Social Aspects · Accountability, Transparency and Interpretability

Finetuning on narrow domains has become an essential tool to adapt Large Language Models (LLMs) to specific tasks and to create models with known unusual properties that are useful for safety research. Model diffing--the study of differences between base and finetuned models--is a promising approach for understanding how finetuning modifies neural networks. In this paper, we show that narrow finetuning creates easily readable biases in LLM activations that can be detected using simple model diffing tools, suggesting that the finetuning data is overrepresented in the model's activations. In particular, analyzing activation differences between base and finetuned models on the first few tokens of random text and steering with this difference allows us to recover the format and general content of the finetuning data. We call this the Activation Difference Lens (ADL). We demonstrate that these analyses significantly enhance an LLM-based interpretability agent's ability to identify subtle finetuning objectives through interaction with base and finetuned models. Our analysis spans synthetic document finetuning for false facts, emergent misalignment, subliminal learning, and taboo guessing game models across different architectures (Gemma, LLaMA, Qwen) and scales (1B to 32B parameters). Our work: (1) demonstrates that researchers should be aware that narrow finetuned models will represent their training data and objective very saliently, (2) warns AI safety and mechanistic interpretability researchers that these models might not be a realistic proxy for studying broader finetuning, despite current literature widely using them. While we show that mixing pretraining data into the finetuning corpus is enough to remove this bias, a deeper investigation is needed to understand the side effects of narrow finetuning and develop truly realistic case studies for model-diffing, safety and interpretability research.

In language tasks requiring extensive human-model interaction, the inference cost of large language models (LLMs) can be substantial. To reduce expenses while preserving the quality of the responses, an LLM router selects among candidate models to balance between the expected response quality and the inference cost. A central challenge in router training is the accuracy and accessibility of reliable supervision. Gold-standard data, obtained from domain experts or benchmark labels, provide accurate quality evaluations of LLM responses but are costly and difficult to scale. In contrast, preference-based data, collected via crowdsourcing or LLM-as-a-judge systems, are cheaper and more scalable, yet often biased in reflecting the true quality of responses. We cast the problem of LLM router training with combined Gold-standard and preference-based data into a causal inference framework by viewing the response evaluation mechanism as the treatment assignment. This perspective further reveals that the bias in preference-based data corresponds to the well-known causal estimand: the conditional average treatment effect (CATE). Based on this new perspective, we develop an integrative causal router training framework that corrects preference-data bias, addresses imbalances between two data sources, and improves routing robustness and efficiency. Numerical experiments demonstrate that our approach delivers more accurate routing and improves the trade-off between cost and quality. Illustrative code to reproduce our main experiment is available at https://github.com/yichistat/Meta-router.

Recent work has explored training Large Language Model (LLM) search agents with reinforcement learning (RL) for open-domain question answering. However, most evaluations focus solely on final answer accuracy, overlooking how these agents reason with and act on external evidence. We introduce **SeekBench**, the first process-level evaluation framework for LLM search agents that operationalize *epistemic competence* through metrics derived from an annotation schema. We develop and validate our annotation schema using an expert-annotated dataset of 190 traces (over 1,800 steps). To evaluate at scale, we introduce an LLM-as-judge pipeline. Our framework provides granular analysis of whether agents demonstrate: (1) **groundedness**, by generating reasoning steps supported by observed evidence; (2) **recovery**, by adaptively reformulating searches to recover from low-quality results; and (3) **calibration**, by correctly assessing whether current evidence is sufficient to provide an answer. By applying our evaluation framework to state-of-the-art search agents tuned on Qwen2.5-7B, we uncover critical behavioral gaps that answer-only metrics miss, as well as specialized skills such as Search-R1's synthesis abilities. These analyses highlight distinct epistemic competencies, offering actionable insights for the development of more capable and trustworthy agents. Code is available at https://github.com/SHAO-Jiaqi757/SeekBench.

Real-time execution is essential for cyber-physical systems such as robots. These systems operate in dynamic real-world environments where even small delays can undermine responsiveness and compromise performance. Asynchronous inference has recently emerged as a system-level paradigm for real-time robot manipulation, enabling the next action chunk to be predicted while the current one is being executed. While this approach achieves real-time responsiveness, naive integration often results in execution failure. Previous methods attributed this failure to inter-chunk discontinuity and developed test-time algorithms to smooth chunk boundaries. In contrast, we identify another critical yet overlooked factor: intra-chunk inconsistency, where the robot’s executed action chunk partially misaligns with its current perception. To address this, we propose REMAC, which learns corrective adjustments on the pretrained policy through masked action chunking, enabling the policy to remain resilient under mismatches between intended actions and actual execution during asynchronous inference. In addition, we introduce a prefix-preserved sampling procedure to reinforce inter-chunk continuity. Overall, our method delivers more reliable policies without incurring additional latency. Extensive experiments in both simulation and real-world settings demonstrate that our method enables faster task execution, maintains robustness across varying delays, and consistently achieves higher completion rates.

