The Metal kernel for ggml_tri has been updated to use a select operation instead of scaling by comparison, aligning its behavior with the CPU kernel. This change ensures that values outside the triangle are set to zero rather than becoming NaN when encountering ±inf. A new test, test_tri_special, validates this fix across all four triangle types, confirming it passes with the update but failed previously.
arXiv:2611.08500v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Graph Transformers improve long-range node-to-node communication through global or structure-aware interactions. However, improving cross-node communication does not determine how computations produced at different depths should be combined. Standard residual streams accumulate successive computations with fixed unit coefficients shared across nodes. This fixed aggregation is a residual-interface constraint: once intermediate contributions have been produced, the interface cannot explicitly reweight them by node. We hypothesize that this constraint can create a depth-wise aggregation mismatch when the relative utility of these intermediate contributions varies across nodes and structural contexts. To study this hypothesis, we formalize Graph Transformer residual computation as a causal node-wise history of graph-propagation and feed-forward network (FFN) contributions, making depth aggregation an explicit interface choice. We realize node-adaptive aggregation over this history with Attention Residuals (AttnRes) while preserving the backbone's graph-propagation and auxiliary-state machinery. Block AttnRes reduces the routing cost of long histories relative to Full AttnRes by pooling consecutive contributions. We instantiate the interface in GPS and GRIT and evaluate it on all five ECHO tasks. Both variants achieve lower mean absolute error (MAE) than their independently tuned backbones on every task, and at least one obtains the lowest mean among all compared methods in each task. Routing-only donor-swap interventions support the mismatch hypothesis, while additional ablations examine the key design choices. Together, these results support node-adaptive depth aggregation as a useful complement to cross-node communication in long-range graph reasoning.
arXiv:2611.08864v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We present the Adaptive Scheduling Pipeline (ASP), an offline rollout scheduler for multi-instance asynchronous reinforcement learning (RL) of large language models (LLMs). ASP jointly reduces three sources of rollout underutilization - padding bubbles from intra-minibatch length heterogeneity, skewness bubbles from long-tail outputs, and sorting bubbles from fluctuations in training-queue occupancy induced by length-sorted dispatch - through a single offline preprocessing pass. This enables efficient multi-instance rollout that overcomes the early scaling plateau of single-instance inference while smoothing the arrival of generated samples at the trainer. We integrate the scheduler into an asynchronous architecture that decouples rollout from training while keeping policy lag observable and bounded. Complete ASP improves end-to-end throughput by up to 3.22 times and reduces iteration time by up to 76.8% relative to MindSpeed-RL, while reducing iteration time by up to 62.5% relative to verl. Within ASP, scheduling reduces mean iteration time by 10.9%. ASP also scales more robustly with additional generation resources than these baselines and shows no visible convergence degradation in the measured bounded-lag regime. ASP has since been used in an internal telecom-domain RL post-training workflow, reducing the reported training period from more than three months to about two months and producing a domain-enhanced model for knowledge answering and tool calling.
arXiv:2611.08652v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Full autonomy has been a long-term goal in robotic surgery and a near-to-medium-term goal for prostatectomy. Due to the relatively closed structure of the procedure, its standard-of-care robotic/laparoscopic solutions, and procedure economics, prostate procedures are an optimal early target for surgical automation. Prototyping and testing of possible solutions is done in constructed laboratory phantoms, either synthetic tissues or animal phantoms. To enable measurement of perceptual and robotic motion error, phantoms undergo volumetric imaging; these images are critical to both a potential deployed automatic system, used in planning motion and treatment (cutting, ablation, suturing, etc.), as well as post-hoc assessment of system performance. Rapid iteration on these phantom models yields small, inconsistent datasets, while the current workflow for human annotation is often anatomically unreliable and prohibitively time-consuming, rendering deep learning unsuitable at reasonable scales. To address these limitations, we present an automated 3D segmentation pipeline that uses classical medical image-processing techniques to encode the known anatomy of the phantoms as explicit geometric and intensity priors, which requires no training corpus and is transferred to each new phantom revision without re-annotation. Across 57 scans spanning multiple phantom revisions, our pipeline recovers the capsule interior at 0.83 median Dice on 11 contrast-suppressed scans and detects all 32 annotated focal lesions without false positives, completing a full scan in 2-8 minutes on commodity CPU hardware versus 1-2 hours by hand.
