However, humanoid control networks are typically obtained through conventional training procedures, while comparatively little attention has been given to directly modeling the distribution of their learned weights and generating functional networks in weight space. In this work, we investigate whether high-performing humanoid control networks can be generatively modeled directly through their weights. We adopt a latent diffusion framework that couples a linear autoencoder with a Diffusion Transformer. The autoencoder compresses actor network parameters into a compact latent space, and the Diffusion Transformer models the distribution of these latents. Trained on networks collected from reinforcement learning for the Unitree G1 robot, our approach generates deployable networks that perform various motions in the real world, including walking, dancing, and spin kick. Beyond generation, we further study the learned weight space to better understand the structure captured by these humanoid control networks. We identify a structural principle in the first-layer weights that consistently reflects the robot's kinematic prior. Notably, this kinematic prior emerges under both Reinforcement Learning (RL) and Imitation Learning (IL) training, suggesting that it is not specific to a particular optimization process but may instead reflect common knowledge associated with humanoid embodiment.

      "summary": "Mobile Manipulation (MoMa) is a cornerstone of autonomous robotic systems, yet real-world fine-tuning remains a formidable challenge because of high-dimensional action spaces and intricate coupling between heterogeneous modules. In this paper, we propose HiRe-MoMa (Hierarchical Residual Mobile Manipulation), a systematic framework for stable and sample-efficient real-world fine-tuning of complex MoMa systems. At its core, HiRe-MoMa adopts a Hierarchical Residual Architecture that fine-tunes a frozen base policy. A Policy-Agnostic Residual learns additive corrections atop the base policy, while Hierarchical Decoupling splits the residual into mobile-base and manipulator-arm heads with unidirectional conditioning, mitigating gradient interference and aligning corrections with the platform's physical hierarchy. To improve sample efficiency in data-expensive real-world settings, we propose Expert-Guided Value Alignment, which leverages sparse human interventions with under 20% training coverage to reshape the critic's value landscape, effectively guiding autonomous exploration through expert priors. Extensive real-world experiments on the TIAGo++ platform demonstrate that HiRe-MoMa consistently enhances task performance with only around 30 minutes of online interaction, regardless of the base policy architecture. To our knowledge, this is among the first frameworks to enable efficient on-robot fine-tuning for mobile manipulation in the real world, providing a practical paradigm for deploying complex robotic systems in dynamic, human-centric environments.

We introduce a retraining-free method that elastifies pre-trained transformers into a single model that adapts on-the-fly across a continuum of computational budgets.

Across 27 vision and text transformer encoders ranging from 22M to 8B parameters, our method yields smooth degradation up to 60% sparsity and outperforms one-shot baselines under deep pruning.

      "title": "Latent Compaction with Test-Time Training",
      "summary": "Long contexts enlarge key--value (KV) caches, increasing memory use and attention costs during generation. Compressing these caches must preserve information for unseen questions. We introduce **Latent Compaction**, which learns a compact document-specific cache through test-time training. We initialize cache entries using reconstruction importance, teacher attention, and key-space diversity. Training first fits attention outputs and log-normalizers to those of the full cache, with reconstruction-selected entries held fixed. It then jointly optimizes the entire cache through end-to-end distillation from the full-cache model. Model weights remain frozen throughout, and training uses only generic prompts about the document, without access to downstream questions or answers. Experiments on RULER, LongBench, and Phonebook Lookup demonstrate substantial gains over budget-matched compression baselines. On a RULER, for example, our method achieves 96.7% accuracy at 32$\\times$ compression, compared with 40.0% for KVZip+.

