Long-form thinking traces can substantially improve the multi-step reasoning performance of large language models (LLMs), but they introduce high inference-time overhead, with latency dominated by sequential decoding. We propose HyperThink, a text-to-parameter approach that amortizes this reasoning computation into a single query-conditioned parameter update: a lightweight hypernetwork reads the question and predicts updates to a small subset of the base LLM's parameters, while a vector-quantized decoder constrains them to a finite set of reusable patterns to improve robustness and transfer. Trained end-to-end on outputs from the base model itself, HyperThink eliminates long thinking traces at test time: after one hypernetwork forward pass, the adapted model generates a concise step-by-step solution and final answer without an intermediate trace, using far fewer tokens while retaining strong reasoning performance. Empirically, HyperThink improves the low-latency region of the accuracy-latency trade-off on mathematical and general reasoning tasks, with its strongest gains in the near-non-thinking regime.

原文摘要
Reliable box manipulation requires successful placement without damage, which depends on maintaining sufficient contact force without excessive loading. We hypothesize that per-finger force feedback improves manipulation reliability relative to open-loop finger commands. To this end, we present Finger External-Force Estimation from Proprioceptive SignaLs (FEEL), an uncertainty-aware residual method that estimates per-finger external force magnitude from proprioceptive histories. Our method combines a calibrated virtual-spring estimate with a residual distribution predicted by a Mixture Density Network (MDN) and requires no dedicated contact sensors during deployment. The estimated force is used for continuous per-finger adaptation, while predictive uncertainty is evaluated as an empirical signal of ambiguity in proprioceptive force estimation. Across ten fingers and contact forces spanning 0-20 N, our method achieves a mean RMSE of 0.251 N, reducing the error by 92.8% relative to the virtual spring and by 9.4% relative to an end-to-end MDN. In box pick-and-place, force adaptation maintains task success at 10/10 and increases both damage-free outcomes and reliability from 7/10 to 10/10.
