arXiv:2603.07815v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Diffusion models have demonstrated a remarkable ability in Text-to-Image (T2I) generation applications. Despite the advanced generation output, they suffer from heavy computation overhead, especially for large models that contain tens of billions of parameters. Prior work has illustrated that replacing part of the denoising steps with a smaller model still maintains the generation quality. However, these methods only focus on saving computation for some timesteps, ignoring the difference in compute demand within one timestep. In this work, we propose HybridStitch, a new T2I generation paradigm that treats generation like editing. Specifically, we introduce a hybrid stage that jointly incorporates both the large model and the small model. HybridStitch separates the entire image into two regions: one that is relatively easy to render, enabling an early transition to the smaller model, and another that is more complex and therefore requires refinement by the large model. HybridStitch employs the small model to construct a coarse sketch while exploiting the large model to edit and refine the complex regions. According to our evaluation, HybridStitch achieves 1.83$\times$ speedup on Stable Diffusion 3, which is faster than all existing mixture of model methods.

arXiv:2508.02066v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Large Language Models (LLMs) have shown impressive performance across various domains, but their ability to perform molecular reasoning remains underexplored. Existing methods mostly rely on general-purpose prompting, which lacks domain-specific molecular semantics, or fine-tuning, which faces challenges in interpretability and reasoning depth, often leading to structural and textual hallucinations. To address these issues, we introduce MolReasoner, a two-stage framework that transitions LLMs from memorization to high-fidelity chemical reasoning. In the Mol-SFT stage, knowledge-enhanced Chain-of-Thought (CoT) data provides a strong foundation, while the Mol-RL stage refines reasoning using a novel, task-adaptive reward system to mitigate hallucinations. Extensive evaluations demonstrate that MolReasoner significantly outperforms a wide range of strong baselines in both molecule generation and captioning tasks. Further analyses highlight the framework's synergistic design and its ability to produce more interpretable outputs. Our work presents a principled and effective new approach for advancing high-fidelity molecular reasoning.

arXiv:2509.23040v4 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Large language models face challenges in long-context question answering, where key evidence of a query may be dispersed across millions of tokens. Existing works equip large language models with a memory buffer that is dynamically updated via a linear document scan, also known as the "memorize while reading" methods. While this approach scales efficiently, it suffers from pruning of latent evidence, information loss through overwriting, and sparse reinforcement learning signals. To tackle these challenges, we present ReMemR1, which integrates the mechanism of memory retrieval into the memory update process, enabling the agent to selectively callback historical memories for non-linear reasoning. To further strengthen training, we propose a multi-level reward design, which combines final-answer rewards with dense, step-level signals that guide effective memory use. Together, these contributions mitigate information degradation, improve supervision, and support complex multi-hop reasoning. Extensive experiments demonstrate that ReMemR1 significantly outperforms state-of-the-art baselines on long-context question answering while incurring negligible computational overhead, validating its ability to trade marginal cost for robust long-context reasoning.