arXiv:2611.08640v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Scaling test-time compute has proven highly effective at improving LLM reasoning. A popular method is best-of-n sampling, where a model generates many candidate solutions and one is selected. This motivates the question: how can we select the best candidate? When humans make choices, we find it more natural to compare two options than judge each in isolation. Additionally, when the options become complex, we like to judge the options one aspect at a time, such as comparing two job candidates on experience, communication, etc. In the test-time setting, candidate solutions should be judged in the same way. Here we introduce Aspect-wise Pairwise Tournaments (APT), which verifies by comparison and compares by aspect. Each matchup of a single elimination tournament is decided by a vote over multiple off-the-shelf aspect verifiers, each expressing a pairwise preference along its own aspect. Across five domains and three generator LLMs, APT improves over binary multi-aspect approval, self-consistency and reward model verification, with the largest gains on open-ended tasks. We find that both components matter; neither binary approval over the same aspects nor a generic pairwise judge at a matched budget matches APT. Because aspects are specified in natural language, APT also lets users steer selection toward properties they care about, better aligning with user preferences without needing to regenerate solutions. No component is trained, so APT transfers to new domains by simply rewriting prompts.
arXiv:2611.08755v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Vision-Language Models (VLMs) have achieved strong performance on static visual understanding benchmarks, yet their ability to act in dynamic environments remains less well understood. We introduce AtariBench, a controlled benchmark that evaluates VLMs across 20 Atari 2600 games, requiring models to make sequential decisions from high-temporal-resolution gameplay streams. By decoupling fast in-game dynamics from wall-clock inference speed, AtariBench focuses on whether models can perceive rapid visual state changes, reason over spatiotemporal dynamics, and ground actions in the current observation. Our experiments reveal substantial limitations in state-of-the-art VLMs: models often fail to infer object motion and direction, exhibit brittle sequential decision-making, and over-rely on textual interaction history despite newly appended visual feedback. We further introduce a separability analysis to identify which in-game scores provide reliable signals of model competence, and use the benchmark to study how memory design and prompting strategies affect performance. Overall, AtariBench exposes a persistent gap between passive visual perception and active decision-making, providing a lightweight and rigorous testbed for developing VLMs that can reason and act in dynamic environments.
arXiv:2611.08752v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language models have achieved remarkable performance across a wide range of tasks, yet they remain susceptible to jailbreak attacks that circumvent safety mechanisms and elicit harmful or unintended outputs. Although safety can be improved through model fine-tuning, such approaches can be computationally expensive and may degrade previously acquired capabilities through catastrophic forgetting. Recent jailbreak defenses have therefore explored targeted interventions on specific model components associated with unsafe behavior. However, existing approaches typically decouple two inherently related decisions: where to intervene and how to modify the selected components. Such sequential optimization may be suboptimal because the optimal intervention location can depend on the intervention applied there, and vice versa. In this work, we introduce AttentionSwitch, the first jailbreak defense to jointly optimize intervention sites and strengths within a frozen LLM. Specifically, AttentionSwitch learns a sparse set of attention heads together with query-conditioned multiplicative scaling factors, allowing the outputs of the selected heads to be either attenuated or amplified without altering the directions of their representations. Across popular language models and jailbreak attacks, AttentionSwitch outperforms existing defenses, with particularly strong results when training data is scarce.
