GroundGUI: GUI Grounding by High-Quality Data and Distillation-to-Reinforcement Learning

Qingsong Xie, Jiahao Tian, Jiacheng Tang +5

Constructing robust GUI agents relies on multimodal visual grounding: the ability to precisely map natural language intents to actionable on-screen components. Despite abundant des…

Autocata: Reaction-network-guided autonomous catalyst screening via capability-centric AI

Ruili Li, Rui Qi, Qingqing Mao +3

Artificial intelligence (AI) has expanded the accessible space for catalyst discovery, yet executing complex screening campaigns still requires constant human intervention to bridg…

Train What You Deploy: Closing the MLP Reachability Gap in Low-Rank Clone Distillation

Wenhui Chen, Zhifeng Li, Jie Zhou +5

A compressed student has two shapes that need not agree: the weight it deploys at inference and the weight family its training can reach. We show that a state-of-the-art weight-inh…

How Do Agents Fail on AutoResearch: End-to-End Diagnostic Evaluation on 100 Real-World Frontier Research Tasks

Yanlin Fei, Nazhou Liu, Xinmiao Yu +7

AI has long assisted scientific research, but the rapid advance of LLMs and agentic scaffolds is reshaping the landscape; a single system can now carry whole-stage research from an…

Reconstruction: A Blind Benchmark for Recovering Research Ideas from Pre-Publication Bibliographies

Shaolong Chen, Yanlin Fei, Nazhou Liu +7

Can a language model recover the true research idea of a published paper when given only that paper's pre-publication bibliography? We introduce Reconstruction, a blind idea-recove…

Reaction-Network-Level Discovery of Ammonia Synthesis Catalysts via Ten-Million-Scale Generative Exploration

Ruili Li, Rui Qi, Shuoqi Zhang +5

Catalyst discovery for ammonia synthesis is inherently a reaction-network challenge because catalytic performance is governed not by a single adsorbed intermediate, but by a surfac…

Interpretability-Guided Layer Selection over Subspace Projection: SAEs as Stethoscopes, Not Scalpels, for Raw Task Vector Model Editing

Li Lei, Madalina Ciobanu, Qingqing Mao +1

LLMs increasingly require surgical model editing to enhance domain-specific capabilities without incurring the computational cost or catastrophic forgetting associated with full fi…

AdaDPO: Self-Adaptive Direct Preference Optimization with Balanced Gradient Updates

Shaolong Chen, Madalina Ciobanu, Qingqing Mao +1

DPO has become a widely adopted alternative to RLHF for aligning LLMs with human preferences, eliminating the need for a separate reward model or RL loop. Recent theoretical analys…

OpenMedLM: Prompt engineering can out-perform fine-tuning in medical question-answering with open-source large language models

Jenish Maharjan, Anurag Garikipati, Navan Preet Singh +7

LLMs have become increasingly capable at accomplishing a range of specialized-tasks and can be utilized to expand equitable access to medical knowledge. Most medical LLMs have invo…
