FlashMotion: Ultra-Fast Long-Term 3D Motion Generation

Kaixing Yang, Xulong Tang, Ronghui Li, Xiangyue Zhang, Ziqiao Peng, Mingshuang Luo, Chenxi Zhao, Haoyu Wu 等 13 位作者

原文摘要

3D human motion generation plays a crucial role in game development, extended reality (XR), digital humans, and embodied simulation. Beyond motion generation, practical pipelines include rigging, retargeting, and rendering, making ultra-fast long-term 3D motion generation without compromising quality valuable for real-time interactive applications. Despite promising progress, high-quality long-horizon motion generation under tight inference budgets remains challenging, owing to 2 coupled bottlenecks: (1) generative strategies that require many sampling steps for high-quality 3D motion generation and (2) model architectures with substantial per-step computational and memory costs for long sequences. We present FlashMotion, a co-designed framework for high-quality long-horizon 3D motion generation under a strict inference budget, covering text-to-motion, music-to-dance, and speech-to-gesture tasks. To enhance trajectory-level efficiency, we introduce a 3D motion-space MeanFlow formulation with kinematic and dynamic consistency constraints for few-step generation, together with an Adaptive Soft masking mechanism for temporally coherent motion editing. To improve per-step efficiency, we design a lightweight non-autoregressive BiMamba architecture with condition-guided state selection and AdaIN-based condition fusion mechanism, enhancing cross-modal alignment and generalization to longer motion sequences. Extensive experiments demonstrate that FlashMotion achieves overall state-of-the-art performance in both quality and efficiency across text-to-motion, speech-to-gesture, and music-to-dance generation.

Science Prediction Universe

Zengji Tu, Xiang Liu, Jiarui Sun, Ruoyu Wu, Zhihui Qi, Chengda Wu, Yutao Zhou, Bo Yang 等 36 位作者

原文摘要

Humanity has long sought to explain natural phenomena. Reliable prediction of experimental outcomes is a central test of our understanding of the processes that produce them. If artificial general intelligence (AGI) is to surpass human scientific capabilities, it must also predict experimental outcomes more reliably than humans. Such capabilities could accelerate scientific discovery across disciplines, help address humanity's most pressing challenges, and improve human well-being. We introduce Science Prediction Universe (SPU), a benchmark of hidden experimental outcomes with 100 public verified tasks from chemistry, materials science, biology and medicine, and 16 private tasks from unpublished wet-lab experiments. Given an experimental setup and candidate conditions, an agent works with any resources it needs to rank the candidates by a measured outcome. We evaluate thirteen agent configurations spanning twelve frontier models across two harnesses (Codex and Claude Code). Current agents remain far from saturating wet-lab outcome prediction, with substantial performance disparities across models: on the public benchmark, configurations separate into two distinct tiers, with task-adjusted Spearman correlations ranging from 0.227 for the lowest-performing configuration to 0.478 for the best. Analysis of 1,155 scored public trajectories (227,103 tool calls) suggests that the bottleneck lies in scientific judgment rather than tool execution: agents rely on shared monotone priors, agreeing far more with one another than with experimental reality (0.52 vs. 0.33), and frequently compute trivial physical or chemical proxies that do not influence the final outcome.

From Fluent Text to Ontology-Compatible Definitions: A Quality-Control Agentic Workflow

Kun Feng, Chenchen Chu, Yan Liu, Haojie Sun, Jijun Tang, Chen Tian, Shuolin Xiao, Jianping He 等 9 位作者

