Causal Scaffolding for Physical Reasoning: A Benchmark for Causally-Informed Physical World Understanding in VLMs
Tianyi Tang, Zhuoyi Lin, Zeyu Feng +4
Understanding and reasoning about the physical world is the foundation of intelligent behavior, yet state-of-the-art vision-language models (VLMs) still fail at causal physical rea…
Lifting Traces to Logic: Programmatic Skill Induction with Neuro-Symbolic Learning for Long-Horizon Agentic Tasks
Jie-Jing Shao, Haiyan Yin, Yueming Lyu +5
Foundation model-driven agents often struggle with long-horizon planning due to the transient nature of purely prompting-based reasoning. While existing skill induction methods mit…
ExpertFlow: Efficient Mixture-of-Experts Inference via Predictive Expert Caching and Token Scheduling
Xin He, Shunkang Zhang, Kaijie Tang +8
Sparse Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) models can outperform dense large language models at similar computation by activating only a small set of experts per token. However, stacking many…
Aligning LLMs with Graph Neural Solvers for Combinatorial Optimization
Shaodi Feng, Zhuoyi Lin, Yaoxin Wu +4
Recent research has demonstrated the effectiveness of large language models (LLMs) in solving combinatorial optimization problems (COPs) by representing tasks and instances in natu…
Hybrid Orchestration of Edge AI and Microservices via Graph-based Self-Imitation Learning
Chen Yang, Jin Zheng, Yang Zhuolin +4
Modern edge AI applications increasingly rely on microservice architectures that integrate both AI services and conventional microservices into complex request chains with stringen…
Bridging Synthetic and Real Routing Problems via LLM-Guided Instance Generation and Progressive Adaptation
Jianghan Zhu, Yaoxin Wu, Zhuoyi Lin +5
Recent advances in Neural Combinatorial Optimization (NCO) methods have significantly improved the capability of neural solvers to handle synthetic routing instances. Nonetheless,…
