Instruction-guided video editing requires executing a requested change while preserving the source video's appearance and temporal structure. We present SemantiScene-Edit, a video editor that couples a multimodal encoder with a pretrained video diffusion transformer. The encoder jointly processes source frames and the editing instruction, and learnable queries convey their semantic context to the generator through a trainable connector and cross-attention. A complementary visual pathway concatenates source-video latents with noisy target latents before patch embedding, supplying dense spatial and temporal information for content preservation. We train the model with flow matching and a three-stage image--video curriculum comprising semantic alignment, joint adaptation, and high-resolution refinement. To support training, we construct over 1.2 million instruction-conditioned video-editing records covering object addition, removal, replacement, and attribute modification. We also construct a 100-case benchmark for evaluating instruction execution, source preservation, temporal consistency, and visual quality. Comparative experiments show that SemantiScene-Edit effectively follows editing instructions while retaining source content. At inference, the model requires only a source video and a natural-language instruction.
Frozen vision-language-action (VLA) policies generate temporally extended action chunks, but long-horizon manipulation remains vulnerable to accumulated execution error and visual aliasing across task stages. Successful rollouts provide useful corrective evidence, yet current frame retrieval can return progress-misaligned actions,while direct replay or time-domain fusion can overwrite the reactive structure of the policy proposal. We introduce Retrieve in Time, Correct in Frequency (RTCF), a training-free test-time correction framework that improves frozen VLA performance with low model-side overhead.RTCF separates which experience to retrieve from which part of its action to transfer. Progressive Memory Alignment (PMA) causally aligns the growing visual execution history with complete successful trajectories through incrementally updated monotonic frontiers, jointly identifying a relevant memory and the current aligned memory position without stage labels. From the aligned action chunk,RTCF transfers a coefficient-wise-clipped low-frequency residual on motion channels. Higher-frequency components and gripper decisions remain inherited from the frozen policy. Across four LIBERO suites and 2,000 episodes per condition, RTCF raises aggregate success from 86.4% to 88.4% and improves LIBERO-Long from 61.6% to 68.6%.These gains require no parameter updates, repeated VLA inference, or additional GPU resources: correction can be performed on the client CPU after a single policy invocation, and the median latencies sum to only 10.99 ms per action chunk
World action models (WAMs) predict the visual consequences of the actions they generate, which makes test-time selection a natural way to improve a fixed policy: imagine the futures of candidate actions and execute the best one. The benefit of selection is bounded by the selectable headroom, how much better the best candidate truly is, but the standard estimate, which executes each candidate once and keeps the best outcome, conflates candidate quality with the randomness of everything that follows. We introduce a denoised counterfactual protocol, based on bitwise-reproducible branching, repeated continuations, held-out oracles, and common random numbers, that measures the headroom a selector can realize, and use its measurements to build a fail-gated selector. Across four WAMs, two benchmarks, over 100,000 branched rollouts, and pre-registered tests, we find that (i) the standard estimate overstates the selectable headroom of native samples: bounds from 17 continuations per candidate place its selectable share between 24% and 66% for three WAMs; (ii) structured action perturbations create up to 16 points of selectable headroom; and (iii) in both WAMs with action-conditioned imagination, imagined futures carry candidate-outcome information with no detectable loss relative to real futures, information that the value head of Cosmos Policy leaves unused. Deviating from the policy chunk only when a readout of the WAM predicts failure, the selector raises closed-loop task success from 76.9% to 81.6% on held-out episodes of training tasks, with the largest gain where the policy fails most often, and from 62.6% to 69.8% on unseen tasks.
The powerful generative capacity of Large Language Models (LLMs) has instigated a paradigm shift in recommendation. However, existing generative models (e.g., OneRec) operate as implicit predictors, critically lacking the capacity for explicit and controllable reasoning—a key advantage of LLMs. To bridge this gap, we propose OneRec-Think, a unified framework that seamlessly integrates dialogue, reasoning, and personalized recommendation. OneRec-Think incorporates: (1) Itemic Alignment: cross-modal Item-Textual Alignment for semantic grounding; (2) Reasoning Activation: Reasoning Scaffolding to activate LLM reasoning within the recommendation context; and (3) Reasoning Enhancement, where we design a recommendation-specific reward function that accounts for the multi-validity nature of user preferences. Experiments across public benchmarks show state-of-the-art performance. Moreover, our proposed “Think-Ahead” architecture enables effective industrial deployment, achieving a 0.159% gain in APP Stay Time and validating the practical efficacy of the model’s explicit reasoning capability.

Despite the growing adoption of large language models (LLMs) in academic workflows, their capabilities remain limited in supporting high-quality scientific writing. Most existing systems are designed for general-purpose scientific text generation and fail to meet the sophisticated demands of research communication beyond surface-level polishing, for example, maintaining conceptual coherence across sections. Furthermore, academic writing is inherently iterative and revision-driven, a process that is not well supported by direct prompting-based paradigms. To address these scenarios, we propose a human-AI collaboration framework for academic paper revision, centered on criteria-guided intent alignment and context-aware modeling. To validate the framework, we curate a dataset of 7,000 research papers from top-tier venues, annotated with 140,000 instruction–response pairs that reflect realistic, section-level scientific revisions. We instantiate the framework in XtraGPT, the first suite of open-source LLMs (1.5B to 14B parameters) specifically fine-tuned for context-aware academic paper revision. Extensive experiments show that XtraGPT significantly outperforms same-scale baselines and rivals the quality of proprietary counterparts. Both automated preference assessments and human evaluations confirm the effectiveness of XtraGPT in improving scientific drafts. Our code and models are available at https://github.com/Xtra-Computing/XtraGPT and https://huggingface.co/collections/Xtra-Computing/xtragpt.
