TEFM: Token-Efficient Faithful Modeling for Structured Data

arXiv · AI, language, vision and robotics · article · Sep 9, 2026 · UTC

In this paper, we solve two fundamental obstacles in applying LLMs to critical domains: token efficiency and faithfulness. To address both constraints jointly, we present TEFM (Token-Efficient Faithful Modeling), a framework designed for structured data analysis in critical domains. TEFM achieves token efficiency by compressing lengthy structured observations into compact Behavioral Code tokens, dramatically reducing token consumption with minimal information loss. Moreover, TEFM enables faithful rationalization through a dual-fidelity objective that jointly optimizes code-level reconstruction
