This work proposes a framework to evaluate semiotic alignment between texts, where a semiotic profile encompasses both the contextual meaning and the discourse references made salient by a text.
TransBERT, a novel framework for pre-training language models using exclusively synthetically translated text, is presented, and TransCorpus, a scalable translation toolkit is introduced, a scalable translation toolkit for building high-quality NLP resources in low-resource language/domain pairs.

WatchPoint is introduced, a simulated-user system that mimics real developer behavior by generating and executing diagnostic scripts against the running application, producing structured observations that guide the coding model's retry and identifies a pattern of capability gaps that governs when simulated-user feedbac...

Experiments demonstrate that DDPO significantly outperforms static prompt optimization methods, particularly on weakly aligned models and when handling semantically ambiguous benign prompts, successfully distinguishing them from genuinely harmful requests.

The results show that weight-only statistical scoring can match or outperform data-dependent methods for structured head pruning, providing a practical, zero-cost criterion for Transformer compression.

TSS, a target-side sparsification framework for speculative decoding that employs an acceptance- and metric-aware breadth search to explore multi-layer skip configurations without imposing a fixed priority between the two objectives, is proposed.

Applying large language models to Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) prescription generation reveals three clinically critical gaps: models produce end-to-end mappings without auditable reasoning following the li-fa-fang-yao paradigm (SR Gap), treat each encounter in isolation without follow-up adjustment via sui zheng...

Language models are increasingly trained on the outputs of other models, forming chains that the authors call lineages, in which a trait present in one generation can pass to the next, and whether such a trait holds or fades across lineages is studied.

A Context-to-Answer-Aligned Memory Compression (CMC) framework is proposed, which compresses long input contexts into compact Context Memory Embeddings aligned to any frozen decoder's embedding space, reducing inference costs without modifying decoder weights.

Deploying Large Language Models for runtime operational triage incurs prohibitive latency (>100-500 ms), high VRAM requirements (>4-8 GB), and excessive energy dissipation. Extending Mandelbrot Fractal Neural Synthesis (Dagli et al., 2026), this paper presents the Universal Fractal Natural Language Decision Map, realiz...
This work studies parallel coding agents' failures with stale, a benchmark for semantic coordination, and finds that among 834 runs on 417 mined Django pairs, only one showed interference after correcting the grading procedure.

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.
