DeInfer: Efficient Parallel Inferencing for Decomposed Large Language Models

Existing works on large language model (LLM) decomposition mainly focus on improving performance on downstream tasks, but they ignore the poor parallel inference performance when trying to scale up the model size. To mitigate this important performance issue, this paper introduces DeInfer, a high-performance inference system dedicated to parallel inference of decomposed LLMs. It consists of multiple optimizations to maximize performance and be compatible with state-of-the-art optimization techniques. Extensive experiments are carried out to evaluate DeInfer's performance, where the results demonstrate its superiority, suggesting it can greatly facilitate the parallel inference of decomposed LLMs.

Current-tunable room temperature ferromagnetism and current-driven phase transitions

It is generally assumed that the application of a charge-current in ferromagnetic metals suppresses their ferromagnetic order through trivial Joule heating. Here, we demonstrate that a charge current can instead enhance magnetic ordering. Using a WTe2/Fe3Ge2Te (FGT) stack as a model system, we show that a charge current flowing in WTe2 controls the ferromagnetic properties and magnetic phase transition of the adjacent FGT via a current-induced effective magnetic-field arising from orbital magnetization. Remarkably, the charge current drives a substantial enhancement of the Curie temperature, boosting it well above room temperature. Furthermore, we show that the charge-current enables controlled tuning of the phase transitions in FGT, which confirms the scaling behaviour of a ferromagnet-paramagnet phase transition. This work provides a pathway for integrating two-dimensional ferromagnets into spintronic functionalities at technologically relevant temperatures and for exploring novel current-driven phenomena in ferromagnetic systems.

DOne: Decoupling Structure and Rendering for High-Fidelity Design-to-Code Generation

While Vision Language Models (VLMs) have shown promise in Design-to-Code generation, they suffer from a "holistic bottleneck-failing to reconcile high-level structural hierarchy with fine-grained visual details, often resulting in layout distortions or generic placeholders. To bridge this gap, we propose DOne, an end-to-end framework that decouples structure understanding from element rendering. DOne introduces (1) a learned layout segmentation module to decompose complex designs, avoiding the limitations of heuristic cropping; (2) a specialized hybrid element retriever to handle the extreme aspect ratios and densities of UI components; and (3) a schema-guided generation paradigm that bridges layout and code. To rigorously assess performance, we introduce HiFi2Code, a benchmark featuring significantly higher layout complexity than existing datasets. Extensive evaluations on the HiFi2Code demonstrate that DOne outperforms exiting methods in both high-level visual similarity (e.g., over 10% in GPT Score) and fine-grained element alignment. Human evaluations confirm a 3 times productivity gain with higher visual fidelity.

SoLA: Leveraging Soft Activation Sparsity and Low-Rank Decomposition for Large Language Model Compression

Large language models (LLMs) have demonstrated impressive capabilities across various tasks, but the billion-scale parameters pose deployment challenges. Although existing methods attempt to reduce the scale of LLMs, they require either special hardware support or expensive post-training to maintain model quality. To facilitate efficient and affordable model slimming, we propose a novel training-free compression method for LLMs, named "SoLA", which leverages \textbf{So}ft activation sparsity and \textbf{L}ow-r\textbf{A}nk decomposition. SoLA can identify and retain a minority of components significantly contributing to inference, while compressing the majority through low-rank decomposition, based on our analysis of the activation pattern in the feed-forward network (FFN) of modern LLMs. To alleviate the decomposition loss, SoLA is equipped with an adaptive component-wise low-rank allocation strategy to assign appropriate truncation positions for different weight matrices. We conduct extensive experiments on LLaMA-2-7B/13B/70B and Mistral-7B models across a variety of benchmarks. SoLA exhibits remarkable improvement in both language modeling and downstream task accuracy without post-training. For example, with a 30\% compression rate on the LLaMA-2-70B model, SoLA surpasses the state-of-the-art method by reducing perplexity from 6.95 to 4.44 and enhancing downstream task accuracy by 10\%.

EZBlender: Efficient 3D Editing with Plan-and-ReAct Agent

As a cornerstone of the modern digital economy, 3D modeling and rendering demand substantial resources and manual effort when scene editing is performed in the traditional manner. Despite recent progress in VLM-based agents for 3D editing, the fundamental trade-off between editing precision and agent responsiveness remains unresolved. To overcome these limitations, we present EZBlender, a Blender agent with a hybrid framework that combines planning-based task decomposition and reactive local autonomy for efficient human AI collaboration and semantically faithful 3D editing. Specifically, this unexplored Plan-and-ReAct design not only preserves editing quality but also significantly reduces latency and computational cost. To further validate the efficiency and effectiveness of the proposed edge-autonomy architecture, we construct a dedicated multi-tasking benchmark that has not been systematically investigated in prior research. In addition, we provide a comprehensive analysis of language model preference, system responsiveness, and economic efficiency.

SEAL: Structure and Element Aware Learning to Improve Long Structured Document Retrieval

In long structured document retrieval, existing methods typically fine-tune pre-trained language models (PLMs) using contrastive learning on datasets lacking explicit structural information. This practice suffers from two critical issues: 1) current methods fail to leverage structural features and element-level semantics effectively, and 2) the lack of datasets containing structural metadata. To bridge these gaps, we propose \our, a novel contrastive learning framework. It leverages structure-aware learning to preserve semantic hierarchies and masked element alignment for fine-grained semantic discrimination. Furthermore, we release \dataset, a long structured document retrieval dataset with rich structural annotations. Extensive experiments on both released and industrial datasets across various modern PLMs, along with online A/B testing, demonstrate consistent performance improvements, boosting NDCG@10 from 73.96\% to 77.84\% on BGE-M3.

Generalized Parikh Matrices For Tracking Subsequence Occurrences

We introduce and study a generalized Parikh matrix mapping based on tracking the occurrence counts of special types of subsequences. These matrices retain more information about a word than the original Parikh matrix mapping while preserving the homomorphic property. We build the generalization by first introducing the Parikh factor matrix mapping and extend it to the Parikh sequence matrix mapping. We establish an interesting connection between the generalized Parikh matrices and the original ones and use it to prove that certain important minors of a Parikh sequence matrix have nonnegative determinant. Finally, we generalize the concept of subword histories and show that each generalized subword history is equivalent to a linear one.
