Multimodal large language models (MLLMs) show promising reasoning capabilities, but reliable physical interaction requires planning that accounts for when actions are executable and how they change…
Large pretrained models such as CLIP are widely used as frozen feature extractors. However, their embeddings inherit spurious correlations from training data, introducing bias into the features.
LLM-generated records increasingly populate production information systems where they are treated as data assets subject to the same quality expectations as records from operational databases. A…
Large language models (LLMs) have been explored as surrogates for human survey respondents. A more promising application is data augmentation, where LLMs predict new responses from partial human data.
Automatic phenotype information extraction plays an important role in rare disease diagnosis, genotype-phenotype analysis, and precision medicine. However, accurately identifying phenotype concepts…
Diffusion language models generate by iteratively denoising a masked sequence under bidirectional attention, without the strict left-to-right commitment of autoregressive decoding. Whether this…
Aligned large language models are trained to comply with benign requests while refusing harmful ones. However, recent work shows that this refusal behavior is fragile and can often be disrupted by…
Fine-grained multimodal intelligence requires models to both understand a designated region and localize it from language. Existing methods learn these directions with separate objectives and…
Multi-modal Large Language Models (MLLMs) have seen broad adoption, but their biases are still far less examined than those of standard LLMs, creating possible social harms when deployed in…
Speculative decoding accelerates large language model inference by employing a compact draft model to propose candidate tokens that are verified in parallel by a target model. Conventional training…
Retrieval-based in-context learning (ICL) enables large language models (LLMs) to predict tabular labels from similar examples, but it remains unclear whether LLM inference improves on direct voting…
While Chain-of-Thought (CoT) prompting improves the reasoning performance of large language models (LLMs), recent studies have shown that final answers do not always depend on the generated…
Temporal reasoning is widely assumed to decompose into two modes: temporal arithmetic (date and time calculations), and temporal semantics (understanding temporal and causal relations). This…
Biometric recognition often degrades under partial facial vis- ibility, where conventional facial cues are occluded. The forehead region remains consistently visible and contains distinctive crease…
Codes of professional ethics guide and restrict specialists, who increasingly work with assistants built on large language models. Such an assistant can breach the user's code, or help the user…
Large language models (LLMs) have shown great potential as general-purpose user simulators for interactive systems. Prior studies have demonstrated that training on high-quality data can…
Recent advances in multi-turn reinforcement learning (RL) have substantially improved the performance of LLM agents on complex, long-horizon interactive tasks. However, despite progress in…
While agentic reinforcement learning (RL) has emerged as a promising paradigm for training small language models (SLMs), existing frameworks are predominantly tool-centric and struggle with…
We are the first to give a certified rule for whether unseen data belong in a pretrained model's context or its weights, built on an exact law for their information value. That value, the code length…
Preference optimization can improve every ranking metric while building a hidden, shared representation shift that the relative loss barely sees, one that can eventually destroy generation. We trace…
Promptable segmentation models such as SAM 3 achieve remarkable open-vocabulary performance but require dedicated architectures, large-scale annotation engines, and task-specific training. We ask a…
Creative prompt expansion improved overall audiovisual quality scores over raw prompts in a controlled pilot of VideoGen Model 1, our post-trained version of MiniMax H3. We compared the raw,…
Deep learning based models accurately delineate tumours on dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI (DCE-MRI), but segmentation masks alone do not provide the rationales or reasoning used by radiologists to…
Sparse Mixture-of-Experts (SMoE) models improve scalability by routing input tokens to only a subset of expert networks, but they often suffer from representation collapse, in which multiple experts…
