CyclicJudge: Mitigating Judge Bias Efficiently in LLM-based Evaluation

Ziyi Zhu, Olivier Tieleman, Alexey Bukhtiyarov, Jinghong Chen

原文摘要

LLM-as-judge evaluation has become standard practice for open-ended model assessment; however, judges exhibit systematic biases that cannot be averaged out by increasing the number of scenarios or generations. These biases are often similar in magnitude to the model differences that benchmarks are designed to detect, resulting in unreliable rankings when single-judge evaluations are used. We introduce a variance decomposition that partitions benchmark score variance into scenario, generation, judge, and residual components. Based on this analysis, CyclicJudge, a round-robin assignment of judges to scenarios, is demonstrated to be the optimal strategy for a fixed judge panel and judge-call budget: it cancels the average additive judge offsets while matching the cost of single-judge evaluation. Empirical results on MT-Bench and MindEval validate the effectiveness of CyclicJudge as predicted, across both general-purpose and domain-specific evaluation settings, reducing benchmark score variance and stabilizing the resulting model ranking.

DIAL: Direct Iterative Adversarial Learning for Realistic Multi-Turn Dialogue Simulation

Ziyi Zhu, Olivier Tieleman, Caitlin A. Stamatis, Luka Smyth, Thomas D. Hull, Daniel R. Cahn, Jinghong Chen, Matteo Malgaroli

原文摘要

Realistic user simulation is crucial for training and evaluating multi-turn dialogue systems, yet creating simulators that accurately replicate human behavior remains a significant challenge. An effective simulator must expose the failure modes of the systems under evaluation. This work introduces Direct Iterative Adversarial Learning (DIAL), an adversarial framework that iteratively enhances user simulator realism through a competitive dynamic between a generator (user simulator) and a discriminator. When applied to mental health support, a domain characterized by diverse failure types and a critical dependence on realistic user behavior for failure detection, DIAL restores lexical diversity diminished by supervised fine-tuning and drastically reduces discriminator accuracy. The resulting simulator exhibits a strong correlation between simulated and real failure occurrence rates while maintaining low distributional divergence of failure modes. These findings indicate that DIAL is a promising method for developing realistic user simulators in multi-turn dialogue, facilitating reliable and cost-effective system evaluation prior to deployment.

On the Generalization Limitation of On-Policy Distillation for Post-RL Consolidation

Yichen Wang, Yufa Zhou, Siqi Zhu, Haozheng Luo, Jingzhi Bao, Zhichao Liu, Zijun Wei

原文摘要

Multi-teacher on-policy distillation (MOPD) extends on-policy distillation (OPD) to consolidate capabilities from multiple teachers. Although prior work reports near-perfect in-distribution (IND) distillation performance, we find that this can mask incomplete capability consolidation beyond the supervised distribution. A preliminary study on synthetic reasoning shows that OPD does not fully transfer teachers' generalization capabilities. We then extend this investigation to real-world tasks, evaluating extrapolative and compositional generalization across mathematical reasoning, coding, agent, and long-context capabilities using Qwen3 models. Across extrapolative settings, OPD and MOPD reach 96.04-102.73% of their teachers' IND scores. Yet their out-of-distribution (OOD) scores remain 2.45-16.25% below the base model's. Across three compositional settings, MOPD improves IND performance over the base model, but its performance on composed tasks as OOD remains 18.19-24.34% below that of the best teachers. To understand these gaps, we examine teacher capability and data coverage as two potential bottlenecks. Jointly alleviating these bottlenecks eliminates OOD forgetting in our experiments and suggests the potential for generalization beyond the teacher. (M)OPD also reduces OOD forgetting on average relative to its reinforcement learning (RL) baselines. Analysis of the associated update geometry reveals smaller and more spectrally concentrated updates on average than those of the RL baselines, along with greater shared update structure under MOPD. Motivated by these findings, we propose geometry-based patching and base-preserving replay to improve OOD performance while largely preserving IND performance. Our findings identify a blind spot in capability consolidation via (M)OPD, highlighting the need for algorithms that explicitly support OOD retention and generalization.

Sedentary Behavior Classification for Wearable Sensors with a CNN-BiLSTM Model

Yuliang Chen, Weiwei Shi, Rong Zablocki, Animesh Kumar, Jordan A. Carlson, Sheri J. Hartman, Mikael Anne Greenwood-Hickman, Paul R. Hibbing 等 13 位作者

原文摘要

Accurate detection of sedentary behavior is important for studying health risks related to prolonged sitting, but posture-based classification remains challenging with wearable sensors, especially at the wrist. We study whether a deep learning model trained on hip-worn accelerometer data can transfer to wrist-worn accelerometer data for sitting versus non-sitting classification. We use CHAP, a CNN-BiLSTM model originally developed for hip accelerometers, and evaluate its zero-shot performance on wrist data as well as its adaptation through finetuning with varying amounts of labeled wrist data. Experiments are conducted on the iWatch dataset with ground-truth posture labels derived from wearable cameras. The hip-trained model performs strongly on hip data without retraining, but accuracy drops on wrist data due to sensor placement shift. Finetuning CHAP provides consistent advantages over transformer models trained from scratch. These findings suggest that hip-based pretraining provides a useful starting point for wrist deployment, while highlighting the need for wrist-specific adaptation to handle higher signal variability.

