Beyond Tokens: Semantic-Aware Speculative Decoding for Efficient Inference by Probing Internal States

SemanticSpec introduces a semantic probability estimation mechanism that probes the model's internal hidden states to assess the likelihood of generating sequences with specific meanings, and proposes SemanticSpec, a semantic-aware speculative decoding framework that verifies entire semantic sequences instead of tokens...

MindForge: Teaching Small Language Models Whole-Life-Cycle Software Engineering via Source-Free Program Synthesis

MindForge is introduced, an automated pipeline that converts open-source command-line programs into source-free environments that expose only a compiled reference executable and its documentation that consistently improves over the base model across all seven unseen software engineering benchmarks, spanning long-horizo...

LLM Post-Training as Brownfield Maintenance: An Industrial Perspective on Dataware Engineering

From an industrial code-generation improvement effort, a maintainer's perspective on why this work is hard in practice is offered, distilling three recurring challenges, zero-sum mixture design, yield as the binding metric, and end-to-end integration under uncertainty, and arguing that progress depends less on one-off...

SWE-NFI: Studying and Benchmarking Coding Agents for Non-Functional Improvements

This paper operationalizes developer-oriented NFIs into 92 executable rules and develops a comprehensive evaluation suite that combines functional correctness testing with rule-based NFI evaluation, and evaluates state-of-the-art commercial and open-source coding agents.

SpecFirst: Behavioral Specification Elicitation as a First-Class Step in Agent-Based Program Synthesis from Scratch

This work presents SpecFirst, a two-stage framework that forces the specification elicitation before code synthesis, and demonstrates that an explicit requirements-engineering phase is an effective paradigm for from-scratch program construction.
