arXiv:2607. 10202v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Cross-model comparisons read divergence in value dispositions as evidence that language models hold individuated values.

arXiv:2506. 21833v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Forward-mode automatic differentiation (FmAD) and zero-order (ZO) optimization are increasingly proposed as memory-efficient, backpropagation-free alternatives for large language model (LLM) fine-tuning, yet their benefits are typically evaluated only against standard backpropagation (BP), omitting memory-efficient variants such as activation checkpointing.

arXiv:2607. 10365v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Vision Transformers (ViTs) are difficult to interpret because current methods of relevance propagation and attention flow do not fully consider some key architectural features, such as the uneven importance of attention heads and residual connections.

arXiv:2607. 11436v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Vision-language models increasingly succeed on multimodal reasoning benchmarks, yet their visual evidence often becomes unstable once it enters the language stack, weakening evidence-grounded reasoning.

arXiv:2607. 09711v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Existing agent benchmarks primarily test task completion, tool use, or skill utility, but do not isolate whether a runtime can convert evidence from its own runs into reusable skills that improve fresh executions after authoring overhead.

arXiv:2607. 10113v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language model agents increasingly store reusable procedures outside the model.

arXiv:2607. 11586v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) large language models (LLM) activate only a small number of experts during inference, but token routing introduces persistent expert hotness skew: a small set of hot experts continuously receives most tokens, while the remaining experts are lightly loaded.

arXiv:2607. 10139v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Selecting the correct answer from a pool of candidate reasoning chains is the engine of test-time scaling, yet the standard selectors each carry a cost: self-consistency inherits the errors of the single model it resamples, and trained reward models need labeled data and transfer poorly off-distribution.
By Ning Liu
arXiv:2601. 22146v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Due to limited supervised training data, large language models (LLMs) are typically pre-trained via a self-supervised "predict the next word" objective on a vast amount of unstructured text data.
