Reward Engine: Reward-Centric Self-Evolution for Open-Ended Tool Agents

Litong Feng, Ji Qi, Yiran Cheng, Shaowu Pan, Xinyu Zhang, Qijun Li

原文摘要

Open-ended tool agents can complete the same objective through different tool paths, and their quality depends jointly on the interaction trace, environment state, and final artifacts, so such tasks rarely admit an executable ground-truth reward. The central challenge is therefore to construct a reward from existing experience that exposes the current policy's failures while remaining stationary during optimization. We introduce Reward Engine, which, like a self-motivated student, first works out what success requires and then optimizes toward it. From the task and initial trajectories, it builds a RewardPack of testcases for required correctness and rubrics for graded quality, each executed as a check that returns a judgment with evidence. The frozen RewardPack then guides the agent to revise and select its outputs, and can also serve as a reward for reinforcement learning. On WorkBuddy Bench Office and Claw-Eval, the constructed reward largely agrees with the benchmark graders, not reversing their ordering on 82.3\% and 80.5\% of candidate pairs. Used to revise executions, it raises three-run consistency ($\mathrm{Pass}^{3}$) over Baseline from 45.0\% to 54.0\% and from 78.4\% to 83.7\%.

Not All Loops Cost the Same: Phase-Dependent Depth for Serving Looped Transformers

Zhixu Du, Yuhan Cheng, Hai "Helen" Li, Yiran Chen

原文摘要

Looped transformers scale inference-time reasoning by repeatedly reusing a shared core, increasing computation without increasing parameter count. Serving prefilling and decoding with a uniform loop budget couples their costs. We present LoopDuet, a phase-dependent depth and training-free serving approach that selects the two budgets jointly while preserving decoding depth at prefilling boundaries. Our vLLM implementation gathers tokens requiring further recurrence into compact batches, turning the selected allocation into executable savings with existing weights and attention kernels. At runtime, a queue-age controller adjusts prefilling depth to retain quality as demand changes. Experiments on the full HotpotQA dataset with one A100-80GB demonstrate two benefits of this flexibility. First, separate phase budgets improve the quality--throughput trade-off: Huginn delivers 19\% more throughput than the fastest tested uniform setting meeting the same accuracy criterion, while a higher-throughput operating point gains 6.04 EM points over uniform depth eight at 97\% of its throughput. Second, the same execution mechanism retains more quality under load: on two evaluated OLMo arrival traces, adaptive prefilling gains 0.92--1.35 EM points over the most accurate tested fixed-depth controls at the same 100\% attainment of a one-second time-to-first-token target. Together, these results establish LoopDuet as a practical way to turn flexible model computation into higher serving capacity and better quality under load.

Phantom: Temporal Caching for Diffusion Models

Yuzhe Fu, Cong Guo, Zishan Shao, Bowen Duan, Chiyue Wei, Haoxuan Shan, Ting Jiang, Hancheng Ye 等 12 位作者

原文摘要

Diffusion models have become the dominant paradigm for high-quality image generation, but their iterative inference across tens of timesteps incurs substantial computational overhead. Prior accelerators exploit temporal similarity in diffusion models via differential quantization or output sparsity, yet suffer from increased memory footprint, design complexity, and image degradation. In this work, we present Phantom, an algorithm-architecture co-designed accelerator built on temporal caching. We view temporal similarity as differential sparsity: between adjacent timesteps, only a small fraction of tokens (outliers) change significantly. Phantom recomputes only these outlier tokens and reuses the rest from a temporal cache. Phantom runs on standard systolic arrays with lightweight additions: a Phantom Engine at the global buffer that detects outliers and updates the cache as activations stream through, and a condensed pipeline that maps the resulting sparse updates onto dense systolic computation for FC, convolution, and attention layers. Evaluations on modern diffusion models show that Phantom achieves an average 4.0x speedup and 5.5x energy saving over GPUs and prior accelerators while preserving generation quality.

Query-Conditioned Evidential Keyframe Sampling for MLLM-Based Long-Form Video Understanding

Yiheng Wang, Lichen Zhu, Yueqian Lin, Yudong Liu, Jingyang Zhang, Hai "Helen" Li, Yiran Chen

原文摘要

Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) have shown strong performance on video question answering, but their application to long-form videos is constrained by limited context length and computational cost, making keyframe sampling essential. Existing approaches typically rely on semantic relevance or reinforcement learning, which either fail to capture evidential clues or suffer from inefficient combinatorial optimization. In this work, we propose an evidence-driven keyframe sampling framework motivated by an information-theoretic perspective. We consider maximizing the conditional mutual information between the selected frames and the answer given the query as an idealized objective, and use a modular singleton-gain surrogate to motivate a tractable frame-wise selection criterion. Guided by this motivation, we train a query-conditioned evidence scoring network using annotated answer-supporting segments. A contrastive objective encourages greater aggregate score mass on frames from evidence regions than on background frames, providing a practical evidence-based criterion beyond semantic similarity. Experiments on long-form video understanding benchmarks show that our method consistently outperforms prior sampling strategies under comparable frame budgets. With Qwen2.5-VL-7B under the same 32-frame budget, our method improves over uniform sampling by 10.1 points on LVBench and 4.4 points on the long-video subset of VideoMME.

