Adaptive Focus Memory for Language Models
arXiv:2511.12712v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) are increasingly deployed in multi-turn dialogue settings, yet their behavior remains bottlenecked by naive history management strategies. Replaying the full conversation at every turn is simple but costly, while recency-based truncation or static summarization often causes early, high-impact user constraints to drift out of effective context.

These incidents not only raise technical issues but also carry complex moral […]
The Generation Phases of Flow Matching: a Denoising Perspective
arXiv:2510.24830v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Flow matching has achieved remarkable success, yet the factors influencing the quality of its generation process remain poorly understood. In this work, we adopt a denoising perspective and design a framework to empirically probe the generation process. Laying down the formal connections between flow matching models and denoisers, we provide […]
DiffeoMorph: Learning to Morph 3D Shapes Using Differentiable Agent-Based Simulations
arXiv:2512.17129v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Biological systems can form complex three-dimensional structures through the collective behavior of identical agents — cells that follow the same internal rules and communicate without central control. How such distributed control gives rise to precise global patterns remains a central question not only in developmental biology but also in distributed […]