原文摘要

Biomedical ontologies are structured knowledge systems that must evolve continuously to represent newly emerging knowledge, but their manual maintenance remains time-consuming and laborintensive. Textual definitions are especially costly because they must be readable to humans and compatible with controlled entities, relations, and logical constraints. Large language models (LLMs) offer a promising way to assist ontology engineering tasks, including definition generation. However, textual plausibility does not guarantee knowledge-system compatibility. A generated definition may be fluent and close to a reference definition, yet still fail to ground its implied entities or violate ontology-level constraints. Directly inserting such definitions into ontology libraries may therefore introduce entity-level hallucinations and logical inconsistencies. To address this problem, we propose two structured-knowledge incompatibility metrics, Entity Error Rate (EER) and Logical Inconsistency Rate (LIR), to quantify entity grounding and logical consistency for LLM-generated ontology definitions. We further develop an agentic quality-control (QC) workflow that treats definition generation as an iterative process rather than a direct decoding step: it generates definitions, extracts axioms, checks entity existence and logical consistency, and uses the resulting diagnostics to drive repair loops. Comprehensive experiments on Disease Ontology, Uberon Ontology, and Uberon-ConstraintStress demonstrate that EER and LIR complement conventional reference-based metrics by evaluating whether generated content can be grounded and checked inside the target ontology. The workflow effectively decreases EER while maintaining strong conventional text-generation performance. LIR further exposes sparse ontology-level logical failures that are invisible to text similarity metrics, although their repair remains limited.

PPG2ECG: Physiology-Guided Latent Rectified Flow for Electro-Hemodynamic PPG-to-ECG Generation

Xiaoda Wang, Minxiao Wang, Kaiqiao Han, Defu Cao, Ching Chang, Yidan Shi, Runze Yan, Xiao Luo 等 13 位作者

原文摘要

Electrocardiography (ECG) is the clinical standard for cardiac assessment but requires dedicated hardware that does not scale to daily-life monitoring. Photoplethysmography (PPG) is ubiquitous in wearables but lacks ECG-specific diagnostic morphology and is corrupted by motion and sensor noise. PPG-to-ECG generation aims to bridge this gap by recovering electrical morphology and timing from peripheral pulse signals. However, existing methods largely rely on statistical alignment and data-driven generation. They fail to explicitly structure the latent space around physiology-aware electro-hemodynamic factors and lack constraints from forward physiological dynamics. To address these challenges, we propose PPG2ECG, a physiology-guided latent rectified flow framework. PPG2ECG introduces an electro-hemodynamic simulator that co-models ECG and PPG through shared cardiac phase dynamics. Guided by this simulator, a Physiology-Aware AutoEncoder learns a structured electro-hemodynamic latent space. Then we integrate this simulator guidance into a PPG-conditioned latent rectified flow, enforcing ECG-side morphology consistency and ECG-to-PPG forward hemodynamic consistency during generative transport. Experiments on the large-scale MC-MED dataset demonstrate that PPG2ECG significantly improves PPG-to-ECG generation and downstream cardiovascular disease classification, proving its ability to generate ECGs that are both signal-faithful and physiologically plausible under the ECG-to-PPG hemodynamic pathway

Task presentation and execution paths shape LLM mathematical performance

Min Huang, Mingyan Liu

原文摘要

Mathematical performance depends on how a language model receives information, uses generated text and submits an answer. We study these dependencies through paired comparisons that separate submission requirements, draft reuse and candidate availability. On 65 development problems, an instruction permitting continued derivation produced no valid final answers in 390 short-output calls; a single-line submission instruction produced 390 format-valid outputs, including 389 parseable answers. Under the fixed submission protocol, 198 problems with failed initial submissions were answered correctly in 9.09p of cases with the question alone, 33.84p with its draft, 46.46p with candidates, and 59.60p with both. Drafts added 13.13 percentage points with candidates fixed, and candidates added 25.76 points with drafts fixed; both effects were significant after Holm correction and were subadditive on the accuracy scale. Retaining a trailing excerpt outperformed retaining a leading excerpt of similar average length by 10.10 points Holm-adjusted p 0.027. A second completion model showed the same directions of input effects on the fixed materials. In a cohort with parseable initial submissions, candidates added no correct answers when the previous draft was supplied, but added 27 points when it was absent. These results establish a conditional value of generated text: a failed submission can leave useful material, whose contribution depends on what else is supplied and what is retained.

