LoRA, PEFT, instruction tuning and domain adaptation — adapting a pretrained model without paying to train one.
arXiv:2608. 05250v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Multi-task supervised fine-tuning (SFT) often casts a heterogeneous data mixture as a single optimization problem, even though different tasks may reach their best generalization at different times.
arXiv:2512. 14751v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Finetuning pretrained large language models (LLMs) has become the standard paradigm for developing downstream applications.
arXiv:2608. 05315v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Electroencephalography (EEG) based Brain-Computer Interfaces (BCIs) often require unsupervised domain adaptation (UDA) to generalize across subjects and sessions.
arXiv:2608. 05168v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language models often fail on reasoning tasks despite possessing the capability to solve them.
arXiv:2608. 05891v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Mobile GUI agents can operate apps through pixel perception and touch actions, making them a promising interface for collecting and improving long-horizon mobile interaction policies.
arXiv:2608. 05242v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: In this work, we explore an alternative paradigm for spatial reasoning by explicitly disentangling 3D perception from reasoning, rather than jointly acquiring implicit 3D perception and reasoning through large-scale training.
arXiv:2608. 05783v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Machine unlearning has become a critical capability for safely removing specific, sensitive knowledge from large language models (LLMs).
arXiv:2608. 05813v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Personalizing language models (LMs) to individual user preferences is essential for aligning responses with diverse goals and backgrounds.
arXiv:2608. 05975v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: In this paper, we present TRACE (Tokenized Robust Attention for Contact-Aware Estimation), an end-to-end learned proprioceptive odometry estimator for legged robots under unreliable contact conditions.
arXiv:2608. 05224v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language models fine-tuned on human behavioural data have emerged as general-purpose cognitive proxies, but the scale this requires, and whether these models process task structure or exploit statistical shortcuts, remain open questions.
arXiv:2608. 06046v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: AI training workloads are growing rapidly, making their time, energy, and infrastructure costs increasingly important.
arXiv:2608. 06259v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Reaction yield prediction remains challenging because labeled data are scarce and reaction space is both combinatorially large and sparsely populated, limiting the generalization of existing reaction representations.
End-to-end document parsers provide a unified interface, but serialize page layouts and regional contents into one autoregressive sequence. This formulation forces independent regions onto a decoding path whose length grows with the total content, whereas crop-based two-stage parsers expose region-level parallelism at the cost of repeated visual prefills and fragmented page context.
Composition, the deliberate arrangement of visual elements, is central to how meaning, emotion, and aesthetic quality are conveyed in artwork, yet it remains among the least formalized dimensions of visual understanding. Prior work highlights a persistent gap in learning meaningful compositional representations, attributing it to semantic bias and suggesting that human-inspired approaches may be key.
In this paper, we present TRACE (Tokenized Robust Attention for Contact-Aware Estimation), an end-to-end learned proprioceptive odometry estimator for legged robots under unreliable contact conditions. The proposed estimator directly predicts relative displacement, relative rotation, and body-frame velocity from a recent history of onboard inertial and joint measurements.
We report operational experience full-fine-tuning a 32. 76B-parameter dense model (Qwen3-32B) on 16 x NVIDIA B300 (two nodes, FSDP / ZeRO-3) -- among the first published field accounts on this accelerator.
Single-cell transcriptomes are sparse observations of coordinated biological programmes, yet most self-supervised models learn by reconstructing individual genes. Here we present BioM-JEPA, a joint-embedding predictive architecture that instead predicts aggregate representations of graph-connected gene blocks defined by protein-association and corpus-derived coexpression evidence.
Whole-slide image (WSI) reasoning requires an agent to sequentially acquire visual evidence before answering a diagnostic question. Existing training-free agentic frameworks formulate this process as iterative patch retrieval based on semantic relevance to the question.
Subliminal Learning (SL) is a surprising type of generalization displayed by modern language models. It allows the transfer of a bias or behavior from a teacher model to a student by distilling from seemingly unrelated or random synthetic data from the teacher.
World models enable agents to perform forward rollout and planning without real-world interaction. However, their application in open-world embodied intelligence remains limited by the high cost of action annotations and the heterogeneity of action spaces across platforms.
