arXiv:2607. 18323v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Exhaustive site-by-site interventions on a neural network's computational graph -- activation-patching sweeps, circuit-discovery searches, systematic ablation studies -- mutate the graph at every candidate site, and their cost is dominated by recomputation after each mutation.
arXiv:2607. 16568v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Function-preserving network growth techniques such as Net2Net and progressive stacking expand a model's capacity without destroying its learned function, but existing formulations either tolerate numerical perturbations or require a full rebuild of the training program.
arXiv:2607. 20594v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: When does a weight-tied looped transformer -- one block applied T times -- implement an actual algorithm?
arXiv:2603. 02510v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: The transition from sequential to parallel computing is essential for modern high-performance applications but is hindered by the steep learning curve of concurrent programming.
arXiv:2606. 07404v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: This paper reports on training a hundred-billion-parameter sparse mixture of experts on a single eight-GPU node, end to end.
arXiv:2607. 18921v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Circuit extraction identifies a small set of model components whose presence preserves a target behavior under ablation, and the resulting circuit is often read as the mechanism behind that behavior.
arXiv:2604. 17324v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Global self-attention drives modern graph transformers, yet the softmax at its core imposes a structural constraint rarely examined directly: every attention row is non-negative and sums to one, so each per-head output is a mass-conserving convex combination of value vectors.
arXiv:2605. 23393v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Mechanistic interpretability of transformers requires identifying not just which components matter but how they compose into the computational route that produced a prediction.
arXiv:2606. 18284v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: The limiting resource for training agents via reinforcement learning (RL) is increasingly frontier task supply: valid, solvable tasks just difficult enough to train the current model.
arXiv:2608. 00029v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: The performance of deep learning models at scale relies heavily on how effectively high-level mathematical operations are mapped to underlying physical hardware.
arXiv:2603. 02462v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: A key challenge in developing unified neural solvers for combinatorial optimization (CO) is the efficient generalization of models from a given set of tasks to new tasks unseen during initial training.
arXiv:2606. 13705v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Yes.
arXiv:2606. 01838v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Agentic language model systems alternate between two structurally distinct step types: structured tool calls (short, deterministic, low perplexity) and open-ended planning/reasoning steps (long, complex, high perplexity).
