Rubric Rating Llm As Judge Coding
  • However, the dominant LLM-as-a-Judge paradigm relies on the strong reasoning capabilities of large models, while alternative approaches require reference responses or explicit rubrics, limiting flexibility and broader accessibility.
  • Evaluations across four domains using 13 small language models show that FLIP outperforms LLM-as-a-Judge baselines by an average of 79.6%.
Zooming without Zooming: Region-to-Image Distillation for Fine-Grained Multimodal Perception

Lai Wei, Liangbo He, Jun Lan, Lingzhong Dong, Yutong Cai, Siyuan Li · Feb 12, 2026 · Citations: 0

Automatic Metrics Coding
  • To address this, we propose Region-to-Image Distillation, which transforms zooming from an inference-time tool into a training-time primitive, thereby internalizing the benefits of agentic zooming into a single forward pass of an MLLM.
  • To rigorously evaluate this capability, we further present ZoomBench, a hybrid-annotated benchmark of 845 VQA data spanning six fine-grained perceptual dimensions, together with a dual-view protocol that quantifies the global--regional…
Native Reasoning Models: Training Language Models to Reason on Unverifiable Data

Yuanfu Wang, Zhixuan Liu, Xiangtian Li, Chaochao Lu, Chao Yang · Feb 12, 2026 · Citations: 0

Demonstrations MathCoding
  • The prevailing paradigm for training large reasoning models--combining Supervised Fine-Tuning (SFT) with Reinforcement Learning with Verifiable Rewards (RLVR)--is fundamentally constrained by its reliance on high-quality, human-annotated…
  • This dependency incurs significant data-collection costs, risks embedding human cognitive biases, and confines the reinforcement learning stage to objectively assessable domains like mathematics and coding, leaving a wide range of…
Evaluating Alignment of Behavioral Dispositions in LLMs

Amir Taubenfeld, Zorik Gekhman, Lior Nezry, Omri Feldman, Natalie Harris, Shashir Reddy · Feb 11, 2026 · Citations: 0

Pairwise Preference Coding
  • We introduce STAR, a framework for studying how closely the dispositions expressed by LLMs align with those of humans.
  • Across 25 LLMs, we find that (1) when human consensus is high, frontier models can fail to reflect it in 15-20% of cases, and smaller models fail at substantially higher rates; (2) when humans disagree, LLM recommendations are substantially…
Agent-Diff: Benchmarking LLM Agents on Enterprise API Tasks via Code Execution with State-Diff-Based Evaluation

Hubert M. Pysklo, Artem Zhuravel, Patrick D. Watson · Feb 11, 2026 · Citations: 0

Automatic Metrics Coding
  • We present Agent-Diff, a novel benchmarking framework for evaluating agentic Large Language Models (LLMs) on real-world productivity software API tasks via code execution.
  • In addition, we evaluate the robustness of the framework with ablation experiments to assess the contribution of access to API documentation on benchmark performance.
Step 3.5 Flash: Open Frontier-Level Intelligence with 11B Active Parameters

Ailin Huang, Ang Li, Aobo Kong, Bin Wang, Binxing Jiao, Bo Dong · Feb 11, 2026 · Citations: 0

Pairwise Preference MathCoding
  • We introduce Step 3.5 Flash, a sparse Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) model that bridges frontier-level agentic intelligence and computational efficiency.
  • Step 3.5 Flash demonstrates strong performance across agent, coding, and math tasks, achieving 85.4% on IMO-AnswerBench, 86.4% on LiveCodeBench-v6 (2024.08-2025.05), 88.2% on tau2-Bench, 69.0% on BrowseComp (with context management), and…
Document Reconstruction Unlocks Scalable Long-Context RLVR

Yao Xiao, Lei Wang, Yue Deng, Guanzheng Chen, Ziqi Jin, Jung-jae Kim · Feb 9, 2026 · Citations: 0

Rubric Rating Automatic Metrics Coding
  • However, it often relies on gold-standard answers or explicit evaluation rubrics provided by powerful teacher models or human experts, which are costly and time-consuming.
  • In this work, we investigate unsupervised approaches to enhance the long-context capabilities of LLMs, eliminating the need for heavy human annotations or teacher models' supervision.
SEMA: Simple yet Effective Learning for Multi-Turn Jailbreak Attacks

Mingqian Feng, Xiaodong Liu, Weiwei Yang, Jialin Song, Xuekai Zhu, Chenliang Xu · Feb 6, 2026 · Citations: 0

