GeoMotionGPT: Geometry-Aligned Motion Understanding with Large Language Models

Discrete motion tokenization has recently enabled Large Language Models (LLMs) to serve as versatile backbones for motion understanding and motion-language reasoning. However, existing pipelines typically decouple motion quantization from semantic embedding learning, linking them solely via token IDs. This approach fails to effectively align the intrinsic geometry of the motion space with the embedding space, thereby hindering the LLM's capacity for nuanced motion reasoning. We argue that alignment is most effective when both modalities share a unified geometric basis. Therefore, instead of forcing the LLM to reconstruct the complex geometry among motion tokens from scratch, we present a novel framework that explicitly enforces orthogonality on both the motion codebook and the LLM embedding space, ensuring that their relational structures naturally mirror each other. Specifically, we employ a decoder-only quantizer with Gumbel-Softmax for differentiable training and balanced codebook usage. To bridge the modalities, we use a sparse projection that maps motion codes into the LLM embedding space while preserving orthogonality. Finally, a two-stage orthonormal regularization schedule enforces soft constraints during tokenizer training and LLM fine-tuning to maintain geometric alignment without hindering semantic adaptation. Extensive experiments show that our framework improves the aggregated Average by 22.4% over the strongest baseline on HumanML3D and by 14.4% on KIT-ML, while ablations confirm the effectiveness of the tokenizer, projection, and regularization designs.

TraceQuery: learning what to recompute from full-denoising trajectory in diffusion language models

Diffusion large language models (dLLMs) enable flexible generation through iterative masked denoising, but incur substantial inference cost because token representations are repeatedly recomputed across denoising steps. Existing cache-based methods reduce this cost by reusing intermediate results across denoising steps and recomputing only a subset of positions at each step, chosen either on a fixed schedule or by heuristic signals of change. Our trajectory experiments instead point to decoding trajectory as the more relevant quantity. Cached generation remains accurate when it stays close to the full-denoising trajectory, with errors concentrated around unmask-order deviations and reduced as longer reference prefixes are recovered. This suggests a more direct principle: limiting representation error helps, but keeping generation on the full-denoising trajectory is a more direct route to accurate decoding. We therefore formulate efficient dLLM inference as trajectory-guided querying. Rather than broadly repairing representation error, we use full-denoising trajectories to supervise which unresolved positions should receive limited fresh computation. Based on this formulation, we introduce TRACEQUERY, a lightweight sparse decoding framework that predicts a small set of near-future trajectory-relevant positions, queries only those candidates, and lets the backbone select which one to commit from their fresh predictions. TRACEQUERY delivers the strongest quality-computation trade-off among cache-based approaches, sustaining high accuracy with substantially fewer fresh token computations, and generalizes across tasks, model variants, and families.

MoEGen: Mixture-of-Experts for Instance-Adaptive LoRA Generation

Parameter-efficient fine-tuning (PEFT) enables efficient adaptation of large language models, but existing MoE-based PEFT methods typically improve capacity by storing multiple full LoRA experts, causing adapter storage to grow linearly with the number of experts and restricting adaptation to a fixed expert pool. We ask whether MoE-based PEFT can produce instance-specific adaptations without explicitly storing a separate LoRA module for each expert. To address this gap, we propose MoEGen, an adaptation framework that shifts MoE-based PEFT from expert selection to expert-conditioned parameter generation. Instead of storing each expert as a full LoRA adapter, MoEGen represents each expert as a small learnable vector, termed an expert code. It routes each input over these vectors and uses their weighted combination to condition a lightweight hypernetwork that generates input-specific low-rank updates. This design decouples expert capacity from adapter storage while enabling instance-conditioned adaptation. Experiments on eight commonsense reasoning benchmarks show consistent improvements over strong static and MoE-based PEFT baselines across three backbones. MoEGen also performs strongly in joint medical and legal-domain adaptation.

GroupMask: Layer-Adaptive Group-wise Sparsity for Semi-Structured LLM Pruning

Semi-structured pruning compresses large language models (LLMs) while keeping a regular sparse structure, but the prevailing N:M pattern fixes the same local sparsity ratio in every layer. Layer-adaptive sparsity allocation improves unstructured pruning, yet it has been reported to be less effective under N:M sparsity, leaving open whether adaptive allocation is of limited value for semi-structured pruning in general or only under the fine-grained N:M pattern. We examine this question with group-level sparsity, which partitions each weight matrix into regular groups, retains or prunes each group as a whole, and allows each layer's sparsity ratio to vary under a global budget. We propose GroupMask, which generates the group selectors of all layers with a lightweight hypernetwork, relaxes them with a Gumbel-Sigmoid parameterization and a straight-through estimator, and learns them through sparsity-budget regularization and self-distillation while keeping the pretrained weights frozen. On LLaMA-2-7B at 50% sparsity with the same $1\times256$ group size, learned layer-adaptive allocation reduces WikiText-2 perplexity from 10.02 to 8.30 and raises the average zero-shot accuracy from 0.455 to 0.496 relative to a uniform per-layer ratio. GroupMask obtains the lowest WikiText-2 perplexity on LLaMA-2-7B and the highest average zero-shot accuracy with Alpaca calibration among the evaluated baselines on five LLaMA and Qwen models.

Focused ReAct: Improving ReAct through Reiterate and Early Stop

Large language models (LLMs) have significantly improved their reasoning and decision-making capabilities, as seen in methods like ReAct. However, despite its effectiveness in tackling complex tasks, ReAct faces two main challenges: losing focus on the original question and becoming stuck in action loops. To address these issues, we introduce Focused ReAct, an enhanced version of the ReAct paradigm that incorporates reiteration and early stop mechanisms. These improvements help the model stay focused on the original query and avoid repetitive behaviors. Experimental results show accuracy gains of 18% to 530% and a runtime reduction of up to 34% compared to the original ReAct method.
