JOVE: Joint Execution and Verification for Resource-Aware LLM Task Graphs

Complex reasoning queries can be decomposed into directed acyclic task graphs and distributed across heterogeneous LLMs, reducing latency through parallelism and enabling smaller models to solve complex tasks. In practice, however, the suitability of an LLM for a given subtask may be a priori unknown, and execution alone does not reveal output correctness. We propose JOVE, an online framework that jointly assigns executor LLMs and selects intermediate outputs for paid verification. Verification runs asynchronously and is used to improve future allocations, so the system must balance spending on execution now against learning for later. We study how to optimize this trade-off under a long-term budget and a per-query latency constraint, with stochastic, initially unknown LLM service quality, invocation costs, and execution times. JOVE makes execution and verification decisions by solving a sequence of per-query mixed-integer linear programs. Online learning updates task-dependent estimates of LLM quality based on verification feedback, while an information-gain bonus incorporates the value of learning into allocation decisions. Under a natural set of assumptions, we establish sublinear quality-learning regret for JOVE. Across four reasoning benchmarks, JOVE achieves competitive accuracy against standard inference baselines while reducing average cost and latency by at least 3.17 times.

Generative Diffusion Model-based Compression of MIMO CSI

While neural lossy compression techniques have markedly advanced the efficiency of Channel State Information (CSI) compression and reconstruction for feedback in MIMO communications, efficient algorithms for more challenging and practical tasks-such as CSI compression for future channel prediction and reconstruction with relevant side information-remain underexplored, often resulting in suboptimal performance when existing methods are extended to these scenarios. To that end, we propose a novel framework for compression with side information, featuring an encoding process with fixed-rate compression using a trainable codebook for codeword quantization, and a decoding procedure modeled as a backward diffusion process conditioned on both the codeword and the side information. Experimental results show that our method significantly outperforms existing CSI compression algorithms, often yielding over twofold performance improvement by achieving comparable distortion at less than half the data rate of competing methods in certain scenarios. These findings underscore the potential of diffusion-based compression for practical deployment in communication systems.

Federated Learning Under Intermittent Client Availability and Time-Varying Communication Constraints

Federated learning systems facilitate training of global models in settings where potentially heterogeneous data is distributed across a large number of clients. Such systems operate in settings with intermittent client availability and/or time-varying communication constraints. As a result, the global models trained by federated learning systems may be biased towards clients with higher availability. We propose F3AST, an unbiased algorithm that dynamically learns an availability-dependent client selection strategy which asymptotically minimizes the impact of client-sampling variance on the global model convergence, enhancing performance of federated learning. The proposed algorithm is tested in a variety of settings for intermittently available clients under communication constraints, and its efficacy demonstrated on synthetic data and realistically federated benchmarking experiments using CIFAR100 and Shakespeare datasets. We show up to 186% and 8% accuracy improvements over FedAvg, and 8% and 7% over FedAdam on CIFAR100 and Shakespeare, respectively.
