Glitch tokens are anomalous vocabulary entries that can cause large language models (LLMs) to produce outputs inconsistent with their inputs. Existing repair methods require access to model internals, making them impractical for frozen checkpoints. We investigate whether glitch tokens can be repaired outside the model …

Large language models (LLMs) increasingly serve as autonomous agents that invoke external tools. However, this capability introduces tool hallucination, selecting incorrect tools or generating invalid calls. Existing mitigation methods report substantial improvements, yet we identify a previously overlooked failure mod …

Multimodal Large Language Models face significant efficiency challenges that stem from two distinct yet coupled sources: data redundancy and computational redundancy. While most methods focus on data redundancy by pruning visual tokens from the output of the visual encoder or computing redundancy in LLM decoders using …

Embodied task planners may produce multi-step plans whose subtask dependencies and interactions with the environment create physical risks during execution. Yet existing safeguards overlook such compositional risks, as general-purpose guardrails focus on semantic harm and embodied safety detectors assess subtasks in is …
