We welcome back the team behind the VAND anomaly-detection challenge, a staple of recent CVPR conferences. VAND brings together cutting-edge research on detecting what doesn’t belong in visual data—spanning anomaly, novelty, and out-of-distribution detection. Building on three successful editions, VAND 4.0 unites supervised, semi-, and unsupervised approaches, including few-, one-, and zero-shot learning, with a strong focus on real-world impact.

Why WideEP Inference Needs Data-Parallel-Aware Scheduling – Maroon Ayoub, IBM; Tyler Michael Smith, Red Hat
WideEP—wide expert parallelism fails not because experts are expensive, but because routing ignores where state already lives. In PyTorch LLM serving with vLLM, WideEP fans tokens across many experts while KV caches accumulate unevenly across data-parallel replicas. When routing is unaware of KV placement and per-replica load, requests land on replicas that cannot reuse cache or make progress efficiently and latency spikes as expert fan-out grows.
The fix is not reshaping expert parallelism, but making routing data-parallel aware using signals vLLM already exposes. In this talk, we show how llm-d extends its router to leverage KV-cache locality and load awareness when routing WideEP flows. Rather than treating replicas as interchangeable, the router prefers replicas with warm KV state and available capacity, aligning routing decisions with vLLM’s execution reality and reducing cache fragmentation.
This session walks through how KV-aware, data-parallel routing changes WideEP inference in practice: which signals matter, how routing behavior evolves, and where the gains come from. Attendees leave with a clear mental model for when KV- and load-aware routing unlocks higher throughput.

While LLMs produce fantastic results, the costs can be steep. A small language model is a great option for limited budgets and resources while still providing solid, fast outputs.

Project Lightning Talk: A Curator’s Guide to the CNCF Landscape – Katherine Druckman and Lori Lorusso
Step into the studio with two of the Netherlands’ most famous masters as we explore the CNCF Landscape like a gallery of modern technical masterpieces. Don your berets and join Rembrandt and Van Gogh as we paint a clearer picture of the CNCF ecosystem.
With more than 190 projects across the landscape, discovering what each one does can feel a bit like wandering through an enormous museum without a guide. “Just go to the website” isn’t always enough. Sometimes you need a curator to point out the highlights, explain the movements, and help you see how the pieces fit together.
In this lightning session, we’ll tour a selection of CNCF projects the way art historians might walk through a gallery, highlighting the themes, techniques, and innovations that make them stand out. By the end, you’ll have a clearer mental map of the landscape and be ready to navigate KubeCon like a seasoned collector.

Subsea cables are high-capacity fiber-optic lines laid along the ocean floor to enable global communication by transmitting data between continents. Spanning thousands of miles, they carry an estimated 95% of international internet, phone, and data transmissions.
Critically, these cables are vulnerable to sabotage by state actors, as they form critical infrastructure for global communication and economic stability. Indeed, Russia and China have been implicated in activities targeting subsea cables as recently as November 2024, and experts warn that these networks are likely to be focal points in future conflicts, heightening geopolitical tensions.
Josh Dzieza is a reporter for The Verge and has covered the subsea cable industry and the strategic importance of subsea cables. He joins the podcast alongside Gregor Vand to discuss this invisible, and increasingly important, network infrastructure.

When quantum meets AI, everything changes. ⚡️🤖
On the next Context Window Podcast, Ed Anuff and Anant Jhingran are joined by Alan Ho, CEO & Co-Founder of Qolab, to explore how quantum could quietly reshape the future of AI, from drug discovery to… well, maybe digital apocalypse 🧟 .
We’ll dig into:
👉 How quantum may first show up inside AI workflows
👉 Why small performance gains can mean massive advantage
👉 Where classical, quantum, and AI start working together
👉 What this shift means for builders and product leaders
Tune in for a conversation about where the next edge in AI might come from.
If quantum + AI sounds interesting… but still a little fuzzy 🤪, this one’s worth checking out.
🚨 Also, we’re moving the Context Window Podcast to our new YT page @ContextWindowPodcast so follow along as we roll things out for the upcoming episodes!
