contents Analysis of binary-lens microlensing events typically requires intensive computation because of the multimodal and complex posterior distributions. With the recent development of the JAX-based differentiable binary-lensing modeling package microlux, we present an analysis of two microlensing events with planet/brown-dwarf candidates, KMT-2025-BLG-1314 and KMT-2025-BLG-1392. Both events exhibit the "Close/Wide" degeneracy, and KMT-2025-BLG-1314 suffers from the "Planet/Binary" degeneracy and a recently recognized "Point/Finite" degeneracy among the planetary solutions. For KMT-2025-BLG-1314, the binary mass ratio is $\log q \sim -3.5$ for the planetary solutions and $\log q > -1.5$ for the binary solutions, while for KMT-2025-BLG-1392, we find $\log q \sim -1.3$. We show that for the analysis of KMT-2025-BLG-1314, Hamiltonian Monte Carlo (HMC), enabled by microlux, provides robust parameter inference and outperforms traditional Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) methods in the presence of bimodal posteriors.
