Language models (LMs) represent tokens using embedding matrices that scale linearly with the vocabulary size. To constrain the parameter footprint, prior work proposes hashing many tokens into a single vector within encoder-only models. While this offers parameter efficiency, many-to-one collisions prevent its use in causal LMs. In this paper, we propose MultiHashFormer, a new framework that allows hash-based autoregression. Each token is represented as a unique hash signature, a short sequence of discrete hash IDs, generated by multiple independent hash functions. A Hash Encoder compresses this signature into a single latent vector for processing by a Transformer decoder. Then, a Hash Decoder generates the hash signature of the next token, which is then mapped back to text. We evaluate our approach at the 100M, 1B and 3B parameter scales, demonstrating that MultiHashFormer consistently outperforms standard Transformer LMs across multiple benchmarks. Furthermore, we show that our model handles multilingual vocabulary expansion with a constant parameter footprint without any modifications.
Diffusion large language models (dLLMs) are a promising alternative to autoregressive generation. However, reasoning-oriented post-training for dLLMs remains challenging. Supervised fine-tuning (SFT) for dLLMs requires dense but often off-policy masked states, while reinforcement…
For any E-commerce website it is a nontrivial problem to build enduring advertisements that attract shoppers. It is hard to pass the creative quality bar of the website, especially at a large scale. We thus propose a programmatic solution to generate product advertising headlines…
Human choice behavior, including route choice, exhibits systematic behavioral biases that deviate from the assumptions of full rationality. Cumulative prospect theory (CPT) has been widely recognized as an effective framework for characterizing such behavioral patterns. However,…
Large language models (LLMs) can generate BPMN process models from natural-language descriptions, yet supervised fine-tuning (SFT) limits their output quality to the patterns present in the training data. Reinforcement learning (RL) can optimize beyond this ceiling using external…
Limited memory language models (LMLMs) externalize factual knowledge during pretraining to a knowledge base (KB), rather than memorizing it in their weights. During generation, the model then fetches knowledge from the KB as needed. This recently introduced paradigm provides mult…
Safety alignment in large language models is typically evaluated against direct, imperative harmful requests. We show that this alignment is highly conditioned on pragmatic register: models that refuse a direct request frequently comply when the same underlying objective is expre…
