iFLYTEK-Embodied-Omni Technical Report

General-purpose embodied agents must understand multimodal instructions, anticipate how their environment will evolve, and produce precise control actions over extended horizons. Existing approaches typically specialize in visual-language reasoning, video-based world modeling, or action generation, while cascaded pipelines that first synthesize future observations and then infer actions can introduce interface bottlenecks and compound prediction errors. We present iFLYTEK-Embodied-Omni, a unified multimodal foundation model that jointly models vision(videos and images), language, and action within a single Omni framework. Its modality-specific visual-language, video-generation, and action-generation components communicate through shared multimodal self-attention. This design establishes brain-cerebellum collaboration: the vision-language modeland video generation model form a high-level brain for instruction understanding, task planning, progress tracking, and future visual-state prediction, whereas the action generation modelserves as a low-level cerebellum that directly converts planned subgoals and shared multimodal context into executable action chunks. To develop these capabilities, we combine action-annotated and action-free embodied videos from human demonstrations and robot interactions with embodied reasoning, embodied perception, and general-purpose image-text data to construct a comprehensive dataset. We further adopt a four-stage strategy that progressively trains the VLM, VGM, and AGM before jointly fine-tuning the complete model.

A Kubernetes custom scheduler based on reinforcement learning for compute-intensive pods

With the rise of cloud computing and lightweight containers, Docker has emerged as a leading technology for rapid service deployment, with Kubernetes responsible for pod orchestration. However, for compute-intensive workloads-particularly web services executing containerized machine-learning training-the default Kubernetes scheduler does not always achieve optimal placement. To address this, we propose two custom, reinforcement-learning-based schedulers, SDQN and SDQN-n, both built on the Deep Q-Network (DQN) framework. In compute-intensive scenarios, these models outperform the default Kubernetes scheduler as well as Transformer-and LSTM-based alternatives, reducing average CPU utilization per cluster node by 10%, and by over 20% when using SDQN-n. Moreover, our results show that SDQN-n approach of consolidating pods onto fewer nodes further amplifies resource savings and helps advance greener, more energy-efficient data centers.Therefore, pod scheduling must employ different strategies tailored to each scenario in order to achieve better performance.Since the reinforcement-learning components of the SDQN and SDQN-n architectures proposed in this paper can be easily tuned by adjusting their parameters, they can accommodate the requirements of various future scenarios.

Automatic Adjustment of HPA Parameters and Attack Prevention in Kubernetes Using Random Forests

In this paper, HTTP status codes are used as custom metrics within the HPA as the experimental scenario. By integrating the Random Forest classification algorithm from machine learning, attacks are assessed and predicted, dynamically adjusting the maximum pod parameter in the HPA to manage attack traffic. This approach enables the adjustment of HPA parameters using machine learning scripts in targeted attack scenarios while effectively managing attack traffic. All access from attacking IPs is redirected to honeypot pods, achieving a lower incidence of 5XX status codes through HPA pod adjustments under high load conditions. This method also ensures effective isolation of attack traffic, preventing excessive HPA expansion due to attacks. Additionally, experiments conducted under various conditions demonstrate the importance of setting appropriate thresholds for HPA adjustments.
