RelayFormer: A Unified Local-Global Attention Framework for Scalable Image and Video Manipulation Localization

Visual manipulation localization (VML) aims to identify tampered regions in images and videos, a task that has become increasingly challenging with the rise of advanced editing tools. Existing methods face two central issues. The first is resolution diversity. Resizing or padding can distort subtle forensic cues and introduce unnecessary computational cost. The second is the difficulty of extending spatial models for images to spatio-temporal inputs in videos, which often results in maintaining separate architectures for the two data types. To address these challenges, we propose RelayFormer, a unified framework that adapts to varying resolutions and naturally handles both static and temporal visual data. RelayFormer partitions inputs into fixed-size sub-images and introduces Global Local Relay (GLR) tokens that propagate structured context through a relay-based attention mechanism. This design enables efficient exchange of global cues, such as semantic or temporal consistency, while preserving fine-grained manipulation artifacts. Unlike prior approaches that depend on uniform resizing or sparse attention, RelayFormer scales to variable resolutions and video sequences with minimal overhead. Experiments across diverse benchmarks demonstrate superior performance and strong efficiency, combining resolution adaptivity without interpolation or excessive padding, unified processing for images and videos, and a favorable balance between accuracy and computational cost.

WorldCoder-Bench: Benchmarking Physically Grounded 3D World Synthesis

Large language models (LLMs) are increasingly asked not only to write static interfaces, but to construct executable interactive worlds from natural language. Browser-native 3D, commonly built with Three.js, is a natural next frontier: generated programs must integrate assets, obey spatial and physical constraints, and keep user-facing controls synchronized with hidden runtime state. Existing web-generation benchmarks and evaluators, however, largely observe only pixels or DOM nodes, while the mechanics of a Three.js world unfold inside an opaque . We introduce WorldCoder-Bench, a benchmark for autonomous, physically grounded 3D world synthesis. WorldCoder-Bench contains 2,026 expert-curated tasks across Simulation, Rendering, and Application scenarios, with optional .glb assets and hidden behavioral contracts. We further propose StateProbe, an execution-based protocol that probes generated programs in a sandboxed browser and verifies hidden, mutation-hardened contracts over runtime states and transitions. Beyond verification coverage, we report Return on Automation and Time Efficiency Multiplier to measure correctness-adjusted cost and time savings. Across nine frontier models, the best system reaches only 27.8% verification coverage on WorldCoder-Core and 19.9% on WorldCoder-Robust, with failures dominated by state-schema drift and broken interaction chains rather than missing scene elements. Utility metrics further show that cheap or fast models can still provide substantial value on easier domains. WorldCoder-Bench is available at https://anonymous.4open.science/r/WorldCoder-Bench/.

AlloSpatial: Agentic Harness Framework for Spatial Reasoning in Foundation Models

Multimodal Foundation Models (MFMs) have made substantial progress, yet remain fragile in spatial reasoning over the physical world. A key bottleneck lies in their inability to transform local egocentric observations into a global allocentric spatial representation. To address this, we propose AlloSpatial, an agentic framework for allocentric spatial cognition in foundation models. AlloSpatial introduces World2Mind, a plug-and-play cognitive mapping sandbox that converts egocentric observations into structured allocentric priors, including Allocentric-Spatial Trees and route maps that support querying object topology, geometric relations, passability, and trajectories. To utilize these priors reliably under noisy reconstruction and ambiguous visual evidence, AlloSpatial introduces a Spatial Reasoning Harness for tool-use judgment, modality-decoupled cue collection, and geometry-semantic arbitration. We further internalize this process in Qwen3-VL through cold-start reinforcement learning with a harness-gated trajectory-level reward. Experiments on VSI-Bench and MindCube show that AlloSpatial improves proprietary models by 5%-18% in a training-free setting, while ASTs alone support strong spatial reasoning even when visual inputs are removed. The trained AlloSpatial agents further outperform larger general-purpose models and competitive spatial baselines, suggesting that structured allocentric representations, active tool use, and verifiable reasoning offer a promising route toward spatially capable foundation models.

