CSV-Decode: Certifiable Sub-Vocabulary Decoding for Efficient Large Language Model Inference

Large language models face significant computational bottlenecks during inference due to the expensive output layer computation over large vocabularies. We present CSV-Decode, a novel approach that uses geometric upper bounds to construct small sub-vocabularies for each decoding step, enabling efficient sparse computation while maintaining dual correctness guarantees: exact top-$k$ certification and $\varepsilon$-certified softmax approximations. Our method clusters vocabulary embeddings offline and uses centroid-plus-radius bounds to identify which tokens can be safely omitted from computation. We provide a complete system implementation with sparse GEMV kernels, multi-GPU sharding, and CUDA Graph optimization. Experimental results demonstrate significant speedup over full vocabulary decoding while maintaining distributional guarantees and low fallback rates. Our code implementation available at \href{https://github.com/FastLM/CSV-Decode}{https://github.com/FastLM/CSV-Decode}.

Towards Generalist Game Players: An Investigation of Foundation Models in the Game Multiverse

The real world unfolds along a single set of physics laws, yet human intelligence demonstrates a remarkable capacity to generalize experiences from this singular physical existence into a multiverse of games, each governed by entirely different rules, aesthetics, physics, and objectives. This omni-reality adaptability is a hallmark of general intelligence. As Artificial Intelligence progresses towards Artificial General Intelligence, the multiverse of games has evolved from mere entertainment into the ultimate ground for training and evaluating AGI. The pursuit of this generality has unfolded across four eras: from environment-specific symbolic and reinforcement learning agents, to current large foundation models acting as generalist players, and toward a future creator stage where agent both creates new game worlds and continually evolves within them. We trace the full lifecycle of a generalist game player along four interdependent pillars: Dataset, Model, Harness, and Benchmark. Every advance across these pillars can be read as an attempt to break one of five fundamental trade-offs that currently bound the whole system. Building on this end-to-end view, we chart a five-level roadmap, progressing from single-game mastery to the ultimate creator stage in which the agent simultaneously creates and evolves within theoretical game multiverse. Taken together, our work offers a unified lens onto a rapidly shifting field,and a principled path toward the omnipotent generalist agent capable of seamlessly mastering any challenge within the multiverse of games, thereby paving the way for AGI.

ConEQsA: Concurrent and Asynchronous Embodied Questions Scheduling and Answering

This paper formulates the Embodied Questions Answering (EQsA) problem, introduces a corresponding benchmark, and proposes an agentic system to tackle the problem. Classical Embodied Question Answering (EQA) is typically formulated as answering one single question by actively exploring a 3D environment. Real deployments, however, often demand handling multiple questions that may arrive asynchronously and carry different urgencies. We formalize this setting as Embodied Questions Answering (EQsA) and present ConEQsA, an agentic framework for concurrent, urgency-aware scheduling and answering. ConEQsA leverages shared group memory to reduce redundant exploration, and a priority-planning method to dynamically schedule questions. To evaluate the EQsA setting fairly, we contribute the Concurrent Asynchronous Embodied Questions (CAEQs) benchmark containing 40 indoor scenes and five questions per scene (200 in total), featuring asynchronous follow-up questions and human-annotated urgency labels. We further propose metrics for EQsA performance: Direct Answer Rate (DAR), and Normalized Urgency-Weighted Latency (NUWL), which serve as a fair evaluation protocol for EQsA. Empirical evaluations demonstrate that ConEQsA consistently outperforms strong sequential baselines, and show that urgency-aware, concurrent scheduling is key to making embodied agents responsive and efficient under realistic, multi-question workloads.
