The Digital Sous Chef -- A Comparative Study on Fine-Tuning Language Models for Recipe Generation
We established a rigorous benchmark for text-based recipe generation, a fundamental task in natural language generation. We present a comprehensive comparative study contrasting a fine-tuned GPT-2 large (774M) model against the GPT-2 small (124M) model and traditional LSTM/RNN baselines on the 5-cuisine corpus from RecipeDB. Our key contribution is a targeted tokenization strategy that augments the vocabulary with 23 common fraction tokens and custom structural markers. This approach addresses …

RL Is a Hammer and LLMs Are Nails: A Simple Reinforcement Learning Recipe for Strong Prompt Injection
Prompt injection poses a serious threat to the reliability and safety of LLM agents. Recent defenses against prompt injection, such as Instruction Hierarchy and SecAlign, have shown notable robustness against static attacks. However, to more thoroughly evaluate the robustness of these defenses, it is arguably necessary to employ strong attacks such as automated red-teaming. To this end, we introduce RL-Hammer, a simple recipe for training attacker models that automatically learn to perform stro…

The local gauge coupling through the recipe $\partial_μψ\to \partial_μψ+ iqA_μψ$ works perfectly well with Dirac spinors in QED and in the gauge theories of the Standard Model, but for scalar fields it has a peculiarity: it generates in the Lagrangian a coupling term $J_μA^μ$ in which $J_μ$ does not coincide with the conserved Nöther current associated to the global gauge symmetry. If we want to preserve a coupling through a conserved current, which is true for spinors and has definit…

Without time, economic modelers may neglect or obscure the role of time-dependent phenomena, e.g. path-dependency, and limit their ability to compare agnostically the model results with empirical observations. In this article, I outline a dynamic, signals-based recipe for building microeconomic models from traditional static models. I demonstrate this recipe using a classic "…

- New Recipe for Semi-supervised Community Detection: Clique Annealing under Crystallization Kinetics
Ling Cheng, Jiashu Pu, Ruicheng Liang, Qian Shao, Hezhe Qiao, Feida Zhu

I did nearly the whole commute in PAS 1 today, just went to PAS 3 for the bad stretch on Hampton. It was a bit more of a workout, and that was fine. Seemed like a good day for it.
I also did 5 miles on the acoustic bike this morning for a quick run to the grocery store to get milk for a recipe my partner is making for their department today.

Malice in Agentland: Down the Rabbit Hole of Backdoors in the AI Supply Chain
The practice of fine-tuning AI agents on data from their own interactions--such as web browsing or tool use--, while being a strong general recipe for improving agentic capabilities, also introduces a critical security vulnerability within the AI supply chain. In this work, we show that adversaries can easily poison the data collection pipeline to embed hard-to-detect backdoors that are triggerred by specific target phrases, such that when the agent encounters these triggers, it performs an uns…

So, we had we had the Chez Dallman Pecan Chicken Bok Choy again. I wanted to take my wife's picture, but she protested and said she never looks good under the glaring kitchen light. I pushed the settings button in the camera app and said wryly, "Ah, there it is: turning on 'Make My Wife Beautiful' mode!" And I pushed at the screen.
My wife cracked up. (I did too.) It worked. She likes the photo, or at least she doesn't hate it. I can't post it here, though…

A Practitioner's Guide to Multi-turn Agentic Reinforcement Learning
We study what actually works and what doesn't for training large language models as agents via multi-turn reinforcement learning. Despite rapid progress, existing frameworks and definitions are fragmented, and there is no systematic formulation or analysis of which design choices matter across tasks. We address this gap by first breaking down the design space into three inter-related pillars -- environment, reward, and policy -- and empirically derive a recipe for training LLM agents in situate…

Learning from the electronic structure of molecules across the periodic table
Machine-Learned Interatomic Potentials (MLIPs) require vast amounts of atomic structure data to learn forces and energies, and their performance continues to improve with training set size. Meanwhile, the even greater quantities of accompanying data in the Hamiltonian matrix H behind these datasets has so far gone unused for this purpose. Here, we provide a recipe for integrating the orbital interaction data within H towards training pipelines for atomic-level properties. We first introduce HEL…

Towards an Action-Centric Ontology for Cooking Procedures Using Temporal Graphs
Formalizing cooking procedures remains a challenging task due to their inherent complexity and ambiguity. We introduce an extensible domain-specific language for representing recipes as directed action graphs, capturing processes, transfers, environments, concurrency, and compositional structure. Our approach enables precise, modular modeling of complex culinary workflows. Initial manual evaluation on a full English breakfast recipe demonstrates the DSL's expressiveness and suitability for futu…

Resource-efficient universal photonic processor based on time-multiplexed hybrid architectures
For the ever-growing field of quantum information processing, large-scale, efficient multi-port interferometers serving as photonic processors are required. In this context, the suitability of quantum walks as the interferometric base for universal computation has been theoretically proven. In this work, we bridge the gap between theoretical proposals and state-of-the-art experimental capabilities by providing the recipe for the implementation of a universal photonic processor in discrete-time …

ModernVBERT: Towards Smaller Visual Document Retrievers
Multimodal embedding models are gaining prevalence, notably for document retrieval as efficient alternatives to text-only pipelines. These models are typically built by finetuning large vision-language decoders (VLMs) with contrastive losses on text-image pairs. In this work, we show that, while cost-efficient, this repurposing approach often bottlenecks retrieval performance. Through controlled experiments, we establish a principled recipe for improving visual document retrieval models. We not…

BaseReward: A Strong Baseline for Multimodal Reward Model
The rapid advancement of Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) has made aligning them with human preferences a critical challenge. Reward Models (RMs) are a core technology for achieving this goal, but a systematic guide for building state-of-the-art Multimodal Reward Models (MRMs) is currently lacking in both academia and industry. Through exhaustive experimental analysis, this paper aims to provide a clear ``recipe'' for constructing high-performance MRMs. We systematically investigate eve…

RoboSSM: Scalable In-context Imitation Learning via State-Space Models
In-context imitation learning (ICIL) enables robots to learn tasks from prompts consisting of just a handful of demonstrations. By eliminating the need for parameter updates at deployment time, this paradigm supports few-shot adaptation to novel tasks. However, recent ICIL methods rely on Transformers, which have computational limitations and tend to underperform when handling longer prompts than those seen during training. In this work, we introduce RoboSSM, a scalable recipe for in-context im…
