Large Language Models (LLMs) excel at general language tasks but struggle in specialized domains. Specialized Generalist Models (SGMs) address this by preserving broad capabilities while adapting to target domains. However, existing architectures provide limited support for task-guided specialize...

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...

Reasoning is an important task for large language models (LLMs). Among all the reasoning paradigms, inductive reasoning is one of the basic types, which is characterized by its particular-to-general thinking process and the non-uniqueness of its answers. The inductive mode is crucial for knowledg...

Recent progress in reinforcement learning with verifiable rewards (RLVR) offers a practical path to self-improving language models, but existing methods face a key trade-off: endogenous self-play can drift over iterations, while corpus-grounded approaches rely on curated data environments. We pre...

Reinforcement learning (RL) paradigms have demonstrated strong performance on reasoning-intensive tasks such as code generation. However, limited trajectory diversity often leads to diminishing returns, which constrains the achievable performance ceiling. Search-enhanced RL alleviates this issue...

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...

Large language model (LLM) routing assigns each query to the most suitable model from an ensemble. We introduce LLMRouterBench, a large-scale benchmark and unified framework for LLM routing. It comprises over 400K instances from 21 datasets and 33 models. Moreover, it provides comprehensive metri...
