This research reveals that grokking—the abrupt delayed onset of generalization—is consistent with hysteresis in first-order L2 phase transitions in linear deep neural networks. Models trapped in low-accuracy metastable states escape only when SGD noise provides enough energy to cross barriers, with escape times following Arrhenius scaling. The number of metastable states equals the number of learnable features, offering insights for more efficient learning.

Mixture-of-Experts Multimodal Large Language Models (MoE-MLLMs) offer remarkable performance but incur high GPU memory costs, making compression essential. Existing expert-level mixed-precision quantization degrades on MoE-MLLMs due to two biases: vision tokens dominate cross-modal expert selection, and redundant tokens skew intra-vision frequency. MODE addresses this by decomposing selection frequency by modality, filtering redundant tokens, and evaluating per-modality quantization sensitivity, using integer linear programming to assign bit-widths per expert. At W3A16, average performance loss is limited to 2.9%.

This study systematically evaluates foundation model (FM) representations for computational pathology tasks using two real-world commercial cohorts, IH-BC and IH-NSCLC. Findings show that image and omics representations carry complementary predictive signals, and multimodal fusion yields gains primarily when no single modality dominates. Conformal prediction reveals that in most cases where point predictions fail, the true diagnosis remains recoverable, emphasizing the value of uncertainty-aware inference for clinical support.

Distinguishing causal adverse drug events (ADEs) from spurious correlations is a central challenge in pharmacovigilance. The InferBERT framework integrates transformer models with Do-calculus, but its success hinges on the underlying classification model. This study compares XGBoost, ALBERT, BioBERT, and Med-LLaMA on two benchmarks, finding that domain-specific pre-training (BioBERT) achieves the highest accuracy, while larger LLMs like Med-LLaMA underperform. Results indicate that investing in manageable, domain-aware models is more effective than simply scaling model size.

A study reveals that during prefill, LLMs write field-conditioned conclusions onto downstream 'notes', making KV cache editable and composable. Editing a field with chain-of-thought recovers decisions with ~1% compute, while precompiled skills can be position-portable and spliced into any context, achieving near-identical outputs to full recompute with up to 14.9x lower latency. The approach is validated across scales and cache types, achieving 98.5% prefix cache hit rate in production benchmarks.

This paper presents a diffusion-based approach for generating clinical time series that jointly models laboratory values and their observation patterns. Using the DACMI benchmark from MIMIC-III, it aligns chart times into 4-hour intervals and segments admissions into 7-day windows. The method extends TimeDiff to learn continuous lab values and discrete missingness patterns, demonstrating that generated data closely matches real patient trajectories, capturing clinically meaningful dependencies under MNAR-like missingness. This work serves as an initial component for developing clinical foundation models.

This study addresses the shape-prior shortcut problem in learning-based long-range single-shot fringe projection profilometry (FPP). Using mechanistic interpretability and conformal uncertainty quantification, the authors diagnose that UNet baselines rely on object-boundary shape priors rather than fringe-phase decoding. They propose PhiCalNet, which outputs wrapped phase and applies a differentiable calibration layer, reducing object MAE 3.3x to 4.46 mm and confirming architecture as the key factor.

A new study identifies 'editing decoupling failure' in Multimodal Large Language Models: knowledge updates succeed under multimodal inputs but revert when inputs are split into unimodal.

MemTrace is a benchmark that evaluates LLM long-term memory at the knowledge-point level along three dimensions: memory age, question type, and evidence condition. It reveals that similar pooled accuracy masks different failures, with the main bottleneck being evidence use rather than retrieval.

A new study investigates whether language models can independently discover the mathematical concept of zero. It finds that GPT-2 scale models fail at test-time generalization but improve substantially with few-shot training, and language pretraining reduces the required examples by about 50%, suggesting language abilities scaffold mathematical discovery in neural models.

In skill-constrained production-inventory systems, the qualified human capacity available tomorrow depends on training decisions made today: production requires certified workers, certifications decay unless maintained, and training consumes the same scarce worker hours that production needs now. We study a closed-loop skill-constrained model predictive controller that, at every shift, solves a finite-horizon mixed-integer program over production, inventory, backlog, and training, with binary predicted certification, hard production eligibility, and an interpretable terminal value that prices certified-capacity gaps at the horizon boundary; only the first-period action is applied before replanning. On synthetic, seed-controlled SkillChain-Gym scenarios - announced and surprise new-skill shocks, demand shocks, absenteeism, forecast- and availability-quality modes, capacity-boundary and training-rate sweeps, and negative controls - we evaluate the controller against production-only and maintenance-only ablations, static cross-training insurance plans, and a strong reactive heuristic, under an ex-ante locked configuration and paired statistics. The result is regime dependence, not superiority: no policy class dominates. Predictive control helps when skill or labor bottlenecks are forecastable early enough for training to complete; lean static insurance remains hard to beat under surprise shocks, near the demand-capacity boundary, and wherever pre-shock slack makes insurance cheap. Attribution ablations separate certification maintenance, re-acquisition of lapsed certifications, and greenfield skill acquisition. Forecastability, not adaptivity per se, decides when predictive control pays.
