Variance Reduction for Expectations with Diffusion Teachers new
arXiv · 2026-05-20
OpenLearn
Pretrained diffusion models serve as frozen teachers feeding downstream pipelines such as text-to-3D, single-step distillation, and data attribution. The teacher gradients these pipelines consume are Monte Carlo (MC) expectations over noise levels and Gaussian noise samples; their estimator variance dominates compute cost because each draw requires expensive upstream work (rendering, simulation, encoding). We introduce CARV, a compute-aware variance-accounting framework that motivates a hierarchical MC estimator: amortize the expensive upstream computation over cheap diffusion-noise resamples, sharpened by timestep importance sampling and a stratified-inverse-CDF construction. In our text-to-3D distillation and attribution experiments, CARV delivers 2-3x effective compute multipliers (most from amortized reuse; ~25% additional from IS+stratification) without changing the objective; in si
Equilibrium Reasoners: Learning Attractors Enables Scalable Reasoning new
arXiv · 2026-05-20
OpenLearn
Scaling test-time compute by iteratively updating a latent state has emerged as a powerful paradigm for reasoning. Yet the internal mechanisms that enable these iterative models to generalize beyond memorized patterns remain unclear. We hypothesize that generalizable reasoning arises from learning task-conditioned attractors: latent dynamical systems whose stable fixed points correspond to valid solutions. We formalize this process through Equilibrium Reasoners (EqR), which enable test-time scaling without external verifiers or task-specific priors. EqR scales internal dynamics along two axes: depth, by running more iterations, and breadth, by aggregating stochastic trajectories from multiple initializations. Empirically, gains from test-time scaling are tightly coupled with stronger convergence toward solution-aligned attractors. This attractor perspective allows neural networks to adap
Uni-Edit: Intelligent Editing Is A General Task For Unified Model Tuning new
arXiv · 2026-05-20
OpenLearn
Currently, enhancing Unified Multimodal Models (UMMs) with image understanding, generation, and editing capabilities mainly relies on mixed multi-task training. Due to inherent task conflicts, such strategy requires complex multi-stage pipelines, massive data mixing, and balancing tricks, merely resulting in a performance trade-off rather than true mutual reinforcement. To break this paradigm, we propose Uni-Edit, an intelligent image editing task that serves as the first general task for UMM tuning. Unlike complex mixed pipelines, Uni-Edit improves performance across all three abilities at once using only one task, one training stage, and one dataset. Specifically, we first identify image editing as an inherently ideal general task, as it naturally demands both visual understanding and generation. However, existing editing data relies on simplistic instructions that severely underutiliz
Quantifying Hyperparameter Transfer and the Importance of Embedding Layer Learning Rate new
arXiv · 2026-05-20
OpenLearn
Hyperparameter transfer allows extrapolating optimal optimization hyperparameters from small to large scales, making it critical for training large language models (LLMs). This is done either by fitting a scaling law to the hyperparameters or by a judicious choice of parameterization, such as Maximal Update ($μ$P), that renders optimal hyperparameters approximately scale invariant. In this paper, we first develop a framework to quantify hyperparameter transfer through three metrics: (1) the quality of the scaling law fit, (2) the robustness to extrapolation errors, and (3) the asymptotic loss penalty due to choice of parameterization. Next, we investigate through a comprehensive series of ablations why $μ$P appears to offer high-quality learning rate transfer relative to standard parameterization (SP), as existing theory is inadequate. We find that the overwhelming benefit of $μ$P relati
EvoStruct: Bridging Evolutionary and Structural Priors for Antibody CDR Design via Protein Language Model Adaptation new
arXiv · 2026-05-20
OpenLearn
Equivariant graph neural network (GNN) methods for antibody complementarity-determining region (CDR) design achieve the highest sequence recovery but suffer from severe vocabulary collapse. The current best GNN methods over-predict very few amino acids, such as tyrosine and glycine, while ignoring functionally important residues. We trace this failure to GNN encoders learning amino acid distributions de novo from limited structural data, discarding substitution patterns encoded in evolutionary databases. To resolve this, we propose EvoStruct, which bridges a frozen protein language model (PLM) with 3D structural context from an E(3)-equivariant GNN via a cross-attention adapter. Unlike prior PLM-structure adapters for general protein design, EvoStruct targets the vocabulary collapse problem specific to CDR design through progressive PLM unfreezing and R-Drop consistency regularization.

