Model architecture shapes the scaling behavior, training efficiency, and inference cost of LLMs, making it a central focus of both industry and academia. In industry, teams such as those behind DeepSeek, Qwen, and Kimi routinely introduce architectural innovations, yet public reports rarely document which ideas succeeded, which were abandoned, and why. In academia, limited compute and inconsistent baselines often restrict evaluations to small-scale, single-point comparisons, making it difficult to establish whether improvements hold at larger scales or translate into broader impact. ArchSpace addresses both gaps as a public platform for Recording, Reviewing, and Referencing Architecture Researc}: each proposal is recorded with its experiments and reasoning, reviewed by the community, and referenced by later work. To evaluate ideas before costly large-scale training, ArchSpace leverages scaling laws to predict model loss at larger scales from smaller experiments, a practice widely adopted in industry. We provide initial references that make the platform usable: Qwen3.5 and OLMo3 baselines, fitted scaling laws, and a reusable training recipe. Ideas validated through this review can in turn become new baselines, and ArchSpace thereby aims to broaden the range of ideas that shape the next generation of models.

Interactive video-to-video applications require real-time generation while maintaining long-range temporal consistency. However, recent methods achieve speed by restricting attention to a fixed-length causal window. This limits long-range consistency whenever relevant history falls outside the context window. To address this limitation, we introduce vid2vid-long, a correspondence-based approach grounded in a simple observation. Video-to-video translation provides an explicit cross-frame reference: the regions that match in the input video should match in the output video too. Concretely, we compute patch-level correspondences in the input, guiding retrieval of previously generated outputs in the corresponding regions, and condition the model on these patches through correspondence cross-attention. Our experiments demonstrate that vid2vid-long consistently improves long-range temporal consistency across recent video models while preserving generation quality and real-time performance.

On-device inference requires kernels that make effective use of local accelerators. Efficient training and evaluation of models that generate Apple Metal kernels benefit from native macOS tools and concurrent agent sessions. These sessions alternate between model requests, development commands, and GPU execution, leaving GPU capacity idle for much of a rollout. We present Metal Sandbox, infrastructure that combines restricted per-instance file access, native command execution, and command-level scheduling across interconnected Macs. Each agent retains its workspace and private development environment. Parallel commands can run concurrently, while serial commands share one execution slot per node; eligible waiting commands can migrate to available Macs and return results to the original agent. Integration with Harbor supports task execution, automatic verification, and rollout collection through a common workflow. Controlled experiments on four Mac mini M4 nodes achieve $1.68\times$--$2.05\times$ gains in command throughput under concentrated demand. Sixteen static agent traces give an estimated $2.14\times$ sustained-throughput gain for four sessions per node versus one, assuming continuously replenished sessions and unchanged mean durations. Replaying these measured traces under dynamic scheduling reduces mean tool waiting by 18.8% and batch elapsed time by 22.3%, assuming unchanged phase durations. Metal Sandbox and its Harbor integration are open-source on GitHub.

Reinforcement learning with verifiable rewards (RLVR) typically relies on a verifier that can reliably judge whether sampled solutions are correct. However, in many realistic settings, complete verification is generally unavailable, while cheap checks can only falsify failures. We formalize this regime as one-sided verifiability (OSV): verified negatives are reliable counterexamples, but verified positives are merely non-falsified candidates and may contain many false positives. This asymmetry makes standard RLVR unreliable, because reinforcing verified positives can directly reward shortcuts that pass partial checks. To address this issue, we propose Negative-Only Policy Optimization (NOPO), which treats verified positives as unlabeled and updates the policy only by suppressing trusted verified negatives. Specifically, NOPO combines a reference-relative negative suppression loss with a group-level adapter that scales each update by the proportion of non-falsified responses. Across unit-test, constraint-check, and LLM self-verifiers, NOPO improves pass@k over baselines on code, logic, and math benchmarks when oracle rewards are unavailable. These gains persist under inference-time scaling and cross-benchmark transfer.

This tutorial provides an accessible and implementation-oriented introduction to Gaussian process learning-based model predictive control (GP-MPC), which combines probabilistic residual modeling with receding-horizon control. Its central tutorial contribution is a detailed, step-by-step derivation of multi-step mean and covariance propagation for GP-augmented prediction models. The derivation shows how commonly used propagation formulas follow from the laws of total expectation and total covariance, and clarifies the roles of the GP posterior mean, GP posterior covariance, uncertain inputs, and query-output cross-covariances. Building on this foundation, the article distinguishes mean-only unconstrained GP predictive control from uncertainty-aware constrained GP-MPC, clarifies regulation and output-tracking formulations, and provides concise implementation and computational-complexity guidance, including practical software-tool references and discussion of the scope of closed-loop guarantees. Mobile-robot path-following examples illustrate mean-only unconstrained implementations, whereas mixed-vehicle platooning illustrates uncertainty-aware constrained GP-MPC with uncertainty-dependent safety-distance tightening. The tutorial is intended to help researchers and practitioners understand, implement, and critically evaluate GP-MPC designs for robotic and autonomous systems operating under modeling uncertainty.

Large language models (LLMs) are increasingly being used to support computer science research. To contribute reliably, these systems must be able to work with information distributed across research papers and across different aspects of the research process. However, large-scale resources that systematically organize such information into structured supervision for both model evaluation and post-training remain limited. To address this gap, we propose a systematic paper-to-QA construction pipeline that organizes information from AI research papers into structured QA pairs supported by source evidence. Using this pipeline, we construct CS-54k, a 54k-pair corpus derived from 14,474 openly licensed AI research papers. The corpus covers eight recurring paper components, including research domain, prior work, existing challenges, motivation, findings and assumptions, methods, experimental settings, and experimental results. We further derive two complementary subsets: CS-4k, a benchmark for evaluating LLMs on paper-derived research QA, and CS-50k, a companion corpus for post-training. Extensive evaluations on CS-4k reveal substantial performance differences across existing LLMs and paper components, with experimental settings and results remaining particularly challenging. Moreover, post-training on CS-50k substantially improves Qwen2.5-7B-Instruct on CS-4k, demonstrating the practical utility of structured, paper-derived supervision. Together, CS-4k and CS-50k provide a unified and scalable resource for benchmarking and improving LLMs on research paper question answering.
