arXiv:2608. 10039v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Agentic workflows have become an important abstraction for building reliable LLM-based automation systems by organizing large language models (LLMs), tools, and control logic into explicit execution structures.

arXiv:2608. 10046v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Soft skills shape collaboration among ML engineers, data scientists, and software engineers building ML-enabled systems, yet what we know about them comes almost entirely from the demand side.

arXiv:2608. 10149v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Due to the diversity of real-world time series, no single forecasting model consistently dominates across all samples.

arXiv:2608. 10120v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Modern sequence models, from Transformers to State Space Models, have enabled powerful generative modeling across diverse domains, yet they are typically trained to predict what happens while treating when it happens as a secondary concern.

arXiv:2608. 10288v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The Large Language Model from Power Law Decoder Representations (PLDR-LLM) and its attention, Power Law Graph Attention (PLGA), replace the fixed bilinear form of scaled dot-product attention (SDPA) with a learned, input-generated bilinear operator $G_{LM}$, built from a positive tensor $A_{LM}$ by elementwise power laws.

arXiv:2608. 10374v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Training neural networks to jointly predict mean and uncertainty estimates from noisy observations can be unstable, prompting a series of independent stabilization efforts.
By Sumedh Vemuganti, Nickvash Kani
arXiv:2608. 10441v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Many pipelines can pay a per-example cost to acquire an auxiliary, model-derived observation -- an LLM's structured reasoning, a slow oracle, an expensive measurement -- and then must decide when the acquired signal is worth using.

arXiv:2608. 10850v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We study continual pre-training (CPT) as a mechanism for adapting general-purpose large language models to specialized domains: mathematics, instruction, code, and natural text.

arXiv:2608. 10418v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Recent work has shown that, for smooth convex optimization, plain gradient descent can be accelerated from its textbook convergence rate of $O(T^{-1})$ (where $T$ denotes the number of iterations) to $O\big(T^{-\log_2(1+\sqrt{2})}\big)$ using carefully designed stepsize schedules alone, without resorting to momentum or other algorithmic modifications.

arXiv:2608. 10532v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Static load balancers cannot mitigate a backend that is degraded rather than down: round-robin and least-connections keep routing traffic to a server returning HTTP 500s until an operator intervenes.