VirtualTrialHarness: Coordinating Agentic Operationalization of Virtual Trial Protocols Across Complex Clinical Schemas

Pengze Li, Jingna Feng, Yue Yu, Yining Wu, Xinyue Hu, Jie Lin, Avanti Bhandarkar, Cui Tao

原文摘要

Virtual trials use routinely collected clinical data to evaluate treatment strategies, but translating a study protocol into an executable analysis requires determining how clinical concepts and study requirements should be represented in the available data and applied consistently across the workflow. These decisions depend on local data representations and operational conventions and can involve source selection, patient and encounter identity, linkage, and temporal interpretation. Here we introduce VirtualTrialHarness (VTHarness), an agent framework that coordinates virtual-trial operationalization by selecting reusable procedural skills for each workflow stage and uses explicit contracts to maintain consistent study decisions across stages. We also introduce VTBenchmark for evaluating source selection and cohort construction. Across three complex synthetic environments, VTHarness successfully produced all required cohort outputs matching the references in 95.1% of workflows after requirement clarification, compared with 60.4% using retrieval from the same procedural corpus. Procedural skills improved source recovery across three language models and increased source overlap with analyst code in 13 Mayo Clinic cases. Site-specific adaptation enabled reference-matched cohort execution across eight MIMIC-IV tasks. Within the Mayo Clinic Virtual Trials Program, the framework supported investigator review of cohort construction and endpoint analysis. These findings support coordinating procedural guidance with workflow decisions to improve virtual-trial implementation across complex clinical schemas.

Your Trust, Your Terms: A General Paradigm for Near-Instant Cross-Chain Transfer

Di Wu, Jingyu Liu, Xuechao Wang, Jian Liu, Yingjie Xue, Kui Ren, Chun Chen

原文摘要

Cross-chain transactions today remain slow, costly, and fragmented. Existing custodial exchanges expose users to counterparty and centralization risks, while non-custodial liquidity bridges suffer from capital inefficiency and slow settlement; critically, neither approach guarantees users a unilateral path to recover assets if the infrastructure fails. We introduce the Delegated Ownership Transfer (DOT) paradigm, which decouples key ownership from value ownership to enable secure, high-performance cross-chain payments. In DOT, a user deposits funds into a sandboxed on-chain Temporary Account (TA) (value ownership) while delegating its private key (key ownership) to an abstract Trusted Entity (TE). Payments and swaps are thus reframed as near-instant, off-chain ownership handoffs. Security follows from dual guarantees: the TE's exclusive control prevents double-spending, while a pre-signed, unilateral recovery transaction ensures users retain ultimate authority over their assets. Building on this foundation, we design a novel off-chain atomic swap that executes optimistically in near real time and remains fair even if the TE fails. We formalize the security of DOT in the Universal Composability framework and present two concrete instantiations: a high-performance design based on Trusted Execution Environments (TEEs) and a cryptographically robust variant leveraging threshold cryptography. Our geo-distributed prototype shows that cross-chain payments complete in under 16.70 ms and atomic swaps in under 33.09 ms, with costs fully decoupled from Layer-1 gas fees. These results provide a practical blueprint for building secure, efficient, and interoperable cross-chain payment systems.

Automatic tools can now generate whole-brain MRI parcellations at cohort scale, but generated-label releases often provide little evidence about which cases are reliable enough to reuse. We introduce OpenBrain, a confidence-aware release of 35,838 provenance-verified OpenNeuro T1w cases from 607 source datasets. OpenBrain is organized as an auditable case-record release rather than a directory of standalone segmentation files: each record links a primary parcellation, two committee parcellations, source/license provenance, raw QC-7 measurements, percentile risks, a combined risk score R, and a confidence tier. QC-7 is a reference-free reliability panel over label geometry, image-label consistency, and committee disagreement, so users can filter, weight, audit, or re-threshold generated labels without rerunning inference. We evaluate this released evidence under a frozen protocol. Across external cohorts, lower QC-7 risk corresponds to higher generated-label quality; in fixed-budget training, lower-risk selections improve paired macro Dice over random selection by +3.2 to +3.7 percentage points. OpenBrain also exposes raw axes, committee outputs, provenance, and datasheet documentation, so confidence claims remain inspectable after download. It does not turn generated labels into manual annotations or clinical-grade segmentations. Its contribution is a large open generated-parcellation substrate, a reusable case-level risk-evidence layer, and an external validation protocol for release-time QC.

查看原文摘要

AI systems now write long and difficult mathematical proofs, and checking their step-by-step validity is becoming a bottleneck. A learned verifier could check proofs cheaply, but training one requires a correctness label on every step, and such labels are hard to obtain for open-ended proofs. Existing methods take them from human annotators, which is costly, or derive them from final answers, which proofs do not have, and formalizing each proof in Lean requires expert effort. We introduce LeanPRM, a framework that uses the Lean proof assistant to create step-level labels for natural-language proofs. A model writes a natural-language proof together with a paired formal proof, without feedback from Lean. Lean then labels every step, and a second model discards failures caused only by the formal syntax, so that the negative labels mark errors in the mathematics. LeanPRM contains 10,634 proofs with 152K labeled steps and no human annotation. A Qwen3-4B verifier trained on LeanPRM raises exact step-label accuracy on a held-out set of 200 proofs (LeanPRM-Bench) from 48.2 to 74.7, as opposed to 60.3 when the same base model is trained on PRM800K. It also selects better proofs in best-of-N selection on IMO-level problems, and outperforms the PRM800K-trained verifier on three of four external verification benchmarks. Training on LeanPRM improves verifiers at every size from 0.6B to 8B parameters on LeanPRM-Bench, Hard2Verify and IMO-GradingBench. Given the labels need no human annotation, LeanPRM can grow with the supply of formal statements, offering a path to step-level feedback on AI-generated proofs that are hard for humans to check.

