arXiv:2604.03340v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Latent action learning infers pseudo-action labels from visual transitions, providing an approach to leverage internet-scale video for embodied AI. However, most methods learn latent actions without structural priors that encode the additive, compositional structure of physical motion. As a result, latents often entangle irrelevant scene details or information about future observations with true state changes and miscalibrate motion magnitude. We introduce Additively Compositional Latent Action Model (AC-LAM), which enforces scene-wise additive composition structure over short horizons on the latent action space. These AC constraints encourage simple algebraic structure in the latent action space~(identity, inverse, cycle consistency) and suppress information that does not compose additively. Empirically, AC-LAM learns more structured, motion-specific, and displacement-calibrated latent actions and provides stronger supervision for downstream policy learning, outperforming state-of-the-art LAMs across simulated and real-world tabletop tasks.

arXiv:2604.01754v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Mathematical reasoning is a hallmark of human intelligence, and whether large language models (LLMs) can meaningfully perform it remains a central question in artificial intelligence and cognitive science. As LLMs are increasingly integrated into scientific workflows, rigorous evaluation of their mathematical capabilities becomes a practical necessity. Existing benchmarks are limited by synthetic settings and data contamination. We present LiveMathematicianBench, a dynamic multiple-choice benchmark for research-level mathematical reasoning built from recent arXiv papers published after model training cutoffs. By grounding evaluation in newly published theorems, it provides a realistic testbed beyond memorized patterns. The benchmark introduces a thirteen-category logical taxonomy of theorem types (e.g., implication, equivalence, existence, uniqueness), enabling fine-grained evaluation across reasoning forms. It employs a proof-sketch-guided distractor pipeline that uses high-level proof strategies to construct plausible but invalid answer choices reflecting misleading proof directions, increasing sensitivity to genuine understanding over surface-level matching. We also introduce a substitution-resistant mechanism to distinguish answer recognition from substantive reasoning. Evaluation shows the benchmark is far from saturated: Gemini-3.1-pro-preview, the best model, achieves only 43.5%. Under substitution-resistant evaluation, accuracy drops sharply: GPT-5.4 scores highest at 30.6%, while Gemini-3.1-pro-preview falls to 17.6%, below the 20% random baseline. A dual-mode protocol reveals that proof-sketch access yields consistent accuracy gains, suggesting models can leverage high-level proof strategies for reasoning. Overall, LiveMathematicianBench offers a scalable, contamination-resistant testbed for studying research-level mathematical reasoning in LLMs.

arXiv:2603.21597v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Modern clinical practice increasingly depends on reasoning over heterogeneous, evolving, and incomplete patient data. Although recent advances in multimodal foundation models have improved performance on various clinical tasks, most existing models remain static, opaque, and poorly aligned with real-world clinical workflows. We present Cerebra, an interactive multi-agent AI team that coordinates specialized agents for EHR, clinical notes, and medical imaging analysis. These outputs are synthesized into a clinician-facing dashboard that combines visual analytics with a conversational interface, enabling clinicians to interrogate predictions and contextualize risk at the point of care. Cerebra supports privacy-preserving deployment by operating on structured representations and remains robust when modalities are incomplete. We evaluated Cerebra using a massive multi-institutional dataset spanning 3 million patients from four independent healthcare systems. Cerebra consistently outperformed both state-of-the-art single-modality models and large multimodal language model baselines. In dementia risk prediction, it achieved AUROCs up to 0.80, compared with 0.74 for the strongest single-modality model and 0.68 for language model baselines. For dementia diagnosis, it achieved an AUROC of 0.86, and for survival prediction, a C-index of 0.81. In a reader study with experienced physicians, Cerebra significantly improved expert performance, increasing accuracy by 17.5 percentage points in prospective dementia risk estimation. These results demonstrate Cerebra's potential for interpretable, robust decision support in clinical care.

arXiv:2603.03482v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Interactive world models continually generate video by responding to a user's actions, enabling open-ended generation capabilities. However, existing models typically lack a 3D representation of the environment, meaning 3D consistency must be implicitly learned from data, and spatial memory is restricted to limited temporal context windows. This results in an unrealistic user experience and presents significant obstacles to down-stream tasks such as training agents. To address this, we present PERSIST, a new paradigm of world model which simulates the evolution of a latent 3D scene: environment, camera, and renderer. This allows us to synthesize new frames with persistent spatial memory and consistent geometry. Both quantitative metrics and a qualitative user study show substantial improvements in spatial memory, 3D consistency, and long-horizon stability over existing methods, enabling coherent, evolving 3D worlds. We further demonstrate novel capabilities, including synthesising diverse 3D environments from a single image, as well as enabling fine-grained, geometry-aware control over generated experiences by supporting environment editing and specification directly in 3D space.

arXiv:2603.02221v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: In healthcare tabular predictions, classical models with feature engineering often outperform neural approaches. Recent advances in Large Language Models enable the integration of domain knowledge into feature engineering, offering a promising direction. However, existing approaches typically rely on a broad search over predefined transformations, overlooking downstream model characteristics and feature importance signals. We present MedFeat, a feedback-driven and model-aware feature engineering framework that leverages LLM reasoning with domain knowledge and provides feature explanations based on SHAP values while tracking successful and failed proposals to guide feature discovery. By incorporating model awareness, MedFeat prioritizes informative signals that are difficult for the downstream model to learn directly due to its characteristics. Across a broad range of clinical prediction tasks, MedFeat achieves stable improvements over various baselines and discovers clinically meaningful features that generalize under distribution shift, demonstrating robustness across years and from ICU cohorts to general hospitalized patients, thereby offering insights into real-world deployment. Code required to reproduce our experiments will be released, subject to dataset agreements and institutional policies.

arXiv:2602.17690v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Graphic design generation demands a delicate balance between high visual fidelity and fine-grained structural editability. However, existing approaches typically bifurcate into either non-editable raster image synthesis or abstract layout generation devoid of visual content. Recent combinations of these two approaches attempt to bridge this gap but often suffer from rigid composition schemas and unresolvable visual dissonances (e.g., text-background conflicts) due to their inexpressive representation and open-loop nature. To address these challenges, we propose DesignAsCode, a novel framework that reimagines graphic design as a programmatic synthesis task using HTML/CSS. Specifically, we introduce a Plan-Implement-Reflect pipeline, incorporating a Semantic Planner to construct dynamic, variable-depth element hierarchies and a Visual-Aware Reflection mechanism that iteratively optimizes the code to rectify rendering artifacts. Extensive experiments demonstrate that DesignAsCode significantly outperforms state-of-the-art baselines in both structural validity and aesthetic quality. Furthermore, our code-native representation unlocks advanced capabilities, including automatic layout retargeting, complex document generation (e.g., resumes), and CSS-based animation.