Pairwise PreferenceRed Team Coding
  • Multi-turn jailbreaks capture the real threat model for safety-aligned chatbots, where single-turn attacks are merely a special case.
  • Across multiple datasets, victim models, and jailbreak judges, our method achieves state-of-the-art (SOTA) attack success rates (ASR), outperforming all single-turn baselines, manually scripted and template-driven multi-turn baselines, as…
IESR:Efficient MCTS-Based Modular Reasoning for Text-to-SQL with Large Language Models

Tao Liu, Jiafan Lu, Bohan Yu, Pengcheng Wu, Liu Haixin, Guoyu Xu · Feb 5, 2026 · Citations: 0

Automatic Metrics MathCoding
  • Although current methods perform well on benchmarks like BIRD and Spider, they struggle with complex reasoning, domain knowledge, and hypothetical queries, and remain costly in enterprise deployment.
  • Experimental results demonstrate that IESR achieves state-of-the-art performance on the complex reasoning benchmark LogicCat (24.28 EX) and the Archer dataset (37.28 EX) using only compact lightweight models without fine-tuning.
Faithful Bi-Directional Model Steering via Distribution Matching and Distributed Interchange Interventions

Yuntai Bao, Xuhong Zhang, Jintao Chen, Ge Su, Yuxiang Cai, Hao Peng · Feb 5, 2026 · Citations: 0

Pairwise Preference Coding
  • We hypothesize that this is because effective steering requires the faithful identification of internal model mechanisms, not the enforcement of external preferences.
  • On AxBench, a large-scale model steering benchmark, we show that CDAS does not always outperform preference-optimization methods but may benefit more from increased model scale.
Scaling Small Agents Through Strategy Auctions

Lisa Alazraki, William F. Shen, Yoram Bachrach, Akhil Mathur · Feb 2, 2026 · Citations: 0

Automatic Metrics Coding
  • In this work, we empirically show that small agents' performance fails to scale with task complexity on deep search and coding tasks, and we introduce Strategy Auctions for Workload Efficiency (SALE), an agent framework inspired by…
  • Across deep search and coding tasks of varying complexity, SALE reduces reliance on the largest agent by 52%, lowers overall cost by 35%, and consistently improves upon the largest agent's pass@1 with only a negligible overhead beyond…
Vision-DeepResearch Benchmark: Rethinking Visual and Textual Search for Multimodal Large Language Models

Yu Zeng, Wenxuan Huang, Zhen Fang, Shuang Chen, Yufan Shen, Yishuo Cai · Feb 2, 2026 · Citations: 0

Expert Verification Automatic Metrics Coding
  • However, evaluating these visual and textual search abilities is still difficult, and existing benchmarks have two major limitations.
  • First, existing benchmarks are not visual search-centric: answers that should require visual search are often leaked through cross-textual cues in the text questions or can be inferred from the prior world knowledge in current MLLMs.

  • Our evaluation reveals fundamental limitations of current systems: multi-hop reasoning collapses under multi-party attribution even with oracle evidence (26% accuracy), temporal reasoning fails without explicit version semantics beyond…
Decoupling Strategy and Execution in Task-Focused Dialogue via Goal-Oriented Preference Optimization

Jingyi Xu, Xingyu Ren, Zhoupeng Shou, Yumeng Zhang, Zhiqiang You · Jan 24, 2026 · Citations: 0

Pairwise Preference Automatic Metrics Coding
  • To address this, we propose Goal-Oriented Preference Optimization (GOPO), a hierarchical reinforcement learning framework that decouples strategy planning from response generation via an Expert Agent and a Customer Service Agent.
  • We evaluate GOPO on public benchmarks and e-commerce customer service datasets, and introduce Task-focused Sequential Engagement (TSE), a sequence-level metric derived from real e-commerce interaction data.
IntelliAsk: Learning to Ask High-Quality Research Questions via RLVR

Karun Sharma, Vidushee Vats, Shengzhi Li, Yuxiang Wang, Zhongtian Sun, Prayag Tiwari · Jan 23, 2026 · Citations: 0

Pairwise PreferenceExpert Verification Human Eval Coding
  • Peer review relies on substantive, evidence-based questions, yet current LLMs generate surface-level queries that perform worse than human reviewer questions in expert evaluation.
  • To address this gap, we curate a high-quality dataset of reviewer questions from OpenReview and conduct a human preference study where expert annotators evaluate question-paper pairs across three dimensions: effort, evidence, and grounding.
