A systematic review of 50 studies identifies 69 LLM-assisted tasks in empirical software engineering, concentrated in data processing and analysis with gaps in human-centered integration and reproducibility reporting.
LensAgent is a training-free LLM agent framework that reconstructs mass distributions in SLACS strong lensing systems to extract sub-galactic substructures.
Graph-PRefLexOR fine-tunes graph-native models with GRPO to organize reasoning into phases, yielding 40-65% gains in traceable hypothesis generation and 2-3x semantic diversity on 100 materials science questions.
Students use LLMs less frequently and verify AI-generated code less carefully in team assignments than in individual homework, and the verification gap persists after usage recovers.
Mixed-objective reward models underperform single-objective ones because shared neurons support one objective while negatively affecting the other, creating alignment tension.
Presents MedSci Skills, an open-source toolkit with deterministic integrity gates for verifying LLM-assisted clinical manuscripts against reporting guidelines like STARD, PRISMA, and STROBE.
Agent-based AI workflows repair injected reproducibility failures in R social-science code at 69-96% success, substantially outperforming prompt-based LLM approaches at 31-79%.
GPT-4o exhibits daily and weekly periodic fluctuations in performance on a fixed physics task, accounting for about 20% of observed variance.
