FilingLoop: Evaluating and Evolving LLM Agents for Corporate Disclosure Review and Revision

arXiv:2610.37905v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Public disclosure repositories such as SEC EDGAR support informed investment through web access to corporate filings. Supporting their review with language model agents requires discovering unstated deficiencies across related documents, acquiring missing company facts, and verifying that requested revisions satisfy evidence-backed requirements. Existing financial question-answering evaluations provide limited evidence of these interactive capabilities. We introduce \textbf{FilingLoop}, an interactive benchmark and a self-evolving agent framework for corporate disclosure review and revision. Grounded in historical U.S.\ Securities and Exchange Commission correspondence, FilingLoop reconstructs 380 predominantly IPO review tasks from 96 compan

FlatCake: A Flat KVCache Storage Architecture for LLM Serving

arXiv:2610.38355v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: KV cache reuse accelerates LLM serving, but existing systems manage host DRAM and NVMe SSD as a tiered hierarchy where DRAM acts as an intermediate cache. Production LLM workloads break both premises of this hierarchy. First, bimodal reuse defeats DRAM temporal filtering, since workloads are dominated either by one-shot blocks with long reuse distances or by multi-gigabyte agentic sessions that exceed DRAM capacity, putting SSD on the critical read path. Second, DRAM staging and eviction-ordered layout bottleneck SSD restoration. Holding host staging buffers for in-flight prefixes causes contention under load that aborts prefetches, while incremental eviction scatters a session's blocks across the SSD and prevents large sequential reads.

Chrome starts “scrolling through your inbox” to help you fill out forms: Gemini turns Gmail into a form-filling assistant

Google is shifting Chrome’s auto-fill from “remembering” to “finding”: Powered by Gemini and Personal Intelligence, Chrome can now read your Gmail and proactively suggest order numbers, tracking numbers, flight booking IDs, and more—based on the current form. This enhanced form-filling feature began rolling out to U.S. users in batches starting late October, covering desktop Chrome as well as iOS and Android users who have enabled Gemini, aiming to break the decade-old habit of relying on users to manually save their names and addresses.

Will 150,000 extras be completely replaced by AI? ByteDance’s Volcano Engine responded late at night: the online claim that “data is being fed into large models” is seriously inaccurate!

Rumors are circulating that Hengdian Film & TV plans to partner with ByteDance to collect and store digital data, facial features, and acting performances of 150,000 extras, conducting in-depth analysis. The claim that “extras will no longer be needed in the future” has sparked heated debate over whether AI is taking away the livelihoods of grassroots actors, drawing close attention from the film and television industry. On October 28, Liu Xing, head of public relations for Doubao, responded by stating “Hengdian is collaborating with ByteDance,” though the full text of his subsequent remarks was not provided.

Foreign blogger uses AI earphones as a medical translation tool: “Just listen and translate—communication becomes much smoother.”

Foreign blogger “Carlo Wu (Carlo)” shared his experience of visiting a traditional Chinese medicine doctor on social media. He wore the Qwen AI clip-on earphones—one for himself and one for the doctor—and used face-to-face translation to facilitate communication. Carlo said he finds traditional medicine very interesting, but language has always been an obstacle. During the consultation, when the doctor asked where he was feeling discomfort, he could only gesture while saying, “Everything hurts.” After putting on the earphones, the two were able to communicate more effectively. He remarked that this was the first time he truly understood what the doctor was saying.

Detect Before You Disambiguate: Perturbation-Based Input Ambiguity Detection in LLMs

arXiv:2610.36353v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) often answer ambiguous inputs as if they had a single intended meaning. This is problematic because input ambiguity is an upstream source of uncertainty: when a prompt admits multiple valid interpretations, the key question is whether the model should answer directly at all. Existing input uncertainty methods often rely on LLM-generated statements or clarifications, but such transformations may already disambiguate the input before the ambiguity is measured. We propose a label-preserving perturbation framework for input ambiguity detection in which perturbations remain close to the original input while preserving its label. We instantiate this principle with two detectors: a black-box rule-based perturbation libra

LLM Hallucination Detection via Low-rank Multilinear Decomposition

arXiv:2610.36191v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) frequently generate fluent yet factually incorrect responses, raising concerns about their reliability. Recent hallucination detectors increasingly exploit internal representations, but extracting informative signals from high-dimensional hidden states remains challenging. Existing approaches often rely on selected activations or pooling-based compression, potentially overlooking discriminative information distributed across Transformer layers, feature modes, and tokens. We propose LOTUS (Low-rank Order-statistic TUcker-based Subspace learning), a multilinear low-rank decomposition framework for hallucination detection that extracts compact representations from LLM hidden states while reducing dependence on labele

Causal Localization of Evidence Effects in Transformers

arXiv:2610.36524v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Can controlled symbolic inputs reveal attention heads that influence a language model's decisions from natural language evidence? We introduce controlled evidence aggregation (CEA), which varies the counts and order of two symbols in otherwise fixed prompts and measures changes in a frozen Transformer's preference between two answer tokens. The preference is measured by their logit difference; the prompts prescribe no correct answer. Balanced utility causal selection (BUC) identifies compact head sets by jointly evaluating how much ablating their outputs removes the count effect and how closely patching mean outputs between count conditions recovers the effect in both directions. We derive conditional bounds linking head attribution to interv
