-impact dataset.

The lack of fine-grained, large-scale datasets on water availability presents a critical barrier to applying machine learning (ML) for agricultural water management. Since there are multiple natural and anthropogenic factors that influence water availability, incorporating diverse multimodal features can significantly improve modeling performance. However, integrating such heterogeneous data is challenging due to spatial misalignments, inconsistent formats, semantic label ambiguities, and class imbalances. To address these challenges, we introduce IRRISIGHT, a large-scale, multimodal dataset spanning 20 U.S. states. It consists of 1.4 million pixel-aligned 224×224 patches that fuse satellite imagery with rich environmental attributes. We develop a robust geospatial fusion pipeline that aligns raster, vector, and point-based data on a unified 10m grid, and employ domain-informed structured prompts to convert tabular attributes into natural language. With irrigation type classification as a representative problem, the dataset is AI-ready, offering a spatially disjoint train/test split and extensive benchmarking with both vision and vision–language models. Our results demonstrate that multimodal representations substantially improve model performance, establishing a foundation for future research on water availability.https://github.com/Nibir088/IRRISIGHThttps://huggingface.co/datasets/OBH30/IRRISIGHT

Machine learning interatomic potentials (MLIPs) have revolutionized molecular and materials modeling, but existing benchmarks suffer from data leakage, limited transferability, and an over-reliance on error-based metrics tied to specific density functional theory (DFT) references. We introduce MLIP Arena, a benchmark platform that evaluates force field performance based on physics awareness, chemical reactivity, stability under extreme conditions, and predictive capabilities for thermodynamic properties and physical phenomena. By moving beyond static DFT references and revealing the important failure modes of current foundation MLIPs in real-world settings, MLIP Arena provides a reproducible framework to guide the next-generation MLIP development toward improved predictive accuracy and runtime efficiency while maintaining physical consistency. The Python package and online leaderboard are available at https://github.com/atomind-ai/mlip-arena.

There has recently been a surge of interest in Wearable Assistant Agents: agents embodied in a wearable form factor such as smart glasses, who can take actions toward a user’s stated goal — a high-level language-expressed command such as “where did I leave my keys?”, “Text Alice I will be late”, or “What’s the weather in Cancun?”. In this work, we consider the complementary problem of eliminating the effort required to interact with such an agent by proactively inferring the user’s goal from multimodal contextual observations. As vision-language models (VLMs) hold strong potential to ultimately solve this problem, our work focuses on creating a strong benchmark to measure progress toward this end. Given the limited prior work in this area, establishing the benchmark required collecting a novel multimodal goal-inference dataset; our dataset comprises ~30 hours of data from 363 participants across 3,482 recordings, featuring ground-truth reference goals alongside accompanying visual, audio, digital, and longitudinal contextual observations. We ran a human predictability study, where we found that humans set a strong baseline that comprises a de facto upper bound on model performance: they show multiple choice question (MCQ) accuracy of 93%, with the best VLM achieving about 84% accuracy. However, MCQ assesses discrimination, not the model’s ultimate task of generating the goal through open-ended text generation. Through a meta-evaluation, we find that a VLM judging the generated goals is as good as a human judge if it has access to a human-authored script of the video or a correct reference goal. Finally, we evaluate several families of modern vision-language models on the benchmark, showing that larger models have a significant performance advantage, but are still far from being practically useful, as they produce relevant goals only ~57% of the time. The best-performing smaller models—whose size makes them better suited to wearable applications—perform significantly worse than their counterparts, generating ~49% accuracy on the benchmark. Through a modality ablation, we show that models benefit from extra information in relevant modalities with minimal performance degradation from irrelevant modalities, but don’t gain as much when noisy modalities are included (e.g., in the case of digital context when most of the app state is irrelevant).

Existing benchmarks for evaluating mathematical reasoning in large language models (LLMs) rely primarily on competition problems, formal proofs, or artificially challenging questions---failing to capture the nature of mathematics encountered in actual research environments. We introduce \textsc{RealMath}, a novel benchmark derived directly from research papers and mathematical forums that assesses LLMs' abilities on authentic mathematical tasks. Our approach addresses three critical challenges: sourcing diverse research-level content, enabling reliable automated evaluation through verifiable statements, and designing a continually refreshable dataset to mitigate contamination risks. Experimental results across multiple LLMs reveal surprising capabilities in handling research mathematics compared to competition problems, suggesting current models may already serve as valuable assistants for working mathematicians despite limitations on highly challenging problems. The code and dataset for \textsc{RealMath} are publicly available.

