Hide and Seek: HIDE Concepts to SEEK explanations for black box models

Interpreting machine learning model predictions is a central challenge, particularly for black-box vision models. Concept-based attribution methods interpret models using human-understandable concepts. Existing concept-based methods can only interpret classification and regression models. They require access to model w...

Revisiting Tabular Deep Regression: Objectives and the Limits of Global Early Stopping

While deep learning models for tabular data have recently received significant research attention, the choice of objective functions for regression tasks remains an understudied degree of freedom. Several lines of research offer alternatives to the standard Mean Squared Error (MSE), but differences in datasets, backbon...

Task Context Shapes Component Roles in Language Models

These findings show that task context changes both which graph facts the shared components respond to and how their outputs affect later computation, which may help explain how models use shared parameters to perform different computations.

SpatialASM: Internalizing Active Mentalization for Spatial Reasoning

When solving complex spatial reasoning tasks, ordinary humans naturally revisit the scenes from task-relevant viewpoints and mentally reconstruct the spatial layouts from those viewpoints. But can Large Vision-Language Models (LVLMs) proactively think in the same way? We term this ability Active Spatial Mentalization (...

MC-EvoBench: Auditing Experience-Driven Self-Improvement in Minecraft Agents

A central challenge in embodied recursive self-improvement is enabling agents to convert interaction history into capabilities that persist beyond one world and transfer to later tasks. A saved memory or successful final action does not by itself establish that a reusable capability was acquired; evaluation must separa...

Same Query, Different Answer: Run-to-Run Variance in Semantic Query Processing

Semantic query engines ask a large language model (LLM) to judge individual rows, and benchmarks compare these engines on the quality of a few executions at temperature 0. We measure how much another execution changes. We re-execute the text and tabular workloads of SemBench, LRO-Bench, and UDA-Bench through their own...

FORTE: A Production Framework for Feature Evaluation and Deprecation in Industrial Recommender Systems

Production recommender systems have feature-lifecycle asymmetry: adding new features must produce gains on some metric, while feature removal must not regress any metric. In practice, feature deprecation is hard to prioritize as a feature can fail to be removed if it interacts with other features, its importance change...

Your Discrete Graph Diffusion Model is Secretly Memorizing

Discrete graph diffusion models (GDMs) corrupt the graph structure by adding noise independently to nodes and edges under a Markovian noise model. In the unconditional setting without node features, an equivariant denoiser trained on a single graph is able to generate novel graphs and sample-level metrics such as edge...

ReplaySSM: Cache SSM Inputs, Not State

State-space models (SSMs) maintain a fixed-size recurrent state, but reading and writing it at every decoding step can bottleneck hybrid models. This eager state management causes large state I/O with low arithmetic intensity, leaves speculative decoding no cheap rollback, and feeds state quantization error into subseq...

DualQuant: Dual-scale Calibration-free Weight-and-Activation Quantization for LLMs

Low-bit inference on accelerators with native 4-bit support requires quantizing both weights and activations to realize the full throughput gains these formats provide. While post-training weight quantization has been extensively studied, activation quantization remains considerably more challenging and typically requi...

When Edge Independence Fails: Joint Graph Diffusion with Latent Sociability Priors

Discrete graph diffusion models corrupt graph structure through independent edge updates with a Markovian noise model. Combined with the exchangeability requirement on the output distribution, the terminal prior is necessarily an Erd\H{o}s--R\'enyi (E-R) random graph. This has a fundamental consequence for unconditiona...

Matched-Context Group Policy Optimization for LLM Agent Training

Training long-horizon language model agents requires assigning credit to intermediate decisions from sparse terminal feedback. Within a finite group of sibling rollouts, useful action comparisons depend on their context, evidence for both alternatives, and how that evidence enters learning. We propose Matched-Context G...
