ProcCtrlBench: Evaluating Process-Level Defects and Control Preservation in LLM Coding Agents

Existing benchmarks for LLM coding agents primarily evaluate final outcomes. While useful for measuring overall capability, these metrics provide limited visibility and often miss defects that arise during execution. We present ProcCtrlBench, a benchmark for execution-process evaluation in LLM coding agents. ProcCtrlBench organizes recurrent execution defects into a reusable ontology covering 11 defect types in 4 categories, and evaluates agent trajectories through standardized process evidence rather than final outcomes alone. To support comparison across heterogeneous agents, ProcCtrlBench standardizes raw logs into a unified trajectory representation and reports calibrated scorecards over process-level findings. In addition, ProcCtrlBench uses control preservation as a way to quantify execution-process quality, capturing whether execution remains interpretable, interruptible, correctable, reversible, and able to hand back authority when needed. We evaluate ProcCtrlBench on 200 cases sampled from three benchmarks: AndroidBench, TerminalBench, and SWE-bench-Verified. Results show that ProcCtrlBench can be instantiated with useful reliability, provides more stable semantics than direct thresholding, and reveals meaningful differences in execution quality that are often overlooked by conventional outcome-based evaluation.

ICT-NLP at SemEval-2026 Task 3: Less Is More -- Multilingual Encoder with Joint Training and Adaptive Ensemble for Dimensional Aspect Sentiment Regression

This paper describes our system to SemEval-2026 Task 3 Track A Subtask 1 on Dimensional Aspect Sentiment Regression (DimASR). We propose a lightweight and resource-efficient system built entirely on multilingual pre-trained encoders, without relying on LLMs or external corpora. We adopt joint multilingual and multi-domain training to facilitate cross-lingual transfer and alleviate data sparsity, introduce a bounded regression transformation that improves training stability while constraining predictions within the valid range, and employ an adaptive ensemble strategy via subset search to reduce prediction variance. Experimental results demonstrate that our system achieves strong and consistent performance, ranking 1st on zho-res, 2nd on zho-lap, and 3rd on jpn-hot, with all remaining datasets placed within the top half of participating teams.

Non-Hermitian Anomalous Scaling Engineering

Non-Hermitian systems exhibit anomalous scaling, a striking departure from conventional bulk laws, rooted in the non-Hermitian skin effect (NHSE). Here, we experimentally uncover this scaling and demonstrate its active control in a temporal photonic lattice. By tracking the real-time evolution of all eigenstates as system size varies, we directly observe scaling-driven spectral reshaping and eigenstate localization, revealing phenomena absent in Hermitian or NHSE-free lattices. In a Su-Schrieffer-Heeger lattice, scaling alone can trigger a non-Hermitian topological phase transition, with edge modes remaining protected. Crucially, Kerr interactions open the frontier of nonlinear non-Hermitian physics: weak nonlinearity accelerates or decelerates anomalous scaling, while strong nonlinearity suppresses it entirely. These results establish the first experimental platform for linear and nonlinear anomalous scaling engineering, paving the way for compact non-Hermitian devices and exploration of nonlinear and many-body non-Hermitian phenomena.

FloorPlan-VLN: A New Paradigm for Floor Plan Guided Vision-Language Navigation

Existing Vision-Language Navigation (VLN) task requires agents to follow verbose instructions, ignoring some potentially useful global spatial priors, limiting their capability to reason about spatial structures. Although human-readable spatial schematics (e.g., floor plans) are ubiquitous in real-world buildings, current agents lack the cognitive ability to comprehend and utilize them. To bridge this gap, we introduce \textbf{FloorPlan-VLN}, a new paradigm that leverages structured semantic floor plans as global spatial priors to enable navigation with only concise instructions. We first construct the FloorPlan-VLN dataset, which comprises over 10k episodes across 72 scenes. It pairs more than 100 semantically annotated floor plans with Matterport3D-based navigation trajectories and concise instructions that omit step-by-step guidance. Then, we propose a simple yet effective method \textbf{FP-Nav} that uses a dual-view, spatio-temporally aligned video sequence, and auxiliary reasoning tasks to align observations, floor plans, and instructions. When evaluated under this new benchmark, our method significantly outperforms adapted state-of-the-art VLN baselines, achieving more than a 60\% relative improvement in navigation success rate. Furthermore, comprehensive noise modeling and real-world deployments demonstrate the feasibility and robustness of FP-Nav to actuation drift and floor plan distortions. These results validate the effectiveness of floor plan guided navigation and highlight FloorPlan-VLN as a promising step toward more spatially intelligent navigation.

