dMoE: dLLMs with Learnable Block Experts

Sicheng Feng, Zigeng Chen, Gongfan Fang, Xinyin Ma, Xinchao Wang

原文摘要

Diffusion Large Language Models (dLLMs) have recently emerged as a promising alternative to autoregressive models, offering competitive performance while naturally supporting parallel decoding. However, as dLLMs are increasingly integrated with Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) architectures to scale model capacity, a fundamental mismatch arises between block parallel decoding and token-level expert selection. Specifically, each dLLM forward pass processes multiple tokens with bidirectional dependencies, whereas conventional MoE layers route each token independently. This mismatch substantially increases the number of uniquely activated experts, making inference increasingly memory-bound. To address this, we propose dMoE, a simple yet effective block-level MoE framework. The central idea of dMoE is to aggregate token-level expert distributions within each block into a unified block-level expert distribution, which is then used to guide block expert routing in a coherent manner. In this way, dMoE substantially reduces the number of uniquely activated experts during inference without sacrificing performance, thereby mitigating the memory-bound bottleneck. Extensive experiments across a variety of benchmarks demonstrate the effectiveness of dMoE. On average, dMoE reduces the number of uniquely activated experts from 69.5 to 16.6 while retaining 99.55% of the original performance. Meanwhile, it reduces memory usage by 74.36% to 76.78% and achieves $1.36\times$ to $2.04\times$ end-to-end latency speedup. Code is available at: https://github.com/fscdc/dMoE.

Can Time Series Foundation Models Serve as Surrogates for Power Systems Dynamic Simulation?

Sandy Miguel, Bruno Paes Leao, Cheng Feng

原文摘要

High-fidelity dynamic simulation is essential for scientific and engineering applications, but its computational cost limits large-scale scenario screening. We investigate the use of pretrained time-series foundation models (TSFMs) as computationally efficient surrogates to address this limitation. In-context learning and post-training strategies, including retrieval-augmented reference sample selection and physics-informed regularization, are considered in the investigation. Results are benchmarked against a traditional AI model representative of the state-of-the-art in the domain. Experiments using an open-source TSFM and data from a simulated 9-bus power system indicate promising results. Retrieval augmentation improves in-context learning performance, and fine-tuning leads to superior results compared to the traditional AI model, especially when including physics-informed regularization. The fine-tuned TSFMs achieve lower errors and improved computational costs compared to the traditional AI model, and a 563$\times$ speedup compared to the original physics-based simulation.

TandemBench: Benchmarking Decision Models for Multi-Agent Collaboration

Baohang Li, Xiaocheng Feng, Bing Qin

原文摘要

Decision models choose among predefined options in tasks such as routing and action selection. In multi-agent collaboration, a decision determines how members divide work, exchange resources, and act in parallel. We introduce TandemBench, a benchmark of 1,200 questions in multi-agent cooking scenarios where coordination choices affect goal completion. Models receive complete global information and candidate team plans, with reference answers established through execution and exact search. Models select an optimal team plan and, in paired variants that retain or remove it, judge whether better arrangements exist beyond the supplied options. We evaluate 40 native decision models and compare them with 10 general-purpose language models. The best native decision model achieves 62.50% decision accuracy. Native decision models remain close to chance in optimality verification. Paired tests reveal that some report better alternatives regardless of whether an optimal plan is already present. These findings show that team-plan decision accuracy alone can conceal systematic errors in judging whether the supplied options contain an optimal arrangement. The dataset and evaluation code are publicly available at https://github.com/lililibaohang/TandemBench.

EvoGroup: A Self-Evolving Harness for Group Agents in Shared Contexts

Xinyi Xu, Xiaoyang Li, Yucheng Feng, Wenqing Chen, Youliang Yuan, Wei Shi, Rongxiang Weng, Zibin Zheng

原文摘要

With the rise of Group Agent such as Claude Tag, agents increasingly serve as digital workers for long-term team collaboration. These agents operate over shared contexts that continuously accumulate through multi-user interactions. However, existing agent memory systems are mainly designed for individual users and struggle to capture group-level knowledge in shared contexts, including group relationships and collaboratively formed knowledge. Manual memory strategies further limit adaptation to diverse and evolving shared contexts. To this end, we propose \textbf{EvoGroup (EvoG)}, a self-evolving harness for group agents that starts from a minimal six-tool cold start and adapts through interaction with shared context. EvoG uses confidence and task outcomes to select informative trajectories, while also eliciting self-reflections on uncertainty in low-confidence cases. The analysis agent then examines selected trajectories through adaptive progressive disclosure, followed by bucketed analysis to synthesize high-level findings that guide the evolve agent in revising the Harness. Empirically, pass@1 on held-out split of EverMemBench improves from 71.07\% to 89.58\%, surpassing both self-evolving memory and human-designed harnesses, including Claude Code (85.83\%). To evaluate generalization, we freeze the evolved harness and evaluate it on the unseen GroupMemBench, where, with GPT-5.5, it demonstrates effective generalization and outperforms both memory baselines and human-designed harnesses.

