Rotation equivariance is an important structural prior for a broad range of vision tasks, particularly in domains such as remote sensing and medical imaging where objects have no canonical orientation, yet it remains notably absent from current Mamba-based vision architectures. Despite the success of Mamba in natural language processing and its growing adoption in computer vision, existing visual Mamba models fail to account for rotational symmetry in their design. This omission renders them sensitive to image rotations, thereby constraining their robustness and cross-task generalization. To address this limitation, we incorporate rotation symmetry, an important geometric prior in many visual domains, into Mamba-based architectures. Specifically, we introduce EQ-VMamba, the first rotation equivariant visual Mamba architecture for vision tasks. The core components of EQ-VMamba include a carefully designed rotation equivariant cross-scan strategy and group Mamba blocks. Moreover, we provide a rigorous theoretical analysis of the intrinsic equivariance error, demonstrating that the proposed architecture enforces end-to-end rotation equivariance under the p4 rotation group. Extensive experiments across multiple benchmarks---including high-level image classification, mid-level semantic segmentation, and low-level image super-resolution---demonstrate that EQ-VMamba consistently improves rotation robustness and achieves superior or competitive performance compared to non-equivariant baselines on most benchmarks, while requiring 40-70% fewer parameters. These results indicate that embedding rotation equivariance not only effectively bolsters the robustness of visual Mamba models against rotation transformations, but also improves accuracy on data exhibiting rotational symmetry, with substantially improved parameter efficiency.

As AI coding agents take on increasingly complex, long-horizon software engineering tasks, existing benchmarks are rapidly saturating and their evaluation quality has come under serious scrutiny: a recent audit found that nearly 60% of unsolved SWE-bench Verified instances contain flawed tests -- either overly narrow tests that reject correct solutions or overly broad tests that check unstated requirements -- and that frontier models can verbatim reproduce gold patches from training data. Code refactoring, which requires coordinated, behavior-preserving changes across many files, offers a substantially harder and more realistic test of agent capability, yet remains underserved by current benchmarks. We introduce SWE-Bench ProMax, an expert-curated, multilingual code refactoring benchmark of 170 instances drawn from real commits across seven programming languages (Python, Java, TypeScript, Go, C, C++, and Rust). Every instance undergoes rigorous, multi-stage curation that directly addresses the quality problems identified in prior benchmarks: issue descriptions are rewritten from scratch to provide precise, unambiguous specifications, and test suites are manually reviewed to remove overly narrow and overly broad tests. Tasks with insufficient complexity or limited cross-file scope are filtered out, yielding a benchmark of challenging, large-scale refactoring tasks that average 11.5 modified files and 261.6 lines of code per instance, substantially exceeding the scale of existing benchmarks. Experiments with frontier models under two agent scaffolds show that the best model achieves only 41.2% resolve rate, confirming that SWE-Bench ProMax presents a meaningful and unsaturated challenge for current AI coding agents. Our benchmark is available at https://huggingface.co/datasets/swe-bench-promax/SWE-Bench-ProMax.
Spatially consistent long-horizon video generation aims to maintain temporal and spatial consistency along predefined camera trajectories. Existing methods mostly entangle memory modeling with video generation, leading to inconsistent content during scene revisits and diminished generative capacity when exploring novel regions, even when trained on extensive annotated data. To address these limitations, we propose a decoupled framework that separates memory conditioning from generation. Our approach significantly reduces training costs while simultaneously enhancing spatial consistency and preserving the generative capacity for novel scene exploration. Specifically, we employ a lightweight, independent memory branch to learn precise spatial consistency from historical observations. We first introduce a hybrid memory representation to capture complementary temporal and spatial cues from generated frames, then leverage a per-frame cross-attention mechanism to ensure each frame is conditioned exclusively on the most spatially relevant historical information, which is injected into the generative model to ensure spatial consistency. When generating new scenes, a camera-aware gating mechanism is proposed to mediate the interaction between memory and generation modules, enabling memory conditioning only when meaningful historical references exist. Compared with the existing method, our method is highly data-efficient, yet the experiments demonstrate that our approach achieves state-of-the-art performance in terms of both visual quality and spatial consistency.

