Beyond Text Prompts: Visual-to-Visual Generation as A Unified Paradigm

Yaofang Liu, Kangning Cui, Meng Chu +7

Humans often specify and create through visual artifacts: typography sheets, sketches, reference images, and annotated scenes. Yet modern visual generators still ask users to seria…

DecodeShare: Tracing the Shared Subspace of LLM Decode-Time Decisions

Zishan Shao, Lixun Zhang, Kangning Cui +10

Large language models (LLMs) handle many tasks with one set of parameters, but under KV-cached inference it is unclear what task-general structure, if any, is used at decode time r…

FlashSVD v1.5: Making Low-Rank Transformers Inference Actually Fast

Wenhao Wu, Zishan Shao, Kangning Cui +5

SVD-based Low-rank compression reduces transformer parameters and nominal FLOPs, but these savings often translate poorly into real LLM serving speedups. We show that this gap is l…

SphUnc: Hyperspherical Uncertainty Decomposition and Causal Identification via Information Geometry

Rong Fu, Chunlei Meng, Jinshuo Liu +8

Reliable decision-making in complex multi-agent systems requires calibrated predictions and interpretable uncertainty. We introduce SphUnc, a unified framework combining hyperspher…

Learning Where to Embed: Noise-Aware Positional Embedding for Query Retrieval in Small-Object Detection

Yangchen Zeng, Zhenyu Yu, Dongming Jiang +5

Transformer-based detectors have advanced small-object detection, but they often remain inefficient and vulnerable to background-induced query noise, which motivates deep decoders…

StoryState: Agent-Based State Control for Consistent and Editable Storybooks

Ayushman Sarkar, Zhenyu Yu, Wei Tang +3

Large multimodal models have enabled one-click storybook generation, where users provide a short description and receive a multi-page illustrated story. However, the underlying sto…
