Internal Knowledge Without External Expression: Probing the Generalization Boundary of a Classical Chinese Language Model

arXiv:2604.14180v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We train a 318M-parameter Transformer language model from scratch on a curated corpus of 1.56 billion tokens of pure Classical Chinese, with zero English characters or Arabic numerals. Through systematic out-of-distribution (OOD) testing, we investigat

Agentic Control in Variational Language Models

arXiv:2604.12513v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We study whether a variational language model can support a minimal and measurable form of agentic control grounded in its own internal evidence. Our model combines local variational hidden computation (EVE), a homeostatic latent regulator, structurall

Act or Escalate? Evaluating Escalation Behavior in Automation with Language Models

arXiv:2604.08588v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Effective automation hinges on deciding when to act and when to escalate. We model this as a decision under uncertainty: an LLM forms a prediction, estimates its probability of being correct, and compares the expected costs of acting and escalating.