Admissibility approach to nonuniform exponential dichotomies roughness with nonlocal perturbations

Nonuniform exponential dichotomy serves as an important characteristic of nonuniform hyperbolicity, while admissibility of function classes is often used to characterize nonuniform exponential dichotomy. In this paper, we investigate the preservation of nonuniform exponential dichotomy under certain nonlocal perturbations. By utilizing the concept of admissibility of a pair of function classes, we establish sufficient conditions to ensure that the dichotomy results are consistent with those in the homogeneous situation. These results need to satisfy a smallness integrability condition.

MarketGen: A Scalable Simulation Platform with Auto-Generated Embodied Supermarket Environments

The development of embodied agents for complex commercial environments is hindered by a critical gap in existing robotics datasets and benchmarks, which primarily focus on household or tabletop settings with short-horizon tasks. To address this limitation, we introduce MarketGen, a scalable simulation platform with automatic scene generation for complex supermarket environments. MarketGen features a novel agent-based Procedural Content Generation (PCG) framework. It uniquely supports multi-modal inputs (text and reference images) and integrates real-world design principles to automatically generate complete, structured, and realistic supermarkets. We also provide an extensive and diverse 3D asset library with a total of 1100+ supermarket goods and parameterized facilities assets. Building on this generative foundation, we propose a novel benchmark for assessing supermarket agents, featuring two daily tasks in a supermarket: (1) Checkout Unloading: long-horizon tabletop tasks for cashier agents, and (2) In-Aisle Item Collection: complex mobile manipulation tasks for salesperson agents. We validate our platform and benchmark through extensive experiments, including the deployment of a modular agent system and successful sim-to-real transfer. MarketGen provides a comprehensive framework to accelerate research in embodied AI for complex commercial applications.

OmniSpatial: Towards Comprehensive Spatial Reasoning Benchmark for Vision Language Models

Spatial reasoning is a key aspect of cognitive psychology and remains a bottleneck for current vision-language models (VLMs). While extensive research has aimed to evaluate or improve VLMs' understanding of basic spatial relations, such as distinguishing left from right, near from far, and object counting, these tasks cover only the most elementary layer of spatial reasoning and are largely approaching saturation in the latest reasoning models. In this work, we introduce OmniSpatial, a comprehensive and challenging benchmark for spatial reasoning, grounded in cognitive psychology. OmniSpatial covers four major categories: dynamic reasoning, complex spatial logic, spatial interaction, and perspective-taking, with 50 fine-grained subcategories. Through careful manual annotation, we construct over 8.4K question-answer pairs. Extensive experiments show that both open- and closed-source VLMs exhibit significant limitations in comprehensive spatial reasoning. We also explore two strategies-PointGraph (explicit scene graph cues) and SpatialCoT (novel-view chain-of-thought)-to bolster spatial reasoning.

Permutation groups and symmetric Hecke algebras

The endomorphism algebras of the permutation modules for transitive permutation groups, known as Hecke algebras, are fundamental objects in representation theory. While group algebras are known to be symmetric over any field, it is natural to ask whether this property extends to Hecke algebras. To study this, we introduce the new concepts of $p$-$S$-permutation groups (for a prime $p$) and $S$-permutation groups. A \emph{ $p$-$S$-permutation group} is a transitive permutation group whose associated Hecke algebra is symmetric over every field of characteristic $p$. An \emph{ $S$-permutation group} is a transitive permutation group that is a $p$-$S$-permutation group for all primes $p$. In this paper, we study Hecke algebras from a group-theoretical perspective and we show that several classes of permutation groups are $p$-$S$-permutation groups and $S$-permutation groups in our sense. This result represents a substantial extension of earlier work by Li and He. (Transform Groups, 30(4), 2025), and reframes the question of determining when the algebra \(\End_{KG}(KΩ)\) is symmetric within a more general theoretical framework.

Retrieval-Augmented Generation in Biomedicine: A Survey of Technologies, Datasets, and Clinical Applications

Large language models (LLMs) in biomedicine face a fundamental conflict between static parameter knowledge and the dynamic nature of clinical evidence. Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) addresses this by grounding generation in external data, yet it introduces new complexities in latency and architecture. This survey synthesizes the biomedical RAG landscape (2020-2025), classifying systems into naive, advanced, and modular paradigms. Beyond a technological taxonomy, we formalize the biomedical RAG trilemma, identifying the inherent trade-offs between reasoning depth, inference latency, and data privacy that constrain current clinical deployment. We analyze how recent agentic workflows enhance diagnostic reasoning but risk prohibitive latency, and how privacy constraints dictate the choice between powerful cloud-based models and local deployment. Finally, we outline the alignment gap in multimodal RAG and propose future directions for self-correcting, verifiable clinical agents.

