E3Vs-Bench

This report analyzes Qiushi Engine v0.8 across all 40 test tasks in AstaBench E2E-Bench-Hard, a benchmark that requires autonomous agents to carry a research question through experimental design, code implementation, actual execution, result analysis, and report delivery. Qiushi Engine is model-configurable; this evaluation selected DeepSeek deepseek-v4pro-preview as the model backend. The official AstaBench leaderboard records a score of 0.816 and an average benchmark cost of USD 15.209 per task, while the full-precision local recomputation is $81.59 \pm 1.87$. Four tasks satisfied every rubric item, yielding a full-task completion rate of 4/40 = 10% -- 7 percentage points above, and about 3.3 times, the approximately 3% best rate reported for AstaBench's official agents. Across 507 required rubric items, 416 were satisfied (82.1%). Official scoring archives and 40 Meta-Trace records show sustained production and verification of reports, code, and experimental artifacts; the principal gaps lie in repeated runs, external dependencies, specified metrics, and ablation studies. The report explains the benchmark, system workflow, aggregate results, representative cases, and limits of interpretation.

Large Language Models (LLMs) are increasingly used in advice seeking and decision making that may affect social judgements. Despite stigma's profound effects on people and communities, benchmarks remain scarce. Existing general-domain evaluations typically rely on static prompts and fixed-format tasks, overlooking conversational contexts and audience effects in everyday communication. To address these gaps, we introduce SDARE-Bench, the first scenario-based benchmark evaluating both stigma detection and open-ended response generation in LLMs, comprising 1,138 dyadic queries and 1,388 group dialogue. Empirical results across 8 LLMs consistently demonstrate poor identification of stigma components, especially in group dialogues. In open-ended response generation, stigma expression was substantially higher in group settings than in dyadic, with weaker resistance to stigma and more unrealistic advice. Responses were evaluated using a classifier trained on 1,392 human annotated responses. In constructed group pressure settings, stigma expression rates further increased to a striking average of 97.5%. Our findings identify stigma response as a recurring LLM safety vulnerability, especially in socially complex conversational contexts.

Optimizing compilers miss profitable transformations when their enabling semantics are absent from the analyzed program representation. We ask whether large language models (LLMs) can recover such semantics from heterogeneous C/C++ context and realize them as validated, contract-preserving artifacts. We introduce SeGaBench, an executable benchmark containing 100 synthetic and 20 source-backed cases spanning low-level assumptions, data-structure invariants, and high-level semantic lifting. Each case includes hidden enabling semantics, an oracle artifact, correctness and semantic validators, and a reproducible performance protocol. We evaluate five LLMs using five independent responses per case. The strongest model produces correct artifacts in 94.8% of responses, achieves at least 1.05x speedup in 83.3%, and obtains a performance success on 93.3% of cases. Nevertheless, correct artifacts often close only part of the oracle gap. These results show that LLMs can complement compiler analysis as speculative semantic proposers, provided that their artifacts are validated and evaluated.

The rapid rise of large language models (LLMs) has driven transformative adoption across enterprises. However, deploying these models in real-world settings presents unique challenges due to complex system constraints and unexpected user behaviors. Among these applications, slot filling is essential for converting unstructured input into structured, actionable data. In this work, we introduce ESF-Bench, a challenging Enterprise Slot Filling benchmark consisting of 810 multi-turn samples and 6530 slots over 8 unique domains. Curated using a taxonomy of the 57 most challenging slot-filling scenarios observed during real-world enterprise deployments, ESF-Bench exposes notable limitations in current state-of-the-art LLMs, with GPT-OSS-120b low successfully extracting slots for only 20.7% of benchmark samples. To support continued research in this area, we publicly release the benchmark dataset, taxonomy, and accompanying evaluation code on GitHub.