YouZhi: Towards High-Concurrency Financial LLMs via Adaptive GQA-to-MLA Transition

Large language models (LLMs) drive significant financial innovations, yet their high-concurrency deployment is severely bottlenecked by KV cache memory overhead, which inflates infrastructure costs and throttles scalability. To address this, we propose YouZhi-LLM, a highly efficient financial LLM empowered by a comprehensive structural transition and training pipeline natively built on the Huawei Ascend ecosystem. At its algorithmic core, YouZhi-LLM features a layer-adaptive GQA-to-MLA transition framework that dynamically assigns per-layer FreqFold sizes, maximizing KV-cache compression while minimizing perplexity degradation. To recover representation capacity and inject domain expertise, the Ascend-based training pipeline seamlessly integrates generalized knowledge distillation with financial-specific supervised fine-tuning. Evaluations demonstrate the superiority of this systematic approach, with the adaptive transition reducing perplexity degradation by up to 35% over uniform baselines. Crucially, when evaluated on Ascend NPUs via vLLM-Ascend, the massive KV-cache reduction translates directly into deployment efficiency. Compared to their respective base models, YouZhi-7B yields a 12.3% improvement in average financial benchmark score alongside a 2.69$\times$ increase in maximum concurrency; similarly, YouZhi-14B achieves a 7.0% accuracy gain and a 2.43$\times$ concurrency boost, establishing a new paradigm for cost-effective, high-throughput financial inference.

A novel class of high-order uniformly accurate exponential integrators with local linear extension for the charged-particle dynamics under strong magnetic field

In this paper, we develop a novel class of high-order uniformly accurate exponential integrators for charged-particle dynamics under a strong magnetic field. The small parameter $0<\varepsilon\ll 1$ induces rapid temporal oscillations, rendering traditional numerical methods prohibitively expensive due to severe step-size restrictions. To address this issue, a linearization technology that introduces auxiliary polynomial variables is employed to recast the original charged-particle dynamics as a higher-dimensional system. Classical exponential integrators are subsequently applied to this augmented formulation, which inherently carries richer structural information, thereby yielding a family of uniformly accurate exponential integrators that can reach arbitrarily high order without requiring any order conditions. For the maximal ordering scaling strong magnetic field, we rigorously demonstrate via algebraic techniques that the proposed schemes with auxiliary polynomial variables of degree $k(k\geq 2)$ achieve an $\mathcal{O}(\varepsilon h^{k+1})$ improved error estimate for the position and a uniform $\mathcal{O}(h^{k+1})$ error estimate for the velocity. Numerical experiments validate the advantages of the methods. The theoretical and numerical in vestigation is finally extended to relativistic charged-particle dynamics in a four-dimensional framework with maximal ordering scaling strong magnetic field.

Flow-HOA: Generative Joint Optimization for Ambisonics Encoding via Flow Matching

Higher-Order Ambisonics (HOA) encoding from sparse, irregular microphone arrays remains a critical challenge for consumer spatial audio capture in immersive communication and XR. We propose Flow-HOA, a generative framework that jointly optimizes a multi-dimensional objective encompassing time-domain, spectral, and spatial fidelity while producing a deployable, time-invariant bank of Finite Impulse Response (FIR) encoding filters. Using conditional flow matching, the model learns to map a simple prior distribution to the target distribution of FIR filter coefficients. Training is guided by a composite loss that balances time-domain waveform fidelity, multi-resolution spectral consistency, sub-band energy preservation, and spatial directivity constraints. Objective evaluations on synthetically simulated data demonstrate improved performance over strong model-based baselines in both signal fidelity and spatial accuracy metrics. Subjective listening tests on real microphone array recordings further confirm that Flow-HOA yields higher overall sound quality with reduced artifacts, demonstrating generalization from synthetic training data to real-world capture conditions.

