Paging with Per-Replacement Maximum Delay

Classical paging serves every miss immediately. We study paging with per-replacement maximum delay, where loading a pending page costs one movement plus the age of its oldest outstanding request and clears that page's entire episode. Equivalently, the holding rate is the number of pending pages. For cache size $k$, thr...

Online Bin Packing with Per-Bin Maximum Delay

This work proves strong NP-hardness and rule out absolute approximation factors below three halves unless P equals NP, and obtains an exact stochastic benchmark for Poisson arrivals when every item has half the bin capacity.

Online Covering with Maximum Delay under Subadditive Service Costs

We study online covering in which each instantaneous service pays its purchase cost and one maximum waiting time, with no effect on future requests. For static realizable services, monotone subadditivity suffices for optimal competitive ratios; submodularity is unnecessary. A normalized monotone subadditive lower-bound...

Policy and World Modeling Co-Training for Language Agents

PaW is a Policy and World modeling co-training framework that adds auxiliary WM supervision to the same policy during RL, without changing the inference paradigm, and shows consistent improvements over strong RL baselines across models and RL algorithms.

Online Multi-Level Aggregation with Per-Batch Maximum Delay

The deterministic guarantee matches the known fixed-node lower bound, and the matching randomized lower bound are proved, ensuring that both guarantees are optimal on every nondegenerate rooted tree.

Train at Moving Edge: Online-Verified Prompt Selection for Efficient RL Training of Large Reasoning Model

This work proposes HIVE (History-Informed and online-VErified prompt selection), a dual-stage framework for data-efficient RL that utilizes historical reward trajectories for coarse selection and employs prompt entropy as a real-time proxy to prune instances with stale utility.

Online Service with Per-Batch Maximum Delay

This work uses spatial blindness---announced requests whose locations are revealed only when visited---as a stress test: dyadic exploration preserves a constant ratio on a known finite line, while a single hidden request on a star forces a loss linear in its degree.

Personalized Treatment Outcome Prediction from Scarce Data via Dual-Channel Knowledge Distillation and Adaptive Fusion

A cross-fidelity knowledge distillation and adaptive fusion network (CFKD-AFN), which leverages abundant but low-fidelity simulation data to enhance the prediction on scarce but high-fidelity trial data, and is extended to an interpretable variant for exploratory analysis of feature-attribution patterns associated with...

Cooperative Coevolution for Resource-Constrained Agentic LLM Post-Training

CoPES is introduced, a cooperative coevolutionary method that decomposes the full parameter space into lower-dimensional subspaces and searches over them cooperatively to improve optimization efficiency and demonstrate an improved trade-off between memory requirements and training time for agentic LLM post-training und...

Not All Problems Are Best Modeled as MILP: A DSL-Centric Framework for Flexible and Accurate Optimization Modeling

OptiDSL is proposed, a framework that shifts the focus from rigid MILP formulations to domain-specific language (DSL) representations, and enables seamless integration with a diverse library of specialized solvers, ranging from traditional heuristics to modern learning-based methods.
