DREAMS: Density Functional Theory Based Research Engine for Agentic Materials Simulation

arXiv:2507. 14267v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Large language model (LLM) agents can execute long-horizon scientific workflows, but their numerical outputs are difficult to trust: agents lose context, game verification checks, and can produce large volumes of plausible yet invalid results.

Diffuse to Compress: Leveraging Diffusion LMs for Lossless Compression

arXiv:2608. 11249v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We study the problem of lossless text compression, motivated by the rapid growth in the collection and storage of digital textual data - including plain text, source code, and structured formats such as XML - and by recent advances in neural language model-based compression.

SCOPE: Subspace Clustering with Online Per-Head Top-K Estimation for Sparse Video Attention

Diffusion Transformers (DiTs) incur quadratic self-attention cost over spatiotemporal tokens. Existing training-free sparse attention methods often construct sparse masks from block-level or cluster-level proxy scores, which can obscure fine-grained differences among keys and miss high contribution keys under aggressive sparsity.
