Detecting AI-Generated Content on Social Media with Multi-modal Language Models

Chenyang Yang, Shen Yan, Yibo Yang, Litao Hu, Yuchen Liu, Yuan Zeng, Hanchao Yu, Yinan Zhu 等 16 位作者

原文摘要

Generative AI has enabled the creation of photorealistic images and videos that are increasingly disseminated on social media, often used for spam, misinformation, manipulation, and fraud. Existing AI-generated content (AIGC) detection methods face challenges including poor generalization to new generation models, reliance on single modalities, and lack of interpretable explanations. We present our pipeline that mitigates these issues by continuously curating diverse multi-modal social media data and training a compact vision-language model for detection and explanation. Our model achieves state-of-the-art detection performance on public benchmarks and demonstrates robust detection and explanation capabilities on internal social media datasets across multiple platforms. We deployed our model for post recommendation on social media platforms and observed positive downstream impacts on user engagement, demonstrating that it is feasible to perform effective AIGC detection in dynamic, real-world social media environments.

MinerU2.5: A Decoupled Vision-Language Model for Efficient High-Resolution Document Parsing

Junbo Niu, Zheng Liu, Zhuangcheng Gu, Bin Wang, Linke Ouyang, Zhiyuan Zhao, Tao Chu, Tianyao He 等 59 位作者

原文摘要

We introduce MinerU2.5, a 1.2B-parameter document parsing vision-language model that achieves state-of-the-art recognition accuracy while maintaining exceptional computational efficiency. Our approach employs a coarse-to-fine, two-stage parsing strategy that decouples global layout analysis from local content recognition. In the first stage, the model performs efficient layout analysis on downsampled images to identify structural elements, circumventing the computational overhead of processing high-resolution inputs. In the second stage, guided by the global layout, it performs targeted content recognition on native-resolution crops extracted from the original image, preserving fine-grained details in dense text, complex formulas, and tables. To support this strategy, we developed a comprehensive data engine that generates diverse, large-scale training corpora for both pretraining and fine-tuning. Ultimately, MinerU2.5 demonstrates strong document parsing ability, achieving state-of-the-art performance on multiple benchmarks, surpassing both general-purpose and domain-specific models across various recognition tasks, while maintaining significantly lower computational overhead.

AgenticQwen: Training Small Agentic Language Models with Dual Data Flywheels for Industrial-Scale Tool Use

Yuanjie Lyu, Chengyu Wang, Haonan Zheng, Yuanhao Yue, Junbing Yan, Ming Wang, Jun Huang

原文摘要

Modern industrial applications increasingly demand language models that act as agents, capable of multi-step reasoning and tool use in real-world settings. These tasks are typically performed under strict cost and latency constraints, making small agentic models highly desirable. In this paper, we introduce the AgenticQwen family of models, trained via multi-round reinforcement learning (RL) on synthetic data and a limited amount of open-source data. Our training framework combines reasoning RL and agentic RL with dual data flywheels that automatically generate increasingly challenging tasks. The reasoning flywheel increases task difficulty by learning from errors, while the agentic flywheel expands linear workflows into multi-branch behavior trees that better reflect the decision complexity of real-world applications. We validate AgenticQwen on public benchmarks and in an industrial agent system. The models achieve strong performance on multiple agentic benchmarks, and in our industrial agent system, close the gap with much larger models on search and data analysis tasks.

Large Language Models Are Bad Dice Players: LLMs Struggle to Generate Random Numbers from Statistical Distributions

Minda Zhao, Yilun Du Google, Mengyu Wang Harvard University

原文摘要

As large language models (LLMs) transition from chat interfaces to integral components of stochastic pipelines and systems approaching general intelligence, the ability to faithfully sample from specified probability distributions has become a functional requirement rather than a theoretical curiosity. We present the first large-scale, statistically powered audit of native probabilistic sampling in frontier LLMs, benchmarking 11 models across 15 distributions. To disentangle failure modes, we employ a dual-protocol design: Batch Generation, where a model produces N{=}1000 samples within one response, and Independent Requests, comprising N{=}1000 stateless calls. We observe a sharp protocol asymmetry: batch generation achieves only modest statistical validity, with a 7% median pass rate, while independent requests collapse almost entirely, with 10 of 11 models passing none of the distributions. Beyond this asymmetry, we reveal that sampling fidelity degrades monotonically with distributional complexity and aggravates as the sampling horizon N increases. Finally, we demonstrate how the propagation of these failures into downstream real-world application tasks introduces systematic biases: models fail to enforce uniform answer-position constraints in Multiple Choice Question generation and systematically violate demographic targets in attribute-constrained text-to-image prompt synthesis. These findings indicate that current LLMs lack a functional internal sampler, necessitating external tools for applications requiring statistical guarantees.

