QAM: Quadratic-Accurate Checkpoint Merging via Sequential Consistency
Shihao Wang, Rui Kong, Xinran Chen +7
Saved checkpoints record states along a training trajectory, but generally do not determine the updates at states that would be visited under a different schedule. We study how acc…
SWRouter: Similarity-Contractive Window Routing for Multi-Turn Large Language Model Conversations
Yu Wang, Yuchen Li, Rui Kong +11
Large language models exhibit complementary strengths, motivating routing methods that dispatch each query to the most suitable model. Although existing routers are effective in si…
Measuring Maximum Activations in Open Large Language Models
Luxuan Chen, Han Tian, Xinran Chen +9
The dynamic range of activations is a first-order constraint for low-bit quantization, activation scaling, and stable LLM inference. Prior work characterized outlier features and m…
EndPrompt: Efficient Long-Context Extension via Terminal Anchoring
Han Tian, Luxuan Chen, Xinran Chen +10
Extending the context window of large language models typically requires training on sequences at the target length, incurring quadratic memory and computational costs that make lo…
FlexSpec: Frozen Drafts Meet Evolving Targets in Edge-Cloud Collaborative LLM Speculative Decoding
Yuchen Li, Rui Kong, Zhonghao Lyu +11
Deploying large language models (LLMs) in mobile and edge computing environments is constrained by limited on-device resources, scarce wireless bandwidth, and frequent model evolut…
AI Guided Accelerator For Search Experience
Jayanth Yetukuri, Mehran Elyasi, Samarth Agrawal +4
Effective query reformulation is pivotal in narrowing the gap between a user's exploratory search behavior and the identification of relevant products in e-commerce environments. W…
VPN: Visual Prompt Navigation
Shuo Feng, Zihan Wang, Yuchen Li +6
While natural language is commonly used to guide embodied agents, the inherent ambiguity and verbosity of language often hinder the effectiveness of language-guided navigation in c…
Towards AI Search Paradigm
Yuchen Li, Hengyi Cai, Rui Kong +20
In this paper, we introduce the AI Search Paradigm, a comprehensive blueprint for next-generation search systems capable of emulating human information processing and decision-maki…
