MentorPulse introduces a method for refreshing cross‑model latent guidance during long‑form generation. By compressing mentor states into a capped slot memory and updating it incrementally as new tokens are generated, the approach keeps the guidance signal fresh without resetting the student’s KV cache. Across thirteen datasets, MentorPulse closes more than half of the mentor‑student performance gap, outperforming existing techniques such as C2C, T2T, and LoRA, especially on long outputs.
arXiv:2607. 14952v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: A growing gap separates inference context lengths from RL post-training: inference systems are approaching million-token contexts, while post-training workloads often remain at 256K tokens or below and rely on length generalization at deployment.
arXiv:2608. 08878v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Transformer-based large language models (LLMs) achieve strong performance across many tasks, but their Key-Value (KV) cache grows linearly with sequence length, creating a severe memory bottleneck for long-context inference.
GEAR is a two‑stage framework that distills tabular foundation models into lightweight MLP or tree‑based predictors for efficient CPU deployment. In the first stage, synthetic covariates are used as teacher‑query locations to train the student on soft TFM targets, expanding coverage beyond observed rows. The second stage re‑anchors the student to the target distribution using real labels and out‑of‑fold teacher predictions, preventing self‑labeling leakage and improving performance. Experiments on TALENT and TabArena show that GEAR‑distilled MLPs outperform supervised MLPs by up to 2.00 AUC points on binary tasks and 1.35 on multiclass tasks, and also outperform CatBoost, while dramatically reducing inference time and memory usage.