BTC-LLM: Efficient Sub-1-Bit LLM Quantization via Learnable Transformation and Binary Codebook

Hao Gu The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology, Lujun Li, Hao Wang, Lei Wang, Zheyu Wang, Bei Liu The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology, Jiacheng Liu, Qiyuan Zhu 等 10 位作者

原文摘要

Binary quantization represents the most extreme form of compression, reducing weights to \pm1 for maximal memory and computational efficiency. While recent sparsity-aware binarization achieves sub-1-bit compression via weight pruning, it faces critical challenger: performance degradation, mask-management overhead, and limited hardware compatibility. In this paper, we present BTC-LLM, a novel sub-1-bit LLM quantization framework that leverages binary pattern clustering and weight transformation to overcome these limitations. Our approach incorporates two key innovations: (1) a Binary Codebook that clusters recurring vectors into compact indices using custom distance metrics and sign-based updates; (2) a Learnable Transformation that reduces outliers and promotes shared sign patterns among binary weights. This eliminates sparse masks, enabling efficient inference on standard hardware. Extensive evaluations across LLaMA, Qwen, and FBI-LLM families demonstrate that BTC-LLM achieves state-of-the-art results in extreme compression (1.11–0.7 bits). Notably, BTC-LLM compressed to 0.8 bits on LLaMA-2-13B maintains high performance—with only a 3.1% accuracy drop in zero-shot benchmarks—while delivering a 1.6\times speedup over FP16.

PARIF: Pushing the Pareto Frontier of Instruction Following and Reasoning with Curriculum Reinforcement Learning

Rongchuan Mu, Zexin Wang Harbin Institute of Technology, Qianyu Wang, MingHua Ma, Zekun Wang Alibaba Group, Ming Liu Harbin Institute of Technology, Bing Qin Harbin Institute of Technology

原文摘要

Large Reasoning Models (LRMs) excel at complex problem-solving but frequently overlook specific instruction constraints. Existing alignment methods struggle to balance general reasoning with instruction-following (IF), hindered by dependency on teacher models, reward hacking, and reasoning-answer inconsistencies. We propose PARIF, a two-stage curriculum learning framework based on Reinforcement Learning from Verifiable Rewards (RLVR) to enhance both IF and general reasoning capabilities. The framework employs a correctness proxy across different stages to mitigate reward hacking. Stage I employs a dynamic weighting strategy simultaneously to optimize the model’s reasoning paradigm regarding constraints. Stage II introduces Decoupled-GRPO, which builds upon the first stage to enhance the logical consistency between the reasoning process and the final answer, enabling the model to better leverage its optimized reasoning paradigm. To support the framework, we curate 26,000 high-quality instructions featuring diverse constraints. Extensive experiments demonstrate PARIF’s effectiveness: our 7B model achieves a remarkable 21.25% relative average improvement to the original model across six representative IF tasks, while our 8B model outperforms leading models like DeepSeek-V3 on these IF tasks, effectively pushing the Pareto frontier of instruction following and reasoning for models of comparable scale. We open-source our code and models to facilitate future research.

CoreCodeBench: Decoupling Code Intelligence via Fine-Grained Repository-Level Tasks

Lingyue Fu, Hao Guan, Bolun Zhang, Haowei Yuan, Yaoming Zhu, Lin Qiu, ZongYu Wang Meituan, Xuezhi Cao Meituan 等 12 位作者

原文摘要

The evaluation of Large Language Models (LLMs) for software engineering has shifted towards complex, repository-level tasks. However, existing benchmarks predominantly rely on coarse-grained pass rates that treat programming proficiency as a monolithic capability, obscuring specific cognitive bottlenecks. Furthermore, the static nature of these benchmarks renders them vulnerable to data contamination and performance saturation. To address these limitations, we introduce CoreCodeBench, a configurable repository-level benchmark designed to dissect coding capabilities through atomized tasks. Leveraging our automated framework, CorePipe, we extract and transform Python repositories into a comprehensive suite of tasks that isolate distinct cognitive demands within identical code contexts. Unlike static evaluations, CoreCodeBench supports controllable difficulty scaling to prevent saturation and ensures superior data quality. It achieves a 78.55% validity yield, significantly surpassing the 31.7% retention rate of SWE-bench-Verified. Extensive experiments with state-of-the-art LLMs reveal a significant capability misalignment, evidenced by distinct ranking shifts across cognitive dimensions. This indicates that coding proficiency is non-monolithic, as strength in one aspect does not necessarily translate to others. These findings underscore the necessity of our fine-grained taxonomy in diagnosing model deficiencies and offer a sustainable, rigorous framework for evolving code intelligence. Code of CorePipe framework and data of CoreCodeBench are available in https://github.com/AGI-Eval-Official/CoreCodeBench and https://huggingface.co/collections/tubehhh/corecodebench.

