VGenST-Bench is a new video benchmark for MLLM spatio-temporal reasoning built via generative synthesis, a multi-agent pipeline with human oversight, a 3x2x2 taxonomy, and hierarchical tasks separating perception from reasoning.
Introduces the Grounded Personality Reasoning task and MM-OCEAN dataset to show that MLLMs frequently produce correct Big Five personality ratings without grounding them in observable video evidence.
CAPS is a four-stage inference-only cascade that adapts how much of each solution the verifier sees and how comparisons are distributed, halving per-candidate verifier tokens while outperforming uniform pairwise verification on most benchmarks.
RAPO uses an information-theoretic lower bound on visual gain to select high-entropy reflection anchors and optimizes a chain-masked KL surrogate, delivering gains over baselines on reasoning benchmarks across LVLM backbones.
On-policy distillation has an extrapolation cliff at closed-form lambda*(p,b,c) set by teacher modal probability, warm-start mass, and clip strength, past which training shifts from format-preserving to format-collapsing.
FATE reduces normalized makespan and P95 latency in real LLM workflow DAGs to 0.675 and 0.677 by jointly preserving multiple future execution states, outperforming RoundRobin by 32.5% and the strongest baseline by 8.9%.
DAPRO adaptively spends a fixed interaction budget across multi-turn LLM conversations and builds valid lower bounds on time-to-jailbreak, with coverage error scaling as the square root of the mean censoring weight.
Introduces OmniBehavior benchmark from real-world data and shows LLMs exhibit hyper-activity, persona homogenization, and utopian bias in behavior simulation.
Autopoiesis uses LLM-driven program synthesis to evolve serving policies online during deployment, delivering up to 53% and average 34% gains over prior LLM serving systems under runtime dynamics.
This work delivers the first measurements of performance-energy trade-offs across four multi-request LLM workflow patterns on A100 GPUs using vLLM and Parrot.
PulseCol introduces periodically refreshed column-sparse attention to achieve up to 1.95x speedup over FlashAttention in diffusion LLMs with maintained model quality.
GEM is a GPU-variability-aware expert-to-GPU mapping framework for MoE inference that classifies experts as consistent or temporal and places them to equalize finish times across heterogeneous GPUs.
GPRL carries a k-dimensional skew-symmetric preference structure into policy updates with per-dimension advantages and a drift monitor, yielding 56.51% length-controlled win rate on AlpacaEval 2.0 from Llama-3-8B-Instruct while outperforming SimPO and SPPO on other benchmarks.
Attention-state memory externalizes long prefixes into a lightweight lookup table of precomputed attention states, yielding higher accuracy than standard in-context learning at fixed memory budgets and lower latency than full attention.
Mu-GRPO enables substantially more off-policy GRPO training for LLMs via relaxed clipping and negative-advantage veto in large staged batches, matching standard GRPO performance at ~2x training speed.
SceneGraphVLM generates dynamic scene graphs from video using compact VLMs, TOON serialization, and hallucination-aware RL to improve precision and achieve one-second latency.
AB-Sparse adaptively allocates per-head block sizes for sparse attention, adds lossless centroid quantization and custom variable-block GPU kernels, and reports up to 5.43% accuracy gain over fixed-block baselines with no throughput loss.
Missing old logits in async agentic RL entangle discrepancy and staleness terms in PPO off-policy correction; exact acquisition methods and revised PPO-EWMA restore decoupled updates with reported gains in speed and performance.
ChunkFlow achieves up to 1.28x step-time speedup and up to 49% lower peak GPU memory for DiT inference by using a first-order model to guide communication-aware chunked prefetching.
DMI-Lib delivers 0.4-6.8% overhead for offline batch LLM inference and ~6% for moderate online serving while exposing rich internal signals across backends, cutting latency overhead 2-15x versus prior observability baselines.
Drafter models in speculative decoding suffer progressive attention drift caused by monotonically growing hidden-state magnitudes along the residual path; post-norm plus per-state RMSNorm reduces this drift and improves acceptance length up to 2x on perturbed templates and 1.18x on long-context data
CodePivot uses Python as a pivot language plus an Aggressive-Partial-Functional RL reward to train a 7B model that outperforms much larger LLMs on multilingual code transpilation without parallel corpora.
FP16 KV caching in transformers causes deterministic token divergence versus cache-free inference due to non-associative floating-point accumulation orderings.
