MemPro: Agentic Memory Systems as Evolvable Programs

Long-horizon autonomous agents require memory systems to retain historical information, track evolving states, and reuse relevant knowledge beyond finite context windows. Existing agentic memory systems typically follow a memory construction-retrieval (MCR) pipeline, but often adapt mainly the memory bank while keeping the surrounding pipeline fixed after deployment. This fixed-pipeline design struggles to handle heterogeneous task-specific failure modes and can become misaligned with memory banks that evolve in scale and structure over time. To address these limitations, we propose MemPro, a system-level evolution framework that treats the entire MCR pipeline as an evolvable program rather than adapting only the memory bank or prompt text. MemPro maintains a version tree of runnable memory-system implementations, where an Evolving Agent iteratively selects promising versions, diagnoses recurring failures, and creates improved child versions through failure-mode-guided edit-debug refinement. Experiments on LongMemEval, LoCoMo, HotpotQA, and NarrativeQA show that MemPro consistently outperforms strong static and prompt-level evolving baselines within a few iterations, continues to improve with evolution, and achieves a favorable performance-cost trade-off. Code is available at https://github.com/wanghai673/MemPro.

BRIGHT: A Collaborative Generalist-Specialist Foundation Model for Breast Pathology

Generalist pathology foundation models (PFMs), pretrained on large-scale multi-organ datasets, have demonstrated remarkable predictive capabilities across diverse clinical applications. However, their proficiency on the full spectrum of clinically essential tasks within a specific organ system remains an open question due to the lack of large-scale validation cohorts for a single organ as well as the absence of a tailored training paradigm that can effectively translate broad histomorphological knowledge into the organ-specific expertise required for specialist-level interpretation. In this study, we propose BRIGHT, the first PFM specifically designed for breast pathology, trained on over 51,000 breast whole-slide images derived from a cohort of over 40,000 patients across 19 hospitals. BRIGHT employs a collaborative generalist-specialist framework to capture both universal and organ-specific features. To comprehensively evaluate the performance of PFMs on breast oncology, we curate the largest multi-institutional cohorts to date for downstream task development and evaluation, comprising over 25,000 WSIs across 10 hospitals. The validation cohorts cover the full spectrum of breast pathology across 25 distinct clinical tasks spanning diagnosis, biomarker prediction, treatment response and survival prediction. Extensive experiments demonstrate that BRIGHT outperforms five leading generalist PFMs, achieving state-of-the-art (SOTA) performance in 25 of 25 internal validation tasks and in 4 of 11 external validation tasks with excellent heatmap interpretability. By evaluating on large-scale validation cohorts, this study not only demonstrates BRIGHT's clinical utility in breast oncology but also validates a collaborative generalist-specialist paradigm, providing a scalable template for developing PFMs on a specific organ system, accelerating the translation of foundation models into ...

MENTOR: A Metacognition-Driven Self-Evolution Framework for Uncovering and Mitigating Implicit Domain Risks in LLMs

Ensuring the safety of Large Language Models (LLMs) is critical for real-world deployment. However, current safety measures often fail to address implicit, domain-specific risks. To investigate this gap, we introduce a dataset of 3,000 annotated queries spanning education, finance, and management. Evaluations across 14 leading LLMs reveal a concerning vulnerability: an average jailbreak success rate of 57.8\%. In response, we propose MENTOR, a metacognition-driven self-evolution framework. MENTOR performs metacognitive self-assessment, using strategies such as perspective-taking and consequential reasoning to uncover latent model misalignments. MENTOR couples single-pass rule-guided inference for routine requests with a selectively invoked metacognitive evolution cycle that revises residual unsafe responses, distills successful corrections into a dynamic rule graph, and compiles validated rules into activation-level steering signals for future inference. Experiments demonstrate that MENTOR substantially reduces attack success rates across all tested domains and outperforms existing safety alignment methods. The code and dataset for MENTOR are available at: https://anonymous.4open.science/r/MENTOR-Evo.

Eye tracking guided deep multiple instance learning with dual cross-attention for fundus disease detection

Deep neural networks (DNNs) have promoted the development of computer aided diagnosis (CAD) systems for fundus diseases, helping ophthalmologists reduce missed diagnosis and misdiagnosis rate. However, the majority of CAD systems are data-driven but lack of medical prior knowledge which can be performance-friendly. In this regard, we innovatively proposed a human-in-the-loop (HITL) CAD system by leveraging ophthalmologists' eye-tracking information, which is more efficient and accurate. Concretely, the HITL CAD system was implemented on the multiple instance learning (MIL), where eye-tracking gaze maps were beneficial to cherry-pick diagnosis-related instances. Furthermore, the dual-cross-attention MIL (DCAMIL) network was utilized to curb the adverse effects of noisy instances. Meanwhile, both sequence augmentation module and domain adversarial module were introduced to enrich and standardize instances in the training bag, respectively, thereby enhancing the robustness of our method. We conduct comparative experiments on our newly constructed datasets (namely, AMD-Gaze and DR-Gaze), respectively for the AMD and early DR detection. Rigorous experiments demonstrate the feasibility of our HITL CAD system and the superiority of the proposed DCAMIL, fully exploring the ophthalmologists' eye-tracking information. These investigations indicate that physicians' gaze maps, as medical prior knowledge, is potential to contribute to the CAD systems of clinical diseases.

Characterizing and Modeling Control-Plane Traffic for Mobile Core Network

In this paper, we first carry out to our knowledge the first in-depth characterization of control-plane traffic, using a real-world control-plane trace for 37,325 UEs sampled at a real-world LTE Mobile Core Network (MCN). Our analysis shows that control events exhibit significant diversity in device types and time-of-day among UEs. Second, we study whether traditional probability distributions that have been widely adopted for modeling Internet traffic can model the control-plane traffic originated from individual UEs. Our analysis shows that the inter-arrival time of the control events as well as the sojourn time in the UE states of EMM and ECM for the cellular network cannot be modeled as Poisson processes or other traditional probability distributions. We further show that the reasons that these models fail to capture the control-plane traffic are due to its higher burstiness and longer tails in the cumulative distribution than the traditional models. Third, we propose a two-level hierarchical state-machine-based traffic model for UE clusters derived from our adaptive clustering scheme based on the Semi-Markov Model to capture key characteristics of mobile network control-plane traffic -- in particular, the dependence among events generated by each UE, and the diversity in device types and time-of-day among UEs. Finally, we show how our model can be easily adjusted from LTE to 5G to support modeling 5G control-plane traffic, when the sizable control-plane trace for 5G UEs becomes available to train the adjusted model. The developed control-plane traffic generator for LTE/5G networks is open-sourced to the research community to support high-performance MCN architecture design R&D.
