BAHOP: Similarity-based Basin Hopping for A fast hyper-parameter search in WSI classification

ICASSP 2026poster

Pre-processing whole slide images (WSIs) can impact classification performance. Our study shows that using fixed hyper-parameters for pre-processing out-of-domain WSIs can significantly degrade performance. Therefore, it is critical to search domain-specific hyper-parameters during inference. Howeve…

ChipMind: Retrieval-Augmented Reasoning for Long-Context Circuit Design Specifications

AAAI 2026technical

While Large Language Models (LLMs) demonstrate immense potential for automating integrated circuit (IC) development, their practical deployment is fundamentally limited by restricted context windows. Existing context-extension methods struggle to achieve effective semantic modeling and thorough mult

FIXME: Towards End-to-End Benchmarking of LLM-Aided Design Verification

AAAI 2026technical

We introduce FIXME, the first end-to-end and large-scale benchmark for evaluating Large Language Models (LLMs) in hardware design functional verification (FV). Comprising 747 tasks derived from real-world hardware designs, FIXME spans five core FV sub-sets: specification comprehension, reference mod

RAEE: A Robust Retrieval-Augmented Early Exit Framework for Efficient Inference

ICLR 2026poster

Deploying large language model inference remains challenging due to their high computational overhead. Early exit optimizes model inference by adaptively reducing the number of inference layers. Current methods typically train internal classifiers or use heuristic methods to determine the exit layer…

RALAD: Bridging the Real-to-Sim Domain Gap in Autonomous Driving with Retrieval-Augmented Learning

IROS 2025

As end-to-end autonomous driving advances toward real-world deployment, ensuring the safety of autonomous vehicles (AVs) has become a critical requirement for their commercial viability. While rule-based AVs have traditionally undergone rigorous testing in both real-world and simulated environments

BehaviorGPT: Smart Agent Simulation for Autonomous Driving with Next-Patch Prediction

NeurIPS 2024poster

Simulating realistic behaviors of traffic agents is pivotal for efficiently validating the safety of autonomous driving systems. Existing data-driven simulators primarily use an encoder-decoder architecture to encode the historical trajectories before decoding the future. However, the heterogeneity…

When Compression Meets Model Compression: Memory-Efficient Double Compression for Large Language Models

EMNLP 2024finding

Large language models (LLMs) exhibit excellent performance in various tasks. However, the memory requirements of LLMs present a great challenge when deploying on memory-limited devices, even for quantized LLMs. This paper introduces a framework to compress LLM after quantization further, achieving a…
