As multimodal large language models (MLLMs) reason for longer, attention to the initial visual input diminishes, weakening visual grounding. Visual memory reintroduces visual evidence during reasoning. We conduct a controlled analysis of visual memory along three axes: curation, organization, and access. We find that l …
Recent advances in autoregressive video generation have improved temporal consistency over extended durations, yet interactive storytelling requires more than continuous scene extension: a new shot may combine characters and backgrounds from different historical shots. Whole prompt retrieval can overlook the distinct r …
Interpretability methods such as probes, activation patches and learned editors are designed to reveal or modify a model's current computation. World models pose a harder requirement: because their predictions become inputs to later predictions, a useful internal correction must survive after editing stops. We therefor …
Reinforcement learning for long-horizon agents typically relies on sparse outcome-based rewards. This leads to a severe cold-start problem, as early-stage policies often fail to solve sampled tasks, leaving little useful reward signal for learning. To mitigate this problem, we use on-policy distillation (OPD) to provid …