Cross-Modal Coreference Alignment: Enabling Reliable Information Transfer in Omni-LLMs

Hongcheng Liu, Yuhao Wang, Zhe Chen, Pingjie Wang, Zhiyuan Zhu, Yixuan Hou Shanghai Jiaotong University, Yanfeng Wang Shanghai Jiao Tong University, Yu Wang Shanghai Jiao Tong University

原文摘要

Omni Large Language Models (Omni-LLMs) have demonstrated impressive capabilities in holistic multi-modal perception, yet they consistently falter in complex scenarios requiring synergistic omni-modal reasoning. Beyond understanding global multimodal context, effective reasoning also hinges on fine-grained cross-modal alignment, especially identifying shared referents across modalities, yet this aspect has been largely overlooked. To bridge this gap, we formalize the challenge as a cross-modal coreference problem, where a model must localize a referent in a source modality and re-identify it in a target modality. Building on this paradigm, we introduce CrossOmni, a dataset comprising nine tasks equipped with human-designed reasoning rationales to evaluate and enhance this capability. Experiments on 13 Omni-LLMs reveal systematic weaknesses in cross-modal coreference, which we attribute to the absence of coreference-aware thinking patterns. To address this, we enhance cross-modal alignment via two strategies: a training-free In-Context Learning method and a training-based SFT+GRPO framework designed to induce such thinking patterns. Both approaches yield substantial performance gains and generalize effectively to collaborative reasoning tasks. Overall, our findings highlight cross-modal coreference as a crucial missing piece for advancing robust omni-modal reasoning.

AwarenessBench: Assessing Cognitive Capabilities of Language Models

Xiaojian Li, Rongwu Xu, Tianyun Zhang, Yue Wang, Shuo Chen, Qiner Lyu Shanghai Qi Zhi Institute, Briana Zhang, Peiran Yang Tsinghua University 等 12 位作者

原文摘要

As language models (LMs) exhibit increasingly consciousness-like behaviors, evaluating their cognitive abilities becomes essential. We introduce AwarenessBench, the first comprehensive benchmark for assessing the cognitive abilities of LMs in four dimensions: metacognition, self-awareness, social awareness, and situational awareness, covering 15 cognitive functions and 14,381 samples. Evaluating 18 state-of-the-art LMs, we find that all consistently surpass random baselines, with more advanced models performing better. We further compare LMs with human performance across three demographic groups, where the best-performing model surpasses human averages overall, but most still fall markedly short in metacognition and self-awareness. Finally, we show that awareness is a distinct capability: progress in language modeling or reasoning does not necessarily translate into improved cognition.

When Seeing Is not Enough: Revealing the Limits of Active Reasoning in MLLMs

Hongcheng Liu, Pingjie Wang, Yuhao Wang, Siqu Ou Shanghai Jiaotong University, Yanfeng Wang Shanghai Jiao Tong University, Yu Wang Shanghai Jiao Tong University

原文摘要

Multimodal large language models (MLLMs) have shown strong capabilities across a broad range of benchmarks. However, most existing evaluations focus on passive inference, where models perform step-by-step reasoning under complete information. This setup is misaligned with real-world use, where seeing is not enough. This raises a fundamental question: Can MLLMs actively acquire missing evidence under incomplete information? To bridge this gap, we require the MLLMs to actively acquire missing evidence and iteratively refine decisions under incomplete information, by selecting a target image from a candidate pool without task-specific priors. To support systematic study, we propose GuessBench, a benchmark with both perception-oriented and knowledge-oriented images for evaluating active reasoning in MLLMs. We evaluate 20 superior MLLMs and find that performance on active reasoning lags far behind it on passive settings, indicating substantial room for improvement. Further analysis identifies fine-grained perception and timely decision-making as key challenges. Ablation studies show that perceptual enhancements benefit smaller models, whereas thinking-oriented methods provide consistent gains across model sizes. These results suggest promising directions for future research on multimodal active reasoning.

CuMA: Aligning LLMs with Sparse Cultural Values via Demographic-Aware Mixture of Adapters

Ao Sun, Xiaoyu Wang, Zhe Tan, Yu Li, Jiachen Zhu ByteDance Inc., Yuheng Jia Southeast University, Shu Su Southeast University

原文摘要

As Large Language Models (LLMs) serve a global audience, alignment must transition from enforcing universal consensus to respecting cultural pluralism. We demonstrate that dense models, when forced to fit conflicting value distributions, suffer from Mean Collapse, converging to a generic average that fails to represent diverse groups. We attribute this to Cultural Sparsity, where gradient interference prevents dense parameters from spanning distinct cultural modes. To resolve this, we propose CuMA (Cultural Mixture of Adapters), a framework that frames alignment as a conditional capacity separation problem. By incorporating demographic-aware routing, CuMA internalizes a Latent Cultural Topology to explicitly disentangle conflicting gradients into specialized expert subspaces. Extensive evaluations on WorldValuesBench, Community Alignment, and PRISM demonstrate that CuMA achieves competitive performance, outperforming both dense baselines and semantic-only MoEs. Our analysis confirms that CuMA effectively mitigates mean collapse and preserves cultural diversity. Our code is available at https://github.com/Throll/CuMA.

