Voltage-to-temperature calibration of the High Altitude THz Solar telescope acquisition system
Gedeane G. S. Kenshima, Daniel R. Sousa, Tiago Giorgetti +2
The THz range has been under-explored for solar astronomy, mainly due to technological limitations. Only recently, a few new telescopes, such as the High Altitude Terahertz Solar (…
Attention Sink in Transformers: A Survey on Utilization, Interpretation, and Mitigation
Zunhai Su, Hengyuan Zhang, Wei Wu +24
As the foundational architecture of modern machine learning, Transformers have driven remarkable progress across diverse AI domains. Despite their transformative impact, a persiste…
Quantifying and Improving the Robustness of Retrieval-Augmented Language Models Against Spurious Features in Grounding Data
Shiping Yang, Jie Wu, Wenbiao Ding +7
Robustness has become a critical attribute for the deployment of RAG systems in real-world applications. Existing research focuses on robustness to explicit noise (e.g., document s…
Locate, Steer, and Improve: A Practical Survey of Actionable Mechanistic Interpretability in Large Language Models
Hengyuan Zhang, Zhihao Zhang, Mingyang Wang +26
Mechanistic Interpretability (MI) has emerged as a vital approach to demystify the opaque decision-making of Large Language Models (LLMs). However, existing reviews primarily treat…
Find Your Optimal Teacher: Personalized Data Synthesis via Router-Guided Multi-Teacher Distillation
Hengyuan Zhang, Shiping Yang, Xiao Liang +8
Training student models on synthetic data generated by strong teacher models is a promising way to distilling the capabilities of teachers. However, recent studies show that strong…
Residual Decoding: Mitigating Hallucinations in Large Vision-Language Models via History-Aware Residual Guidance
Xinrong Chen, Xu Chu, Yingmin Qiu +8
Large Vision-Language Models (LVLMs) can reason from image-text inputs and perform well in various multimodal tasks. Despite this success, they are affected by language priors and…
