Fine-tuning Large Language Models (LLMs) has become essential for domain adaptation, but its memory-intensive property exceeds the capabilities of most GPUs. To address this challenge and democratize LLM fine-tuning, we present SlideFormer, a novel system designed for single-GPU environments. Our innovations are: (1) A lightweight asynchronous engine that treats the GPU as a sliding window […]

Optimizing GPU kernels presents a significantly greater challenge for large language models (LLMs) than standard code generation tasks, as it requires understanding hardware architecture, parallel optimization strategies, and performance profiling outputs. Most existing LLM-based approaches to kernel generation rely on simple prompting and feedback loops, incorporating hardware awareness only indirectly through profiling feedback. We introduce […]

Low-precision neural network training has emerged as a promising direction for reducing computational costs and democratizing access to deep learning research. However, existing 4-bit quantization methods either rely on expensive GPU infrastructure or suffer from significant accuracy degradation. In this work, we present a practical method for training convolutional neural networks at true 4-bit precision […]

GPUs play an increasingly important role in modern software. However, the heterogeneous host-device execution model and expanding software stacks make GPU programs prone to memory-safety and concurrency bugs that evade static analysis. While fuzz-testing, combined with dynamic error checking tools, offers a plausible solution, it remains underutilized for GPUs. In this work, we identify three […]

The increasing adoption of Large Language Models (LLMs) has enabled AI scientists to perform complex end-to-end scientific discovery tasks requiring coordination of specialized roles, including idea generation and experimental execution. However, most state-of-the-art AI scientist systems rely on static, hand-designed pipelines and fail to adapt based on accumulated interaction histories. As a result, these systems […]

Large language models (LLMs) are increasingly deployed as AI agents that operate in short reasoning-action loops, interleaving model computation with external calls. Unlike traditional chat applications, these agentic workloads require inference serving systems to balance low latency, stable token emission, and throughput under multiple request arrivals from different AI agents. Recent deployments highlight a shift […]

Optimizing GPU kernels manually is a challenging and time-consuming task. With the rapid development of LLMs, automated GPU kernel optimization is gradually becoming a tangible reality. However, current LLM-driven automated optimization methods narrowly focus on machine learning applications, such as PyTorch operator optimization, while overlooking broader domains like sparse matrix operations in scientific computing. Extending […]

Improving GPU kernel efficiency is crucial for advancing AI systems. Recent work has explored leveraging large language models (LLMs) for GPU kernel generation and optimization. However, existing LLM-based kernel optimization pipelines typically rely on opaque, implicitly learned heuristics within the LLMs to determine optimization strategies. This leads to inefficient trial-and-error and weakly interpretable optimizations. Our […]

Quantization addresses the high resource demand for large language models (LLMs) by alleviating memory pressure and bandwidth congestion and providing significantly scaled compute power with a tolerable impact on accuracy. Four-bit floating point (FP4), the lowest-precision format that preserves essential numerical properties such as exponent and sign, has begun to be adopted in cutting-edge architectures, […]
