Improving machine-translated novels via style transfer — looking for advice on the faithfulness/fluency tradeoff [P]

Hey all. I recently started working on a project to improve machine-translated webnovels via style transfer. The basic idea is to take the clunky translated prose and rewrite it to something that reads like it was written by a professional author, while remaining as faithful as p…

17KB, zero GPU, zero LLM: a Markov-chain experiment that outperforms baselines on Collatz and prime gaps. [D]

How far can a single Markov chain primitive go if you apply it at every level — byte, word, token, action, decision — with the same method call? The result is MCR, a ~2000-line experiment: MCR("byte").aprender(a, b) MCR("palavra").aprender(a, b) MCR("decisao").aprender(a, b) Same…

First Time Submitter to ArXiv and Need an Endorser [D]

Hi a I'm submitting my first arXiv paper in cs.AI. arXiv requires first-time submitter(s) to have an endorser. Is anyone here active in cs.ai or similar such as emerging tech, agents, etc. and willing to take a 30-second look at the abstract and click endorse if it's a fit? I can…

SentryCode: Real-time Auditor + Honeytokens for AI Coding Agents [P]

In light of recent privacy concerns arising from local AI coding agents performing telemetry, environmental scanning, and hidden cue fingerprinting, I've open-sourced SentryCode—a kernel-level behavior auditing tool. It logs file/network/cue activity, uses honeypot tokens for zer…

Are all LLM research papers nowadays 100+ pages beasts?[D]

Was reading some research papers put out by Anthropic (and some other organizations/researchers) and one thing I've noticed is that these research papers consistently all share the same quality: Oftentimes over 100 pages of pure words, interspersed with screenshots of very dense/…

I built an open-source memory governance layer for AI assistants - looking for technical feedback [P]

I’ve been working on a project called MemoryOps AI. The problem I’m trying to solve is context debt in AI agents. Most memory demos look like this: chat message → vector database → retrieve later That works for demos, but I think production agents need more than retrieval. They n…

Rejected MICCAI paper: workshop -> journal/conference or directly journal/conference [R]

Premise: this work is my first year PhD, and I dropped out for personal reasons. I still want to do research but independently. I have tried to submit my explainability paper to MICCAI. Sadly, for doubtful/good reasons, it got rejected. Among the reviewers, one explicitly suggest…

I do historical swordfighting and noticed AI struggles to track it. I’m building an open dataset to help fix this. Does my schema make sense? [P]

Hi everyone, I’m a historical swordfighter (HEMA practitioner), and while I’m not a computer vision engineer or a roboticist, I’ve been reading a lot about the current bottlenecks in embodied AI, specifically around the Sim2Real gap and thin-object tracking. It occurred to me tha…

Cerebras OpenAI deal capacity has effectively killed the waitlist for everyone else [D]

I’m pretty annoyed. We’re a small AI startup building a real-time coding agent. Our p95 latency requirements are tight (and self imposed, but thats the product). We need sustained high-throughput inference with ~1-2k tokens/second. Been on the Cerebras waitlist for months trying…

RAGless: Q-Q retrieval with score aggregation for closed-domain FAQ [P]

What it does RAGless is a semantic retrieval system based on Question-to-Question matching. At ingestion, an LLM generates multiple question variants per answer (3–5) and each variant gets its own embedding. At query time, the user question is embedded, Top-K nearest question var…

Benchmarking Self-Hosted Gemma 2 9B vs. Frontier APIs: The FP8 Quantization Prefill Tax and VRAM Realities on an NVIDIA L4 [P]

When evaluating migrating production LLM workloads off commercial cloud APIs, the conversation usually gets oversimplified into a trade-off between quality and infrastructure cost. To look past clean, isolated averages, I built a repeatable evaluation matrix using a real-world wo…

Do we still need to study algorithms now that AI writes most of our code? [D]

I've been thinking about this for a while. AI can now write functions, explain code, refactor projects, generate tests, and even solve many programming problems better than many junior developers. I've also noticed that Stack Overflow seems far less active than it used to be beca…

What if context compression is a diffusion noise function? Proposal + honest results from untrained-model experiments [R]

Could it be that there aren’t really any medical LLM APIs available right now? [D]

As part of my ablations, I want to generate text with a medical-oriented LLM, and I was surprised to find no exposed APIs for this kind of model. I found models like MedGemma and BioMistral on Hugging Face, but they don’t seem to offer public APIs, and I really don’t want to host…

I compiled LLM inference pricing across 7 providers — the caching numbers are surprising(spreadsheet included) [R]

Would having a dedicated programming language specifically for LLMs be a viable solution? [D]

What if there was a new programming language where the meaning of each token was so dense (or perhaps so specific) that an LLM could write robust code with fewer tokens and faster inference? Assuming there’s enough training data, do you think something like this allow an LLM to w…