BasisKV: Value Latents for Communication and Key Routing

Lixun Zhang, Zishan Shao, Kangning Cui, Yu Liang, Fan Yang, Yiran Chen

原文摘要

Long-context large language model (LLM) inference is increasingly constrained by the cost of maintaining an ever-growing KV-cache. Low-rank K/V projections provide a promising way to compress the KV-cache with minimal quality loss, but prior work has largely optimized KV-cache compression in isolation, leaving distributed inference, especially with tensor parallelism where attention computation is partitioned across multiple GPUs, largely underexplored. We make two observations: (i) tensor-parallel communication is an important cost when deploying low-rank KV-cache compression in distributed inference; and (ii) Value compression can be associated with the output projection, allowing the same low-rank Value representation to reduce both Value-cache width and tensor-parallel communication. Based on these observations, we propose BasisKV, a low-rank KV-cache compression method for communication-intensive, long-context LLM inference. BasisKV jointly optimizes the low-rank factors across per-GPU attention partitions against the complete attention output, rather than fitting each partition in isolation. The compressed Value cache is further reused to help identify which Key pages should be accessed: it predicts part of the Key information needed for routing, while a Key-specific residual stores what cannot be recovered from Value. The original Keys are then retrieved only for the selected pages to compute exact QK scores. Across multiple LLM families and system settings, BasisKV achieves a better quality--efficiency tradeoff than existing low-rank baselines, reaching up to 1.42x end-to-end speedup under 8-GPU tensor-parallel inference. Our code is available at https://github.com/alexz949/BasisKV

When No Answer Is Correct: Diagnosing Absent Answer Detection for MLLMs in Video Understanding

Yiheng Wang, Yueqian Lin, Lichen Zhu, Yudong Liu, Hai "Helen" Li, Yiran Chen

原文摘要

Multimodal large language models (MLLMs) have made substantial advancements in video understanding, yet the reliability of their responses remains underexplored. This work presents a diagnostic study of absent answer detection for MLLMs in video understanding, where the correct answer is deliberately excluded from the candidate set and a reliable model is expected to recognize that no valid option exists. We evaluate the absent answer detection behavior under three settings: multiple-choice questions augmented with a ``None of the Above'' option, open-ended generation with a detection instruction, and standard evaluation without any guidance. Across a diverse set of models and benchmarks, we find that MLLMs overwhelmingly select plausible distractors rather than detecting the absent answer. This failure is more pronounced in temporal reasoning tasks and worsens with denser frame sampling. We further explore chain-of-thought prompting as a mitigation strategy and find that while it substantially improves detection rates, performance remains unsatisfactory, suggesting that prompting-based strategies alone are insufficient to fully address this limitation. These findings expose a systematic failure in absent answer detection and highlight the need for explicit detection mechanisms in multimodal systems.

MoBiQuant: Mixture-of-Bits Quantization for Token-Adaptive Any-Precision LLM

Dongwei Wang, Jinhee Kim, Seokho Han, Denis Gudovskiy, Yohei Nakata, Tomoyuki Okuno, KhayTze Peong, Kang Eun Jeon 等 11 位作者

原文摘要

Dynamic runtime latency and memory constraints necessitate flexible large language model (LLM) deployment, where an LLM can be inferred with various quantization precisions based on available computational resources. Recent work on such any-precision quantization either relies on hardware-inefficient vector quantization or induces additional scaling factors when switching between bit-widths. Meanwhile, existing post-training quantization (PTQ) methods calibrated for a fixed low precision show poor generalizability under runtime precision change. In this work, we attribute the source of poor generalization across bit-widths to a precision-dependent outlier migration phenomenon where the distribution of PTQ-sensitive tokens changes across precisions. Motivated by this observation, we propose MoBiQuant, a novel any-precision Mixture-of-Bits quantization framework that adjusts weight precision for flexible LLM inference based on token sensitivity. Specifically, we propose a many-in-one recursive residual quantization that can iteratively reconstruct higher-precision weights at runtime and mitigates outlier migration with a token-aware router to dynamically select the optimal inference precision of each token.Extensive experiments show that MoBiQuant matches or surpasses frontier single-precision PTQ while exhibiting strong elasticity, achieving significant memory savings and throughput gains of up to $1.34\times$ over state-of-the-art any-precision methods. Our code is available at https://github.com/SimWangArizona/MoBiQuant.
