Confidence Reasoning Graphs: Structured Confidence Estimation for LLM Agents

Brendan King, Farima Fatahi Bayat, Jean-Flavien Bussotti +2

When using an LLM agent in a consequential domain, making an informed decision about whether to trust its output or intervene requires calibrated confidence in the agent's success.…

MAWILE: Multi-Axis Workbench for Inspecting LLM Evaluators

Jackson Hassell, Farima Fatahi Bayat, Pouya Pezeshkpour +1

Large language model (LLM) judges provide a flexible and scalable method for evaluating model and agent outputs, but their verdicts can be sensitive to incidental changes in the ev…

ABSOL: Aggregated Bayesian Subsampling Orchestrated with LLMs

Jackson Hassell, Chen Shen, Estevam Hruschka

Large language models are increasingly used as natural-language interfaces to structured data, yet they remain unreliable when answers require consistent evidence conditioning, dep…

Who Maintains Agent Skills? A Longitudinal Study of Human-Governed, AI-Assisted Skill Maintenance

Chen Shen, Estevam Hruschka

Lifelong LLM agents increasingly rely on external skill artifacts as one element for preserving and reusing capabilities over time. These skills (usually portable Markdown files su…

How to Steer Your Multi-Agent System: Human-LLM Collaborative Planning

Zeyu He, Hannah Kim, Dan Zhang +1

In orchestrated multi-agent systems, humans often struggle to manage plans due to their complexity and limited transparency. Existing approaches rely on outcome-level supervision,…

Reflective Prompt Tuning through Language Model Function-Calling

Farima Fatahi Bayat, Moin Aminnaseri, Pouya Pezeshkpour +1

Large language models (LLMs) have become increasingly capable of following instructions and complex reasoning, making prompting a flexible interface for adapting models without par…

Do Agents Need to Plan Step-by-Step? Rethinking Planning Horizon in Data-Centric Tool Calling

Naoki Otani, Nikita Bhutani, Hannah Kim +2

Explicit planning is a critical capability for LLM-based agents solving complex data-centric tasks, which require precise tool calling over external data sources. Existing strategi…

AutoPyVerifier: Learning Compact Executable Verifiers for Large Language Model Outputs

Pouya Pezeshkpour, Estevam Hruschka

Verification is becoming central to both reinforcement-learning-based training and inference-time control of large language models (LLMs). Yet current verifiers face a fundamental…

Blue Data Intelligence Layer: Streaming Data and Agents for Multi-source Multi-modal Data-Centric Applications

Moin Aminnaseri, Farima Fatahi Bayat, Nikita Bhutani +17

NL2SQL systems aim to address the growing need for natural language interaction with data. However, real-world information rarely maps to a single SQL query because (1) users expre…

Align Then Adapt: Label-Efficient Adapter Learning for Asymmetric Dense Retrieval

Seiji Maekawa, Moin Aminnaseri, Pouya Pezeshkpour +1

Dense retrieval systems increasingly face an asymmetry between complex instruction-like queries and relatively simple, static document collections. While stronger embedders can bet…

From Textual Columns to Query Plans: A Unified Relational-Semantic Execution Framework for Hybrid Query Processing

Nima Shahbazi, Seiji Maekawa, Nikita Bhutani +1

Real-world table question answering often involves hybrid schemas in which some query-relevant information is explicit in relational columns, while other attributes, predicates, or…

A Dynamic Self-Evolving Extraction System

Moin Amin-Naseri, Hannah Kim, Estevam Hruschka

The extraction of structured information from raw text is a fundamental component of many NLP applications, including document retrieval, ranking, and relevance estimation. High-qu…

From Task Solving to Robust Real-World Adaptation in LLM Agents

Pouya Pezeshkpour, Estevam Hruschka

Large language models are increasingly deployed as specialized agents that plan, call tools, and take actions over extended horizons. Yet many existing evaluations assume a "clean…
