Quantization, distillation, pruning and serving work aimed at the same accuracy for less memory, latency and money.
arXiv:2607. 08241v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Deploying classifier-free guidance (CFG) diffusion models under real-world compute budgets requires quantization, yet existing post-training quantization (PTQ) methods treat CFG models as single-branch networks, ignoring the paired conditional/unconditional structure that CFG inference fundamentally relies on.
arXiv:2602. 17686v4 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Distilling Chain-of-Thought (CoT) reasoning from large language models into compact student models presents a fundamental challenge: teacher rationales are often too verbose for smaller models to faithfully reproduce.
arXiv:2512. 16558v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Clustering is a cornerstone of modern data analysis.
arXiv:2607. 08643v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) are increasingly constrained by memory capacity, weight bandwidth, and checkpoint storage during deployment.
arXiv:2607. 08268v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: High-volume structured extraction pays a large model's latency on every item, so distilling the task into a small on-device model is attractive: comparable output at a fraction of the time and cost.
arXiv:2604. 13230v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Exploratory Landscape Analysis (ELA) provides numerical features for characterizing black-box optimization problems.
arXiv:2603. 15136v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Offline safe reinforcement learning (RL) seeks reward-maximizing policies from static datasets under strict safety constraints.
arXiv:2607. 07964v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Post-training quantization (PTQ) is a widely adopted technique for compressing large language models (LLMs) without retraining.
arXiv:2607. 08754v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Low-rank factorization is widely used to compress neural networks, but modern models are often not naturally amenable to aggressive factorization without significant accuracy loss.
arXiv:2511. 13999v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: We study the running time, in terms of first order oracle queries, of differentially private empirical/population risk minimization of Lipschitz convex losses.
arXiv:2607. 07847v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: As large language models (LLMs) become increasingly capable, the next question is how can we enable models to continually learn?
arXiv:2607. 08533v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Understanding perceptual differences between autistic and neurotypical adults requires behavioral assays that are sensitive, reliable, and mechanistically informative.
arXiv:2607. 08406v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Backpropagation (BP) dominates deep learning training, but its reliance on gradients brings inherent troubles -- vanishing and exploding gradients.
arXiv:2607. 08170v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Zero-shot model size interpolation aims to create new models of intermediate target sizes by combining existing models without additional training.
arXiv:2601. 00549v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: The deployment of large-scale neural networks within the Open Radio Access Network (O-RAN) architecture is pivotal for enabling native edge intelligence.
arXiv:2607. 07862v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: The evolution of compute infrastructure has transformed multi-GPU systems into tightly integrated shared-memory structures.
arXiv:2607. 08741v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Generating realistic 3D human motions in real-time within interactive applications is key for animation, simulation, and humanoid robotics.
arXiv:2601. 12145v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Softmax attention struggles with long contexts due to structural limitations: the strict sum-to-one constraint forces attention sinks on irrelevant tokens, and probability mass disperses as sequence lengths increase.
arXiv:2607. 08057v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Despite the rapid advancements of large language models (LLMs), LLM serving systems remain memory-intensive and costly.
arXiv:2607. 08734v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Post-training quantization is widely used to deploy large language models in resource-constrained settings, yet its evaluation relies almost exclusively on accuracy and perplexity.
