Demonstration-conditioned policies provide a natural interface for specifying robot behavior, yet long-horizon manipulation remains difficult when visually similar states recur across different stages or when demonstrations and executions proceed at different speeds. We identify the resulting failure mode as stage conf …

Mental health disorders affect a substantial proportion of the global population, yet a persistent shortage of trained practitioners leaves the majority without adequate care. Large language model (LLM)-based counselors present a promising direction for delivering scalable conversational psychological support. Offline …

Multimodal GUI agents have achieved impressive results on general software benchmarks, yet their ability to operate professional scientific software remains largely unexplored. In materials science, sparse domain-specific web data, specialized interfaces, and tacit workflow conventions create blind spots that general-p …

Vision-and-language navigation increasingly relies on general-purpose semantic planners, yet translating correct high-level intent into reliable physical execution remains difficult in spatially constrained transitions. Reaching a staircase, doorway, or narrow passage does not ensure traversal; the agent must identify …

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 …
