Same Scores, Different Decisions: Evaluating JEV and Language Models for Legal Document Understanding

Contract inference requires multiple judgments about a shared document, but aggregate accuracy can conceal changes in the individual decisions. Repeated agreement is also insufficient: a model may consistently return the wrong answer. In this paper, we compare Jev with nine language models on ContractNLI, evaluating inference cost, response time, average correctness, and correctness across repeated request conditions. Controlled comparisons vary hypothesis visibility, requested outputs, and output order while keeping the contract and target judgment fixed. Jev has the lowest cost and median response time among the evaluated configurations, while hosted language models achieve higher baseline accuracy. Rankings by baseline accuracy differ from rankings by correctness across every condition and repeat, although small differences in the latter do not establish a general stability advantage. Development diagnostics further reveal compensating corrections and regressions, as well as persistent errors. These findings motivate evaluating cost and response time alongside whether individual judgments remain correct as the request configuration changes. Code: https://github.com/ZF-Utokyo/Jev-Benchmark

Agility Meets Stability: Versatile Humanoid Control with Heterogeneous Data

Humanoid robots are envisioned to perform a wide range of tasks in human-centered environments, requiring controllers that combine agility with robust balance. Recent advances in locomotion and whole-body tracking have enabled impressive progress in either agile dynamic skills or stability-critical behaviors, but existing methods remain specialized, focusing on one capability while compromising the other. In this work, we introduce AMS (Agility Meets Stability), the first framework that unifies both dynamic motion tracking and extreme balance maintenance in a single policy. Our key insight is to leverage heterogeneous data sources: human motion capture datasets that provide rich, agile behaviors, and physically constrained synthetic balance motions that capture stability configurations. To reconcile the divergent optimization goals of agility and stability, we design a hybrid reward scheme that applies general tracking objectives across all data while injecting balance-specific priors only into synthetic motions. Further, an adaptive learning strategy with performance-driven sampling and motion-specific reward shaping enables efficient training across diverse motion distributions. We validate AMS extensively in simulation and on a real Unitree G1 humanoid. Experiments demonstrate that a single policy can execute agile skills such as dancing and running, while also performing zero-shot extreme balance motions like Ip Man's Squat, highlighting AMS as a versatile control paradigm for future humanoid applications.