Variable names provide priors: semantic grounding enables data-efficient numerical prediction by large language models

Xin-Rui Ma, Shi-Zhi Chen, Hai-Yan Jiang, De-Cheng Feng, Michael Beer

原文摘要

Large language models (LLMs) have achieved strong performance across diverse tasks, from question answering to code generation. Recent studies have found that LLMs can perform numerical prediction on tabular datasets via in-context learning. However, it remains unclear under what conditions and how LLMs use variable names and in-context examples for numerical prediction. Here we show that semantic grounding, the match between variable names and the values they describe, allows five LLMs without task-specific training to match or outperform seven supervised machine learning (ML) models across 20 datasets from nine scientific domains, particularly when examples are scarce. Reasoning traces indicate that variable names allow LLMs to draw on domain-specific knowledge acquired during pretraining. Using controlled tasks based on physical formulas, we further show that LLMs integrate domain-specific knowledge with in-context examples in a way consistent with Bayesian updating. Specifically, when the relationship between the inputs and the target cannot be inferred from the examples alone, LLMs rely on domain-specific knowledge as the prior. Conversely, as contradicting examples accumulate, LLM predictions shift progressively towards these examples, which act as the likelihood. Our work reveals how LLMs use domain-specific knowledge in numerical prediction and positions them as data-efficient predictors for data-scarce scientific domains.

Encode Once, Answer Many: Internalizing Context via Parametric Flow

Xinhao Zhong, Mengxuan Wu, Chonghua Liao, Linxi Xie, Ruicheng Feng, Kangqiao Xu, Yanpei Guo, Hao Tan 等 26 位作者

原文摘要

Large language models are typically adapted to a task either by placing knowledge in the input context, which keeps it external and re-encodes it on every call, or by fine-tuning, which internalizes it but demands a costly round of optimization per task. We aim to internalize the knowledge carried by a context directly into model parameters, without per-task optimization and without keeping the context in the input at inference time. To this end, we propose CLIK, a context-conditioned parameter generator that maps a given context to LoRA parameters for internalizing knowledge in a single forward pass through a Transformer encoder with cross-attention, requiring no test-time gradient updates. Once the generated LoRA is inserted into a frozen base model, the model answers downstream queries from the query alone, having internalized the context into its weights rather than re-reading it. Because the adapter depends only on the context, it is generated once and reused for every query on the same document, so the cost of reading that document is amortized across queries. On document question answering, CLIK substantially improves over the no-context base model and outperforms existing hypernetwork-based generators, while remaining behind a base model that reads the context directly, and it carries over to multi-turn dialogue without any multi-turn-specific training. Analysis further shows that the context-dependent part of the generated adapter concentrates in a compact and specific substructure.

Unlocking Multilingual Reasoning Capability of LLMs and LVLMs through Representation Engineering

Qiming Li, Xiaocheng Feng, Yixuan Ma Harbin Institute of Technology, Ruihan Chen, Zihe Tong Harbin Institute of Technology, Zekai Ye Harbin Institute of Technology, Xiachong Feng University of Hong Kong, Libo Qin Central South University 等 13 位作者

原文摘要

Large Language Models (LLMs) and Large Vision-Language Models (LVLMs) demonstrate strong reasoning capabilities, yet their performance in English significantly outperforms that in low-resource languages, raising fairness concerns in multilingual applications. Existing approaches either rely on costly multilingual training or employ prompting with external translation tools, both of which are resource-intensive and sensitive to translation quality. To address these limitations, we propose a training-free inference-time method to enhance Multilingual Reasoning capabilities via Representation Engineering (MRRE) without using any additional training data or tools. MRRE sequentially injects two precomputed vectors at specific layers during inference processing: cross-lingual reasoning enhancement vectors, which steer non-English reasoning representations toward English space to unlock multilingual reasoning, and target-language output anchoring vectors, which restore the distribution of the target language to preserve input–output language consistency. Comprehensive experiments across six advanced LLMs and LVLMs on four reasoning benchmarks demonstrate that MRRE consistently enhances non-English reasoning by an average gain of 5.48% and up to 7.54% in low-resource languages (e.g., Thai and Swahili), while improving input-output language consistency by 3.78%.

