TFRank: Think-Free Reasoning Enables Practical Pointwise LLM Ranking
Reasoning-intensive ranking models built on Large Language Models (LLMs) have made notable progress, but existing approaches often rely on large-scale LLMs and explicit Chain-of-Thought (CoT) reasoning, resulting in high computational cost and latency that limit real-world use. To address this, we propose \textbf{TFRank}, an efficient pointwise reasoning ranker based on small-scale LLMs. To improve ranking performance, TFRank effectively integrates CoT data, fine-grained score supervision, and …

Ich erinnere mich wie @… mir das mal versucht hat zu erklären, irgendwo zeitlich bei Command and Conquer Tiberian Sun, Shuttlebussen zur Dorfdisco Capitol und meinem ersten Kuss. 512 MB waren damals ein normaler MP3-Speicher, glaube ich und Ingo hatte nen Minidiscplayer und -brenner.
…meine Lernkurve ist diesbezüglich flach geblieben, befürchte ich.

On the Practical Use of Blaschke Decomposition in Nonstationary Signal Analysis
The Blaschke decomposition-based algorithm, {\em Phase Dynamics Unwinding} (PDU), possesses several attractive theoretical properties, including fast convergence, effective decomposition, and multiscale analysis. However, its application to real-world signal decomposition tasks encounters notable challenges. In this work, we propose two techniques, divide-and-conquer via tapering and cumulative summation (cumsum), to handle complex trends and amplitude modulations and the mode-mixing caused by …

Utilizing Multilingual Encoders to Improve Large Language Models for Low-Resource Languages
Large Language Models (LLMs) excel in English, but their performance degrades significantly on low-resource languages (LRLs) due to English-centric training. While methods like LangBridge align LLMs with multilingual encoders such as the Massively Multilingual Text-to-Text Transfer Transformer (mT5), they typically use only the final encoder layer. We propose a novel architecture that fuses all intermediate layers, enriching the linguistic information passed to the LLM. Our approach features tw…