ICA-RAG: Information Completeness Guided Adaptive Retrieval-Augmented Generation for Disease Diagnosis

Retrieval-Augmented Large Language Models (LLMs), which integrate external knowledge, have shown remarkable performance in medical domains, including clinical diagnosis. However, existing RAG methods often struggle to tailor retrieval strategies to diagnostic difficulty and input sample informativeness. This limitation leads to excessive and often unnecessary retrieval, impairing computational efficiency and increasing the risk of introducing noise that can degrade diagnostic accuracy. To address this, we propose ICA-RAG (\textbf{I}nformation \textbf{C}ompleteness Guided \textbf{A}daptive \textbf{R}etrieval-\textbf{A}ugmented \textbf{G}eneration), a novel framework for enhancing RAG reliability in disease diagnosis. ICA-RAG utilizes an adaptive control module to assess the necessity of retrieval based on the input's information completeness. By optimizing retrieval and incorporating knowledge filtering, ICA-RAG better aligns retrieval operations with clinical requirements. Experiments on three Chinese electronic medical record datasets demonstrate that ICA-RAG significantly outperforms baseline methods, highlighting its effectiveness in clinical diagnosis.

Hybrid-grained Feature Aggregation with Coarse-to-fine Language Guidance for Self-supervised Monocular Depth Estimation

Current self-supervised monocular depth estimation (MDE) approaches encounter performance limitations due to insufficient semantic-spatial knowledge extraction. To address this challenge, we propose Hybrid-depth, a novel framework that systematically integrates foundation models (e.g., CLIP and DINO) to extract visual priors and acquire sufficient contextual information for MDE. Our approach introduces a coarse-to-fine progressive learning framework: 1) Firstly, we aggregate multi-grained features from CLIP (global semantics) and DINO (local spatial details) under contrastive language guidance. A proxy task comparing close-distant image patches is designed to enforce depth-aware feature alignment using text prompts; 2) Next, building on the coarse features, we integrate camera pose information and pixel-wise language alignment to refine depth predictions. This module seamlessly integrates with existing self-supervised MDE pipelines (e.g., Monodepth2, ManyDepth) as a plug-and-play depth encoder, enhancing continuous depth estimation. By aggregating CLIP's semantic context and DINO's spatial details through language guidance, our method effectively addresses feature granularity mismatches. Extensive experiments on the KITTI benchmark demonstrate that our method significantly outperforms SOTA methods across all metrics, which also indeed benefits downstream tasks like BEV perception. Code is available at https://github.com/Zhangwenyao1/Hybrid-depth.

SoFar: Language-Grounded Orientation Bridges Spatial Reasoning and Object Manipulation

While spatial reasoning has made progress in object localization relationships, it often overlooks object orientation-a key factor in 6-DoF fine-grained manipulation. Traditional pose representations rely on pre-defined frames or templates, limiting generalization and semantic grounding. In this paper, we introduce the concept of semantic orientation, which defines object orientations using natural language in a reference-frame-free manner (e.g., the "plug-in" direction of a USB or the "handle" direction of a cup). To support this, we construct OrienText300K, a large-scale dataset of 3D objects annotated with semantic orientations, and develop PointSO, a general model for zero-shot semantic orientation prediction. By integrating semantic orientation into VLM agents, our SoFar framework enables 6-DoF spatial reasoning and generates robotic actions. Extensive experiments demonstrated the effectiveness and generalization of our SoFar, e.g., zero-shot 48.7% successful rate on Open6DOR and zero-shot 74.9% successful rate on SIMPLER-Env.

DreamVLA: A Vision-Language-Action Model Dreamed with Comprehensive World Knowledge

Recent advances in vision-language-action (VLA) models have shown promise in integrating image generation with action prediction to improve generalization and reasoning in robot manipulation. However, existing methods are limited to challenging image-based forecasting, which suffers from redundant information and lacks comprehensive and critical world knowledge, including dynamic, spatial and semantic information. To address these limitations, we propose DreamVLA, a novel VLA framework that integrates comprehensive world knowledge forecasting to enable inverse dynamics modeling, thereby establishing a perception-prediction-action loop for manipulation tasks. Specifically, DreamVLA introduces a dynamic-region-guided world knowledge prediction, integrated with the spatial and semantic cues, which provide compact yet comprehensive representations for action planning. This design aligns with how humans interact with the world by first forming abstract multimodal reasoning chains before acting. To mitigate interference among the dynamic, spatial and semantic information during training, we adopt a block-wise structured attention mechanism that masks their mutual attention, preventing information leakage and keeping each representation clean and disentangled. Moreover, to model the conditional distribution over future actions, we employ a diffusion-based transformer that disentangles action representations from shared latent features. Extensive experiments on both real-world and simulation environments demonstrate that DreamVLA achieves 76.7% success rate on real robot tasks and 4.44 average length on the CALVIN ABC-D benchmarks.