Cat-DPO: Category-Adaptive Safety Alignment

Tiankai Yang, Yi Nian, Xinyuan Li, Ruiyao Xu, Henry Peng Zou, Kaize Ding, Xiyang Hu, Yan Liu 等 9 位作者

原文摘要

Aligning large language models with human preferences must balance two competing goals: responding helpfully to legitimate requests and reliably refusing harmful ones. Most preference-based safety alignment methods collapse safety into a single scalar that is applied uniformly to every preference pair. The result is a model that appears safe on average but remains relatively unsafe in a minority of harm categories. We cast safety alignment as a per-category constrained optimization problem and derive Cat-DPO, a direct-preference-optimization algorithm with a separate adaptive safety margin for each harm category. The margin tightens when the model still produces unsafe responses in a category and relaxes once the model catches up, so the training signal tracks each category's current difficulty rather than averaging across a single global rate. Across two LLM backbones and six preference-learning baselines, Cat-DPO improves aggregate helpfulness and harmlessness and compresses per-category safety variance and the best-to-worst gap, offering a drop-in per-category refinement of direct preference safety alignment.

RoadState: A Domain-Prior-Enhanced Vision-Language System for Industrial-Grade Lane-Level Map Updating

Deguo Xia, Zihan Li, Jiaqi Wang, Dong Xie, Xiyan Liu, Liuhui Zhang, Jizhou Huang, Mengmeng Yang 等 14 位作者

原文摘要

Lane-level map updating requires temporally consistent, physically valid, and auditable road-scene semantics despite occlusions, ambiguous lane markings, temporary obstacles, and viewpoint changes. We present RoadState, a production-deployed vision-language system that transforms sequential road-scene observations into structured lane-level semantics for Baidu Maps' map-updating pipeline. Its core model, RoadState-VLM, formulates road-scene understanding as autoregressive state estimation, predicting the current structured road state from the previous observation and symbolic state together with the current observation. We introduce Geometric Chain-of-Thought (Geo-CoT), which uses a directed acyclic graph of semantic dependencies as a domain prior to improve semantic consistency and reasoning fidelity across interdependent road-state dimensions. Extensive experiments on a real-world dataset show that RoadState-VLM achieves 94.33% mean accuracy across six road-state dimensions, outperforming the strongest fine-tuned VLM baseline. Ablation studies further demonstrate the complementary effectiveness of Geo-CoT and temporal transition context. A cascaded routing pipeline directs routine cases to lightweight models while reserving complex cases for RoadState-VLM. Since its deployment in March 2025, RoadState has supported lane-level map updating across more than 360 cities and reduced overall production costs by 30%. Together with human-in-the-loop auditing, the system maintains robust performance under stress-test conditions. These results demonstrate how domain-prior-enhanced reasoning, structured state interfaces, selective routing, and human quality control can bridge the gap between VLM-based road-scene understanding and large-scale lane-level map updating.

In Search of Lost Time: Temporal Competence in Large Language Models

Ryan Liu, David Lee, Icey Siyi Ai, Marwa Abdulhai, Rachit Dubey, Thomas L. Griffiths

原文摘要

Today's large language models (LLMs) increasingly interact with time: AI agents schedule tasks, coordinate with people and other AI systems, and even decide how long to think. Yet LLMs only ever encounter time secondhand---in descriptions rather than experience. Does this hinder their reasoning and decisions that involve time? Our paper traces this question from a model's knowledge to its actions through four successive evaluations. We find that models know the rules of time, which can be read, but struggle to predict durations, which must be lived; while they are highly accurate (92.0-97.5\%) on a collection of questions built from the theorems of various time-related literatures, they underestimate their own completion times by up to 99.5\% and fail to identify which tasks will take them longer to run. And while they are better at estimating durations of human tasks, their duration judgments change based on how an event is worded, magnifying similar human biases by up to 1.3$\times$. Moving from estimation to action, we find that some LLMs disregard time costs completely when answering user queries, ignoring a 1,200-fold increase in wait time entirely. Together, our experiments reveal new challenges posed to LLMs as they navigate a dimension they cannot directly perceive, and highlight how their blind spots can even be simple cognitive abilities that humans take for granted.

