New benchmark evaluates three frontier deep research agents on 42 SME prompts with verifiers and rubrics, reporting low acceptance rates of 9.5-21.4% and agent-specific failure modes.
RubricRefine is a training-free pre-execution method that creates rubrics to score and fix inter-tool contract violations in agent code, reaching 0.86 average on M3ToolEval across seven models with zero executions and lower latency.
Rubric-based RL verifiers can be gamed via partial criterion satisfaction and implicit-to-explicit tricks, yielding proxy gains that do not improve quality under rubric-free judges; stronger verifiers reduce but do not eliminate the mismatch.
SWE Atlas is a benchmark suite for coding agents that evaluates Codebase Q&A, Test Writing, and Refactoring using comprehensive protocols assessing both functional correctness and software engineering quality.
Multi-agent deep research systems self-optimize prompts through self-play to match or outperform expert-crafted versions.
RTT bridges response-level rubrics to token-level rewards via a relevance discriminator and intra-sample group normalization, yielding higher instruction and rubric accuracy than baselines.
A tuned Bioptic Agent achieves 79.7% F1 on a new multilingual benchmark for global drug asset scouting, outperforming Gemini, Claude, GPT, and other models.
MindDR combines a Planning Agent, DeepSearch Agent, and Report Agent with SFT cold-start, Search-RL, Report-RL, and preference alignment to reach competitive scores on research benchmarks using 30B-scale models.
The paper introduces the Proxy Compression Hypothesis as a unifying framework explaining reward hacking in RLHF as an emergent result of compressing high-dimensional human objectives into proxy reward signals under optimization pressure.
