Customizing the Inductive Biases of Softmax Attention using Structured Matrices
The core component of attention is the scoring function, which transforms the inputs into low-dimensional queries and keys and takes the dot product of each pair. While the low-dimensional projection improves efficiency, it causes information loss for certain tasks that have intrinsically high-dimensional inputs. Additionally, attention uses the same scoring function for all input pairs, without imposing a distance-dependent compute bias for neighboring tokens in the sequence. In this work, we …

Forecast then Calibrate: Feature Caching as ODE for Efficient Diffusion Transformers
Diffusion Transformers (DiTs) have demonstrated exceptional performance in high-fidelity image and video generation. To reduce their substantial computational costs, feature caching techniques have been proposed to accelerate inference by reusing hidden representations from previous timesteps. However, current methods often struggle to maintain generation quality at high acceleration ratios, where prediction errors increase sharply due to the inherent instability of long-step forecasting. In th…

Code Difference Guided Fuzzing for FPGA Logic Synthesis Compilers via Bayesian Optimization
Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs) play a crucial role in Electronic Design Automation (EDA) applications, which have been widely used in safety-critical environments, including aerospace, chip manufacturing, and medical devices. A critical step in FPGA development is logic synthesis, which enables developers to translate their software designs into hardware net lists, which facilitates the physical implementation of the chip, detailed timing and power analysis, gate-level simulation, test …

Dual effect of cholesterol on interfacial water dynamics in lipid membranes: Interplay between membrane packing and hydration
Water contained within biological membranes plays a critical role in maintaining the separation between intracellular and extracellular environments and facilitating biochemical processes. Variations in membrane composition and temperature lead to phase state changes in lipid membranes, which in turn influence the structure and dynamics of the associated interfacial water. In this study, molecular dynamics simulations were performed on binary membranes composed of dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine…

The effects of no-slip boundaries and external force torque on two-dimensional turbulence in a square domain
We study two-dimensional turbulence in a square no-slip domain without bottom drag using direct numerical simulations. The dynamics are shown to depend strongly on the torque $M$ of the external forcing. When $M$ is relatively large, a long-lived coherent vortex forms at the domain center, establishing a persistent angular momentum. At lower torques, the angular momentum undergoes random sign reversals due to spontaneous switching of the central vortex circulation, though it predominantly align…

A Novel Mutation Based Method for Detecting FPGA Logic Synthesis Tool Bugs
FPGA (Field-Programmable Gate Array) logic synthesis tools are key components in the EDA (Electronic Design Automation) toolchain. They convert hardware designs written in description languages such as Verilog into gate-level representations for FPGAs. However, defects in these tools may lead to unexpected behaviors and pose security risks. Therefore, it is crucial to harden these tools through testing. Although several methods have been proposed to automatically test FPGA logic synthesis tools…
