Better LLM Reasoning via Dual-Play

The introduction of ATLAS (AGI-Oriented Testbed for Logical Application in Science) marks a significant advancement in evaluating Large Language Models (LLMs). This new benchmark addresses the limitations of existing high-difficulty assessments, which often lack interdisciplinary focus and are prone to data contamination. Comprising around 800 original problems across seven scientific fields, ATLAS aims to enhance the fidelity of evaluations in real-world scientific reasoning.

ConInstruct is a newly introduced benchmark aimed at evaluating the conflict detection and resolution capabilities of Large Language Models (LLMs). While previous studies have focused on how well LLMs follow user instructions, they often neglect scenarios with conflicting constraints. The benchmark assesses LLMs' performance in detecting and resolving such conflicts, revealing that proprietary models generally perform well, with DeepSeek-R1 and Claude-4.5-Sonnet achieving the highest F1-scores.

The integration of Large Language Models (LLMs) with 3D vision is revolutionizing robotic perception and autonomy. This approach enhances robotic sensing technologies, allowing machines to understand and interact with complex environments using natural language and spatial awareness. The review discusses the foundational principles of LLMs and 3D data, examines critical 3D sensing technologies, and highlights advancements in scene understanding, text-to-3D generation, and embodied agents, while addressing the challenges faced in this evolving field.

Large Language Models (LLMs) are being enhanced for autonomous driving with the introduction of TLS-Assist, a modular layer that improves traffic light and sign recognition. This innovation addresses the current limitations of LLM-based driving agents, which often struggle to detect critical safety objects. TLS-Assist translates detections into structured natural language messages, ensuring that safety cues are prioritized. The framework is adaptable to various camera setups and has been evaluated in a closed-loop environment using the LangAuto benchmark in CARLA.

The article introduces DeepEL, a new framework for Entity Linking (EL) that integrates Large Language Models (LLMs) at every stage of the EL process. This approach aims to enhance natural language understanding by improving entity disambiguation and input representation. Previous methods often applied LLMs in isolation, limiting their effectiveness. DeepEL addresses this by proposing a self-validation mechanism that leverages global context, thus aiming for greater accuracy and robustness in entity linking tasks.

This study analyzes the transformative role of Large Language Models (LLMs) in research and development (R&D) processes. By automating knowledge discovery, enhancing hypothesis generation, and fostering collaboration within innovation ecosystems, LLMs significantly improve research efficiency and effectiveness. The research highlights how LLMs facilitate more adaptable and informed R&D workflows, ultimately accelerating innovation cycles and reducing time-to-market for groundbreaking ideas.

Supervised Fine-Tuning (SFT) is essential for adapting Large Language Models (LLMs) to specialized fields like medical reasoning. Current SFT methods often utilize unfiltered datasets, which can be redundant and of low quality, leading to high computational costs and poor performance. This study introduces a new data selection strategy called Difficulty-Influence Quadrant (DIQ), which aims to optimize sample selection based on both difficulty and optimization utility, enhancing the efficiency of medical reasoning applications.

The paper titled 'Agent-R1: Training Powerful LLM Agents with End-to-End Reinforcement Learning' discusses the potential of Large Language Models (LLMs) in creating agents that can interact with their environment to solve complex problems. It highlights the challenges in applying Reinforcement Learning (RL) to LLMs and the lack of tailored frameworks for training these agents. The authors propose a systematic extension of the Markov Decision Process (MDP) framework to define key components of LLM agents and introduce Agent-R1, a flexible training framework.
