ClusterFewshot is proposed, a strategy that combines semantic structuring with utility-aware scoring to construct representative and effective few-shot demonstration sets and substantially reduces optimization cost across multiple benchmarks.
This work identifies a systematic upstream/downstream structure in dLLM rollouts and proposes Informed Masking (IM), which derives a per-token priority score from the denoising trajectory at zero extra inference cost and biases mask sampling toward downstream tokens.

This work provides a systematic analysis protocol for studying length-based training in variable-length speech models through matched comparisons, and results are consistent with a link between chunk-length variation and token weighting.

The first experiments on isolated sign language recognition (ISLR) for Icelandic Sign Language (ITM) are presented, and transfer from better-resourced sign languages is promising for very low-resource ones.

BELXTR is presented, a novel embedding model based on the multi-vector (a.k.a. late interaction) architecture, which allows to leverage token-level matching information in biomedical entity linking by integrating an existing task-specific training objective and exploring active query expansion.
The results support generated memory as a selective correction to direct retrieval and highlight routing when, which, and how strongly to intervene as the central challenge.

Arafa is introduced, a new large-scale dataset for fact-checking in Modern Standard Arabic, constructed through an automated framework leveraging large language models (LLMs) and presented a scalable approach for developing similar resources for other low-resource languages.

We reply to the comments by M. Sienicki and K. Sienicki (arXiv:2512.07881) and by K. Sienicki (arXiv:2601.06104) on our work on quantum-mechanical statistics in human language (arXiv:2407.14924) and on quantum structure in AI-generated language (arXiv:2511.21731). We thank the authors for their careful reading and addr...

Adoption and diffusion of neologisms in online communities have received renewed attention in recent years. As internet slang terms such as APT, referring to a K-pop song, and phrases such as Canon Event meaning an embarrassing but pivotal event, go viral online, it becomes increasingly important to understand the mech...
This work introduces Qwen3.8-Omni-Flash, a natively multimodal agentic model for real-world multimodal productivity and releases Qwen-Live-Harness, an open-source framework for building responsive, real-time multimodal agents based on Qwen3.8-Omni-Flash.
We study what LLMs do when a user applies pressure in an uncomfortable situation: a user insists, begs, flatters or grieves, and the model gives up a correct fact, writes a document it should refuse, or cheers a plan that will cost the user money. We send frozen multi-turn scenes, identical for every model regardless o...
Legal argument mining supports passage classification, retrieval, and argument completion. This work introduces an expert-annotated dataset of 42 U.S. federal tax opinions on corporate reorganizations under I.R.C. {\S}368. To our knowledge, it is the first expert-annotated, tree-structured argument corpus for this doma...

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.
