MechMath Agent Team: LLM Driven Agents for Mathematical Research2607.04394AuthorsJunqi Liu,Jiaqi Wang,Dakai Guo,Ruyong Feng,Lihong Zhiand 3 moreAbstractAI reasoning has become a central focus in contemporary artificial intelligence, largely driven by the success of large language models. However, mathematical research, which is characterized by non-linear derivation paths, rigorous logical requirements, and protracted exploration cycles, poses severe challenges for existing reasoning systems. To overcome these limitations, we present the MechMath Agent Team (MMAT), which is a large language model driven agent designed to serve as a co-pilot throughout the full cycle of mathematical research. We design a tripartite Harness Architecture that decouples system responsibilities into Control, Execution, and Augmentation planes, thereby reconciling rigorous logical control with the agility demanded by open-ended research. Building upon this framework, we instantiate three specialized agents: a Knowledge Base Manager, a Natural Language Prover, and a Formal Language Prover, all operating in a closed loop to produce formally certified mathematical proofs. We evaluate MMAT on open problems in Number Theory, Algebraic Complexity Theory, Differential Algebra, Operator Algebra, and Inequalities. Across a two-month deployment, 11 problems have been solved, demonstrating its capacity to act as a co-pilot throughout the entire research cycle. The contributions are threefold: a general decoupled Harness Architecture for multi-agent mathematical reasoning, its concrete instantiation in the MMAT system, and empirical validation on a diverse suite of open problems.ResourcesView on Hugging FaceRead PDFArXiv

Learning 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

Tracing 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