查看原文摘要

Skill memories encode past experiences as textual prompts to improve reinforcement learning (RL) for self-evolving agents. Complementing RL, On-Policy Self-Distillation (OPSD) provides dense, fine-grained supervision to internalize knowledge from skill-guided trajectories and accelerate policy learning. However, self-generated memories often contain noisy supervision and functionally entangled, redundant, or conflicting knowledge, making direct distillation difficult. Under limited training budgets, these issues can hinder knowledge internalization and even degrade performance. To address this problem, we propose MDSKILL, a multi-view distillation approach for skill memory internalization. MDSKILL organizes skill memories into three complementary functional views (state grounding, action planning, and execution control) and selects high-quality skills using dynamic metrics to construct view-specific and integrated reasoning branches. OPSD then transfers and consolidates complementary experiential knowledge across these branches into a shared policy, enabling efficient skill internalization and continuous agent self-evolution. We evaluate MDSKILL on three agent benchmarks against RL, skill-augmented, and self-distillation baselines that do not rely on stronger external teacher models. Without additional computational overhead, MDSKILL improves upon SOTA performance by up to 7.1% and 8.1% on ALFWorld and WebShop. Extensive ablations and evolution analyses further validate its effectiveness in knowledge internalization and policy improvement. The code is available at https://anonymous.4open.science/r/MDSKILL-CF53.

CONFIRM: Governing Scientific Reporting for Trustworthy Agentic Neuroimaging

Yuxiang Wei, Lijing Zhu, Qizhen Lan, Yanteng Zhang, Vince D. Calhoun

原文摘要

Large language model (LLM) agents can autonomously run neuroimaging analyses from research questions to reported findings. Existing agentic systems use tools to check that code runs and reported values match its output, but rely on LLM judgment to decide which results warrant scientific reporting. We show that LLM judges endorse site-confounded findings even when the confound is presented as evidence. We present \textbf{CONFIRM}, a framework that separates running an analysis from deciding which findings to report. CONFIRM encodes each hypothesis as a machine-readable, pre-specified analysis plan that fixes the claim and its pass criteria before computing results. It then filters results through five deterministic gates (search history and multiplicity, confounds, power, analytic stability, and replication) under three configurable reporting standards, from least to most demanding: \textit{Screen}, \textit{Replicate}, and \textit{Full}. Failed claims receive diagnoses that guide follow-up analyses. To evaluate reporting decisions at the claim level, we introduce \textbf{NeuroClaimBench}, comprising 489 executable neuroimaging claims with frozen data, including literature-supported findings and 150 controls designed to violate individual methodological requirements. On NeuroClaimBench, CONFIRM falsely supports at most 3\% of controls, compared with 23--38\% for the baselines, while recovering up to 61\% of literature-supported claims. When auditing an existing agent, CONFIRM reduces false support on controls from 23\% to 0\% while retaining the agent's literature-supported claims. Its diagnostic feedback also produces more supported revisions than Self-Refine with fewer LLM calls. Together, CONFIRM and NeuroClaimBench show that basing reporting decisions on pre-specified analysis plans and deterministic gates is essential for trustworthy autonomous scientific discovery.

G$^2$TR: Generation-Guided Visual Token Reduction for Separate-Encoder Unified Multimodal Models

Junxian Li, Kai Liu, Zizhong Ding, Zhixin Wang, Zhikai Chen, Renjing Pei, Yulun Zhang

原文摘要

The development of separate-encoder Unified multimodal models (UMMs) comes with a rapidly growing inference cost due to dense visual token processing. In this paper, we focus on understanding-side visual token reduction for improving the efficiency of separate-encoder UMMs. While this topic has been widely studied for MLLMs, existing methods typically rely on attention scores, text-image similarity and so on, implicitly assuming that the final objective is discriminative reasoning. This assumption does not hold for UMMs, where understanding-side visual tokens must also preserve the model's capabilities for editing images. We propose G$^2$TR, a generation-guided visual token reduction framework for separate-encoder UMMs. Our key insight is that the generation branch provides a task-agnostic signal for identifying understanding-side visual tokens that are not only semantically relevant but also important for latent-space image reconstruction and generation. G$^2$TR estimates token importance from consistency with VAE latent, performs balanced token selection, and merges redundant tokens into retained representatives to reduce information loss. The method is training-free, plug-and-play, and applied only after the understanding encoding stage, making it compatible with existing UMM inference pipelines. Experiments on image understanding and editing benchmarks show that G$^2$TR substantially reduces visual tokens and prefill computation by 1.94x while maintaining both reasoning accuracy and editing quality, outperforming baselines on almost all benchmarks.

