Geometry-Aware Diffusion Guidance via Curvature-Adaptive Tubular Correction

Gradient-guided diffusion samplers provide flexible priors for inverse problems and conditional generation, but strong guidance can move the sampling trajectory into regions where the learned score is poorly supported. Existing tangent-projection strategies limit first-order departure from an iso-density surface, yet discard potentially useful normal motion and overlook the second-order departure induced by tangent motion on a curved surface. We introduce curvature-adaptive tubular correction (CAT), a training-free plugin that regulates both effects within a shared, noise-dependent geometric budget. CAT decomposes the guidance gradient into normal and tangent components, charges normal displacement at first order and tangent displacement according to directional curvature, and obtains their jointly optimal magnitudes from a one-dimensional dual equation. Armijo backtracking calibrates the resulting finite step against the actual guidance objective, while matrix-free directional derivatives avoid constructing the full score Jacobian. We establish local guarantees for the tubular approximation, uniqueness of the correction, and sufficient objective decrease. Across seven inverse problems on FFHQ and ImageNet, CAT improves the evaluated pixel- and latent-space host samplers, with particularly consistent gains in perceptual metrics. It also improves black hole reconstruction on InverseBench and yields the lowest FID among the compared methods at every tested classifier-free guidance scale, while maintaining stable saturation and contrast. These results support curvature-aware tubular control as a reusable mechanism for stabilizing diffusion guidance.

IFAR: Multi-Perspective and Multi-Level Causal Discovery with LLMs

Large language models (LLMs) have developed rapidly, and their reasoning capabilities have become a hot research topic. However, there is still limited exploration of abductive reasoning. The multi-perspective and multi-level of causes is one of the core challenges of abductive reasoning, which cannot be solved well by existing methods. We construct a specialized dataset named DeepAbduction, which is designed for tracing the causes of pollution and disease, addressing the lack of datasets in this field. We propose Inverse-Forward Abductive Reasoning (IFAR) framework for LLMs multi-perspective and multi-level abductive reasoning. IFAR is zero-shot and combines generalized backward reasoning with relation-by-relation forward verification. Experimental results show that IFAR achieves an improvement of approximately 40% in the F1 score compared to other methods under mainstream LLMs, while maintaining a balance between recall and precision. Furthermore, IFAR enhances the performance of non-reasoning LLMs to surpass LLMs which have been trained for reasoning, and remains effective when applied to the latter. Code will be released after the acceptance of our work.

Requesting Expert Reasoning: Augmenting LLM Agents with Learned Collaborative Intervention

Large Language Model (LLM) based agents excel at general reasoning but often fail in specialized domains where success hinges on long-tail knowledge absent from their training data. While human experts can provide this missing knowledge, their guidance is often unstructured and unreliable, making its direct integration into an agent's plan problematic. To address this, we introduce AHCE (Active Human-Augmented Challenge Engagement), a framework for on-demand Human-AI collaboration. At its core, the Human Feedback Module (HFM) employs a learned policy to treat the human expert as an interactive reasoning tool. Extensive experiments in Minecraft demonstrate the framework's effectiveness, increasing task success rates by 32% on normal difficulty tasks and nearly 70% on highly difficult tasks, all with minimal human intervention. Our work demonstrates that successfully augmenting agents requires learning how to request expert reasoning, moving beyond simple requests for help.
