Autonomous agents based on large language models (LLMs) are rapidly evolving to handle multi-turn tasks, but ensuring their trustworthiness remains a critical challenge. A fundamental pillar of this trustworthiness is calibration, which refers to an agent’s ability to express confidence that reli...

Large language models (LLMs) exhibit uneven performance across languages. In language-specific applications, practitioners often rely on target-language corpora or cross-lingual transfer to achieve better performance. However, traditional linguistic typology, commonly used as a transfer language...

Training language models and examining their linguistic behaviors have been a common protocol in computational linguistics for studying linguistic phenomena and modeling human language processing. However, work in this area is often limited to proof-of-concept demonstrations with arbitrary model...

Code-switching is a pervasive linguistic phenomenon in global communication, yet modern information retrieval systems remain predominantly designed for, and evaluated within, monolingual contexts. To bridge this critical disconnect, we present a holistic study dedicated to code-switching IR. We i...

As large language model agents tackle increasingly complex long-horizon tasks, effective post-training becomes critical. Prior work faces fundamental challenges: outcome-only rewards fail to precisely attribute credit to intermediate steps, estimated step-level rewards introduce systematic noise,...