SHB-AE: Spherical harmonic beamforming based Ambisonics encoding and upscaling method for smartphone microphone array

With the rapid development of virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR), spatial audio recording and reproduction have gained increasing research interest. Higher Order Ambisonics (HOA) stands out for its adaptability to various playback devices and its ability to integrate head orientation. However, current HOA recordings often rely on bulky spherical microphone arrays (SMA), and portable devices like smartphones are limited by array configuration and number of microphones. We propose SHB-AE, a spherical harmonic beamforming based method for Ambisonics encoding using a smartphone microphone array (SPMA). By designing beamformers for each order of spherical harmonic functions based on the array manifold, the method enables Ambisonics encoding and up-scaling. Validation on a real SPMA and its simulated free-field counterpart in noisy and reverberant conditions showed that the method successfully encodes and up-scales Ambisonics up to the fourth order with just four irregularly arranged microphones.

WebRISE: Requirement-Induced State Evaluation for MLLM-Generated Web Artifacts

Existing benchmarks for MLLM-generated web artifacts assess interaction through local evidence and miss the requirement-induced states and transitions that determine whether a page works. We introduce WebRISE, which compiles task requirements into Interaction Contract Graphs (ICGs) of observable states, user-intent transitions, and DOM/visual assertions for implementation-agnostic browser execution. WebRISE spans 442 tasks across five input modalities (Text, Markdown, Sketch, Image, Video), with 5,495 transitions and 5,271 requirement checks that separate user-stated functions from implicit product-level constraints. Across 14 MLLMs, even the strongest model reaches only 65.6% transition validity and 66.3% requirement coverage, and visual quality is no proxy for behavior (Qwen3.6-35B-A3B on Markdown: V=80.8 yet T=15.5). Video gives the strongest interaction signal (+10.6 pp implicit coverage over Text), while implicit constraints persist; defect injection shows ICG-based scoring detects state errors at 2-16x the rate of checkpoint-style evaluation.

On the Salience of Low-Probability Tokens for AI-Generated Text Detection: A Multiscale Uncertainty Perspective

AI-generated text increasingly blends with human writing, raising practical risks such as misinformation, academic misuse, and corpora contamination. While statistical detectors are appealing for efficiency and generalization, they suffer from two key limitations. (i) Boilerplate dominance, boilerplate tokens shared across human and LLM writing can overwhelm discriminative signals. (ii) Brittle point estimates, relying on a single probability score yields unstable decisions under adversarial manipulations. To address these issues, we propose Uncertainty, a multiscale uncertainty estimator that focuses on informative low-probability tokens, which more clearly expose distributional discrepancies. Locally, it alleviates boilerplate dominance by averaging the log-probabilities of low-probability tokens; globally, it reduces brittleness by capturing the distributional shape of this low-probability region via Rényi entropy. We further extend the detector to Uncertainty++ via conditional independent sampling, yielding a more stable uncertainty estimation. Experiments across seven datasets and sixteen LLMs demonstrate high effectiveness, generalization, and robustness. Our code is available at https://github.com/guoyikai2000/Uncertainty-AIGT.

Neural Radiated-Noise Fields for Unmanned Underwater Vehicle Noise Spectrum Prediction in Three-Dimensional Scenes

Radiated noise in unmanned underwater vehicles (UUVs) is an important indicator for characterizing acoustic signatures and evaluating platform performance. To address the strong dependence of traditional physics-based modeling and numerical simulation methods on target structural information and environmental boundary conditions, and their inability to achieve continuous spatial spectrum-response modeling in three-dimensional scenes, this paper proposes a neural radiated-noise field (NRNF). An NRNF represents the UUV radiated-noise spectrum as a continuous function of the three-dimensional UUV position, the three-dimensional hydrophone position, the UUV yaw angle, and the frequency, enabling query-based prediction at arbitrary spatial locations. The proposed method employs sinusoidal encoding for position and frequency, and introduces a learnable three-dimensional scene feature grid to explicitly represent environmental structure and propagation effects. A spectrum-prediction dataset is constructed from lake trials, and the proposed model is evaluated under three settings: horizontal extrapolation, depth extrapolation, and cross-run generalization. Results show that the NRNF achieves an average prediction error of 3.5 dB in the 50 to 5000 Hz band. Horizontal extrapolation is easiest, depth extrapolation is the most challenging, and cross-run generalization is of intermediate difficulty. Further ablation results demonstrate that the scene feature grid significantly improves the prediction stability and spatial generalization of the model.

