MEPO-SLM: multi-objective evolutionary prompt optimization for energy-efficient small language models on edge devices

Aug 2026 · Evolutionary Intelligence · Vol 19 · 0 citations · 55 references

TL;DR

MEPO-SLM is presented, a framework that reformulates prompt engineering for SLMs as a four-objective Pareto problem over task inaccuracy, and Phi-3-mini and Gemma-2B on English TriviaQA and Arabic medical QA, and TinyLlama-1.1B on TriviaQA only are evaluated.

Generalized adaptive bridge regression: a unified framework for high-dimensional architecture discovery

The generalized adaptive bridge regression (GABR) framework successfully identifies optimal, off-grid grouping architectures and is evaluated on simulated architectures, demonstrating its dynamic adaptivity to structural sparsity, collinearity, and varying signal-to-noise ratios.

Detection of unobserved common causes under additive noise models based on NML code for discrete, mixed, and continuous variables

The causal relationship between two random variables is categorized into four categories: two direct-case cases, two cases in which the variables are independent, and a case in which the variables are confounded by unobserved common causes.
