CUDA‑Harness is a framework that enables the generation and optimization of CUDA kernels directly from natural language. It introduces Intermediate‑Structured Generation to bridge high‑level semantics with low‑level kernel code, uses Synthesis‑Based Verification to mitigate reward hacking by providing isolated test data, and employs Feedback‑Adaptive Evolution to prioritize correctness while improving performance. Experiments show the approach generalizes across different large language models, hardware platforms, and even supports C‑to‑CUDA transpilation.

Reinforcement Learning with Verifiable Rewards (RLVR) has emerged as a powerful technique to enhance the reasoning capacity of LLMs for optimized code generation. However, existing RLVR approaches primarily rely on outcome-based signals such as correctness and speedup, overlooking performance-critical structural properties of programs that are essential for generating optimized code.

The paper introduces Less Uniform Diffusion (LUDI), a framework that improves uniform diffusion language models by using a less uniform loss and per-token time embeddings to guide reverse transitions and enable confidence-based few-step sampling. Experiments demonstrate that LUDI provides cleaner supervision, enhances few-step generation, and scales to a 7B model (LUDI-7B) that achieves a 3-token-per-step speedup over autoregressive decoding while matching masked diffusion baselines. The work suggests that UDLMs still have untapped potential for complex generation tasks.

CHAI for LLMs is a framework that improves large language models’ performance on code‑mixed translation tasks by using LLMs as annotators to create preference data, applying reinforcement learning from AI feedback, incorporating LLM‑generated domain knowledge for iterative refinement, and evaluating on real‑world datasets. The approach yields a 68.45% average win rate over state‑of‑the‑art open‑source models in human‑adjudicated tests. It demonstrates a scalable method to enhance code‑mixed language understanding in open‑source LLMs.
