arXiv:2509.12760v5 Announce Type: replace Abstract: We introduce the Similarity-Distance-Magnitude (SDM) activation function, a more robust and interpretable formulation of the standard softmax activation function, adding Similarity (i.e., correctly predicted depth-matches into training) awareness and Distance-to-training-distribution awareness to the existing output…
arXiv:2606.09547v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Learning everyday skills, like cooking a dish, relies increasingly on instructional media such as online videos. This opens the door to the use of video (and multimodal) large language models (LLMs) as task guidance assistants.…
arXiv:2410.05662v4 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Most federated learning (FL) approaches assume a fixed device set. However, real-world scenarios often involve devices dynamically joining or leaving the system, driven by, e.g., user mobility patterns or handovers across cell boundaries. This dynamic…
arXiv:2605.04913v4 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: LLM post-training typically propagates task gradients through the full depth of the model. Although this end-to-end structure is simple and general, it couples task adaptation to full-depth activation storage, long-range backward dependencies and direct task-gradient…
arXiv:2606.08843v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We present a voice conversion (VC) framework that utilizes K-Nearest Neighbors (KNN) retrieval over WavLM representations to align non-parallel source and target speech, constructing synthetic training pairs for supervised learning. The retrieved segments serve as…
arXiv:2605.18643v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) scales language models efficiently through sparse expert activation, and its dynamic variant further reduces computation by adjusting the activated experts in an input-dependent manner. Existing dynamic MoE methods usually rely on pre-training from…
arXiv:2510.12744v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We develop a unified statistical framework for softmax-gated Gaussian mixture of experts (SGMoE) that addresses three long-standing obstacles in parameter estimation and model selection: (i) non-identifiability of gating parameters up to common translations, (ii) intrinsic…
arXiv:2606.07571v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Key-value (KV) caching for shared prefixes is essential for high-throughput large language model (LLM) serving, but it faces critical challenges in emerging diffusion language models (DLMs). In DLMs, bidirectional attention means that updating any token…
arXiv:2606.07576v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We present CARTOGRAPH, a verification layer for AI scientists that couples unresolved-subspace experiment steering (select), explicit ambiguity closure (resolve), and residual-based library inadequacy detection (refuse). Under a local linear-Gaussian bridge, raw unresolved projection is the…
arXiv:2606.07565v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Intelligent scaling of microservices in cloud platforms is crucial for mitigating escalating compute costs while avoiding service disruptions. Current solutions are limited to the univariate space, typically focusing on CPU usage alone to drive scaling…
