arXiv:2610.22160v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Test-time context optimization adapts frozen language models through textual feedback, but ordinary conditional generation provides no separate control over how strongly to reinforce the distributional changes induced by a context update. We introduce EMO, a training-free framework inspired by expectation--maximization that alternates question-specific context estimation (E-step) and distribution refinement (M-step). The E-step revises a system context using textual gradients from an external judge without access to gold answers. The M-step con
