Natural-language service intents in integrated terrestrial and non-terrestrial (TN/NTN) 6G networks can be incomplete, ambiguous, or inconsistent, making unconstrained LLM generation challenging for reliable network-facing orchestration. This paper proposes a knowledge-guided LLM framework that combines grammar-constra...
Transformer-based large language models (LLMs) impose substantial computation and memory costs as context sizes increase, motivating methods that compress a context into a shorter representation before inference. Existing soft-prompt compression methods typically use the same Transformer backbone as used in the target...

Energy-based models have shown promising properties for domain-specific tasks but remain challenging in modeling general-purpose scenarios. To bridge this gap, we design energy-steered models (ESMs) for foundational language modeling. ESMs integrate energy steering and token generation within a single architecture to l...
Optical Character Recognition (OCR) is essential for digitizing historical archives, yet standard evaluation metrics such as Character Error Rate (CER) do not necessarily reflect whether meaningful information, such as names, dates, and identifiers, is preserved. In this work, we investigate entitylevel analysis of OCR...

Academic revision presents a governance problem when legitimate writing objectives conflict. Writing-process and social-science research show that revision is recursive and that wording carries epistemic and disciplinary commitments. Those literatures identify important constraints but do not settle which objective sho...
Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR) models such as OpenAIs Whisper have substantially improved speech recognition quality but remain expensive to fine-tune, especially when large amounts of transcribed audio are available. This makes it challenging for many practitioners to adapt these models to new languages or domains...
Large Language Models (LLMs) are becoming increasingly autonomous assistants, capable of accomplishing series of complex tasks by interacting with open world domains such as software databases and the internet. This presents great opportunity but also great risk: open domains routinely present opportunities for autonom...

Recent advancements in generative AI facilitate large-scale synthetic data generation for model evaluation. However, without targeted approaches, these datasets often lack the sociotechnical nuance required for sensitive domains. We introduce NodeSyn, a methodology that pairs a fine-tuned taxonomy generator (TaG) with...

Personal email agents decide, for every message, what it is, whether it is urgent, whether to draft a reply, create a task, or ignore it. Their error rate is rarely measured: the stored labels were written by the system itself. We present Foyer, a self-hosted personal inbox agent in daily use, and a measurement protoco...
Modern language models rely on subwording tokenization to define the discrete units of input processing, typically using methods like Byte Pair Encoding (BPE) that treat whitespace as a fixed semantic boundary. This design is inherently limited, as many meaningful concepts---including multiword expressions and the stru...

Spoken native language (L1) identification for second language learners has traditionally relied on acoustic attributes of speech. Comparatively little attention has been paid to analysing speech transcripts for L1 traces. In this paper, we present a study of L1 identification using both speech and corresponding transc...

Looped language models run each token through the same layers several times, and each run is one iteration. To save compute, an extra layer, the halting head, gives after each iteration the probability that the token stops there, so that easy tokens can stop early. Pretraining models from scratch, up to 1.3B parameters...
Flint-interactive gives AI agents a language for creating interactive visualizations. Click a chart, filter data, highlight related content, and explore beyond the view the author originally chose.

Zero-knowledge proofs can verify computing results without rerunning workloads or exposing sensitive data. Magnetar helps bring them into the mainstream with support for standard programming languages, major speed gains, and quantum-resistant security. The post Proof-based general-purpose computing with Magnetar appeared first on Microsoft Research.
