arXiv:2606. 07577v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Audio-visual large language models (LLMs) hold strong promise for long-form video understanding, yet their long-video inference is fundamentally limited by the linear growth of video tokens and key-value (KV) caches.

arXiv:2606. 07629v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Current approaches to aligning large language models (LLMs) aggregate diverse human preferences into a single reward signal, effectively optimizing for a hypothetical ``average user'' who represents no real person particularly well.

arXiv:2604. 08849v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Many important retrieval problems are not merely problems of semantic similarity, but problems of constraint satisfaction: a retrieved item should be topically relevant to a query and satisfy explicit requirements involving negation, temporal conditions, numeric thresholds, exceptions, ontological relations, and incomplete evidence.
