Q-Strata is proposed, a bi-level allocator that ranks within-block assignments with a cheap proxy and allocates across blocks with a model-level objective evaluated on the assembled quantized model, achieving lower WikiText2 perplexity than uniform-bitwidth GPTQ and the state-of-the-art MoE MPQ methods MxMoE and GEMQ in the low-bit regime.
PAC, a Progress-Augmented Advantage Curriculum for multi-task RL of LLMs that combines two task-level signals: advantage-derived learnability, which measures the magnitude of the policy update a task can induce, and recent reward gains, which show whether those updates have improved task performance.

This work proposes Neural Double Q-routing, which replaces destination-indexed tables with a shared state--action value network, and achieves the lowest mean completion time among all compared methods in the six 150- and 200-OHT settings, whereas Dijkstra remains best in the three 100-OHT settings.

This survey provides a structured entry point to tensorized language models and clarifies when parameter savings can plausibly translate into memory efficiency, computational efficiency, or interpretability, and introduces a metric for the compression-realization gap between theoretical memory reduction and measured system-level speedup.

Anytime-valid methods proposed for dependent data should be accompanied by null-calibration controls and mechanism traces, and Huber-style gating of the filter's own updates cuts isolated-spike degradation by an order of magnitude with no dataset specific tuning.
Topo^2, a measurement framework that makes deep networks causally separable, measurable, and law-governed, and turns"memorization" from an ill-defined capacity into a measurable, separable, invertible topological layer.
ToxLens is introduced, a reproducible multi-task graph-learning framework for 11 toxicity endpoints spanning Ames mutagenicity, acute oral toxicity, hERG inhibition, and Tox21 nuclear-receptor and stress-response assays and reveals substantial endpoint-specific variation in set efficiency and discrimination and calibration improved with similarity to the training domain.

This work introduces credit-addressable reasoning, in which the semantic units exposed during inference also define where learning compares alternatives and assigns credit, and instantiates Code-CoT, which retains the diagram, represents visual relations as line-addressable executable code, and organizes reasoning into typed events.

We compare six self-supervised pretext tasks for infant cry analysis under a fixed budget, meaning the same compact encoder of 1.17M parameters, the same 115 hours of license-verified public pretraining audio, and the same evaluation protocol for every candidate. On cry detection the reconstructive objectives dominate, and a linear probe over a masked-spectrogram encoder reaches 0.988 AUC with subject-wise splits even though the encoder never observed a cry during pretraining. On cry-reason classification over donateacry, the de facto public benchmark for cry reasons, every encoder performs at chance (0.38 to 0.54 macro AUC over 5 classes), and neither domain adaptation on 1.8 hours of real cries nor end-to-end fine-tuning moves the result. Since a frozen HuBERT-base with 80 times more parameters shows the same pattern, the bottleneck must sit in the labels and not in model capacity. We then reproduce the 90\%+ accuracies of the donateacry literature on our own system by changing nothing but the evaluation protocol: clip-wise splits raise accuracy to 85.2% (barely above the 83.8% majority-class baseline), and applying augmentation before splitting raises it to 97.9%, matching the reported state of the art, from the same model that measures 0.49 macro AUC under subject-wise splits. Under leakage-free splits, a twentyfold augmentation of the labeled set (vocoder speaker perturbation and noise mixing, 21 hours) leaves cross-subject AUC unchanged: for this task the effective sample size is the number of infants. We release code, seeds and per-clip license manifests.
Results show that function-preserving conditional residuals add input-dependent capacity while preserving the Dense path and its optimization stability, and introduce PRIME (Plug-in Residual Input-conditioned Mixture of Experts), a Dense-anchored mixture of low-rank residual experts.

This work conducts a systematic, partially crossed evaluation of five offline RL algorithm families and 14 reward designs in 44,894 post-2018 acute ischemic stroke patients from a nationwide registry, and provides an empirically motivated six-step evaluation checklist.
It is proved that any fixed MHSA architecture that achieves exact equivariance by polynomially parameterizing unconstrained MHSA parameters inevitably leads to expressivity loss within the class of equivariant maps.
A weeklong summer workshop brought higher education faculty to campus to explore how AI and machine learning materials can be adapted for their classrooms.
Adaptive AI agents can help make BIM data more machine-readable by navigating IFC models, interpreting inconsistent information, and mapping it to defined standards. In this blog, Alok Rawat shares findings from a real-world pilot in construction workflows. The post Adaptive AI Agents in Construction Workflows appeared first on GPT-Lab.
