Catalog-Native LLM: Speaking Item-ID dialect with Less Entanglement for Recommendation

ICLR 2026poster

While collaborative filtering delivers predictive accuracy and efficiency, and Large Language Models (LLMs) enable expressive and generalizable reasoning, modern recommendation systems must bring these strengths together. Growing user expectations, such as natural-language queries and transparent ex…

ToMoE: Converting Dense Large Language Models to Mixture-of-Experts through Dynamic Structural Pruning

ICML 2026poster

Large Language Models (LLMs) demonstrate remarkable capabilities but face deployment challenges due to their high computational demands. Traditional pruning methods reduce these costs by permanently removing parameters, which inevitably leads to performance degradation. To mitigate this issue, we pr…

ARGUS: Hallucination and Omission Evaluation in Video-LLMs

ICCV 2025poster

Video large language models have not yet been widely deployed, largely due to their tendency to hallucinate. Typical benchmarks for Video-LLMs rely simply on multiple choice questions. Unfortunately, VideoLLMs hallucinate far more aggressively on freeform text generation tasks like video captioning…

Efficient Fine-Tuning and Concept Suppression for Pruned Diffusion Models

CVPR 2025poster

Recent advances in diffusion generative models have yielded remarkable progress. While the quality of generated content continues to improve, these models have grown considerably in size and complexity. This increasing computational burden poses significant challenges, particularly in resource-const…

Not All Prompts Are Made Equal: Prompt-based Pruning of Text-to-Image Diffusion Models

ICLR 2025poster

Text-to-image (T2I) diffusion models have demonstrated impressive image generation capabilities. Still, their computational intensity prohibits resource-constrained organizations from deploying T2I models after fine-tuning them on their internal *target* data. While pruning techniques offer a potent…
