CAST: History-Adaptive Spectral Clipping for LLM Pretraining

This work introduces CAST (Clipping with Adaptive Scales and Thresholds), a history-adaptive extension of SSC that achieves lower training and mean validation losses than nine gradient-processing baselines, with the fewest relative gradient spikes.

Matched-Context Group Policy Optimization for LLM Agent Training

Training long-horizon language model agents requires assigning credit to intermediate decisions from sparse terminal feedback. Within a finite group of sibling rollouts, useful action comparisons depend on their context, evidence for both alternatives, and how that evidence enters learning. We propose Matched-Context G...

QuantMLA: Function-Aligned Dual-Path Quantization for Low-Bit MLA KV Caching

Multi-Head Latent Attention (MLA) enables expressive multi-head attention with compact caches for its content and decoupled RoPE paths, yet cache memory still scales linearly with context length and batch size. In this work, we establish a systematic model of MLA's dual-path quantization errors, characterizing their di...

DASC: Decay-Aware State Compression for Hybrid Linear-Attention Serving

Decay-Aware State Compression (DASC), which derives retention horizons from model weights, selects long-horizon state units, and packs them into a ragged state checkpoint layout to integrate efficiently with tensor-parallel inference engines.

DAMP: Decay-Aware Mixed-Precision Recurrent-State Quantization

DAMP uses both quantization-error energy and decay-based persistence to identify high-risk channels during offline calibration and stores these channels at higher precision and the remainder in INT8, the first to study post-training quantization of recurrent states in GDN and KDA based language models.