arXiv:2611.08684v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Clients and proxies in front of an LLM engine retry calls that time out. After a transient overload, these retries can keep the engine from recovering even when calls arrive below its capacity. Since the engine may keep computing for clients that have left, propagating cancellation looks like the natural remedy. In this paper, we test it on vLLM with overload experiments on three open models, and with scheduler traces of one that follow each client attempt to the execution it creates in the engine. We find that with retries on, cancellation alone did not restore service in any run, and only 12-38% of the calls that arrived after the overload were delivered. The traces suggest why: retries that vLLM ran typically started prefill less than half a second before they timed out. Executions that vLLM later aborted took 79-85% of the prompt tokens it computed, and vLLM's prompt-token counter missed a third to half of all computed prompt tokens. A retry budget restored service by shedding retries but left many of the overload's calls undelivered. Request coalescing delivered every call from the overload onward, some late, unless cancellation had already aborted the running execution. Overload controls should thus be judged by the executions that retries add and the calls that clients receive.
arXiv:2611.08683v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) have been evaluated on their ability to identify emotions expressed in text and produce fluent emotional language. However, output predictions alone do not reveal how fine-grained emotion distinctions are organized internally. We study seven LLMs on GoEmotions, an English Reddit dataset annotated with 27 fine-grained emotion categories plus neutral. We compare model predictions and emotion-prompted final-token representations with the 28 GoEmotions categories and with coarser emotion-family and sentiment groupings. We find a consistent pattern of $\textit{overcompression}$ relative to the fine-grained GoEmotions taxonomy. Under the tested KMeans protocol, when we cluster their hidden representations without using emotion labels, the clearest split is into two groups that largely separate positive from negative emotion. Coarser emotion groupings are also recovered with fewer clusters than the full 28-category taxonomy. Yet linear probes retain substantial fine-grained predictive information. These results suggest that fine-grained emotion information remains accessible even though broader affective structure more strongly organizes the unsupervised geometry.
arXiv:2611.08704v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: As AI-generated content spreads into nearly every domain of human interaction, practices and discourses of AI detection, both formal and informal, have become an everyday part of how people interact with text and with each other. In this paper, we explore the real-world practices and discourses of AI identification that have emerged in response to a shifting discursive landscape where the human provenance of a text can no longer be taken for granted. We pair qualitative coding with computational analysis of lexical change, grounded in linguistic anthropological perspectives on language and communication, to investigate AI identifications among English Wikipedia editors and students. We find that these identifications draw on a diversity of evidentiary types, from discrete textual features and judgments about content to circular sense-making claims and presumptions about the author's moral character, and that they are contradictory, dynamic, and contextually dependent. In practice, what often motivates an AI identification is not the presence of any specific textual element, but pragmatic infelicity: a perceived mismatch between the elements present and those deemed appropriate within the text's particular context. Consequently, real-world identifications of AI-generated writing do not merely neutrally point out the perceived presence of "AI-like" features, but can be leveraged as a discursive resource to maintain and define sociolinguistic norms: what can be said in a given context, what is appropriate, and, ultimately, what is human. Further, the design and implementation of systems and tools that treat AI-likeness as a context-free property of text may therefore inherit, and enforce at scale, the norms of whichever contexts they were trained on.
arXiv:2611.08644v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: LLM agents do not learn from corrections across sessions. A user fixes the same mistake at the start of every conversation. Existing agent memory systems primarily handle facts, such as preferences, entities, and conversational history, rather than procedural knowledge. We present Forge Decision Context (forge_dc), a system that captures behavioral signals from human corrections and self-assessed tool-call failures, compiles them into imperative RULE directives, and injects them at the decision points where they apply. We evaluate forge_dc alongside four predecessor approaches on DC-Bench, a new benchmark of 71 scenarios across nine behavioral dimensions, built from real executed agent traces in a deterministic mocked-tool environment. forge_dc reaches 95% compliance, up from 55% with naive retrieval, while injecting approximately 10 times fewer tokens per query. Across the five-stage progression, the strongest systems represent behavioral memory as explicit directives and deliver it at the decision points where it applies. The results identify representation, activation, and placement as central design choices for persistent behavioral learning.
