DuplexTune: Coupled-State Replay for Memory-Efficient Mixture-of-Experts Adaptation

Sparse expert execution does not remove the stored states needed to adapt a mixture-of-experts language model. We present DuplexTune, a framework for replaying coupled hidden states through pretrained attention and expert modules. Trainable width bridges connect two residual streams to the backbone. Bridge warm-up prec...

Layerwise Repacking: Variable-Length Hybrid-Attention Training without an Extra Redistribution Pass

Variable-length training creates conflicting parallelism requirements across the layers of a hybrid-attention model. The longest samples require wide sequence-parallel (SP) groups of 16 or 32 ranks for full attention, whose cost grows quadratically with sequence length. Sparse-attention layers, dominated by near-linear...

PROBE: Frontier Coding Agents Find Different Bugs Than Maintainers Fix

Proactive bug discovery is an important software-engineering problem. Even though coding agents are already widely deployed in this domain, their capabilities remain understudied. In particular, the challenging task of finding all bugs that human maintainers would repair across an entire repository has not been studied...

Let the Gate Decide: Per-Lookup Precision for Quantized Conditional Memory in LLMs

Conditional memory layers, such as DeepSeek's Engram, attach large hashed n-gram tables to a language model, and removing them from DeepSeek-V4.1-Flash costs 36.8 PopQA points. Low-bit quantization loses long-tail facts first, and the standard remedy, giving more bits to frequently accessed rows, backfires: refining lo...

UnityBench-Mini3D: Evaluating LLM Agents for 3D Game Development in Unity

Game development stresses coding agents in ways general software engineering does not: correctness depends on how engine APIs, serialized scene state, and runtime behavior interact, not on source code alone. Existing benchmarks mainly target platforms such as Godot and heavily rely on LLM judges or coarse task-level ou...

Multiple Leak Localization in Water Distribution Networks through Graph Neural Networks

Leak localization in water distribution networks is challenging when multiple leaks occur simultaneously, particularly under sparse monitoring. Existing data-driven methods often assume a single or predefined number of leaks or require extensive enumeration of leak combinations. This study proposes a graph neural netwo...

ResCom: Activation Residual Compensation for Large Language Model Quantization

ResCom, a low-rank correction that uses the activation rounding residual to compensate for the resulting layer-output error, is proposed, a low-rank correction that uses the activation rounding residual to compensate for the resulting layer-output error.

Curriculum-Driven Deep Reinforcement Learning for Autonomous Far-Range Rocket Landing

Autonomous vertical landing of reusable launch vehicles is a critical yet formidable challenge in aerospace engineering, primarily due to highly nonlinear dynamics, stringent precision require- ments, and inherent environmental uncertainties. While reinforcement learning (RL) has emerged as a promising alternative to t...

Beyond Greenwashing: Algorithmic Resilience and the Non-Linear Governance Premium in Sovereign Capital Flows

Despite the proliferation of sovereign Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) metrics, traditional linear macro-financial models systematically misprice Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) tail risks during systemic shocks. This paper demonstrates that sovereign risk transmission is fundamentally non-linear. Using a f...

Agent-Conditioned Routing: Diverse Reasoning Paths Within One Frozen Model

Generating several solutions can expose alternative methods, but additional trajectories often paraphrase one dominant approach. We investigate whether the conditional capacity of a frozen sparse mixture-of-experts (MoE) model can provide such diversity from one problem prompt, without user-assigned roles, prescribed m...

Prospector: learning a compact graph traversal policy for scientific reasoning

Scientific reasoning in specialized engineering fields depends on knowledge scattered across the literature, often proprietary and absent from frontier LLM training data. In such domains, frontier models tend to give generic answers. Knowledge graphs (KGs) can ground LLM reasoning. Because a graph is too large to provi...
