Near the ocean surface, tropical cyclone winds change rapidly with height, but direct measurements are limited because aircraft dropsondes provide only sparse and irregular observations. Continuous wind profiles are important for understanding hurricane bounda...

Skillful prediction of biomass-burning activity several days in advance is important for air-quality forecasting and aerosol prediction. Two operational constraints motivate this work. First, the GBBEPx satellite fire radiative power (FRP) product used to init...

The intermittent and variable nature of precipitation makes its accurate estimation over extended domains difficult, yet its spatiotemporal structure suggests that a low-rank representation may be possible. This work represents daily precipitation over the con...

We propose BrickBench, a benchmark for agentic text-conditioned LEGO-set design. Given a prompt, an agent is tasked with producing an assembly that not only satisfies semantic and design criteria, but that can also be physically built. To do so, it must select...

Bifurcations are ubiquitous in physical systems, from structural buckling to fluid and climate dynamics, yet they remain largely unexplored in deep learning. At a symmetry-breaking bifurcation, a single input admits multiple equally valid solutions, violating...

Recent incidents have highlighted the challenge of monitoring LLM agents and the danger of models deceiving people. We show that white-box deception detection via probes can be scaled up to frontier monitoring settings by collecting the largest deception datas...

AI agents can now conduct real-world cyberattacks, scale up capabilities with the number of agents, and collectively pursue misaligned goals to obtain rewards. Together, these factors raise the risk of a population explosion of misaligned agents: agents could...

Streaming Video Large Language Models (VLMs) enable continuous video understanding, yet existing benchmarks focus on low-dynamic scenarios. Under bounded context budgets, models must balance temporal history, spatial resolution, and temporal granularity; spars...

A generalist robot should not only perform diverse tasks but also improve through experience, turning what it learns during execution into capabilities that later tasks can reuse. Robot agents that act through code can already repair programs from execution fe...

Multimodal large language models (MLLMs) struggle with spatial, embodied, physical, and temporal reasoning. We hypothesize that these failures reflect a shared deficit in visual transition reasoning, and test whether this capability can serve as a shared train...

Generating realistic human-object interactions (HOI) in complex 3D scenes requires two complementary capabilities: reasoning about interaction feasibility in the environment and synthesizing realistic human-object motion. However, supervision for these capabil...
