Universal YOCO for Efficient Depth Scaling

Yutao Sun, Li Dong, Tianzhu Ye +3

The rise of test-time scaling has remarkably boosted the reasoning and agentic proficiency of Large Language Models (LLMs). Yet, standard Transformers struggle to scale inference-t…

On-Policy Context Distillation for Language Models

Tianzhu Ye, Li Dong, Xun Wu +2

Context distillation enables language models to internalize in-context knowledge into their parameters. In our work, we propose On-Policy Context Distillation (OPCD), a framework t…

Black-Box On-Policy Distillation of Large Language Models

Tianzhu Ye, Li Dong, Zewen Chi +3

Black-box distillation creates student large language models (LLMs) by learning from a proprietary teacher model's text outputs alone, without access to its internal logits or para…

SeerAttention-R: Sparse Attention Adaptation for Long Reasoning

Yizhao Gao, Shuming Guo, Shijie Cao +12

We introduce SeerAttention-R, a sparse attention framework specifically tailored for the long decoding of reasoning models. Extended from SeerAttention, SeerAttention-R retains the…

Reinforcement Pre-Training

Qingxiu Dong, Li Dong, Yao Tang +4

In this work, we introduce Reinforcement Pre-Training (RPT) as a new scaling paradigm for large language models and reinforcement learning (RL). Specifically, we reframe next-token…

Rectified Sparse Attention

Yutao Sun, Tianzhu Ye, Li Dong +6

Efficient long-sequence generation is a critical challenge for Large Language Models. While recent sparse decoding methods improve efficiency, they suffer from KV cache misalignmen…
