Learning new tasks in multimodal continual instruction tuning can cause catastrophic forgetting of previously acquired knowledge. Although multi-expert LoRA distributes learning across experts, updates to a dense low-rank expert can still affect many output features. We introduce Monarch-MoE, which replaces the dense f...

Time-series foundation models use the same network depth for every input, although forecasting windows differ in structure and difficulty. We test whether whole Transformer blocks can be removed at inference time in two pretrained models: Chronos-Bolt and TimesFM 2.5. Our bypasses avoid the original block computation a...
On-policy distillation (OPD) trains a target policy on its own rollouts using token-level supervision from a stronger teacher, but typically relies on the teacher being substantially more capable than the target. Recent work relaxes this requirement by transferring the relative policy difference between an expert and a...

Fast rollout generation for long-context reinforcement learning with verifiable rewards (RLVR) requires reducing KV-cache traffic without changing the response groups used for policy optimization. In our profiled RLVR workloads, attention accounts for 72--76\% of autoregressive decoding kernel time. Sparse attention re...

Federated Learning (FL) enables collaborative model training without exposing raw data, yet remains vulnerable to malicious clients injecting poisoned datasets. Existing defenses are typically reactive (operating during training) or supervised (requiring prior knowledge of attack types)—assumptions that rarely hold in...
Biological function in RNA is encoded across scales, from local sequence motifs to long-range structural dependencies. Conventional RNA foundation models couple parameter capacity and inference depth within a fixed architecture, prescribing a fixed computation graph for each inference. Here we present Eco-RNA, an 80M-p...

Failure attribution for LLM agents aims to identify decisive steps responsible for task failure, which is critical for debugging and improving agentic systems. Existing methods rely on costly LLM prompting, step-level error annotations, or verified successful trajectories that lack failure signals for assistance. In th...

Large language models (LLMs) are increasingly being explored as facilitators of group discussion and collaborative work, but the behavioral differences between LLM-generated and human facilitation remain insufficiently characterized. We compare human Project Manager facilitation turns from scenario-based collaborative...

Processing a long sequence does not guarantee that distant information remains usable. As context grows, a fixed-size memory must retain many associations, connect information across positions, and preserve relevant structure without being overwhelmed by everything it observes. These are distinct requirements: a memory...

Large Language Model (LLM) agents have demonstrated remarkable capabilities in tackling complex tasks through agentic workflows. However, manually designing these workflows is labor-intensive and lacks flexibility to adapt to diverse queries. While automated workflow optimization is a promising direction, existing meth...

Evaluating deep learning optimizer is challenging because confounding factors such as hyperparameter tuning and optimizer-model co-design often obscure true algorithmic performance. We present results of the updated AlgoPerf V1 benchmark, in which we evaluate a new set of training algorithms on wall-clock time-to-targe...

Trajectory extrapolation from a partial target trajectory is underdetermined, but completed related trajectories provide information about the unresolved continuation. We propose target-constrained pooling (TCP), which separates the finite-horizon endpoint from continuation shape and estimates that endpoint from two co...
