TurboPairFormer: Fast and Stable Protein Folding Model Training with an Optimized Triangle Attention Kernel

Triangular attention is a core computation in AlphaFold3-style biomolecular models, with cubic cost in token count. Its shared pair bias adds a gradient reduction across attention slices to the usual reductions over queries and keys. The open-source backends we examine handle these reductions through repeated probabili …

LIFT: Layout-In-Future Video Generation under Large Viewpoint Change via On-Policy Self-Distillation

We introduce LIFT, a unified image-to-video generation framework that complements camera control with Layout-In-FuTure control, enabling users to specify what should appear in a future view and where it should appear. This addresses a practical need in controllable video generation: given an initial image, users often …

Learning to Plan from Random Exploration

Random exploration reveals how an environment can be traversed before a goal is specified. Can this experience support long-range planning without policy-improvement training? Our random-walk analysis explains what temporal relations contain: short horizons reveal geodesic geometry in the diffusion limit, while longer …
