Hallucinated information can propagate through multi-stage LLM systems and become part of the context for subsequent reasoning. Existing studies of post-hallucination reasoning (PHR) mainly characterize changes in final outcomes and aggregate reasoning dynamics, leaving how models resolve hallucinated premises at the r …

Test-time compute has become a central way to improve code generation: systems sample multiple candidate programs and use verifier-visible evidence to select the final output. This paradigm implicitly assumes that the verifier provides a corrective signal independent from the generator. We challenge this assumption und …

Language-aligned and self-supervised visual encoders offer complementary strengths in semantic abstraction and spatial detail. Harnessing this complementarity requires enriching local features while retaining distinctions between semantically related patches. We introduce PAIQ, a patch-aligned semantic injection framew …
