Seen, Said, or Forgotten? A Causal Audit of Visual KV Memory Across Dialog Turns
Hong Chen, Kang Chen, Yuxuan Fan +4
Stateful multimodal assistants encode an image once but may answer questions about it many turns later. Attention-guided visual-KV eviction assumes that evidence irrelevant now wil…
Should Missing Modalities Always Be Necessary to Repair for Multi-modal Sentiment Analysis?
Yubo Gao, Haotian Wu, Xiaoyu Xu +9
Existing methods for multimodal sentiment analysis (MSA) under missing modalities usually follow a repair-first paradigm. We revisit this assumption and ask: \emph{should every mis…
Thinking Economically: A Hierarchical Framework for Adaptive-Complexity Reasoning in LLMs
Yubo Gao, Haotian Wu, Hong Chen +8
Chain-of-Thought (CoT) has significantly enhanced LLM reasoning, yet often incurs substantial computational overhead due to "overthinking": generating excessively long rationales w…
NestedKV: Nested Memory Routing for Long-Context KV Cache Compression
Hong Chen, Xiang Liu, Yubo Gao +5
Long-context language models are limited by the memory footprint of the key-value (KV) cache. Existing training-free KV compression methods usually rank tokens by one importance si…
EffiReason-Bench: A Unified Benchmark for Evaluating and Advancing Efficient Reasoning in Large Language Models
Junquan Huang, Haotian Wu, Yubo Gao +7
Large language models (LLMs) with Chain-of-Thought (CoT) prompting achieve strong reasoning but often produce unnecessarily long explanations, increasing cost and sometimes reducin…
MOSS-ChatV: Reinforcement Learning with Process Reasoning Reward for Video Temporal Reasoning
Sicheng Tao, Jungang Li, Yibo Yan +8
Video reasoning has emerged as a critical capability for multimodal large language models (MLLMs), requiring models to move beyond static perception toward coherent understanding o…