Despite their ability to understand chemical knowledge, large language models (LLMs) remain limited in their capacity to propose novel molecules with desired functions (e.g., drug-like properties). In addition, the molecules that LLMs propose can often be challenging to make, and are almost never compatible with automated synthesis approaches. To better enable the discovery of functional small molecules, LLMs need to learn a new molecular language that is more effective in predicting properties and inherently synced with automated synthesis technology. Current molecule LLMs are limited by representing molecules based on atoms. In this paper, we argue that just like tokenizing texts into meaning-bearing (sub-)word tokens instead of characters, molecules should be tokenized at the level of functional building blocks, i.e., parts of molecules that bring unique functions and serve as effective building blocks for real-world automated laboratory synthesis. This motivates us to propose mCLM, a modular Chemical-Language Model that comprises a bilingual language model that understands both natural language descriptions of functions and molecular blocks. mCLM front-loads synthesizability considerations while improving the predicted functions of molecules in a principled manner. Experiments on 430 FDA-approved drugs showed that mCLM is capable of significantly improving chemical functions critical to determining drug potentials. mCLM, with only 3B parameters, also achieves improvements in synthetic accessibility relative to 7 other leading generative AI methods including GPT-5. When tested on 122 out-of-distribution medicines using only building blocks/tokens that are compatible with automated modular synthesis, mCLM outperforms all baselines in property scores and synthetic accessibility. mCLM can also reason on multiple functions and iteratively self-improve to rescue drug candidates that failed late in clinical trials (“fallen angels”).

The advent of Vision-Language Models (VLMs) has significantly advanced end-to-end autonomous driving, demonstrating powerful reasoning abilities for high-level behavior planning tasks. However, existing methods are often constrained by a passive perception paradigm, relying solely on text-based reasoning. This passivity restricts the model’s capacity to actively seek crucial visual evidence when faced with uncertainty. To address this, we introduce DriveAgent-R1, an autonomous driving agent capable of active perception for planning. In complex scenarios, DriveAgent-R1 proactively invokes tools to perform visual reasoning, firmly grounding its decisions in visual evidence, thereby enhancing both interpretability and reliability. Furthermore, we propose a hybrid thinking framework, inspired by human driver cognitive patterns, allowing the agent to adaptively switch between efficient text-only reasoning and robust tool-augmented visual reasoning based on scene complexity. This capability is cultivated through a three-stage progressive training strategy, featuring a core Cascaded Reinforcement Learning (Cascaded RL) phase. Extensive experiments on the Drive-Internal dataset, which is rich in long-tail scenarios, and the public nuScenes dataset show that, with only 3B parameters, DriveAgent-R1 achieves competitive performance comparable to top closed model systems such as GPT-5 and to human driving proficiency while remaining deployment-friendly, offering a proven path toward building more intelligent autonomous driving systems.

Deep neural networks (DNNs) often produce overconfident predictions on out-of-distribution (OOD) inputs, undermining their reliability in open-world environments. Singularities in semi-discrete optimal transport (OT) mark regions of semantic ambiguity, where classifiers are particularly prone to unwarranted high-confidence predictions. Motivated by this observation, we propose a principled framework to mitigate OOD overconfidence by leveraging the geometry of OT-induced singular boundaries. Specifically, we formulate an OT problem between a continuous base distribution and the latent embeddings of training data, and identify the resulting singular boundaries. By sampling near these boundaries, we construct a class of OOD inputs, termed optimal transport-induced OOD samples (OTIS), which are geometrically grounded and inherently semantically ambiguous. During training, a confidence suppression loss is applied to OTIS to guide the model toward more calibrated predictions in structurally uncertain regions. Extensive experiments show that our method significantly alleviates OOD overconfidence and outperforms state-of-the-art methods.