LLM4Robot-Bench: How Far Can GPT-6 Astra Go in Robotic Manipulation? A Hierarchical, Paired Sim-Real Benchmark

Haibao Yu, Jiaqi Meng, Zijian Zhang, Bowen Jing, Lei Yang, Yue Hu, Chenchen Ge, Yiming Hou 等 19 位作者

原文摘要

We introduce LLM4Robot-Bench, a hierarchical, paired Sim-Real benchmark for evaluating physical interaction capabilities in contact-rich manipulation. Its 16 household tasks span three cumulative levels: contact selection and geometric alignment (L1), force regulation within sustained contact (L2), and coordinated contact reconfiguration and force regulation (L3). Each task is instantiated in physically and visually matched simulated and real-world environments, with shared task definitions and success criteria. We evaluate GPT-6 Astra zero-shot with three trials per task in each environment. Real-world success rates decline from 80.0% at L1 to 47.6% at L2 and 0.0% at L3, with corresponding simulation rates of 66.7%, 47.6%, and 0.0%. Ten of the 16 tasks have identical success counts across environments; the remaining six differ by one success out of three trials. Across both environments, recurring difficulties in spatial reasoning, contact selection, force regulation, and coordination often prevent local physical progress from accumulating into task completion. These findings characterize Astra's observed capability boundary across increasing interaction demands and, for this model, support matched simulation as a repeatable, scalable testbed for studying the sustained, coordinated physical interactions that limit reliable manipulation.

HiLo-WAM: Decoupling Long-Horizon Task Evolution and Local Dynamics in World Action Models

Xingyu Wang, Yanjiang Guo, Zhijing Ding, Jiaxin Fang, Zeyu Lai, Jiayu Dong, Weikang Wan, Jianyu Chen 等 10 位作者

原文摘要

World Action Models (WAMs) improve robotic manipulation by jointly modeling visual dynamics and robot actions. However, most existing WAMs model dense short-horizon visual dynamics, capturing local interactions but providing limited long-range task context. Extending prediction horizons increases uncertainty and computation while entangling task-level evolution with fine-grained local dynamics, obscuring their dependencies and distinct roles in action generation. We propose HiLo-WAM, which decouples long-horizon task evolution from local visual dynamics while jointly modeling their interaction with robot actions. A sparse long-horizon visual stream captures historical task context and future evolution, while a dense local dynamics visual stream models short-horizon robot-object interactions. The two streams operate at different temporal scales within a unified dual-DiT architecture and guide actions through structured cross-stream attention. Progressive inference further reduces unnecessary computation through stream-wise partial denoising, joint denoising, and dynamic skipping. Experiments demonstrate strong long-horizon manipulation performance: HiLo-WAM achieves a 93.70% average success rate on RoboTwin 2.0 and a 17.43 progress score on RoboDojo long-horizon tasks, with robust in-domain and OOD performance on the Fourier GR-3 robot. Ablations confirm the complementary contributions of long-horizon task evolution and local interaction dynamics, while temporal-scale analyses highlight the importance of balancing temporal coverage and resolution. Progressive inference further achieves a 2.93x speedup while improving performance.

原文摘要

With the increasing importance of mobile camera quality in modern smartphones, growing attention has been directed toward computational photography and advanced image signal processing (ISP) algorithms aimed at enhancing various perceptual attributes of captured images. This creates a need for efficient deep learning models for this problem that are not only performant but can also be deployed on constrained mobile hardware. In this Mobile AI challenge, we address this problem and propose the participants to design fast solutions that can reconstruct RGB photos from RAW Bayer camera data while running on popular smartphone GPUs from Qualcomm and Arm. For this, the participants were provided with a large-scale Fujifilm UltraISP dataset consisting of RAW-RGB image pairs captured with the Sony IMX586 Quad Bayer mobile sensor and a professional 102MP medium format FujiFilm GFX100 camera. The runtime of all models was evaluated on the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 and Dimensity 9500 chipsets with the Adreno and Mali GPUs, respectively. Top solutions proposed in this challenge are able to reconstruct high-quality 5MP RGB image from raw data on both platforms under 100 milliseconds. A comprehensive description of the models developed in the challenge is provided in this paper.

ProAlign: Progressive Positional and Prototype-Guided Alignment for Aerial-Ground Person Re-Identification

Qiao Li, Jing Chen, Cong Wu, Kun He, Ruiying Du, Lei Tan

原文摘要

Aerial-Ground Person Re-Identification (AG-ReID) aims to match pedestrian images captured by unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) and ground-based surveillance cameras. The task remains highly challenging due to severe viewpoint discrepancies, frequent occlusions, and substantial domain gaps between aerial and ground imagery. Beyond these observable factors, existing methods often overlook two fundamental structural issues: cumulative positional drift during hierarchical feature extraction and semantic inconsistency across cross-view feature distributions. To address these challenges, we propose ProAlign, a Progressive Positional and Prototype-Guided Alignment Network for AG-ReID. ProAlign comprises two key components: a Layer-wise Progressive Positional Embedding (LPPE) module and a View-Aware Prototype Contrastive Learning (PCL) module. LPPE performs adaptive positional calibration throughout transformer layers by employing conditional positional encoding in shallow layers to mitigate local spatial distortions, while introducing learnable static positional embeddings in deeper layers to reinforce global semantic priors. Meanwhile, PCL maintains view-specific aerial and ground prototypes for each identity and enforces cross-view semantic consistency via a dual-prototype contrastive objective. Extensive experiments on CARGO and two real-world AG-ReID benchmarks demonstrate the effectiveness of ProAlign, achieving state-of-the-art overall retrieval performance on CARGO with improvements of 1.60% in Rank-1 accuracy and 5.01% in mAP over the strongest competing methods.

