Headroom-Drift Replay: A Primitive for Principled Replay Control in GRPO
The paper introduces Headroom-Drift Replay, a group-level replay control primitive for GRPO that separates reuse into two decisions: Headroom ranks stored groups by remaining lear…
Why it matters The method directly targets the cost bottleneck of repeated fresh rollout generation in agentic RL, where environment interaction…Towards Numerical TOHTN Planning with SMT-based HTN-SAT Encoding
A paper titled 'Towards Numerical TOHTN Planning with SMT-based HTN-SAT Encoding' was published on arXiv on 2026-09-03. It investigates numerical Totally-Ordered HTN (TOHTN) plann…
Why it matters This research may influence automated planning systems that require numerical reasoning, such as logistics, robotics, and resourc…RATL: Learning from Retrieved Residuals for Robust Multivariate Time-Series Forecasting
RATL is a plug-in residual-retrieval and feedback-correction method for multivariate time-series forecasting. It freezes a base forecaster to construct retrieval keys and turns hi…
Why it matters The plug-in nature of RATL implies it can be applied to existing forecasting models without retraining the base model, potentiall…Speak for Me: Giving LLMs the Situational Awareness to Participate in a Meeting
CAPA (Collaborative Agent Predictive Architecture) is introduced for online meeting delegation. On 137 AMI meetings, CAPA reduces the silence rate from 51.4% to 2.5% and doubles c…
Why it matters This research addresses a key limitation in meeting AI agents: knowing when to speak. Reducing silence rate from 51.4% to 2.5% su…Value-Preserving Architectures for Agentic AI Systems
A research paper on arXiv (cs.AI) investigates how architectural design choices in LLM-based multi-agent systems can promote human-centered values such as privacy, fairness, and s…
Why it matters As agentic AI systems are deployed in socio-technical contexts, organizations will need to adopt architectural patterns that embe…Lose the Order, Keep the Hierarchy: Deordering HTN Plans
A paper titled 'Lose the Order, Keep the Hierarchy: Deordering HTN Plans' was published on arXiv on 2026-09-03. It adapts two classical planning deordering techniques to Hierarchi…
Why it matters HTN planning is used in domains requiring hierarchical task decomposition, such as robotics, manufacturing, and logistics. Improv…GraFT: A Training-Free Framework for Spatial Reasoning in Multimodal Large Language Models via 3D Scene Graphs
GraFT is a training-free framework that supplies missing 3D structure through a compact 3D scene graph (3DSG). It provides three spatial reasoning capabilities: deterministic geom…
Why it matters Training-free methods reduce the barrier to improving spatial reasoning in deployed MLLMs, potentially accelerating adoption in r…Proactive Service Agents: A Unified Decision Framework, Methods, and Evaluation
A survey paper proposes an operational definition of proactive service agents centered on initiative, formulating the problem as a partially observable sequential decision process…
Why it matters The survey highlights a shift from reactive to proactive AI agents, which could enable new service models where agents initiate a…No additional verified Event happened in this window beyond the three briefs above.
