The rapid development of mobile imaging and social platforms has led to explosive growth in user-generated content images, making their systematic and comprehensive perceptual assessment increasingly important. Existing image perception benchmarks are typically task-oriented, curating specific scenarios for quality or aesthetic assessment and applying a uniform perceptual criterion across diverse scenarios. This limits their ability to capture the scene diversity and perceptual complexity of real-world UGC images. To address these limitations, we introduce ScenePercept-Bench, a benchmark designed to reflect the distribution of real-world UGC images, comprising 23,100 images across 21 categories and 105 fine-grained scenes. To account for the influence of scene context on human perception, we design a hierarchical, scene-aware annotation protocol, covering visual quality, aesthetic perception, and scene semantics, with 15 attributes in total. Each image is annotated with an overall score, 15 attribute-level scores, and structured explanatory reasoning. Building on this benchmark, we further introduce Scenario-Conditioned Perceptual Alignment, a training framework that tackles the heterogeneity of perceptual criteria across scenarios. SCPA jointly optimizes absolute score prediction, preference ranking, and cross-scenario calibration, preserving the model general perceptual assessment ability while encouraging it to explore and adapt perceptual criteria across different scenarios. Extensive experiments demonstrate that SCPA achieves state-of-the-art performance in UGC image perception and generalizes effectively to established IQA and IAA benchmarks.

Large language models (LLMs) have remarkable capabilities, but adapting them to specialized domains poses a fundamental question: how should accumulated experience be represented and leveraged? Existing approaches represent experience either as explicit textual artifacts in prompts (e.g., retrieved documents or dialogues) or implicitly within model weights via fine-tuning (e.g., LoRA adapters). However, textual methods are limited by context windows and cannot internalize knowledge, while parametric fine-tuning yields one adapter per task with minimal cross-task skill reuse. We propose ReX (Reusable eXperience), an experience-centric adaptation framework that treats latent experiences — recurring reasoning patterns and skills — as fundamental units for LLM specialization. Our method learns a shared Experience Bank of foundational skill vectors and uses a VAE-based encoder to map each input to a low-dimensional experience code. An Experience Router then dynamically composes the relevant skill vectors from this bank into a lightweight adapter for that input. By reusing skills across inputs, ReX enables implicit knowledge sharing across tasks without any explicit task identifiers. Experiments on multi-task NLP benchmarks show that this approach outperforms standard task-specific fine-tuning, yielding improved generalization through flexible skill reuse.

Recent progress in large language models (LLMs) is largely driven by scaling training compute through either pre-training with next-token prediction (NTP) or post-training with reinforcement learning (RL). The former contributes to learning broad knowledge and skills from general data, while struggling with data inefficiency and catastrophic forgetting in continual learning settings. The latter incentivizes reasoning capabilities with strong generalization, but is constrained by limited data availability due to its reliance on human annotation. To alleviate these issues, we propose Reinforcement Learning on Pre-Training data (RLPT), which combines the advantages of learning from general data and RL. In particular, RLPT derives reward signals directly from general text data through a next-segment reasoning objective, rewarding the policy for correctly predicting next text segments conditioned on the prefix text. Experiments across multiple benchmarks and models demonstrate the effectiveness of . For example, RLPT yields substantial improvements in continual pre-training (+4.6\%) and provides a strong foundation for post-training (+3.4\%) on Qwen3-8B-Base.
