Scaling laws describe power-law improvements in model performance with dataset size and parameter count, yet their underlying mechanisms are not fully understood. To explain the parameter count scaling, existing theory posits power-law scaling with model depth. In linear-attention models, this scaling is tied to a powe …

Mobile manipulation requires precise navigation to a manipulation-ready pose followed by reliable object interaction. These two stages differ in action spaces and visual requirements, which complicates unified policy learning. In addition, collecting diverse real-world navigation data with explicit manipulation-ready p …

Online training enables computer-use agents (CUAs) to improve through interaction with executable environments. However, existing methods primarily rely on sparse outcome rewards, which provide no supervision for intermediate actions. On-policy self-distillation (OPSD) offers token-level learning signals through privil …

Computer use agents (CUAs) have demonstrated strong capabilities in completing digital tasks. However, existing CUAs either rely solely on graphical user interface (GUI) interactions, which are often inefficient and error prone, or augment GUI interactions with application specific APIs or tools, which require substant …

Large language models are thought to represent features by vectors in a hidden space of dimension given by the model's width. Superposition, in which more features are represented than the width by letting representation vectors overlap, is a leading account of how representation vectors are organized. However, how mod …

Neural scaling, in which loss falls as a power law with training, is central to large language models, and one recent proposal is that a $1/3$ exponent emerges from learning peaked distributions. That account describes SGD, but models in practice are trained with adaptive optimizers. Here we separate two exponents the …

Hierarchical vision-language-action (VLA) systems consist of a high-level vision-language planner and a low-level action expert that generates continuous actions. This hierarchical design has practical value only if the planner can generate plans fast enough to meet real-time control requirements, and the resulting pla …

Generative models have advanced image-conditioned 3D content creation, yet generating controllable and executable 3D scenes from a single image remains challenging. Existing 3D generative approaches can synthesize visually plausible objects and scenes, but their spatial layout estimation is coupled with specific asset …

Multi-turn agents trained with reinforcement learning (RL) receive a single scalar reward per trajectory, which motivates self on-policy distillation (OPD) to supply dense token-level supervision from a self-teacher with privileged task skills, letting a skill-free student internalize them. This recipe, however, is und …
