How I Aligned Your Model: Scaling Up Multilingual Safety Training with Templates

Safety alignment for Large Language Models is heavily focused on English with limited multilingual representation, particularly damaging low-resource language performance. Related open training datasets are often limited in size or do not follow region-localized harmful topics to broaden the scope of alignment beyond c...

Fast and accurate neural triage decoding of ultra-high-rate quantum LDPC codes

Quantum error correction is essential for fault-tolerant quantum computing. High-rate quantum low-density parity-check (qLDPC) codes have emerged as a promising approach to reducing the substantial physical qubit overhead of quantum error correction, enabling encoding rates exceeding $1/2$ in blocks of approximately on...

NECA: Neighbor Event Curve Augmentation for Multi-Horizon ICU Deterioration Prediction

Early prediction of ICU organ dysfunction events supports timely clinical monitoring and intervention, but estimating short-term organ-specific risk from early ICU records remains challenging due to irregular measurements, heterogeneous clinical variables, and the need to predict risk across multiple future horizons. E...

IMPACT: Inverter-Informed Multimodal Learning for Photovoltaic Generation Forecasting

This work develops a physics-informed multimodal deep learning framework for 10- to 110-minute-ahead probabilistic photovoltaic power forecasting. The forecasting model is built on a four-branch architecture that separately encodes plant-level temporal history and inverter-level spatial cloud dynamics through a graph a...

SCARL: Sequence Confidence-Aligned Reinforcement Learning

Reinforcement learning with verifiable rewards (RLVR) improves language-model reasoning by scoring sampled responses with a rule-based verifier and reinforcing those that pass. Where a classifier's training couples predicted probability to labels, nothing ties an RLVR policy's confidence in a response to its reward: al...

A Unified Hessian-Guided Framework for Post-Training Quantization

Low-bit quantization enables efficient deployment of large language models by reducing memory footprint and computational cost. Achieving high accuracy at low precision requires selecting quantization ranges, linear transformations, and weight rounding decisions. Existing approaches typically optimize these components...

How to Loop Your Transformer: Loop Scaling, Specialization, and Parallel Inference

The results show that effective looping requires matching the design to the resource constraint and inference setting, and that preserving the current-token embedding and separately normalizing it and the previous-token hidden state before combining them recovers strong performance across model scales and training budg...

Only Accepted Tokens Count: An Energy Accounting of Speculative Decoding Under Latency Targets

Large language model serving is limited by facility power. Energy per token determines how many tokens a datacenter can serve, while a latency target bounds how quickly each user receives them. During decode, every weight is read from memory for every generated token. Batching amortizes this read across users but makes...

Learned Terminal Costs for Short-Horizon Model Predictive Control of Autonomous Trucks in Interactive Highway Traffic

This paper proposes a hybrid MPC and RL framework for highway driving in autonomous trucks, where a finite-horizon MPC, solved via dynamic programming, uses a pre-trained RL model for terminal cost estimation.

Understanding axial attention in TSFMs through single location regression

Recent advances in Time Series Foundation Models (TSFMs) increasingly rely on axial attention mechanisms, but despite their empirical success, the theoretical properties of axial attention remain largely unexplored. To bridge this gap, we extend the Single Location Regression framework introduced in Marion et al. [2025...

FARE: Factor-Aware Retrieval with Error-Guided Fusion for Retail Forecasting

Retail sales forecasting underpins inventory planning, yet promotions and calendar events reshape short-term demand. Although each factor usually has historical occurrences, the complete factor combination of a target week often has few precedents. The challenge is therefore to retrieve informative partial matches and...

Escaping Path Mirages in Offline Goal-Conditioned Reinforcement Learning

Offline goal-conditioned reinforcement learning remains challenging in stochastic long-horizon settings, where compounding value estimation errors hinder reliable goal reaching. While prior methods have sought to address this challenge through various approaches, a key challenge remains path mirage, where agents overco...
