Routing problems, like the Traveling Salesman Problem (TSP) and the Capacitated Vehicle Routing Problem (CVRP), are NP-hard and slow to solve for large instances. Diffusion-based solvers can be trained in a supervised way using sets of optimal solutions, and then quickly solve new test instances. However, for large instances, optimal solutions are hard to find, and diffusion models fail to generalize to instance sizes outside their training distribution. Here we describe ResizeCO, a label free size-generalization approach that addresses both the change in statistical properties of larger instances, and the computational challenge of solving them quickly. It uses reinforcement learning on large-scale instances to adapt a diffusion model trained on small instances. Specifically, we adapt GRPO to this problem, using route length as the training signal. ResizeCO also formulates k-opt as a tree search, solved by a beam search on the GPU. In size-generalization experiments on TSP and CVRP instances with up to 10000 nodes, ResizeCO achieves a Pareto front over route quality and time that dominates learned solvers, and also outperforms other solvers at short run times, setting a new state of the art.
GAOKAO-Bench is introduced, an intuitive benchmark that employs questions from the Chinese GAOKAO examination as test samples, including both subjective and objective questions that contribute a robust evaluation benchmark for future large language models and offers valuable insights into the advantages and limitations...

An algorithm is proposed which leverages disentangled semantic factors to generate adversarial perturbation by altering controlled semantic attributes to fool the learner towards various "adversarial" targets.

This work proposes a HALO that directly maximizes the utility of generations instead of maximizing the log-likelihood of preferences, and suggests that the best loss depends on the inductive biases most appropriate for a given setting, an oft-overlooked consideration.
This work investigates the possibilities of using LLMs in a resume screening setting via a document retrieval framework that simulates job candidate selection and finds that the MTEs are biased, significantly favoring White-associated names in 85% of cases and female-associated names in only 11.1% of cases.
This work shows that orders of magnitude enhancement in performance could be obtained by a combination of hardware improvements and tight quantum-HPC integration and introduces high-performance architectures for quantum-probabilistic computing with custom-designed accelerators to tackle today's industry-scale classical...
