Large language models (LLMs) are increasingly expected to extract and synthesize structured information from complex real-world documents, yet they typically produce unstructured, hard-to-verify paragraph-style outputs. We introduce AOE (Arranged and Organized Extraction), a bilingual benchmark that evaluates LLMs' ability to distill long-form, multi-document inputs (64k to 1.8M tokens) into structured tables. AOE comprises 12 tasks across four domains (academic, financial, legal, and medical), each grounded in genuine analytical needs, with schema guidance provided to isolate extraction quality from formatting variance. We evaluate 12 frontier LLMs (both open-weight and proprietary) under four generation settings of increasing autonomy: direct full-document input, RAG-based retrieval, offline document-browsing agent, and online web-search agent. Even the best-performing model achieves only 42.7% Cell F1, and retrieval-augmented approaches often degrade rather than improve performance, revealing that structured extraction from long contexts remains a fundamental challenge - an "Area of Effect" (AOE) that impacts all tested systems.
Autoscaling is a key mechanism in model-as-a-service systems, where fast scale-up is essential because the scale-up time directly determines how long a model service remains overloaded, which in turn governs serving quality. The state-of-the-art approach, model sleeping, adopted by mainstream serving engines including vLLM and SGLang, achieves near-zero-cost scale-up by pausing pre-spawned engines on the GPU. However, sleeping is not a free lunch: each sleeping model must keep its GPU context resident, and this cost grows linearly with the number of models, degrading serving performance. Because providers must support many models, they face a dilemma between fast scale-up for all models and high service performance. In this paper, we show that a single server can keep many models asleep without paying this GPU context tax. The key observation is that the contexts of sleeping models are largely duplicated: the driver (CUDA) context can be shared across models, and their GPU kernel binaries overlap heavily due to common operators and libraries. PhOSv1 deduplicates this context by transparently delegating each engine's GPU context allocation to a central daemon through API remoting; therefore, a single server can keep far more models asleep than current engines allow. Our evaluation shows that PhOSv1 matches the scale-up time of vanilla vLLM sleep mode while substantially reducing the GPU memory footprint, improving end-to-end multi-model serving performance.

Many decentralized exchanges use automated market makers (AMMs) to trade assets against liquidity pools. Modern AMMs allow third-party contracts, called Hooks, to customize this process. However, Hooks can impose additional deductions that fee breakdowns based on standard pool parameters do not itemize. We present, to the best of our knowledge, the first large-scale empirical study of the production Hook ecosystem, focusing on these undisclosed settlement charges. Our study covers 7,873 Hook deployments, 50,011 pools, and 296M pool events on Uniswap v4 and PancakeSwap Infinity across Ethereum and BNB Smart Chain (BSC) through August 1, 2026. We develop a bytecode analysis that reconstructs how Hooks change traders' payments and receipts, separating charges from exchanged assets and standard fees. We then reconstruct historical settlements to measure charging frequency and economic burden. We find that direct settlement adjustment is the dominant Hook capability, supported by 71.37% of registered Hooks. Charging capability is widespread and often exercised: 24.30% of Hooks can impose undisclosed deductions, and these deductions occur in 59.23% of accounted swaps involving such Hooks. These charges generate millions of dollars in revenue, with $3.97M recorded across Hooks with available token prices. These findings reveal a gap between standard fee displays and actual trading costs, motivating explicit disclosure of Hook deductions alongside standard fees.

Code sandboxes have emerged as a critical infrastructure for advancing the coding capabilities of large language models, providing verifiable feedback for both RL training and evaluation. However, existing systems fail to provide accurate verification and efficiency under high-concurrency workloads. We present ScaleBox, a high-fidelity and scalable system designed to address these limitations in large-scale code training. ScaleBox introduces automated special-judge generation and management, fine-grained parallel execution across test cases with seamless multi-node coordination, and a configuration-driven evaluation suite for reproducible benchmarking. A series of experiments demonstrates that ScaleBox significantly enhances code verification accuracy and efficiency. Our further RLVR experiments show that ScaleBox substantially improves both performance on LiveCodeBench and training stability, significantly outperforming heuristic-matching baselines. By providing a reliable and high-throughput infrastructure, ScaleBox facilitates more effective research and development in large-scale code training.

The growing use of large language models (LLMs) in peer review threatens scholarly integrity. Recent conference policies allow AI tools for language polishing but prohibit their use for generating substantive content. However, existing detectors mainly rely on stylistic cues, making it difficult to distinguish between surface-level language refinement and genuine content generation. To address this, we advocate a content-based detection paradigm and introduce CoCoNUTS, a comprehensive benchmark containing 315,535 reviews covering leading AI conferences and six human-AI collaboration modes. Our evaluation shows that current detectors struggle to handle these nuanced settings. Consequently, we propose CoCoDet, an AI review detector designed to identify substantive AI-generation. Experiments demonstrate that CoCoDet achieves a macro F1-score of 98.24%. Crucially, on permissible machine-polished reviews, it maintains a low false positive rate of 3.89%, substantially outperforming the strongest baseline (7.84%). Examination on real-world reviews using CoCoDet reveals an escalating trend of substantive AI generation. Our work exposes the inadequacy of current detectors, underscoring the importance of domain-specific solutions.

Dense retrieval has become a core technique in applications like web search and retrieval-augmented generation. Despite their empirical success, it remains unclear whether these models truly understand semantics. To address this gap, this paper conducts a systematic investigation by introducing SURE, a benchmark for Semantic Understanding in dense REtrieval built upon the MSMARCO, NQ, and FiQA datasets. SURE characterizes semantic understanding in dense retrieval along three dimensions: semantic precision, semantic abstraction, and semantic equivalence. We evaluate ten representative models ranging from 110M to 8B parameters, including both general-purpose and domain-specific models. Results show that current dense retrievers struggle to distinguish fine-grained semantic differences across texts with varying information density, and to recognize semantic consistency under lexical paraphrasing. Moreover, larger models do not necessarily exhibit stronger semantic understanding, and diverse training data generally enhances semantic understanding on challenging retrieval tasks.

Multilingual Retrieval-Augmented Generation (mRAG) leverages cross-lingual evidence to ground Large Language Models (LLMs) in global knowledge. However, we show that current mRAG systems suffer from a language bias during reranking, systematically favoring English and the query’s native language. By introducing an estimated oracle evidence analysis, we quantify a substantial performance gap between existing rerankers and the achievable upper bound. Further analysis reveals a critical distributional mismatch: while optimal predictions require evidence scattered across multiple languages, current systems systematically suppress such “answer-critical” documents, thereby limiting downstream generation performance. To bridge this gap, we propose Language-Agnostic Utility-driven Reranker Alignment (LAURA), Experiments across diverse languages and generation models show that LAURA effectively mitigates language bias and consistently improves mRAG performance.

As researchers delve more deeply into their work, paper search requirements may become more flexible, sometimes involving specific details such as module configuration rather than being limited to coarse-grained topics. However, previous paper search systems are unable to meet these flexible-grained requirements, as previous systems mainly collect paper abstract to construct corpus index, which lacks detailed information to support retrieval by some finer-grained queries. In this work, we propose PaperRegister, which transforms traditional abstract-based index into a hierarchical index tree, thereby supporting queries at flexible granularity. Experiments on paper search tasks across a range of granularity demonstrate that PaperRegister achieves the SOTA performance, and particularly excels in the fine-grained scenarios, highlighting good potential as an effective solution for flexible-grained paper search in real-world applications.
