Revise, Don't Freeze: Sampler-Matched Training for Self-Correcting Masked Diffusion Language Models

Longxuan Yu, Shaorong Zhang, Yu Fu +3

Masked diffusion language models (MDLMs) re-predict every position at each denoising step, but standard samplers commit tokens once revealed, leaving this revision capability unuse…

DSL-LLaDA: Scaling Continuous Denoising to 8B Masked Diffusion LMs

Longxuan Yu, Yunshu Wu, Yu Fu +5

Discrete Masked diffusion language models generate text by iterative parallel decoding, but few-step decoding suffers from a tradeoff between length and quality: with a fixed step…

Overton Pluralistic Reinforcement Learning for Large Language Models

Yu Fu, Seongho Son, Ilija Bogunovic

Existing alignment paradigms remain limited in capturing the pluralistic nature of human values. Overton Pluralism (OP) addresses this gap by generating responses with diverse pers…

Do Reasoning LLMs Refuse What They Infer in Long Contexts?

Yu Fu, Haz Sameen Shahgir, Huanli Gong +3

Long-context LLMs can infer objectives that are not stated explicitly. This capability is useful for reasoning over documents, code, retrieved evidence, and tool traces, but it als…

Thinking Out of Order: When Output Order Stops Reflecting Reasoning Order in Diffusion Language Models

Longxuan Yu, Yu Fu, Shaorong Zhang +4

Autoregressive (AR) language models enforce a fixed left-to-right generation order, creating a fundamental limitation when the required output structure conflicts with natural reas…

Harnessing the Unseen: The Hidden Influence of Intrinsic Knowledge in Long-Context Language Models

Yu Fu, Haz Sameen Shahgir, Hui Liu +3

Recent advances in long-context language models (LCLMs), designed to handle extremely long contexts, primarily focus on utilizing external contextual information, often leaving the…

Not All Heads Matter: A Head-Level KV Cache Compression Method with Integrated Retrieval and Reasoning

Yu Fu, Zefan Cai, Abedelkadir Asi +3

Key-Value (KV) caching is a common technique to enhance the computational efficiency of Large Language Models (LLMs), but its memory overhead grows rapidly with input length. Prior…

TRAWL: Tensor Reduced and Approximated Weights for Large Language Models

Yiran Luo, Het Patel, Yu Fu +4

Recent research has shown that pruning large-scale language models for inference is an effective approach to improving model efficiency, significantly reducing model weights with m…

Cross-Task Defense: Instruction-Tuning LLMs for Content Safety

Yu Fu, Wen Xiao, Jia Chen +4

Recent studies reveal that Large Language Models (LLMs) face challenges in balancing safety with utility, particularly when processing long texts for NLP tasks like summarization a…

Safety Alignment in NLP Tasks: Weakly Aligned Summarization as an In-Context Attack

Yu Fu, Yufei Li, Wen Xiao +2

Recent developments in balancing the usefulness and safety of Large Language Models (LLMs) have raised a critical question: Are mainstream NLP tasks adequately aligned with safety…
