TurboPairFormer: Fast and Stable Protein Folding Model Training with an Optimized Triangle Attention Kernel

Yide Ran, Chelsea Lowman, Jan Domański +6

Triangular attention is a core computation in AlphaFold3-style biomolecular models, with cubic cost in token count. Its shared pair bias adds a gradient reduction across attention…

Right Answer, Wrong Tokens: Tail-Aware Credit Calibration for RLVR

Xiuyi Lou, Zicheng Xu, Yu-Neng Chuang +4

Although reinforcement learning (RL) improves the reasoning capabilities of large language models (LLMs), GRPO-style methods can suffer from a positive-credit contamination failure…

Forget Without Compromise: Nexus Sampling for Streaming KV-Cache Eviction Under Fixed Budgets

Duc Duong, Hoang Anh Duy Le, Jianwen Xie +2

Long-context and agentic LLM workloads push the KV cache past any fixed memory budget, forcing the inference stack to permanently evict tokens at every step of a continuous-inferen…

Learning at the Right Pace: Adaptive Data Scheduling Improves LLM Reinforcement Learning

Zicheng Xu, Ruixuan Zhang, Yu-Neng Chuang +7

Large Language Models (LLMs) achieve remarkable reasoning capabilities through reinforcement learning (RL) post-training. However, existing RL post-training commonly relies on unif…

The Diminishing Returns of Early-Exit Decoding in Modern LLMs

Rui Wei, Rui Du, Hanfei Yu +4

In Large Language Model (LLM) inference, early-exit refers to stopping computation at an intermediate layer once the prediction is sufficiently confident, thereby reducing latency…

Scout Before You Attend: Sketch-and-Walk Sparse Attention for Efficient LLM Inference

Hoang Anh Duy Le, Sahil Joshi, Zeyu Yang +2

Self-attention dominates the computational and memory cost of long-context LLM inference across both prefill and decode phases. To address this challenge, we introduce Sketch&Walk…

A Replicate-and-Quantize Strategy for Plug-and-Play Load Balancing of Sparse Mixture-of-Experts LLMs

Zijie Liu, Jie Peng, Jinhao Duan +7

Sparse Mixture-of-Experts (SMoE) architectures are increasingly used to scale large language models efficiently, delivering strong accuracy under fixed compute budgets. However, SM…

Word Salad Chopper: Reasoning Models Waste A Ton Of Decoding Budget On Useless Repetitions, Self-Knowingly

Wenya Xie, Shaochen, Zhong +4

Large Reasoning Models (LRMs) are often bottlenecked by the high cost of output tokens. We show that a significant portion of these tokens are useless self-repetitions - what we ca…

Weighted Diversified Sampling for Efficient Data-Driven Single-Cell Gene-Gene Interaction Discovery

Yifan Wu, Yuntao Yang, Zirui Liu +6

Gene-gene interactions play a crucial role in the manifestation of complex human diseases. Uncovering significant gene-gene interactions is a challenging task. Here, we present an…

KV Cache Compression, But What Must We Give in Return? A Comprehensive Benchmark of Long Context Capable Approaches

Jiayi Yuan, Hongyi Liu, Shaochen Zhong +9

Long context capability is a crucial competency for large language models (LLMs) as it mitigates the human struggle to digest long-form texts. This capability enables complex task-…

Zeroth-Order Fine-Tuning of LLMs with Extreme Sparsity

Wentao Guo, Jikai Long, Yimeng Zeng +9

Zeroth-order optimization (ZO) is a memory-efficient strategy for fine-tuning Large Language Models using only forward passes. However, the application of ZO fine-tuning in memory-…

Token-wise Influential Training Data Retrieval for Large Language Models

Huawei Lin, Jikai Long, Zhaozhuo Xu +1

Given a Large Language Model (LLM) generation, how can we identify which training data led to this generation? In this paper, we proposed RapidIn, a scalable framework adapting to…
