The next generation of mobile networks is envisioned as fully AI-native, with AI-RAN architectures embedding small language models (SLMs) to perform reasoning over real-time telemetry. The state-of-th...
The paper introduces CRAFT, a data‑centric fine‑tuning approach that aligns small language models (SLMs) for pre‑hoc reasoning in AI‑native 6G radio access networks (RAN). By automatically generating verified (input, trace, label) triplets and fine‑tuning with low‑rank adaptation, CRAFT achieves high accuracy and F1 scores on TRACTOR and IC xApp datasets while avoiding parse failures that plague RL methods like GRPO. It also reduces energy consumption by 59% compared to GRPO baselines, offering a more sustainable path to auditable AI in 6G RAN.
arXiv:2606. 08471v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Recently, language models have made rapid progress across various domains and applications.
SpecQuant is a training‑free framework that merges speculative decoding with multi‑parent quantization to enable adaptive, efficient inference of large language models. It generates several quantized variants (INT4, FP8, FP16) from a single base model and routes queries to the appropriate variant based on predicted complexity, using lightweight models for simple tasks and full‑precision models for complex reasoning. Evaluations on Qwen2.5 models across MMLU, AlpacaEval, and GSM8K show 35‑43% speedups with less than 2% accuracy loss, facilitating practical on‑device LLM deployment without specialized infrastructure.