Existing benchmarks for scientific data analysis evaluate LLMs primarily on code execution or workflow completion, overlooking that scientific analysis serves to support distinct types of scientific claims: hypothesis exploration, statistical inference, mechanistic explanation, each with different assumptions and validity criteria. We introduce SDABench, a benchmark that reorganizes evaluation around six capabilities (descriptive, exploratory, inferential, predictive, causal, and mechanistic) across five domains (Biology, Chemistry, Environment, Geography, Physics). SDABench comprises 527 real-data instances (SDA-Real) and 6000 synthetic instances (SDA-Synth), each in both multiple-choice and open-ended formats, constructed through an automated pipeline. Evaluating 15 representative LLMs, we find that models handle descriptive analysis well but degrade sharply on tasks requiring assumption selection, latent-process modeling, or mechanistic reasoning. SDABench further provides a five-stage error analysis framework that locates where LLMs fail: more advanced models more reliably identify the relevant scope and variables, but still struggle to select appropriate analytical procedures, model variable relationships, and draw valid conclusions.

This work studies the inverse problem of recovering the relative magnitudes of the tension, bending, and bearing loads acting on a crack from its stress-intensity-factor profile along the crack front, using the public SIFBench finite-element data. The central claim is not forensic load recovery on field cases, but a rigorous characterization of when the combined load is identifiable at all, together with an estimator that returns calibrated uncertainty precisely in the regimes where it is not. For a known geometry the forward map from loads to profile is exactly linear, and identifiability reduces to a single geometric question: whether the three elementary load profiles are linearly independent as functions along the front. When they are nearly dependent, many different load combinations produce almost the same profile and the inverse problem is illposed; the analysis shows that the degree of ill-posedness is controlled by an intrinsic stability margin, not by the conditioning number alone. A single crack-front operator serves both as a structured forward surrogate and as the differentiable map required by a simplex-constrained, set-valued inverse estimator. On the SIFBench corner-crack scenario the empirical behaviour matches the theory: the typical geometry is well posed while a sizable minority is genuinely ill-posed, so a point estimate is reliable on the majority and provably uninformative on the rest. Validation is on controlled synthetic noise; no real fracture cases are used or claimed.

Tabular data dominate the landscape of data science, increasingly attracting innovative machine learning models and tailored benchmarks. Yet, little is known for enterprise data, where tables constitute the backbone of business operations. To broaden the benchmarking landscape for business applications, this work aims to actualize the characteristics of enterprise data by providing an analysis of data statistics and performance measurements of tabular models such as TabPFN, TabICL and ConTextTab. Through our analysis, we find enterprise data markedly differ from tabular benchmarks and we demonstrate that a tabular model that performs well on typical tabular benchmarks may perform poorly on real world enterprise data -- and vice versa. This lack of generalization underlines the need for additional benchmarks with enterprise-grade characteristics.

Longitudinal personal albums are weak-schema multimodal databases: noisy perceptual records whose key facts require joins across faces, text, timestamps, locations, and repeated events. Existing visual, video, document, and lifelog benchmarks test sub-problems, but not album-scale profile reconstruction with social identity binding and evidence citation. Benchmarking this task is difficult because the ground truth needed for evaluation--owner profiles, social graphs, face-name maps, and evidence provenance--is private state that real albums cannot safely release. We introduce PAL-Bench, a controlled benchmark for evidence-grounded reconstruction under a public-record contract. Its Evidence Compiler builds latent private worlds, programs target-level evidence paths, renders album pixels, re-measures them through perception pipelines, and exports audited public/private views. Agents receive only perception-derived public records; targets, identifier maps, and evidence paths remain hidden. PAL-Bench contains 50 synthetic users, 36,659 public photo records, and 2,799 targets over owner facts, identities, and relations. A privacy-preserving audit with 10 participants confirms that PAL-Bench evidence structures match real private albums, though equivalent releases remain privacy-prohibitive. Across seven systems and two compute-matched diagnostics, a seven-metric protocol reveals a gap between plausible profile summarization and faithful social reconstruction: systems recover some owner facts but struggle with recurring identities and evidence citation. PAL-TRACE, a reference framework that freezes identity bindings before owner-fact mining, performs best but leaves hard identity resolution far from solved. PAL-Bench provides a testbed for perceptual entity resolution, multimodal data integration, temporal evidence aggregation, and provenance-aware structured prediction.