Scaling Laws For Data-Constrained Dense Retrieval

Bowen Fu, Jingtao Zhan

原文摘要

Dense retrieval models are typically obtained by fine-tuning pretrained language models on supervised retrieval data, where high-quality annotations or interaction logs are often limited and reused across many epochs. This data-constrained regime differs from the abundant-data setting assumed by standard scaling laws, making it unclear how the best attainable retrieval performance changes with model size and unique fine-tuning data. We study this question through the minimum achievable evaluation loss (MAEL), defined as the lowest evaluation loss reached during training under fixed model-size and data-budget constraints. We first show that learning-rate choices strongly affect optimization trajectories but have little effect on the final attainable MAEL: after rescaling the optimization-step axis, learning curves collapse across learning rates, and CKA analysis shows that checkpoints reaching MAEL learn highly similar representations. We then fine-tune 35 BERT-family dense retrievers on MS MARCO subsets and find that MAEL is accurately described by a simple multiplicative power law over non-embedding parameters and unique samples, outperforming commonly used additive scaling formulations. We further derive a scaling law for the training step at which MAEL is reached and show that optimal weight decay follows an approximately invariant EMA timescale, yielding lower MAEL and stronger retrieval performance on both in-domain and out-of-domain benchmarks. Finally, combining loss and step scaling suggests that, in our observed regime, increasing pretrained model size is approximately 1.46 times as fine-tuning-compute-efficient as increasing unique in-domain data for reducing MAEL.

Behind Video Generation: Observations and Insights on Multimodal Understanding from Kling

Kling Team, Dong Chen, Jialu Chen, Xinlong Chen, Yifan Dai, Haotian Dong, Binzong Geng, Yushuo Guan 等 53 位作者

原文摘要

Video generation has progressed from isolated clips to coherent short-form audiovisual sequences, and the bottleneck is shifting from rendering to semantic control. This report summarizes the observations and insights on multimodal understanding gained from successive generations of Kling. We argue that generation quality is the projection of multimodal understanding through the entire data--conditioning--alignment--evaluation chain, and we examine this chain module by module. Kling-MLLM, a shared multimodal foundation model that unifies image, video, audio, synchronized audio--video, and interleaved inputs, is specialized for each downstream module. Because a DiT is trained on far fewer training samples than a language model, we treat captioning as a semantic contract that maximizes description density, and extend it to reference-grounded captioning that makes reference bindings explicit. Prompt enhancement translates user intent into this caption distribution: basic PE is derived from captions of compelling videos and refined with text-level and generator-in-the-loop reinforcement learning, while agentic PE refines the story and retrieves compelling examples. We show that a reliable text encoder comes from perceptual training rather than from stronger language ability, and that candidates can be screened from text alone before end-to-end training. Reward modeling pairs a general reward model for explainable, localized critiques with a decision reward model for fast multidimensional scoring, treating perceptual bandwidth as a first-class design parameter. Finally, we review task-specific automatic evaluation, focusing on protocols that expose scoring shortcuts and help trace failures to their upstream source. We hope these lessons offer practical guidance for building the understanding stack behind controllable video generation.

Trusting Imagined Futures: Auditing Imagined Rewards for VLA Post-Training

Zicheng Kong, Zhenbo Xu, Haoyan Zhang, Jinghan Yang, Zhenzhen Li, Yiwei Ru, Liuyu Xiang, WanTing Xu 等 10 位作者

原文摘要

Video world models enable candidate actions to be evaluated through imagined outcomes, but high predicted rewards can favor trajectories with poor execution quality. We introduce Trusting Imagined Futures (TIF), an offline supervision selection method for vision-language-action (VLA) post-training that audits predicted rewards using execution feedback. A multidimensional reward model predicts a utility score for candidate ranking and five dimensions of execution quality. An auditor uses reward predictions and uncertainty to identify overestimation patterns learned from paired imagined videos and real executions. TIF accepts the candidate with the highest predicted utility when its advantage over the existing trajectory exceeds a margin and its audit risk passes a threshold; otherwise, it retains the existing supervision. The retained real trajectories then supervise behavior cloning. Across four LIBERO suites and three training seeds, TIF achieves a mean success rate of 76.25%, improving over training on the existing trajectories by 3.00 percentage points with the same trajectory count and training budget. Adding audit gating yields 1.47 percentage points with the reward model and advantage margin held fixed. The gains persist against advantage ranking and logistic regression risk selection at matched replacement counts. On recorded videos from three real robot tasks, TIF increases clean completion among selected trajectories from 58.33% to 70.00% across 60 candidate pools.

Auditing Provenance Sensitivity in LLM Agent Action Selection

Junchi Liao, Qiang Huang, Rui Qian, Xutao Mao, Juntao Cheng, Kangning Cui, Yu Li, Jingyu Sun 等 9 位作者

原文摘要

LLM agents choose tools and arguments from context that mixes user requests, tool outputs, retrieved records, memory, and untrusted text. Evidence can be relevant without being authorized to determine a decision, so a correct action need not be grounded only in permitted evidence. We introduce a target-specific authorization audit that labels context factors separately for each tool and argument target. Its primary test holds the task, proposition, position, and policy fixed while changing only the proposition's source authority. We then test behavior when valid evidence is weakened and use context-subset interactions as a secondary localization diagnostic. Across 450 controlled next-action tasks and multiple open-weight LLM families, trusted and untrusted variants produce different actions in 5.4 percent of competing cases versus 1.7 percent of supporting cases. Under controlled degradation, unauthorized competition is retained in a full-correct, mixed-error, clean-correct pattern in 2.4 percent of comparisons, with a 95 percent confidence interval from 2.1 to 3.0 percent. These are controlled stress-set rates, not deployment prevalence. The models respond to textual source-authority cues, but this does not prevent untrusted evidence from influencing their actions.

