Scivot: Benchmarking Principal-Investigator Judgment at Pivotal Moments of Scientific AutoResearch Agents

Youran Sun, Xingyu Ren, Chugang Yi +15

Large language model (LLM) agents can keep scientific experiments running for months with little human supervision, but reliable autonomous research also requires scientific judgme…

AgonAlpha: Autonomous Alpha Discovery via Prompt Economy and Scalable Agentic Search

Weicheng Ye, Youran Sun, Xingyu Ren +3

Language models can propose many plausible trading factors, but an autonomous research system must also allocate its evaluation budget, verify its own evidence, and preserve how ea…

Understanding Sparse Attention Selectivity in Long-Context Foundation Models via Counterfactual Evaluation

Xingyu Ren, Youran Sun, Chugang Yi +1

Sparse attention is widely deployed in long-context serving stacks, yet no framework audits how discarding blocks changes the influence of specific content on model output. We firs…

Effective Parameters, Real Behavior: Renormalization for Robotics -- From Infinite Electron Mass to Sim-to-Real Gap

Youran Sun, Jiaxuan Guo, Xingyu Ren +2

Bridging the sim-to-real gap is a central problem in robotics, and the prevailing approach is to build increasingly accurate simulators. Here, we propose another approach based on…

RouterVLA: Budgeted Commissioning and Expert Onboarding for Growing VLA Pools

Xingyu Ren, Chugang Yi, Youran Sun

Robotic teams often maintain several vision-language-action policies but still deploy one global winner. We study two recurring decisions: which expert to deploy for a new conditio…

PerspectiveGap: A Benchmark for Multi-Agent Orchestration Prompting

Youran Sun, Xingyu Ren, Kejia Zhang +2

Real-world LLM applications are moving beyond single-agent workflows toward orchestrated multi-agent systems, yet current models still struggle to determine what each sub-agent nee…

Agon: An Autonomous Large-Scale Omnidisciplinary Research System Built on Prompt Economy

Youran Sun, Xingyu Ren, Chugang Yi +4

Large language models are making research production scalable, shifting the bottleneck from producing artifacts to judging claims. We present \textsc{Agon}, a research orchestrator…

Decoupling Strategy and Execution in Task-Focused Dialogue via Goal-Oriented Preference Optimization

Jingyi Xu, Xingyu Ren, Zhoupeng Shou +2

Large language models show potential in task-oriented dialogue systems, yet existing training methods often rely on token-level likelihood or preference optimization, which poorly…

An Efficient Graph-Transformer Operator for Learning Physical Dynamics with Manifolds Embedding

Pengwei Liu, Xingyu Ren, Pengkai Wang +6

Accurate and efficient physical simulations are essential in science and engineering, yet traditional numerical solvers face significant challenges in computational cost when handl…

Correcting Mean Bias in Text Embeddings: A Refined Renormalization with Training-Free Improvements on MMTEB

Xingyu Ren, Youran Sun, Haoyu Liang

We find that current sentence-embedding models produce outputs with a consistent bias: every embedding decomposes as , where the mean is near-identical across…