Game-Creation-Agents: Autonomous Game Production

Xiangxin Zhou, Jiaqi Tang, Ke Ma, Wenhao Yang, Jiarui Yao, Boye Niu, Haiyang Guo, Yifei Zhao 等 17 位作者

原文摘要

Game-Creation-Agents (GCA) turns a natural-language request into a runnable Phaser 4 browser game. The pipeline first builds a multimodal game design document that couples mechanics and scene contracts to grounded visual references. It then projects that document into a runtime scaffold, machine-readable contracts, and deterministic tests. Eight specialized agents next carry out production: scenes are implemented serially, assets are produced in parallel, and one reduced manifest joins the two branches into a single build. Build-linked real-UI checks and a code-blind critic then verify that build and decide whether the game may ship. Each blocker returns to the agent that owns the affected artifact for a bounded repair, and the game is released once all the gates pass. We evaluate finished games separately, through their rendered interfaces alone, over prompt-matched tasks run under a common protocol. GCA achieves stronger requirement satisfaction, core mechanics, content depth, and functional visuals than a comparable open pipeline. In a side-by-side human study, raters also score GCA's games higher on every dimension and prefer them overall.

WaSP: Wasserstein Data Synthesis Pipeline for Solver-Free Operator Learning

Ryan Liu, Chuwei Wang, Ricardo Baptista, Andrew Stuart, Anima Anandkumar

原文摘要

Neural operators offer fast surrogates for solving PDEs, but training them typically requires expensive input-solution pairs. Two solver-free alternatives include physics-informed learning and training on manufactured data. Physics-informed learning approximates solutions by minimizing PDE residuals. While the residual norm must be strong enough to control solution error, stronger norms increase mini-batch variance and hinder optimization. Manufactured data constructs input-solution pairs for learning by applying the PDE operator to artificial solutions. However, the resulting training distribution can be mutually singular with the target distribution, yielding poor accuracy on the target distribution. We introduce the Wasserstein Data Synthesis Pipeline (WaSP), which trains on manufactured input-solution pairs while gradually mitigating the distribution shift. WaSP synthesizes new pairs by applying the learned operator to a path of intermediate distributions converging to the target input distribution. Training proceeds in stages along this path. At each stage, the previous surrogate generates solutions, and the exact PDE operator derives corresponding inputs, yielding training pairs for the next surrogate. Theoretically, we prove a stepwise error-propagation bound for the distribution shift introduced during synthesis. Empirically, WaSP reduces solution error by $3.9\times$ to $9.5\times$ compared to existing solver-free methods on PDEs such as Allen-Cahn, Kuramoto-Sivashinsky, and Ginzburg-Landau, and better reproduces the two chaotic systems' statistical observables.

LeanStream: A Speculate-and-Refine Streaming Framework for Efficient on-Device LLM Inference

Renyuan Liu, Yuyang Leng, Kaiyan Liu, Yuzhou Zhong, Shaohan Hu, Chun-Fu, Chen, Peijun Zhao 等 10 位作者

原文摘要

On-device LLM inference is attractive for privacy and responsiveness, but remains challenging on mobile and embedded devices because model weights far exceed available DRAM. Prior systems exploit activation sparsity and offload weights to SSD or flash storage, but face a fundamental systems trade-off: accurate sparse execution decisions require the latest context, whereas efficient computation-I/O overlap requires early prediction. As a result, existing designs either serialize execution or incur redundant weight fetches, extra computation, and large cache overheads. We present LeanStream, a streaming speculate-and-refine framework for efficient on-device LLM inference. LeanStream progressively refines computation, loading, and cache-retention priorities using partial GPU results, enabling fine-grained overlap between GPU execution and storage I/O. We implement LeanStream on both mobile and embedded platforms. Compared with prior on-device LLM inference systems, LeanStream reduces memory usage by 4.8$\times$ to 7.5$\times$ at the best throughput achieved by prior work, while further improving token generation throughput by 1.6$\times$ to 2.1$\times$.