OSCS-SupCon: Orthogonal Sigmoid-based Common and Style Supervised Contrastive Learning for Robust Feature Disentanglement

Supervised Contrastive Learning (SupCon) has achieved strong performance by explicitly modeling pairwise relationships among samples. However, existing SupCon-based methods suffer from two key limitations: negative-sample dilution induced by the standard InfoNCE loss, and feature-space entanglement caused by the lack of explicit constraints separating category-relevant (common) and category-irrelevant (style) features. These limitations reduce feature discriminability and generalization ability. To address these issues, we propose OSCS-SupCon (Orthogonal Sigmoid-based Common and Style Supervised Contrastive Learning), a unified framework that combines a sigmoid-based pairwise contrastive objective with explicit orthogonality constraints. Specifically, we introduce a sigmoid-based contrastive loss with two learnable parameters, temperature and bias, which adaptively modulate pairwise decision boundaries and alleviate negative-sample dilution. Furthermore, we enforce orthogonality between common and style feature subspaces via a linear projection with ReLU nonlinearity, thereby reducing feature overlap and improving disentanglement of style-irrelevant representations. Extensive experiments on six benchmark datasets demonstrate that OSCS-SupCon consistently outperforms state-of-the-art supervised contrastive learning methods across multiple backbone architectures. In particular, on the fine-grained CUB200-2011 dataset with a ResNet-18 backbone, the proposed method achieves a 3.4% improvement in classification accuracy over CS-SupCon, highlighting its robustness and generalization capability. Ablation studies further confirm the effectiveness of each component.

OpenClawBench: Benchmarking Process-side Anomalies in Real-world Agent Execution Trajectories

Task success can hide process anomalies in real-world agent executions. An agent may pass the final task oracle while still accumulating unresolved ambiguity, unsafe external writes, ignored errors, weakly grounded commitments, or capability-boundary overcommitment. We study this mismatch as the Outcome-Process Gap and introduce OpenClawBench, a large-scale dataset for measuring and supervising process-side anomalies in real agent execution processes. OpenClawBench is built from BFCL-driven OpenClaw sessions produced by 6 source models and contains 31,264 annotated trajectories. It aligns task-oracle outcomes with structured process evidence. FullTax converts the aligned trajectories into structured anomaly supervision: binary labels, supporting evidence, onset/span localization, severity, recoverability, and a 5-class anomaly taxonomy. Using OpenClawBench, we make the Outcome-Process Gap measurable. Among 31,135 oracle-passing executions, 2,904 are still labeled process-anomalous under FullTax. These results show that success-only evaluation misses a concrete class of process-side failures in real agent executions. A LoRA-fine-tuned Gemma 3 12B detector trained on the high-confidence FullTax supervised pool reaches binary F1=0.729 on the cleaner-labels held-out test split. Together, OpenClawBench turns real agent execution logs into auditable and reusable supervision for studying, diagnosing, and operationally monitoring runtime agent reliability.

