Experiments with remote decision-making agents depend on more than the policy: the world may change during inference, the simulator determines which actions are available, and births and immigration alter who can act. We present Jevolution, an instrumented spatial predator-prey framework that makes these dependencies e...

Asynchronous rollout improves the efficiency of reinforcement learning with verifiable rewards (RLVR) by reducing under-utilization during long-tail generation. Sustained concurrency also concentrates context processing into fewer decode steps, increasing the KV workload per step. We characterize this \emph{KV concentr...

Asynchronous reinforcement-learning post-training of large language models is computationally efficient but inherently off-policy: the learner updates on rollouts generated by a stale policy, while correcting this mismatch requires importance weights that can be extremely heavy-tailed. A small number of trajectories ma...
Computational coarse-graining aims to replace a sequence of updates with a cheaper module while preserving task performance. We present a continuation-relative evaluation framework that assesses replacements through the computation that follows them, using downstream task quality and total execution cost as joint crite...

It is widely appreciated that robotic policies require long-term memory to perform complex tasks. However, directly conditioning policies on all past observations leaves policy learning susceptible to learning spurious shortcuts, and introduces large latency at policy deployment. As such, today's memory-augmented polic...

This article offers an overview of recent developments in deep learning from a control vantage point. It reviews several classes of models including feedforward and residual neural networks, transformers, large-language models, and selective state space models while explaining how control theory plays an important role...

Dexterous robot hands can receive useful motion intent from teleoperation or learned policies, but successful execution also depends on contact decisions that these commands rarely specify. We introduce DexFLEX, a contact-aware foundation controller that turns upstream fingertip-motion drafts into contact-consistent jo...

Having demonstrated a strong potential for automating vulnerability discovery, AI agents can also be used to attack software systems at scale. Today's software systems need mechanisms to level the playing field by slowing down potential attacks, giving them time to patch vulnerabilities and strengthen software. Along t...

Foundation models like V-JEPA are increasingly deployed across a heterogeneous edge-cloud continuum spanning smart glasses, phones, robots, and servers. Yet, they are typically trained as rigid, fixed-capacity networks bound to one device, supporting neither reconfigurable compute budgets nor collaborative execution. E...

Reconstructing accurate camera poses and floor-plan layouts from sparse, unposed, wide-baseline RGB panoramas remains a challenging open problem. Direct multi-room floor-plan prediction is especially difficult in this setting: pose, geometry, semantics, and global layout structure are tightly coupled, yet a complete fl...

Video diffusion models increasingly serve as priors for 4D generation, but the generated videos often lack geometric consistency. Recent approaches address this through post-training by designing geometric rewards, yet this can degrade texture and fine detail, requiring auxiliary appearance rewards and careful reward b...

Learning long-range dependencies with recurrent neural networks (RNNs) is difficult because of the vanishing gradient problem. Gated recurrent neural networks like GRUs and LSTMs address this problem and are commonly explained by their ability to create additive copy paths through time. This explanation is correct, but...
