Exploring Agentic Tool-Calling Decisions via Uncertainty-Aligned Reinforcement Learning

Yijin Zhou, Linqian Zeng, Xiaoya Lu +4

Large language model (LLM)-based agents often make suboptimal tool-use decisions, including unsupported tool invocation and hallucinated direct responses, which may accumulate erro…

Valence-Arousal Subspace in LLMs: Circular Emotion Geometry and Multi-Behavioral Control

Lihao Sun, Lewen Yan, Xiaoya Lu +3

We show that emotion vectors in LLMs are organized by a two-dimensional valence-arousal (VA) subspace exhibiting circular geometry. Through principal component decomposition and ri…
