How to Use Jev AI: A Hands-On Guide to TypeSafe’s System One Model
Most AI models are built to generate text. But not every application needs a long response. Sometimes, you just need an AI model to classify an input, score it, or answer a yes-or-no question. Jev, TypeSafe AI’s System One model, is designed for these tasks. It returns structured answers with confidence scores instead of generating [ ] The post How to Use Jev AI: A Hands-On Guide to TypeSafe’s System One Model appeared first on Analytics Vidhya.

$\lambda_0$: Scaling Open-World Egocentric Human Data for Humanoid Loco-Manipulation
arXiv:2610.18950v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Humanoid loco-manipulation requires coordinated whole-body interaction with the physical world, yet collecting robot demonstrations at scale remains costly. Human demonstrations offer a scalable alternative, but existing egocentric human supervision often omits locomotion and posture, while embodiment differences and controller dynamics hinder accurate end-effector execution. We introduce HumanVerse, a 500-hour dataset of open-world human loco-manipulation pairing egocentric video with synchronized body and hand motion. Our human-to-humanoid pipeline aligns camera viewpoints and arm appearance, and refines motion references and controller inputs offline to reduce end-effector errors while preserving whole-body coordination. We validate the pipeline through zero-shot transfer to Unitree G1 on representative whole-body manipulation and long-range loco-manipulation tasks, without target-task robot demonstrations. Building on this pipeline, w
The Silent Failures in Agentic Data Science
arXiv:2610.14115v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language models have significantly lowered the barrier to writing code. Naturally, this has also led to the development of data science agents that promise automating the design and execution of data science from task formulation to model development. Existing evaluations of agentic data science (agentic DS) assess downstream predictive performance and code correctness, providing preliminary insight in agentic DS capabilities. We argue that these evaluations overlook the fundamental principles of data science: methodological data science- and domain knowledge. As such, only assessing downstream performance masks methodological failures such as data leakage and inappropriate validation, limiting the development of robust agentic DS systems. In this paper, we evaluate agentic DS beyond accuracy from three different angles: 1) a large-scale analysis of failure modes in common agentic DS frameworks and models across 220 data science tas
Lotus: Learning to Understand Time-series by Learning to Forecast
arXiv:2610.18877v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Time-series language models typically align numerical signals with language using labels, captions, or question-answer pairs. Although such supervision encourages linguistic representations, it does not explicitly require them to preserve information about how the underlying time-series signal evolves. We introduce forecast grounding, a pretraining principle that requires language-aligned time-series representations to remain predictive of the future evolution before they are adapted to downstream tasks. We instantiate this principle in LOTUS, which divides each time-series channel into non-overlapping patches and maps them into the LLM embedding space. It then predicts the next patch from the LLM hidden states of the time-series tokens, encouraging the learned representation to retain temporal information. To capture both temporal changes and periodic patterns, we also propose a temporal-spectral patch representation that combines each r
Contact-UAN: Unsupervised Actuator Networks as a Residual World Model for Humanoid Control
arXiv:2610.18991v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Humanoid policies trained in simulation can transfer qualitatively to hardware while failing to transfer the force interactions learned during training, compromising torque efficiency, load regulation, and robustness to impacts. This failure can arise from actuator sim-to-real gaps because forces depend on actuator torques. We introduce Contact-UAN, a residual world model that preserves a simulator's physics priors while correcting actuator dynamics to align simulated rollouts with recorded hardware rollouts. For humanoid motion with contact, this requires contact-consistent replay: if hardware playback in simulation begins with misaligned contact wrenches, the residual model learns to correct reset artifacts rather than actuator discrepancies. Using only onboard proprioception, Contact-UAN infers the simulator-side stance-foot pose needed to initialize replay with consistent contact forces. We show that a UAN trained on 6.5 minutes of re
Inverse Reasoning Models for Efficient Post-Training and Verification from Answer-Only Data
arXiv:2610.18878v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Post-training reasoning LLMs often requires making a tradeoff between costly supervision and compute inefficiency: supervised finetuning typically requires reasoning traces, which is data inefficient since in many applications one only has prompt-answer tuples and lacks the groundtruth chain-of-thought (CoT) sequence. On the other hand, reinforcement learning (with verifiable rewards, for example) can operate without CoT data but it is much more compute-inefficient since it requires multiple autoregressive completions per optimization step, none of which are guaranteed to give a non-zero policy gradient. In this work we explore a middleground, a self-distillation technique that uses answer-only data, treating CoT as latent variables. This relies on training a partner ``inverse reasoning LLM" that generates the original's reasoning traces conditioned on the answer. The inverse model is trained once and reused across incoming batches of ans
Artificiality's First Exam: An LLM-Referenced C-test for Supraintelligence
arXiv:2610.14005v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Under the accelerated pace of AI development, any benchmark whose difficulty is calibrated with humans or current AI systems becomes circular, or saturates soon. How can we then evaluate machines that may become more capable than the current machines and the people who write the tests? One answer to the question hinges on inverse problems, inductive inference questions for which difficulty depends on the complexity of the underlying mechanism, given the observations and the previous knowledge. Levin's Kt, a computable variant of Kolmogorov complexity, puts a theoretical upper bound to that difficulty, balancing the simplest representation encoding for the mechanism and the logarithm of the time steps to run that mechanism. Previous tests derived from Levin's Kt, such as the original C-test, are based on minimalistic Universal Turing Machines (UTM), capable of very limited representations and no previous knowledge.
