Despite strong medical benchmark accuracy, LLMs can exhibit severe multi-turn sycophancy in clinical dialogue, abandoning initial correct diagnosis under escalating pressure. We propose Med-Stress , a targeted stress test framework that evaluates belief stability under escalating pressure. Across...

Games offer a compelling paradigm for developing general reasoning capabilities in language models, as they naturally demand strategic planning, probabilistic inference, and adaptive decision-making.

Effective memory management is essential for large language model agents to navigate long-horizon tasks. Recent research has explored using Reinforcement Learning to develop specialized memory manager agents. However, existing approaches rely on final task performance as the primary reward, which...

Group-Relative Policy Optimization (GRPO) has emerged as an efficient paradigm for aligning Large Language Models (LLMs), yet its efficacy is primarily confined to domains with verifiable ground truths. Extending GRPO to open-domain settings remains a critical challenge, as unconstrained generati...

Large Reasoning Models (LRMs) excel at complex problem-solving but frequently overlook specific instruction constraints. Existing alignment methods struggle to balance general reasoning with instruction-following (IF), hindered by dependency on teacher models, reward hacking, and reasoning-answer...

Large Language Models (LLMs) and Large Vision-Language Models (LVLMs) demonstrate strong reasoning capabilities, yet their performance in English significantly outperforms that in low-resource languages, raising fairness concerns in multilingual applications. Existing approaches either rely on co...

The increasing context window greatly extends the capabilities of large language models, but on the other hand, it incurs an unaffordable memory overhead and computational latency due to the increasing Key-Value (KV) cache size. Recent KV cache compression methods manage to reduce the cache size...

Long Chain-of-Thought (LCoT), achieved by Reinforcement Learning with Verifiable Rewards (RLVR), has proven effective in enhancing the reasoning capabilities of Large Language Models (LLMs). However, reasoning in current LLMs is primarily generated as plain text, where performing semantic evaluat...

Emotional Support Conversation requires not only affective expression but also grounded instrumental support to provide trustworthy guidance. However, existing ESC systems and benchmarks largely focus on affective support in text-only settings, overlooking how external tools can enable factual gr...

Temporal Knowledge Graph (TKG) forecasting faces significant challenges due to distribution shifts and poor inductive generalization in parametric models.

In this work, we introduce x1, a family of reasoning models that can adaptively reason in an advantageous language on a per-instan...

In recent years, Large Language Models (LLMs) have made significant progress in automated psychological counseling. However, current research focuses on single-session counseling, which doesn’t represent real-world scenarios. In practice, psychological counseling is a process, not a one-time even...

With the evolution of large language models (LLMs), their robustness against individual simple biases has been enhanced.
