AIDE: Automated Instruction via Distilled Expertise for Reference-Free Motor Skill Coaching2608.03047AuthorsYoshiki ItoAbstractGenerating natural-language coaching feedback on motor skills can accelerate learning, yet expert coaches are scarce and expensive. Existing reference-based methods require expert demonstrations at both training and inference time, limiting practical deployment. We propose AIDE (Automated Instruction via Distilled Expertise), a framework that exploits expert references only during training and generates feedback from a learner's pose sequence alone at inference. A teacher model first learns to generate feedback from paired learner-expert poses via a frozen language model, producing separate learner tokens and difference tokens that encode the learner-expert difference. A student model then inherits the teacher's encoder and weight initialization, replacing the explicit expert comparison with an auxiliary module that produces complementary tokens from the learner's pose alone. On the ExpertAF dataset, AIDE outperforms reference-free baselines on most metrics and performs comparably to methods requiring expert demonstrations at both training and inference, with LLM-based evaluation supporting these findings.ResourcesView on Hugging FaceRead PDFArXiv

ResearchLearning When to Trust via Selective Context Preference Optimization
Language models increasingly condition their answers on external signals, and a single misleading one can turn a correct answer wrong. The obvious remedy, training models to resist such signals, hides a failure mode: a model that ignores all context looks robust yet is useless when the context is worth trusting. We recast the problem as selective trust and introduce MIST, a human-annotated benchmark that renders each reasoning item under four matched conditions (clean, misleading, correct-context, and irrelevant-context), together with SC2W, a paired metric counting how often a misle

ResearchTracing the Heart: An Evidence-Linked Pipeline for Heart-Failure Feature Engineering
Electronic health record (EHR) feature engineering is a major bottleneck in clinical research and AI, accounting for 39-45% of data scientists' workload. This is especially pronounced in heart failure, which affects an estimated 6.7 million U.S. adults and requires integrating fragmented EHR data with disease-specific, guideline-based clinical reasoning. Existing rule-based and large language model (LLM)-based approaches offer only partial automation with limited maintainability and evidence traceability. We developed the Nimblemind Multi-Agent System (nMAS), an evidence-linked, rubr