KoCo-Bench: Can Large Language Models Leverage Domain Knowledge in Software Development?

Xue Jiang, Ge Li Peking University, Jiaru Qian, Xianjie Shi, Chenjie Li Peking University, Hao Zhu, Ziyu Wang Peking University, Jielun Zhang Peking University 等 14 位作者

原文摘要

Large language models (LLMs) excel at general programming but struggle with domain-specific software development. This gap motivates research into domain specialization methods that enable LLMs to learn and utilize domain knowledge and data. However, existing domain-specific code benchmarks focus on assessing what knowledge LLMs possess rather than how they acquire and apply new knowledge, lacking explicit knowledge corpora for developing domain specialization methods. To this end, we present KOCO-bench, a novel benchmark designed for evaluating domain specialization methods in real-world software development. KOCO-bench contains 6 emerging domains with 11 software frameworks and 25 projects, featuring curated knowledge corpora alongside multi-granularity evaluation tasks including domain code generation (from function-level to project-level with rigorous test suites) and domain knowledge understanding (via multiple-choice Q A). Unlike previous benchmarks that only provide test sets for direct evaluation, KOCO-bench requires acquiring and applying diverse domain knowledge (APIs, rules, constraints, etc.) from the corpora to solve evaluation tasks. Our evaluations reveal that KOCO-bench poses significant challenges to state-of-the-art LLMs. Even with domain specialization methods (e.g., SFT, RAG, kNN-LM) applied, improvements remain marginal. Best-performing coding agent, Claude Code, achieves only 34.2%, highlighting the urgent need for more effective domain specialization methods. We release KOCO-bench, evaluation code, and baselines to advance further research at https://github.com/jiangxxxue/KOCO-bench.

FactVerse: A Benchmark for Factual Consistency in Interleaved Image–Text Generation

Yubo Shan, Kun Zhang Tencent, Qiming Xu Beijing Technology and Business University, Liping Cao, Yingying Cao, Jian Zhang, Yu Wang, Jingyuan Li 等 9 位作者

原文摘要

Interleaved multimodal understanding and generation—where models can interactively comprehend and produce images and text in arbitrary orders—has emerged as a key research direction in generative Multimodal Large Language Models(MLLMs). Such interleaved image–text content plays an increasingly important role in information dissemination. However, the compounded persuasive power of multimodal narratives also raises the risk of factual misinformation. Despite this, existing benchmarks lack effective mechanisms to evaluate factual consistency in interleaved image–text content. To bridge this gap, we introduce FactVerse, a benchmark dedicated to evaluating factual consistency in interleaved image-text generation. FactVerse comprises 3,000 human-verified instances across four categories and 50 domains, supporting both English and Chinese. We also establish a multi-dimensional evaluation framework designed to rigorously assess factual consistency. Experiments demonstrate that our framework achieves high alignment with human judgments, significantly outperforming existing evaluation methods. Furthermore, our analysis reveals systematic deficiencies in current models, offering critical insights for future design.

ReviewGrounder: Improving Review Substantiveness with Rubric-Guided, Tool-Integrated Agents

原文摘要

The rapid rise in AI conference submissions has driven increasing exploration of large language models (LLMs) for peer review support. However, LLM-based reviewers often generate superficial, formulaic comments lacking substantive, evidence-grounded feedback. We attribute this to the underutilization of two key components of human reviewing: explicit rubrics and contextual grounding in existing work. To address this, we introduce ReviewBench, a benchmark evaluating review text according to paper-specific rubrics derived from official guidelines, the paper’s content, and human-written reviews. We further propose ReviewGrounder, a rubric-guided, tool-integrated multi-agent framework that decomposes reviewing into drafting and grounding stages, enriching shallow drafts via targeted evidence consolidation. Experiments on ReviewBench show that ReviewGrounder, using a Phi-4-14B-based drafter and a GPT-OSS-120B-based grounding stage, consistently outperforms baselines with substantially stronger/larger backbones (e.g., GPT-4.1 and DeepSeek-R1-670B) in both alignment with human judgments and rubric-based review quality across 8 dimensions. The code is available at https://github.com/EigenTom/ReviewGrounder.

LoPT: Lossless Parallel Tokenization Acceleration for Long Context Inference of Large Language Model

Wei Shao, Zheng Lingchao Huawei Technologies Ltd., Pengyu Wang, Peizhen Zheng Huawei Technologies Ltd., Li Jun, Yuwei Fan Huawei Technologies Ltd.

