Bidirectional Context Self-Distillation for Reinforcement Learning of Skill-Based LLM Agents

Tianjun Pan, Yuan Li, Hongda Wang +8

External natural-language skills provide large language model (LLM) agents with reusable and editable guidance for solving complex tasks. Yet their effectiveness depends not only o…

POEM: Phase-Aware Feature Rotation for Time Series Forecasting Under Periodicity Drift

Jiawen Zhu, Shuhan Liu, Shengxuan Li +2

Deep learning has advanced time series forecasting, but periodicity drift, in which cycle timing and phase vary over time, remains a challenging problem. Existing methods predomina…

Beyond Solution-Centric Search: Adaptive Inquiry and Knowledge Revision for Autonomous ML Engineering

Shaokang Fu, Yulong Tao, Linbo Jin +7

Long-horizon autonomous research tasks such as machine learning engineering require systems to make interdependent decisions under a limited budget. Existing LLM-based agents typic…

MerchantBench: Benchmarking LLM Agents for Long-Term Coherence in E-Commerce Operations

Qiming Shi, Yulong Tao, Linbo Jin +10

Large language model agents are increasingly evaluated as autonomous tool users, yet most benchmarks focus on bounded tasks with immediate success criteria. Real-world deployments…

SKILL-KD: Contrastive Skill Distillation for LLM Agents

Qiming Shi, Yibo Dou, Jiawen Zhu +5

The paper introduces SKILL-KD, a contrastive skill distillation framework that creates explicit textual skill patches from teacher‑student failures to iteratively improve weaker LL…

SPADER: Step-wise Peer Advantage with Diversity-Aware Exploration Rewards for Multi-Answer Question Answering

Qiming Shi, Zhaolu Kang, Yunfan Zhou +2

Large language models are increasingly deployed as tool-augmented agents to acquire information beyond parametric knowledge. While recent work has improved long-horizon tool-use re…
