LIBMoE: A Library for comprehensive benchmarking Mixture of Experts in Large Language ModelsNam V. Nguyen, Thong T. Doan, Luong Tran et al.
Mixture of experts (MoE) architectures have become a cornerstone for scaling up and are a key component in most large language models such as GPT-OSS, DeepSeek-V3, Llama-4, and Gemini-2.5. However, systematic research on MoE remains severely constrained by the prohibitive computational costs of training and evaluation, restricting large-scale studies accessible to most researchers. We introduce LibMoE, a unified framework for reproducible, efficient, and extensible MoE research that supports both pretraining and sparse-upcycling regimes. Beyond unified implementations, the framework provides transparent analytical tools for probing routing and expert dynamics. Leveraging this foundation, we conduct a comprehensive analysis along three dimensions: (i) routing dynamics, covering expert selection patterns, routing stability and optimality, and how routing entropy reveals task specialization and expert diversity; (ii) the effect of lightweight initialization on load balancing, demonstrating how subtle changes in router initialization shape early expert utilization; and (iii) training regime differences, revealing how sparse upcycling and full pretraining exhibit distinct routing patterns and stability profiles. By lowering the barrier to entry and standardizing evaluation, along with our comprehensive analysis, LibMoE broadens access to MoE research and establishes a reliable benchmark to guide future innovations.

Multimedia Verification Through Multi-Agent Deep Research Multimodal Large Language ModelsHuy Hoan Le, Van Sy Thinh Nguyen, Thi Le Chi Dang et al.
This paper presents our submission to the ACMMM25 - Grand Challenge on Multimedia Verification. We developed a multi-agent verification system that combines Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) with specialized verification tools to detect multimedia misinformation. Our system operates through six stages: raw data processing, planning, information extraction, deep research, evidence collection, and report generation. The core Deep Researcher Agent employs four tools: reverse image search, metadata analysis, fact-checking databases, and verified news processing that extracts spatial, temporal, attribution, and motivational context. We demonstrate our approach on a challenge dataset sample involving complex multimedia content. Our system successfully verified content authenticity, extracted precise geolocation and timing information, and traced source attribution across multiple platforms, effectively addressing real-world multimedia verification scenarios.

Scalable Semi-supervised Learning with Graph-based Kernel MachineTrung Le, Khanh Nguyen, Van Nguyen et al.
Acquiring labels are often costly, whereas unlabeled data are usually easy to obtain in modern machine learning applications. Semi-supervised learning provides a principled machine learning framework to address such situations, and has been applied successfully in many real-word applications and industries. Nonetheless, most of existing semi-supervised learning methods encounter two serious limitations when applied to modern and large-scale datasets: computational burden and memory usage demand. To this end, we present in this paper the Graph-based semi-supervised Kernel Machine (GKM), a method that leverages the generalization ability of kernel-based method with the geometrical and distributive information formulated through a spectral graph induced from data for semi-supervised learning purpose. Our proposed GKM can be solved directly in the primal form using the Stochastic Gradient Descent method with the ideal convergence rate $O(\frac{1}{T})$. Besides, our formulation is suitable for a wide spectrum of important loss functions in the literature of machine learning (e.g., Hinge, smooth Hinge, Logistic, L1, and ε-insensitive) and smoothness functions (i.e., $l_p(t) = |t|^p$ with $p\ge1$). We further show that the well-known Laplacian Support Vector Machine is a special case of our formulation. We validate our proposed method on several benchmark datasets to demonstrate that GKM is appropriate for the large-scale datasets since it is optimal in memory usage and yields superior classification accuracy whilst simultaneously achieving a significant computation speed-up in comparison with the state-of-the-art baselines.
