The Dharma Field Extractor, a 2-billion-parameter model, specializes in extracting specific fields from diverse document types—such as invoices, IDs, and medical forms—into structured JSON format. It outperforms general-purpose frontier LLMs in accuracy and reduces cost by up to 147 times when self-hosted, demonstrating that domain-specialized small models can surpass large general-purpose models on well-defined tasks. The model supports both open extraction (detecting fields without a schema) and schema-directed extraction (returning exact field names and types), with training data spanning English, Brazilian Portuguese, and multilingual documents. Benchmarks show superior F1 scores and valid JSON output across real-world datasets like SROIE and FUNSD, reinforcing the thesis that specialization beats scale for enterprise document processing.
arXiv:2611.03952v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: A substantial line of work builds rotation invariance directly into point cloud architectures. We benchmark 10 architectures (PointNet, PointNet++, DGCNN, RIConv, RIConv++, RISurConv, PointMLP, PointTransformer, and the equivariant VN-PointNet and VN-DGCNN) across 5 domains under pose, noise, and occlusion, and analyze the results with confirmatory hypothesis tests rather than point estimates. The three rotation-invariant (RI) architectures achieve the best pose robustness but rank among the lowest on noise robustness in 4 of 5 domains. We ask whether this cost is intrinsic to invariance or specific to how invariance is obtained. We retrain all 10 architectures unchanged, with a simple invariance loss on the embedding and three training seeds each, and evaluate all models on the independently designed ModelNet40-C. Invariance training transfers narrowly but reliably. It improves exactly the corruption families its perturbations target wherever the baseline has headroom (mean occlusion +10.5, lidar +13.4 percentage points of accuracy). At matched training budget the best standard backbone and the best RI architecture end on par on unseen corruptions (within 2.5 percentage points in every seed), and invariance-trained RIConv++ is the most seed-stable top model. Once rotation augmentation is widened, standard backbones concede only a flat, angle-independent accuracy offset under full-sphere rotation. We release the benchmark along with a package for analyzing point cloud robustness and reproducing our results.
arXiv:2611.03724v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: In receiver-directed federated learning, each site draws a trust boundary. For every source and model component it judges, on its own data, whether the transfer helps (admit), harms (reject) or cannot yet be told (abstain). We ask whether this boundary holds over hundreds of rounds. Our benchmark has a federation of thirteen semi-synthetic sites, an exact oracle for every evaluated transfer, paired seeds, an attack protocol, fourteen methods over 600 rounds and Qwen3-1.7B LoRA sites over 500. The answer depends on which boundary is measured. Across 20 paired CPU seeds, a gate judging against a fixed reference better identified transfers useful relative to the site's starting model. Yet it admitted 29% of transfers harmful to the model the site now has. A gate judging against the current model admitted 2% of harmful transfers on that target in the CPU tier, but missed many transfers useful to the starting model. Two short propositions explain these distinct failures. We also evaluate a held out audit that leaves gate verdicts intact. After training, it decides whether each final model is deployed or the site falls back to local training, and reports admissions that have gone stale. With independent audit data its guarantees hold after any training history. At 600 rounds the audit deployed 65 to 72% of models, none with negative benefit on its target, and kept 98% of the gain. No stale report had the wrong sign in our runs. With 20,000 audit observations, a variance-adaptive bound found 99% of stale transfers that cost at least 0.01 in log loss. A common-target Qwen3 comparison on 60 selected transfers shows the same tension over 100 rounds. With 38% adversarial sites, FedFomo and CS-Gate were the only evaluated methods with positive mean gain in every honest group.
arXiv:2611.03723v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Deep Research (DR) systems extend large language models into autonomous agents that decompose complex information needs, iteratively search the web, and synthesize evidence to answer challenging questions. However, their multi-stage execution may introduce robustness risks, as variations in user questions or intermediate search inputs may propagate across research stages and lead to incorrect answers. Existing evaluations focus on task-solving capabilities or robustness against external evidence disturbances, leaving intrinsic weaknesses in DR execution insufficiently explored. Thus, we conduct an empirical study of 1,932 execution trajectories from three representative DR systems and identify nine recurring defect categories across subquestion formulation, online search, and final reasoning. Guided by these findings, we propose EMBERS, an empirically motivated, defect-guided fuzzing framework for robustness testing of DR systems. Starting from correctly answered seed questions, EMBERS generates stage-targeted test inputs using defect-guided mutation, web-search-assisted fidelity assurance, and diversity-aware seed maintenance. Experiments across 16 framework--model--dataset settings show that EMBERS achieves 3.21 times the failure-discovery throughput of the strongest baseline under identical testing budgets. Human and LLM-assisted evaluations demonstrate that most generated inputs preserve the original information need and necessary contextual constraints. Moreover, model fine-tuning experiments show consistent-answer performance improvement, highlighting their value for robustness testing and model improvement.

