Interactive world generation requires models to follow successive commands while preserving relevant history and action consequences. We present Hy-Nomas, a video world model with an 8B diffusion backbone that supports free-form text instructions and continuous camera control across multiple interaction turns. It generates variable-length segments conditioned on current inputs and cached history. Our central design aligns structured video captions with action-aware causal attention: descriptive context remains accessible across segments, while action instructions are restricted to their intended temporal windows. A vision-language Prompt Enhancer (PE) translates user requests and multimodal interaction histories into structured conditions for the next segment. A multi-stage curriculum progressively introduces causal generation, text interaction, camera control, and training on model-generated histories, followed by diffusion distillation. In human evaluation, Hy-Nomas shows superior performance over existing world models. We release model weights, code and benchmarks, together with a lightweight adaptation workflow, to support reproducible research on interactive world generation.

Multimodal Mathematical Reasoning (MMR) has recently attracted increasing attention for its capability to solve mathematical problems involving both textual and visual modalities. However, current models still face significant challenges in real-world visual math tasks, often misinterpreting diagrams, failing to align mathematical symbols with visual evidence, or producing inconsistent reasoning steps. Moreover, existing evaluations mainly focus on checking final answers rather than verifying the correctness or executability of each intermediate step. A growing body of recent research addresses these issues by integrating structured perception, explicit alignment, and verifiable reasoning within unified frameworks.To establish a clear roadmap for understanding and comparing different MMR approaches, we systematically review them around four fundamental questions: (1) What to extract from multimodal inputs, (2) How to represent and align textual and visual information, (3) How to perform the reasoning, and (4) How to evaluate the correctness of the overall reasoning process. Finally, we discuss open challenges and share our thoughts on future research directions.

While Vision–language models (VLMs) interpret text-rich images effectively, they struggle with reasoning across long, multi-page documents. We present \textbf{A}ctive \mathbf{L}ong \mathbf{D}ocum\mathbf{E}nt \mathbf{N}avigation (ALDEN), a multi-turn reinforcement learning framework that fine-tunes VLMs as interactive agents capable of actively navigating long, visually rich documents rather than passive readers. ALDEN features a novel fetch action that allows direct page indexing, complementing the classic \textbf{search} action and better exploiting document structure. To ensure training efficiency and stability, we introduce a rule-based cross-level reward for dense supervision and a visual-semantic anchoring mechanism utilizing dual-path KL-divergence constraints. We train ALDEN on a curated corpus built from open-source datasets where trivial samples are filtered, and queries are rewritten to incentivize multi-turn navigation and fetch usage. Empirically, ALDEN achieves state-of-the-art results on five long-document benchmarks, offering a more accurate and efficient path for long-document understanding.
