Text Image Machine Translation (TIMT)—the task of translating textual content embedded in images—is critical for applications in accessibility, cross-lingual information access, and real-world document understanding. However, TIMT remains a complex challenge due to the need for accurate optical c...

Large language models (LLMs) can call tools effectively, yet they remain brittle in multi-turn execution: after a tool-call error, smaller models often fall into repetitive invalid re-invocations instead of interpreting the feedback and recovering. This failure mode persists because current train...

As a primary medium for human interaction and information exchange, social networking services (SNS) present distinct challenges for large language models (LLMs): rapidly evolving norms and slang, and culturally diverse content that causes knowledge distribution shift. While supervised fine-tunin...

Diffusion Language Models (DLMs) have emerged as a compelling alternative to autoregressive approaches, enabling parallel text generation with competitive performance. Despite these advantages, there is a critical instability in DLMs: the moving sink phenomenon. Our analysis indicates that sink t...