SPOD: Recovering Suppressed Temporal Evidence in Video-LLMs via Single-Pass Orthogonal Decomposition

Yangguang Lin, Quan Fang, Xiaoyan Liu, Zefan Xu

原文摘要

Video Large Language Models (Video-LLMs) have achieved strong performance on many video understanding tasks, yet remain vulnerable to temporal hallucination in time-sensitive reasoning scenarios such as scene transition understanding and event ordering. Existing solutions either require costly retraining or introduce inefficient multi-pass inference and external supervision at test time. In this work, we show that temporal evidence is already encoded in Video-LLM hidden representations but is not fully exploited during standard inference. Motivated by this observation, we propose Single-Pass Orthogonal Decomposition (SPOD), a training-free framework that recovers suppressed temporal evidence through analytical hidden-state manipulation in a single forward pass. SPOD consists of two components: Frame Distinctiveness Analysis (FDA), which identifies salient frames from middle-layer hidden-state geometry, and Temporal Delta Subspace (TDS), which constructs orthogonal temporal and prior subspaces from weighted inter-frame hidden-state differences. By decomposing final hidden states into temporal, prior, and residual components and rescaling them independently, SPOD enhances dynamic information, suppresses static appearance bias, and preserves complementary information. Experiments on VidHalluc, EventHallusion, and VideoMMMU show that SPOD consistently outperforms strong inference-time baselines across temporal reasoning tasks and model architectures while retaining near-vanilla inference efficiency. These results suggest that improving temporal reasoning in Video-LLMs may depend not only on additional supervision, but also on recovering temporal evidence already present in their internal representations. Our code is available at https://github.com/VioAgnes/SPOD.

Near-Optimal $\sqrt{K}$-Regret for Online Learning in Uninformed Markov Games

Junyan Liu, Haipeng Luo, Lillian J. Ratliff, Zihan Zhang

原文摘要

We study online learning in two-player uninformed Markov games, where the opponent may follow an arbitrary, unknown policy in each episode and the learner does not observe the opponent's actions. [TWYS21] showed that achieving sublinear external regret requires an exponential dependence on the episode length $H$. Motivated by this limitation, they studied the weaker notion of Nash-value regret and obtained an $\widetilde{O}(K^{2/3})$ regret bound, where $K$ is the number of episodes. More recently, [LLZR26] introduced a stronger notion called empirical Nash-value regret and achieved an $\widetilde{O}(\sqrt{K})$ bound when the opponent's non-stationarity is moderate, including the case where the opponent follows a fixed policy. However, whether the $\sqrt{K}$ rate is achievable in the worst case remained open. In this paper, we resolve this open question by developing an algorithm that achieves $\widetilde{O}(H^{3/2}S\sqrt{AK})$ empirical Nash-value regret against arbitrary opponent policies, where $S$ is the number of states and $A$ is the number of learner's actions. Specifically, our algorithm combines global and local planning by maintaining a collection of candidate predictions of future losses, each associated with a policy. Global planning learns which candidates to favor across episodes, while local planning combines their policies differently at each state to make decisions. A key ingredient is to coordinate these two components to control the discrepancy between local loss estimates and the total loss of the executed policy, using only the learner's observed trajectories.

Locating and Closing Information Gaps in Multi-Agent Systems

Yaxin Gong, Chongming Gao, Gangyi Zhang, Chenxiao Fan, Leyang Shen, Jiakai Wang, Dong Wang, Yang Liu 等 10 位作者

原文摘要

Multi-step Web tasks often require several LLM agents to gather and combine evidence. The communication graph of a fixed workflow restricts which agents can read each other's outputs: evidence retrieved by one agent may never reach the agent that needs it, leaving an information gap and an incomplete or incorrect answer. Adding a connection can deliver the missing evidence, but can also lead the receiver to adopt an incorrect upstream conclusion that displaces a correct answer; the final output alone does not separate the two. We propose Selective Probing and Link Insertion for Closing information gaps in multi-agent Execution (SPLICE), which locates information gaps per query and decides what to adopt after adding an edge. After the original workflow runs, SPLICE uses the query and node outputs to locate a possible gap, adds one directed edge from a source to a receiver to deliver the relevant evidence, and re-executes the receiver and affected downstream nodes, producing a candidate answer. The adoption decision reads both the final answers of the two runs and the process changes the edit caused inside the workflow: how far the receiver moved, where its new content came from, and whether the change reached the final answer. A selector trained on these process features chooses between adopting the candidate answer and retaining the original. On five benchmarks, SPLICE raises the task score on Web tool use by 8.0% and the mean score on four reasoning and planning benchmarks by 5.7% relative to the static skeleton, at 1.25 to 1.44$\times$ the skeleton's cost, and transfers zero-shot to four unseen backbones.