Zero-sum and non-zero-sum (aka general-sum) games are relevant in a wide range of applications. While general non-zero-sum games are computationally hard, researchers focus on the special class of monotone games for gradient-based algorithms. However, there is a substantial gap between the gradient complexity of monotone zero-sum and monotone general-sum games. Moreover, in many practical scenarios of games the zero-sum assumption needs to be relaxed. To address these issues, we define a new intermediate class of monotone near-zero-sum games that contains monotone zero-sum games as a special case. Then, we present a novel algorithm that transforms the near-zero-sum games into a sequence of zero-sum subproblems, improving the gradient-based complexity for the class. Finally, we demonstrate the applicability of this new class to model practical scenarios of games motivated from the literature.

Denoising diffusions sample from a probability distribution $\mu$ in $\mathbb{R}^d$ by constructing a stochastic process $(\hat{\mathbf{x}}_t:t\ge 0)$ in $\mathbb{R}^d$ such that $\hat{\mathbf{x}}_0$ is easy to sample, but the distribution of $\hat{\mathbf{x}}_T$ at large $T$ approximates $\mu$. The drift $\mathbf{m}:\mathbb{R}^{d}\times\mathbb{R}\to\mathbb{R}^d$ of this diffusion process is learned by minimizing a score-matching objective. Is every probability distribution $\mu$, for which sampling is tractable, also amenable to sampling via diffusions? We address this question by studying its relation to information-computation gaps in statistical estimation. Earlier work in this area constructs broad families of distributions $\mu$ for which sampling is easy, but approximating the drift $\mathbf{m}(\mathbf{y},t)$ is conjectured to be intractable, and provides rigorous evidence for intractability. We prove that this implies a failure of sampling via diffusions. First, there exist drifts whose score matching objective is superpolynomially close to the optimum value (among polynomial time drifts) and yet yield samples with distribution that is very far from the target one. Second, any polynomial-time drift that is also Lipschitz continuous results in equally incorrect sampling. We instantiate our results on the toy problem of sampling a sparse low-rank matrix, and further demonstrate empirically the failure of diffusion-based sampling. Our work implies that caution should be used in adopting diffusion sampling when other approaches are available.

Videos contain rich information but also high redundancy, as consecutive frames often share similar backgrounds and predictable motions. Current video-language models (VLMs) are unable to exploit this redundancy and therefore perform a significant amount of superfluous computation, processing thousands of patch tokens even when little new information is present. What is missing is an on-the-fly, model-agnostic signal of temporal predictability to decide whether tokens carry unpredictable information that merits computation. We propose SURGE, a training-free and backbone-agnostic method that measures surprise in token space. Surprise scores are defined by the prediction error of each token from its recent history; high-surprise tokens are retained, while predictable ones are pruned. Aggregating scores over time produces a surprise curve that highlights key events, which can be further refined with CLIP-based query relevance to form a compact spatio-temporal mask. Experiments on multiple video understanding benchmarks show that SURGE reduces tokens by up to 7$\times$ and prefill cost by 86–98\%, while maintaining accuracy within $\pm$1 point of full-token baselines. By aligning computation with novelty, SURGE enables video VLMs to handle long contexts efficiently and without retraining.

Proactive agents must decide not only what to say but also whether and when to intervene. Many current systems rely on brittle heuristics or indiscriminate long reasoning, which offers little control over the benefit-burden tradeoff. We formulate the problem as cost-sensitive selective intervention and present PRISM, a novel framework that couples a decision-theoretic gate with a dual-process reasoning architecture. At inference time, the agent intervenes only when a calibrated probability of user acceptance exceeds a threshold derived from asymmetric costs of missed help and false alarms. Inspired by festina lente (Latin: "make haste slowly"), we gate by an acceptance-calibrated, cost-derived threshold and invoke a resource-intensive Slow mode with counterfactual checks only near the decision boundary, concentrating computation on ambiguous and high-stakes cases. Training uses gate-aligned, schema-locked distillation: a teacher running the full PRISM pipeline provides dense, executable supervision on unlabeled interaction traces, while the student learns a response policy that is explicitly decoupled from the intervention gate to enable tunable and auditable control. On ProactiveBench, PRISM reduces false alarms by 22.78% and improves F1 by 20.14% over strong baselines. These results show that principled decision-theoretic gating, paired with selective slow reasoning and aligned distillation, yields proactive agents that are precise, computationally efficient, and controllable. To facilitate reproducibility, we release our code, models, and resources at https://prism-festinalente.github.io/; all experiments use the open-source ProactiveBench benchmark.

