<details open> server : allow RANK pooling batch splitting for causal LLM rerankers (ie. Qwen3 and Qwen3-VL) (#28876) * server : allow splitting RANK pooling for causal LLM rerankers Rerank models fall into two categories: bidirectional cross-encoders (BERT, etc.) that require all tokens in a single physical batch, and causal LLMs repurposed as rerankers (Qwen3, Qwen3-VL) that can use chunked prefill like any other decoder. Previously the server rejected all RANK-pooling inputs larger than n_ubatch, and the graph builder hardcoded QWEN3/QWEN3VL arch checks to determine last-token pooling. This broke long-document and multimodal reranking for causal models. Fix: expose llama_get_causal_attn(c

<details open> cuda: add F16 input to the FWHT (#29096) * cuda: add F16 input to the FWHT The CUDA FWHT accepts F32 input only. This makes the source type a template parameter, so the kernel reads an F16 source directly instead of requiring a converted copy. The F32 path is unchanged. supports_op accepts an F16 src1 against an F32 src0 for the Hadamard hint. Every other F16 src1 against a non-F16 src0 is still refused. ggml_cuda_op_mul_mat_use_fwht is the single predicate both supports_op and the dispatch call now share, checking contiguity and same-shape(src1, dst) in addition to the type/hint conditions above.

<details open> mtmd: fix mel preprocessor in LFM2 audio (#29403) which resulted in different greedy transcripts for 4.5% of English and 6.5% of Japanese test utterances. In Japanese, some differences changed entire words. This change: * uses `log(x + 2^-24)` instead of clamping to the log floor * uses a symmetric Hann window, equivalent to `torch.hann_window(periodic=False)` * adds the normalization epsilon to the standard deviation instead of inside the square root Only the `lfm2a` preprocessor opts into these behaviors. Other audio preprocessors are unchanged. Tested on top of 84e76d8 using `llama-server` with CUDA and `temperature=0`, compared against http://github.com/Liquid4All/liquid-a

The two phases share the same pattern table plus ggml_can_fuse_subgraph_ext for the structural checks, and differ only in the mode used for the pattern check (STRUCTURAL at optimize time, since tensors are not allocated yet, and FULL at compute time, including Metal buffer placement).

<details open> models : fix GDN normalization from `max` to `rsqrt` (#28068) * models: use flash-linear-attention's l2norm for gated delta net q/k The GDN q/k normalization is defined by flash-linear-attention as l2norm(x) = x * rsqrt(sum(x*x) + eps) with eps inside the root. Every GDN call site in the tree uses ggml_l2_norm instead, which is x / max(sqrt(sum(x*x)), eps), i.e. torch.nn.functional.normalize - its CUDA kernel cites that page. The clamp never engages at these magnitudes, so in practice llama.cpp normalizes with no epsilon at all where the reference has one inside the root. transformers made the same substitution when it first added Qwen3-Next and corrected it three days later i

<details open> cuda: fuse MoE weighted expert reduction (#25952) * cuda : fuse MoE weighted reduction (mul + view + add) The MoE combine tail currently writes weighted expert outputs to global memory before reducing them. That intermediate global-memory traffic is the main cost. The production baseline generally runs two physical fused kernels; this path runs one. This change matches the full expert-weighting plus ordered-reduction subgraph and replaces it with one weighted-reduction kernel. Supported graphs: - unscaled: experts * router_weights - scaled: (experts * expert_scale) * router_weights k = 2..15 is handled by one runtime-k kernel. Matching is structural: op sequence, shapes, strid
<details open> kv-cells: look up the n-gram history in the sequence position index (#28040) get_prev_tokens() rebuilt a (seq, pos) -> token hash map on every ubatch by walking all used cells, while llama_kv_cells already keeps an ordered index of the positions of each sequence in seq_pos, updated on every cell mutation to serve seq_pos_min() and seq_pos_max(). The index now stores (pos, cell) pairs in a std::set instead of a position -> count map, so a repeated position (cache reuse via rm + add, vision inputs with shared positions) yields distinct entries and the removal of a cell erases its own pair. The new seq_pos_tok_le() returns the token of the cell at the largest position <= p in log

