CORE: Coarse-to-Fine Search with Context Management for Deep Research

Hoang Tran Vuong, Ngoc Quan Pham, Hung Bui +2

Deep research agents answer complex questions through repeated search. They rely on a harness that runs their tool calls and returns evidence to their context. This creates a trade…

RankLane: Efficient MoE Prefill on Accelerators with Ranked Expert Capacities

Wentao Ni, Chihao Yu, Hong Cai +4

Mixture-of-experts (MoE) models expand model capacity by activating only a subset of experts for each token. On accelerators with static execution plans, expert capacities and plac…

How Much Can We Prune? Exploring the Performance Limits of Visual Token Pruning

Janghoon Cho, Shubhankar Borse, Reza Pourreza +4

Visual token pruning is increasingly used to reduce the memory and inference costs of vision-language models. Existing work has largely focused on designing method-specific selecto…

Graph Coarsening Enables Escaping Local Optima in Compute-Constrained Nonconvex MAX-CUT

M. Harper Langston, Pierre-David Letourneau, Dalton Jones +7

Because its binary optimization landscape contains exponentially many local optima, MAX-CUT is highly sensitive to initialization. We study Particle Polynomial Relaxation (PPR), a…

MagnifiQ: Patch-aware Text Guided Progressive Upscaling for High-Resolution Image Restoration

Mahesh Reddy, Yashesh Savani, Antoine Mercier +3

High-resolution image restoration from degraded inputs is challenging because it must preserve global structural consistency while recovering fine-grained local details, especially…

SNM-VFI: Symmetric Nonlinear Motion-Guided Generative Video Frame Interpolation

Jisoo Jeong, Hong Cai, Jamie Menjay Lin +5

We propose Symmetric Nonlinear Motion-guided Generative Video Frame Interpolation (SNM-VFI), a training-free framework for motion-controllable generative video frame interpolation…

Rethinking RAG in Long Videos: What to Retrieve and How to Use It?

Yuho Lee, Jisu Shin, Nicole Hee-Yeon Kim +5

Retrieval-augmented generation is extending beyond text to long videos, where query-relevant chunks can be represented across multiple modalities and temporal granularities. Progre…

MAPLE: Latent Multi-Agent Play for End-to-End Autonomous Driving

Rajeev Yasarla, Deepti Hegde, Hsin-Pai Cheng +9

Vision-language-action (VLA) models are effective as end-to-end motion planners, but can be brittle when evaluated in closed-loop settings due to being trained under traditional im…

A Comparative analysis of Layer-wise Representational Capacity in AR and Diffusion LLMs

Raghavv Goel, Risheek Garrepalli, Sudhanshu Agrawal +3

Autoregressive (AR) language models build representations incrementally via left-to-right prediction, while diffusion language models (dLLMs) are trained through full-sequence deno…
