Evidence-Informed LLM Beliefs for Continual Scientific Discovery

Dhruv AgarwalReece AdamsonAndrew McCallumBodhisattwa Prasad Majumder
2026
arXiv.org

Open-ended scientific discovery with large language models (LLMs) increasingly operates as a long-horizon loop of hypothesis search and verification, where a reward signal guides which hypotheses to… 

Efficiently Representing Algorithms With Chain-of-Thought Transformers

Yanhong LiAnej SveteAshish SabharwalWilliam Merrill
2026
arXiv.org

The increasing popularity of \emph{reasoning} models -- language models that output a series of reasoning or thought tokens before producing an answer -- is justified, in part, by theoretical… 

MolmoMotion: Forecasting Point Trajectories in 3D with Language Instruction

Jianing ZhangChenhao ZhengYajun YangRanjay Krishna
2026
arXiv

Motion forecasting is central to visual intelligence: agents must anticipate how objects will move in order to plan actions, reason about physical interactions, and synthesize realistic futures. We… 

Operadic consistency: a label-free signal for compositional reasoning failures in LLMs

Nathaniel BottmanYinhong LiuKyle Richardson
2026
NeurIPS

Detecting LLM reasoning failures at inference time without ground-truth labels has motivated a wide range of confidence baselines, including self-consistency, semantic entropy, and P(True), built on… 

Operads for compositional reasoning in LLMs

Nathaniel BottmanKyle Richardson
2026
Workshop on Combining Theory and Benchmarks (@ICML 2026)

Question decomposition, i.e. breaking a complex query into simpler sub-queries whose answers are composed to produce a final answer, is a widely used strategy for improving LLM reasoning, yet it… 

Disentangling the effects of sea surface temperature and CO$_2$ in global machine learned weather-climate emulators

S. ClarkTroy ArcomanoJames P. C. DuncanChristopher S. Bretherton
2026
arXiv

While previous versions of the Ai2 Climate Emulator (ACE) have been trained with CO$_2$ as a forcing, they are only accurate within a narrow range of scenarios, for example climate over the last 80… 

VideoNet: A Large-Scale Dataset for Domain-Specific Action Recognition

Tanush YadavMohammadreza SalehiJae Sung ParkRanjay Krishna
2026
CVPR

Videos are unique in their ability to capture actions which transcend multiple frames. Accordingly, for many years action recognition was the quintessential task for video understanding.… 

Enabling federated discovery leveraging agentic AI systems: The Cancer AI Alliance and DataVoyager

Simone E DekkerStephen SalernoBodhisattwa P MajumderCancer AI Alliance (CAIA)
2026
Journal of Clinical Oncology

Background: Artificial intelligence (AI) has the potential to transform oncology, but robust AI models require diverse, multi-institutional data that preserve patient privacy. Federating data across… 

MolmoAct: Action Reasoning Models that can Reason in Space

Jason LeeJiafei DuanHaoquan FangRanjay Krishna
2026
CoRL • Data and Rational Robots

Reasoning is central to purposeful action, yet most robotic foundation models map perception and instructions directly to control, which limits adaptability, generalization, and semantic grounding.… 

SamudrACE: Fast and Accurate Coupled Climate Modeling with 3D Ocean and Atmosphere Emulators

James P. C. DuncanElynn WuSurya DheeshjithChristopher S. Bretherton
2026
Geophysical Research Letters

Traditional numerical global climate models simulate the full Earth system by exchanging boundary conditions between separate simulators of the atmosphere, ocean, sea ice, land surface, and other…
