Abstract:Persistent memory lets long-running large language model agents reuse information across sessions and tasks. Yet errors in writable memory can persist and corrupt future behavior. Existing systems improve storage and retrieval, but they do not provide a transaction boundary for reliable updates and recovery. We therefore propose MemTxn, a governance layer outside the answer model. MemTxn verifies whether an update is supported by its source. It also selects the visible version when facts conflict and restores the application-visible state after a fault. The system uses Ordered PatchTest to validate writes, a Temporal Resolver to select versions, and a durable snapshot journal to recover state. On an item-disjoint audit, MemTxn accepts all 60 supported originals and rejects all 179 hard negatives. Under persistent multi-key faults on LongMemEval-S and LoCoMo states, it restores the complete declared active map without knowing the actual physical write set. On MemoryAgentBench FactConsolidation, MemTxn achieves the highest average F1 across all twelve answer-model configurations. It outperforms Dense by 17.06--24.07 points in five representative settings.
Abstract:Diffusion models are widely used to generate high-quality images and videos, but their iterative denoising process remains computationally intensive. A growing class of training-free accelerators reduces this cost by reusing cached intermediate features or forecasting future ones. To control draft drift, these methods sometimes compute an exact block feature for verification. Yet the resulting exact feature is typically used only to measure discrepancy or guide a later decision and is then discarded. We find that this previously computed feature can instead be reused for correction. Forwarding it at the verification site resets the local draft residual and reduces downstream feature error. Based on this observation, we introduce FeatFix, a local exact-feature correction method for cached diffusion inference. FeatFix operates at a fixed sparse set of layer--timestep sites. At each selected site, it replaces the complete draft block output with the exact output computed from the same incoming state, avoiding token- or channel-level partial replacement and full-timestep recomputation. Experiments across four image and video backbones show that FeatFix consistently accelerates generation, achieving a speedup of up to $6.70\times$ over Vanilla while maintaining competitive output quality.
Abstract:Proactive warning is an important capability for edge intelligent services, where the system predicts whether a subject will successfully complete an incoming task under strict latency and privacy constraints. Such prediction depends on both long-term static attributes and short-term dynamic states derived from historical interaction logs. Recent Large Language Models (LLMs) offer strong long-context reasoning for constructing structured profiles from these logs, but existing solutions face two challenges for edge deployment: (1) profiling methods are typically domain-specific and lack a reusable abstraction across service scenarios, and (2) fine-tuning alignment models on heterogeneous edge clusters incurs high synchronization overhead due to the variance in input sequence lengths. To address these challenges, we propose CogGuard, a proactive-warning framework for edge intelligent services. CogGuard decouples offline LLM-based profile construction from online Small Language Model (SLM)-based score prediction through a shared static-dynamic profile-to-score pipeline, and instantiates it in two representative scenarios: educational performance warning and operational task outcome warning. For efficient profile construction, we design scenario-specific profiling methods with prefix-aligned KV-cache reuse to reduce repeated encoding overhead. For edge-side model alignment, we propose a length-aware distributed fine-tuning strategy with contrastive regularization to mitigate workload imbalance on heterogeneous clusters. Experiments on education and operation datasets show that CogGuard reduces profile construction time by up to 48% and distributed fine-tuning time by 19%, while achieving MAEs of 13.4 and 5.9, respectively, on 100-point-scale warning tasks. In the largest educational setting, CogGuard reduces prediction error by 15.4% compared with the strongest baseline.
Abstract:Disaggregated serving alleviates memory bottlenecks in Large Language Model (LLM) inference but creates a severe communication bottleneck: transmitting high-dimensional Key-Value (KV) caches often dominates time-to-first-token (TTFT). Moreover, reusing caches across heterogeneous models (e.g., base and fine-tuned variants) causes semantic misalignment that accumulates over layers, degrading generation quality. We propose Semantic Cache Distillation (SCD), a loss-constrained framework that replaces raw KV transmission with compact semantic codes. SCD addresses these challenges via two mechanisms: (1) Reuse, which reconstructs most layers from low-rank subspaces to minimize transfer cost, and (2) Patch, which predicts normalized inputs at sparse transition layers to truncate error propagation. Empirically, SCD delivers up to 2.65 $\times$ TTFT speedup over the oracle consumer prefill and dominates quantization and selective recomputation baselines on the quality--latency Pareto frontier in bandwidth-constrained regimes, while keeping generation quality within 5\% F1 of the oracle.
Abstract:Autoregressive (AR) video diffusion models enable long-form video generation but remain expensive due to repeated multi-step denoising. Existing training-free acceleration methods rely on binary cache-or-recompute decisions, overlooking intermediate cases where direct reuse is too coarse yet full recomputation is unnecessary. Moreover, asynchronous AR schedules assign different noise levels to co-generated frames, yet existing methods process the entire valid interval uniformly. To address these AR-specific inefficiencies, we present SCOPE, a training-free framework for efficient AR video diffusion. SCOPE introduces a tri-modal scheduler over cache, predict, and recompute, where prediction via noise-level Taylor extrapolation fills the gap between reuse and recomputation with explicit stability controls backed by error propagation analysis. It further introduces selective computation that restricts execution to the active frame interval. On MAGI-1 and SkyReels-V2, SCOPE achieves up to 4.73x speedup while maintaining quality comparable to the original output, outperforming all training-free baselines.
