A Combined Streaming FPGA Architecture for Client-Side CKKS Encoding and Encryption

Joseph Kurina, Bogdan Pasca, Suleyman Demirsoy +1

Homomorphic encryption allows a computing service to process encrypted data, but the client must first encode and encrypt its inputs. Sharing hardware between floating-point encodi…

Token-Level Diagnosis of Sycophancy in LLMs with Attribution-Guided Steering

Hieu Nguyen, Mahammed Kamruzzaman, Anshuman Chhabra +1

Sycophancy refers to the tendency for large language models (LLMs) to match user beliefs at the cost of factual correctness, thereby undermining model reliability. Prior work on ev…

Implicit Reasoning Steering via Concept Chaining

Xiao Ye, Sanika Chavan, Yuxi Huang +4

Large language models often appear to reason reliably, yet on many questions repeated sampling yields both correct and incorrect answers, revealing an underlying fragility in how f…

Exposing the Illusion of Erasure in Knowledge Editing for LLMs

Advik Raj Basani, Anshuman Chhabra

Knowledge Editing (KE) has emerged as a frontier for updating specific facts in LLMs without costly retraining, but its reliability and underlying mechanisms remain poorly understo…

Curvature-Weighted Capacity Allocation: A Minimum Description Length Framework for Layer-Adaptive Large Language Model Optimization

Theophilus Amaefuna, Hitesh Vaidya, Anshuman Chhabra +1

Layer-wise capacity in large language models is highly non-uniform: some layers contribute disproportionately to loss reduction, whereas others are nearly redundant. Existing layer…

Golden Layers and Where to Find Them: Improved Knowledge Editing for Large Language Models Via Layer Gradient Analysis

Shrestha Datta, Hongfu Liu, Anshuman Chhabra

Knowledge editing in Large Language Models (LLMs) aims to update the model's prediction for a specific query to a desired target while preserving its behavior on all other inputs.…
