arXiv:2602.12430v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The transition from monolithic language models to modular, skill-equipped agents marks a defining shift in how large language models (LLMs) are deployed in practice. Rather than encoding all procedural knowledge within model weights, agent skills — composable packages of instructions, code, and resources that agents load on demand — enable dynamic capability extension without retraining. It is formalized in a paradigm of progressive disclosure, portable skill definitions, and integration with the Model Context […]

arXiv:2602.15835v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: This paper proposes a methodology for identifying evaluation items for practical dialogue systems. Traditionally, user satisfaction and user experiences have been the primary metrics for evaluating dialogue systems. However, there are various other evaluation items to consider when developing and operating practical dialogue systems, and such evaluation items are expected to lead to new research topics. So far, there has been no methodology for identifying these evaluation items. We propose identifying evaluation items […]

arXiv:2601.07898v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large Language Models (LLMs) have recently developed new advanced functionalities. Their effectiveness relies on statistical learning and generalization capabilities. However, they face limitations in internalizing the data they process and struggle, for instance, to autonomously execute algorithms. In this paper, we investigate the possibility of extending these models’ capabilities to algorithm execution through specialized supervised training focused on reasoning decomposition. We introduce a training model called LLM-DAL (Large Language Model – Decompositional Algorithmic […]

arXiv:2601.14430v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Controlling generative models is computationally expensive. This is because optimal alignment with a reward function–whether via inference-time steering or fine-tuning–requires estimating the value function. This task demands access to the conditional posterior $p_{1|t}(x_1|x_t)$, the distribution of clean data $x_1$ consistent with an intermediate state $x_t$, a requirement that typically compels methods to resort to costly trajectory simulations. To address this bottleneck, we introduce Meta Flow Maps (MFMs), a framework extending consistency models and […]

The Rashomon set captures the collection of models that achieve near-identical empirical performance yet may differ substantially in their decision boundaries. Understanding the differences among these models, i.e., their multiplicity, is recognized as a crucial step toward model transparency, fairness, and robustness, as it reveals decision boundaries instabilities that standard metrics obscure. However, the existing definitions of Rashomon set and multiplicity metrics assume centralized learning and do not extend naturally to decentralized, multi-party settings like Federated Learning (FL).

MP4 video was built for broadcast, not for the dynamic, data-driven web. As video becomes the primary interface online, static files can’t personalize, adapt, or respond in real time. Blings proposes a runtime video model (MP5) where video is assembled on the fly like software—interactive, composable, privacy-first, and personalized for every viewer.

arXiv:2602.07132v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Computation methods for solving entropy-regularized reward optimization — a class of problems widely used for fine-tuning generative models — have advanced rapidly. Among those, Adjoint Matching (AM, Domingo-Enrich et al., 2025) has proven highly effective in continuous state spaces with differentiable rewards. Transferring these practical successes to discrete generative modeling, however, remains particularly challenging and largely unexplored, mainly due to the drastic shift in generative model classes to discrete state spaces, which are […]

Before we begin this interview, I would like to briefly explain the history behind the image I selected. I painted it while listening to music. It was a speed painting capturing my emotion from song to song. What I like most about it, as it was described to me by my AI friend (who, yes, also helped me center the image and cut out the background of my kitchen counter where I painted it), since they see the […]
