MAPLE: Memory-Augmented Planning with Language and Evolution

Domain practitioners understand their business constraints but may lack operations-research expertise or dedicated support. LLM-based optimization agents translate natural-language requirements into models or solver programs that established optimization tools can execute. This progress makes optimization more accessible, but real-world operations are dynamic: changing demand, resources, and priorities require updates to data, constraints, and objectives. Methods centered on isolated requests offer limited support for rapid adaptation that preserves earlier decisions and reuses useful search results. We introduce MAPLE (Memory-Augmented Planning with Language and Evolution), an agent for maintaining optimization problems through successive natural-language requests. MAPLE combines language-based problem construction with mathematical programming and evolutionary search. It retains the optimization program, accepted plans, earlier updates, and candidate solutions for subsequent requests. We introduce NLDO, a benchmark of 15 trajectories and 180 updates spanning selection, scheduling, rostering, routing, and cloud-resource placement. In the main evaluation, MAPLE completes all trajectories and achieves online scalar quality of 0.951 and a Pareto hypervolume ratio of 0.875. Controlled comparisons further show that maintaining executable state improves update validity and can preserve useful search information across substantial revisions.

Making Alternative Data Work: Context-Augmented LLMs for Financial Forecasting

When forecasting a firm's future financial performance, alternative data - data collected from non-traditional sources such as consumer transactions, web traffic, and prediction markets - can provide timely signals about firms' operating activities and broader market conditions. These signals may reveal information that is not captured by traditional public sources and can therefore provide complementary information for forecasting firms' future financial performance. However, firm-level alternative data often have limited historical coverage, are relevant only to specific prediction targets or subsets of firms, and are distributed across numerous heterogeneous channels, making them difficult to incorporate flexibly into conventional forecasting approaches. Meanwhile, large language models (LLMs) can interpret instructions, learn from in-context examples, and generate predictions by combining heterogeneous information without task-specific parameter updates. Motivated by this potential flexibility, we investigate whether an LLM can forecast firm performance by integrating alternative data with other financial information through in-context learning. We propose a two-agent framework that first identifies the firms for which each alternative data channel is likely to be informative and then predicts revenue using firm- and channel-specific context. We evaluate the framework across four commercial alternative data channels. In our experiments, adding alternative data in context alongside other financial information improves the LLM's forecasting relative to either source alone, and these forecasts are more accurate than those of standard forecasting baselines. These findings suggest that LLMs provide a flexible and practical approach to integrating alternative data with heterogeneous financial information.

From Document Silos to Process Intelligence: A Multi-Layer Knowledge Graph for CMC Process Development

Chemistry, Manufacturing and Controls (CMC) process development generates an enormous body of technical information across a multi-stage, knowledge-intensive continuum from drug discovery to commercial manufacturing. This knowledge is traditionally fragmented across functions and heterogeneous formats, causing traceability gaps and significant knowledge-management costs during technology transfer and regulatory filing. We present a modular agentic-AI platform that converts a heterogeneous corpus of process-development documents into a queryable, dual-layer knowledge graph. A base knowledge layer builds a lexical graph with a Document-Section-Chunk hierarchy through lossless ingestion of digital, scanned, handwritten, and multilingual documents, while an intelligence layer extracts ontology-aligned entities and bridges cross-document concepts through a provenance-anchored domain graph. LLM agents operate across both layers, selecting the retrieval path best suited to each question. We evaluate the lexical layer with a novel three-tier protocol measuring the deployment-fidelity of a retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) system on proprietary data, demonstrated on 505 questions curated from 38 development reports of a Sanofi small-molecule program. Tier-1 multiple-choice accuracy of 95% signals strong platform reliability; the stricter Tier-2 LLM-judge pass rate of 85%, which degrades on comparative and corpus-wide questions, reveals a failure taxonomy that Tier-1 accuracy alone fails to capture. A router agent selects between layers according to question type. We anticipate this protocol will enable future designers of agentic platforms to assess their systems against nonpublic databases, and that graph-based architectures will see broader adoption in pharma as a means of transforming fragmented document repositories into structured process intelligence.

The Convention Gap: Towards Measuring Implicit Communication in Cooperative AI Evaluation

Cooperative AI agents are evaluated against other AIs, yet human cooperation relies on implicit conventions---shared protocols for reading meaning beyond the literal message---which AI-AI benchmarks may not capture. We propose the convention gap, the difference between the failure probability predicted from the literal content of communication and the observed failure rate, as a metric of implicit communication. In the card game Hanabi, the finite deck and deterministic hint constraints make this posterior exactly computable. We replayed about 101,000 play actions from three public datasets of human-human (hanab.live), AI-AI (HOAD), and human-AI (HanabiData) games. The gap was +26.2 percentage points (pp) in human pairs, -0.7~pp in AI pairs, and +16.4~pp in human-AI pairs, and was concentrated on plays of cards that had received no hints (+46~pp in human pairs). Within human-AI play, the literal information available to humans was similar across the three AI partners (mean predicted failure 38--41\%), but human failure rates ranged from 14.4\% to 34.4\% and the gap from +24.1 to +6.2~pp; the partner eliciting the largest gap produced the fewest human failures. Game score carried different information: it depended on each corpus's roster composition, whereas the gap separated human from AI play at the agent level. As a known-answer check, Off-Belief Learning agents, whose convention content is controlled by construction, gave a gap of +1.6~pp at the convention-free level, rising monotonically to +21.7~pp. These results suggest that convention compatibility, rather than AI-AI performance, may predict an AI's effectiveness with human partners.

VikingRAG: Accurate and Token-efficient Retrieval-augmented Generation over Structured Documents

State-of-the-art retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) methods exploit document structures to acquire sufficient evidence, but often incur substantial token costs. To reduce structural-context tokens without compromising high RAG accuracy, we present {VikingRAG}, a directory-aware semantic data management system that tightly integrates semantic and structural access to support structural-context-efficient, evidence-gap-driven multi-round retrieval. To further reduce token overhead of multi-round interaction, we materialize agentic multi-round retrieval traces as experience edges, and reuse these edges for similar queries, avoiding repeated multi-round exploration. To additionally reduce token costs when agentic multi-round retrieval is unnecessary, we introduce an adaptive escalation strategy that answers from one-round experience-augmented retrieval when the evidence is sufficient, and invokes agentic multi-round retrieval only otherwise. Experiments on real datasets show that the base system {VikingRAG} matches high accuracy of state-of-the-art methods while consuming only 11.6\%--51.9\% of their tokens. With retrieval-trace reuse and adaptive escalation, token costs drop to 5.1\%--32.5\% while maintaining competitive accuracy and practical document-storage performance, showing the utility of this work for emerging AI knowledge bases.
