Multi-image composition (MICo) is a critical yet challenging capability for large-scale image editing models, where consistency degrades rapidly as the number of reference images increases. While supervised fine-tuning (SFT) can equip models with basic MICo ability, it provides only implicit supervision on the composed image and often fails to learn reliable object-level correspondence across multiple references. We propose DeCoRL, a reinforcement-learning (RL) framework that improves MICo consistency by decomposing holistic MICo consistency into object-level consistency. DeCoRL first establishes instruction-relevant object correspondences across reference images and localizes the corresponding regions in the generated image. It then uses a VLM-based reward model trained on single-object consistency annotations to produce fine-grained, object-wise feedback, which is aggregated into a multi-object consistency reward to guide RL post-training. We further introduce DeCo-Bench, a benchmark covering compositions from 2 to 6 reference images. Experiments on DeCo-Bench and the public MICo-Bench demonstrate consistent improvements in MICo consistency.

Modeling fine-grained speaking styles remains challenging for language-speech representation pre-training, as existing speech-text models are typically trained with coarse captions or task-specific supervision, and scalable fine-grained style annotations are unavailable. We present FCaps, a large-scale dataset with fine-grained free-text style descriptions, encompassing 47k hours of speech and 19M fine-grained captions annotated via a novel end-to-end pipeline that directly grounds detailed captions in audio, thereby avoiding the error propagation caused by LLM-based rewriting in existing cascaded pipelines. Evaluations using LLM-as-a-judge demonstrate that our annotations surpass existing cascaded annotations in terms of correctness, coverage, and naturalness. Building on FCaps, we propose CLSP, a contrastive language-speech pre-trained model that integrates global and fine-grained supervision, enabling unified representations across multiple granularities. Extensive experiments demonstrate that CLSP learns fine-grained and multi-granular speech-text representations that perform reliably across global and fine-grained speech-text retrieval, zero-shot paralinguistic classification, and speech style similarity scoring, with strong alignment to human judgments. Code and dataset are publicly available at https://github.com/yfyeung/CLSP.

Despite recent progress in context compression, we identify a fundamental memorization-utilization gap where models can compress context with near-perfect fidelity yet fail to effectively utilize these compressed representations for downstream tasks. We address this with a holistic training paradigm spanning pretraining, instruction tuning, and reinforcement learning, built upon an average pooling compression. Our key innovation uses outcome-based RL to enable implicit expansion: the model learns to adaptively unfold task-relevant details during generation, interleaving reconstruction with reasoning. We achieve near-lossless 16x context compression (≈5.3x decoder sequence-length reduction in our current implementation) across 7B and 32B models, recovering over 98% of full-context QA performance and outperforming prior methods by 11 points. Our 32B model demonstrates strong out-of-distribution and length generalization, robustly scaling to 120k-token contexts despite training on no more than 4k tokens, matching full-context performance on NIAH, LongBench v2, and multi-hop reasoning. We verify the implicit expansion behavior in experiments.

MLLM-based GUI agents have demonstrated strong capabilities in complex user interface interaction tasks. However, long-horizon scenarios remain challenging, as these agents are burdened with tasks beyond their intrinsic capabilities, suffering from memory degradation, progress confusion, and math hallucination. To address these challenges, we present \textbf{UI-Copilot}, a collaborative framework where the GUI agent focuses on task execution while a lightweight copilot provides on-demand assistance for memory retrieval and numerical computation. We introduce memory decoupling to separate persistent observations from transient execution context, and train the policy agent to selectively invoke the copilot as Retriever or Calculator based on task demands. To enable effective tool invocation learning, we propose \underline{\textbf{T}}ool-\underline{\textbf{I}}ntegrated \underline{\textbf{P}}olicy \underline{\textbf{O}}ptimization (\textbf{TIPO}), which separately optimizes tool selection through single-turn prediction and task execution through on-policy multi-turn rollouts. Experimental results show that UI-Copilot-7B achieves state-of-the-art performance on challenging MemGUI-Bench, outperforming strong 7B-scale GUI agents such as GUI-Owl-7B and UI-TARS-1.5-7B. Moreover, UI-Copilot-7B delivers a 17.1% absolute improvement on AndroidWorld over the base Qwen model, highlighting UI-Copilot’s strong generalization to real-world GUI tasks.
