Humans inherently understand the physical world through an active process. When sensory evidence is insufficient to infer physical properties, we naturally interact with the environment by deciding what information is missing, how to acquire it, and when sufficient evidence has been obtained. In stark contrast, existin …
Large language models often solve independent problems in the same conversation. Can computation from earlier problems help them solve new ones? To answer this question, we first conduct preliminary experiments showing that retained history can raise or lower later-turn accuracy, even within the same domain. To underst …
Diffusion Large Language Models (dLLMs) have emerged as an efficient alternative to autoregressive models, yet aligning them via Reinforcement Learning (RL) requires likelihood surrogates estimated from masked reconstruction subproblems under a small Monte Carlo budget per rollout. Existing methods construct these subp …
