Deep Research Arena: The First Exam of LLMs’ Research Abilities via Seminar-Grounded Tasks

AAAI 2026technical

Deep research agents have attracted growing attention for their potential to orchestrate multi-stage research workflows, spanning literature synthesis, methodological design, and empirical verification. Despite these strides, evaluating their research capability faithfully is rather challenging due

Conformal Online Learning of Deep Koopman Linear Embeddings

NeurIPS 2025poster

We introduce Conformal Online Learning of Koopman embeddings (COLoKe), a novel framework for adaptively updating Koopman-invariant representations of nonlinear dynamical systems from streaming data. Our modeling approach combines deep feature learning with multistep prediction consistency in the lif…

MOOSE-Chem2: Exploring LLM Limits in Fine-Grained Scientific Hypothesis Discovery via Hierarchical Search

NeurIPS 2025poster

Large language models (LLMs) have shown promise in automating scientific hypothesis generation, yet existing approaches primarily yield coarse-grained hypotheses lacking critical methodological and experimental details. We introduce and formally define the new task of fine-grained scientific hypothe…

MOOSE-Chem: Large Language Models for Rediscovering Unseen Chemistry Scientific Hypotheses

ICLR 2025poster

Scientific discovery contributes largely to the prosperity of human society, and recent progress shows that LLMs could potentially catalyst the process. However, it is still unclear whether LLMs can discover novel and valid hypotheses in chemistry. In this work, we investigate this main research que…
