Harbor Adapters and Harbor-Index: Infrastructure and a Curated Meta-Dataset for Large-Scale Agentic Evaluation

Lin Shi, Haowei Lin, Zixuan Zhu +123

Evaluating agents on the growing number of agentic benchmarks is challenging because they often require complex environments and agent integrations. We introduce Harbor Adapters, a…

RecurSE: Bounded Recursive Self-Evaluation for LLM Rubric Judges

Kaiyuan Liu, Ziyuan Zhuang, Rongxiang Weng +1

LLM-as-judge is essential for evaluating open-ended text and steering post-training, yet improving the judge itself typically relies on expensive annotations, reward models, or dis…

Prefix Teach, Suffix Fade: Local Teachability Collapse in Strong-to-Weak On-Policy Distillation

Kaiyuan Liu, Ziyuan Zhuang, Yang Bai +3

On-policy distillation (OPD) trains a student model on its own rollouts using dense feedback from a stronger teacher. Prior literature suggests that, provided teacher feedback is a…

OpenDeepThink: Parallel Reasoning via Bradley-Terry Aggregation

Shang Zhou, Wenhao Chai, Kaiyuan Liu +3

Test-time compute scaling is a primary axis for improving LLM reasoning. Existing methods primarily scale depth by extending a single reasoning trace. Scaling breadth by sampling m…

FrontierSmith: Synthesizing Open-Ended Coding Problems at Scale

Runyuan He, Qiuyang Mang, Shang Zhou +14

Many real-world coding challenges are open-ended and admit no known optimal solution. Yet, recent progress in LLM coding has focused on well-defined tasks such as feature implement…

Multi-Objective and Mixed-Reward Reinforcement Learning via Reward-Decorrelated Policy Optimization

Yang Bai, Kaiyuan Liu, Ziyuan Zhuang +5

Complex reinforcement learning environments frequently employ multi-task and mixed-reward formulations. In these settings, heterogeneous reward distributions and correlated reward…

AutoCode: LLMs as Problem Setters for Competitive Programming

Shang Zhou, Zihan Zheng, Kaiyuan Liu +18

Writing competitive programming problems is exacting. Authors must: set constraints, input distributions, and edge cases that rule out shortcuts; target specific algorithms (e.g.,…

LiveCodeBench Pro: How Do Olympiad Medalists Judge LLMs in Competitive Programming?

Zihan Zheng, Zerui Cheng, Zeyu Shen +16

Recent reports claim that large language models (LLMs) now outperform elite humans in competitive programming. Drawing on knowledge from a group of medalists in international algor…
