Multimodal large language models (MLLMs) incur substantial inference costs when processing long visual-textual sequences. While existing operation compression methods exploit modality-level redundancy, they largely treat computation within attention heads and shared feed-forward network (FFN) channels as unified units,...

Generalization in large language models (LLMs) is the ability to produce consistent and semantically stable outputs when the same input is expressed in different ways. Existing work typically evaluates generalization through aggregate accuracy on a single prompt format, task, or set of variations, which conflates robus...

This work proposes an end-to-end framework for ontology network construction that automates the discovery and generation of both intra-domain and inter-domain relationships, and highlights the necessity of LLM-based reasoning over concept roles and domain semantics for accurate relationship construction.
Scientific progress emerges from a longitudinal ecosystem in which researchers, institutions, funding agencies, collaboration networks, and the scientific literature co-evolve. As AI becomes increasingly involved throughout the scientific research cycle, understanding these interconnected and evolving processes becomes...

This work presents Diffusion Layer Integrated Gradients (DLIG), a token attribution method for diffusion language models (DLMs) that extends Integrated Gradients (IG~\cite{sundararajan2017axiomatic}) to arbitrary layers and denoising steps. DLIG attributes a DLM's progressive commitment to a self-generated or fixed com...
A long-term conversational assistant must recall the right memory at the right moment, yet the memory that matters most is often not similar to what the user says now. Current systems recover such associations by letting an LLM reason at write or read time, at a cost of hundreds to over a thousand LLM calls per memory...
Cross-domain experiments show that the learned scorer transfers across benchmarks, indicating that the method captures reusable joingraph traversal behavior.

In-context learning (ICL) enables language models to perform new tasks from demonstrations without weight updates. However, every ICL inference requires processing the full set of examples, resulting in inefficient deployments, and how ICL works mechanistically is not fully understood. Prior work compresses ICL into fi...

Tackling complex real-world tasks can exceed the capabilities of a single large language model (LLM), motivating the use of multi-agent workflows that coordinate specialized agents to work together on these tasks. Recent methods train LLMs to construct better workflows from execution outcomes, but they optimize only th...

Coding agents can return plausible patches that omit required behavior. These failures are hard to review because long traces and confident summaries often hide what was missed. We ask when a nominally weaker reviewer can reliably decide whether a patch solves its issue. We study 411 execution-labeled traces from three...

Directional verification mitigates the transfer of errors from teacher-generated answers to students by providing more accurate training targets, and introduces directional label distillation, in which frozen teachers score candidate answers in that known direction and the best-scoring candidate becomes the student's t...
