1. **[DORA: A Dual-Objective Reinforcement Learning Framework for Effective and Efficient Multimodal Agentic Search](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/qin-2026-dora-dual-objective-reinforcement-learning/)** *(2026)* Multimodal LLMs trained with reinforcement learning can call search engines while answering knowledge-heavy visual questions.
2. **[From Past To Path: Masked History Learning for Next-Item Prediction in Generative Recommendation](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/wei-2026-past-path-masked-history-learning/)** *(2026)* Generative recommenders produce semantic item IDs one step at a time. This left-to-right training tends to anchor them on the most recent interactions and miss longer-range user intent. To counter this, the authors introduce Masked History Learning (MHL), which changes how decoder-only generative models are trained.…