One-Step Distillation of Discrete Diffusion Image Generators via Fixed-Point Iteration new
arXiv · 2026-05-20
OpenLearn
Discrete diffusion models excel at visual synthesis but rely on slow, iterative decoding. Existing single-step distillation methods attempt to bypass this bottleneck, either by training auxiliary score networks that effectively double compute, or by introducing specialized parameterizations and multi-stage pipelines that fragment optimization. In this paper, we introduce Fixed-Point Distillation (FPD), an end-to-end framework that constructs local correction targets by partially corrupting the student's one-step draft and refining it with a single teacher step. To compute the training objective in a semantically meaningful space, we lift discrete tokens into continuous features and apply a multi-bandwidth drift loss that iteratively accumulates these corrections. To backpropagate through the discrete bottleneck, we employ a straight-through estimator that feeds exact hard-sampled tokens
Velocityformer: Broken-Symmetry-Matched Equivariant Graph Transformers for Cosmological Velocity Reconstruction new
arXiv · 2026-05-20
OpenLearn
Precise measurement of the kinematic Sunyaev-Zel'dovich (kSZ) effect - a probe of the large-scale distribution of baryonic matter, a key observable for cosmological inference - requires accurate reconstruction of galaxy velocities from spectroscopic surveys. The signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of kSZ measurements scales directly with the correlation coefficient $r$ between reconstructed and true velocities. We introduce Velocityformer, an equivariant graph transformer architecture designed to match the specific symmetry of the observational data. While the underlying physics is equivariant with respect to translations and rotations, observational effects break this symmetry due to the preferred line-of-sight direction. Matching the model's inductive bias to the data's broken symmetry consistently improves performance across all model sizes and training volumes, with Velocityformer improving
DeepWeb-Bench: A Deep Research Benchmark Demanding Massive Cross-Source Evidence and Long-Horizon Derivation new
arXiv · 2026-05-20
OpenLearn
Deep research, in which an agent searches the open web, collects evidence, and derives an answer through extended reasoning, is a prominent use case for frontier language models. Frontier deep research products score high on existing benchmarks, making it difficult to distinguish their capabilities from current evaluation data alone. We introduce DeepWeb-Bench, a deep research benchmark that is substantially harder than existing benchmarks for the current frontier. Difficulty comes from three properties of the data itself: each task requires massive evidence collection, cross-source reconciliation, and long-horizon multi-step derivation. We represent these three sources of difficulty as four capability families (Retrieval, Derivation, Reasoning, and Calibration) and report results sliced by family. Every reference answer is accompanied by a source-provenance record with four disclosure l
AiraXiv: An AI-Driven Open-Access Platform for Human and AI Scientists new
arXiv · 2026-05-20
OpenLearn
Recent advances in artificial intelligence (AI) have accelerated the growth of both human-authored and AI-generated research outputs, placing increasing strain on traditional academic publishing systems and challenging the scalability of conference- and journal-centered paradigms amid rising submission volumes, reviewer workload, and venue size. To address these challenges, we explore an AI-era publishing paradigm in which both human and AI scientists participate as authors and readers, and papers evolve through continuous, feedback-driven iteration. We propose AiraXiv, an AI-driven open-access platform built on open preprints, AI-augmented analysis and review, and reader feedback. AiraXiv supports human scientists through an interactive UI and AI scientists through Model Context Protocol (MCP)-based interactions. We validate AiraXiv through real-world deployments, including serving as t
WikiVQABench: A Knowledge-Grounded Visual Question Answering Benchmark from Wikipedia and Wikidata new
arXiv · 2026-05-20
OpenLearn
Visual Question Answering (VQA) benchmarks have largely emphasized perception-based tasks that can be solved from visual content alone. In contrast, many real-world scenarios require external knowledge that is not directly observable in the image to answer correctly. We introduce WikiVQABench, a human-curated knowledge-grounded VQA benchmark constructed by systematically combining Wikipedia images, their associated article captions, and structured knowledge from Wikidata. Our pipeline uses large language models (LLMs) to generate candidate multiple-choice image-question-answer sets. All generated instances are subsequently reviewed and curated by human annotators to ensure factual correctness, visual-text consistency, and that each question requires external knowledge in addition to visual evidence for correct resolution. WikiVQABench comprises a substantial collection of Wikipedia image
