Recent efforts to accelerate inference in Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) have largely focused on visual token compression. The effectiveness of these methods is commonly evaluated by measuring the accuracy drop on existing MLLM benchmarks before and after compression. However, these ben...

Prefilling computational costs pose a significant bottleneck for Large Language Models (LLMs) and Large Multimodal Models (LMMs) in long-context settings. While token pruning reduces sequence length, prior methods rely on heuristics that break compatibility with hardware-efficient kernels like Fl...

Block-wise discrete diffusion offers an attractive balance between parallel generation and causal dependency modeling, making it a promising backbone for vision-language modeling. However, its practical adoption has been limited by high training cost, slow convergence, and instability, which have...

Large Language Model-based Multi-Agent Systems (MAS) have demonstrated remarkable capabilities in complex tasks. However, manually designing optimal communication topologies is labor-intensive, while automated expansion methods often result in bloated structures with redundant agents, leading to...

We introduce MinerU2.5, a 1.2B-parameter document parsing vision-language model that achieves state-of-the-art recognition accuracy while maintaining exceptional computational efficiency. Our approach employs a coarse-to-fine, two-stage parsing strategy that decouples global layout analysis from...

Diffusion large language models (dLLMs) present a promising alternative to dominant autoregressive models (ARMs) by the ability of parallel decoding at the expense of substantial computation and memory costs. Specifically, the cache mechanism for bidirectional attention in dLLMs demands large mem...

Vision agent memory has shown remarkable effectiveness in long-video understanding; however, storing such memory for videos incurs substantial overhead, leading to high costs in both storage and computation. To address this issue, we propose StreamMeCo, an efficient Stream Agent Memory Compressio...

Dataset Pruning (DP) aims to construct a coreset that achieves performance comparable to the original, full dataset. However, few studies have explored DP in the context of Speech Classification (SC) tasks. Unlike image or text classification, SC is particularly challenging due to the difficulty...

Recent advancements in audio diffusion models have significantly improved text-to-audio editing via inversion techniques. However, these models typically rely on dense, fixed-step sampling trajectories to maintain structural integrity during inversion and generation, leading to prohibitive comput...

Autoregressive (AR) language modeling remains the dominant paradigm due to its dense supervision signal and highly optimized serving infrastructure, but its strictly causal, token-by-token decoding limits parallelism and non-causal modeling. While masked diffusion offers a promising path toward p...
