Structured per-agent randomness via ranked masking in attention allows symmetric agents to break ties and coordinate, achieving perfect success on symmetric tasks where deterministic policies fail and enabling zero-shot transfer across team sizes.
Proxy metrics from next-token distributions over expert solutions outperform loss and compute baselines for ranking LLMs, selecting pretraining data, and extrapolating performance across compute scales.
ScaleSearch optimizes block floating point scales via fine-grained search to cut quantization error by 27% for NVFP4, improving PTQ by up to 15 points on MATH500 for Qwen3-8B and attention PPL by 0.77 on Llama 3.1 70B.
LLMs show a grounding gap with humans on abstract concepts, with property-generation correlations at most r=0.37 versus human-to-human r>0.9, though larger models align better on explicit rating tasks and internal SAE features capture some grounding dimensions.
LaaB improves LLM hallucination detection by mapping self-judgment labels back into neural feature space and using mutual learning under logical consistency constraints between responses and meta-judgments.
InfoLaw models pretraining as information accumulation where quality sets information density and repetition causes scale-dependent diminishing returns, predicting loss with low error on unseen mixtures and larger scales up to 7B models and 425B tokens.
Pre-training loss predicts LLM math reasoning better than parameter count; rejection sampling fine-tuning with diverse paths raises LLaMA-7B accuracy on GSM8K from 35.9% with SFT to 49.3%.
