When Steering Shifts Discourse: Identifying and Intervening on Discourse-Level Changes due to Activation Steering in LLMs

Activation steering is an inference-time technique used to control or modify the behavior, tone, or safety properties of a large language model (LLM) without retraining the model's weights or editing its input prompt, but simply by adding a vector to its residual-stream activations. However, activation steering also ch...

GRIT: Gradient Masking for Visually Misgrounded Tokens in Text-Rich Reasoning

GRIT, a training framework that incorporates visual grounding into RLVR to mitigate the impact of Correct-but-Visually-Misgrounded Reasoning (CVMR), is proposed and introduced, and experiments demonstrate that GRIT significantly improves both reasoning accuracy and grounding fidelity over existing RLVR methods.

Attention Maps Know When to Think: Training-Free Difficulty-Aware Chain-of-Thought for Reasoning Segmentation

Difficulty-Aware Chain-of-Thought (DA-CoT), a training-free adaptive framework that selectively triggers CoT based on the input's intrinsic difficulty, is proposed, finding that the entropy of the model's attention maps reliably reflects task difficulty: low entropy indicates confident, localized grounding, while high...

ORION: An Outcome-Driven LLM Advisor for RL-Based Multi-Domain 6G Slice Placement

Deploying 6G network slices across administrative domains requires an online decision for each arriving request: which domain hosts each virtual network function, how traffic crosses domain boundaries, and whether the slice is admitted. This joint decision problem is NP-hard under continuous arrivals. Experiments on a...

Sparse Text Diffusion under Dual Budgets: Context Connectivity and Expert Activation

Long-context diffusion repeatedly pays for both token interaction and feed-forward computation. We formulate these costs as two separate budgets: the edges available to an attention graph and the experts activated for each token. This view connects local, dilated, and global attention with conditional expert computatio...

From Representation to Readout: Mechanistic Analysis of Membership Signals in Language Models

Membership inference aims to determine whether a particular example was included in a model's training data. Such membership signals are often broadly described as memorization, while the underlying mechanisms can involve both how information is represented internally and how it is accessed by the model to produce beha...

BlindToChange: AI Agents Can Find Changes When Asked But Do They Look When Needed?

Given that AI agents can search the web broadly and deeply in real time, it is tempting to conclude that their outputs account for recent world events. We show that this conclusion does not hold in practice. While agents can search and easily find recent changes, the correctness of their responses depends on whether th...

SparseGDN: Chunk Sparse in Linear Attention

Gated Delta Networks (GDNs) offer linear-time sequence modeling, yet long-context prefill remains costly due to dense intra-chunk computation, recurrent-state updates, and intermediate state storage. We introduce SparseGDN, a hardware-aware framework that combines structured intra-chunk approximation with input-depende...

When Safety Checks Become Privacy Risks: A Privacy-Preserving Paradigm for LLM Agent Safety Auditing

Large language model agents interact with online services through tool calls that may access private data or perform sensitive actions. Specialized providers can supply and maintain pre-execution safety auditing capabilities for agent operators. However, sending task descriptions, call arguments, and interaction histor...