<details open> CUDA: use the fast mm_ids_helper path for any n_expert_used (#27978) The optimized path grouped warp lanes by token and required warp_size % n_expert_used == 0, with a single hardcoded exception padding 6 up to 8. Every other count fell back to the generic path, which walks the tokens one at a time with a warp reduction per token, for each of the n_expert blocks. The lane group only has to divide the warp, and the loop body already guards the padded lanes with iex < n_expert_used, so the padding generalizes to the next power of two. The 6 -> 8 case and every count already dispatched keep the exact same padding as before. n_expert_used = 10 now reaches the fast path. Measured o

That matters for any model whose non-expert weights stay f16 -- the stock gpt-oss-20b release is exactly that, and its prefill spends 40.8% of GPU time in that one kernel. The xmem route already existed but was left opt-in, so nobody hit it. Worth about 25% prefill on gpt-oss-20b on an Adreno X2-90. Gated to X2E: the Adreno 840 measu

Gemini Omni 1.1 Flash lets you build with more control
Presented by Gravitee Agent complexity is the insidious shadow lurking inside enterprises right now that needs a light shone on it. That’s because enterprises don't deploy a single agent and watch it run, they deploy fleets, each one calling APIs, calling other agents, reaching into applications that were never built with a machine decision-maker in mind. That's the failure mode that should keep you up at night: a windy, complicated system nobody can see clearly enough to govern. But why do things get so opaque so quickly? Add a second agent to a system, and you've added one connection. Add a tenth, and you haven't added ten connections, you've potentially added dozens, because now any agent

Piloting the world's first double-blind AI evaluations
Presented by EDB As enterprises give AI agents more autonomy — the ability to plan, decide, and act across systems without a human approving each step — a hard question moves to the center of every architecture review: When an agent tries to complete an action that it was never authorized to do, what actually stops it? These are your agents, running on your models, touching your data in your infrastructure — and the responsibility for what they do sits with you. That responsibility can’t be met in hindsight or with a set of abstract policies that live on paper but not in practice. Agents need rules in the context of the moment, because they don’t exercise overriding judgment of their own act

With 320B total parameters and just 18B active parameters, it outperforms GLM-5.2 across benchmarks and real-world workloads at one-tenth the price, while approaching Claude Opus 4.8 on coding and agentic benchmarks. GLM-5.3-Flash starts from a newly trained base model, with its architecture and training recipe redesigned around capability and efficiency. For the first time in the GLM
Presented by Tata Communications Enterprises are deploying AI agents, voice AI, and automation across messaging, voice, and digital channels faster than the architecture meant to support it. Most of that deployment has involved attaching conversational AI to legacy systems never built for it, says Gaurav Anand, global head of the Customer Interaction Suite at Tata Communications. "In the rush to deploy AI, organizations have largely bolted conversational AI onto legacy systems," Anand says. "As a result, while many enterprises have adopted digital tools, very few have platforms that are truly integrated, scaled, and capable of seamless orchestration." That gap creates a heavy cognitive load

GR is a Qwen-developed residual architecture that combines Hyper-Connection with GatedNorm. It mixes multiple residual streams with fine-grained elementwise gating before each attention and Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) block, then controls how much of the block output is injected back into each stream. QSA uses multiple query heads to sco

This paper proposes a data-driven fire-zone segmentation method for improved short-term wildfire prediction. The authors use an unsupervised segmentation algorithm combining watershed detection and K-means clustering to define prediction units directly from historical fire patterns, instead of uniform grids. Experiments across six French departments and six forecasting models show that fire-zone segmentation consistently outperforms grid-based approaches, with mean IoU improvements of +3–6% depending on spatial scale. The method is computationally lightweight (<10s per configuration) and fully parallelizable.

