Don't Mask the Environment: Observation Supervision Changes How Agents Explore Under RL

Juzheng Zhang, Disha Makhija, Manoj Ghuhan Arivazhagan +2

Agent trajectories record what an agent does and what happens next. Yet standard supervised fine-tuning (SFT) applies loss only to agent-authored action tokens, using environment o…

Probing the Prompt KV Cache: Where It Becomes Dispensable

Vinayshekhar Bannihatti Kumar, Manoj Ghuhan Arivazhagan, Disha Makhija +1

Prior KV cache compression schemes empirically demonstrate that the prompt cache is partially redundant during decoding, dropping or summarising entries with little accuracy loss.…

Syntax Without Semantics: Teaching Large Language Models to Code in an Unseen Language

Vinayshekhar Bannihatti Kumar, Disha Makhija, Manoj Ghuhan Arivazhagan +1

Large language models (LLMs) achieve high pass rates on code generation benchmarks, yet whether they can transfer this ability to languages absent from pretraining remains poorly u…