原文摘要

Long context inference scenarios have become increasingly important for large language models, yet they introduce significant computational latency. While prior research has optimized long-sequence inference through operators, model architectures, and system frameworks, tokenization remains an overlooked bottleneck. Existing parallel tokenization methods accelerate processing through text segmentation and multi-process tokenization, but they suffer from inconsistent results due to boundary artifacts that occur after merging. To address this, we propose LoPT, a novel Lossless Parallel Tokenization framework that ensures output identical to standard sequential tokenization. Our approach employs character-position-based matching and dynamic chunk length adjustment to align and merge tokenized segments accurately. Extensive experiments across diverse long-text datasets demonstrate that LoPT achieves significant speedup while guaranteeing lossless tokenization. We also provide theoretical proof of consistency and comprehensive analytical studies to validate the robustness of our method.

NeuralFSM: Adaptive Multi-Agent Coordination via Learning Finite-State Execution Policy

Jiye Wang State Grid Corporation of China, Yu Wang NCEPU, Jianbin Li NCEPU, Shiduo Yang NCEPU, Kenan Guo, Yuanhe Zhao NCEPU

原文摘要

LLM-powered multi-agent systems (MAS) have demonstrated strong performance on complex tasks. However, most existing approaches still rely on hand-crafted communication protocols or automatically designed communication topologies, which generalize poorly across tasks. We introduce NeuralFSM, a state-driven framework that formulates multi-agent problem solving as a finite-state execution process. NeuralFSM learns both the state transition distribution and inter-agent communication weights from interaction traces using a Temporal Coordination Controller. Rather than prioritizing explicit structure generation, the proposed framework uses task context to modulate transition and routing decisions, enabling flexible coordination without manual protocol design. To improve robustness against noisy or adversarial agents, we incorporate graph regularization during training and apply trust-aware message attenuation at runtime. Experiments on diverse benchmarks show that NeuralFSM consistently outperforms prior baselines by an average margin of 6.74%–19.39%, while substantially reducing token consumption. Moreover, NeuralFSM exhibits strong inherent robustness, which is further enhanced by the protection layer, resulting in only a 1.82% performance drop under attack.

PRISM: Probing Reasoning, Instruction, and Source Memory in LLM Hallucinations

Yuhe Wu, Guangyu Wang, Yuran Chen, Jiatong Zhang, Yutong Zhang, Yujie Chen, Jiaming Shang, Guang Zhang The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (Guangzhou) 等 9 位作者

原文摘要

As large language models (LLMs) evolve from conversational assistants into agents capable of handling complex tasks, they are increasingly deployed in high-risk domains. However, existing benchmarks largely rely on mixed queries and posterior evaluation, output-level scoring, which quantifies hallucination severity but offers limited insight into where and why hallucinations arise in the generation pipeline. We therefore reformulate hallucination evaluation as a diagnostic problem and propose PRISM, a controlled benchmark that disentangles hallucinations into four dimensions: knowledge missing, knowledge errors, reasoning errors, and instruction-following errors, grounded in three stages of generation (memory, instruction, and reasoning). PRISM contains 9,448 instances across 65 tasks and supports fine-grained, stage-aware diagnostic evaluation. Evaluating 24 mainstream open-source and proprietary LLMs, we uncover consistent trade-offs across instruction following, memory retrieval, and logical reasoning, showing that mitigation strategies often improve specific dimensions at the expense of others.We hope PRISM provides a framework for understanding the specific mechanisms behind LLMs hallucinations, ultimately accelerating the development of trustworthy large language models.

Evolutionary Negative Module Pruning for Better LoRA Merging

Anda Cao Zhejiang University, Zhuo Gou Zhejiang University, Yi Wang Zhejiang University, Kaixuan Chen, Yu Wang Zhejiang University, Can Wang, Mingli Song Zhejiang University, Jie Song Zhejiang University

原文摘要

Merging multiple Low-Rank Adaptation (LoRA) experts into a single backbone is a promising approach for efficient multi-task deployment. While existing methods strive to alleviate interference via weight interpolation or subspace alignment, they rest upon the implicit assumption that all LoRA matrices contribute constructively to the merged model. In this paper, we uncover a critical bottleneck in current merging paradigms: the existence of \textit{negative modules}—specific LoRA layers that inherently degrade global performance upon merging. We propose \textbf{E}volutionary \textbf{N}egative \textbf{M}odule \textbf{P}runing (\textbf{ENMP}), a plug-and-play LoRA pruning method to locate and exclude these detrimental modules prior to merging. By leveraging an evolutionary search strategy, ENMP effectively navigates the discrete, non-differentiable landscape of module selection to identify optimal pruning configurations. Extensive evaluations demonstrate that ENMP consistently boosts the performance of existing merging algorithms, achieving a new state-of-the-art across both language and vision domains. Code is available at https://github.com/CaoAnda/ENMP-LoRAMerging.

