Reinforcement learning with verifiable rewards (RLVR) optimizes LLMs using sparse verifiable final-answer rewards. This sparse anchor reliably verifies whether a trajectory succeeds but provides no direct feedback on the reasoning path that produced it. Before success, prerequisi…
A central goal of current Spiking Neural Network (SNN) research is to improve their accuracy toward becoming low-power alternatives to Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs). This work further argues that realizing this ambition requires improving not only accuracy but also robustness…
With the advancement of imaging technology, ultra-high-definition images have become increasingly essential in modern visual applications. However, existing multi-focus image fusion remains largely confined to low-resolution images and faces three major barriers in UHD scenarios,…
Model capability is the central variable in LLM pre-training, yet is never observed directly: data shapes it prospectively, while evaluation reveals it only retrospectively, compressing samples, prompts, decoding, and scoring rules into one noisy score. Practical optimization run…
Off-policy distillation is now central to large language model pre-training, yet how training data, objective parameterization, and model capabilities interact remains poorly characterized. We studies top-$k$-truncated, temperature-scaled off-policy distillation by decomposing th…