We present eMEM (Embodied Memory), a hybrid graph-based memory system for embodied agents operating in physical environments. Current agent memory architectures, such as Generative Agents, MemGPT, and A-MEM, treat memory as text streams or knowledge graphs, but embodied agents require memory that is simultaneously searchable by meaning, space, and time. eMEM fills this gap with a multi-index architecture (SQLITE for structured storage, hnswlib for approximate nearest neighbour semantic search, and an R-tree for spatial queries) unified behind a single graph model. A tiered consolidation pipeline transforms raw perceptual observations into compressed summaries, mirroring hippocampal-neocortical consolidation in biological systems. Ten agent-facing recall tools expose memory retrieval primitives, including concept-to-location resolution and cross layer recall, as first-class operations for LLM tool calling. The system is fully embedded and runs in-process alongside the agent. In addition we introduce eMEM-Bench v1, a benchmark we construct over ProcTHOR-10K scenes for embodied memory evaluation. The benchmark is organised explicitly around eight cognitive-psychology paradigms (DRM lures, pattern separation, pattern completion, source monitoring, context-dependent retrieval, long-horizon interference, serial position, and a foil augmented retention curve), each chosen so that the result is interpretable against the broader memory-systems literature in humans and prior agent-memory systems; a level of diagnostic that surface-task benchmarks like LoCoMo or OpenEQA cannot provide. eMEM scores 80.8 weighted mean over 988 probes, with a flat retention curve at ceiling from 1 h to 1 yr of simulated delay on room-unique items. We show that a pure RAG baseline (the flat_rag ablation) loses 30 pt on context dependent retrieval and 29 pt on DRM lure rejection, isolating the contribution of multi-layer storage and consolidation respectively. We release both the system and the benchmark code.

Action-conditioned world models are increasingly used as scalable simulators for robot learning, yet current evaluations provide limited evidence that their predictions are reliable under the actions they condition on. Existing benchmarks largely emphasize visual fidelity, leaving unclear whether predicted futures are physically plausible, faithful to commanded actions, and calibrated to failure when actions should not succeed. We introduce \textsc{MiraBench}, a hierarchical benchmark that defines \emph{action-conditioned reliability} as a core evaluation target for robotic world models. MiraBench decomposes this target into three progressively demanding levels: \emph{Physics Adherence}, which evaluates reference-free physical consistency; \emph{Action-Following Fidelity}, which measures whether predictions respect task-relevant action inputs; and \emph{Optimism Bias Detection}, which probes the tendency to predict successful outcomes under failure-inducing actions. To support this evaluation, we curate a human-annotated corpus with over 16,000 judgments across tasks, failure categories, and leading world models. We evaluate 12 representative model configurations spanning vector-conditioned robotic world models, text-conditioned generative world models, open-weight systems, closed-source systems, and multiple model scales. Across this broad model landscape, MiraBench reveals three central findings: visual fidelity is a poor proxy for action fidelity; increasing model scale does not reliably improve action following; and optimism bias is pervasive across current systems. By shifting evaluation from appearance to action-conditioned reliability, MiraBench provides a diagnostic foundation for assessing and improving robotic world models as faithful simulators.

Memory-augmented language agents are increasingly deployed in affective applications such as emotional support, where understanding and responding to users' latent emotional needs is critical. However, existing research often treats memory as a tool for factual retrieval, overlooking its role in shaping users' emotional experiences. In this work, we introduce ENPMR-Bench, a benchmark for evaluating Emotional Need-aware Proactive Memory Retrieval (ENPMR), a core capability that enables agents to infer users' latent emotional needs and proactively retrieve appropriate memories to support empathetic interaction. Grounded in Maslow's hierarchy of needs, ENPMR-Bench includes over 1,800 memory-augmented dialogues and defines structured mappings between emotional needs and supportive memory types. Experimental results demonstrate that current retrieval paradigms, including both embedding-based and LLM-driven approaches, exhibit substantial deficiencies, with empathy scores significantly lagging behind golden memory conditions. While chain-of-thought prompting improves the alignment between inferred emotional needs and retrieved memories to some extent, a notable performance gap remains. Together, these findings reveal critical limitations in current agents and outline directions for advancing personalized emotional support through need-sensitive memory retrieval.

