Focused Forcing: Content-Aware Per-Frame KV Selection for Efficient Autoregressive Video Diffusion

Recent advances in autoregressive video diffusion have enabled sequential and streaming video generation. However, long-horizon generation requires increasingly large KV caches, making efficient compression without sacrificing quality challenging. Existing methods mostly select historical frames based on attention scor...

Always Learning, Always Mixing: Efficient and Simple Data Mixing All The Time

OP-Mix (On-Policy Mix), a data mixing algorithm that operates across pretraining, midtraining, and instruction tuning, is introduced, suggesting a different view of language model training: not a sequence of distinct phases, but a single continuous process of learning from data.

MahaVar: OOD Detection via Class-wise Mahalanobis Distance Variance under Neural Collapse

Out-of-distribution (OOD) detection is a critical component for ensuring the reliability of deep neural networks in safety-critical applications. In this work, we present a key empirical observation: for in-distribution (ID) samples, class-wise Mahalanobis distances exhibit a pronounced sharp minimum structure, where t...

The Illusion of Power Capping in LLM Decode: A Phase-Aware Energy Characterisation Across Attention Architectures

It is found that, once prefill is measured without prefix caching, the recurrent architectures pay no prefill penalty: their linear-time mixing undercuts quadratic attention on long prompts, so their efficient decode adds to the prefill saving and lowers total request energy from the first output token at large batch.

Conditional Memory Enhanced Item Representation for Generative Recommendation

Generative recommendation (GR) has emerged as a promising paradigm that predicts target items by autoregressively generating their semantic identifiers (SID). Most GR methods follow a quantization-representation-generation pipeline. While most research focuses on quantization and generation, the representation that bri...

ASTOR: Multi-Task Code Reinforcement Learning via Utility-Driven Coordination

Reinforcement learning (RL) with verifiable rewards has proven effective at post-training LLMs for coding, yet deploying separate task-specific specialists incurs costs that scale with the number of tasks, motivating a unified multi-task RL (MTRL) approach. However, existing MTRL methods treat all coding tasks uniforml...

Validity-Calibrated Reasoning Distillation

Reasoning distillation aims to transfer multi-step reasoning capabilities from large language models to smaller, efficient ones. While recent methods have shown promising gains, they typically rely on static teacher-student hierarchies and frame distillation as trajectory imitation. This is misaligned with the structur...

Interpretable Difficulty-Aware Knowledge Tracing in Tutor-Student Dialogues

Recent advances in large language models (LLMs) have led to the development of AI-powered tutoring systems that provide interactive support via dialogue. To enable these tutoring systems to provide personalized support, it is essential to assess student performance at each turn, motivating knowledge tracing (KT) in dia...

Adaptive Query Routing: A Tier-Based Framework for Hybrid Retrieval Across Financial, Legal, and Medical Documents

Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) has become the standard paradigm for grounding Large Language Model outputs in external knowledge. Lumer et al. presented the first systematic evaluation comparing vector-based agentic RAG against hierarchical node-based reasoning systems for financial document QA across 1,200 SEC f...
