Distribution-Consistent Inference for Dynamic Sparse Mixture-of-Experts

arXiv:2609.09241v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) architectures have emerged as a powerful paradigm for scaling model capacity while preserving efficient inference in large foundation models. However, most MoE models use a fixed top-$k$ expert selection policy, assigning the same expert budget to every token even when fewer experts may be sufficient. Inference-time dynamic top-$k$ routing can reduce computation without retraining, but existing methods often overlook the distributional shift caused by deviating from the training-time routing configuration. We show that reducing the number of activated experts consistently increases the RMS scale and variance of SMoE outputs, inducing a representation mismatch that contributes to downstream performance degradation in addition to the loss of expert capacity. To address this correctable component, we propose Layer-wise Distribution Alignment (LDA), a lightweight inference-time correction that uses layer-wise calibration statistics to align reduced-routing representations with the default configuration. Across multiple SMoE LLMs, benchmarks, and routing strategies, LDA recovers much of the performance lost induced by the distributional shift under reduced routing while preserving sparse-inference efficiency with negligible overhead.

T-MAP: Red-Teaming LLM Agents with Trajectory-aware Evolutionary Search

arXiv:2603.22341v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: While prior red-teaming efforts have focused on eliciting harmful text outputs from large language models (LLMs), such approaches fail to capture agent-specific vulnerabilities that emerge through multi-step tool execution, particularly in rapidly growing ecosystems such as the Model Context Protocol (MCP). To address this gap, we propose a trajectory-aware evolutionary search method, T-MAP, which leverages execution trajectories to guide the discovery of adversarial prompts. Our approach enables the automatic generation of attacks that not only bypass safety guardrails but also reliably realize harmful objectives through actual tool interactions. Empirical evaluations across diverse MCP environments demonstrate that T-MAP substantially outperforms baselines in attack realization rate (ARR) and remains effective against frontier models, including GPT-5.2, Gemini-3-Pro, Qwen3.5, and GLM-5, thereby revealing previously underexplored vulnerabilities in autonomous LLM agents.

Frame Guidance: Training-Free Guidance for Frame-Level Control in Video Diffusion Models

arXiv:2506.07177v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Advancements in diffusion models have significantly improved video quality, directing attention to fine-grained controllability. However, many existing methods depend on fine-tuning large-scale video models for specific tasks, which becomes increasingly impractical as model sizes continue to grow. In this work, we present Frame Guidance, a training-free guidance for controllable video generation based on frame-level signals, such as keyframes, style reference images, sketches, or depth maps. For practical training-free guidance, we propose a simple latent processing method that dramatically reduces memory usage, and apply a novel latent optimization strategy designed for globally coherent video generation. Frame Guidance enables effective control across diverse tasks, including keyframe guidance, stylization, and looping, without any training, compatible with any video models. Experimental results show that Frame Guidance can produce high-quality controlled videos for a wide range of tasks and input signals.