原文摘要

Recent advances in large language models (LLMs) have significantly improved code-generation capabilities, particularly through retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) for private libraries. While RAG leverages API documentation to address the scarcity of private code corpora, its performance critically depends on the quality of retrieved examples. Existing approaches often overlook the intrinsic characteristics of these examples, particularly how factors such as complexity, readability, and correctness impact their effectiveness. In this study, we systematically investigate these three critical aspects—complexity, readability, and correctness—and find that optimal examples should exhibit moderate complexity, semantic correctness, and step-by-step execution patterns. Based on these findings, we propose ComboPrompt, a novel example enhancement method that strategically combines existing API examples to improve complexity, refines code structure for readability, and incorporates automated validation ensuring correctness. Extensive evaluations across five private library benchmarks and different LLMs demonstrate that ComboPrompt achieves up to 22% accuracy improvement over baseline approaches. Code is available at Github.

Are We Using the Right Benchmark: An Evaluation Framework for Visual Token Compression Methods

Chenfei Liao, Wensong Wang, Zichen Wen Shanghai Jiao Tong University, Xu Zheng, Yiyu Wang, Haocong He, Yuanhuiyi Lyu, Lutao Jiang 等 13 位作者

原文摘要

Recent efforts to accelerate inference in Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) have largely focused on visual token compression. The effectiveness of these methods is commonly evaluated by measuring the accuracy drop on existing MLLM benchmarks before and after compression. However, these benchmarks are originally designed to assess general perception and reasoning abilities, rather than the specific challenges posed by visual token compression, leading to a fundamental task mismatch. In this work, we uncover a counterintuitive yet consistent phenomenon: simple image downsampling outperforms many advanced visual token compression methods across multiple widely used benchmarks. Through a comprehensive empirical study spanning eight popular benchmarks and multiple state-of-the-art compression techniques, we show that (i) current benchmarks contain substantial noise (task-irrelevant samples) for evaluating visual token compression, and (ii) downsampling can act as an effective data filter that distinguishes between simple and difficult samples with respect to compression sensitivity. Motivated by these findings, we propose VTC-Bench, an evaluation framework that explicitly leverages downsampling as a discriminator to denoise existing benchmarks, enabling a fairer and more meaningful additional assessment of visual token compression methods.

原文摘要

Personalized Large Language Models (PLLMs) aim to align model outputs with individual user preferences, a crucial capability for user-centric applications. However, the prevalent approach of fine-tuning a separate module for each user faces two major limitations: (1) storage costs scale linearly with the number of users, rendering the method unscalable; and (2) fine-tuning a static model from scratch often yields suboptimal performance for users with sparse data. To address these challenges, we propose MTA, a Merge-then-Adapt framework for PLLMs. MTA comprises three key stages. First, we construct a shared Meta-LoRA Bank by selecting anchor users and pre-training meta-personalization traits within meta-LoRA modules. Second, to ensure scalability and enable dynamic personalization combination beyond static models, we introduce an Adaptive LoRA Fusion stage. This stage retrieves and dynamically merges the most relevant anchor meta-LoRAs to synthesize a user-specific one, thereby eliminating the need for user-specific storage and supporting more flexible personalization. Third, we propose a LoRA Stacking for Few-Shot Personalization stage, which applies an additional ultra-low-rank, lightweight LoRA module on top of the merged LoRA. Fine-tuning this module enables effective personalization under few-shot settings. Extensive experiments on the LaMP benchmark demonstrate that our approach outperforms existing SOTA methods across multiple tasks. Our code is also available.

HSGraphAgent: Knowledge-Graph-Guided Large Language Models for Harmonized System Code Classification

Qiang Xia Tongji University, Zijian Zhang, Ao Wang, Wenhan Wang, Xiangyu Wang, Jian Li Tongji University

原文摘要

Harmonized System (HS) code classification is a hierarchically structured and regulation-constrained task, often complicated by short and noisy product descriptions. Misclassification can lead to tariff misapplication, regulatory violations, or delayed customs clearance, which in turn requires predictions to be both semantically appropriate and hierarchically valid. While large language models (LLMs) show strong semantic understanding, their unconstrained generation is poorly aligned with these requirements, often producing non-existent or hierarchically inconsistent codes. We propose HSGraphAgent a knowledge-graph-guided LLM framework that formulates HS classification as a stepwise, regulation-aware reasoning process over an explicit HS knowledge graph. By encoding hierarchical containment relations and regulatory exclusion rules, and enforcing them through a Select-Redirect mechanism, HSGraphAgent constrains inference to legally valid paths while producing explicit and traceable reasoning trajectories. Experiments on taxonomy-wide 4-digit and fine-grained 6-digit HS benchmarks demonstrate consistent improvements over direct generation and retrieval-augmented baselines, with particularly strong gains in fine-grained and regulation-sensitive classification settings.

