Mechanist: AI as a Scientific Instrument for Discovering the Mechanisms of Intelligence
Mengru Wang, Junfeng Fang, Shuofei Qiao +16
AI models have achieved remarkable success across diverse domains, yet the mechanisms underlying their capabilities and the risks they may pose remain poorly understood. As AI deve…
Filesystem-Based Memory for LLM Agents: Organization, Evolution, and Sustainability
Sizhe Zhou, Sheldon Yu, Hui Wei +8
The paper systematically investigates how large language model agents can use a filesystem of markdown files as long‑term memory, examining different organization strategies, tools…
How Hard Does It Think? Analyzing Step-Aware Reasoning Energy in LLM Chain-of-Thought Trajectories
Hui Wei, Junda Wu, Sheldon Yu +8
Understanding how computational effort is allocated across individual chain-of-thought (CoT) reasoning steps remains an open challenge: existing interpretability methods rely on ou…
RRPO: Reference-Relative Policy Optimization with Stratified Conditional Rollouts
Yuxin Xiong, Xunyi Jiang, Rohan Surana +8
Group Relative Policy Optimization (GRPO) has shown strong effectiveness in reinforcement learning from verifiable feedback, where sampled rollouts can be compared within a group u…
Spider 2.0-AIFunc: Extending Real-World Text-to-SQL to AI-Native SQL Workflows
Tianyang Liu, Canwen Xu, Fangyu Lei +6
Major cloud data platforms now expose large language model capabilities as native SQL functions, enabling analysts to perform classification, filtering, sentiment analysis, extract…
Efficient and Trainable Language Model Test-Time Scaling via Local Branch Routing
Yutong Yin, Mingyu Jin, Jin Pan +12
Test-time scaling improves language-model reasoning, but existing approaches often face a difficult trade-off: long chain-of-thought sampling remains single-threaded, while sentenc…