DGC-Net: Cross-Modal Dynamic Routing with Global-Guided Compensation in Multimodal Sentiment Analysis

Linan Zhu, Huaijing Wu, Xiao Han, Yuhao Wang

原文摘要

User-generated videos, including opinion vlogs and video reviews, provide a rich source of people's attitudes toward products, services, and social topics. Understanding the sentiment expressed by speakers is important for analyzing online opinions, as transcripts alone may not capture the attitude and intensity conveyed through vocal tone and facial expressions. Multimodal sentiment analysis (MSA) addresses this need by integrating textual, acoustic, and visual cues. However, these cues are often subtle, noisy, and inconsistent across modalities. Existing local affective cue modeling methods typically operate within individual modalities and overlook global contexts from other modalities. This may cause cross-modal affective cue inconsistency. Hierarchical global-local fusion methods integrate global semantics with fine-grained local affective cues. However, they commonly determine the relative contributions of the two representations implicitly, preventing the global-local contributions from adapting to the sample-dependent reliability of local cues and resulting in either insufficient use of informative local cues or excessive interference from unreliable ones. To address these issues, we propose DGC-Net, a Dynamic Gating and Global-Guided Compensation Network for MSA. DGC-Net mitigates cross-modal affective cue inconsistency through cross-modal contribution-aware dynamic expert routing. This mechanism uses auxiliary global contexts to guide local expert selection. Moreover, global-guided dynamic compensation fusion alleviates sample-dependent global-local contribution imbalance while preserving global semantic as the primary anchor and adaptively incorporating expert-refined local cues. Experiments on five multimodal benchmark datasets demonstrate the effectiveness and general applicability of DGC-Net, and ablation studies verify the contribution of each proposed component.

Feeling of Knowing in Large Language Models

Zichuan Fu, Xian Wu, Jingtong Gao, Wenlin Zhang, Jiaxuan Li, Binhao Wang, Yimin Deng, Guojing Li 等 12 位作者

原文摘要

Post-training updates change what large language models (LLMs) can answer, but may leave their answerability judgments misaligned. We study this knowledge-judgment desynchronization through functional feeling of knowing (FoK), which supports selective generation, retrieval triggering, and model routing without implying subjective experience. We propose two trainable channels: a knowledge channel that changes answerability and a FoK channel that judges the current knowledge state. Three stages train them: on-policy supervised fine-tuning (OP-SFT) updates knowledge from corrected on-policy answers; knowledge-delta FoK training (K$Δ$-FT) adapts judgments across intermediate knowledge states; and FoK-guided policy optimization (FGPO) trains the subsequent answer or explanation. Factual-QA experiments, cross-dataset evaluation, and three sequential updates show that explicit FoK alignment improves judgment quality on updated knowledge. MMLU and ARC-Easy separately assess capability preservation.

TaoMate-FVSR: Audio-Guided Facial Video Restoration

Xinyang Li, Zeran Xu, Jingna Sun, Qijun Gan, Chenwei Zhang, Meiguang Jin, Junfeng Ma

原文摘要

Low-quality facial videos suffer from missing fine details, while AI-generated videos may additionally contain implausible teeth and lip movements that do not match the speech. Restoring the mouth region is particularly challenging: enhancing existing details can preserve structural errors, whereas regenerating them risks changing facial identity and articulation. We propose an audio-guided facial video restoration framework that reconstructs unreliable mouth details and aligns lip movements with the speech while preserving facial identity and temporal consistency. Built on a video diffusion transformer, our framework mixes input video latents with noise to retain useful source information while allowing corrupted details to be regenerated. Audio guides lip movements, reference images constrain facial appearance, and previously generated frames promote temporal consistency. We train the model in two stages, first learning visual restoration from degraded images and videos, then learning audio-guided lip correction from degraded dubbed videos. The resulting model supports both restoration with the original audio and visual dubbing with replacement audio. On talking-head restoration benchmarks, our method achieves the lowest LPIPS and DISTS and the best lip synchronization scores among the evaluated restoration baselines. Qualitative results on AI-generated videos further show improvements in facial detail and mouth-region appearance, including clearer tooth boundaries and lip contours.

LoRIF: Pushing the Scalability Frontier of Training Data Attribution

Shuangqi Li, Hieu Le, Jingyi Xu, Mathieu Salzmann

原文摘要

Training data attribution (TDA) identifies which training examples most influenced a model's prediction. Influence function methods are a theoretically grounded family of TDA methods and exploit gradients. To overcome the scalability challenge arising from gradient computation, the most popular strategy is random projection (e.g., TRAK, LoGRA). However, this still faces two bottlenecks when scaling to large training sets and high-quality attribution: \emph{(i)} storing and loading projected per-example gradients for all $N$ training examples, where query latency is dominated by I/O; and \emph{(ii)} forming the $D \times D$ inverse Hessian approximation, which costs $O(D^2)$ memory. Both bottlenecks scale with the projection dimension $D$, yet increasing $D$ is necessary for attribution quality -- creating a quality--scalability tradeoff. We introduce \textbf{LoRIF} (\textbf{Lo}w-\textbf{R}ank \textbf{I}nfluence \textbf{F}unctions), which exploits low-rank structures of gradient to address both bottlenecks. First, we store rank-$c$ factors of projected per-example gradients rather than full matrices, reducing storage and query-time I/O from $O(D)$ to $O(c\sqrt{D})$ per layer per sample. Second, we use truncated SVD with the Woodbury identity to approximate the inverse Hessian term in an $r$-dimensional subspace, reducing memory from $O(D^2)$ to $O(Dr)$. On models from 0.1B to 70B parameters trained on datasets with millions of examples, LoRIF achieves up to 20$\times$ storage reduction and query-time speedup compared to LoGRA, while matching or exceeding its attribution quality. LoRIF makes gradient-based TDA practical at frontier scale. Code is available at https://github.com/doub7e/LoRIF.

