PRISM: Promoting Sampling Diversity of Large Language Models with Implicit Stochastic Modulation

arXiv:2610.32101v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) exhibit mode collapse, where their output distribution concentrates on familiar semantic modes. When diversity disappears, repeated sampling becomes semantic repetition rather than discovery, making rare but stronger solutions unlikely to surface and leaving self-evolution and continual learning difficult to sustain. Most remedies intervene only at inference time, shaping sam- ples without making diversity a model capability. We propose PRISM, a training-time framework that internalizes diversity within the model. PRISM combines (i) submodular curation that pairs each prompt with diverse-yet-correct multi-teacher solutions, and (ii) stochastic embedding modulation, which turns special-token perturbations into impl

Async-RBench: Benchmarking Asynchronous Task Execution in LLM Agents

arXiv:2610.32429v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language model (LLM) agents increasingly execute tasks asynchronously: a main agent continues working while its subagents run, and the task state may change before their results arrive. The main agent must decide which work to update or preserve and which checks to repeat, while avoiding prohibited changes. Final task success alone does not reveal whether these results were handled correctly, and natural asynchronous arrivals are hard to reproduce. We introduce Async-RBench, a benchmark for asynchronous task execution in LLM agents, with 200 executable tasks covering eight scenarios. A scenario controller regulates result delivery using predefined task-state conditions, while an Event Response Contract (ERC) specifies what each response

Linear-Time Context Compression with State-Space Encoding

arXiv:2610.33006v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Transformer-based large language models (LLMs) impose substantial computation and memory costs as context sizes increase, motivating methods that compress a context into a shorter representation before inference. Existing soft-prompt compression methods typically use the same Transformer backbone as used in the target model, where producing the compressed representation leads to significant latency overheads. This restricts them to the offline setting where context is compressed once and then reused across many queries. We propose the Boa Compressor, a plug-and-play online context compressor built on a Mamba state-space model (SSM) that encodes arbitrary-length context in a single linear-time pass, producing a representation on which we condi

Cutting both ways: AI sharpens systems protection while opening new exploits for malicious actors

The cybersecurity industry is discovering that powerful frontier AI models are a double-edged sword. Companies can use models to identify vulnerabilities in source code and system configurations faster than ever before. As it turns out, malicious actors can do this as well. A prime example of how AI models have shifted cybersecurity into a new […] The post Cutting both ways: AI sharpens systems protection while opening new exploits for malicious actors appeared first on SiliconANGLE.

Release: v5.21.0

# Release v5.21.0 ## New Model additions ### MiniCPM-OCR MiniCPM-OCR is a document-understanding model from OpenBMB's MiniCPM-V family. It keeps the MiniCPM-V 4.6 architecture, which pairs a SigLIP vision encoder and a window-attention merger with a Qwen3.5 language model. It is specialized for reading text-dense images such as scanned pages, screenshots, receipts and tables. **Links:** [Documentation](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/main/en/model_doc/minicpm_ocr) | [Paper](https://huggingface.co/papers/2509.18154) * Feat test (#49920) by @guarin in [#49920](https://github.com/huggingface/transformers/pull/49920) ### Flint Flint is Recursive's mixture-of-experts language model.
