Screenshots or Tools? Eliciting Tool Use and Managing Multimodal Context in Hybrid GUI-MCP Computer-Use Agents
Siqi Fan, Minghao Li, Xiaoqian Ma +6
Hybrid computer-use agents can act through screenshots or call text tools. We find that having a tool available does not settle which way the effect goes. Under one identical GUI-M…
HYPIC: Accelerating Hybrid-Attention LLM Serving with Position-Independent Caching
Yifei Liu, Juntong Wu, Yang Liu +4
In retrieval-augmented generation and agentic LLM serving, prompts are assembled from independent segments into long contexts, making the prefill stage dominate per-request cost. T…
Hint Tuning: Less Data Makes Better Reasoners
Siqi Fan, Minghao Li, Xiaoqian Ma +6
Large reasoning models achieve high accuracy through extended chain-of-thought but generate 5--8 more tokens than necessary, applying verbose reasoning uniformly regardless of prob…
Pair-In, Pair-Out: Latent Multi-Token Prediction for Efficient LLMs
Wenhui Tan, Minghao Li, Xiaoqian Ma +5
Long chain-of-thought reasoning has made autoregressive decoding the dominant inference cost of modern large language models. Existing methods target either the input side (latent…
Relax: An Asynchronous Reinforcement Learning Engine for Omni-Modal Post-Training at Scale
Liujie Zhang, Benzhe Ning, Rui Yang +8
Reinforcement learning (RL) post-training has proven effective at unlocking reasoning, self-reflection, and tool-use capabilities in large language models. As models extend to omni…
Towards Large-scale Generative Ranking
Yanhua Huang, Yuqi Chen, Xiong Cao +17
Generative recommendation has recently emerged as a promising paradigm in information retrieval. However, generative ranking systems are still understudied, particularly with respe…
