Expert-level Leaf Cell Layout Generation via Preference-Optimized LLM

ICML 2026poster

In the field of integrated circuits, leaf cells are the basic units, serving as the fundamental building blocks (e.g., standard cells) that are widely reused in various VLSI designs, forming the basis for more complex circuits. Therefore, the design quality of leaf cell layouts significantly impacts…

PADD: Path-Aligned Decompression Distillation for Non-Router Teacher to Guide MoE Student Learning

ICML 2026poster

As large language models (LLMs) continue to scale, it becomes increasingly challenging to grow model capacity under fixed computation budgets. We propose Path-Aligned Decompression Distillation (PADD), a framework for distilling knowledge from dense teachers without explicit routing into mixture-of-…

RA-ISF: Learning to Answer and Understand from Retrieval Augmentation via Iterative Self-Feedback

ACL 2024findings

Large language models (LLMs) demonstrate exceptional performance in numerous tasks but still heavily rely on knowledge stored in their parameters. Moreover, updating this knowledge incurs high training costs. Retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) methods address this issue by integrating external kno…
