| Challenge: | Recent advances in Deep Research Agents (DRAs) are transforming automated knowledge discovery and problem-solving. |
| Approach: | They propose an inference-time scaling of verification wherein an agent self-improves at test time by evaluating its generated answers. |
| Outcome: | The proposed model outperforms vanilla agent-as-judge and LLM judge baselines by 12%–48% in meta-evaluation F1 score. |
