Reasoning errors can propagate into later decisions and memory. This survey synthesizes 312 papers and first-party reports on text-based reasoning hallucinations around three questions: what evidence is observable, what study designs establish, and which corrective actions the evidence supports. UIPCA records unsupport …
We connect the spurious-reward paradox to a model's reachability and propose random-reward reinforcement learning (RL) as a useful tool for the probing enterprise, addressing a decade-long debate over what probing performance actually reveals about a model. There are two prevailing explanations for the surprising findi …
On-policy self-distillation uses a model as its own teacher to provide dense supervision for reasoning, often through reference-solution conditioning. Providing privileged information does not by itself ensure effective token-level supervision throughout long responses. We introduce Activation-Conditioned Self-Distilla …
On-policy distillation (OPD) trains a student to match a teacher's next-token distributions on student-generated trajectories. However, privileged information supplied to the teacher for OPD training may contain sensitive data. Whether the student leaks private information about the records supplied to the teacher duri …
We study whether a manually specified runtime supervisor can correct recurring failures of an existing end-to-end parking policy in a fixed CARLA parking lot. The vision-based Transformer architecture is inherited from Yang et al.; our contribution is a timed, rule-based Parametric Safety Shield (PSS) applied to its co …
We present S2Planner, a trajectory planner that combines three front-facing cameras with ego-motion history and the current driving command. A fine-tuned DINOv3 backbone and a Spatial Tuning Adapter produce multi-scale image features; a coarse-to-fine decoder then uses trajectory self-attention and camera-projected cro …
