Length-MAX Tokenizer for Language Models

arXiv:2511. 20849v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We introduce a new tokenizer for language models that minimizes the average tokens per character, thereby reducing the number of tokens needed to represent text during training and to generate text during inference.

T-LoopFormer: Token-Level Elastic-Depth Looped Transformers for Latent Reasoning with Dynamic Routing

T-LoopFormer introduces token-level elastic-depth looped transformers that allow each token to decide its own number of loop iterations based on its hidden state, improving token generation accuracy. It also adds a recursion-wise key‑value cache so tokens at different depths only attend to their corresponding cached states, speeding up autoregressive decoding. Experiments demonstrate strong performance on language modeling and zero‑shot reasoning, achieving the lowest decoding latency among comparable models.

Harbor Adapters and Harbor-Index: Infrastructure and a Curated Meta-Dataset for Large-Scale Agentic Evaluation

Harbor Adapters is a unified evaluation infrastructure that ports over 80 agentic benchmarks, enabling arbitrary agents to be tested across complex environments. The authors performed a large‑scale evaluation of 8 models on 54 benchmarks, using Terminus‑2 and three native harnesses, revealing detailed agent capabilities and failure modes. They also created Harbor‑Index, a curated set of 82 challenging tasks from 29 benchmarks, designed to be affordable yet comprehensive, with the best model achieving a 28.0% pass rate.
