Refining Word-Based Grammatical Error Annotation for L2 Korean
Announce Type: new Abstract: Korean grammatical error correction (K-GEC) presents a structural mismatch between word-based evaluation and the morpheme-level locus of many learner errors. Postpositions and verbal endings are bound to lexical hosts, but they encode grammatical relations that must be represented in correction and evaluation. This paper refines word-based grammatical error annotation for L2 Korean by addressing three connected problems in existing resources: surface target...
CHIMERA: A Flexible and Scalable 3.1 TOPS/W AI-MCU with Transformer Accelerator and 563 Gb/s Shared-L2 Memory Subsystem with QoS Guarantees
arXiv:2606.02358v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We present Chimera, a flexible and scalable Microcontroller Unit (MCU) designed to accelerate real-time inference of rapidly evolving transformer-based models at the ultra-low-power edge (hundred of mW). The chip, implemented in 22 nm FDX technology, integrates a transformer accelerator tightly coupled within a compute cluster featuring nine general-purpose RV32IMA cores. Scalability extends to the memory hierarchy through a novel L2 memory...
A Finetuned SpeechLLM for Joint Multi-Granular L2 Assessment and Natural-Language Rationales
Announce Type: new Abstract: Automated L2 speech assessment can assign proficiency labels, but often lacks interpretability. We propose a rubric-guided SpeechLLM for multi-aspect, multi-granular assessment, trained with a hybrid objective combining supervised fine-tuning and Bounded Direct Preference Optimization. The model jointly predicts ordinal labels at the sentence-level (accuracy, fluency, prosody), word/phoneme-level accuracy, and generates a natural-language rationale in the same...
Dead on Arrival: Characterizing and Protecting Against Dead-Entry TLB Misses in GPU Microarchitectures
arXiv:2606.00486v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: GPU workloads with large memory footprints frequently suffer from redundant L2 TLB misses in which a recently evicted translation is immediately re-walked at full page-walk cost. We characterize these dead-entry misses across 24 GPU workloads, finding they account for up to 99% of L2 TLB misses in the most TLB-sensitive applications, yet their performance impact varies widely depending on memory access structure. Workloads where warps share...
Chinese Grammatical Error Correction: A Survey
arXiv:2504.00977v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Chinese Grammatical Error Correction (CGEC) is a critical task in Natural Language Processing, addressing the growing demand for automated writing assistance in both second-language (L2) and native (L1) Chinese writing. While L2 learners struggle with mastering complex grammatical structures, L1 users also benefit from CGEC in academic, professional, and formal contexts where writing precision is essential. This survey provides a...
The Tell-Tale Norm: $\ell_2$ Magnitude as a Signal for Reasoning Dynamics in Large Language Models
arXiv:2606.06188v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Recent work has sought to understand Large Language Models (LLMs) reasoning, yet a principled, model-intrinsic signal that captures its layer-wise reasoning dynamics remains underexplored. We bridge this gap by demonstrating that the l2 norm of hidden states serves as an endogenous signal of the model's reasoning intensity. Using Sparse Autoencoders (SAEs) as a diagnostic probe, we observe that LLMs' internal reasoning is marked by a sharp...
Multi-task Learning is Not Enough: Representational Entanglement in Dual-output Second Language Speech Recognition
Announce Type: new Abstract: Second-language (L2) speech recognition often requires transcriptions of pronunciations and intended meanings. Multi-task learning (MTL) is a natural approach because it assumes that shared representations benefit both outputs. However, this paper shows that this assumption does not hold across Korean and English.

Accelerating Bidiagonalization of Banded Matrices through Memory-Aware Bulge-Chasing on GPUs
arXiv:2510.12705v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: The reduction of a banded matrix to bidiagonal form is a critical step in the calculation of Singular Values, a cornerstone of scientific computing and AI. Although inherently parallel, this step has traditionally been considered unsuitable for GPUs due to its memory-bound nature. However, recent advances in GPU architectures, such as increased L1 memory per Streaming Multiprocessor or Compute Unit and larger L2 caches, have shifted this...
Knowledge Manifold: A Riemannian Geometric Framework for Semantic Mapping and Geodesic Analysis of Scientific Literature
arXiv:2606.05907v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We present the knowledge manifold: a Riemannian geometric space in which a corpus of documents is arranged according to semantic positional relationships derived from character n-gram TF-IDF representations. The framework proceeds in five tightly coupled stages. First, each document is converted to a character-level n-gram TF-IDF vector (4-7 grams, up to 250,000 features, L2-normalized) and embedded in a two-dimensional knowledge map via...
