This paper proposes a neural framework to estimate pairwise conditional mutual information (MI) directly from the hidden states of a pretrained masked diffusion model (MDM), using ground-truth MI computed from the model's own conditional distributions for supervision. The estimator predicts the full MI matrix in a single forward pass, enabling MI-guided parallel decoding by identifying conditionally independent variable subsets. Evaluated on Sudoku and protein sequence generation with ESM-C, the method achieves a 3-5x reduction in inference-time forward passes while preserving generative quality and outperforming entropy-based parallelization methods.

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 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 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.

Standard quality metrics like perplexity increase less than 0.5% at 8-bit and under 3% at 4-bit, yet 2.5-5.6% of items already develop new biases at 4-bit, demonstrating that aggregate metrics systematically miss fairness-critical degradation.

This paper introduces RTM, which replaces single-pass latent mapping with recursive latent refinement to improve both quality and diversity in image generation. It argues that FID is saturated and conflates fidelity with mode coverage. RTM integrated with IMLE achieves the highest precision and recall among SOTA methods on CIFAR-10, CelebA-HQ, and few-shot benchmarks, while maintaining competitive FID, and also improves StyleGAN2 variants.

This paper proposes Deep Pre-Alignment (DPA), a novel architecture that replaces the standard ViT encoder with a small VLM as perceiver to deeply align visual features with the text space of the target LLM. DPA improves baselines by 1.9 points on 8 multimodal benchmarks at 4B scale and 3.0 points at 32B scale, while reducing language capability forgetting by 32.9%. Gains are consistent across Qwen3 and LLaMA 3.2 families.

This study analyzes 130,486 translated paragraphs from 106 novels in 16 source languages, including human, Google Translate, and TranslateGemma translations, and finds a consistent negative correlation between fluency and faithfulness, except for TranslateGemma where the correlation is weaker and often non-significant, suggesting a tradeoff between fluency and faithfulness in literary translation and that segment length matters for automatic evaluation.

This paper introduces OP-Mix, a data mixing algorithm for the entire language model training lifecycle. It cheaply simulates candidate data mixtures by interpolating low-rank adapters trained on the current model, eliminating separate proxy models. In pretraining, OP-Mix improves average perplexity by 6.3%; in continual learning, it matches retraining and on-policy distillation while using 66% and 95% less compute, respectively.

This study examines whether improvements in Theory of Mind (ToM) for LLMs truly benefit dynamic human-AI interactions. By proposing an interactive evaluation paradigm and systematically studying four ToM enhancement techniques, it finds that gains on static benchmarks do not necessarily translate to better performance in dynamic interactions, highlighting the need for interaction-based assessments.

This arXiv cs.AI paper introduces SDOF, a framework that models multi-agent orchestration as a constrained state machine, using an online-RLHF intent router (trained via GRPO) and a state-aware dispatcher to enforce business stage constraints. Evaluated on a recruitment system (Beisen iTalent, 6000+ enterprises), the 7B model achieves 80.9% joint accuracy on an FSM-constrained benchmark (GPT-4o: 48.9%), end-to-end task completion rate of 86.5%, and blocks all 22 injection/illegal operations. Message-level blocking achieves 100% precision and 88% recall.