        "en": "Long contexts enlarge key--value (KV) caches, increasing memory use and attention costs during generation. Compressing these caches must preserve information for unseen questions. We introduce **Latent Compaction**, which learns a compact document-specific cache through test-time training. We initialize cache entries using reconstruction importance, teacher attention, and key-space diversity. Training first fits attention outputs and log-normalizers to those of the full cache, with reconstruction-selected entries held fixed. It then jointly optimizes the entire cache through end-to-end distillation from the full-cache model. Model weights remain frozen throughout, and training uses only generic prompts about the document, without access to downstream questions or answers. Experiments on RULER, LongBench, and Phonebook Lookup demonstrate substantial gains over budget-matched compression baselines. On a RULER, for example, our method achieves 96.7% accuracy at 32$\\times$ compression, compared with 40.0% for KVZip+. The method also transfers across model scales and families, with retrieval gains on both Qwen3 and MiniCPM5.

We document three DPO attempts, all negative, including a case where the training reward margin reaches 1.0 while free generation does not change at all, and show that safety came from a dedicated safety-SFT (LLM-jp AnswerCarefully style), refined over three iterations until closing the safety-helpfulness frontier. A controlled scan of the fraction of general data in the safety-SFT mix (10% to 60%) reveals a non-monotonic over-refusal curve with a knee point at 40-50%. The final model is compared against four external PT-BR models on the same items, with Wilson confidence intervals and paired McNemar tests with Holm-Bonferroni correction: the lower bound of its safety interval (94.1%) lies above the upper bound of all four baselines. We also report a methodological finding for LLM-judge evaluation: on two of six safety items in MT-Bench-PT, the judge categorically refuses to assign a score regardless of the evaluated response, silently reducing the effective N of that category in every prior report of the project.

      "summary": "Speculative decoding accelerates autoregressive generation by drafting multiple tokens per step, yet feature-based drafters rely on target hidden features whose contextual emphasis may not align with the needs of subsequent draft positions. Hybrid linear attention (HLA) models maintain compact recurrent states that accumulate historical associations, offering an efficient source of complementary context for speculative drafting. We introduce ReaDy, the first speculative decoding method, to the best of our knowledge, to leverage HLA recurrent states for position-specific context retrieval during drafting. ReaDy equips each draft position with a learned query to retrieve supplementary context directly from the target's committed recurrent states. A lightweight state reader integrates this context into draft representations through residual updates, while low-rank state reads and fused operators keep additional computation and I/O overhead low. Building on DSpark's parallel backbone and sequential prediction head, ReaDy employs a lightweight two-stage adaptation strategy, with reader capacity, state sources, and residual placement examined through ablation studies. Across seven benchmarks spanning mathematics, code generation, and dialogue, ReaDy achieves an average $3.16\\times$ decoding speedup over autoregressive decoding with Qwen3.8-27B on a single NVIDIA B200 GPU.

      "summary": "We present CommerceGen-Studio, an end-to-end framework for generating commercial-grade main images for e-commerce Stock Keeping Units (SKUs). Our framework is organized along a three-stage pipeline of information extraction, semantic rewriting, and multi-condition generation: Prompt-Eval-Refine-Loop Agent (PERL-Agent) distills heterogeneous SKU metadata into concise selling-point text lists through an iterative closed loop of VLM and LLM roles scored by a reference-free rubric. Layout Thinker Optimization (LTO) aligns the rewriter with both caption and rendered-image quality via alternating domain-specific policy optimization.

      "summary": "Relational deep learning has emerged as a powerful paradigm for learning end-to-end predictive models over relational databases by representing them as temporal heterogeneous graphs. Recent advances based on graph neural networks and Transformers have achieved strong performance across diverse domains. However, the effectiveness of simpler relational baselines remains underexplored, making it difficult to assess how much architectural complexity is needed to achieve strong predictive performance. Motivated by the observation that predictive signals arise from target attributes, relational attributes, and historical labels, we revisit how effectively these signals can be exploited using simple propagation methods. We adapt fixed low-pass feature propagation to relational entity graphs and train an MLP for prediction. The resulting predictions are further refined using Correct-and-Smooth, a graph-based label propagation algorithm that incorporates historical labels over task-specific meta-graphs connecting target entities. Across classification and regression tasks on RelBench, an MLP trained on neighborhood-filtered features outperforms one using only target-entity features on most tasks and recovers a substantial portion of the performance of heterogeneous GNNs. Correct-and-Smooth provides further gains from historical labels, although applying it requires a separately constructed meta-graph because connections among target entities are not directly specified by the relational entity graph.

