EvolveNet: Collaborative Harness Evolution for Agent Self-Improvement
Jun Nie, Yonggang Zhang, Qianshu Cai +3
The capabilities of an LLM agent depend not only on its model but on the harness: the executable program that constructs context, invokes tools, verifies results, and recovers from…
Generated Images Are Easier to Forget: A Machine Unlearning Perspective for Synthetic Image Detection
Jun Nie, Yonggang Zhang, Tongliang Liu +3
Robust detection of generated images is critical to counter the misuse of generative models. Existing methods primarily depend on learning from human-annotated training datasets, l…
DRNOISE: Benchmarking Deep Research Agents in Misleading Evidence Environments
Jun Nie, Zhiqin Yang, Zhenheng Tang +4
Deep research agents increasingly operate over the open web, where relevant records coexist with redundant summaries, outdated reports, and misleading documents. Existing evaluatio…
TTHE: Test-Time Harness Evolution
Jun Nie, Yonggang Zhang, Jun Song +5
The behavior of an LLM agent is determined not only by the underlying model, but also by its harness: the executable program that constructs context, invokes tools, verifies interm…
FedRG: Unleashing the Representation Geometry for Federated Learning with Noisy Clients
Tian Wen, Zhiqin Yang, Yonggang Zhang +4
Federated learning (FL) suffers from performance degradation due to the inevitable presence of noisy annotations in distributed scenarios. Existing approaches have advanced in dist…
Epistemic Uncertainty for Generated Image Detection
Jun Nie, Yonggang Zhang, Tongliang Liu +3
We introduce a novel framework for AI-generated image detection through epistemic uncertainty, aiming to address critical security concerns in the era of generative models. Our key…
