Energy-navigated trajectory shaping during training produces 8-step discrete flow matching students that achieve 32% lower perplexity than 1024-step teachers on 170M language models with unchanged inference cost.
Repetition of training data produces a systematic eval loss peak at intermediate repeat counts whose location scales with model size, quantifiable as large compute-equivalent loss even at modest repetition fractions.
ARTS improves automated scientific discovery by using reasoning LMs with test-time training to separate hypothesis merit from execution quality in tree search, achieving 15.3% relative gains on 22 MLGym and MLEBench tasks.
Explicitly disentangling semantic and positional streams in a Transformer encoder reveals that absolute positional representations collapse to a 2D document-structure manifold, attention heads specialize by role, and the approach improves linguistic probing performance on 49 of 65 phenomena.
A 355M-parameter byte-level LM on 80B multilingual tokens exhibits UTF-8 validity converging after 4.2B tokens versus 2.1B for perplexity, with higher validity on rare characters than common ones.
At least fifteen independent dimensions of taste, texture, geography, processing, and culture can be recovered from curated FlavorGraph ingredient embeddings.