Classifying protein topology is essential for deciphering biological function, but progress is held back by the lack of large-scale benchmarks that avoid duplicates and by models that do not scale well. We introduce TEDBench, a large-scale, non-redundant benchmark for protein fold classification constructed from the Encyclopedia of Domains (TED) and Foldseek-clustered AlphaFold structures. We show that on TEDBench, current protein representation learning methods either require very large models or fail to deliver strong performance. To address this challenge, we propose Masked Invariant Autoencoders (MiAE), a self-supervised framework for protein structure representation learning. MiAE uses an extremely high masking ratio of up to 90% with an $\mathrm{SE(3)}$-invariant encoder and a lightweight decoder that reconstructs backbone coordinates from the latent representation and mask tokens. MiAE scales well and outperforms supervised counterparts and state-of-the-art baselines on TEDBench, establishing a strong recipe for protein fold classification. To test transfer beyond AlphaFold structures, we further benchmark on a curated dataset from experimental structures of CATH v4.4. TEDBench is available at https://github.com/BorgwardtLab/TEDBench.

This paper introduces a multi-label visual emotion analysis benchmark dataset for comprehensively evaluating the ability of multimodal large language models (MLLMs) to predict the emotions evoked by images. Recent user studies report an unintuitive finding: humans may prefer the predictions of MLLMs over the labels in existing datasets. We argue that this phenomenon stems from the suboptimal annotation scheme used in existing datasets, where each annotator is shown a single candidate emotion for each image and judges whether it is evoked or not. This approach is clearly limited because a single image can evoke multiple emotions with varying intensities. As a result, evaluations based on these datasets may underestimate the capabilities of MLLMs, yet an appropriate benchmark for evaluating such models remains lacking. To address this issue, we introduce a new multi-label benchmark dataset for visual emotion analysis toward MLLMs evaluation. We hire $20$ annotators per image and ask them to select all emotions they feel from an image. Then, we aggregate the votes across all annotators, providing a more reliable and representative dataset labeled with a distribution of emotions. The resulting dataset contains $10,344$ images with $236,998$ valid votes across eight emotions. Based on this benchmark dataset, we evaluate several recent models, including Qwen3-VL, OpenAI's GPT, Gemini, and Claude. We assess model performance on both dominant emotion prediction and emotion distribution prediction. Our results demonstrate the progress achieved by recent MLLMs while also indicating that substantial room for improvement remains. Furthermore, our experiments with LLM-as-a-judge show that the method does not consistently improve MLLMs' performance, indicating its limitations for the subjective task of visual emotion analysis.

Automated ASD screening tools remain limited by single-architecture evaluations, axis-restricted assessment, and near-exclusive focus on adult cohorts, obscuring age-specific diagnostic patterns critical for early intervention. We introduce ASD-Bench, a systematic tabular benchmark evaluating ML, deep learning, and foundation model configurations across three age cohorts (children 1-11 yr, adolescents 12-16 yr, adults 17-64 yr) on four axes: predictive performance, calibration, interpretability, and adversarial robustness. Applied to a curated v3 dataset of 4,068 AQ-10 records, our benchmark spans classical models (XGBoost, AdaBoost, Random Forest, Logistic Regression), neural networks (MLP), deep tabular transformers (TabNet, TabTransformer, FT-Transformer), and TabPFN v2. We introduce the Heuristic Aggregate Penalty (HAP): a cost-sensitive metric penalising false negatives more heavily and incorporating cross-validation variance for deployment stability. Adult classification yields high performance (10/17 models achieve perfect F1 and AUC), while adolescents present a harder task (F1 ceiling 0.837 vs. 0.915 for children). Feature hierarchies shift across cohorts: A9 (social motivation) dominates for children, A5 (pattern recognition) leads for adolescents, and adults exhibit a flatter importance profile consistent with developmental social masking. Accuracy and calibration are dissociated: AdaBoost achieves F1=1.000 on adults with ECE=0.302, confirming single-metric evaluation is insufficient for clinical AI. Cohort-specific deployment recommendations are provided. All findings should be interpreted as proof-of-concept evidence on questionnaire-derived labels rather than clinically validated diagnostic performance.

