- Neuron Populations Exhibit Divergent Selectivity with Scale
We investigate whether neuron populations within neural networks evolve predictably with scale, extending scaling laws beyond macroscopic observables such as loss. To probe this question, we study Rosetta Neurons, a previously characterized class of neurons whose activation patterns are similar acro...
- Skill-RM: Unifying Heterogeneous Evaluation Criteria via Agent Skill
Reward models (RMs) provide critical feedback signals for LLM post-training, notably in reinforced fine-tuning (RFT) and reinforcement learning (RL) pipelines. However, current reward evaluation relies on heterogeneous criteria such as rule-based verifiers, ground-truth references, procedural checkl...
- Quantifying Faithful Confidence Expression in Large Reasoning Models
Reliable uncertainty communication is critical to the trustworthiness of LLMs, yet faithful calibration (FC)--the alignment between models' intrinsic and (linguistically) expressed confidence--is a persistent failure mode. This challenge is key for large reasoning models (LRMs), whose extended reaso...
- QUBRIC: Co-Designing Queries and Rubrics for RL Beyond Verifiable Rewards
Rubric-based RL is a promising route for extending reinforcement learning beyond verifiable rewards, yet existing methods optimize rubrics while treating the query distribution as fixed. We identify a structural bottleneck: rubric quality is constrained by query structure. Open-ended queries yield v...
- AlignAtt4LLM: Fast AlignAtt for Decoder-Only LLMs at IWSLT 2026 Simultaneous Speech Translation Task
We describe AlignAtt4LLM, an IWSLT 2026 simultaneous speech translation system for English to German, Italian, and Chinese. The system is a synchronous cascade: Qwen3-ASR with forced alignment produces an incrementally updated source transcript, and Gemma-4 E4B-it translates that prefix under an MT-...
- Agentic Chain-of-Thought Steering for Efficient and Controllable LLM Reasoning
Large language models improve final-answer accuracy through extended chain-of-thought reasoning, but often spend tokens inefficiently and offer little inference-time control. Existing efficient reasoning methods control thinking length by shortening, early-stopping, or compressing traces, leaving ho...
- Knowledge Editing in Masked Diffusion Language Models
Knowledge editing aims to update or correct factual knowledge in a language model. A widely used approach, locate-then-edit, does this in two steps: it first localizes a fact within the model, then edits the weights there. To date, such methods have been developed exclusively on autoregressive model...
- Synthesize and Reward -- Reinforcement Learning for Multi-Step Tool Use in Live Environments
Training LLMs to orchestrate multi-step tool calls is held back by three coupled obstacles: realistic stateful execution environments are costly to build, synthetic training queries are often detached from the server's actual state (so the generated tool calls fail to execute), and recall-based RL r...
- Visual Instruction Tuning Aligns Modalities through Abstraction
Visual instruction tuning effectively adapts a pre-trained Large Language Model (LLM) to process image information alongside text. Yet, it remains unclear how visual features are embedded into the layer-wise hierarchy of abstractions of the LLM backbone. Across a diverse set of vision-language archi...
- A Training-Free Mixture-of-Agents Framework for Multi-Document Summarization using LLMs and Knowledge Graphs
Multi-Document Summarization (MDS) plays a critical role in distilling essential information from collections of textual data. Existing approaches often struggle to capture complex inter-document relationships, rely heavily on large amounts of labeled data for supervised training, or exhibit limited...
- Taiji: Pareto Optimal Policy Optimization with Semantics-IDs Trade-off for Industrial LLM-Enhanced Recommendation
Scaling recommender systems via large language models (LLMs) has become a prominent trend in the industry. However, aligning the LLM's semantic space with the recommender's ID space via post-training (e.g., SFT and RL) remains challenging. Existing LLM4Rec paradigms are bottlenecked by two main issu...
- Clustered Self-Assessment: A Simple yet Effective Method for Uncertainty Quantification in Large Language Models
Large language models (LLMs) demonstrate remarkable performance across diverse tasks, but they often generate responses that appear plausible while being factually incorrect. This problem is compounded by the lack of explicit uncertainty estimates, which makes it difficult for users to judge the rel...
- Dynamic Short Convolutions Improve Transformers
Transformers have become the dominant architecture for large language models, largely due to the scalability and flexibility of attention, feed-forward layers, residual connections, and normalization. This paper introduces dynamic short convolutions as an additional neural network primitive for impr...
- Exploring Adversarial Robustness and Safety Alignment in Multilingual Multi-Modal Large Language Models
Multimodal Large Language Models integrate visual perception into language reasoning, introducing a continuous attack surface susceptible to adversarial attacks. Prior work on MLLM robustness has focused largely on English-centric tasks, leaving multilingual behaviour unexplored. We address this gap...
- Backdoor Unlearning Generalization: A Path Toward the Removal of Unknown Triggers in LLMs
Backdoor attacks in Large Language Models (LLMs) are a growing security concern, where models can generate adversary-chosen content. Existing defenses target backdoors one at a time and typically require knowledge of the trigger, leaving the defender at a structural disadvantage when unknown backdoo...
- Reasoning over Grammar: Can Synthetic Linguistic Reasoning Traces Enhance Low-Resource Machine Translation?
Large language models (LLMs) offer a promising approach to machine translation (MT) for extremely low-resource languages by incorporating linguistic resources through in-context learning. However, LLMs often struggle to apply grammatical information effectively during translation. Inspired by recent...
- KletterMix: Climbing Toward High-Quality German Pretraining Data
High-quality pretraining data is a central ingredient in modern language models, but German-language resources remain far less developed than their English counterparts: they are often smaller, less carefully curated, weakly documented, and rarely validated through controlled training experiments. W...
- HybridThinker: Efficient Chain-of-Thought Reasoning via Compressed Memory and Transient Thought Steps
Extended chain-of-thought (CoT) traces improve LLM reasoning but incur substantial computational and memory costs. While existing CoT compression methods mitigate this by condensing thought steps into compact representations via memory tokens and retaining only these representations at inference tim...
- Framing Migration News with LLMs: Structured CoT as a Support for Human Interpretation
Frame analysis of migration news is a socially consequential task: media scholars and researchers who study how migration is narrated need tools that are not only accurate, but transparent, auditable, and accessible within the resource constraints typical of academic research groups. Existing LLM-ba...
- Entropy Gate: Entropy Quenching for Near-Lossless Token Compression in LLM Pipelines
LLM pipelines waste substantial token budgets on low-information content: repeated context, verbose responses, and redundant boilerplate. We introduce Entropy Gate, a token compression framework applying entropy quenching $-$ a thermodynamic process that progressively freezes out low-energy tokens w...
- Re-Ranking Through an Attribution Lens for Citation Quality in Legal QA
Retrieval-augmented generation systems for legal question answering typically retrieve passages based on semantic similarity and provide them to a language model, which then generates cited answers. Prior work assumes that highly ranked passages are most likely to be usefully cited by the model. Per...