The paper develops a formal framework for constructing canonical interpretations from plural structure theories. A structure theory is a triple (signature, axioms, inference policy) with an admissible interpretation family of globally consistent assignments. Three canonicalization levels are distinguished: closure stabilization, global completion, and determinization. Non-determinism is classified into epistemic plurality (Type E) and structural plurality (Type S), with Type S-strong lacking common upper bounds. Two mechanisms arise: operator-based completion and selector-based construction. Sufficient structural conditions are provided, and pure inference-based completion reduces to a saturated closure operator under positive, non-retractive rules with soundness. For Type E, closure stabilization is shown, while determinization depends on an open global confluence property. For Type S-strong, determinization is achieved via canonical selection. Multi-level canonicalization is structurally non-commutative via staged operators, with a conditional classification theorem. The framework applies to LLM-assisted reasoning, viewing hallucination as unsupported canonicalization.
Why it mattersProposes a formal framework to canonize plural structure theories, offering insights into LLM hallucinations as unsupported canonicalization, which could improve reasoning reliability.
NeuroPilot is an LLM-driven multi-agent pipeline for neuroimage processing, quality control, and data management. It encapsulates expertise into three LLM-invocable skills: dcm2bids-skill, neuroimage-pre-skill, and qc-agent-skill. Deployed across 17 cohorts (>123,000 subjects) spanning infant to aging populations and multiple MRI modalities, the system demonstrates generalizability. The QC agent screened 558 production subjects, validating automated flags against FreeSurfer topology-defect metrics. The infant processing pipeline achieved 100% (201/201) completion on QC-validated inputs, compressing the traditional 2–3 month timeline for training and processing into one week.

This paper proposes "Flow-by-Flow," a governance paradigm that controls supervisory load without evaluating content. The authors argue that human oversight in high-loss domains is constrained by V×L (output velocity × cognitive load), where triage, judgment, and response costs respond asymmetrically. They introduce a cognitive cost score based on formal, countable features and an institutional capacity cap, and derive four design invariants. A Monte Carlo analysis across 1,000 draws suggests composite multi-metric flow control outperforms supervision reinforcement alone in 90.8% of trials.
Why it mattersAddresses the scaling limits of human-in-the-loop oversight in high-stakes AI, proposing a content-judgment bypass mechanism that could enable safer AI governance without overwhelming human supervisors.

The paper 'Sharding Prevents LLM Oversight Failures and Adversarial Exploitation' shows that giving an LLM judge more compute does not necessarily improve oversight: as the number of verdicts per call grows, agreement with expert raters declines. Sharding—partitioning requirements into smaller groups, assigning each to a separate call, and aggregating results—mitigates this failure, improving agreement under a fixed budget. A sharded weaker judge can outperform a more capable holistic judge. Sharding also reduces over-acceptance under presentation-only adversarial attacks, but not per-criterion persuasion; adding debate-style opposition withstands such adaptive attacks.
The paper introduces TEXAS, a supervision method for adapting Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) language models to downstream tasks.

The paper introduces a generation-aligned diagnostic ladder to separate failures in speech language models on paralinguistic tasks into endpoint, decision-rule, and readout-coverage gaps. Across five systems and two emotion corpora, state decoding exceeds generation by 27.8 accuracy points on average; both gaps are positive in all ten conditions. A label-free logit correction improves generated accuracy in every condition, and emotion information outside the native readout generalizes to held-out speakers but replacing readout-external directions has little effect on emitted answers.
Why it mattersThe paper introduces a diagnostic framework to disentangle error sources in speech language models, enabling targeted improvements in paralinguistic tasks. By separating decision-rule misalignment from readout-coverage gaps, it provides actionable insights for model optimization.
This paper proposes a Multi-Semantic Basis Graph Foundation Model (MSB-GFM) for cross-domain multi-label node classification.

The paper presents UAV3DCrop, a public benchmark for 3D reconstruction in repeated multi-angle UAV crop surveys. It contains 88,830 RGB images at 5280×3956 pixels (GSD 3.6–5.8 mm) from 91 scenes of corn, soybean, wheat, and oat. Track A evaluates seven scene-optimized NeRF/3DGS variants on held-out views, photogrammetry-referenced depth, and canopy-height recovery; Track B tests four pretrained feed-forward models on zero-shot camera-pose and geometry estimation. Results show that no single method leads across all targets: Splatfacto-big leads appearance, Scaffold-GS leads depth, and MapAnything leads most feed-forward metrics. The authors conclude that current 3D reconstruction methods are not yet interchangeable for agronomic use. The dataset is publicly available.

