TARE: Timescale-Aware Row-wise Energy Redistribution for Muon Optimizers

Published in Under review, 2026

Under review. A Muon-family optimizer that shifts update energy away from weight rows whose recent gradients conflict with the longer-term trend, reaching NorMuon’s loss with 1.07–1.10x higher token efficiency from 130M to 1.1B parameters at under 5% extra wall-clock time.

Syntactic Prediction through Reinforcement Learning

Published in Proceedings of the 2026 Conference on Empirical Methods in Natural Language Processing (EMNLP 2026), Main Conference, 2026

Accepted to EMNLP 2026 (Main Conference). Syntax-R1 is a two-stage post-training framework that uses reinforcement learning to improve hierarchical syntactic prediction in large language models, achieving state-of-the-art results on constituency parsing and CCG supertagging.

HR-Merge: Model Merging with Headroom-Weighted Residual Refinement

Published in NeurIPS 2026 Workshop on Neural Artifacts (NeuralArtifacts), Poster, 2026

NeurIPS 2026 NeuralArtifacts Workshop (Poster). A training-free, merge-operator-agnostic wrapper that provably never underperforms the base merge on validation. It gives the best result in every CLIP ViT and LoRA setting tested, reaching 94.29 on the LLaMA-3 8B six-NLI benchmark.
