TimeInteract introduces a new regime called Time-Series Interaction, enabling models to continuously perceive incoming time-series data and user intent, decide when to respond, and keep processing new observations during response generation. The system employs a dual-view streaming encoder, a response control mechanism, and a decoupled inference pipeline to avoid blocking. Evaluated on the newly created StreamTSI-34K dataset, TimeInteract outperforms existing LLMs, VLMs, and TSLMs across four interaction levels, achieving significant gains in accuracy, response triggering, and inference speed.

Zephon is a data loader designed for foundation model training that ensures deterministic ordering of training data batches even when GPU resources change, checkpoints are resumed, or different processing backends are used. It handles online, stateful pipelines—where tokenization, packing, and mixing of samples create complex n‑to‑m transformations—by partitioning the data stream into topology‑independent lanes, serializing ordering decisions, and checkpointing only bounded in‑flight state. Experiments on text and vision‑language tasks show Zephon delivers competitive throughput while offering guarantees that existing loaders lack for such pipelines.