Learning Calibrated Confidence for Multi-Agent Collaboration

Chenxiao Fan, Chongming Gao, Gangyi Zhang, Yaxin Gong, Leyang Shen, Jiakai Wang, Dong Wang, Yang Liu 等 12 位作者

原文摘要

Complex information seeking on the Web often requires collecting evidence from multiple documents and reasoning across them, as in multi-hop question answering. Multi-agent systems address such tasks by dividing work among specialized agents, where upstream agents produce intermediate answers and supporting evidence that downstream agents build upon. However, upstream answers vary in correctness, and most systems provide no quantitative signal about it, leaving the downstream agent to judge whether to trust or verify what it receives based solely on the textual evidence. In this paper, we propose MASCAL. Each agent learns to produce a correctness probability for its answer by jointly optimizing task performance and confidence calibration in reinforcement learning; the upstream agent passes this probability at handoff, giving the downstream agent a quantitative basis for its decisions, and the final answer also carries a calibrated probability, quantifying the reliability of the system output. To guide the downstream agent in using this signal during training, we introduce confidence-aware weighting, which increases the learning weight at positions responsive to the upstream probability, so that the agent learns more from decisions where it actively uses the signal. Across three collaboration architectures spanning Web retrieval and reasoning tasks, MASCAL improves task accuracy and calibration quality for both agents, and generalizes to deeper collaboration chains and different model scales. Intervention analysis confirms that upstream confidence affects downstream decision behavior, and the learned final confidence supports selective answering and targeted rechecking.

A Trainable CPG Framework for Quadruped Locomotion

Xiyan Liu, Yide Liu, Guoyong Mao, Shaoxing Qu

原文摘要

We present CPG-ENN, a trainable quadruped locomotion framework that combines explicit neural coordination with learned motion realization. A symmetry-based eight-neuron central pattern generator (CPG) supplies gait rhythms, while a pretrained, leg-shared execution neural network (ENN) maps rhythmic signals and trajectory parameters to joint-angle references without online inverse kinematics. A single feedback policy modulates six physically interpretable trajectory variables. The controller tracks planar velocity and yaw-rate commands across walk, trot, pace, bound, and pronk without gait-specific learned controllers or transitionspecific rewards. Simulation yields 99.39% transition success across all 20 directed gait pairs and all source-target speed combinations from {0.5, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0} m/s. Ablations show high cross-gait transition feasibility without transition exposure; exposure mainly refines gait acquisition and velocity transients. Comparisons with AllGaits and Walk These Ways demonstrate accurate gait-speed regulation, and Unitree Go2 experiments validate five gaits and their transitions.

Efficient Paths and Dense Rewards: Probabilistic Flow Reasoning for Large Language Models

Yan Liu, Feng Zhang Peking University, Zhanyu Ma, Jun Xu Meituan, Jiuchong Gao, Jinghua Hao, Renqing He, Han Liu Dalian University of Technology 等 9 位作者

原文摘要

High-quality chain-of-thought has demonstrated strong potential for unlocking the reasoning capabilities of large language models. However, current paradigms typically treat the reasoning process as an indivisible sequence, lacking an intrinsic mechanism to quantify step-wise information gain. This granularity gap manifests in two limitations: inference inefficiency from redundant exploration without explicit guidance, and optimization difficulty due to sparse outcome supervision or costly external verifiers. In this work, we propose CoT-Flow, a framework that reconceptualizes discrete reasoning steps as a continuous probabilistic flow, quantifying the contribution of each step toward the ground-truth answer. Built on this formulation, CoT-Flow enables two complementary methodologies: flow-guided decoding, which employs a greedy flow-based decoding strategy to extract information-efficient reasoning paths, and flow-based reinforcement learning, which constructs a verifier-free dense reward function. Experiments on challenging benchmarks demonstrate that CoT-Flow achieves a superior balance between inference efficiency and reasoning performance.