FG-CLIP 2: A Bilingual Fine-grained Vision-Language Alignment Model

Fine-grained vision-language understanding requires precise alignment between visual content and linguistic descriptions, a capability that remains limited in current models, particularly in non-English settings. While models like CLIP perform well on global alignment, they often struggle to capture fine-grained details in object attributes, spatial relations, and linguistic expressions, with limited support for bilingual comprehension. To address these challenges, we introduce FG-CLIP 2, a bilingual vision-language model designed to advance fine-grained alignment for both English and Chinese. Our approach leverages rich fine-grained supervision, including region-text matching and long-caption modeling, alongside multiple discriminative objectives. We further introduce the Textual Intra-modal Contrastive (TIC) loss to better distinguish semantically similar captions. Trained on a carefully curated mixture of large-scale English and Chinese data, including a newly released 12M Chinese region-text dataset, FG-CLIP 2 achieves powerful bilingual performance. To enable rigorous evaluation, we present a new benchmark for Chinese multimodal understanding, featuring long-caption retrieval and bounding box classification. Extensive experiments on 29 datasets across 8 tasks show that FG-CLIP 2 outperforms existing methods, achieving state-of-the-art results in both languages. We release the model, code, and benchmark to facilitate future research on bilingual fine-grained vision-language alignment.

From Item-Only to Query-Item: Query-Conditioned Generative Search with QGS in Quark

Generative sequence models have shown strong results in recommendation. Applying them to search ranking is more challenging. Search behavior is inherently query-driven. Each query switch introduces a sharp topic shift in the user's interaction history. Existing generative methods flatten queries and items into a single token sequence. They do not distinguish query boundaries. This causes the model to mix different query intents into one prediction target, resulting in noisy supervision. We present Query-Conditioned Generative Search (QGS). QGS encodes each interaction as a (query, item) pair token. It trains with a query-conditioned next-item objective. The prediction target changes from a noisy marginal P(item_{t+1}|context_{<=t}) to a clean conditional P(item_{t+1}|context_{<=t}, query_{t+1}). This directly removes the semantic discontinuity caused by query switches. Encoding long interaction histories with standard attention has quadratic cost. This is impractical under strict online latency budgets. We introduce a Linear HSTU encoder. It replaces full attention with causal linear recurrence. Per-layer complexity drops from O(L^2) to O(L) with no loss in ranking quality. Traditional search ranking depends on hand-crafted features like text-matching scores, statistical signals, and behavioral features. We propose HFG-Attention to preserve them in the generative framework. It organizes heterogeneous features into semantic groups and fuses them through a dedicated attention block. This bridges sparse engineered signals with dense sequential representations. QGS is deployed in the ranking module of Quark Search, a major commercial search engine in China. Online A/B tests show statistically significant gains: +0.62% CTR, +0.38% Click-Search Ratio, and +3.55% PV Duration over the production deep learning baseline.

BadSKP: Backdoor Attacks on Knowledge Graph-Enhanced LLMs with Soft Prompts

Recent knowledge graph (KG)-enhanced large language models (LLMs) move beyond purely textual knowledge augmentation by encoding retrieved subgraphs into continuous soft prompts via graph neural networks, introducing a graph-conditioned channel that operates alongside the standard text interface. However, existing backdoor attacks are largely designed for the textual channel, and their effectiveness against this dual-channel architecture remains unclear. We show that this architecture creates a robustness gap: text-channel backdoor attacks that readily compromise textual KG prompting systems become largely ineffective against soft-prompt-based counterparts. We interpret this gap through semantic anchoring, whereby graph-derived soft prompts bias the generation-driving hidden state toward query-consistent semantics and suppress surface-level malicious instructions. Because this anchoring effect is itself induced by the graph channel, an attacker who manipulates graph-level representations can in turn redirect it toward adversarial semantics. To demonstrate this risk, we propose BadSKP, a backdoor attack that targets the graph-to-prompt interface through a multi-stage optimization strategy: it constructs adversarial target embeddings, optimizes poisoned node embeddings to steer the induced soft prompt, and approximates the optimized representations with fluent adversarial node attributes. Experiments on two soft-prompt KG-enhanced LLMs across four datasets show that BadSKP achieves high attack success under both frozen and trojaned settings, while text-only attacks remain unreliable even under perplexity-based defenses.

