Training data can have unexpected side effects on language model behavior outside the training domain: insecure code data can induce broad misalignment, and outdated bird names can induce a 19th-century persona. Understanding such generalization is hard because only dozens of isolated examples exist, each constructed b...
Decision models read a document and return a probability for each of a fixed set of options instead of generating text. Several appeared in 2026, but none has published results outside English. We describe Zuse, three decision models (4B, 9B and 27B) that train a low-rank adapter and a pointer head on frozen open-weigh...
Multimodal models have often scored below text-only baselines in the BabyLM Challenge (Klerings et al., 2024; Takmaz et al., 2025). We test whether additional recurrent computation helps close this gap. Recurrence increases computation by reusing layers without adding parameters or training data. Using a single impleme...
While Large Language Models (LLMs) excel in high-resource languages, their performance often degrades in low-resource languages due to tokenization inefficiencies, generative instability, and linguistic interference. This paper presents AssameseLM-E2B and its instruction-tuned variant, AssameseLM-E2B-it, a 2-billion-pa...

Comparisons in conversational emotion-shift forecasting are easily distorted when a learned model receives rich features but its transition baseline is given a noisy or unavailable current-emotion label, when hyperparameter budgets differ, or when target-turn information enters the representation. We present an informa...
Short-horizon model predictive control (MPC) is fast but myopic. ZipMPC compensates by learning a context-dependent correction of the short-horizon cost that imitates a long-horizon expert. We observe that the optimal correction is often multimodal: when a slower opponent can be passed on either side, good corrections...
Differentiable weather models allow atmospheric initial conditions to be directly optimized to shadow a known trajectory, which we take from a reanalysis dataset. Here, we extend this optimization to include the forecast model, GraphCast, using low-rank adaptation (LoRA). We compare model optimization with initial-cond...
We estimate the integral curve of an unknown vector field from noisy tangent vector field on a known compact Riemannian manifold. We consider two sampling settings: independent observations at random locations that have already been collected, and a fixed response budget that allows subsequent locations to be chosen us...
We develop and analyze multilevel gradient-regularized Newton methods for unconstrained convex optimization with Lipschitz-continuous Hessians. By computing Newton corrections in lower-dimensional subspaces, the proposed methods aim to reduce computational costs while preserving the global $\mathcal{O}\left(k^{-2}\righ...
Pruning network connections is key to brain function but, despite its importance, there exist few biologically-plausible pruning rules with demonstrated good performance. We evaluate noise-prune, a recently introduced unsupervised local pruning rule for recurrent networks that uses noisy fluctuations to determine the i...
Adaptive rounding methods such as GPTQ quantize the weights of a large language model (LLM) one at a time, propagating each rounding error to the weights not yet rounded. YAQA lowers the KL divergence from the original model with two-sided adaptive rounding under a Kronecker-factored Hessian, but its error feedback tak...
Expert background knowledge is often available in practical applications of causal discovery. Such constraints on the true causal graph can help causal discovery in terms of identifiability of causal effects and accuracy of the learned structure, but also in reducing the space of candidate causal graphs. As causal disc...

Research Manager Mike Walker reflects on a career spanning hacker culture, cybersecurity, and AI, sharing lessons about trust, teamwork, leadership, and why solving difficult problems requires curiosity, judgment, agility—and an understanding of the rules. The post Learn the rules: The hacker mindset appeared first on Microsoft Research.
