Akashic: A Low-Overhead LLM Inference Service with MemAttention

Recent LLM-based agent systems continuously accumulate context across multi-turn interactions, tool invocations, and cross-session workflows. Replaying the full history for every request quickly becomes impractical: long contexts increase prefill cost, may exceed context limits, and often bury task-relevant evidence in irrelevant content, degrading both serving efficiency and output quality.

The yes-no bias of large language models reflects answer order and wording, not shifts in moral judgment

Large language models (LLMs) increasingly issue judgments read as binary verdicts, and a growing literature reports such judgments shifting under logically irrelevant changes of wording - among them an amplified yes-no bias on moral dilemmas, absent in humans. A single framing cannot say what such a shift is: in a yes/no question the word "no" is at once logical verdict, lexical token, and last-printed option.

SPEARBench: A Benchmark for Naturalness Evaluation in Streaming Speech-to-Speech Language Models

Streaming speech-to-speech language models aim to answer spoken queries directly with synthetic speech. However, standard speech and text benchmarks do not capture whether these systems behave naturally in conversations, where timing, turn-taking, prosody, interpersonal stance, language and dialect consistency, and relationship-aware appropriateness jointly shape perceived quality.

How Much is Left? LLMs Linearly Encode Their Remaining Output Length

Large language models generate one token at a time, yet their responses show remarkably consistent length structure: step-by-step solutions converge in predictable token counts, retrievals stop after a few sentences, retractions extend responses by measurable amounts. We ask whether the model carries an internal estimate of how much response remains.

SteelBench: Evaluating Vision-Language Models in Real-World Industrial Environments

Existing video benchmarks evaluate action recognition on consumer videos, egocentric recordings, or simulated industrial environments. They do not test vision-language models under the visual and procedural conditions of real industrial CCTV, where workers appear as distant figures amid dust, steam, low light, glare, occlusion, and overlapping activities.

TacReasoner: A Dynamic Tactile-Language Framework for Interactive Reasoning in Real-World Scenarios

Among the five primary human senses, tactile is arguably the most fundamental to survival, as it enables the perception of physical contact and interaction in real-world environments. In this paper, we explore two key challenges of integrating tactile sensing into intelligent systems for multimodal reasoning: (i) insufficient modeling of dynamic tactile signals, which restricts reasoning over temporally evolving properties, and (ii) hallucination in tactile foundation models caused by the absence of explicit reasoning mechanisms, leading to unstable real-world inference.

Knowledge Knows, Verbalization Tells: Disentangling Latent Directions for Mathematical Solvability in LLMs

Although LLMs have made significant progress in mathematical reasoning, determining whether a mathematical problem is solvable remains a fundamental yet challenging capability. While recent studies have probed internal representations of model solvability beliefs, verbalization has primarily been studied behaviorally rather than as an internal representation, limiting its analysis and manipulation.
