Large language models (LLMs) have been applied in various applications due to their astonishing capabilities. With advancements in technologies such as chain-of-thought (CoT) prompting and in-context learning (ICL), the prompts fed to LLMs…

Sentence compression reduces the length of text by removing non-essential content while preserving important facts and grammaticality. Unsupervised objective driven methods for sentence compression can be used to create customized models…

Language Reasoning Models (LRMs) achieve strong performance by scaling test-time computation but often suffer from ``overthinking'', producing excessively long reasoning traces that increase latency and memory usage. Existing LRMs typically…

Context compression aims to shorten long context inputs with minimal information loss for LLM inference acceleration. While existing methods have shown promise, they typically rely on complex compression modules or compression-specific…

Stochastic policies (also known as relaxed controls) are widely used in continuous-time reinforcement learning algorithms. However, executing a stochastic policy and evaluating its performance in a continuous-time environment remain open…

Federated learning can enable remote workers to collaboratively train a shared machine learning model while allowing training data to be kept locally. In the use case of wireless mobile devices, the communication overhead is a critical…

Context compression reduces Transformer inference costs by replacing lengthy inputs with shorter pre-computed representations. It carries significant benefits for retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) and has attracted growing research…

Tensor decomposition on big data has attracted significant attention recently. Among the most popular methods is a class of algorithms that leverages compression in order to reduce the size of the tensor and potentially parallelize…
