RenderRank: Learning to Rerank Text with Compressed Visual Tokens

Rendering document text as images allows vision-language models to encode documents as visual tokens, which can reduce input sequence length compared with text input. This reduction in input length is particularly useful for reranking, where each query involves scoring multiple candidate documents and token savings app...

ThinkFuse: Trajectory-Aware Test-Time Fusion for Small Reasoning Models

Small reasoning models (SRMs) have shown strong performance on complex reasoning tasks by generating extended chain-of-thought trajectories, but they often fail to recover once their reasoning enters an erroneous path. Existing test-time fusion methods rely on local fusion signals to determine when to trigger fusion, w...

CAST: Cost-Aware Speculative Trees from One-Pass Block Drafters

Speculative decoding accelerates large language model inference by drafting future tokens cheaply and verifying them with the target model in parallel. Block drafters score a whole block of future tokens in one forward pass, yet standard decoding verifies only the top-scoring chain and discards the other candidates. Be...

Refusal Localizes, the Damage Relocates: Safety Layers Under Few-Sample Fine-Tuning

Fine-tuning adapts aligned large language models (LLMs) to downstream tasks, but a few dozen harmful examples can remove their refusal of harmful requests. Prior work localizes safety-related behavior to specific layers, directions, and tokens, suggesting targets for protection. We test whether successful localization...

Distilling Directional Verification

Knowledge distillation aims to transfer the factual knowledge of large language models to smaller models for efficient deployment. Yet a teacher may recall a relation in one direction while failing to generate the answer in the reverse direction. Distillation from its generated answers can therefore propagate this dire...

Recovering Off-Policy Supervision for Speculative Decoding

Block drafters for speculative decoding are commonly trained on corpora written by external models, where a single off-policy token invalidates supervision for all subsequent slots in a block. Existing approaches discard these divergent slots, resulting in severe supervision loss. To resolve this problem while preservi...

Risk-Controlled Selective LLM Answering by Pricing Label-Free Checks

PriceCheck is introduced, which builds a compact family of decision rules from label-free checks such as re-solving a problem, and shows that choosing how checks are combined and stopped matters alongside how well a verifier ranks answers.

Faster Block-Diffusion Serving with Distribution-Free Risk Guarantees

Redline is a finite-sample procedure that selects operating points, hand-picked or learned, from the correctness of their answers on calibration prompts, and keeps the reference-relative risk, the joint probability that the reference answers correctly and a candidate configuration does not, within a user-chosen budget...

Where Activation Sparsity and KV-Cache Sparsity Cross in LLM Decoding

A byte crossover is derived, the context length at which the two savings are equal, together with ideal speedup bounds for each branch and for their composition, from model dimensions and keep ratios alone and is derived at https://github.com/js-lee-AI/ByteCross.

DART: Draft-Agreement Routing for Training-Free Adaptive Thinking Budgets in Hybrid Reasoning Models

DART is introduced, a training-free routing framework that samples two cheap no-think drafts, accepts direct answering when the drafts agree, and predicts a thinking budget from draft entropy when they disagree, and preserves or improves always-thinking accuracy in most settings while reducing thinking-token use.
