Speculative execution accelerates LLM agents by using a smaller, cheaper model to predict and pre-launch the next step while the environment is idle. However, existing speculators are stateless and discard all information between tasks, preventing prediction quality from improving with experience. We equip the speculator with three online memory systems that learn from past agent trajectories: a contrastive transition table tracking action-sequence statistics, an episodic memory retrieving contextually similar segments, and a confusion tracker suppressing recurring errors. We evaluate this approach on six benchmarks spanning three speculation types: action prediction, observation prediction, and chained prediction. Memory-augmented speculation yields a 19--39\% relative accuracy improvement on action prediction and up to a $2.5\times$ increase on observation prediction tasks with repetitive action spaces. These gains grow continuously as memory accumulates and generalize across speculator models of varying cost. All speculation is lossless because it runs during idle time at zero added wall-clock cost, and the actor's trajectory is identical to non-speculative execution.
In this paper, we propose a new solution for addressing the content cold-start problem in industry-scale search and recommender systems. Compared to prior approaches, we have made the following new contributions: 1) our solution spans the entire multi-stage funnel and generalizes…
Dysphagia is a debilitating late effect of head and neck cancer (HNC) treatment, yet timely identification of at-risk patients remains challenging in survivorship care. Definitive assessment relies on videofluoroscopic imaging, as captured by the Dynamic Imaging Grade of Swallowi…
Foreign language anxiety (FLA) can be a major barrier to second language acquisition (SLA), especially in conversational contexts. With the proliferation of large language models (LLMs) throughout all areas of life, recent work suggests that interacting with LLM agents can be ins…
Singular value soft-thresholding can be computed via a reduction to the matrix polar decomposition, which allows one to exploit GPU-friendly algorithms for computing the polar decomposition. Empirically, there is a significant speed-up on GPUs compared to the standard approach us…
A central design principle in modern machine learning and artificial intelligence is to align a model's inductive bias with the structure of its input data. For matrix-valued inputs, relevant matrix-level relationships can be characterised through spectral values and spectral sub…
Commercial large language models are increasingly used as knowledge references, yet their stance on contested scientific claims is neither stable nor transparent. We tested how four major LLM families (Claude, Grok, GPT, Gemini) evaluate ethnonationalist pseudo-science derived fr…
