This paper provides a theoretical analysis of Transformers' limitations for time series forecasting through the lens of In-Context Learning (ICL) theory, demonstrating that even powerful Transformers often fail to outperform simpler models like linear models. The study focuses on Linear Self-Attention (LSA) models and shows that they cannot achieve lower expected MSE than classical linear models for in-context forecasting, and that predictions collapse to the mean exponentially under Chain-of-Thought inference.
This article explores how prompt engineering can be used to improve time-series analysis with Large Language Models (LLMs), covering core strategies, preprocessing, anomaly detection, and feature engineering. It provides practical prompts and examples for various tasks.
Hierarchical Reasoning Model (HRM) is a novel approach using two small neural networks recursing at different frequencies. This biologically inspired method beats Large Language models (LLMs) on hard puzzle tasks such as Sudoku, Maze, and ARC-AGI while trained with small models (27M parameters) on small data (around 1000 examples). HRM holds great promise for solving hard problems with small networks, but it is not yet well understood and may be suboptimal. We propose Tiny Recursive Model (TRM), a much simpler recursive reasoning approach that achieves significantly higher generalization than HRM, while using a single tiny network with only 2 layers. With only 7M parameters, TRM obtains 45% test-accuracy on ARC-AGI-1 and 8% on ARC-AGI-2, higher than most LLMs (e.g., Deepseek R1, o3-mini, Gemini 2.5 Pro) with less than 0.01% of the parameters.
In this paper, we introduce PLUM, a framework designed to adapt pre-trained LLMs for industry-scale recommendation tasks. PLUM consists of item tokenization using Semantic IDs, continued pre-training (CPT) on domain-specific data, and task-specific fine-tuning for recommendation objectives. We conduct comprehensive experiments on large-scale internal video recommendation datasets and demonstrate substantial improvements for retrieval compared to a heavily-optimized production model.
Nvidia's DGX Spark is a relatively affordable AI workstation that prioritizes capacity over raw speed, enabling it to run models that consumer GPUs cannot. It features 128GB of memory and is based on the Blackwell architecture.
Large language models (LLMs) are rapidly being implemented in a wide range of disciplines, with the promise of unlocking new possibilities for scientific exploration. However, while the development of LLMs brings opportunities to science, it also comes with pressing challenges. This Focus discusses the current state of the art, highlights key obstacles, and examines some of the potential pitfalls and biases of implementing and using LLMs across different domains, including healthcare, urban planning, chemistry, linguistics, humanities, and computer science. In addition, the Focus explores emerging technologies – such as neuromorphic engineering – that show promise in enhancing the energy efficiency of LLM deployment on hardware platforms.
