Quantization, distillation, pruning and serving work aimed at the same accuracy for less memory, latency and money.
arXiv:2608. 13179v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Reinforcement learning with verifiable rewards (RLVR) offers a verifier-bounded performance ceiling for training multi-turn tool-use agents, yet its trajectory-level credit assignment conflates heterogeneous per-turn outcomes into a single reward signal.
arXiv:2412. 17228v4 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Background: Clinical trials are essential to advancing cancer treatments, but fewer than 10% of adults with cancer enroll in therapeutic trials.
arXiv:2608. 12932v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models promise to bring end-to-end reasoning to autonomous driving, but their computational cost remains far too high for real-time control.
arXiv:2502. 17666v5 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Existing offline in-context reinforcement learning (ICRL) methods have predominantly relied on supervised training objectives, which are known to have limitations in offline RL settings.
arXiv:2407. 13911v5 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Prompt-based continual learning has shown strong performance in rehearsal-free class-incremental learning by adapting learnable prompts while freezing a pre-trained Vision Transformer (ViT) backbone.
arXiv:2608. 12953v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Structured pruning is a promising approach for compressing large language models (LLMs), yet existing methods rely heavily on greedy heuristics that produce myopic decisions, and often fail to precisely meet target compression budgets.
arXiv:2608. 12957v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Group Relative Policy Optimization (GRPO) learns from reward differences within a rollout group, but receives no useful relative signal when every sampled response is incorrect.
arXiv:2608. 12854v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Autonomous driving requires planning under both semantic constraints and predictive dynamics.
arXiv:2608. 12146v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Training Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) models for reinforcement learning (RL) couples two load-balancing problems: sequence composition determines dense attention work in each data-parallel microbatch, while token routing determines sparse expert work on expert-parallel ranks.
arXiv:2608. 13061v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: As the feature representation changes, replay must preserve the earlier classes.
arXiv:2608. 12574v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language models increasingly need to generate structured outputs that conform to predefined schemas, with one common constraint being selection from a finite set of valid strings.
arXiv:2607. 27539v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Exact deletion from persistent language-model memory depends on whether a record's effect remains addressable after later computation.
arXiv:2506. 13452v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Background and Objective: As Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) advances toward directional leads and optimization-based current steering, selecting electrode contact configurations becomes complex.
Speculative decoding losslessly accelerates autoregressive language models by verifying multiple draft tokens in parallel. Diffusion-based drafters further reduce proposal latency by predicting an entire token block in parallel, but their position-wise distributions are marginal rather than conditioned on tokens selected along each draft path.
On-policy distillation (OPD) supervises a student language model on trajectories sampled from its current policy, but assigns equal credit to response tokens with unequal supervision value. Selective OPD addresses this limitation by allocating supervision non-uniformly across response tokens according to their estimated training value.
Local chemical perception and property reasoning are both essential for understanding how molecular structure determines properties. Current LLM-based chemical reasoning methods either receive SMILES/molecular images together with descriptions of local motifs, or reason directly from molecular images.
While 3D Vision-Language Models (3D VLMs) have demonstrated remarkable spatial reasoning capabilities, they suffer from massive visual token counts that create severe computational bottlenecks during inference. Existing token pruning methods primarily rely on diversity-based selection, discarding similar tokens to maximize dispersion.
Infrared-visible image fusion (IVIF) is pivotal for multimodal perception, yet reconciling the inherent information disparity between thermal and textural features remains a fundamental challenge. Existing prior-guided methods often rely on static constraints that induce optimization conflicts or utilize extrinsic semantic priors from large-scale foundation models (e.
Enabling agents to learn from experience and internalize it into their policy has become a central problem in self-evolving AI. On-policy self-distillation (OPSD) offers an effective pathway by using a privileged self-teacher to provide dense supervision on the student's own trajectories; however, existing methods still rely heavily on designer-specified privileged artifacts (e.
Score Distillation Sampling (SDS) enables text-to-3D generation by optimizing rendered images with a pretrained diffusion prior, but latent SDS often produces structured color artifacts and high-frequency texture noise. We identify a failure mode of latent SDS caused by VAE-induced pixel drift: the optimized image can move along pixel-space directions that are weakly constrained by the VAE encoder, so its latent representation remains clean and semantically meaningful while the image itself accumulates visible artifacts.
