Comparing empirical cross-lingual transfer with typology-based similarity, it is found that transfer BLEU identifies closely interacting language pairs better than URIEL similarity, though neither predicts which varieties benefit from joint training.

The Large Language Model from Power Law Decoder Representations (PLDR-LLM) and its attention, Power Law Graph Attention (PLGA), replace the fixed bilinear form of scaled dot-product attention (SDPA) with a learned, input-generated bilinear operator $G_{LM}$, built from a positive tensor $A_{LM}$ by elementwise power la...
NAMOH, an architecture-native sparse attention mechanism that activates only its assigned tokens and performs causal attention within this subsequence, is introduced, and it is hoped this work offers a new path for scaling attention, with parameter scaling directly enabling context scaling.
The rapid development of AI-driven tools, particularly large language models (LLMs), is reshaping professional writing. Still, key aspects of their adoption such as language support, ethics, and long-term impact on writers' voice and creativity remain underexplored. In this work, we carried out a questionnaire (N = 301...
JuryFlow is presented, a disagreement-guided, human-in-the-loop multi-agent evaluation framework that treats inter-judge disagreement not as noise to be averaged away, but as a precise, claim-level signal indicating where an evaluation is uncertain.
Existing full-duplex speech benchmarks cover only subsets of real-time interaction behaviors, often under limited contextual conditions. We introduce DuplexAct-Bench, a bilingual benchmark that systematically covers six complementary behaviors, from interruption and yielding to proactive initiation, active silence, and...

Large Language Models (LLMs) and more broadly Artificial Intelligence (AI) systems are often described and understood in human-like terms, a phenomenon known as anthropomorphism. This paper provides a synthesis of recent literature on anthropomorphism in AI, covering theoretical frameworks, the role of language in fram...

Post-hoc context erasing over the KV cache is challenging because a local edit has a global consequence: once a span has been processed, its influence propagates into the cached states of all subsequent tokens. This issue arises naturally in long-context LLM applications, where stale, incorrect, or harmful context may...

Weak-to-strong (W2S) generalization is a promising framework for scalable oversight, yet existing evaluations often test students under matched train-test distributions. Therefore, we study W2S preference learning under zero-shot distribution shift and find that strong students trained on weak preference labels can app...

It is increasingly important to evaluate the characteristics of systems based on large language models (LLMs). Evaluations in this context often rely on a curated benchmark set of input prompts provided to the LLM, where the output for each prompt may be assigned a binary or ordinal score and the aggregation of scores...

Large language models (LLMs) routinely fail to output the correct option in multiple-choice question answering (MCQA) while encoding the answer internally. We expose this latent knowledge via the Query--Key (QK) score, defined for an attention head as the inner product between the last-token query and the key at the en...

Parallel thinking has enjoyed great success for boosting LLM performance on reasoning tasks without the need for any re-training. However, existing methods follow a think-first-then-decide paradigm, i.e., they first sample multiple reasoning paths, which inevitably leads to overgeneration, then prune or stop unnecessar...
