The Sharp Directions Are Against You: Curvature Analysis of Activation Steering
Seyedarmin Azizi, Arya Fayyazi, Parsa Razmara +3
Activation steering adds a vector to a language model's internal representations at inference time. It is a lightweight alternative to fine-tuning for behavioral control. The stand…

RankGuide: Tensor-Rank-Guided Routing and Steering for Efficient Reasoning
Jiayi Tian, Yupeng Su, Ryan Solgi +2
Large reasoning models (LRMs) enhance problem-solving capabilities by generating explicit multi-step chains of thought (CoT) reasoning; however, they incur substantial inference la…

SkipKV: Selective Skipping of KV Generation and Storage for Efficient Inference with Large Reasoning Models
Jiayi Tian, Seyedarmin Azizi, Yequan Zhao +7
Large reasoning models (LRMs) often incur significant key-value (KV) cache overhead, due to their linear growth with the verbose chain-of-thought (CoT) reasoning. This incurs both…
