The paper introduces Open-1B, a language model trained under a new fully auditable regime that ensures every training operation is reproducible on heterogeneous commodity hardware with bitwise certainty. By enforcing a fixed order on sources of nondeterminism—GPU reductions, data batch ordering, and inter/intra-node communication—the authors enable auditors to replay and verify individual training steps on a single machine. The release includes the full pretraining dataset, all intermediate checkpoints, the training codebase, and an audit harness for step-by-step verification.

arXiv:2608. 01975v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large language model (LLM) inference has evolved from an offline workload into a continuously operated software service, yet root-cause analysis remains difficult because a single request spans the inference engine, Python/C++ backend, host CUDA APIs, GPU kernels, and distributed communication.

arXiv:2602. 09689v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Fine-tuning large pre-trained models on a target distribution often improves in-distribution (ID) accuracy, but at the cost of out-of-distribution (OOD) robustness as representations specialize to the fine-tuning data.

The paper introduces the Denoising Workload Surface (DWS), a two‑dimensional probability surface that captures the block‑autoregressive generation structure of diffusion large language models (dLLMs). By preserving both output block and within‑block denoising step information, DWS enables a lightweight, prompt‑only predictor to estimate per‑request inference cost accurately, even on a single CPU core. In real‑world serving experiments, DWS reduces cost‑prediction error by up to 2.5× and improves end‑to‑end latency for online chatbots by up to 1.92×.

arXiv:2607. 08241v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Deploying classifier-free guidance (CFG) diffusion models under real-world compute budgets requires quantization, yet existing post-training quantization (PTQ) methods treat CFG models as single-branch networks, ignoring the paired conditional/unconditional structure that CFG inference fundamentally relies on.

arXiv:2607. 24762v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Machine learning models are increasingly embedded in everyday software, and most of their runtime is spent in a small set of compute kernels such as matrix multiplication, convolution, and normalization.

arXiv:2605. 06890v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: AI agents are promising for high-stakes enterprise workflows, but dependable deployment remains limited because tool-use failures are difficult to diagnose and control.

arXiv:2606. 24173v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: On-device fault detection enables real-time diagnostics without cloud dependency, but deploying machine learning models on resource-constrained hardware demands careful tradeoffs between accuracy, latency, and model size.
