arXiv:2606. 04238v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Aggressive weight quantization to 2-bit precision offers substantial throughput and memory gains for large language model (LLM) inference, but typically incurs severe accuracy degradation.
arXiv:2606. 04419v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: MRI provides excellent soft-tissue contrast without ionizing radiation, but long acquisition times increase patient discomfort while also raising exam costs and limiting scanner throughput.

arXiv:2606. 04063v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Deploying large language models (LLMs) is challenging due to their significant memory and computational requirements.
arXiv:2606. 04434v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Multimodal In-Context Learning (ICL) has emerged as a practical inference paradigm for Multimodal Large Language Models, where a small set of interleaved image-text In-Context Demonstrations (ICDs) conditions the model to solve new tasks.
arXiv:2606. 04522v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Approximate nearest neighbor (ANN) search has become a core primitive in information retrieval and modern machine learning tasks, from classification to retrieval-augmented generation.
Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) models achieve strong performance through conditional computation, but their large parameter footprint poses deployment challenges. Prior MoE compression approaches catastrophically fail when evaluated on general-purpose benchmarks beyond commonsense reasoning.
Large language models are increasingly evaluated by other models, raising a natural question: can a model predict how a judge will score its own output? We find that the ability is largely present before any targeted training: prompted few-shot, a base model already predicts an external judge's multi-attribute quality scores on open-ended responses well above chance across three benchmarks.
Diffusion large language models (DLLMs) have recently emerged as a promising alternative to autoregressive LLMs by generating text through iterative masked denoising with bidirectional context. However, their large model sizes and iterative denoising process introduce substantial memory and computational overhead, motivating post-training quantization for efficient deployment.
Post-training Small Language Models (SLMs) for reasoning typically follows an SFT-then-RL pipeline, yet existing work rarely considers what data should be learned at each stage. We argue that data strategy should be aligned with the distinct roles of SFT and RL: SFT is better suited for acquiring not-yet-mastered reasoning skills, while RL is better suited for consolidating skills that the model can already partially access.
arXiv:2606. 03620v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Self-distilled policy optimization (SDPO) has become a popular paradigm for LLM post-training, where a model learns from its own predictions conditioned on privileged information.
arXiv:2606. 03091v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Sequential recommendation systems are widely adopted but often deployed as black-box APIs, which has driven recent interest in model extraction to replicate their capabilities locally.
arXiv:2606. 03212v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Low-rank tensor decomposition (TD) is usually effective on clean, fully observed data, but it often degrades under severe missingness or noise.

arXiv:2606. 03928v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Reasoning models improve accuracy through extended chains of thought, but their long outputs create a memory and compute bottleneck.