DexVLG: Dexterous Vision-Language-Grasp Model at Scale

As large models gain traction, vision-language-action (VLA) systems are enabling robots to tackle increasingly complex tasks. However, limited by the difficulty of data collection, progress has mainly focused on controlling simple gripper end-effectors. There is little research on functional grasping with large models for human-like dexterous hands. In this paper, we introduce DexVLG, a large Vision-Language-Grasp model for Dexterous grasp pose prediction aligned with language instructions using single-view RGBD input. To accomplish this, we generate a dataset of 170 million dexterous grasp poses mapped to semantic parts across 174,000 objects in simulation, paired with detailed part-level captions. This large-scale dataset, named DexGraspNet 3.0, is used to train a VLM and flow-matching-based pose head capable of producing instruction-aligned grasp poses for tabletop objects. To assess DexVLG's performance, we create benchmarks in physics-based simulations and conduct real-world experiments. Extensive testing demonstrates DexVLG's strong zero-shot generalization capabilities-achieving over 76% zero-shot execution success rate and state-of-the-art part-grasp accuracy in simulation-and successful part-aligned grasps on physical objects in real-world scenarios.

End-to-End Driving with Online Trajectory Evaluation via BEV World Model

End-to-end autonomous driving has achieved remarkable progress by integrating perception, prediction, and planning into a fully differentiable framework. Yet, to fully realize its potential, an effective online trajectory evaluation is indispensable to ensure safety. By forecasting the future outcomes of a given trajectory, trajectory evaluation becomes much more effective. This goal can be achieved by employing a world model to capture environmental dynamics and predict future states. Therefore, we propose an end-to-end driving framework WoTE, which leverages a BEV World model to predict future BEV states for Trajectory Evaluation. The proposed BEV world model is latency-efficient compared to image-level world models and can be seamlessly supervised using off-the-shelf BEV-space traffic simulators. We validate our framework on both the NAVSIM benchmark and the closed-loop Bench2Drive benchmark based on the CARLA simulator, achieving state-of-the-art performance. Code is released at https://github.com/liyingyanUCAS/WoTE.

Enhancing End-to-End Autonomous Driving with Latent World Model

In autonomous driving, end-to-end planners directly utilize raw sensor data, enabling them to extract richer scene features and reduce information loss compared to traditional planners. This raises a crucial research question: how can we develop better scene feature representations to fully leverage sensor data in end-to-end driving? Self-supervised learning methods show great success in learning rich feature representations in NLP and computer vision. Inspired by this, we propose a novel self-supervised learning approach using the LAtent World model (LAW) for end-to-end driving. LAW predicts future scene features based on current features and ego trajectories. This self-supervised task can be seamlessly integrated into perception-free and perception-based frameworks, improving scene feature learning and optimizing trajectory prediction. LAW achieves state-of-the-art performance across multiple benchmarks, including real-world open-loop benchmark nuScenes, NAVSIM, and simulator-based closed-loop benchmark CARLA. The code is released at https://github.com/BraveGroup/LAW.

However, their superb modeling capability is yet to be fully unleashed due to the limited video diversity in current driving datasets. We introduce DrivingDojo, the first dataset tailor-made for training interactive world models with complex driving dynamics. Our dataset features video clips with a complete set of driving maneuvers, diverse multi-agent interplay, and rich open-world driving knowledge, laying a stepping stone for future world model development. We further define an action instruction following (AIF) benchmark for world models and demonstrate the superiority of the proposed dataset for generating action-controlled future predictions.

AutoCast++: Enhancing World Event Prediction with Zero-shot Ranking-based Context Retrieval

Machine-based prediction of real-world events is garnering attention due to its potential for informed decision-making. Whereas traditional forecasting predominantly hinges on structured data like time-series, recent breakthroughs in language models enable predictions using unstructured text. In particular, (Zou et al., 2022) unveils AutoCast, a new benchmark that employs news articles for answering forecasting queries. Nevertheless, existing methods still trail behind human performance. The cornerstone of accurate forecasting, we argue, lies in identifying a concise, yet rich subset of news snippets from a vast corpus. With this motivation, we introduce AutoCast++, a zero-shot ranking-based context retrieval system, tailored to sift through expansive news document collections for event forecasting. Our approach first re-ranks articles based on zero-shot question-passage relevance, honing in on semantically pertinent news. Following this, the chosen articles are subjected to zero-shot summarization to attain succinct context. Leveraging a pre-trained language model, we conduct both the relevance evaluation and article summarization without needing domain-specific training. Notably, recent articles can sometimes be at odds with preceding ones due to new facts or unanticipated incidents, leading to fluctuating temporal dynamics. To tackle this, our re-ranking mechanism gives preference to more recent articles, and we further regularize the multi-passage representation learning to align with human forecaster responses made on different dates. Empirical results underscore marked improvements across multiple metrics, improving the performance for multiple-choice questions (MCQ) by 48% and true/false (TF) questions by up to 8%.
