Large Language Models (LLMs) are increasingly used for code editing, yet the prevalent full-code generation paradigm suffers from severe efficiency bottlenecks, posing challenges for interactive coding assistants that demand low latency and cost. Despite the predominant focus on scaling model capabilities, the edit format itself has been largely overlooked in model training. In this paper, we begin with a systematic study of conventional diff formats and reveal that fragile offsets and fragmented hunks make generation highly unnatural for LLMs. To address it, we introduce BlockDiff and FuncDiff, two structure-aware diff formats that represent changes as block-level rewrites of syntactically coherent units such as control structures and functions. Furthermore, we propose AdaEdit, a general adaptive edit strategy that trains LLMs to dynamically choose the most token-efficient format between a given diff format and full code. Extensive experiments demonstrate that AdaEdit paired with structure-aware diff formats consistently matches the accuracy of full-code generation, while reducing both latency and cost by over 30% on long-code editing tasks.

Out-of-distribution (OOD) detection, a fundamental task vexing real-world applications, has attracted growing attention in the NLP community. Recently fine-tuning based methods have made promising progress. However, it could be costly to store fine-tuned models for each scenario. In this paper, we depart from the classic fine-tuning based OOD detection toward a parameter-efficient alternative, and propose an unsupervised prefix-tuning based OOD detection framework termed PTO. Additionally, to take advantage of optional training data labels and targeted OOD data, two practical extensions of PTO are further proposed. Overall, PTO and its extensions offer several key advantages of being lightweight, easy-to-reproduce, and theoretically justified. Experimental results show that our methods perform comparably to, even better than, existing fine-tuning based OOD detection approaches under a wide range of metrics, detection settings, and OOD types.

This paper describes our proposed model for the Chinese Grammatical Error Diagnosis (CGED) task in NLPTEA2020. The goal of CGED is to use natural language processing techniques to automatically diagnose Chinese grammatical errors in sentences. To this end, we design and implement a CGED model named BERT with Score-feature Gates Error Diagnoser (BSGED), which is based on the BERT model, Bidirectional Long Short-Term Memory (BiLSTM) and conditional random field (CRF). In order to address the problem of losing partial-order relationships when embedding continuous feature items as with previous works, we propose a gating mechanism for integrating continuous feature items, which effectively retains the partial-order relationships between feature items. We perform LSTM processing on the encoding result of the BERT model, and further extract the sequence features. In the final test-set evaluation, we obtained the highest F1 score at the detection level and are among the top 3 F1 scores at the identification level.
