Combating Catastrophic Forgetting in Continual Domain Adaptation via Knowledge Recasting

Zijie Liu, Zhen Tan, Charles Fleming +1

Adapting language models to new domains during post-training risks degrading previously acquired capabilities, a phenomenon commonly known as catastrophic forgetting. Existing miti…

Do More Modalities Always Help? A Geometric Perspective on Missing-Modality Robustness

Songyuan Sui, Zhen Tan, Mohan Zhang +3

Missing modality remains a longstanding challenge in multimodal learning. Existing methods typically address this issue through modality recovery or adaptive strategies. However, t…

MASkills: Continual Skills Optimization for Multi-Agent LLM Systems

Huaiyuan Yao, Xiaoou Liu, Charles Fleming +2

LLM-based multi-agent systems have shown strong performance on complex tasks, yet continual improvement from interaction experience remains challenging. Existing self-reflection me…

The Blessing of Dimensionality: How Near-Orthogonality in High-Dimensional Spaces Explains Temporal Portability

Abigail Woodring, Adrian Chan, Rana Muhammad Shahroz Khan +3

Fine-tuning has been widely used to adapt large language models (LLMs) for domain-specific tasks. Parameter efficient fine-tuning (PEFT) methods such as low-rank adaptation (LoRA)…

LangMARL: Natural Language Multi-Agent Reinforcement Learning

Huaiyuan Yao, Longchao Da, Xiaoou Liu +3

Large language model (LLM) agents struggle to autonomously evolve coordination strategies in dynamic environments, largely because coarse global outcomes obscure the causal signals…

Chimera: Latency- and Performance-Aware Multi-agent Serving for Heterogeneous LLMs

Kangqi Ni, Wenyue Hua, Xiaoxiang Shi +3

Multi-agent applications often execute complex tasks as multi-stage workflows, where each stage is an LLM call whose output becomes part of context for subsequent steps. Existing L…

Farther the Shift, Sparser the Representation: Analyzing OOD Mechanisms in LLMs

Mingyu Jin, Yutong Yin, Jingcheng Niu +7

In this work, we investigate how Large Language Models (LLMs) adapt their internal representations when encountering inputs of increasing difficulty, quantified as the degree of ou…

TMS: Trajectory-Mixed Supervision for Reward-Free, On-Policy SFT

Rana Muhammad Shahroz Khan, Zijie Liu, Zhen Tan +2

Reinforcement Learning (RL) and Supervised Fine-Tuning (SFT) are the two dominant paradigms for enhancing Large Language Model (LLM) performance on downstream tasks. While RL gener…
