Industrial candidate-ranking systems must combine long user behavior histories with heterogeneous user and item features under strict computational budgets. We propose CCFormer, a structured interaction architecture that separates cross-field retrieval from intra-history modeling. Feature-field-separated cross-attention allows user and target queries to read an evolving history hierarchy, while local subspace token mixing contextualizes history tokens independently of candidate targets. Hierarchical sequence compression reduces the number of history tokens and provides multi-scale historical context for subsequent interactions. Experiments on two public benchmarks show higher mean AUC than the evaluated baselines, while experiments on a large-scale industrial dataset show a favorable accuracy-compute trade-off and higher training throughput than HSTU. Online A/B tests across four recommendation and advertising scenarios report system-level improvements of up to 3.57% in click-through rate, 3.86% in page views, and 1.71% in advertising revenue relative to the corresponding production baselines. CCFormer has been fully deployed in all four scenarios, demonstrating its practical scalability and effectiveness in large-scale recommendation systems.

Standard Large Language Model (LLM) pre-training typically treats corpora as flattened token sequences, often overlooking the real-world context that humans naturally rely on to contextualize information. To bridge this gap, we introduce Knowledge Coordinate Conditioning (KoCo), a simple method that maps every document into a three-dimensional semantic coordinate. By prepending these coordinates as textual prefixes for pre-training, we aim to equip the model with explicit contextual awareness to learn the documents within the real-world knowledge structure. Experiment results demonstrate that KoCo significantly enhances performance across 10 downstream tasks and accelerates pre-training convergence by approximately 30%. Furthermore, our analysis indicates that explicitly modeling knowledge coordinates helps the model distinguish stable facts from noise, effectively mitigating hallucination in generated outputs.

Recent advances in text-to-audio-video (T2AV) generation have enabled models to synthesize audio-visual videos with multi-participant dialogues. However, existing evaluation benchmarks remain largely designed for human-recorded videos or single-speaker settings. As a result, structural failures in generated multi-talker dialogue videos, such as identity drift, unnatural turn transitions, and audio-visual misalignment, cannot be effectively diagnosed. To address this issue, we introduce MTAVG-Bench, a failure-driven diagnostic benchmark for multi-talker dialogue-centric audio-video generation. MTAVG-Bench is built via a semi-automatic pipeline, where 1.8k videos are generated using mainstream T2AV models with carefully designed prompts, yielding 2.4k manually annotated QA pairs for fine-grained failure diagnosis. The benchmark evaluates multi-speaker dialogue generation at four levels: audio-visual signal fidelity, temporal attribute consistency, social interaction, and cinematic expression. Built on a hierarchical failure taxonomy and a targeted QA protocol, MTAVG-Bench is primarily designed to evaluate whether proprietary and open-source omni-models can reliably identify failure modes in multi-speaker T2AV outputs. We benchmark 12 proprietary and open-source omni-models on MTAVG-Bench, with Gemini 3 Pro achieving the strongest overall performance, while leading open-source models remain competitive in signal fidelity and consistency. Overall, MTAVG-Bench enables fine-grained failure analysis for rigorous model comparison and targeted video generation refinement.
