Toward Privileged Foundation Models:LUPI for Accelerated and Improved Learning

Researchers introduce PIQL, a framework that leverages privileged information to accelerate training and improve generalization in tabular foundation models. By incorporating dataset-level statistics and encodings of data-generating processes during training, the approach reduces computational requirements and convergence time while maintaining inference efficiency through reconstruction mechanisms.

Chain-of-Models Pre-Training: Rethinking Training Acceleration of Vision Foundation Models

Researchers present Chain-of-Models Pre-Training (CoM-PT), a novel method that accelerates vision foundation model training by up to 7.09X through sequential knowledge transfer from smaller to larger models in a unified pipeline, rather than training each model independently. The approach maintains or improves performance while significantly reducing computational costs, with efficiency gains increasing as more models are added to the training sequence.

Don't Retrain, Align: Adapting Autoregressive LMs to Diffusion LMs via Representation Alignment

Researchers introduce REPR-ALIGN, a method that converts autoregressive language models into diffusion language models by aligning their internal representations rather than retraining from scratch. The approach achieves up to 4x training acceleration and demonstrates that semantic structures learned through next-token prediction can transfer across different generation orders.
