LatentSkill: From In-Context Textual Skills to In-Weight Latent Skills for LLM Agents
Aofan Yu, Chenyu Zhou, Tianyi Xu +8
Agent systems increasingly use textual skills to encode reusable task procedures, but injecting these skills into the prompt at every step incurs substantial context overhead and e…
Contexting as Recommendation: Evolutionary Collaborative Filtering for Context Engineering
Jiachen Zhu, Zhuoying Ou, Congmin Zheng +9
Large Language Models (LLMs) are highly sensitive to their input contexts, motivating the development of automated context engineering. However, existing methods predominantly trea…
Position: Academic Conferences are Potentially Facing Denominator Gaming Caused by Fully Automated Scientific Agents
Rong Shan, Te Gao, Hang Zheng +6
The implicit policy of maintaining relatively stable acceptance rates at top AI conferences, despite exponentially growing submissions, introduces a critical structural vulnerabili…
A Survey of Process Reward Models: From Outcome Signals to Process Supervisions for Large Language Models
Congmin Zheng, Jiachen Zhu, Zhuoying Ou +8
Although Large Language Models (LLMs) exhibit advanced reasoning ability, conventional alignment remains largely dominated by outcome reward models (ORMs) that judge only final ans…
Externalization in LLM Agents: A Unified Review of Memory, Skills, Protocols and Harness Engineering
Chenyu Zhou, Huacan Chai, Wenteng Chen +18
Large language model (LLM) agents are increasingly built less by changing model weights than by reorganizing the runtime around them. Capabilities that earlier systems expected the…
PhotoBench: Beyond Visual Matching Towards Personalized Intent-Driven Photo Retrieval
Tianyi Xu, Rong Shan, Junjie Wu +11
Personal photo albums are not merely collections of static images but living, ecological archives defined by temporal continuity, social entanglement, and rich metadata, which make…