TactiNavi: Serving and Revising an LLM Game Coach with Explicit Strategy Conditions

Qi Liu, Xiaoyang Yuan, Zhuomeng Zhang, Yubin Ruan, Xinyi Mou, Wenjin Wang, Hanying Jiao, Di Wu 等 12 位作者

原文摘要

A deployed LLM coaching agent answers requests whose correct response depends on player state and game version, so advice that is right for one player can be wrong for the next. We describe TactiNavi, the serving system behind the LLM coach of a commercial open-world game, which makes strategy applicability an explicit artifact shared by offline compilation, online execution, failure diagnosis, and release. An offline compiler turns versioned game evidence and expert guidance into strategy packages with explicit prerequisites, the serving plane evaluates those prerequisites as three-valued conditions over structured player state and records decision traces, and a control plane uses the resulting condition-rule dependencies to validate revisions on held-out traffic before release. In a retrospective evaluation of 1,122 logged coaching turns from three deployment periods, condition-bearing packages raise correctness from 57.9% to 82.0% over atomic facts and reduce strategy misapplication under changed player state from 18.1% to 10.4%, while trace-based claim verification reaches 86.4% precision at a median reply latency of 2.07 s. The deployment also showed that most apparent fixes are generation noise, because an unchanged-system rerun recovers 38.4% of failing turns and only one of 15 shipped revision units passes the release checks retrospectively. We distill these results into lessons on treating applicability as a first-class serving object, sizing traces for later diagnosis, and building the null model into the release path.

iMED: A Multi-Endoscope Dataset for Surgical 3D Perception

Sierra Bonilla, Fengyi Jiang, Chinedu Nwoye, Jingpei Lu, Kailey Reardon, Humphrey W. Chow, Francisco Vasconcelos, Sophia Bano 等 10 位作者

原文摘要

We introduce iMED, the first synchronized multi-endoscope dataset for robot-assisted minimally invasive surgery (RAMIS), designed to address a fundamental limitation in surgical vision benchmarking: the absence of independent held-out viewpoints. Existing surgical datasets capture single-trajectory sequences from a single endoscope, making it impossible to distinguish geometric generalization from photometric interpolation along a narrow forward-facing path. iMED provides 340 sequences ~170K synchronized timepoints with 4 views per timepoint) recorded simultaneously from two independent stereo endoscopes across ex vivo, postmortem, and live surgical settings, spanning 14 specimens with diverse anatomical regions and motion regimes. The dataset includes calibrated camera intrinsics, ArUco-based frame-wise pose estimates with uncertainty quantification, instrument segmentation masks, and rich clinical metadata. Using a train-on-one-endoscope, test-on-another evaluation protocol, we benchmark 23 state-of-the-art methods across rigid and deformable novel view synthesis, pose estimation, feature matching, and monocular depth estimation. Our experiments show that methods relying primarily on photometric supervision degrade substantially under this held-out-endoscope setting, while methods with explicit geometric regularization are more robust across views in our benchmark. Notably, large-scale foundation models transfer surprisingly well to surgical imagery, often outperforming domain-specific models, suggesting pitfalls in current fine-tuning protocols. iMED establishes a new evaluation protocol for geometric generalization in surgical vision.

Auto-Research Agent on MSA Organization to Improve Protein-Protein Complex Structure Prediction

Zilu Zhang, Jing Bao, Lifeng Qiao, Sheng Xu, Qiantai Feng, Siqi Sun, Yang Yang

原文摘要

Protein-complex structure prediction with AlphaFold 3 depends on MSA content, depth, and cross-chain pairing. Current pipelines apply uniform recipes, typically maximizing depth and pairing by species, yet even whether cross-chain pairing helps AF3 remains contested. We show that the value of both depth and pairing is strongly target-dependent, so no single recipe is optimal across interfaces. We introduce an autonomous agent that treats a frozen AF3 as a black-box experimental instrument. For each target, the agent formulates biological hypotheses, analyzes and reorganizes the MSA, and iteratively refines sequence selection and pairing using predictor label-free signals alone. On 1{,}015 protein--protein interfaces from three benchmarks released after AF3's training cutoff, the agent improves overall interface DockQ over AF3's default pipeline and fixed MSA recipes on every benchmark, while using on average 60\% fewer MSA sequences than the default. Gains are largest for inter-species heteromers, where species-based pairing is unreliable: mean DockQ increases from 0.465 to 0.612 on FoldBench and from 0.482 to 0.562 on HD439. The improvements arise from both sequence construction and pairing policy, including deliberate non-pairing. These results recast MSA design as a target-specific problem and show that an autonomous agent can adapt it at test time through biological reasoning and self-directed, confidence-guided experimentation.