RADO: Reasoning Audit-Driven Optimization for Rigorous Reasoning in High-Stakes Domains

Zhijie Tan, Xu Chu, Guanyu Wang, Ziyu Li, Weiping Li Peking University, Tong Mo

原文摘要

High-stakes domains such as finance, law, and biomedicine demand both accurate results and rigorous reasoning. Current reinforcement learning paradigms primarily rely on outcome-based rewards, often overlooking latent logical fallacies in intermediate steps. Leveraging the cognitive asymmetry where falsifying local errors is more efficient than generating global correctness, we propose RADO (Reasoning Audit-Driven Optimization). RADO introduces a specialized audit model augmented with external tools to identify local logical ruptures and calibrate reward signals. By integrating Direct Preference Optimization (DPO) with Group Relative Policy Optimization (GRPO), our framework enables explicit supervision over reasoning paths. Experimental results demonstrate that RADO consistently improves final accuracy while significantly enhancing logical rigor in high-stakes domains.

Paper2Rebuttal: A Multi-Agent Framework for Transparent Author Response Assistance

Qianli Ma Shanghai Jiao Tong University, Chang Guo, Zhiheng Tian, Siyu Wang, Jipeng Xiao, Yuanhao Yue Alibaba Group, Zhipeng Zhang Shanghai Jiaotong University and Didi Research

原文摘要

Writing effective rebuttals is a high-stakes task that demands more than linguistic fluency, as it requires precise alignment between reviewer intent and manuscript details. Current solutions typically treat this as a direct-to-text generation problem, suffering from hallucination, overlooked critiques, and a lack of verifiable grounding. To address these limitations, we introduce RebuttalAgent, the first multi-agents framework that reframes rebuttal generation as an evidence-centric planning task. Our system decomposes complex feedback into atomic concerns and dynamically constructs hybrid contexts by synthesizing compressed summaries with high-fidelity text while integrating an autonomous and on-demand external search module to resolve concerns requiring outside literature. By generating an inspectable response plan before drafting, RebuttalAgent ensures that every argument is explicitly anchored in internal or external evidence. We validate our approach on the proposed RebuttalBench and demonstrate that our pipeline outperforms strong baselines in coverage, faithfulness, and strategic coherence, offering a transparent and controllable assistant for the peer review process. Code will be released.

Towards Order Fairness: Mitigating LLMs Order Sensitivity through Dual Group Advantage Optimization

Xu Chu, Guanyu Wang, Zhijie Tan, Xinrong Chen, Ziyu Li, Tong Mo, Weiping Li Peking University

原文摘要

Large Language Models (LLMs) suffer from order bias, where their performance is affected by the arrangement order of input elements. This unfairness limits the model’s applications in scenarios such as in-context learning and Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG). Recent studies attempt to obtain optimal or suboptimal arrangements based on statistical results or using dataset-based search, but these methods increase inference overhead while leaving the model’s inherent order bias unresolved. Other studies mitigate order sensitivity through supervised fine-tuning using augmented training sets with multiple order variants, but often at the cost of accuracy, trapping the model in consistent yet incorrect hallucinations. In this paper, we propose Dual Group Advantage Optimization (DGAO), which aims to improve model accuracy and order stability simultaneously. DGAO calculates and balances intra-group relative accuracy advantage and inter-group relative stability advantage, rewarding the policy model for generating order-stable and correct outputs while penalizing order-sensitive or incorrect responses. This marks the first time reinforcement learning has been used to mitigate LLMs’ order sensitivity. We also propose two new metrics, Consistency Rate and Overconfidence Rate, to reveal the pseudo-stability of previous methods and guide more comprehensive evaluation. Extensive experiments demonstrate that DGAO achieves superior order fairness while improving performance on RAG, mathematical reasoning, and classification tasks.

Miner: Mining Intrinsic Mastery for Data-Efficient RL in Large Reasoning Models

Shuyang Jiang, Yuhao Wang, Ya Zhang Shanghai Jiao Tong University, Yanfeng Wang Shanghai Jiao Tong University, Yu Wang Shanghai Jiao Tong University

原文摘要

Current critic-free RL methods for large reasoning models suffer from severe inefficiency when training on positive homogeneous prompts (where all rollouts are correct), resulting in waste of rollouts due to zero advantage estimates. We introduce a radically simple yet powerful solution to Mine intrinsic mastery (Miner), that repurposes the policy’s intrinsic uncertainty as a self-supervised reward signal, with no external supervision, auxiliary models, or additional inference cost. Our method pioneers two key innovations: (1) a token-level focal credit assignment mechanism that dynamically amplifies gradients on critical uncertain tokens while suppressing overconfident ones, and (2) adaptive advantage calibration to seamlessly integrate intrinsic and verifiable rewards. Evaluated across six reasoning benchmarks on Qwen3-4B and Qwen3-8B base models, Miner achieves state-of-the-art performance among the other four algorithms, yielding up to 4.58 absolute gains in Pass@1 and 6.66 gains in Pass@K compared to GRPO. Comparison with other methods targeted at exploration enhancement further discloses the superiority of the two newly proposed innovations. This demonstrates that latent uncertainty exploitation is both necessary and sufficient for efficient and scalable RL training of reasoning models. Code is available at https://github.com/pixas/Miner.

