Achieving Expert-Level Agent from Foundation Model via Complexity Curriculum Reinforcement Learning with Synthetic Data

ICLR 2026poster

Large language model (LLM) agents exhibit strong mathematical problem-solving abilities and can even solve International Mathematical Olympiad (IMO) level problems with the assistance of formal proof systems. However, due to weak heuristics for auxiliary constructions, AI for geometry problem solvin…

Exploring Visual Pretraining for Learning Language Intelligence

CVPR 2026

While the most fundamental pretraining paradigm typically trains modality-specific models on their respective datasets, the Platonic Representation Hypothesis that representations eventually align across modalities as data and model scale suggests an intriguing possibility: large language models (LL

MindCopilot: Towards Formalizing and Evaluating Granular Human-LLM Co-Writing

IJCAI 2026

Recent writing assistants are increasingly shifting from passive, prompt-driven interaction to proactive, suggestion-based completion, which integrates localized continuations into the writing flow and reduces coordination burden. However, existing evaluations simply focus on output quality, failing

RIG: Synergizing Reasoning and Imagination in End-to-End Generalist Policy

ICLR 2026poster

Reasoning before action and imagining potential outcomes (i.e., world models) are essential for embodied agents operating in complex open-world environments. Yet, prior work either incorporates only one of these abilities in an end-to-end agent or integrates multiple specialized models into an agent…

The Imitation Game: Turing Machine Imitator is Length Generalizable Reasoner

ICLR 2026poster

Length generalization, the ability to solve problems of longer sequences than those observed during training, poses a core challenge of Transformer-based large language models (LLMs). Although existing studies have predominantly focused on data-driven approaches for particular arithmetic operations…

ThoughtFold: Folding Reasoning Chains via Introspective Preference Learning

ICML 2026poster

Large Reasoning Models (LRMs) have achieved remarkable progress thanks to Reinforcement Learning with Verifiable Rewards (RLVR) on Chain-of-Thoughts (CoTs). However, since long CoTs naturally contain trial and errors and mainstream RLVR approaches choose outcome-correct CoT trajectories for memoriza…

Are Your LLMs Capable of Stable Reasoning?

ACL 2025finding

The rapid advancement of large language models (LLMs) has shown remarkable progress in complex reasoning tasks. However, a significant disparity exists between benchmark performances and real-world applications. We attribute this gap primarily to current evaluation protocols and metrics, which inade…

MindSearch: Mimicking Human Minds Elicits Deep AI Searcher

ICLR 2025poster

Information seeking and integration is a complex cognitive task that consumes enormous time and effort. Inspired by the remarkable progress of Large Language Models, recent works attempt to solve this task by combining LLMs and search engines. However, these methods still obtain unsatisfying perform…

Semi-off-Policy Reinforcement Learning for Vision-Language Slow-Thinking Reasoning

NeurIPS 2025poster

Enhancing large vision-language models (LVLMs) with visual slow-thinking reasoning is crucial for solving complex multimodal tasks. However, since LVLMs are mainly trained with vision-language alignment, it is difficult to adopt on-policy reinforcement learning (RL) to develop the slow thinking abil…

Agent-FLAN: Designing Data and Methods of Effective Agent Tuning for Large Language Models

ACL 2024findings

Open-sourced Large Language Models (LLMs) have achieved great success in various NLP tasks, however, they are still far inferior to API-based models when acting as agents. How to integrate agent ability into general LLMs becomes a crucial and urgent problem.This paper first delivers three key observ…

AlchemistCoder: Harmonizing and Eliciting Code Capability by Hindsight Tuning on Multi-source Data

NeurIPS 2024poster

Open-source Large Language Models (LLMs) and their specialized variants, particularly Code LLMs, have recently delivered impressive performance. However, previous Code LLMs are typically fine-tuned on single-source data with limited quality and diversity, which may insufficiently elicit the potentia…

T-Eval: Evaluating the Tool Utilization Capability of Large Language Models Step by Step

ACL 2024long

Large language models (LLMs) have achieved remarkable performance on various NLP tasks and are augmented by tools for broader applications. Yet, how to evaluate and analyze the tool utilization capability of LLMs is still under-explored. In contrast to previous works that evaluate models holisticall…
