Pooling Engram Conditional Memory in Large Language Models using CXL

Engram conditional memory has emerged as a promising component for LLMs by decoupling static knowledge lookup from dynamic computation. Since Engram exhibits sparse access patterns and supports prefetching, its massive embedding tables are well-suited for offloading to lower-tier memory. In this paper, we propose using Compute Express Link (CXL) memory pool for Engram storage. Compared to RDMA, CXL provides fine-grained and low-latency access required by minimal and discrete retrieval patterns of Engram. We integrate the CXL-based Engram pool into SGLang, achieving near-DRAM end-to-end performance. This provides a scalable and cost-efficient storage solution for future Engram-integrated LLMs without compromising inference performance.

Rethinking Few-Shot Image Fusion: Granular Ball Priors Enable General-Purpose Deep Fusion

In image fusion tasks, the absence of real fused images as supervision signals poses significant challenges for supervised learning. Existing deep learning methods typically address this issue either by designing handcrafted priors or by relying on large-scale datasets to learn model parameters. Different from previous approaches, this paper introduces the concept of incomplete priors, which formally describe handcrafted priors at the algorithmic level and estimate their confidence. Based on this idea, we couple incomplete priors with the neural network through a sample-level adaptive loss function, enabling the network to learn and re-infer fusion rules under conditions that approximate the real fusion process.To generate incomplete priors, we propose a Granular Ball Pixel Computation (GBPC) algorithm based on the principles of granular computing. The algorithm models fused-image pixels as information units, estimating pixel weights at a fine-grained level while statistically evaluating prior reliability at a coarse-grained level. This design enables the algorithm to perceive cross-modal discrepancies and perform adaptive inference.Experimental results demonstrate that even under few-shot conditions, a lightweight neural network can still learn effective fusion rules by training only on image patches extracted from ten image pairs. Extensive experiments across multiple fusion tasks and datasets further show that the proposed method achieves superior performance in both visual quality and model compactness.

A Vectorization Method Induced By Maximal Margin Classification For Persistent Diagrams

Persistent homology is an effective method for extracting topological information, represented as persistent diagrams, of spatial structure data. Hence it is well-suited for the study of protein structures. Attempts to incorporate Persistent homology in machine learning methods of protein function prediction have resulted in several techniques for vectorizing persistent diagrams. However, current vectorization methods are excessively artificial and cannot ensure the effective utilization of information or the rationality of the methods. To address this problem, we propose a more geometrical vectorization method of persistent diagrams based on maximal margin classification for Banach space, and additionaly propose a framework that utilizes topological data analysis to identify proteins with specific functions. We evaluated our vectorization method using a binary classification task on proteins and compared it with the statistical methods that exhibit the best performance among thirteen commonly used vectorization methods. The experimental results indicate that our approach surpasses the statistical methods in both robustness and precision.
