Auditable Human-Agent Teams for Autonomous X-ray ExperimentationClosed-loop autonomous experimentation can accelerate scientific discovery, but implementation effort limits accessibility. Agentic systems may lower this barrier, although sustained operation on physical instruments remains largely unexplored. Here, using coding-agent infrastructure grounded in validated scientific m…

EarthRecord: From Pixels to Land Change with Multimodal Agents over Four Decades of Satellite ImageryWhile multimodal agents now carry out complex data analysis with tools, their ability to turn decades of satellite imagery into reliable land-change analysis, crucial for Earth observation science, remains unmeasured. Existing benchmarks fall short: they pose questions on curated images or give agents preprocessed inp…

Train on prefill, monitor at decode: Using sparse autoencoders for topic monitoringTopic monitoring is the task of labelling the topic of each token in a model's response during generation. Activation-based monitors that run at generation time have so far been trained to detect harmful content and are limited to two or three classes. We introduce TopicScope, a framework for training causal topic cla…

LandslideFM: A Foundation Model Towards Unified Landslide Perception and UnderstandingIntelligent landslide detection is essential for disaster prevention. However, existing models primarily focus on isolated visual tasks, require extensive labeled data, and lack deep analytical and scene-understanding capabilities. To address these limitations, we propose LandslideFM, the first unified foundation mode…

Tracing Psychometric Inference in Large Language ModelsDo large language models represent psychological constructs internally, or do they only generate outputs that resemble psychometric structure? We address this question using a cross-persona paradigm across 14 model variants from two families (Llama 3 and Qwen 2.5, 0.5B-14B, base and instruct). Given responses on one p…

AI Governance Should Prioritize Control and Knowledge Boundaries Over Limiting IntelligenceThe rapid proliferation of autonomously acting AI agents makes the governance of agentic systems urgent. We propose the competence circuit, summarized as IKC + KC + C, that decomposes an agent's real-world impact into three pathways: intelligence-mediated discovery, procedural know-how, and direct control. Using the c…
