Lossless Tensor Compression as Program Synthesis
Model checkpoints are growing in both number and size, which makes archival, transfer, and deployment increasingly costly. General-purpose compressors can reduce storage requirements but ignore tensor structure, whereas existing tensor-specific compressors rely on fixed and format-specific pipelines. We present Brevis, which formulates lossless tensor compression as program synthesis. We design a typed domain-specific language (DSL) that captures recurring tensor structures, such as repeated regions and floating-point fields, through a set of reversible operators. Given a tensor, Brevis synthesizes a self-contained DSL program that reconstructs it bit-exactly. A checkpoint-specific production prior, learned from a small representative sample of tensors, guides a bounded A* search to synthesize compact programs, which can later be executed directly for bit-exact decompression. On 10 public checkpoints spanning language, audio, and image generation models, Brevis reduces 2.13 TB of checkpoint data to 1.41 TB, a 33.93% storage reduction. It produces archives up to 30.87% smaller than those of four general-purpose compressors, including zstd and gzip, and smaller archives than the tensor-specific compressors ZipNN and DFloat11. Under a practical concurrency configuration, Brevis achieves 3.60 GB/s compression and 6.61 GB/s decompression while preserving every source byte.
Mobile GUI Agent Privacy Personalization with Trajectory Induced Preference Optimization
Mobile GUI agents powered by Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) can execute complex tasks on mobile devices. Despite this progress, most existing systems still optimize task success or efficiency, neglecting users' privacy personalization. In this paper, we study the often-overlooked problem of agent personalization. We observe that personalization can induce systematic structural heterogeneity in execution trajectories. For example, privacy-first users often prefer protective actions, e.g., refusing permissions, logging out, and minimizing exposure, leading to logically different execution trajectories from utility-first users. Such variable-length and structurally different trajectories make standard preference optimization unstable and less informative. To address this issue, we propose Trajectory Induced Preference Optimization (TIPO), which uses preference-intensity weighting to emphasize key privacy-related steps and padding gating to suppress alignment noise. Results on our Privacy Preference Dataset show that TIPO improves persona alignment and distinction while preserving strong task executability, achieving 65.60% SR, 46.22 Compliance, and 66.67% PD, outperforming existing optimization methods across various GUI tasks. The code and dataset will be publicly released at https://github.com/Zhixin-L/TIPO.