Despite remarkable architectural diversity, these methods often share a common input representation: raw coordinate-value pairs $(x, u(x))$. We ask whether inputs aligned with PDE differential structure can improve learning. Through Picard iteration on mild solutions, we show that derivatives of the input appear explicitly in the solution operator, suggesting that providing derivative features should reduce the network's implicit differentiation burden. We prove this intuition: providing derivative features improves approximation bounds from $O(W^{-(s-m)/d})$ to $O(W^{-s/d})$, where $W$ is parameter count, $s$ is input regularity, $m$ is the PDE order, and $d$ is spatial dimension. Our central finding, however, is a surprise: the optimal derivative order $β^*$ is strictly less than the PDE order $m$. This gap arises from a bias-variance tradeoff in spectral space that we characterize in closed form. Learning $β$ from data achieves automatic spectral regularization. We introduce $\\partial$-NO (del-NO), for derivative-augmented neural operators, an architecture-agnostic augmentation that provides learnable fractional derivative features to any neural operator backbone.

      "title": "Hierarchical Gaussian Processes for Survey Weighting: Local Equivalent Weights in Structured Populations",
      "summary": "Regression-based survey weighting connects model-based population estimation with design-based inference through equivalent weights. For nonlinear models, equivalent weights can be defined locally through the sensitivity of a poststratified population estimator. However, conventional regression models may inadequately capture nonlinear relationships and complex interactions across sparse poststratification cells. We develop a survey-weighting framework based on hierarchical Gaussian process (HGP) regression, combining structured group-level effects with kernel-based smoothing to share information across related cells. We derive Gaussian posterior prediction formulas that exploit the structured covariance representation to reduce computational costs. We also establish a uniform convergence result for the posterior predictive mean under stated regularity conditions and construct local equivalent weights by matching the first-order sensitivity of a plug-in poststratified estimand to that of a weighted average of fitted response means, with both derivatives taken with respect to the latent mean-scale vector. Simulations show that HGP achieves lower population-weighted prediction error under nonparametric structure, whereas logistic regression performs well under correct parametric specification. Additional analyses examine sample size, frame coverage, subgroup prediction, and population-mean agreement. An application to the Future of Families and Child Wellbeing Study illustrates the method. Overall, this work extends local equivalent-weight construction to nonparametric modeling and provides a computational framework and conditional theoretical results for survey weighting in structured, sparse populations.",

        "en": "Regression-based survey weighting connects model-based population estimation with design-based inference through equivalent weights. For nonlinear models, equivalent weights can be defined locally through the sensitivity of a poststratified population estimator. However, conventional regression models may inadequately capture nonlinear relationships and complex interactions across sparse poststratification cells. We develop a survey-weighting framework based on hierarchical Gaussian process (HGP) regression, combining structured group-level effects with kernel-based smoothing to share information across related cells. We derive Gaussian posterior prediction formulas that exploit the structured covariance representation to reduce computational costs. We also establish a uniform convergence result for the posterior predictive mean under stated regularity conditions and construct local equivalent weights by matching the first-order sensitivity of a plug-in poststratified estimand to that of a weighted average of fitted response means, with both derivatives taken with respect to the latent mean-scale vector. Simulations show that HGP achieves lower population-weighted prediction error under nonparametric structure, whereas logistic regression performs well under correct parametric specification. Additional analyses examine sample size, frame coverage, subgroup prediction, and population-mean agreement. An application to the Future of Families and Child Wellbeing Study illustrates the method. Overall, this work extends local equivalent-weight construction to nonparametric modeling and provides a computational framework and conditional theoretical results for survey weighting in structured, sparse populations."