Large language models (LLMs) have demonstrated abilities to perform complex tasks in multiple domains, including mathematical and scientific reasoning. In this work, we construct a novel agent framework for solving representative problems in scientific computing. The proposed agent incorporates a "rewriting-resolution-review-revision" logical chain via three reasoning LLMs (the Consultant, Reviewer, and Programmer) in a collaborative and interactive manner. The Consultant module enables knowledge transfer to link problems to professional domain insights, thereby rewriting problem descriptions through text augmentation. The Programmer module generates and executes well-structured code to solve problems. The Reviewer module enables self-debugging and self-refinement through interactive feedback with code runtime outputs. Through the end-to-end review mechanism, the Programmer's executable code undergoes iterative revision. We comprehensively evaluate the framework on typical partial differential equations (PDEs), engineering-oriented flow past a cylinder, ill-conditioned linear systems, and data-driven physical analysis problems. Compared with a single-model approach, this collaborative framework significantly improves the bug-free code generation rate and reduces non-physical solutions, establishing a reliable framework for autonomous code generation from natural language descriptions. The review mechanism improved the average execution success (bug-free code and non-NaN solutions) rate of DeepSeek R1 from 59% to 82%, while ChatGPT 4.1-mini improved from 66% to 87% and Gemini-2.5 improved from 60% to 84%. Automatic code generation and review provide a promising workflow for scientific computing; analysis of solver-development trajectories further reveals recurring implementation difficulties in boundary treatment, array indexing, and the preservation of numerical constraints.
Direct-policy World Action Models (WAM) have demonstrated the benefits of decoupling action generation from explicit future visual prediction for efficient inference in autonomous driving and embodied control. However, they still require tens of denoising steps to achieve competitive action quality, incurring substantial latency and hindering real-time deployment. Simply reducing the number of denoising steps will collapse the nonlinear multi-step denoising trajectory into coarse updates, substantially degrading action quality. To reduce the denoising steps while enabling real-time action generation, we present an effective world action model with one-step action generation, namely OSWAM, for autonomous driving and embodied control. We argue that it is the absence of structured action priors in random noise initialization that forces direct-policy WAMs to recover coherent action sequences through iterative denoising. Hence, we construct imagination tokens to initialize the diffusion process, providing physical priors and action-conditioned representations. We further introduce privileged information distillation with future conditioning to enhance future-aware action generation. As a result, OSWAM can efficiently and effectively generate high quality actions in just one diffusion step. Our experiments demonstrate that OSWAM achieves comparable or even better results in both autonomous driving and embodied control than direct-policy WAM and Joint-WAM that require tens of steps. It obtains approximately $3\times$ speedup over direct-policy WAM baselines and supports real-time compiled inference with latency as low as 40ms on an NVIDIA RTX 5090 GPU.

While dataset distillation has witnessed significant advances in image classification, its extension to dense prediction tasks such as semantic segmentation is plagued by two core bottlenecks: bi-level optimization-based approaches suffer from prohibitive computational costs stemming from pixel-wise gradient unrolling, whereas proxy-based generative methods merely infuse visual textures into fixed semantic masks derived from real data, thus failing to condense rich semantic knowledge into a compact set of informative, novel scene generations. To address both bottlenecks simultaneously, we propose a novel Sample-Set Reinforcement Learning (S$^2$-RL) framework for generative semantic segmentation dataset distillation (SSDD). Specifically, S$^2$-RL formulates SSDD as a diffusion model based text-to-image generation paradigm, enabling flexible generation of images with informative, novel semantic distributions via a concise text prompt. Furthermore, we fine-tune a diffusion policy via Group Relative Policy Optimization (GRPO), leveraging a sample-set dual reward paradigm: for individual samples, it enforces semantic alignment with input text prompts and intra-class feature diversity; for sample sets, it maximizes inter-sample semantic distribution diversity by solving a contextual multi-armed bandit problem. These design choices enable S$^2$-RL to distill large-scale semantic segmentation datasets into a compact set of generated samples that encapsulate diverse, informative semantic knowledge without the need of pixel-wise gradient unrolling. Extensive experiments on the ADE20K and COCO datasets demonstrate that S$^2$-RL achieves substantial and consistent improvements over state-of-the-art baselines, establishing a new benchmark for SSDD.

While scaling laws for large language models (LLMs) during pre-training have been extensively studied, their behavior under reinforcement learning (RL) post-training remains largely unexplored. This paper investigates the scaling behavior of Large Language Model (LLM) reinforcement learning post-training, focusing on mathematical reasoning. Through experiments across the Qwen2.5 series (0.5B to 72B), we characterize how model scale, data, and compute interact. Our analysis yields four key findings: 1. Larger models consistently demonstrate superior compute and data efficiency. 2. The relationship between model performance and training resources follows a predictive power-law across both base and instruction-tuned models. 3. RL learning efficiency exhibits a latent saturation trend with increasing model scale. 4. In data-constrained regimes, performance is primarily driven by the total volume of training data rather than sample uniqueness. These results offer practical guidelines for scaling reasoning capabilities through reinforcement learning post-training.

Large Language Models (LLMs) exhibit enhanced capabilities by Chain-of-Thought reasoning. However, the extended reasoning sequences introduce significant GPU memory overhead due to increased key-value (KV) cache. Existing KV cache compression methods mitigate memory bottlenecks but struggle in long reasoning tasks. In this paper, we analyze attention patterns in reasoning tasks and reveal a Token Importance Recurrence phenomenon: a large proportion of tokens regain high attention after multiple decoding steps, which is failed to capture by existing works and may lead to unpredictable eviction on such periodically critical tokens. To address this, we propose LazyEviction, an observation window-based lagged eviction framework retaining latent recurring tokens by prioritized eviction based on tokens’ recurrence patterns. Extensive experiments demonstrate that LazyEviction reduces KV cache by 50% 70% while maintaining comparable accuracy, outperforming existing KV cache baselines. Our implementation code can be found at https://github.com/Halo-949/LazyEviction.