AgentSlimming: Towards Efficient and Cost-Aware Multi-Agent Systems

Yulang Chen, Haoxuan Peng, Jinyan Liu, Zichen Wen Shanghai Jiao Tong University, Dongrui Liu Shanghai Artificial Intelligence Laboratory, Linfeng Zhang Shanghai Jiaotong University

原文摘要

Large Language Model-based Multi-Agent Systems (MAS) have demonstrated remarkable capabilities in complex tasks. However, manually designing optimal communication topologies is labor-intensive, while automated expansion methods often result in bloated structures with redundant agents, leading to excessive token consumption. To address this problem, we introduce AgentSlimming, a plug-and-play compression framework for graph-structured multi-agent workflows. Motivated by the AgentPruner and AgentQuant in neural networks, AgentSlimming compresses workflows by firstly estimate the importance score of each agent with a hybrid mechanism, and then removing redundant agents or replacing them with low-cost ones, where each operation is then validated with a baseline-anchored acceptance rule to prevent performance collapse. Experiments show that AgentSlimming reduces average token cost by up to 78.9% with negligible performance degradation, and even sometimes improves accuracy, achieving a strong Pareto-optimal trade-off between cost and quality.

Collaborative Chain-of-Agents for Parametric-Retrieved Knowledge Synergy

Yi Jiang, Sendong Zhao, Jianbo Li, Haochun Wang Harbin Institute of Technology, Lizhe Zhang, Yan Liu, Bing Qin Harbin Institute of Technology

原文摘要

Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) enhances Large Language Models (LLMs), especially for knowledge-intensive tasks. Despite its advantages, current RAG methods often struggle to fully exploit knowledge during generation. In particular, the synergy between the model’s internal parametric knowledge and external retrieved knowledge remains limited. Retrieved contents may sometimes mislead generation, while certain generated content can guide the model toward more accurate outputs. In this work, we propose Collaborative Chain-of-Agents, a framework designed to enhance explicitly synergy over both parametric and retrieved knowledge. Specifically, we first introduce CoCoA-zero, a multi-agent RAG framework that first performs conditional knowledge induction and then reasons answers. Building on this, we develop CoCoA, a long-chain training strategy that synthesizes extended multi-agent reasoning trajectories from CoCoA-zero to fine-tune the LLM. This strategy enhances the model’s capability to explicitly integrate and jointly leverage parametric and retrieved knowledge. Experimental results demonstrate the superiority of CoCoA in open-domain QA and multi-hop QA.

MirrorQA: Benchmarking Multimodal LLMs on Mirror-Orientation Reasoning

Jingping Liu SUN YAT-SEN UNIVERSITY, Xingchen Peng, Yan Zhou, Ziyan Liu, Jie Zhai, Ronghao Chen QuantaAlpha, Huacan Wang QuantaAlpha, Xiaofeng Jia Bowling Green State University

原文摘要

Multimodal large language models (MLLMs) have achieved remarkable progress in recent years, yet their ability to perform left–right reasoning in mirror contexts—a fundamental element of spatial cognition—remains underexplored. To address this gap, we introduce MirrorQA, a manually constructed benchmark with 5,549 samples, designed to evaluate MLLMs’ capability to distinguish left from right from a subject-centered perspective. MirrorQA is built through a three-stage pipeline (annotation, verification, and final review) to ensure high-quality labeling. Comprehensive evaluations on both open- and closed-source MLLMs show that even the best-performing models achieve only 65.40% accuracy, far below the 99.28% accuracy of humans. These results highlight substantial challenges in current MLLMs when reasoning about left and right, and point to promising directions for future research. MirrorQA and its code are publicly available at anonymous link https://github.com/stargazer-zeno/MirrorQA.