A primary bottleneck in large-scale text-to-video generation today is physical consistency and controllability. Despite recent advances, state-of-the-art models often produce unrealistic motions, such as objects falling upward, or abrupt changes in velocity and direction. Moreover, these models lack precise parameter control, struggling to generate physically consistent dynamics under different initial conditions. We argue that this fundamental limitation stems from current models learning motion distributions solely from appearance, while lacking an understanding of the underlying dynamics. In this work, we propose NewtonGen, a framework that integrates data-driven synthesis with learnable physical principles. At its core lies trainable Neural Newtonian Dynamics (NND), which can model and predict a variety of Newtonian motions, thereby injecting latent dynamical constraints into the video generation process. By jointly leveraging data priors and dynamical guidance, NewtonGen enables physically consistent video synthesis with precise parameter control. All data and code are available at https://github.com/pandayuanyu/NewtonGen.

We introduce ARPG, a novel visual Autoregressive model that enables Randomized Parallel Generation, addressing the inherent limitations of conventional raster-order approaches, which hinder inference efficiency and zero-shot generalization due to their sequential, predefined token generation order. Our key insight is that effective random-order modeling necessitates explicit guidance for determining the position of the next predicted token. To this end, we propose a novel decoupled decoding framework that decouples positional guidance from content representation, encoding them separately as queries and key-value pairs. By directly incorporating this guidance into the causal attention mechanism, our approach enables fully random-order training and generation, eliminating the need for bidirectional attention. Consequently, ARPG readily generalizes to zero-shot tasks such as image in-painting, out-painting, and resolution expansion. Furthermore, it supports parallel inference by concurrently processing multiple queries using a shared KV cache. On the ImageNet-1K 256 benchmark, our approach attains an FID of 1.83 with only 32 sampling steps, achieving over a 30 times speedup in inference and and a 75 percent reduction in memory consumption compared to representative recent autoregressive models at a similar scale.

Vision-language models, such as CLIP, achieve strong zero-shot performance through contrastive pre-training but face significant challenges in class-incremental image classification scenarios. When learning new tasks sequentially, current methods suffer from degradation in prototype quality due to passive averaging and underutilize their visual adaptation capabilities. We propose RLAP-CLIP, which addresses these limitations through three components. First, Reinforcement Learning-based Prototype Optimization (RLPO) formulates prototype construction as a reinforcement learning problem to actively optimize class separability rather than relying on simple averaging. Second, difficulty-aware cross-modal fusion uses a mixture-of-experts to route samples through specialized processing pathways based on complexity. Third, dual-modal prompting balances visual and textual adaptation. Experiments on eight image classification benchmarks demonstrate consistent improvements, with RLAP-CLIP achieving average accuracy gains of 3.72-4.46 points and final accuracy improvements of 0.49-4.48 points over other methods, validating that RLAP-CLIP achieves state-of-the-art performance.

The ability to estimate the quality of scientific papers is central to how both humans and AI systems will advance scientific knowledge in the future. However, existing LLM-based estimation methods suffer from high inference cost, whereas the faster direct score regression approach is limited by scale inconsistencies. We present NAIPv2, a debiased and efficient framework for paper quality estimation. NAIPv2 employs pairwise learning within domain-year groups to reduce inconsistencies in reviewer ratings and introduces the Review Tendency Signal (RTS) as a probabilistic integration of reviewer scores and confidences. To support training and evaluation, we further construct NAIDv2, a large-scale dataset of 24,276 ICLR submissions enriched with metadata and detailed structured content. Trained on pairwise comparisons but enabling efficient pointwise prediction at deployment, NAIPv2 achieves state-of-the-art performance (78.2\% AUC, 0.432 Spearman), while maintaining scalable, linear-time efficiency at inference. Notably, on unseen NeurIPS submissions, it further demonstrates strong generalization, with predicted scores increasing consistently across decision categories from Rejected to Oral. These findings establish NAIPv2 as a debiased and scalable framework for automated paper quality estimation, marking a step toward future scientific intelligence systems.