WorldReasonBench: Human-Aligned Stress Testing of Video Generators as Future World-State Predictors

Commercial video generation systems such as Seedance2.0 and Veo3.1 have rapidly improved, strengthening the view that video generators may be evolving into "world simulators." Yet the community still lacks a benchmark that directly tests whether a model can reason about how an observed world should evolve over time. We introduce WorldReasonBench, which reframes video generation evaluation as world-state prediction: given an initial state and an action, can a model generate a future video whose state evolution remains physically, socially, logically, and informationally consistent? WorldReasonBench contains 436 curated test cases with structured ground-truth QA annotations spanning four reasoning dimensions and 22 subcategories. We evaluate generated videos with a human-aligned two-part methodology: Process-aware Reasoning Verification uses structured QA and reasoning-phase diagnostics to detect temporal and causal failures, while Multi-dimensional Quality Assessment scores reasoning quality, temporal consistency, and visual aesthetics for ranking and reward modeling. We further introduce WorldRewardBench, a preference benchmark with approximately 6K expert-annotated pairs over 1.4K videos, supporting pair-wise and point-wise reward-model evaluation. Across modern video generators, our results expose a persistent gap between visual plausibility and world reasoning: videos can look convincing while failing dynamics, causality, or information preservation. We will release our benchmarks and evaluation toolkit to support community research on genuinely world-aware video generation at https://github.com/UniX-AI-Lab/WorldReasonBench/.

Is Your Prompt Poisoning Code? Defect Induction Rates and Security Mitigation Strategies

Large language models (LLMs) have become indispensable for automated code generation, yet the quality and security of their outputs remain a critical concern. Existing studies predominantly concentrate on adversarial attacks or inherent flaws within the models. However, a more prevalent yet underexplored issue concerns how the quality of a benign but poorly formulated prompt affects the security of the generated code. To investigate this, we first propose an evaluation framework for prompt quality encompassing three key dimensions: goal clarity, information completeness, and logical consistency. Based on this framework, we construct and publicly release CWE-BENCH-PYTHON, a large-scale benchmark dataset containing tasks with prompts categorized into four distinct levels of normativity (L0-L3). Extensive experiments on multiple state-of-the-art LLMs reveal a clear correlation: as prompt normativity decreases, the likelihood of generating insecure code consistently and markedly increases. Furthermore, we demonstrate that advanced prompting techniques, such as Chain-of-Thought and Self-Correction, effectively mitigate the security risks introduced by low-quality prompts, substantially improving code safety. Our findings highlight that enhancing the quality of user prompts constitutes a critical and effective strategy for strengthening the security of AI-generated code.

SatSurfGS: Generalizable 2D Gaussian Splatting for Sparse-View Satellite Surface Reconstruction

Sparse-view satellite image surface reconstruction remains highly challenging, fundamentally because the reliability of multi-view matching under satellite imaging conditions is strongly spatially heterogeneous. Affected by large photometric differences, weak textures, and repetitive textures, multi-view geometric constraints are often sparse, unevenly distributed, and locally unreliable. Although 2D Gaussian Splatting (2DGS) is more suitable than 3D Gaussian Splatting (3DGS) for the explicit representation of continuous surfaces, research on generalizable feed-forward 2DGS frameworks for sparse-view satellite surface reconstruction is still lacking. To address this issue, we propose SatSurfGS, a generalizable sparse-view surface reconstruction method for satellite imagery based on 2DGS. The proposed method builds a coarse-to-fine Gaussian attribute prediction framework and explicitly models local geometric reliability at three levels: feature learning, Gaussian parameter estimation, and training optimization. Specifically, we propose a confidence-aware monocular multi-view feature fusion module to adaptively integrate monocular priors and multi-view matching features according to local confidence; a cross-stage self-consistency residual guidance module to stabilize stage-wise Gaussian parameter refinement using the residual between the rendered height map from the previous stage and the current-stage MVS height map, together with confidence information; and a confidence bidirectional routing loss to achieve differentiated allocation of geometric and appearance supervision. Experiments on satellite datasets show that the proposed method achieves improved rendering quality, surface reconstruction accuracy, cross-dataset generalization, and inference efficiency compared with representative generalizable baselines and competitive per-scene optimization methods.
