Build Local AI Apps with C++ and NVIDIA TensorRT RTX Samples

Adding AI models to local applications requires a portable model format, a reliable runtime, and acceleration that works across target systems. Do Inference Now... Adding AI models to local applications requires a portable model format, a reliable runtime, and acceleration that works across target systems. Do Inference Now (DIN) Deploy is an open-source collection of practical C++ samples that bridges that gap. It combines ONNX Runtime with the NVIDIA TensorRT RTX execution provider to help developers move from a model checkpoint to a native… Source

Sample complexity bounds for categorical Markov random fields via Discrete Diffusions

Many applications in statistics, economics, and physics require sampling from high-dimensional categorical distributions with local dependence structures. Examples include finite memory language models, Ising and Potts systems in statistical physics and protein folding, etc. In modern machine learning, discrete diffusions have emerged as a flexible approach for sampling such data, with strong empirical performance. Motivated by this, we develop learning methods with end-to-end sample complexity bounds for discrete diffusion with uniform noising under local dependence, which we model through l...

Local Support Learning

We explore catastrophic forgetting in the context of large pre-trained models. By considering forgetting as a geometric problem in the input space of each weight matrix, we uncover a natural retention objective under which updates produced by gradient-based optimizers are suboptimal. Following this observation, we propose Local Support Learning (LSL), a general-purpose framework that augments gradient-based training for retention of prior capabilities without access to prior data. During a new learning phase, LSL pairs two components with distinct roles: a standard weight adapter, trained as ...

Argo-Bench: Evaluating Data Agents on Enterprise-Scale Workflows

Real-world enterprise data science and analytics workflows require reasoning across dozens of tables, performing statistical analyses, and acting on the results. Established text-to-SQL benchmarks evaluate query generation alone, and audits have found their answer keys frequently wrong. Because real enterprise warehouses are too sensitive to release, these benchmarks are built on public datasets where a business event fits in a single table. We introduce Argo-Bench, an evaluation framework comprising 210 data science and analytics tasks. Drawing on public data, peer-reviewed industry literatu...

Where-OPD: Spatially Guided On-Policy Self-Distillation of MLLMs with Synthetic Scenes

On-policy self-distillation has recently emerged as an effective approach for improving language-model reasoning by supervising students with a frozen or EMA version of themselves that receives privileged information. Its application to multimodal large language models (MLLMs), however, remains largely unexplored. Recent approaches use privileged visual information, such as image crops corresponding to a question, to improve fine-grained perception, but their gains are confined to tasks that benefit from such visual zooming and require either human-annotated grounding data or external teacher...

A Comparative Explainability Framework for DeBERTa-v3 in Zero-Shot Medical Abstract Classification

A comparative explainability framework is presented to audit DeBERTa-v3 under zero-shot classification of medical abstracts. The work addresses the disagreement problem in Explainable Artificial Intelligence, where different attribution methods produce divergent explanations for the same input and prediction. A natural language inference engine is implemented over the Medical Abstracts corpus with five enriched hypotheses per diagnostic category and a balanced sample of one thousand texts per class. Five explanation methods are compared: SHAP and LIME as model-agnostic approaches, occlusion a...

Are We Recovering Mechanisms? Objective-Level Recovery Gaps in Mechanistic Interpretability

Mechanistic interpretability aims to recover the internal computations responsible for model behavior. Progress in automated circuit discovery is often framed as a search problem: better attribution or optimization should identify better mechanisms. This assumes that the evaluation objective can recognize a better circuit once it is found. We show that intervention-defined faithfulness can instead prefer an equally sized circuit that reproduces the model's behavior less well, creating an objective-level recovery gap. Across four human-reference tasks and InterpBench, we compare validation fai...