The dominant Fill-in-the-Middle (FIM) paradigm for code completion is constrained by its rigid inability to correct contextual errors and reliance on unaligned, insecure Base models. While Chat LLMs offer safety and Agentic workflows provide flexibility, they suffer from performance degradation and prohibitive latency, respectively. To resolve this dilemma, we propose Search-and-Replace Infilling (SRI), a framework that internalizes the agentic verification-and-editing mechanism into a unified, single-pass inference process. By structurally grounding edits via an explicit search phase, SRI harmonizes completion tasks with the instruction-following priors of Chat LLMs, extending the paradigm from static infilling to dynamic context-aware editing. We synthesize a high-quality dataset, SRI-200K, and fine-tune the SRI-Coder series. Extensive evaluations demonstrate that with minimal data (20k samples), SRI-Coder enables Chat models to surpass the completion performance of their Base counterparts. Crucially, unlike FIM-style tuning, SRI preserves general coding competencies and maintains inference latency comparable to standard FIM. We release our dataset and models, establishing SRI as a robust, secure, and efficient alignment recipe for next-generation interactive development.

Fine-tuning-as-a-service, while commercially successful for Large Language Model (LLM) providers, exposes models to harmful fine-tuning attacks. As a widely explored defense paradigm against such attacks, unlearning attempts to remove malicious knowledge from LLMs, thereby essentially preventing them from being used to perform malicious tasks. However, we highlight a critical flaw: the inherent general adaptability of LLMs allows them to easily bypass selective unlearning by rapidly relearning or repurposing their general capabilities for harmful tasks. To address this fundamental limitation, we propose a paradigm shift: instead of selective removal, we advocate for inducing model collapse, effectively forcing the model to ”unlearn everything”, specifically in response to updates characteristic of malicious adaptation. This collapse directly neutralizes the very general capabilities that attackers exploit, tackling the core issue unaddressed by selective unlearning. We introduce the Collapse Trap (CTRAP) as a practical mechanism to implement this concept conditionally. Embedded during alignment, CTRAP pre-configures the model’s reaction to subsequent fine-tuning dynamics. If updates during fine-tuning constitute a persistent attempt to reverse safety alignment, the pre-configured trap triggers a progressive degradation of the model’s core language modeling abilities, ultimately rendering it inert and useless for the attacker. Crucially, this collapse mechanism remains dormant during benign fine-tuning, ensuring the model’s utility and general capabilities are preserved.

Codec-based language models (LMs) have revolutionized text-to-speech (TTS). However, standard codecs entangle timbre and prosody, which hinders independent control in continuation-based LMs. To tackle this challenge, we propose DisCo-Speech, a zero-shot controllable TTS framework featuring a disentangled speech codec (DisCodec) and an LM-based generator. The core component DisCodec employs a two-stage design: 1) tri-factor disentanglement to separate speech into content, prosody, and timbre subspaces via parallel encoders and hybrid losses; and 2) fusion and reconstruction that merges content and prosody into unified content-prosody tokens suitable for LM prediction, while jointly optimizing reconstruction to address the disentanglement-reconstruction trade-off. This allows the LM to perform prosodic continuation from a style prompt while the decoder injects target timbre, enabling flexible zero-shot control. Experiments demonstrate that DisCo-Speech achieves competitive voice cloning and superior zero-shot prosody control. By resolving the core entanglement at the codec level, DisCo-Speech provides a robust foundation for controllable speech synthesis. Audio samples are available at: https://disco-speech.github.io/DisCo-demo/. Code and weights will be released at: https://github.com/disco-speech/DisCo-Speech upon acceptance.

In this report, we introduce the Gemini 1.5 family of models, representing the next generation of highly compute-efficient multimodal models capable of recalling and reasoning over fine-grained information from millions of tokens of context, including multiple long documents and hours of video and audio. The family includes two new models: (1) an updated Gemini 1.5 Pro, which exceeds the February version on the great majority of capabilities and benchmarks; (2) Gemini 1.5 Flash, a more lightweight variant designed for efficiency with minimal regression in quality. Gemini 1.5 models achieve near-perfect recall on long-context retrieval tasks across modalities, improve the state-of-the-art in long-document QA, long-video QA and long-context ASR, and match or surpass Gemini 1.0 Ultra's state-of-the-art performance across a broad set of benchmarks. Studying the limits of Gemini 1.5's long-context ability, we find continued improvement in next-token prediction and near-perfect retrieval (>99%) up to at least 10M tokens, a generational leap over existing models such as Claude 3.0 (200k) and GPT-4 Turbo (128k). Finally, we highlight real-world use cases, such as Gemini 1.5 collaborating with professionals on completing their tasks achieving 26 to 75% time savings across 10 different job categories, as well as surprising new capabilities of large language models at the frontier; when given a grammar manual for Kalamang, a language with fewer than 200 speakers worldwide, the model learns to translate English to Kalamang at a similar level to a person who learned from the same content.
