Learning What to Investigate Next: Meta-Reasoning for Long-Horizon Research Agents
Ankur Samanta, Yonathan Efroni, Paul Sajda +2
Long-horizon research agents must decide both how to investigate and what to investigate next as evidence accumulates. This is hard to learn because such decisions are sparse in lo…
Augmenting Human Performance with an XR Agent Learning from Online Behavior and BCI Evidence
Ziheng Li, Xichen He, Haoyan Chen +10
We present OLIVE, a framework for adapting a foundation model to provide real-time assistance in temporally demanding, high-stakes, and dynamic tasks. We show that passive EEG, fus…
BayesBench: Evaluating LLM Belief Trajectories Under Multi-Turn Evidence Accumulation
Ankur Samanta, Akshayaa Magesh, Tal Lancewicki +7
Large language models (LLMs) are typically deployed in multi-turn conversations, where each turn provides new evidence that should reduce epistemic uncertainty about their environm…
Credit Assignment with Resets in Language Model Reasoning
Ankur Samanta, Akshayaa Magesh, Ayush Jain +7
Contemporary reinforcement learning with verifiable reward methods post-train language models on multi-step reasoning by assigning a single outcome reward uniformly across all toke…
Structure Enables Effective Self-Localization of Errors in LLMs
Ankur Samanta, Akshayaa Magesh, Ayush Jain +8
Self-correction in language models remains elusive. In this work, we explore whether language models can explicitly localize errors in incorrect reasoning, as a path toward buildin…
Self-Improvement of Language Models by Post-Training on Multi-Agent Debate
Ankur Samanta, Akshayaa Magesh, Runzhe Wu +7
Self-improvement, where models improve beyond their current performance without external supervision, remains a challenge. The core difficulty is sourcing a training signal stronge…
