ProactiveLLM: Learning Active Interaction for Streaming Large Language Models
Standard Large Language Models (LLMs) follow a read-then-generate paradigm, causing unnecessary latency and computation. Streaming LLMs alleviate this issue by generating while receiving inputs, but still struggle to decide when to interact with the stream. Existing methods either hard-code interaction timing or rely on costly external alignment signals, such as timing labels, reasoning trajectories, or stronger teachers. In this paper, we propose ProactiveLLM, which achieves active interaction by leveraging the model's endogenous states to guide interaction decisions. The model first learns to perceive semantic sufficiency from partial inputs through two complementary training mechanisms...
