CultureScope: A Dimensional Lens for Probing Cultural Understanding in LLMs

arXiv:2509.16188v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: As large language models (LLMs) are increasingly deployed in diverse cultural environments, evaluating their cultural understanding capability has become essential for ensuring trustworthy and culturally aligned applications. However, most existing benchmarks lack comprehensiveness and are…

Pre-Forgettable Models: Prompt Learning as a Native Mechanism for Unlearning

arXiv:2509.15230v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Foundation models have transformed multimedia analysis by enabling robust and transferable representations across diverse modalities and tasks. However, their static deployment conflicts with growing societal and regulatory demands — particularly the need to unlearn specific…

World Modelling Improves Language Model Agents

arXiv:2506.02918v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Tool use in stateful environments presents unique challenges for large language models (LLMs), where existing test-time compute strategies relying on repeated trials in the environment are impractical. We propose dynamics modelling (DyMo), a method that…

Synthetic bootstrapped pretraining

arXiv:2509.15248v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We introduce Synthetic Bootstrapped Pretraining (SBP), a language model (LM) pretraining procedure that first learns a model of relations between documents from the pretraining dataset and then leverages it to synthesize a vast new corpus…

Causal Reasoning Elicits Controllable 3D Scene Generation

arXiv:2509.15249v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Existing 3D scene generation methods often struggle to model the complex logical dependencies and physical constraints between objects, limiting their ability to adapt to dynamic and realistic environments. We propose CausalStruct, a novel framework that…
