Large language models (LLMs) aligned for safety often suffer from over-refusal—the tendency to reject seemingly toxic or benign prompts by misclassifying them as toxic. This behavior undermines models' helpfulness and restricts usability in sensitive or nuanced contexts. While prior work has propose…
Navigation is a fundamental capability in embodied AI, representing the intelligence required to perceive and interact within physical environments. To achieve such intelligence, recent advanced works leverage Vision-Language Models (VLMs), which demonstrate strong generalizability and possess a wel…
Sequential LLM agents fail on long-horizon planning with hard constraints like budgets and diversity requirements. As planning progresses and context grows, these agents drift from global constraints. We propose HiMAP-Travel, a hierarchical multi-agent framework that splits planning into strategic c…
Household environments present one of the most common, impactful yet challenging application domains for robotics. Within household scenarios, manipulating deformable objects is particularly difficult, both in simulation and real-world execution, due to varied categories and shapes, complex dynamics…
Large language models (LLMs) have shown remarkable emergent capabilities, transforming the execution of functional tasks by leveraging external tools for complex problems that require specialized processing or up-to-date data. While existing research expands LLMs access to diverse tools (e.g., progr…
Training generally capable agents in complex environments is a challenging task that involves identifying "right" environments at the training stage. Recent research has highlighted the potential of the Unsupervised Environment Design framework, which generates environment instances/levels adaptivel…
Large language models (LLMs) have demonstrated impressive task-solving capabilities through prompting techniques and system designs, including solving planning tasks (e.g., math proofs, basic travel planning) when sufficient data is available online and used during pre-training. However, for plannin…
Unsupervised Environment Design (UED) formalizes the problem of autocurricula through interactive training between a teacher agent and a student agent. The teacher generates new training environments with high learning potential, curating an adaptive curriculum that strengthens the student's ability…
Opioid related aberrant behaviors (ORABs) present novel risk factors for opioid overdose. This paper introduces a novel biomedical natural language processing benchmark dataset named ODD, for ORAB Detection Dataset. ODD is an expert-annotated dataset designed to identify ORABs from patients’ EHR not…
To train generalizable Reinforcement Learning (RL) agents, researchers recently proposed the Unsupervised Environment Design (UED) framework, in which a teacher agent creates a very large number of training environments and a student agent trains on the experiences in these environments to be robust…
Agent decision making using Reinforcement Learning (RL) heavily relies on either a model or simulator of the environment (e.g., moving in an 8x8 maze with three rooms, playing Chess on an 8x8 board). Due to this dependence, small changes in the environment (e.g., positions of obstacles in the maze,…
The decomposition of multi-subject fMRI data using rank-(L,L,1,1) block term decomposition (BTD) can preserve higher-way data structure and is more robust to noise effects by decomposing shared spatial maps (SMs) into a product of two rank-L loading matrices. However, since the number of whole-brain…