原文摘要

Visual scale recognition is a fundamental aspect for humans to perceive physical quantities in the real world, and it is crucial for enabling human-like intelligence in multimodal large language models (MLLMs). However, existing benchmarks typically focus on a single type of quantity (e.g., time) or a specific format (e.g., dials), lacking a comprehensive evaluation of scale recognition capabilities. To address these problems, we propose ScaleBench, a visual scale recognition benchmark built using images from COCO, Open Images, and Flickr, designed to comprehensively evaluate the scale recognition capabilities of MLLMs. To ensure high data quality, we develop detailed annotation guidelines and procedures, resulting in a total of 6,574 annotated samples. Based on this benchmark, we evaluate multiple closed-source and open-source MLLMs. Experimental results reveal that the best-performing model achieves only 42.60% accuracy, far lower than the 97.40% of humans. Furthermore, we conduct in-depth experimental analyses and provide future research directions. Our benchmark and implementation codes are available at https://github.com/Sonder-hang/ScaleBench.

原文摘要

Instruction tuning plays a crucial role in enhancing large language models (LLMs) to better understand complex user instructions. While various data selection and revision methods have been explored to optimize instruction tuning datasets, they face two main challenges: unreasonable pruning of potentially valuable low-quality data and the persistence of noise or semantic drift during revision. To address these issues, we propose a novel automated iterative framework for instruction data optimization. Our framework introduces Instruction Quality Differentiation to identify valuable high-quality and low-quality data across multiple dimensions. For low-quality data, we propose a Feedback-driven Iterative Refinement mechanism with an “evaluate-refine-review” process and design an Output Alignment module to improve data quality. Experiments on seven public benchmark datasets show that our framework outperforms state-of-the-art methods, achieving 2.09% and 2.60% improvements on the Alpaca and Dolly datasets, respectively, with high data efficiency. Our code and data are available at the anonymous link https://github.com/surihuhang/From-Selection-to-Refinement–-Iterative-Optimization-for-Instruction-Data.

原文摘要

Protecting public figures from online abuse requires models that go beyond post-level classification to determine whether abuse is directed at a designated target, characterize the abuse intent, and extract textual evidence. We introduce a Target-Aware Multilingual Abuse (TAMA), benchmark of 9,386 X (Twitter) posts aimed at public figures, with aligned supervision for (i) tri-class target detection, (ii) 12-way fine-grained abuse type classification, and (iii) phrase-level abusive spans localization. To exploit the hierarchical coupling of these tasks, we propose Cascaded-MTL, a dependency-aware multi-task framework that conditions downstream predictions on upstream beliefs via three lightweight modules: Cross-Task Feature Fusion (CTF), Task-Adaptive Gating (TAG), and Label-Guided Span Detection (LGSD). Experiments across three multilingual encoders show that Cascaded-MTL consistently yields higher average F1 than single-task and standard multi-task training and delivers robust gains on type classification and span localization. The code and the dataset are released here: https://github.com/zgjiangtoby/CASCADED-MTL

Reflection in the Dark: Exposing and Escaping the Black Box in Reflective Prompt Optimization

Shiyan Liu, Qifeng Xia, Qiyun Xia, Yisheng Liu, Xinyu Yu, Rui Qu

原文摘要

Automatic prompt optimization (APO) has emerged as a powerful paradigm for improving LLM performance without manual prompt engineering. Reflective APO methods such as GEPA iteratively refine prompts by diagnosing failure cases, but the optimization process remains black-box and label-free, leading to uninterpretable trajectories and systematic failure. We identify and empirically demonstrate four limitations: on GSM8K with a defective seed, GEPA degrades accuracy from 23.81% to 13.50%. We propose VISTA, a multi-agent APO framework that decouples hypothesis generation from prompt rewriting, enabling semantically labeled hypotheses, parallel minibatch verification, and interpretable optimization trace. A two-layer explore-exploit mechanism combining random restart and epsilon-greedy sampling further escapes local optima. VISTA recovers accuracy to 87.57% on the same defective seed and consistently outperforms baselines across all conditions on GSM8K and AIME2025.