arXiv:2611.04401v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Context parallelism (CP) partitions long sequences across GPUs for LLM training and inference. For variable-length training and full prefill, attention-balanced placement can leave token loads uneven, while ring execution repeats overhead at each computation and communication step. In stage-serialized decode CP (DCP), long-running tasks delay dependent work and leave substantial GPU hardware idle. We propose LiquidCP, which unifies training and inference through a common model of Transfer, Compute, and Reduction tasks with tile-level dependencies, decoupling attention tasks from communication and kernel boundaries. For training and full prefill, MegaRing incorporates BuddyRing placement to balance attention and token loads, and coalesces ready KV regions during forward attention to amortize overhead. For decoding and mixed batches, MegaDCP selects history-KV splits by jointly modeling the completion of attention and its dependent reductions. A shared persistent GPU-resident engine executes both designs. Compared with the fastest baseline per configuration on eight H100 GPUs, MegaRing achieves geometric-mean core-attention speedups of $1.23\times$ forward and $1.18\times$ backward, and accelerates a Transformer layer by $1.08$--$1.16\times$. MegaDCP achieves geometric-mean core-attention speedups of $1.20\times$ for decode-only and $1.35\times$ for mixed batches. In vLLM serving with KV prefix cache, it achieves an average time-to-first-token speedup of $1.22\times$.
arXiv:2611.03734v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Training a classifier means letting a validation metric decide which model is kept and when training stops. A natural requirement on that metric is superiority: every correctly classified forecast should score better than every incorrectly classified one, however close the underlying probabilities are. Neither the Brier score nor the logarithmic score satisfies this on its own. We show that superiority is governed by the separation between two endpoints -- the supremum of the score on correct predictions and the infimum on incorrect predictions -- and derive both in closed form for each score. Their difference is the infimal penalty, the greatest lower bound on the penalty needed to restore superiority. Prior work restores superiority with a penalty calibrated from the first endpoint alone; for the Brier base, our infimal penalty is smaller than that published penalty by a factor ranging from 4.00 at three classes to 2.11 at twenty. We further embed the published and infimal penalties in a one-parameter family and show that, under a single-valued tie convention, every member of the family is strictly proper. In a pre-specified two-dataset case study, mean selected-model macro-F1 rises with the penalty in the reported ten-class regimes, though not distinguishably from noise once seed/selection-mode nesting is accounted for; a fifth regime at forty-seven classes does not reproduce even this descriptive pattern. The intended no-superiority baseline is algebraically a rescaling of the family under test, so the experiment cannot attribute the observed pattern specifically to superiority. When superiority itself is the objective, any penalty strictly above the infimal value suffices; choosing a larger penalty is a separate calibration trade-off rather than a requirement for the guarantee.
arXiv:2611.04425v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: In edge computing, tasks must be placed on servers of finite capacity before workloads are realized, often with only workload means and variances known. An assignment balanced on expected load can still leave a server with more fluctuations than its residual capacity can absorb. Per-server risk constraints can enforce a prescribed overload tolerance but do not distinguish the assignments that meet it by how close the riskiest server comes to the limit. We show that, for independent tasks, placement preserves a period's total variance and total residual capacity, and decides only how fluctuation, measured by standard deviation, is paired with residual capacity across servers. The risk ratio, the ratio of fluctuation to residual capacity, parameterizes a server's worst-case overload probability over all aggregate workload distributions with given mean and variance. We minimize the largest risk ratio, attained at the risk bottleneck. Risk-Bottleneck Placement (RBP) places tasks in descending order of standard deviation, each on the server with the smallest post-assignment risk ratio, and refines the assignment with relocations and swaps within a finite per-period online budget. On small instances solved exactly by enumerating every assignment, minimizing the maximum expected utilization leaves the largest risk ratio 25.66-29.19% above its exact minimum on average, even with risk-minimizing tie-breaking, and the corresponding gap for RBP is 1.77-2.64%. In trace-derived multi-period simulations at two workload pressures, RBP reduces the worst-server overload probability by 26.0% and 18.0% relative to the best baseline and remains the lowest at every tested pressure and scale.
