TELLER: Non-intrusive Cross-Layer Root-Cause Analysis for LLM Inference

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.

Root-Cause Attribution Is a Search Problem: Continual Search for Long-Horizon Agent Failures

The paper introduces Continual Search, an iterative framework that guides large language models to persistently search for diagnostic evidence in long AI agent execution logs, addressing the limitations of one-shot judgments. Evaluated on four existing RCA benchmarks and a new large-scale dataset called MegaRCA-Mix, Continual Search consistently boosts attribution performance, achieving a 40% F1 improvement for GPT‑5.5 on MegaRCA‑Mix. The results show that effective search can outweigh raw model scale, enabling lower-tier models to outperform higher-tier ones in root‑cause attribution tasks.

Learning to Predict, Discover, and Reason in High-Dimensional Event Sequences

The paper proposes a new framework for automated fault diagnostics in modern vehicles by treating diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) as a high‑dimensional language. It introduces Transformer‑based models for predictive maintenance, scalable causal discovery methods, and a multi‑agent system that automatically generates Boolean error‑pattern rules. The approach aims to replace costly manual grouping of DTCs with scalable, data‑driven techniques.