This paper introduces Semidirect Fourier Delta Attention (SFDA), a generalization of Kimi Delta Attention that replaces real diagonal decay with block-rotational Fourier control. The main theoretical result is a constructive chunk-WY factorization enabling exact affine chunk transfer, formal stability and complexity bounds, and a compact characterization of phase-plus-low-rank memory. Experiments on toy state-tracking tasks show SFDA learns cyclic memory while the phase-disabled KDA baseline remains near chance. Fused kernels and large-scale language-model comparisons are left to future work.
Why it mattersLinear attention mechanisms compress memory into fixed states, limiting long-context tracking. SFDA introduces phase-controlled Fourier memory, which could significantly improve memory capacity without large overhead, with a constructive chunk-WY factorization ensuring stability and bounded rank growth. Toy experiments show it learns cyclic patterns where the baseline fails, but scaling to LMs remains unverified.

This paper investigates how message format (free NL, precision-instructed NL, JSON, triples, key-value) affects information fidelity in multi-hop LLM agent relays. Using a controlled relay testbed with programmatically generated atomic facts re-encoded over six hops, the study finds that format effects are tier-dependent: under faithful-relay instructions, strong relays are nearly lossless, with minimal impact from format or cognitive load; weak relays (1.5B) show 8.7x larger spread in six-hop recall across formats, with JSON's fixed-key schema providing drift resistance at an encoding cost; injected errors persist to the final hop in 83-100% of chains across all formats without collateral damage. Structure provides a faithful, error-localizing channel, not error correction, and format choice should follow the weakest relay in the pipeline.
Why it mattersAs multi-agent LLM systems become prevalent, understanding how message formats impact information fidelity over sequential relays is critical. This paper bridges conflicting literatures by showing effects are tier-dependent, guiding format selection to the weakest relay in the pipeline. Findings that strong models are nearly lossless under faithful instructions, while weak models benefit from structured formats like JSON, have direct practical implications for designing robust agent architectures.
This paper introduces the Format Sensitivity Index (FSI) and Parseability Sensitivity Index (PSI) to quantify how prompt wrapper formatting variations affect LLM performance and output compliance. Across 140,000 OpenRouter generations, FSI varied by over 30x across models, and parseability was a strong predictor of accuracy. The authors argue that reporting accuracy without wrapper variance and compliance is statistically fragile, and provide recommendations for benchmarking and structured-output deployments.
Why it mattersHighlights a critical, often overlooked factor in LLM benchmarking: prompt wrapper formatting can drastically alter leaderboard outcomes. Introduces measurable indices (FSI, PSI) to quantify this sensitivity, pushing the community toward more robust evaluation practices.

The paper 'RouteRec: Strict Evaluation of Recommender-Agent Selection and Aggregation' was published on arXiv cs.CL on July 14, 2026. It introduces the RouteRec framework, comparing request-level hard selection with item-level learned aggregation over four traditional and one LLM-based reranker agents. On the MovieLens-1M dataset, under a leakage-free 5-fold out-of-fold protocol, hard selection underperforms BM25 (HR@10=0.223 vs 0.254), while a cheap-only learned aggregation variant matches BM25 in HR and has a higher NDCG point estimate (0.123 vs 0.114). Gated all-agent aggregation achieves HR@10=0.295 but requires 70.2% LLM calls. The key lesson is that request-level selection is too coarse; item-level aggregation is a more promising direction.
Why it mattersThis paper provides empirical evidence that for recommender systems with multiple heterogeneous agents (including LLM-based rerankers), request-level hard selection is inferior to item-level learned aggregation under a strict evaluation protocol. It shows that a cheap-only aggregation variant matches BM25 performance while gated aggregation improves recall but at increased computational cost. These findings guide practitioners in building efficient hybrid recommenders, offering a framework to balance quality and cost, particularly when integrating LLMs.

