Pointing-gesture visual grounding requires connecting hand geometry with the visual identity and extent of a referred object. A central challenge for continuous latent reasoning is how to organize these complementary cues into useful intermediate supervision. We propose Spatial Latent Reasoning (SLR), a framework that …
Portrait aesthetic assessment assigns comparable scores according to how effectively human-centered images fulfill their photographic intent. These scores support data filtering, candidate selection, and preference modeling in image-generation pipelines. Existing methods typically predict a single aesthetic score or us …
Artificial intelligence has advanced individual radiotherapy tasks, yet these capabilities remain separated across clinical stages, software environments and data modalities. This fragmentation contrasts with the longitudinal radiotherapy workflow from treatment decision-making through follow-up. Here we present RadOnc …
Flow matching is central to 3D generation, yet in practice its reinforcement learning (RL) methods are largely adapted from 2D visual generation. Representative DPO-, GRPO-, and NFT-style objectives, when applied to negative trajectories, mainly steer predicted velocities away from the corresponding directions without …
Autoregressive modelling has achieved remarkable success in language and sequence tasks by learning to predict future states from previous observation. Mineral-exploration drillholes provide a natural but largely unexplored setting for this paradigm: as drilling proceeds, lithology is revealed sequentially from shallow …
GUI agents built on large language and vision-language models still struggle on unseen applications and complex multi-step tasks, as completing real GUI tasks depends on app-specific, temporally volatile operational knowledge that is scarce in pretraining corpora. Retrieval-augmented execution offers a natural remedy b …
We present IronLLM-0.6B, a 654M-parameter language model designed for efficient on-device inference. IronLLM-0.6B combines a hybrid attention architecture with X-MTP, a lightweight shared-KV multi-token prediction design that eliminates per-depth KV-cache replay and employs a lightweight verification head for rollback- …
Long-term memory enables language models to use past interactions in future conversations. However, evidence needed to answer a question may be scattered across distant turns, while the question itself omits clues needed to locate it. Retrieved facts can reveal these clues, motivating retrieval decisions conditioned on …
Diffusion models have recently shown strong potential for probabilistic multivariate time-series forecasting by modeling complex conditional distributions. Recent decoupled diffusion frameworks further separate forecasting into deterministic prediction and stochastic residual generation, making it natural to derive dep …
The transition from Large Language Models (LLMs) to agents shifts safety stakes from toxic text to irreversible environmental harm. While current defenses remain largely retrospective, proactive runtime intervention is bottlenecked by the lack of large-scale, causally-consistent data. We propose PROACT-Agent, a framewo …
Recent representation alignment (REPA) methods accelerate diffusion transformer training by aligning projections of the transformer's hidden states with representations from pretrained visual encoders. In this work, we explore a reverse and complementary direction to REPA: rather than projecting diffusion representatio …
A generalist vision encoder must capture semantic, spatial, language-aligned, and action-relevant cues within a unified representation, yet softmax attention underlying today's most capable visual backbones becomes prohibitively expensive at high resolution. A natural attempt to address both challenges is to distill mu …
Existing latent world models are typically optimized for future predictability, yet the resulting representations are not necessarily useful for planning in autonomous driving. Predictions are commonly used for pretraining or auxiliary supervision rather than as direct conditioning signals for trajectory generation. We …
Self-attention-based vision backbones perform well on dense prediction, but the quadratic computational cost of global softmax attention limits their efficiency as image resolution increases. We introduce Gated Token Recurrence (GTR), a softmax-free recurrent vision backbone that combines gated linear attention, altern …
The widespread adoption of long-horizon agents has made model workloads increasingly input-heavy. Although prior work has substantially reduced the cost of long-context computation, prefill remains computationally expensive, and large KV caches continue to strain HBM and SSD capacity and data-transfer bandwidth. Togeth …
