- TemMed-Bench: Evaluating Temporal Medical Image Reasoning in Vision-Language Models \ Existing medical reasoning benchmarks for vision-language models primarilyfocus on analyzing a patient's condition based on an image from a single visit.However, this setting deviates significantly from real-world clinical practice,where d… \ Source • arXiv cs.CL • 19:51
- KnowGuard: Knowledge-Driven Abstention for Multi-Round Clinical Reasoning \ In clinical practice, physicians refrain from making decisions when patientinformation is insufficient. This behavior, known as abstention, is a criticalsafety mechanism preventing potentially harmful misdiagnoses. Recentinvestigations hav… \ Source • arXiv cs.CL • 16:03
- SpecExtend: A Drop-in Enhancement for Speculative Decoding of Long Sequences \ Speculative decoding is a widely used technique for accelerating inference inlarge language models (LLMs), but its performance degrades as input lengthgrows, with significant drops even at moderate lengths. Yet, this earlydegradation has r… \ Source • arXiv cs.CL • 14:34
- AdaThink-Med: Medical Adaptive Thinking with Uncertainty-Guided Length Calibration \ Recent advances in inference time scaling with extended long chain-of thoughthave significantly improved the reasoning capabilities of both general andmedical large language models (LLMs). However, these models tend to engage inlengthy rea… \ Source • arXiv cs.CL • 12:13
- BLADE: Block-Sparse Attention Meets Step Distillation for Efficient Video Generation \ Diffusion Transformers currently lead the field in high-quality videogeneration, but their slow iterative denoising process and prohibitivequadratic attention costs for long sequences create significant inferencebottlenecks.

- Paired by the Teacher: Turning Unpaired Data into High-Fidelity Pairs for Low-Resource Text Generation \ We present Paired by the Teacher (PbT), a two-stage teacher-student pipelinethat synthesizes accurate input-output pairs without human labels or paralleldata. In many low-resource natural language generation (NLG) scenarios,practitioners m… \ Source • arXiv cs.CL • 19:51
- MCIP: Protecting MCP Safety via Model Contextual Integrity Protocol \ As Model Context Protocol (MCP) introduces an easy-to-use ecosystem for usersand developers, it also brings underexplored safety risks. Its decentralizedarchitecture, which separates clients and servers, poses unique challenges forsystemat… \ Source • arXiv cs.CL • 17:26
- Retro*: Optimizing LLMs for Reasoning-Intensive Document Retrieval \ With the growing popularity of LLM agents and RAG, it has become increasinglyimportant to retrieve documents that are essential for solving a task, evenwhen their connection to the task is indirect or implicit. Addressing thisproblem requi… \ Source • arXiv cs.CL • 16:53
- Metaphor identification using large language models: A comparison of RAG, prompt engineering, and fine-tuning \ Metaphor is a pervasive feature of discourse and a powerful lens forexamining cognition, emotion, and ideology. Large-scale analysis, however, hasbeen constrained by the need for manual annotation due to the context-sensitivenature of meta… \ Source • arXiv cs.CL • 16:50
- SVeritas: Benchmark for Robust Speaker Verification under Diverse Conditions \ Speaker verification (SV) models are increasingly integrated into security,personalization, and access control systems, yet their robustness to manyreal-world challenges remains inadequately benchmarked. These include a varietyof natural a… \ Source • arXiv cs.CL • 15:46
