Position: Reasoning After Perception Means Reasoning Without Vision
Hongcheng Gao, Zihao Huang, Jingyi Tang +12
A common belief in multimodal research is that the perceptual weaknesses of vision--language models can be compensated by stronger language reasoning (e.g., chain-of-thought, in-co…
Harness Updating Is Not Harness Benefit: Disentangling Evolution Capabilities in Self-Evolving LLM Agents
Minhua Lin, Juncheng Wu, Zijun Wang +14
LLM agents are increasingly deployed as systems built around editable external harnesses, including prompts, skills, memories and tools, that shape task execution without changing…
MemMA: Coordinating the Memory Cycle through Multi-Agent Reasoning and In-Situ Self-Evolution
Minhua Lin, Zhiwei Zhang, Hanqing Lu +5
Memory-augmented LLM agents maintain external memory banks to support long-horizon interaction, yet most existing systems treat construction, retrieval, and utilization as isolated…
Position: Agentic Evolution is the Path to Evolving LLMs
Minhua Lin, Hanqing Lu, Zhan Shi +11
As Large Language Models (LLMs) move from curated training sets into open-ended real-world environments, a fundamental limitation emerges: static training cannot keep pace with con…
Image Corruption-Inspired Membership Inference Attacks against Large Vision-Language Models
Zongyu Wu, Minhua Lin, Zhiwei Zhang +4
Large vision-language models (LVLMs) have demonstrated outstanding performance in many downstream tasks. However, LVLMs are trained on large-scale datasets, which can pose privacy…
How Far Are LLMs from Professional Poker Players? Revisiting Game-Theoretic Reasoning with Agentic Tool Use
Minhua Lin, Enyan Dai, Hui Liu +11
As Large Language Models (LLMs) are increasingly applied in high-stakes domains, their ability to reason strategically under uncertainty becomes critical. Poker provides a rigorous…