Rate-Distortion-Perception Tradeoff for Vector Gaussian Sources with Limited Common Randomness: Exact Characterization and Approximate Universality

Wentao Wang, Shuo Shao, Ruibin Li, Jingjing Qian, Jun Chen, Bin Xia

原文摘要

The distortion-rate-common randomness-perception (DRCP) theory characterizes how limited common randomness (CR) improves reconstruction fidelity under perceptual constraints, thereby providing an information-theoretic foundation for generative compression. In this paper, we characterize the DRCP tradeoff for vector Gaussian sources with limited CR under the squared-error distortion measure and the squared Wasserstein-2 perception measure. Specifically, we first establish a generalized reverse waterfilling characterization of globally optimal allocations. Second, we derive an analytical upper bound on the DRCP function through sequential greedy allocation of rate and CR. For fixed rate and CR budgets, the resulting representation is independent of the perception threshold. Finally, we establish its approximate universality through uniform performance guarantees: the achievable distortion exceeds the optimal distortion by at most $2ρ^*\approx0.2897$ times the total source variance, whereas the optimal-to-greedy distortion ratio is at least $η^*\approx0.7517$.

Axion 1.0: Open Agent Foundation Models, Simplified

Yuqi Jia, Yunjie Tian, Jiayu Zheng, Yijun Liang, Jingchen Sun, Mengyu Zhao, Di Fu

原文摘要

We introduce Axion 1.0, a fully open agent foundation model that combines strong and broad agentic capabilities with a remarkably simple training recipe. Axion 1.0 is trained in only three stages: two lightweight supervised fine-tuning stages followed by reinforcement learning, without dedicated mid-training, direct preference optimization (DPO), or on-policy distillation (OPD). The first SFT stage develops strong self-contained reasoning through model-aware data construction, where we synthesize challenging problems and adversarially strengthen them based on the base model's own successful solution strategies. The second stage extends these capabilities to tool-dependent reasoning through a scalable pipeline for constructing diverse and automatically verifiable tasks grounded in real-world data sources and deterministic computation. Finally, reinforcement learning further strengthens long-horizon reasoning and interaction with external tools and environments. Despite this compact training recipe, Axion 1.0 achieves strong performance across a broad suite of agentic benchmarks and is competitive with leading commercial models on several of them. Equally importantly, Axion 1.0 is open beyond model weights: we release the complete recipe, including data construction, generation, filtering, verification, prompts, and training code, enabling the entire development process to be reproduced and extended. Axion 1.0 demonstrates that strong agent foundation models can be both open and simple, offering a practical and reproducible path toward advancing open agentic intelligence.

Making Smell Actionable in Design: Lexicon, Movement Patterns, and Gesture Cards

Anran Feng, Shengyu Gao, Xingyu Zhao, Zhenyu Qian, Jingrui An

原文摘要

Smell is powerful in design, yet it often remains vague and difficult to work with in studios and classrooms. While olfactory HCI has produced devices, toolkits, and scenario-based applications, designers still lack teachable, shareable resources that link smell to bodily action. This paper presents a three-phase research program that makes smell actionable by moving from lived smell experiences to movement patterns and, finally, to gesture resources. We study olfactory-motor mappings and package the results as teachable design representations through a progressively narrowing method: (1) extracting smell-verb-intent relations from user narratives; (2) capturing and clustering embodied enactments into standardized upper-limb trajectory families; and (3) translating these trajectories into gesture card representations for design teaching and ideation through design workshops. We present a three-phase translational framework and empirically derived smell-gesture correspondences that structure the smell-intent-trajectory-gesture pathway, together with reusable assets (lexicon, trajectory atlas, gesture tables, and cards) that support teaching, reuse, and adaptation across contexts.

A Tale of Two Walks: From Kac to KMP and Back

Qian Chen, Jingcheng Liu, Minglong Qin, Leonard J. Schulman, Fang Song, Penghui Yao, Mingnan Zhao

原文摘要

We reveal an unexpected connection between two interacting particle systems: Kac's walk and the Kipnis-Marchioro-Presutti (KMP) process. We first establish a mixing-time analogue of Aldous's conjecture for the KMP process on general graphs: the mixing time of the $t$-particle process on any connected $d$-vertex graph is at most $O(\log d)$ times the corresponding single-particle mixing time, uniformly in $t$. As an application, we improve the mixing-time bound for coordinate hit-and-run on the $n$-dimensional standard simplex from $\widetilde{O}(n^3)$ [KV26] to $O(n\log n)$, while removing the dependence on the initial distribution. We then show that the twirling channel induced by the parallel Kac's walk on the symmetric subspace can be exactly encoded by a Markov chain on partitions, which naturally lifts to a parallel KMP chain on the complete graph. We prove that $O(\log d+\log(1/\varepsilon))$ repetitions of the parallel Kac's walk suffice to approximate Haar twirling on the symmetric subspace of $(\mathbb{C}^d)^{\otimes t}$ to error $\varepsilon$, uniformly in all $t$. Our main technical contribution is a new structural property of KMP-type dynamics: conditional product structure, which holds for both the standard KMP processes on general graphs and the parallel KMP processes on complete graphs. Conditioned on suitable auxiliary randomness, the evolution of the labeled KMP process factorizes into independent single-particle updates. Combining this structure with an exact coupling, we remove the dependence on the number of particles from the mixing bounds for both unlabeled KMP models. This bypasses the $\log(π_{\min}^{-1})$ dependency from spectral-gap arguments, which is often prohibitively large for many-particle systems. Using this framework, we prove mixing bounds that are sharp up to logarithmic factors for both unlabeled KMP models.