This paper investigates the answer readout stage of chain-of-thought (CoT) reasoning in small language models for arithmetic tasks. It identifies a positional shortcut: models copy the number occupying the trailing position before the answer delimiter, regardless of intermediate reasoning. In 1-3B instruction-tuned models on GSM8K, the presence of the gold answer accounts for 54-92 percentage points of accuracy (89-92% of the teacher-forcing ceiling). Even on incorrect items, the final answer matches the last CoT number 95-96% of the time. Replacing the trailing number with a wrong value collapses accuracy to near-zero, while removing it recovers 5-32 pp above that floor. Qwen and Llama copy novel distractors 87-95% of the time; Gemma gates selectively. Head-level ablation implicates architecture-specific head sets; the effect replicates on GSM-Symbolic. On non-arithmetic BBH tasks, shuffle retention drops sharply; at 7-8B, content-selective gating emerges. Step-level faithfulness evaluations risk conflating positional answer transport with genuine computation, posing a failure mode for CoT-based oversight.

This paper proposes Query-Adaptive Semantic Chunking (QASC) for Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) systems. QASC dynamically constructs chunks using three mechanisms: cosine similarity scoring between sentence and query embeddings, contextual window expansion for coherence, and chunk-level score aggregation. Evaluated on 100 technical documents and 200 queries, QASC achieves an F1-score of 0.85, a relative improvement of 18-27% over fixed chunking and 8-12% over semantic and agentic alternatives. Ablation studies and human evaluation (Cohen kappa=0.82) confirm the contribution of each component.
Why it mattersQuery-adaptive chunking significantly improves retrieval in RAG systems, addressing a key bottleneck in AI applications that rely on external knowledge retrieval.

This paper analyzes how exogenous state (e.g., background clutter) hinders latent action learning from unlabeled videos. By extending a linear latent action model to explicitly model exogenous state, the authors find that minimizing the standard reconstruction objective encodes exogenous information from future observations, and learning in a representation space focused on endogenous components is key to mitigating noise. Additionally, previously proposed auxiliary objectives like action-supervision provably encourage latent actions to be consistent across exogenous states. Experiments on linear and nonlinear models validate the findings.

This paper proposes a three-stage framework to assess learner competency from egocentric nursing simulation videos, using frozen visual encoders (DINOv2) and few-shot learning for action recognition. On 22 sessions (3.8 hours, 493 actions), it achieves 57.4% MOF in leave-one-out 1-shot recognition. The study finds a negative correlation between recognition accuracy and competency (rho = -0.524, p=0.012 for mIoU): higher-competency students exhibit more diverse and harder-to-classify workflows but more protocol-consistent transitions. This suggests recognition accuracy as a pedagogically informative signal for automated competency assessment.

This paper investigates the performance of quantized LLaMA-3.1 (8B) models in qualitative analysis, focusing on different quantization levels (2-8 bit) and types. To address hallucinations and instability in low-bit models, it proposes a quantization-aware multi-pass prompt verification method that reduces hallucinations through controlled steps. Experiments using 82 interview transcripts compare against a gold standard (BF16 model and human coding). Results show 8-bit models perform closest to the gold standard; 4-bit models become stable with the method; 3-bit and 2-bit models degrade but improve with the approach. The method enables low-resource LLMs to be more stable and accurate for qualitative research at lower cost.

This paper presents a microservice architecture for operationalizing Document AI, encapsulating pipelines of classification, OCR, and LLM-based structured field extraction in production. Key design decisions include hybrid classification, separation of GPU-bound inference from CPU-bound orchestration, asynchronous IO processing, and independent horizontal scaling. Batch profiling reveals two surprising findings: OCR dominates end-to-end latency, and system saturation is determined by shared GPU-inference capacity rather than worker count. The goal is to provide practitioners with concrete architectural patterns for production-grade document understanding systems.

This study analyzes 15 frontier LLMs, 1,141 real-world skills, and over 3 million routing/execution decisions, identifying two coupled scaling laws in LLM agent systems: the routing law (single-step routing accuracy decays logarithmically with library size) and the execution law (correct execution improves difficult downstream decisions by about 4×). A single parameter b couples the two laws. Law-guided optimization raises held-out routing accuracy from 71.3% to 91.7%, reduces hijack from 22.4% to 4.1%, and improves pass rates on downstream benchmarks. Results show agent performance depends not only on model capability but also on skill library structure, granularity, and exposure policy.
