Dynamic sparse attention limits the KV pages selected by each query, but a small support does not necessarily yield efficient GPU work. Query unions share page loads and populate Tensor Core tiles; their cost depends on which queries are grouped together. We present PageWeaver, an execution design that uses selected-pa …
Improving a long-horizon LLM agent means evolving the harness around a frozen model or training its weights. We let a self-evolving harness make the system stronger first, then cross seed and evolved harnesses with base and trained weights to learn which gains the trained model keeps and which still need the runtime. W …
Medical vision-language models (VLMs) have shown increasing potential for clinical image interpretation. However, these models still struggle to interpret multi-phenotype lesions whose diagnosis requires the joint assessment of multiple pathological phenotypes. Existing vision-language alignment methods produce visual …
Medical vision-language models (VLMs) have shown increasing potential for radiological image interpretation. Medical VLMs encode radiological images into visual representations that capture both anatomical and phenotypic information for diagnosis. Existing approaches improve pathological phenotype representations throu …
Large-scale egocentric human interaction data is becoming an important source of physical supervision for embodied learning, yet video alone leaves the contact and pressure that characterize physical interaction unrecorded. Recent visual-tactile datasets provide this missing supervision, but their synchronized tactile …
Effective traffic signal control (TSC) requires policies that respond to changing traffic demand and network conditions while meeting different control objectives. However, adapting existing strategies often involves repeated manual design and adjustment, making it difficult to systematically explore better control rul …
Large language model (LLM) agents are rapidly reshaping software engineering, accompanied by an explosion of new code benchmarks. Yet nearly all existing benchmarks still rely on the same decades-old criterion: a solution is correct if it passes a fixed set of unit tests. Such tests are often insufficient: they check o …
LLM-based multi-agent systems (MAS) have attracted growing attention for improving reasoning through interaction among multiple agents. In this work, we focus on parallel multi-agent reasoning systems, where several agents solve the same problem over multiple rounds and aggregate their outputs into a final answer. Desp …
Black-box optimization problems are ubiquitous across science and engineering, often dealing with expensive objective functions. This objective latency has two consequences during optimization: (i) the objective evaluation dominates execution time, and (ii) sample-efficient algorithms are crucial to accelerate developm …
Rubric-based reinforcement learning (RL) provides interpretable rewards for aligning large language models (LLMs) by evaluating responses against query-specific evaluation criteria. To construct rubrics at scale, a straightforward approach to LLM-based rubric generation is to prompt an LLM to generate a rubric directly …
Low-light UAV-based RGB-infrared oriented small-vehicle detection is important for nighttime traffic monitoring, emergency response, and urban inspection. Illumination variations, headlight glare, local shadows, and thermal-response degradation cause spatially varying modality reliability, while the small visual extent …
Multi-agent debate can improve reasoning, yet often fails to beat simple majority voting. We argue that successful debate requires two distinct mechanisms: proposal supply must surface a correct answer, and readout must identify that answer when voting misses it. We formalize the first requirement through recoverable h …
Long-output reasoning shifts the KV-cache bottleneck from the fixed prompt to the generated trace. Existing reasoning-cache eviction methods largely treat cached entries as routing objects, estimating whether an old key will still be read, will recur, or can be replaced. This routing-only view overlooks two effects: lo …
Recent world action models (WAMs) reuse pretrained video VAEs whose encoder latents directly condition downstream action policies. Quantization must therefore preserve not only reconstruction fidelity but also the policy-facing latent contract expected by the frozen policy. Direct NVFP4 leaves W4A4 quantization error u …
Reliable evaluation of image forgery localization (IFL) requires assessing models under diverse distribution changes, yet existing benchmarks often cover limited manipulation conditions or entangle multiple factors in cross-dataset evaluation. Consequently, aggregate performance provides an incomplete view of localizat …
Small open-weight models (2-9B) run on ordinary laptops, but under cloud-scale agent harnesses they rarely complete real tasks: tool prefill overflows the context, self-correction diverges, tool demonstrations loop, and tasks are silently abandoned. We present evidence, from a controlled single-machine comparison and o …
Vision-language-action (VLA) policies emphasize semantic understanding, whereas world-action models (WAMs) learn predictive representations of environment dynamics. Systems that expose a policy to both sources often still concentrate action computation on a single expert. We present EWAM, an action-centric unified embo …
As diffusion large language models (dLLMs) become more capable, they are moving from research settings to real-world \textit{serving}, where request management (such as scheduling and resource allocation) relies on accurate estimation of per-request inference cost. However, common cost proxies fall short for dLLMs: out …
LLM agents often admit multiple high-quality solutions to the same task, differing in reasoning structure, tool-use pattern, or interaction trajectory. Yet existing notions of diversity in LLM post-training are mostly implicit, arising from general stochasticity and regularization mechanisms rather than explicitly targ …
Sparse autoencoders (SAEs) reveal visual structure in diffusion transformers (DiTs), but interpreting a feature does not establish whether it can be used to control generation. We introduce D-Scope (Diffusion Scope), a framework that connects feature interpretation to generation control through shared visual evidence. …
