Decoupling Memory from Context: Structured Memory for Token-Efficient Test-Time Continual Learning

Yehya Farhat, Michael Desmond, Anastasios Kyrillidis

Large language models (LLMs) are increasingly deployed in enterprise, scientific, and medical applications, where agents must incorporate domain-specific knowledge and adapt from e…

Understanding the Subspace Stabilization of the Hessian and Gradient Covariance Matrix

Fangshuo Liao, Anastasios Kyrillidis

The phenomenon of the top subspace stabilization of the Hessian matrix is an surprising and critical aspect in study of the second-order information of neural network training. Pri…

Identity-Paired Progressive Depth Training: When Trainability Persists Beyond Expressibility

Athanasios Hadjidimoulas, Tirthak Patel, Anastasios Kyrillidis

Variational Quantum Algorithms (VQAs) are a leading paradigm for near-term quantum computing, yet their training suffers from sensitivity to circuit depth, initialization, and land…

SuperThoughts: Reasoning Tokens in Superposition

Zheyang Xiong, Shivam Garg, Max Yu +4

Long Chain-of-Thought (CoT) reasoning improves LLM problem-solving but is computationally expensive due to sequential token generation. While recent works explore reasoning in cont…

One Model, Two Roles: Emergent Specialization in a Shared Recurrent Transformer

Jucheng Shen, Barbara Su, Anastasios Kyrillidis

Can a shared-weight recurrent Transformer develop distinct internal roles without being partitioned into separate modules? We study this in Asymmetric Input Recurrence (AIR), a min…

AdaPaD: Adaptive Parallel Deflation for PEFT with Self-Correcting Rank Discovery

Barbara Su, Fangshuo Liao, Anastasios Kyrillidis

Fine-tuning large language models with LoRA requires choosing a rank r before training starts. Existing approaches either extract rank-1 components sequentially, freezing each comp…

SGD at the Edge of Stability: The Stochastic Sharpness Gap

Fangshuo Liao, Afroditi Kolomvaki, Anastasios Kyrillidis

When training neural networks with full-batch gradient descent (GD) and step size , the largest eigenvalue of the Hessian -- the sharpness -- rises to an…

Convergence Analysis of Two-Layer Neural Networks under Gaussian Input Masking

Afroditi Kolomvaki, Fangshuo Liao, Evan Dramko +2

We investigate the convergence guarantee of two-layer neural network training with Gaussian randomly masked inputs. This scenario corresponds to Gaussian dropout at the input level…

GHOST: Unmasking Phantom States in Mamba2 via Grouped Hidden-state Output-aware Selection & Truncation

Michael Menezes, Anastasios Kyrillidis

While Mamba2's expanded state dimension enhances temporal modeling, it incurs substantial inference overhead that saturates bandwidth during autoregressive generation. Standard pru…

On The Finetuning of MLIPs Through the Lens of Iterated Maps With BPTT

Evan Dramko, Yizhi Zhu, Aleksandar Krivokapic +4

Accurate structural relaxation is critical for advanced materials design. Traditional approaches built on physics-derived first-principles calculations are computationally expensiv…
