This work investigates prompt echoing small language models from different families and shows that echoing prompts are likely to have partial overlap with the training dataset but the phenomenon is primarily driven by the model's induction heads.

This work proposes a simple yet effective adaptive sampling strategy that assigns trainable sampling probabilities to each language and employs an inner-outer optimization loop with a small overhead, leading to consistent performance improvements and, more importantly, distributing the gains across languages.

This work presents TriCalRAG, a benchmark evaluating open-weight LLMs served locally via vLLM on a single high-memory workstation GPU against a classical LSTM-based log anomaly detector (DeepLog), across four real, publicly available log datasets (BGL, HDFS, Thun-derbird, OpenStack).

Results show the feasibility of delegating adaptive reasoning to the cloud while retaining execution control at the edge, and closed-loop repair improves application success from 0/6 to 6/6 over one-shot generation, validation gating prevents all three observed target-scale failures, and skill conditioning improves suc...
A corpus of 10,000 Bangla sentences, manually annotated into four functional categories, namely declarative, interrogative, imperative, and exclamatory is introduced, and Experimental results show that TF-IDF consistently outperforms Word2Vec, likely due to its ability to emphasize discriminative lexical cues associate...

ReWeight is introduced, a framework that incorporates human data into VLA post-training through demonstration-level retrieval and sample-level weighting and learns a cross-embodiment visuomotor representation that combines visual observations with future actions to measure behavioral similarity between human and robot...

Negation remains a longstanding challenge for both language models (LMs) and large language models (LLMs). Prior work mainly focuses on a small set of high-frequency single-word negation cues, such as not and never, with limited exploration of broader negation types and modern LLMs. To address this gap, we construct Ne...
The results provide a case study in which a medically fine-tuned checkpoint does not improve jargon comprehension over its general-purpose counterpart, highlighting that domain adaptation should not be assumed to yield better performance on specialized terminology.
Large language models solve hard problems through intermediate computations across multi-step reasoning. Traditional chain-of-thought encodes these computations as tokens. Recent continuous and recurrent methods instead move partial computations into fixed-dimensional latent states, where a single thought can superpose...
OrchSLM is introduced, a routing framework that unifies existing non-interactive orchestration methods and exposes their underlying design choices as controllable parameters, and reveals how orchestration behavior emerges from diverse knobs, including the task structure, model-pool composition, and multi-agent consensu...
Abstract Alzheimer's disease (AD) often remains undetected until memory loss and cognitive decline become clinically apparent, at which point substantial neurological damage has already occurred. Early and reliable diagnosis therefore, remains one of the most pressing challenges in dementia care. This study presents a...
