RAG-E is presented, an end-to-end explainability framework that quantifies retriever-generator alignment through mathematically grounded attribution methods and introduces the Weighted Alignment between Retriever and Generator (WARG) metric to measure how closely the generator's document usage aligns with retriever ran...

Peer review is at the heart of modern science. As submission numbers rise and research communities grow, the decline in review quality is a popular narrative and a common concern. Yet, is it true? Review quality is difficult to measure, and the ongoing evolution of reviewing practices makes it hard to compare reviews a...

Spell correction is still a challenging problem for many languages, especially low-resource languages (LRLs). While pre-trained language models (PLMs) have been employed for spell correction, there has been no proper comparison across PLMs. We present the first empirical study on the effectiveness of the three types of...

Graphical user interface (GUI) agents built on vision-language models have emerged as a promising approach to automate human-computer workflows. However, they also face the inefficiency challenge as they process long sequences of high-resolution screenshots and solving long-horizon tasks, making inference slow, costly...

The high memory demands of generative language models have drawn attention to quantization, which reduces memory usage by mapping model weights to lower-precision integers. However, recent empirical studies show that, while efficient, quantization can increase the likelihood of generating biased outputs and degrade per...
Pre-training Large Language Models (LLMs) from scratch at larger scales yields remarkable performance but incurs substantially high training costs. Depth up-scaling provides an efficient alternative by inserting new layers into a pre-trained LLM, avoiding training from scratch. However, most existing methods copying or...

Quantum Natural Language Processing (QNLP) is taking huge leaps in solving the shortcomings of classical Natural Language Processing (NLP) techniques and moving towards a more "Explainable" NLP system. The current literature around QNLP focuses primarily on implementing QNLP techniques in sentences in the English langu...

Streaming Video Large Language Models (VLMs) enable continuous video understanding, yet existing benchmarks focus on low-dynamic scenarios. Under bounded context budgets, models must balance temporal history, spatial resolution, and temporal granularity; sparse sampling at 1--2 FPS misses fast events. We introduce Fast...

Skill-augmented agents improve sample efficiency by distilling successful trajectories into reusable strategies. Yet most existing approaches remain text-centric, linearizing spatial layouts and action-state correspondences into language that loses critical geometric structure. Recent efforts have begun incorporating v...

Existing spatial reasoning benchmarks mainly test spatial perception: reading off relations already visible in the input. Yet real-world spatial intelligence demands predictive spatial reasoning: constructing a scene from observations, anticipating how an intervention changes it, and reasoning about the unseen outcome....

Dense retrieval usually ranks text chunks by their semantic similarity to a question. This ignores structure that many data systems already store, including section membership, session boundaries, and native order. We propose NativeScope, a scope-then-rank method for queries with a known anchor and relation. It represe...
Recent full-duplex spoken dialog models enable simultaneous listening and speaking, but fine-grained models still advance their backbone autoregressively at every interaction frame. We introduce DiffuPlex, a rolling masked diffusion framework that reduces this sequential computation by predicting multiple future user a...