Learning disentangled representations in sequential data is a key goal in deep learning, with broad applications in vision, audio, and time series. While real-world data involves multiple interacting semantic factors over time, prior work has mostly focused on simpler two-factor static and dynamic settings, primarily because such settings make data collection easier, thereby overlooking the inherently multi-factor nature of real-world data. We introduce the first standardized benchmark for evaluating multi-factor sequential disentanglement across six diverse datasets spanning video, audio, and time series. Our benchmark includes modular tools for dataset integration, model development, and evaluation metrics tailored to multi-factor analysis. We additionally propose a post-hoc Latent Exploration Stage to automatically align latent dimensions with semantic factors, and introduce a Koopman-inspired model that achieves state-of-the-art results. Moreover, we show that Vision-Language Models can automate dataset annotation and serve as zero-shot disentanglement evaluators, removing the need for manual labels and human intervention. Together, these contributions provide a robust and scalable foundation for advancing multi-factor sequential disentanglement. Our code is available on GitHub, and the datasets and trained models are available on Hugging Face.

Human feedback plays a pivotal role in aligning large language models (LLMs) with human preferences. However, such feedback is often noisy or inconsistent, which can degrade the quality of reward models and hinder alignment. While various automated data cleaning methods have been proposed to mitigate this issue, a systematic evaluation of their effectiveness and generalizability remains lacking. To bridge this gap, we introduce the first comprehensive benchmark for evaluating 13 preference data cleaning methods in the context of LLM alignment. Our framework offers a standardized protocol to assess cleaning strategies in terms of alignment performance and generalizability across diverse datasets, model architectures, and optimization algorithms. By unifying disparate methods and rigorously comparing them, we uncover key factors that determine the success of data cleaning in alignment tasks. This benchmark lays the groundwork for principled and reproducible approaches to improving LLM alignment through better data quality—highlighting the crucial but underexplored role of data preprocessing in responsible AI development. We release modular implementations of all methods to catalyze further research: https://github.com/deeplearning-wisc/PrefCleanBench.

We introduce STSBench, a scenario-based framework to benchmark the holistic understanding of vision-language models (VLMs) for autonomous driving. The framework automatically mines predefined traffic scenarios from any dataset using ground-truth annotations, provides an intuitive user interface for efficient human verification, and generates multiple-choice questions for model evaluation. Applied to the nuScenes dataset, we present STSnu, the first benchmark that evaluates the spatio-temporal reasoning capabilities of VLMs based on comprehensive 3D perception. Existing benchmarks typically target off-the-shelf or fine-tuned VLMs for images or videos from a single viewpoint, focusing on semantic tasks such as object recognition, dense captioning, risk assessment, or scene understanding. In contrast, STSnu evaluates driving expert VLMs for end-to-end driving, operating on videos from multi-view cameras or LiDAR. It specifically assesses their ability to reason about both ego-vehicle actions and complex interactions among traffic participants, a crucial capability for autonomous vehicles. The benchmark features 43 diverse scenarios spanning multiple views and frames, resulting in 971 human-verified multiple-choice questions. A thorough evaluation uncovers critical shortcomings in existing models’ ability to reason about fundamental traffic dynamics in complex environments. These findings highlight the urgent need for architectural advancements that explicitly model spatio-temporal reasoning. By addressing a core gap in spatio-temporal evaluation, STSBench enables the development of more robust and explainable VLMs for autonomous driving.

Recent multimodal image generators such as GPT-4o, Gemini 2.0 Flash, and Gemini 2.5 Pro excel at following complex instructions, editing images and maintaining concept consistency. However, they are still evaluated by disjoint toolkits: text-to-image (T2I) benchmarks that lacks multi-modal conditioning, and customized image generation benchmarks that overlook compositional semantics and common knowledge. We propose **MMIG-Bench**, a comprehensive **M**ulti-**M**odal **I**mage **G**eneration **Bench**mark that unifies these tasks by pairing 4,850 richly annotated text prompts with 1,750 multi-view reference images across 380 subjects, spanning humans, animals, objects, and artistic styles. **MMIG-Bench** is equipped with a three-level evaluation framework: (1) low-level metrics for visual artifacts and identity preservation of objects; (2) novel Aspect Matching Score (AMS): a VQA-based mid-level metric that delivers fine-grained prompt-image alignment and shows strong correlation with human judgments; and (3) high-level metrics for aesthetics and human preference. Using **MMIG-Bench**, we benchmark 17 state-of-the-art models, including Gemini 2.5 Pro, FLUX, DreamBooth, and IP-Adapter, and validate our metrics with 32k human ratings, yielding in-depth insights into architecture and data design.