Investigating the Representation of Backchannels and Fillers in Fine-tuned Language Models

原文摘要

Backchannels and fillers are important linguistic expressions in dialogue, but often treated as “noise” to be bypassed in modern transformer-based language models. Our work studies the representation of them in language models using three fine-tuning strategies. The models are trained on three dialogue corpora in English and Japanese, where backchannels and fillers are preserved and annotated, to investigate how fine-tuning can help LMs learn their representations. We first apply clustering analysis to the learnt representation of backchannels and fillers, and have found increased silhouette scores in representations from fine-tuned models, which suggests that fine-tuning enables LMs to distinguish the nuanced semantic variation in different backchannel and filler use. We also use natural language generation (NLG) metrics and qualitative analysis to confirm that the utterances generated by fine-tuned language models resemble human-produced utterances more closely. Our findings suggest the potentials of transforming general LMs into conversational LMs that are more capable of producing human-like languages adequately.

原文摘要

Large language models (LLMs) often produce incorrect or outdated content. Updating their knowledge efficiently and accurately without costly retraining is a major challenge. This problem is particularly challenging for complex, unstructured knowledge in lifelong settings, where many edits must coexist without interference. We introduce RILKE (Representation Intervention for Lifelong KnowledgE Control), a robust and scalable method that treats knowledge control as interventions within the model’s representation space. Leveraging representation-space expressiveness, we identify two key properties enabling RILKE to achieve fine-grained control over complex, unstructured knowledge while maintaining general utility with frozen base weights. During training, RILKE learns paraphrase-robust and edit-localized modules that limit each update to a low-dimensional subspace to minimize cross-edit interference. In inference, a query-adaptive router selects the appropriate module to guide the model’s generation. Across LLaMA and Qwen models, RILKE scales effectively to large-scale benchmarks, demonstrating high edit success and strong paraphrase generalization while preserving general utility with modest memory overhead. These results show RILKE is an effective and scalable solution for lifelong knowledge control in LLMs.

SLoRA: Balancing Plasticity and Forgetting in Large Language Models for Continual Learning

Lina Yang Shanghai Jiaotong University, Yusheng Liao Shanghai Jiaotong University, Yanfeng Wang Shanghai Jiao Tong University, Yu Wang Shanghai Jiao Tong University

原文摘要

Large language models (LLMs) have achieved remarkable success across diverse tasks through large-scale pretraining. However, they remain prone to catastrophic forgetting in continual learning. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first work to identify noise accumulation in LoRA updates as a key cause of forgetting in continual learning. A preliminary two-task experiment demonstrates that removing less important components of the second task’s LoRA parameters improves performance on the first task, suggesting that later updates introduce noisy interference. Building on this insight, we propose Subspace-Denoised Low-Rank Adaptation (SLoRA), a simple and effective framework that filters noisy components from LoRA updates via subspace similarity with the base model. SLoRA is a regularization-free method without accessing data or gradients from previous tasks or modifying the training process. It offers two variants, SLoRA-Pre and SLoRA-Post, for online and offline continual learning, respectively. Extensive experiments across tasks and models validate the effectiveness of SLoRA. It improves final accuracy by up to 12%, reduces forgetting by 29%, and filters out over 30% of LoRA parameters identified as noisy. Our code is available at https://github.com/alina1031/SLoRA.

TriEx: A Game-based Tri-View Framework for Explaining Internal Reasoning in Multi-Agent LLMs

Ziyi Wang, Chen Zhang, Wenjun Peng University of Adelaide, Qi Wu The University of Adelaide, Xinyu Wang The University of Adelaide

原文摘要

Explainability for Large Language Model (LLM) agents is especially challenging in interactive, partially observable settings, where decisions depend on evolving beliefs and other agents. We present TriEx, a tri-view explainability framework that instruments sequential decision making with aligned artifacts: (i) structured first-person self-reasoning bound to an action, (ii) explicit second-person belief states about opponents updated over time, and (iii) third-person oracle audits grounded in environment-derived reference signals. This design turns explanations from free-form narratives into evidence-anchored objects that can be compared and checked across time and perspectives. Using imperfect-information strategic games as a controlled testbed, we show that TriEx enables scalable analysis of explanation faithfulness, belief dynamics, and evaluator reliability, revealing systematic mismatches between what agents say, what they believe, and what they do. Our results highlight explainability as an interaction-dependent property and motivate multi-view, evidence-grounded evaluation for LLM agents.