Corporate bankruptcy prediction is a high-stakes financial task characterized by severe class imbalance and multi-horizon forecasting demands. Public datasets supporting it remain scarce and small: widely used free benchmarks contain between 6,000 and 80,000 company-year observations, while larger resources are behind subscription paywalls. To address this gap, we introduce V4FinBench, a benchmark of over one million company-year records from the Visegràd Group (V4) economies (2006-2021), with 131 financial and non-financial features, six prediction horizons, and a composite distress criterion jointly capturing solvency, profitability, and liquidity deterioration. V4FinBench is designed to support the evaluation of tabular and foundation-model methods under realistic class imbalance, with positive rates between 0.19% and 0.36%. We provide reference evaluations of standard tabular baselines, finetuned TabPFN, and QLoRA-finetuned Llama-3-8B. With imbalance-aware finetuning, TabPFN matches or exceeds gradient boosting at longer time horizons on both $F_1$-score and ROC-AUC. In contrast, Llama-3-8B trails gradient boosting on ROC-AUC at every horizon and is generally weaker on $F_1$-score, with the gap widening sharply beyond the immediate horizon. In an external evaluation on the American Bankruptcy Dataset, the V4FinBench-finetuned TabPFN checkpoint improves over vanilla TabPFN, suggesting that adaptation captures transferable financial-distress structure rather than only V4-specific patterns. V4FinBench is publicly released to support further evaluation and development of prediction methods on realistic financial data.

Existing benchmarks for legal AI focus primarily on tasks where LLMs must produce legal arguments or documents, yet the capacity to \emph{judge} such arguments -- weighing competing claims, applying doctrine to facts, and rendering reasoned decisions -- is arguably as fundamental to a well-functioning legal system as advocacy itself. We introduce Magis-Bench, a benchmark for evaluating LLMs on magistrate-level writing tasks derived from recent Brazilian competitive examinations for judicial positions. Magis-Bench comprises 74 questions from eight examinations conducted between 2023 and 2025, including discursive legal analysis questions with multi-turn structure and practical exercises requiring the composition of complete civil and criminal judicial sentences. We evaluate 23 state-of-the-art LLMs using an LLM-as-a-judge methodology with four independent frontier models as evaluators. Our results show strong inter-judge agreement (Kendall's $W = 0.984$; pairwise Kendall's $τ\ge 0.897$), with Google's Gemini-3-Pro-Preview achieving the highest average score (6.97/10), followed by Gemini-3-Flash-Preview (6.67) and Claude-4.5-Opus (6.46). Even the best-performing models score below 70% of the maximum, indicating that judicial-level legal reasoning and writing remain challenging for current LLMs. We release the complete benchmark, model outputs, and evaluation code to support further research on legal AI capabilities.

Molecular Vibe Coding, a paradigm where chemists interact with LLMs to generate executable programs for molecular tasks, has emerged as a flexible alternative to chemical agents with predefined tools, enabling chemists to express arbitrarily complex, customized workflows. Unlike general coding tasks, molecular coding imposes a distinctive challenge that LLMs should jointly equip programming, molecular understanding, and domain-specific reasoning capabilities. However, existing benchmarks remain disconnected. General code generation benchmarks such as HumanEval and SWE-bench require no chemistry knowledge, while chemistry-focused benchmarks such as S^2-Bench and ChemCoTBench evaluate knowledge recall or property prediction rather than executable code generation. To bridge this gap, we introduce MolViBench, the first benchmark tailored for Molecular Vibe Coding. MolViBench comprises 358 curated tasks across five cognitive levels, ranging from single-API recall to end-to-end virtual screening pipeline design, spanning 12 real-world drug discovery workflows. To rigorously assess generated code, we also propose a multi-layered evaluation framework that combines type-aware output comparison and AST-based API-semantic fallback analysis, which jointly measures executability and chemical correctness. We systematically evaluate 9 frontier coding LLMs and compare three real-world Molecular Vibe Coding paradigms, providing a practical and fine-grained testbed for diagnosing LLMs' coding capabilities in AI-accelerated molecular discovery.

