Pruning Binarized Neural Networks: A Dedicated Framework and Globally Weighted Algorithms

arXiv:2608.26233v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Extreme compression of deep neural networks, up to full binarization, dramatically reduces memory footprint and arithmetic complexity, facilitating deployment on constrained edge hardware with field-programmable gate arrays (FPGAs) and microcontrollers. Although combining binarization with pruning…

Privacy Without Regret: Differentially Private Inference-Time Alignment

arXiv:2608.26324v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Best-of-N (BoN) sampling is the simplest and most widely deployed inference-time alignment strategy, but it suffers from two distinct problems: reward hacking, in which the selected response exploits errors in the proxy reward model, and…

Incremental Recommendation via Causal Models

arXiv:2608.26804v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Recommendation impressions are a finite resource, hence delivering a recommendation to a user who would discover the content organically yields no incremental value and displaces other recommendations that could. We address this by extending an…

Diff Mining: Logit Differences Reveal Finetuning Objectives

arXiv:2608.26462v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Finetuning has become the gold standard for refining existing behaviors and inducing new ones in language models, yet it often remains unclear exactly which behaviors emerge during this process. As models grow ever more capable,…

Algebraic Multigrid Acceleration for Efficient Label Spreading

arXiv:2608.26309v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Modern machine learning models rely on large amounts of labeled data. However, manual annotation of large-scale datasets is expensive and time-consuming. Label spreading is a semi-supervised learning technique that addresses this challenge by propagating information…

FoldPipe: Bounded Remote Streaming of Native Molecular Shards with Asynchronous Prefetch

arXiv:2608.27029v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Training molecular machine-learning models on ephemeral or memory-constrained accelerator instances can require repeatedly retrieving preprocessed molecular graphs from remote storage. FoldPipe is a lightweight Python orchestration layer for already-sharded PyTorch and PyTorch Geometric data. It…
