Fine-grained cross-view localization aims to precisely localize a ground camera against geo-referenced aerial imagery, but current methods typically assume a narrow geographic prior, substantially limiting their applicability when upstream localization remains coarse. To bridge this gap, we study this task over much larger aerial regions. However, this seemingly simple extension fundamentally changes the localization problem: the growing disparity in spatial extent between ground and aerial views makes reliable cross-view matching difficult to establish directly, while the increasing number of look-alike locations in larger regions introduces substantial visual ambiguity. To address these challenges, we propose RingMatch, a search-and-verification framework for wide-area cross-view localization. RingMatch first leverages predictive uncertainty to uncover plausible locations and progressively zooms into their surroundings to obtain increasingly fine-grained evidence, yielding a compact set of promising candidates. We then introduce the depth ring, a novel geometric representation that reveals subtle variations in the spatial layout around a location and serves as a view-shared spatial signature for an LVLM verifier to resolve residual ambiguity. To benchmark this setting, we construct VIGOR-Pro by composing VIGOR aerial tiles into contiguous regions with spatial extents of up to 400 m. Experiments show that RingMatch maintains strong localization performance as the aerial region expands, consistently outperforming representative end-to-end and retrieval-based methods.

Long-term memory enables large language model (LLM) agents to provide continuous personalized assistance by retaining user information across interactions. Existing systems support this process through fact extraction, organization, updating, and retrieval, but largely maintain memories as independent facts. This fact-centric paradigm may overlook how new facts update, constrain, or conflict with earlier ones, while leaving their applicability, role, and priority for the current request implicit. In this paper, we introduce EvoMemState, a state-centric framework that augments persistent facts with two complementary states: Relational States that capture how facts remain valid and relate to one another as memory evolves, and a Reasoning State that determines how these facts should be applied to the current request. Specifically, EvoMemState consists of three key components: (i) Ontology-Guided Memory State Induction extracts Persistent Facts and constructs Relational States that maintain their validity, scope, and evolving relations. (ii) RL-Based State Evolution internalizes memory-use experience into a policy through reinforcement learning to generate a request-specific Reasoning State. (iii) State-Aware Reasoning then combines the relevant facts with their Relational States and the generated Reasoning State to guide the personal agent. Extensive experiments on long-term dialogue and memory-use benchmarks demonstrate consistent improvements over existing memory systems in retrieval completeness and memory-grounded response accuracy.

Reinforcement Learning with Verifiable Reward (RLVR) has proven effective for training reasoning-oriented large language models, but existing methods largely assume high-resource settings with abundant training data. In low-resource scenarios, RLVR is prone to more severe entropy collapse, which substantially limits exploration and degrades reasoning performance. To address this issue, we propose Hybrid-domain Entropy dynamics ALignment (HEAL), a framework tailored for few-shot RLVR. HEAL first selectively incorporates high-value general-domain data to promote more diverse exploration. Then, we introduce Entropy Dynamics Alignment (EDA), a reward mechanism that aligns trajectory-level entropy dynamics between the target and general domains, capturing both entropy magnitude and fine-grained variation. Through this alignment, EDA not only further mitigates entropy collapse but also encourages the policy to acquire more diverse exploration behaviors from the general domain. Experiments across multiple domains show that HEAL consistently improves few-shot RLVR performance. Notably, using only 32 target-domain samples, HEAL matches or even surpasses full-shot RLVR trained with 1K target-domain samples.