Question Tells You Where the Answer Is: Intention-aware Long-Context KV Cache Compression

Liang Zhao, Xiaocheng Feng, Weihong Zhong Harbin Institute of Technology, Lei Huang, Kun Zhu, Baoxin Wang IFLYTEK CO.LTD., Dayong Wu, Guoping Hu IFLYTEK CO.LTD. 等 10 位作者

原文摘要

The increasing context window greatly extends the capabilities of large language models, but on the other hand, it incurs an unaffordable memory overhead and computational latency due to the increasing Key-Value (KV) cache size. Recent KV cache compression methods manage to reduce the cache size by dropping irrelevant KVs. However, these methods often fail to identify crucial KVs for generation while excluding others accurately, resulting in severe information loss. To address this gap, we propose IntentKV, an intention-aware KV cache eviction method that identifies and retains crucial KVs according to the attention distribution of intention, which semantically reflects the user’s goal and determines which part of the context is relevant. The consistency between the semantics and attention distribution is further substantiated through meticulously designed experiments. On this basis, IntentKV first distinguishes intention tokens from the vanilla context tokens based on their attention distribution distances. Then, the block-wise cumulative attention is calculated via aggregating the intention token attention. Finally, blocks that acquire high cumulative attention are picked and stored in KV cache. We evaluate our method across diverse long-context tasks and models. Results demonstrate that IntentKV can effectively maintain the model performance while reducing the KV cache size from 128K to 2K, leading to a 6.3x increase in decoding speed and 7.8x enhancement in memory efficiency compared to the default setting.

ImplicitMemBench: Measuring Unconscious Behavioral Adaptation in Large Language Models

Chonghan Qin, Xiachong Feng University of Hong Kong, Weitao Ma Harbin Institute of Technology, Xiaocheng Feng, Lingpeng Kong Department of Computer Science, The University of Hong Kong

原文摘要

Existing memory benchmarks for LLM agents evaluate explicit recall of facts, yet overlook implicit memory where experience becomes automated behavior without conscious retrieval. This gap is critical: effective assistants must automatically apply learned procedures or avoid failed actions without explicit reminders. We introduce ImplicitMemBench, the first systematic benchmark evaluating implicit memory through three cognitively grounded constructs drawn from standard cognitive-science accounts of non-declarative memory: Procedural Memory (one-shot skill acquisition after interference), Priming (theme-driven bias via paired experimental/control instances), and Classical Conditioning (Conditioned Stimulus–Unconditioned Stimulus (CS–US) associations shaping first decisions). Our 300-item suite employs a unified Learning/Priming-Interfere-Test protocol with first-attempt scoring. Evaluation of 17 models reveals severe limitations: no model exceeds 66% overall, with top performers DeepSeek-R1 (65.3%), Qwen3-32B (64.1%), and GPT-5 (63.0%) far below human baselines. Analysis uncovers dramatic asymmetries (inhibition 17.6% vs. preference 75.0%) and universal bottlenecks requiring architectural innovations beyond parameter scaling. ImplicitMemBench reframes evaluation from “what agents recall” to “what they automatically enact”.

Culture-Aware Machine Translation in Large Language Models: Benchmarking and Investigation

Zekun Yuan Harbin Institute of Technology, Yangfan Ye Harbin Institute of Technology, Xiaocheng Feng, Baohang Li Harbin Institute of Technology, Qichen Hong, Yunfei Lu Huawei Technologies Ltd., Dandan Tu, Bing Qin Harbin Institute of Technology

原文摘要

Large language models (LLMs) have achieved strong performance in general machine translation, yet their ability in culture-aware scenarios remains poorly understood. To bridge this gap, we introduce CanMT, a Culture-Aware Novel-Driven Parallel Dataset for Machine Translation, together with a theoretically grounded, multi-dimensional evaluation frame work for assessing cultural translation quality. Leveraging CanMT, we systematically evaluate a wide range of LLMs and translation systems under different translation strategy constraints. Our findings reveal substantial performance disparities across models and demonstrate that translation strategies exert a systematic influence on model behavior. Further analysis shows that translation difficulty varies across types of culture-specific items, and that a persistent gap remains between models’recognition of culture-specific knowledge and their ability to correctly operationalize it in translation outputs. In addition, incorporating reference translations is shown to substantially improve evaluation reliability in LLM-as-a-judge, underscoring their essential role in assessing culture-aware translation quality. The corpus and code are available at CanMT.

