EntmaxKV is introduced, an entmax-native sparse decoding framework that exploits sparsity before KV pages are loaded, and a Gaussian-aware entmax selector that estimates the entmax threshold from lightweight page statistics, adapting the selected budget to the score distribution.

Matryoshka Representation Learning (MRL) is a widely adopted approach for training text encoders so they provide useful text representations at various sizes, available by simply truncating the resulting vectors at sizes pre-determined at training time. Recent works have shown that randomly truncating text embeddings h...

This work introduces MulTaBench, a benchmark of 40 datasets, split equally between image-tabular and text-tabular tasks, designed to enable the research of novel architectures which incorporate joint modeling and target-aware representations, paving the way for the development of novel Multimodal Tabular Foundation Mod...

Targeted data selection seeks training examples from a candidate pool that improve downstream task performance. While trajectory-based selectors effectively guide this process, existing approaches typically construct reference states by warming up on the candidate pool itself, thereby inheriting pool-dependent distribu...

Flux Attention is introduced, a context-aware framework that dynamically optimizes attention computation at the layer level by integrating a lightweight Layer Router into frozen pretrained LLMs, which adaptively routes each layer to FA or SA based on the input context.

When a model solves a problem on one attempt and fails it on the next, what separates the two is rarely the final answer token; it is the trajectory that reached it. Contrastive activation steering leaves that signal unused: CAA, SADI, RepE and ITI build their direction from experimenter-supplied text, recorded while t...

As frontier AI systems are pretrained on web-scale data, test set contamination has become a critical concern for accurately assessing their capabilities. While research has thoroughly investigated the impact of test set contamination on discriminative evaluations like multiple-choice question-answering, comparatively...

ICER is a black-box framework that addresses the gap in text-to-image models in harmful content generation through two components: an LLM-based rewriter that produces fluent, natural-language adversarial prompts, and in-context experience replay that accumulates successful jailbreaking patterns into a reusable prior.

Looped transformers have demonstrated promising parameter efficiency by reusing layers for latent computation. Prior studies compare looped and non-looped models at matched parameters or per-token FLOPs. However, to the best of our knowledge, whether looping improves test-time scaling as outputs grow longer remains und...

A language-model agent is jointly defined by its model and its harness, the executable program that organizes model calls, tool use, and information flow. Because different tasks call for different ways of organizing these operations, the harness needs to be adapted using feedback from the task at hand. We introduce ha...

Zero-knowledge proofs can verify computing results without rerunning workloads or exposing sensitive data. Magnetar helps bring them into the mainstream with support for standard programming languages, major speed gains, and quantum-resistant security. The post Proof-based general-purpose computing with Magnetar appeared first on Microsoft Research.
