K-Forcing: Joint Next-K-Token Decoding via Push-Forward Language Modeling

Autoregressive (AR) language modeling is the dominant paradigm for text generation, yet its sequential token-by-token decoding makes inference memory-bound and inefficient. Existing acceleration approaches, such as speculative decoding and diffusion language models, can yield speedups under certain conditions but do not directly address high-load batch serving--the scenario most critical for industrial-scale deployment.

Closing the Modality Gap in Zero-Shot HAR: Contrastive Training and Separability-Optimized Prototypes on IMU Data

Zero-shot learning (ZSL) for inertial measurement unit (IMU)-based human activity recognition (HAR) faces a central challenge: bridging the gap between sensor embeddings and semantic class representations. We systematically evaluate seven configurations combining three inference methods with two training pipelines on the PAMAP2 dataset, using 14 seen and 4 unseen activity classes with subjects 108 and 109 held out for testing.

Dynamic Linear Attention

The scalability of Large Language Models (LLMs) to long contexts is fundamentally constrained by the quadratic complexity of standard attention, motivating the adoption of linear attention mechanisms with sub-quadratic cost. To improve representation capacity under long contexts, recent approaches organize memory in a multi-state manner.

Geometry-Aware Reinforcement Learning for 2D Irregular Nesting

Traditional heuristic solvers for the 2D irregular nesting problem share a fundamental limitation: they are blind to polygon geometry, relying on guided brute-force to navigate the continuous placement space with minimal geometrical guidance. In this paper, we argue that Reinforcement Learning is uniquely positioned to overcome this bottleneck.

One Token per Multimodal Evidence: Latent Memory for Resource-Constrained QA

External memory effectively grounds large language models (LLMs) and vision-language models (VLMs)-based question answering (QA) in relevant multimodal evidence. However, existing memory paradigms represent each memory item in raw text and image forms, so retrieval-based systems must pass the retrieved text or images to the generation LLMs/VLMs, resulting in high token consumption and storage pressure, making it unaffordable for resource-constrained applications.

Prefilling-dLLM: Predictive Prefilling for Long-Context Inference in Diffusion Language Models

Diffusion large language models (dLLMs) re-encode the entire prefix at every denoising step, causing recomputation that scales quadratically with context length and becomes prohibitive for long-context scenarios. We propose Prefilling-dLLM, a training-free prefill-decode disaggregation framework for dLLMs that partitions the prefix into N chunks, caches their KV representations once, and selects the top-K most relevant chunks with intra-chunk token sparsity for decoding, showing that sparse prefilling can outperform dense attention while reducing per-step complexity from quadratic in the full sequence length to quadratic only in the decode length.

Geometric Coastline Localization using Vision-Language Models

Coastline detection in remote sensing imagery is commonly formulated as a pixel-wise segmentation problem, where the final coastline is extracted from a predicted mask through post-processing. This formulation relegates coastline geometry, the primary representation used in coastal change analysis, to a secondary artifact rather than the learning objective.

FOGO: Forgetting-aware Orthogonalization Optimizer

We argue that forgetting is not confined to continual learning but is a general optimization phenomenon: during standard training, dominant mini-batch gradients suppress rare but useful update directions, causing short-term forgetting at every step. When such knowledge is never revisited, these losses compound into long-term forgetting-the classical failure mode of continual learning.

TRACER: Token ReAssignment for Concept ERasure in Generative Recommendation

arXiv:2606. 07688v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Generative recommendation formulates next-item prediction as autoregressive generation over semantic ID (SID) sequences derived from users' historical interactions, making modern recommender systems structurally similar to large language models (LLMs).

Rosetta Memory: Adaptive Memory for Cross-LLM Agents

arXiv:2606. 07711v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Memory is the key component for transforming a stateless LLM into a persistent, evolving agent through experience accumulation, long-horizon planning, and continual self-improvement.