Recent trends in test-time scaling for reasoning models (e.g., OpenAI o1, DeepSeek-R1) have led to remarkable improvements through long Chain-of-Thought (CoT). However, existing benchmarks mainly focus on immediate, single-horizon tasks, failing to adequately evaluate models’ ability to understand and respond to complex, long-horizon scenarios. To address this incomplete evaluation of Large Reasoning Models (LRMs), we propose R-HORIZON, a method designed to stimulate long-horizon reasoning behaviors in LRMs through query composition. Based on R-HORIZON, we construct a long-horizon reasoning benchmark, comprising complex multi-step reasoning tasks with interdependent problems that span long reasoning horizons. Through comprehensive evaluation of LRMs using the R-HORIZON benchmark, we find that even the most advanced LRMs suffer significant performance degradation. Our analysis reveals that LRMs exhibit limited effective reasoning length and struggle to allocate thinking budget across multiple problems appropriately. Recognizing these limitations, we use R-HORIZON to construct long-horizon reasoning data for reinforcement learning with verified rewards (RLVR). Compared to training with single-horizon data, RLVR with R-HORIZON not only substantially improves performance on the multi-horizon reasoning tasks, but also promotes accuracy on standard reasoning tasks (+7.5 on AIME2024). These results position R-HORIZON as a scalable, controllable, and low-cost paradigm for enhancing and evaluating the long-horizon reasoning capabilities of LRMs.

Humans can often perform a new task after observing a few demonstrations by inferring the underlying intent. For robots, recovering the intent of the demonstrator through a learned reward function can enable more efficient, interpretable, and robust imitation through planning. A common paradigm for learning how to plan-from-demonstration involves first solving for a reward via Inverse Reinforcement Learning (IRL) and then deploying it via Model Predictive Control (MPC). In this work, we unify these two procedures by introducing planning-based Adversarial Imitation Learning, which simultaneously learns a reward and improves a planning-based agent through experience while using observation-only demonstrations. We study advantages of planning-based AIL in generalization, interpretability, robustness, and sample efficiency through experiments in simulated control tasks and real-world navigation from few or single observation-only demonstration.

Diffusion models have achieved impressive results in generating high-quality images. Yet, they often struggle to faithfully align the generated images with the input prompts. This limitation is associated with synchronous denoising, where all pixels simultaneously evolve from random noise to clear images. As a result, during generation, the prompt-related regions can only reference the unrelated regions at the same noise level, failing to obtain clear context and ultimately impairing text-to-image alignment. To address this issue, we propose asynchronous diffusion models, a novel framework that allocates distinct timesteps to different pixels and reformulates the pixel-wise denoising process. By dynamically modulating the timestep schedules of individual pixels, prompt-related regions are denoised more gradually than unrelated regions, thereby allowing them to leverage clearer inter-pixel context. Consequently, these prompt-related regions achieve better alignment in the final images. Extensive experiments demonstrate that our asynchronous diffusion models can significantly improve text-to-image alignment across diverse prompts.

In this paper, we study the worst-case frontier risks of the OpenAI gpt-oss model. We introduce malicious fine-tuning (MFT), where we attempt to elicit maximum capabilities by fine-tuning gpt-oss to be as capable as possible in two domains: biology and cybersecurity. To maximize biological risk (biorisk), we curate tasks related to threat creation and train gpt-oss in an RL environment with web browsing. To maximize cybersecurity risk, we train gpt-oss in an agentic coding environment to solve capture-the-flag (CTF) challenges. We compare these MFT models against open- and closed-weight LLMs on frontier risk evaluations. Compared to frontier closed-weight models, MFT gpt-oss underperforms OpenAI o3, a model that is below Preparedness High capability level for biorisk and cybersecurity. Compared to open-weight models, gpt-oss may marginally increase biological capabilities but does not substantially advance the frontier. Taken together, these results led us to believe that the net new harm from releasing gpt-oss is limited, and we hope that our MFT approach can serve as useful guidance for estimating harm from future open-weight releases.

Neural solvers have achieved impressive progress in addressing simple routing problems, particularly excelling in computational efficiency. However, their advantages under complex constraints remain nascent, for which current constraint-handling schemes via feasibility masking or implicit feasibility awareness can be inefficient or inapplicable for hard constraints. In this paper, we present Construct-and-Refine (CaR), the first general and efficient constraint-handling framework for neural routing solvers based on explicit learning-based feasibility refinement. Unlike prior construction-search hybrids that target reducing optimality gaps through heavy improvements yet still struggle with hard constraints, CaR achieves efficient constraint handling by designing a joint training framework that guides the construction module to generate diverse and high-quality solutions well-suited for a lightweight improvement process, e.g., 10 steps versus 5k steps in prior work. Moreover, CaR presents the first use of construction-improvement-shared representation, enabling potential knowledge sharing across paradigms by unifying the encoder, especially in more complex constrained scenarios. We evaluate CaR on typical hard routing constraints to showcase its broader applicability. Results demonstrate that CaR achieves superior feasibility, solution quality, and efficiency compared to both classical and neural state-of-the-art solvers. Our code, pre-trained models, and datasets are available at: https://github.com/jieyibi/CaR-constraint.
