ClawNet: Human-Symbiotic Agent Network for Cross-User Autonomous Cooperation

arXiv:2604.19211v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Current AI agent frameworks have made remarkable progress in automating individual tasks, yet all existing systems serve a single user. Human productivity rests on the social and organizational relationships through which people coordinate, negotiate, and delegate. When agents move beyond performing tasks for one person to representing that person in collaboration with others, the infrastructure for cross-user agent collaboration is entirely absent

GRASPrune: Global Gating for Budgeted Structured Pruning of Large Language Models

arXiv:2604.19398v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) are expensive to serve because model parameters, attention computation, and KV caches impose substantial memory and latency costs. We present GRASPrune, a structured pruning framework applied after pretraining that jointly prunes FFN channels and KV head groups under a single global budget. Instead of learning importance scores without constraints and applying the budget only after training, GRASPrune learns lightweight

Four-Axis Decision Alignment for Long-Horizon Enterprise AI Agents

SimDiff: Depth Pruning via Similarity and Difference

arXiv:2604.19520v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Depth pruning improves the deployment efficiency of large language models (LLMs) by identifying and removing redundant layers. A widely accepted standard for this identification process is to measure the similarity between layers using cosine distance. However, we find that methods relying solely on this one-dimensional heuristic can exhibit unpredictable performance and even catastrophic collapse across different architectures.

Decompose, Structure, and Repair: A Neuro-Symbolic Framework for Autoformalization via Operator Trees

arXiv:2604.19000v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Statement autoformalization acts as a critical bridge between human mathematics and formal mathematics by translating natural language problems into formal language. While prior works have focused on data synthesis and diverse training paradigms to optimize end-to-end Large Language Models (LLMs), they typically treat formal code as flat sequences, neglecting the hierarchical logic inherent in mathematical statements. In this work, we introduce D

Intentional Updates for Streaming Reinforcement Learning

arXiv:2604.19033v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: In gradient-based learning, a step size chosen in parameter units does not produce a predictable per-step change in function output. This often leads to instability in the streaming setting (i.e., batch size=1), where stochasticity is not averaged out and update magnitudes can momentarily become arbitrarily big or small. Instead, we propose intentional updates: first specify the intended outcome of an update and then solve for the step size that

Product-of-Experts Training Reduces Dataset Artifacts in Natural Language Inference

arXiv:2604.19069v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Neural NLI models overfit dataset artifacts instead of truly reasoning. A hypothesis-only model gets 57.7% in SNLI, showing strong spurious correlations, and 38.6% of the baseline errors are the result of these artifacts. We propose Product-of-Experts (PoE) training, which downweights examples where biased models are overconfident. PoE nearly preserves accuracy (89.10% vs. 89.30%) while cutting bias reliance by 4.71% (bias agreement 49.85% to 45%

S2MAM: Semi-supervised Meta Additive Model for Robust Estimation and Variable Selection

arXiv:2604.19072v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Semi-supervised learning with manifold regularization is a classical framework for jointly learning from both labeled and unlabeled data, where the key requirement is that the support of the unknown marginal distribution has the geometric structure of a Riemannian manifold. Typically, the Laplace-Beltrami operator-based manifold regularization can be approximated empirically by the Laplacian regularization associated with the entire training data

On Solving the Multiple Variable Gapped Longest Common Subsequence Problem

arXiv:2604.18645v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: This paper addresses the Variable Gapped Longest Common Subsequence (VGLCS) problem, a generalization of the classical LCS problem involving flexible gap constraints between consecutive solutions' characters. The problem arises in molecular sequence comparison, where structural distance constraints between residues must be respected, and in time-series analysis where events are required to occur within specified temporal delays. We propose a search
