The paper introduces Independent Token Sampling (ITS), a query‑efficient method for detecting memorized training data in diffusion large language models (dLLMs). ITS selects token sets with weak internal dependency by approximating cumulative conditional mutual information using an attention‑derived pairwise dependency proxy and promotes diversity across sampling rounds. Experiments show ITS outperforms existing baselines, improving AUC by 0.18 on the ArXiv dataset while remaining effective under limited query budgets.
The paper introduces CASP-LLM, a coverage‑aware semantic prompting framework that mitigates bias toward dominant temporal patterns in prompt‑based time series forecasting. Unlike traditional similarity‑based retrieval that selects top‑K candidates by cosine similarity, CASP‑LLM uses usage‑tracking and a saturating‑gate regularizer to diversify prompt selection without adding learnable parameters. Experiments on six long‑term and the M4 short‑term benchmarks show that CASP‑LLM matches or outperforms similarity‑based LLM forecasters in most settings, with failures traced to cross‑batch usage rather than within‑retrieval redundancy.

arXiv:2606. 18650v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: As Large Language Model (LLM) datasets scale to trillions of tokens, data selection has emerged as a critical frontier to filter out uninformative noise and construct adaptive learning trajectories.
arXiv:2610.14028v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Data selection for LLM fine-tuning faces two facts about real training: data pools draw from many distinct domains, and evaluation spans diverse task...
The paper introduces LARE, a method that adjusts domain weights during large language model pretraining by reweighting losses based on running loss statistics, rather than altering data exposure. Experiments on a 1.5B model trained with 240B tokens show that LARE improves performance across five benchmarks, achieving significant gains on GSM8K (+17.06 pp) and MATH (+9.00 pp). The approach demonstrates that balancing loss scales can enhance joint capabilities without increasing domain exposure.
