The paper investigates how inference optimization for large language models can introduce numerical inconsistencies that trigger hidden backdoors. It introduces two types of optimization‑triggered backdoors: the Input‑Specific Optimization Backdoor (ISOB) and the Universal Optimization Backdoor (UOB), the latter enabling a model to remain benign under normal execution but activate a backdoor when optimization is applied. Experiments on seven open‑source LLMs, across multiple tasks and optimization backends, show UOB can achieve up to 100% attack success while maintaining clean accuracy, and the authors propose three defenses that reduce the attack success rate to 0.02.

The paper introduces NinaXander, a method for composing frozen language models from different architecture families by inserting a trained shared‑latent adapter between their layers. By running the initial layers of one model, converting the intermediate representation with the adapter, and then continuing with the remaining layers of another model, multiple composed models can be created without retraining. Experiments with RWKV and Pythia show that while some compositions preserve syntactic quality and reduce memory usage, none match the parent model’s accuracy and language‑modeling performance drops on out‑of‑domain data.
The paper investigates how conversational safety in language models degrades over extended, adversarial interactions. By testing three instruction‑tuned models with persistent adversarial users across up to 101 turns, the study finds that safe‑response rates drop sharply from 85–100% at the first turn to 15–44% by the end. This demonstrates that strong single‑turn safety does not guarantee continued safety in long conversations.

StateTree is a reinforcement learning approach that improves long‑term dialogue reasoning by building a tree‑structured auxiliary task from limited dialogue data. The method embeds key‑value records across multiple sessions into a binary tree, requiring the model to traverse from root to leaf, retrieve records, compare timestamps, and identify a target question among distractors. Curriculum RL training increases tree depth, and a compositional variant trains the model to combine partial reasoning fragments, enabling cross‑session retrieval, temporal reasoning, knowledge updates, and multi‑hop reasoning while generalizing from 10K‑token to 128K‑token contexts.
