Evaluating Investment Logic in Large Language Models: A Real-World Benchmark Towards Personalzied Financial Agents

Investment competence is inherently personalized: the same market evidence can justify different actions for investors with different goals, horizons, portfolios, and risk boundaries. Yet financial LLMs are evaluated either by static question answering or by terminal profit and loss. The former omits agency; the latter cannot reveal whether a profitable action was grounded, profile-consistent, or merely lucky. We ask whether the community is using the wrong ruler for consequential agents. We introduce \textsc{InvestLogicBench}, a process-native benchmark containing 201,247 documented decisions from 151 real-world investors. Each episode instantiates a \textbf{P$\rightarrow$E$\rightarrow$R$\rightarrow$D$\rightarrow$O} trace: investor \textit{Profile}, observable market \textit{Events}, investment \textit{Reasoning}, executable \textit{Decision}, and delayed \textit{Outcome}. The release includes profile construction, point-in-time event binding, structured logic, horizons, outcomes, and post-mortems, and supports comprehension, profile-conditioned generation, and end-to-end replay. Across four leading LLMs, logical plausibility remains near 4/5 while event grounding is only 0.8--2.8/5; return and process quality also disagree. These results expose polished but weakly grounded reasoning that outcome-only evaluation hides. We further argue that P$\rightarrow$E$\rightarrow$R$\rightarrow$D$\rightarrow$O should be a data-system interface, requiring versioned profiles, temporal provenance, inspectable retrieval, decision ledgers, and replayable outcomes. Finance is our stress test for a broader class of personalized, consequential agents.

Limiting Over-Smoothing and Over-Squashing of Graph Message Passing by Deep Scattering Transforms

Graph neural networks (GNNs) have become pivotal tools for processing graph-structured data, leveraging the message passing scheme as their core mechanism. However, traditional GNNs often grapple with issues such as instability, over-smoothing, and over-squashing, which can degrade performance and create a trade-off dilemma. In this paper, we introduce a discriminatively trained, multi-layer Deep Scattering Message Passing (DSMP) neural network designed to overcome these challenges. By harnessing spectral transformation, the DSMP model aggregates neighboring nodes with global information, thereby enhancing the precision and accuracy of graph signal processing. We provide theoretical proofs demonstrating the DSMP's effectiveness in mitigating these issues under specific conditions. Additionally, we support our claims with empirical evidence and thorough frequency analysis, showcasing the DSMP's superior ability to address instability, over-smoothing, and over-squashing.

Robust Graph Representation Learning for Local Corruption Recovery

The performance of graph representation learning is affected by the quality of graph input. While existing research usually pursues a globally smoothed graph embedding, we believe the rarely observed anomalies are as well harmful to an accurate prediction. This work establishes a graph learning scheme that automatically detects (locally) corrupted feature attributes and recovers robust embedding for prediction tasks. The detection operation leverages a graph autoencoder, which does not make any assumptions about the distribution of the local corruptions. It pinpoints the positions of the anomalous node attributes in an unbiased mask matrix, where robust estimations are recovered with sparsity promoting regularizer. The optimizer approaches a new embedding that is sparse in the framelet domain and conditionally close to input observations. Extensive experiments are provided to validate our proposed model can recover a robust graph representation from black-box poisoning and achieve excellent performance.

Multi-level Protein Representation Learning for Blind Mutational Effect Prediction

Directed evolution plays an indispensable role in protein engineering that revises existing protein sequences to attain new or enhanced functions. Accurately predicting the effects of protein variants necessitates an in-depth understanding of protein structure and function. Although large self-supervised language models have demonstrated remarkable performance in zero-shot inference using only protein sequences, these models inherently do not interpret the spatial characteristics of protein structures, which are crucial for comprehending protein folding stability and internal molecular interactions. This paper introduces a novel pre-training framework that cascades sequential and geometric analyzers for protein primary and tertiary structures. It guides mutational directions toward desired traits by simulating natural selection on wild-type proteins and evaluates the effects of variants based on their fitness to perform the function. We assess the proposed approach using a public database and two new databases for a variety of variant effect prediction tasks, which encompass a diverse set of proteins and assays from different taxa. The prediction results achieve state-of-the-art performance over other zero-shot learning methods for both single-site mutations and deep mutations.
