arXiv:2603.03338v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Many leading AI researchers expect AI development to exceed the transformative impact of all previous technological revolutions. This belief is based on the idea that AI will be able to automate the process of AI research itself, leading to a positive feedback loop. In August and September of 2025, we interviewed 25 leading researchers from frontier AI labs and academia, including participants from Google DeepMind, OpenAI, Anthropic, Meta, UC Berkeley, Princeton, and Stanford […]

arXiv:2603.03336v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Rankings derived from pairwise comparisons are central to many economic and computational systems. In the context of large language models (LLMs), rankings are typically constructed from human preference data and presented as leaderboards that guide deployment decisions. However, existing approaches rely on point estimates, implicitly treating rankings as fixed objects despite substantial estimation noise and context-dependent performance variation. Acting on such rankings can lead to misallocation and welfare loss when apparent differences are […]

arXiv:2603.03335v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) exhibit a wide range of capabilities, including mathematical reasoning, code generation, and linguistic behaviors. We show that many capabilities are highly localized to small subsets of attention heads within Transformer architectures. Zeroing out as few as five task-specific heads can degrade performance by up to $65%$ on standard benchmarks measuring the capability of interest, while largely preserving performance on unrelated tasks. We introduce a compressed sensing based method that […]

arXiv:2603.03334v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The evaluation of Large Language Models (LLMs) on mathematical reasoning has largely focused on elementary problems, competition-style questions, or formal theorem proving, leaving graduate-level and computational mathematics relatively underexplored. We introduce CompMath-MCQ, a new benchmark dataset for assessing LLMs on advanced mathematical reasoning in a multiple-choice setting. The dataset consists of 1{,}500 originally authored questions by professors of graduate-level courses, covering topics including Linear Algebra, Numerical Optimization, Vector Calculus, Probability, and Python-based scientific […]

arXiv:2603.03333v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Speculative decoding accelerates large language model inference by proposing tokens with a lightweight draft model and selectively accepting them using a target model. This work introduces DropMatch, a novel approach that matches draft tokens to the predictive distribution of the target model via Monte Carlo dropout applied exclusively to the LM head, enabling sampling-based acceptance decisions. By generating multiple decoding paths, our method forms an empirical token distribution against which draft tokens are […]

arXiv:2603.03332v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Chain-of-Thought (CoT) prompting has emerged as a foundational technique for eliciting reasoning from Large Language Models (LLMs), yet the robustness of this approach to corruptions in intermediate reasoning steps remains poorly understood. This paper presents a comprehensive empirical evaluation of LLM robustness to a structured taxonomy of 5 CoT perturbation types: textit{MathError, UnitConversion, Sycophancy, SkippedSteps,} and textit{ExtraSteps}. We evaluate 13 models spanning three orders of magnitude in parameter count (3B to 1.5Tfootnote{Assumed parameter […]

arXiv:2603.03331v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Photoplethysmography (PPG) is a widely used non-invasive sensing modality for continuous cardiovascular and physiological monitoring across clinical, laboratory, and wearable settings. While existing PPG datasets support a broad range of downstream tasks, they typically provide supervision in the form of numerical measurements or task-specific labels, limiting their suitability for language-based physiological reasoning and multimodal foundation models. In this work, we introduce PulseLM, a large-scale PPG-text dataset designed to bridge raw PPG waveforms and […]

arXiv:2603.03330v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) often present answers with high apparent confidence despite lacking an explicit mechanism for reasoning about certainty or truth. While existing benchmarks primarily evaluate single-turn accuracy, truthfulness or confidence calibration, they do not capture how models behave when their responses are challenged in interactive settings. We introduce the Certainty Robustness Benchmark, a two-turn evaluation framework that measures how LLMs balance stability and adaptability under self-challenging prompts such as uncertainty (“Are […]

arXiv:2603.03329v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Despite significant strides in language models in the last few years, when used as agents, such models often try to perform actions that are not just suboptimal for a given state, but are strictly prohibited by the external environment. For example, in the recent Kaggle GameArena chess competition, 78% of Gemini-2.5-Flash losses were attributed to illegal moves. Often people manually write “harnesses” around LLMs to prevent such failures. In this paper, we demonstrate […]

arXiv:2603.03328v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Language exhibits inherent structures, a property that explains both language acquisition and language change. Given this characteristic, we expect language models to manifest internal structures as well. While interpretability research has investigated the components of language models, existing approaches focus on local inter-token relationships within layers or modules (e.g., Multi-Head Attention), leaving global inter-layer relationships largely overlooked. To address this gap, we introduce StructLens, an analytical framework designed to reveal how internal structures […]
