Coupling Planning with Episodic Memory in LLM Agents for Software Issue Resolution

Jiahao Zhang, Yifan Zhang, Yu Huang

Resolving a real software issue with a large language model (LLM) agent is a long repair episode, often tens to hundreds of steps spanning exploration, hypothesis, implementation,…

SynthFix: Adaptive Neuro-Symbolic Code Vulnerability Repair

Yifan Zhang, Jieyu Li, Kexin Pei +2

Large Language Models (LLMs) can generate plausible code patches, but plausibility is not enough for automated repair: a patch must compile, pass tests, and remove the target vulne…

EyeMulator: Improving Code Language Models by Mimicking Human Visual Attention

Yifan Zhang, Chen Huang, Yueke Zhang +5

Code Language Models (CodeLLMs) learn token importance from data correlations, whereas human developers attend selectively to semantically salient code. We present EyeMulator, a mo…

VERITAS: Verifier-Guided Proof Search for Zero-Shot Formal Theorem Proving

Manish Acharya, Zhenyu Liao, Yueke Zhang +3

LLM-based formal provers often collapse rich verifier signals (syntax errors, type mismatches, partial goal progress) into a binary pass/fail bit. We present VERITAS, a zero-shot f…

RefEvo: Agentic Design with Co-Evolutionary Verification for Agile Reference Model Generation

Yifan Zhang, Jianmin Ye, Jiahao Yang +1

As the complexity of System-on-Chip (SoC) designs grows, the shift-left paradigm necessitates the rapid development of high-fidelity reference models (typically written in SystemC)…

ContextRL: Enhancing MLLM's Knowledge Discovery Efficiency with Context-Augmented RL

Xingyu Lu, Jinpeng Wang, YiFan Zhang +12

We propose ContextRL, a novel framework that leverages context augmentation to overcome these bottlenecks. Specifically, to enhance Identifiability, we provide the reward model wit…
