NesTools: A Dataset for Evaluating Nested Tool Learning Abilities of Large Language Models

Kavli Affiliate: Xiang Zhang | First 5 Authors: Han Han, Tong Zhu, Xiang Zhang, Mengsong Wu, Hao Xiong | Summary: Large language models (LLMs) combined with tool learning have gained impressive results in real-world applications. During tool learning, LLMs may call multiple tools in nested orders, where the latter tool call may take the former […]

A systematic search for rapid transients in the Subaru HSC-SSP transient survey

Kavli Affiliate: Naoki Yasuda | First 5 Authors: Seiji Toshikage, Masaomi Tanaka, Naoki Yasuda, Takashi J. Moriya, Ichiro Takahashi | Summary: Recent high-cadence transient surveys have discovered rapid transients whose light curve timescales are shorter than those of typical supernovae. In this paper, we present a systematic search for rapid transients at medium-high redshifts among […]