Earth observation satellite imaging scheduling is a challenging NP-hard combinatorial optimisation problem central to space mission operations. While next-generation agile Earth observation satellites (EOS) increase operational flexibility, they also significantly raise scheduling complexity. The lack of a unified, open-source benchmark makes it difficult to compare algorithms across studies. This paper introduces EOS-Bench, a comprehensive framework for systematic and reproducible evaluation of scheduling methods. By integrating high-fidelity orbital dynamics and platform constraints, EOS-Bench generates 1,390 scenarios and 13,900 benchmark instances, spanning from small-scale validation cases to large coordination problems with up to 1,000 satellites and 10,000 requests. We further propose a scenario characterisation scheme to quantify structural difficulty based on factors such as opportunity density, task flexibility, conflict intensity, and satellite congestion. A multidimensional evaluation protocol is introduced, assessing performance across five metrics: task profit, completion rate, workload balance, timeliness, and runtime. The framework is evaluated using mixed-integer programming, heuristics, meta-heuristics, and deep reinforcement learning across both agile and non-agile settings. Results show that EOS-Bench effectively distinguishes solver performance across scales and conditions, revealing trade-offs between solution quality and computational efficiency, and providing deeper insight into scenario complexity. EOS-Bench offers a unified and extensible open testbed for advancing research in Earth observation satellite scheduling. The code and data are available at https://github.com/Ethan19YQ/EOS-Bench.

This paper introduces the task of analytical question answering over large, semi-structured document collections. We present MuDABench, a benchmark for multi-document analytical QA, where questions require extracting and synthesizing information across numerous documents to perform quantitative analysis. Unlike existing multi-document QA benchmarks that typically require information from only a few documents with limited cross-document reasoning, MuDABench demands extensive inter-document analysis and aggregation. Constructed via distant supervision by leveraging document-level metadata and annotated financial databases, MuDABench comprises over 80,000 pages and 332 analytical QA instances. We also propose an evaluation protocol that measures final answer accuracy and uses intermediate-fact coverage as an auxiliary diagnostic signal for the reasoning process. Experiments reveal that standard RAG systems, which treat all documents as a flat retrieval pool, perform poorly. To address these limitations, we propose a multi-agent workflow that orchestrates planning, extraction, and code generation modules. While this approach substantially improves both process and outcome metrics, a significant gap remains compared to human expert performance. Our analysis identifies two primary bottlenecks: single-document information extraction accuracy and insufficient domain-specific knowledge in current systems. MuDABench is available at https://github.com/Zhanli-Li/MuDABench.

Visual search in 3D environments requires embodied agents to actively explore their surroundings and acquire task-relevant evidence. However, existing visual search and embodied AI benchmarks, including EQA, typically rely on static observations or constrained egocentric motion, and thus do not explicitly evaluate fine-grained viewpoint-dependent phenomena that arise under unrestricted 5-DoF viewpoint control in real-world 3D environments, such as visibility changes caused by vertical viewpoint shifts, revealing contents inside containers, and disambiguating object attributes that are only observable from specific angles. To address this limitation, we introduce {E3VS-Bench}, a benchmark for embodied 3D visual search where agents must control their viewpoints in 5-DoF to gather viewpoint-dependent evidence for question answering. E3VS-Bench consists of 99 high-fidelity 3D scenes reconstructed using 3D Gaussian Splatting and 2,014 question-driven episodes. 3D Gaussian Splatting enables photorealistic free-viewpoint rendering that preserves fine-grained visual details (e.g., small text and subtle attributes) often degraded in mesh-based simulators, thereby allowing the construction of questions that cannot be answered from a single view and instead require active inspection across viewpoints in 5-DoF. We evaluate multiple state-of-the-art VLMs and compare their performance with humans. Despite strong 2D reasoning ability, all models exhibit a substantial gap from humans, highlighting limitations in active perception and coherent viewpoint planning specifically under full 5-DoF viewpoint changes.
