This work proposes the Agent-Editing World Model (AEWM), which models how reasoning and actions shape future task progress rather than simulating tool responses, and combines AEWM with EditAct, which integrates these capabilities with real execution.

Elastic Weight Consolidation preserves general capabilities best in both stages; on the 8B Spanish model the average score on general benchmarks drops 1.7 points versus 11.0 for standard fine-tuning, yet its scores for formality and grammatical gender control remain close to standard fine-tuning.

Weight-space post-training quantization is formulated as pre-deployment configuration selection using priced layer-output error and a trace reduction then yields a calibration-time price table and a budgeted price-guided selector, making fixed-geometry bit allocation a special case rather than the organizing problem.

The key-value (KV) cache of autoregressive transformers can be viewed as a fourth-order tensor spanning attention heads, tokens, features, and grouped layers. We measure the singular-value spectra of all four mode unfoldings on Mistral-7B-v0.3 and LLaMA-2-13B and compare four standard tensor decompositions: Tucker, CP,...

It is demonstrated that model selection, retrieval behaviour, and hardware limits must be evaluated separately when deploying open-weight LLMs for Turkish domain documents.

This work reformulates eviction as a deployment risk-control problem: a material degradation occurs when eviction lowers task utility by more than a deployment-specified tolerance relative to full-KV inference on the same request, and deployment risk is the population frequency of such events.

This work presents an approach that ranks encoder layers by the leave-one-layer-out change in Word Error Rate (WER), and presents the pruned model, which is simply a more shallow encoder with fewer layers.
The findings are descriptive and do not support causal claims of progress: technological coexistence and uneven reporting are part of the map, but the A2+ to A3+ cliff is the contribution, not a quality ladder.
Overall, these findings highlight the trade-off on the use of pre-trained models with novel AI-assisted educational questions and how strategic feature enhancements help address loss in performance.

DeltaS is proposed, a query-agnostic, training-free method that retains video chunks inducing larger normalized state change, or state drift, in a controlled comparison with the budget and retention policy held fixed, which suggests that the two memories of hybrid architectures can work cooperatively.

This work introduces WISE (Working-set Inference with Support Exploitation), a training-free method that uses unrestricted attention during early recurrent steps to discover a block-structured working set, then reuses its support in later steps while keeping attention weights and recurrent refinement dynamic.
This work introduces RECAP (REdundancy-aware Credit Assignment via Propagation), which addresses this limitation by assigning credit where it is due based on both a step's downstream role in the reasoning structure and its contribution to solving the problem correctly.

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.
