Data-Efficient Symbolic Regression via Foundation Model Distillation arXiv:2508.19487v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Discovering interpretable mathematical equations from observed data (a.k.a. equation discovery or symbolic regression) is a cornerstone of scientific discovery, enabling transparent modeling of physical, biological, and economic systems.…
A Survey on Training-free Alignment of Large Language Models arXiv:2508.09016v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: The alignment of large language models (LLMs) aims to ensure their outputs adhere to human values, ethical standards, and legal norms. Traditional alignment methods often rely…
PoolFlip: A Multi-Agent Reinforcement Learning Security Environment for Cyber Defense arXiv:2508.19488v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Cyber defense requires automating defensive decision-making under stealthy, deceptive, and continuously evolving adversarial strategies. The FlipIt game provides a foundational framework for modeling interactions between…
Bootstrapping Learned Cost Models with Synthetic SQL Queries arXiv:2508.19807v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Having access to realistic workloads for a given database instance is extremely important to enable stress and vulnerability testing, as well as to optimize for cost and…
Putnam-AXIOM: A Functional and Static Benchmark for Measuring Higher Level Mathematical Reasoning in LLMs arXiv:2508.08292v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Current mathematical reasoning benchmarks for large language models (LLMs) are approaching saturation, with some achieving > 90% accuracy, and are increasingly…
From Tabula Rasa to Emergent Abilities: Discovering Robot Skills via Real-World Unsupervised Quality-Diversity arXiv:2508.19172v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Autonomous skill discovery aims to enable robots to acquire diverse behaviors without explicit supervision. Learning such behaviors directly on physical hardware remains…
Honor launches the world’s thinnest foldable in Europe Honor is bringing the Magic V5 — the world’s thinnest foldable phone, though only just — to Europe, where it’s available to order now following its Chinese launch last month. It’s joined…
Honor’s Magic V5 is the thinnest foldable yet, but that’s not why it matters Honor’s Magic V5 is the thinnest book-style foldable in the world, but you probably couldn’t tell. It’s just 0.1mm thinner – that’s four-thousandths of an inch…
