Direct visual navigation policies generate trajectories efficiently but do not explicitly evaluate their future consequences. Generative navigation world models provide this foresight through visual rollouts, which are costly when evaluating multiple candidates. We present LiteNWM, a latent navigation world model that …
Post-discharge risk prediction from electronic health records (EHRs) is difficult because many dependencies that link discharge-time observations to downstream complications, such as comorbidity cascades and drug-disease interactions, are absent from the record. External medical knowledge graphs (KGs) can supply these …
While medical multimodal large language models (Med-MLLMs) advance medical visual question answering (VQA), existing clinical workflow-inspired multi-agent frameworks suffer from interaction patterns and excessive computational overhead caused by redundant communication topologies. In this paper, we propose MedPrune, a …
As Large Language Models (LLMs) become essential in privacy-sensitive sectors like hospitals and government agencies, the on-premise LLM servers offer a cost-effective and secure alternative to public cloud services. However, these resource-constrained servers struggle to guarantee heterogeneous Service Level Objective …
Efficient long-video understanding with vision-language models (VLMs) is often framed as selecting informative frames or visual tokens at a fixed native resolution. We show that per-frame resolution can instead be traded for denser temporal coverage, while front-end decoding latency depends on the size of the candidate …
Unstructured discharge notes in Electronic Health Records (EHRs) often carry signal complementary to structured medical codes, holding patient-specific evidence that standardized cohort-level codes alone cannot capture. However, this evidence in notes is frequently buried in lengthy, noisy text that is not intentionall …
Diffusion distillation is widely adopted to accelerate sampling, and the resulting few-step models are broadly believed to match or even surpass their multi-step teachers in generation. However, standard evaluations such as GenEval2 typically draw only one sample per prompt, so improved scores may fail to reveal losses …
World-Action Models (WAMs) improve robotic manipulation by conditioning action generation on predicted future observations, but future prediction adds further inference overhead to already expensive iterative action generation. Action chunking can amortize this cost over multiple actions, yet performance degrades over …
Long-horizon agents require context compression to manage growing interaction histories. Compression quality, however, is ultimately determined by downstream execution. Existing prompt-adaptation methods infer compression errors by comparing full-context and compressed trajectories. Such comparisons cannot isolate indi …
Generative image models can produce highly realistic images, raising concerns about potential misuse in creating deceptive content. Current deepfake approaches face several challenges, including limited generalizability, lack of interpretability, and poor actionability. To help address these, we present ASAP, an intera …
Recurrent-depth language models, such as looped Transformers, repeatedly apply shared network blocks to refine latent representations without generating explicit intermediate reasoning tokens. However, each step recomputes full attention over the entire context, repeating costly global routing. We study how attention r …
Retrieval-augmented generation often relies on multiple retrieved contexts that contain substantial redundancy, motivating context compression to preserve useful information under limited input budgets. Likelihood-based compressors can account for cross-context redundancy through sequential scoring, but this makes evid …
We introduce NemotronLabs VoiceChat, an open full-duplex speech-to-speech model with native tool-calling capabilities. NemotronLabs VoiceChat combines a streaming speech encoder and decoder-only language model with parallel specialized output streams for agent text and structured function calls, an auxiliary RNN-T bran …
Full-duplex speech-to-speech (S2S) models provide natural, low-latency conversational interaction and would benefit from the ability to use external tools and complete voice-agent tasks. We propose a frontend-backend architecture where a duplex speech-to-text frontend learns to emit a delegation token and forwards stre …
Full-duplex speech-to-speech (S2S) models enable natural conversational AI by allowing simultaneous listening and speaking. However, these models typically lack inherent user speech transcription, which is essential for applications such as conversation logging, accessibility features, and quality monitoring. In this w …
