Step-level Optimization for Efficient Computer-use Agents

2026-04-29 · Jinbiao Wei, Kangqi Ni, Yilun Zhao, Guo Gan, Arman Cohan

General AI

Computer-use agents provide a promising path toward general software automation because they can interact directly with arbitrary graphical user interfaces instead of relying on brittle, application-specific integrations. Despite recent advances in benchmark performance, strong computer-use agents remain expensive and …

Compliance versus Sensibility: On the Reasoning Controllability in Large Language Models

2026-04-29 · Xingwei Tan, Marco Valentino, Mahmud Elahi Akhter, Yuxiang Zhou, Maria Liakata, Nikolaos Aletras

General AI

Large Language Models (LLMs) are known to acquire reasoning capabilities through shared inference patterns in pre-training data, which are further elicited via Chain-of-Thought (CoT) practices. However, whether fundamental reasoning patterns, such as induction, deduction, and abduction, can be decoupled from specific p…

Instruction-Guided Poetry Generation in Arabic and Its Dialects

2026-04-30 · Abdelrahman Sadallah, Kareem Elozeiri, Mervat Abassy, Rania Elbadry, Mohamed Anwar, Abed Alhakim Freihat, Preslav Nakov, Fajri Koto

General AI

Poetry has long been a central art form for Arabic speakers, serving as a powerful medium of expression and cultural identity. While modern Arabic speakers continue to value poetry, existing research on Arabic poetry within Large Language Models (LLMs) has primarily focused on analysis tasks such as interpretation or m…

ViPO: Visual Preference Optimization at Scale

2026-04-29 · Ming Li, Jie Wu, Justin Cui, Xiaojie Li, Rui Wang, Chen Chen

General AI

While preference optimization is crucial for improving visual generative models, how to effectively scale this paradigm remains largely unexplored. Current open-source preference datasets contain conflicting preference patterns, where winners excel in some dimensions but underperform in others. Naively optimizing on su…

Safety Drift After Fine-Tuning: Evidence from High-Stakes Domains

2026-04-27 · Emaan Bilal Khan, Amy Winecoff, Miranda Bogen, Dylan Hadfield-Menell

General AI

Foundation models are routinely fine-tuned for use in particular domains, yet safety assessments are typically conducted only on base models, implicitly assuming that safety properties persist through downstream adaptation. We test this assumption by analyzing the safety behavior of 100 models, including widely deploye…

Learning from Noisy Preferences: A Semi-Supervised Learning Approach to Direct Preference Optimization

2026-04-27 · Xinxin Liu, Ming Li, Zonglin Lyu, Yuzhang Shang, Chen Chen

General AI

Human visual preferences are inherently multi-dimensional, encompassing aesthetics, detail fidelity, and semantic alignment. However, existing datasets provide only single, holistic annotations, resulting in severe label noise: images that excel in some dimensions but are deficient in others are simply marked as winner…
