arXiv:2606. 06238v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We propose a statistical-field framework for text generated by large language models (LLMs), treating token embeddings as continuous spin variables on a one-dimensional chain.
arXiv:2406. 05335v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Generation of text and speech in natural languages can be modeled as a stochastic process.
arXiv:2602. 07488v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Despite the fact that experimental neural scaling laws have substantially guided empirical progress in large-scale machine learning, no existing theory can quantitatively predict the exponents of these important laws for any modern LLM trained on any natural language dataset.
arXiv:2606. 07559v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Fine-tuning a language model on contexts whose correct completion has a near-synonym competitor often fails silently.
arXiv:2510. 05554v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: As large language models scale to longer contexts, attention layers suffer from a fundamental pathology: attention scores collapse toward uniformity as context length $n$ increases, causing tokens to cluster excessively, a phenomenon known as rank-collapse.
arXiv:2606. 07559v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Fine-tuning a language model often fails silently when its correct completion must outrank a near-synonym competitor.
arXiv:2602. 03685v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Training large language models (LLMs) is computationally expensive, partly because the loss exhibits slow power-law convergence whose origin remains debatable.
arXiv:2606. 08417v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Diffusion and continuous flow-based language models have emerged as the leading non-autoregressive alternatives to language modeling.
arXiv:2605. 22864v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: The maximum softmax probability (MSP) represents a default approach when evaluating uncertainty quantification for language model generation with structured output.
arXiv:2607. 20791v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: High-temperature sampling is one of the primary mechanisms for increasing diversity in LLMs.
Neural Collapse predicts that balanced one-hot classification pushes model representations to be equally far from each other; a symmetric configuration that depends only on the output label and ignores any semantic similarity in the inputs. This creates a puzzle: next-token prediction language models are trained predominantly (as context length increases) with one-hot labels: the same context is very unlikely to appear twice in training with different labels.
arXiv:2607. 08377v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Uncertainty quantification is central to the reliable deployment of large language models (LLMs), and eigenvalues of semantic embeddings have recently emerged as a key tool in state-of-the-art methods.
arXiv:2607. 14112v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) are evaluated as though perfect reliability is achievable for any task given sufficient scale.
