Ontology matching (OM) enables semantic interoperability between different ontologies and resolves their conceptual heterogeneity by aligning related entities. OM systems currently have two prevailing design paradigms: conventional knowledge-based expert systems and newer machine learning-based predictive systems. While large language models (LLMs) and LLM agents have revolutionised data engineering and have been applied creatively in many domains, their potential for OM remains underexplored. This study introduces a novel agent-powered LLM-based design paradigm for OM systems. With consideration of several specific challenges in leveraging LLM agents for OM, we propose a generic framework, namely Agent-OM (Agent for Ontology Matching), consisting of two Siamese agents for retrieval and matching, with a set of OM tools. Our framework is implemented in a proof-of-concept system. Evaluations of three Ontology Alignment Evaluation Initiative (OAEI) tracks over state-of-the-art OM systems show that our system can achieve results very close to the long-standing best performance on simple OM tasks and can significantly improve the performance on complex and few-shot OM tasks.

Perceptual quality enhancement of severely compressed videos remains challenging due to complex artifact patterns and substantial information loss. Recent diffusion models have demonstrated strong generative capability for visual restoration, but directly applying them to compressed video often ignores compression degradation characteristics and may introduce structure-inconsistent hallucinations. To address this issue, this paper presents a diffusion-based compressed video enhancement method, named DiffCVE. Coding Prior-enhanced Dual Conditioning (CPDC) branches are designed to jointly model compressed video and coding prior conditions, where coding priors including residuals and motion vectors provide complementary structural and motion guidance during the diffusion denoising process. To make the diffusion process aware of compression severity, a Compression Degradation Semantic Prompting (CDSP) mechanism is introduced to leverage QP-conditioned textual prompts together with LoRA fine-tuning. In addition, a Coding Prior-guided Weighted Fusion (CPWF) module is incorporated into the VAE decoder to fuse VAE encoder and coding prior encoder features with QP-predicted weights. Extensive experiments demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method in improving perceptual quality, especially under severe compression settings.

Recent advances in frontier models have pushed the boundaries of agentic robot control, enabling agents to perform complex robotic tasks through reasoning and interaction. However, repeated calls to these models during execution can substantially increase task completion time. Code as Policies (CaP) offers a route for coding agents to acquire physical skills through experience and retain them in executable programs, allowing the reasoning invested in development to be reused across runs. Developing reliable code policies while limiting the cost of physical experimentation remains a central challenge. We investigate human guidance as a source of priors for feasible actions and simulation as an auxiliary environment for exploring and testing candidate policies. Our findings favor robot demonstrations available on request and simulation used selectively during real-world policy refinement. These findings inform ACE-CaP-0, an agentic recipe that couples policy revision with experience acquisition through Demonstrations on Request and Simulation on Demand. Across eight real-world manipulation tasks spanning alignment, multi-object handling, and bimanual coordination, the resulting frozen programs achieve 92.1\% success (221/240 trials). Mean execution times across tasks range from 0.97 to 2.27 minutes. The programs execute with runtime perception and control, without a human or coding agent in the loop. These results highlight CaP's potential to turn experience into reliable, reusable physical skills.

Pretrained video diffusion models (VDMs) offer a powerful foundation for World Action Models (WAMs), which jointly predict robot actions and future observations. Building such models requires injecting low-dimensional robot signals (e.g. proprioception, actions, and values) into a latent space shaped by natural videos, and a key design choice is the interface through which these signals enter: existing schemes treat it as a formatting detail, spending a separate latent frame on each signal or bolting on dedicated encoders and decoders. We argue that signal injection is instead a distribution-alignment problem: how well a representation matches the prior of the pretrained VDMs during denoising. Using the relative reconstruction error of a frozen VDM denoiser as a probe, we find that conventional spatial encodings sit far off this prior, whereas frequency-domain packing yields latents that the denoiser corrects far less. Motivated by this diagnostic result, we propose MetaWAM, which folds all robot signals into a single unified meta-frame: each signal is assigned to a disjoint frequency-domain channel band and lifted to the spatial latent by an inverse DCT, yielding a decodable interface aligned with the pretrained VDM prior without any added module or architectural change. A fixed band layout together with slot-aware routing lets the same meta-frame support policy, world-model, and value prediction over a shared set of robot variables. On RoboCasa, MetaWAM reaches 68.9% success while collapsing the per-signal frames into one and cutting inference latency by 39%, and attains 85.0% success on three real-world Franka tasks.

Evaluating candidate parallelization strategies through distributed training runs makes strategy selection prohibitively expensive at scale. Performance simulation offers a lower cost alternative, yet controlled comparisons among existing simulators remain difficult because they differ in the training stages they model and the workloads on which they are evaluated. We introduce LM-SimBench, a unified framework, profiling dataset, and benchmark for evaluating LLM training simulators. The framework decomposes simulation into functional stages from model compilation to schedule level aggregation, connecting execution representations and cost estimators to measurable evaluation targets. Following this framework, we profile 23 model settings from 10 dense and Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) LLM families on an Ascend Neural Processing Unit (NPU) cluster. The resulting dataset contains 348 feasible configurations that jointly vary five parallelism dimensions and activation recomputation, with six views spanning configuration, rank, operator, event, and kernel granularity. Evaluations of representative training simulators demonstrate how LM-SimBench supports comparisons of prediction accuracy, assessment of configuration selection, and diagnosis of prediction errors. Matched GPU-NPU experiments validate the cross-platform applicability of the collection and evaluation protocol and demonstrate NPU-guided GPU configuration selection.
