FlowBlock: Wavefront-Parallel Decoding for Self-Correcting Diffusion Language Models
Bing Tian, Haikun Liu, Xiaocheng Zhong +5
Block-wise diffusion large language models (dLLMs) decode sequentially at the block level, enabling effective KV-cache reuse across blocks but making inter-block decoding strictly…
The Clustering Strikes Back: Building Cost-Effective and High-Performance ANNS at Scale with Helmsman
Yuchen Huang, Baiteng Ma, Yiping Sun +7
RedNote (a.k.a., Xiaohongshu, a global-scale social network platform) widely adopts approximate nearest neighbor search (ANNS) to power its search, recommendation, and advertising…
LASER: An Efficient Target-Aware Segmented Attention Framework for End-to-End Long Sequence Modeling
Tianhe Lin, Ziwei Xiong, Baoyuan Ou +8
Modeling ultra-long user behavior sequences is pivotal for capturing evolving and lifelong interests in modern recommendation systems. However, deploying such models in real-time i…
Scalable Overload-Aware Graph-Based Index Construction for 10-Billion-Scale Vector Similarity Search
Yang Shi, Yiping Sun, Jiaolong Du +3
Approximate Nearest Neighbor Search (ANNS) is essential for modern data-driven applications that require efficient retrieval of top-k results from massive vector databases. Althoug…
