BeSafe-Bench Exposes AI Agent Safety Risks
BeSafe-Bench introduces a benchmark for evaluating behavioral safety risks of situated AI agents in functional environments across web, mobile, embodied VLM, and VLA domains. It augments tasks with nine safety-critical risk categories and employs a hybrid evaluation using rule-based checks and LLM-as-a-judge. Tests on 13 agents show even top performers complete under 40% of tasks fully safely, highlighting urgent safety alignment needs.
AutoB2G: LLM-Driven Auto B2G Simulator
AutoB2G is an LLM-based agentic framework that automates building-grid co-simulation workflows using natural language descriptions. It extends CityLearn V2 for B2G interactions and employs the SOCIA framework with a DAG-structured codebase to guide LLM execution and refinement. Experiments show it coordinates simulations to boost grid performance metrics.
AIRA_2 Breaks AI Agent Bottlenecks
AIRA_2 tackles three bottlenecks in AI research agents: single-GPU limits, validation generalization gaps, and fixed LLM operators. It employs async multi-GPU workers, Hidden Consistent Evaluation, and ReAct agents for better throughput and reliability. Achieves 71.8% percentile on MLE-bench-30 at 24 hours, rising to 76.0% at 72 hours, surpassing prior SOTA.
A-SelecT Automates DiT Timestep Selection
A-SelecT dynamically selects the most information-rich timestep from DiT transformer features in a single run. It eliminates exhaustive timestep searches and suboptimal feature selection, boosting training efficiency. Experiments show superior performance on classification and segmentation benchmarks over prior diffusion methods.