arXiv:2611.08494v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Capturing sheet-metal localisation physics with a trained surrogate inside a finite element (FEM) solver requires the surrogate to deliver consistent predictions irrespective of the solver's strain-increment count, which is difficult to control in non-linear explicit codes. We address this by re-implementing a trained recurrent neural network (RNN) damage criterion in Fortran and embed it as a live, increment-by-increment fracture criterion inside an Abaqus/Explicit user material subroutine (VUMAT), advancing the network state alongside the solver. Two architectures are compared: a SimpleRNN and the proposed Consistent RNN (ConsRNN), whose transition function is designed so that predictions converge as the strain path is refined rather than drifting with the increment count. Both are trained on bilinear strain paths and evaluated under varying temporal discretisations and nonlinear histories. SimpleRNN predictions drift as the increment count increases, which disqualifies it for embedding; ConsRNN converges under refinement, at a substantial fixed-resolution accuracy cost relative to SimpleRNN on multilinear paths. Deployed at structural scale, the embedded ConsRNN surrogate governs element deletion in a clamped steel plate and reaches the same peak force and peak displacement as an established two-parameter fracture criterion. This pre-peak agreement is expected by construction, since no element is deleted before the peak and the two runs therefore share an identical constitutive path; the responses diverge only on the post-peak softening branch. The results establish discretisation consistency as the decisive property for embedding recurrent surrogates in explicit FEM solvers, and report the first embedding of a customised, non-standard-transition recurrent cell at structural scale.
arXiv:2611.08549v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Nearest neighbour classifiers inherit the geometry of their distance function. Fixed distances and globally learned metrics apply the same geometry throughout the input space, although relevant feature directions may vary across regions. We propose EAML (Evolutionary Adaptive Metric Learning), a framework that learns instance-dependent positive-definite metrics through a low-dimensional parameterization. Each local metric combines an input-dependent diagonal scaling, generated by softmax interpolation between anchor points, with a global low-rank correlation component. A real-coded elitist genetic algorithm optimizes the parameters using a scalar objective combining leave-one-out prediction error, robustness, metric smoothness, and regularization. We establish positive definiteness, metric equivalence, existence of an optimal solution, and Lipschitz continuity of the metric field. We further investigate prediction stability, generalization bounds, and evolutionary convergence under explicit assumptions. Experiments on synthetic data with region-dependent feature relevance show that EAML can recover local metric variations and outperform global metrics. Evaluation on thirteen public datasets using nested 5-fold cross-validation reveals a more nuanced picture: EAML improves performance on selected datasets but does not significantly outperform global metric baselines overall. Additional experiments show that global diagonal metrics can be preferable under nuisance features and test-time noise. These findings identify the conditions under which evolutionary local metric learning is beneficial and highlight its practical limitations.
arXiv:2611.08643v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Financial institutions construct knowledge graphs (KGs) from shared SEC 10-Ks to serve risk analysis, portfolio management, and investment research, whose analytical needs differ. Extraction must adapt without fragmenting shared grounding, typing, and temporal rules. Hand-authored persona prompts and fine-tuning add cost. Weight-free prompt optimization offers an alternative, but unconstrained evolution of a monolithic prompt can rewrite shared rules alongside persona guidance, obscuring changes and complicating review. We introduce FinEvolveKG, a KG-construction harness separating reusable general and persona-policy blocks and mechanically confining GEPA, a reflective prompt optimizer, to the designated block. During persona adaptation, the approved general block remains byte-stable and every optimizer edit is localized to a separately versioned persona policy. A dual objective balances generic temporal-KG quality with persona-relevant facts, motifs, and multi-hop connectivity. We evaluate five mutation scopes on ticker-disjoint 10-K splits, with three seeds for the persona-conditioned arms (v3-v5) across three personas. On the three-seed mean, the complete two-stage block-constrained workflow (v4) improves over the frozen prompt baseline (v1) by 19.4-30.9% and over the tested unconstrained full-prompt workflow (v5) by 2.2-6.4%, leading v5 on both objective components and winning all nine paired-seed comparisons with the lowest seed variance in every persona. Without further optimization, v4 also exceeds v5 across all evaluated out-of-distribution (OOD) shifts. An SME audit supports using the generated triplets as ground truth; a blinded two-SME audit favors v4 over v5 in 70.1% of contrast-enriched judgments. These results show that mechanically attributable evolution can coexist with strong empirical performance, without attributing the gains causally to the boundary.
