AutoLab: Can Frontier Models Solve Long-Horizon Auto Research and Engineering Tasks?
Zhangchen Xu, Junda Chen, Yue Huang +16
Scientific and engineering progress is fundamentally a long-horizon iterative process: proposing changes, running experiments, measuring outcomes, and continuously refining artifac…
Agent Explorative Policy Optimization for Multimodal Agentic Reasoning
Minki Kang, Shizhe Diao, Ryo Hachiuma +4
Vision-language models with extended reasoning succeed on complex problems, but many real-world problems require external tools that internal reasoning alone often cannot resolve.…
Polar: Agentic RL on Any Harness at Scale
Binfeng Xu, Hao Zhang, Shaokun Zhang +9
Reinforcement learning for language agents increasingly depends on custom harnesses that manage long-running context, multi-turn tool use and multi-agent orchestration. However, po…
Speech-Hands: A Self-Reflection Voice Agentic Approach to Speech Recognition and Audio Reasoning with Omni Perception
Zhen Wan, Chao-Han Huck Yang, Jinchuan Tian +15
We introduce a voice-agentic framework that learns one critical omni-understanding skill: knowing when to trust itself versus when to consult external audio perception. Our work is…
NVIDIA Nemotron Nano 2: An Accurate and Efficient Hybrid Mamba-Transformer Reasoning Model
NVIDIA, :, Aarti Basant +214
We introduce Nemotron-Nano-9B-v2, a hybrid Mamba-Transformer language model designed to increase throughput for reasoning workloads while achieving state-of-the-art accuracy compar…
The Challenge of Teaching Reasoning to LLMs Without RL or Distillation
Wei Du, Branislav Kisacanin, George Armstrong +22
Reasoning-capable language models achieve state-of-the-art performance in diverse complex tasks by generating long, explicit Chain-of-Thought (CoT) traces. While recent works show…