MPR-GUI: Benchmarking and Enhancing Multilingual Perception and Reasoning in GUI Agents

原文摘要

Large Vision–Language Models (LVLMs) have shown strong potential as multilingual Graphical User Interface (GUI) agents, as evidenced by existing GUI benchmarks. However, these benchmarks exhibit two primary limitations: (1) although Perception and Reasoning (P R) capabilities are fundamental for GUI agents, current benchmarks lack fine-grained diagnostics to identify which specific capabilities lead to task failures, hindering targeted improvements; (2) existing benchmarks fail to provide a strictly aligned cross-lingual evaluation environment, introducing confounding factors that prevent isolating the language impact on GUI agent performance. To address these issues, we propose the Multilingual P R GUI Benchmark (MPR-GUI-Bench), featuring strictly aligned environments across six languages and eight fine-grained P R tasks. Our benchmark reveals consistent P R gaps between English and non-English settings, particularly on reasoning-intensive tasks. To leverage the superior English P R capabilities for bridging cross-lingual gaps, we identify layers sensitive to language and propose GUI-XLI, a GUI Cross-Lingual Intervention method that aligns non-English hidden states with their English counterparts at these layers during inference. Experiments show that GUI-XLI effectively reduces the cross-lingual gaps, with an average gain of 6.5% in non-English settings.

Stratagem: Learning Transferable Reasoning via Trajectory-Modulated Game Self-Play

Xiachong Feng University of Hong Kong, Deyi Yin, Xiaocheng Feng, Yi Jiang, Libo Qin Central South University, Yangfan Ye Harbin Institute of Technology, Lei Huang, Weitao Ma Harbin Institute of Technology 等 12 位作者

原文摘要

Games offer a compelling paradigm for developing general reasoning capabilities in language models, as they naturally demand strategic planning, probabilistic inference, and adaptive decision-making. However, existing self-play approaches rely solely on terminal game outcomes, providing no mechanism to distinguish transferable reasoning patterns from game-specific heuristics. We present STRATAGEM, which addresses two fundamental barriers to reasoning transfer: domain specificity, where learned patterns remain anchored in game semantics, and contextual stasis, where static game contexts fail to cultivate progressive reasoning. STRATAGEM selectively reinforces trajectories exhibiting abstract, domain-agnostic reasoning through a Reasoning Transferability Coefficient, while incentivizing adaptive reasoning development via a Reasoning Evolution Reward. Experiments across mathematical reasoning, general reasoning, and code generation benchmarks demonstrate substantial improvements, with particularly strong gains on competition-level mathematics where multi-step reasoning is critical. Ablation studies and human evaluation confirm that both components contribute to transferable reasoning.

Fine-Mem: Fine-Grained Feedback Alignment for Long-Horizon Memory Management

Weitao Ma Harbin Institute of Technology, Xiaocheng Feng, Lei Huang, Xiachong Feng University of Hong Kong, Zhanyu Ma, Jun Xu Meituan, Jiuchong Gao, Jinghua Hao 等 10 位作者

原文摘要

Effective memory management is essential for large language model agents to navigate long-horizon tasks. Recent research has explored using Reinforcement Learning to develop specialized memory manager agents. However, existing approaches rely on final task performance as the primary reward, which results in severe reward sparsity and ineffective credit assignment, providing insufficient guidance for individual memory operations. To this end, we propose Fine-Mem, a unified framework designed for fine-grained feedback alignment. First, we introduce a Chunk-level Step Reward to provide immediate step-level supervision via auxiliary chunk-specific question answering tasks. Second, we devise Evidence-Anchored Reward Attribution to redistribute global rewards by anchoring credit to key memory operations, based on the specific memory items utilized as evidence in reasoning. Together, these components enable stable policy optimization and align local memory operations with the long-term utility of memory. Experiments on Memalpha and MemoryAgentBench demonstrate that Fine-Mem consistently outperforms strong baselines, achieving superior success rates across various sub-tasks. Further analysis reveals its adaptability and strong generalization capabilities across diverse model configurations and backbones
