ARES: Multimodal Adaptive Reasoning via Difficulty-Aware Token-Level Entropy Shaping

ICLR 2026poster

Recent advances in multimodal large reasoning models (MLRMs) have substantially improved their ability to solve complex textual and visual tasks. However, these models tend to *overthink* on simple problems, producing unnecessarily lengthy reasoning traces, while *under-exploring* on challenging one…

What You Think is What You See: Driving Exploration in VLM Agents via Visual-Linguistic Curiosity

ICML 2026spotlight

To navigate partially observable visual environments, recent VLM agents increasingly internalize world modeling capabilities directly into their policies via explicit CoT reasoning with reinforcement learning (RL). However, mere passive exploitation of reasoning on visited states is insufficient for…

Causally Motivated Sycophancy Mitigation for Large Language Models

ICLR 2025poster

Incorporating user preferences into large language models (LLMs) can enhance the personalization and reliability of model outputs and facilitate the application of LLMs to real-world scenarios. However, leveraging user preferences can be a double-edged sword. Recent studies have found that improper…

DiEP: Adaptive Mixture-of-Experts Compression through Differentiable Expert Pruning

NeurIPS 2025poster

Despite the significant breakthrough of Mixture-of-Experts (MoE), the increasing scale of these MoE models presents huge memory and storage challenges. Existing MoE pruning methods, which involve reducing parameter size with a uniform sparsity across all layers, often lead to suboptimal outcomes and…
