PersonaForge: Realistic Multi-Turn User Simulation for Agentic Systems

Large language models are increasingly used as agentic workflow executors, yet existing training data and benchmarks largely assume informationally complete, single-turn queries. Our analysis of 16K real-world sessions shows that 75.9% of interactions are multi-turn, revealing a substantial gap between how users interact with agents and how such systems are trained and evaluated. We introduce \textbf{PersonaForge}, a user simulation framework for synthesizing realistic multi-turn user--agent interactions. PersonaForge combines a four-dimensional persona space, SOUL-driven behavioral control calibrated to real-user statistics, and Reverse Deep Construction grounded in authentic seed queries. Using PersonaForge, we construct a 6.3K-record training dataset and \textbf{PersonaForge-Bench}, a manually annotated 138-task benchmark spanning over 20 professional domains with four-dimensional scoring. Experiments on Qwen3.5-27B show that PersonaForge training improves the composite score by +4.1%, with gains across all four dimensions and the largest improvements in Task Completion (+6.0%) and Response Quality (+6.8%). Further analyses show that PersonaForge-trained agents use fewer turns and tool calls, suggesting improved interaction efficiency, while ablations confirm the contribution of SOUL components and adaptive simulation. Together, PersonaForge and PersonaForge-Bench establish a foundation for training and evaluating agents under realistic multi-turn user interaction.

DBcover: A White-box SQL Test Generation Framework for Coverage Improvement

Relational Database Management Systems (RDBMSs) are the backbone of modern data-intensive applications, making reliability and robustness critical. However, achieving high coverage in RDBMS testing remains challenging because of large codebases and complex execution logic. Traditional fuzzing relies on random SQL generation and cannot capture the correspondence between SQL inputs and internal execution paths, while symbolic execution suffers from prohibitive cost and scalability limitations. We propose DBcover, an LLM-driven white-box SQL test generation framework based on contextual reasoning. DBcover uses lightweight dynamic analysis to extract SQL-to-path correspondence and call graphs as global context, and collects source-level information around target functions as local context. These contexts are organized in a unified knowledge graph for efficient retrieval and reuse. DBcover then performs two-phase test generation: it first selects a semantically relevant seed whose execution path is close to the uncovered target, and then guides the LLM with global and local context to generate SQL test cases that trigger previously uncovered code regions. Experiments show that DBcover achieves 80.1% and 82.3% coverage on PostgreSQL and MySQL, and is also effective on the enterprise RDBMS KingbaseES, demonstrating its practical applicability to closed-source systems.

From Blind Search to Memory-Aware Evolution: Efficient DBMS Tuning via Collaborative Diagnosis and Utility-Aware Retrieval

Modern DBMSs expose multiple configurable components (e.g., knobs, query hints, and indexes) that jointly determine query performance. Multi-component tuning is challenging due to the large combinatorial search space and the difficulty of learning effective tuning policies under limited feedback. Existing approaches still rely on blind search over the configuration space and interaction-heavy policy learning, leading to high tuning overhead and limited performance gains. Recent advances in large language models (LLMs) enable knowledge-driven tuning, but existing LLM-based methods fail to effectively exploit online feedback and historical observations, often converging prematurely to suboptimal configurations. In this paper, we present EvoTune, a memory-aware evolution framework for multi-component DBMS tuning. EvoTune first localizes a query-specific high-impact subspace via collaborative diagnosis, which combines lightweight pattern learning with LLM-based reasoning. It further introduces a utility-aware retrieval policy that selects informative observations based on their resulting long-term performance improvement, instead of similarity-based retrieval. To support continual improvement, EvoTune organizes tuning feedback into a hierarchical memory and incrementally refines both subspace localization and tuning policies without requiring LLM fine-tuning. Extensive experiments show that EvoTune consistently outperforms state-of-the-art baselines, achieving up to 44.5% performance improvement under the same tuning budget and reaching the best competing baseline's final performance up to 3.9X faster.

TVA: A Version-aware Temporal Graph Storage System for Real-time Analytics

Analyzing temporal graphs can reveal valuable insights that are typically hidden in static graphs. Unfortunately, existing graph storage systems either lack native temporal support or suffer from high latency when querying temporal graphs. This paper presents TVA, a new temporal graph storage system designed for efficient temporal query processing. First, TVA introduces a specialized multi-version storage architecture that separates version metadata from actual data, i.e., the property values associated with different versions of vertices and edges. This architecture enables efficient version retrieval for a vertex or edge by quickly locating valid version metadata and directly dereferencing it to access the corresponding property values. Second, we design tailored data structures, namely the temporal table and enhanced hopscotch-based hashing, to compactly organize the version metadata of adjacent vertices and edges, thus reducing random I/O for metadata lookups during the neighborhood scan initiated from a vertex. Finally, to further accelerate neighborhood scans over multiple vertices, we propose a version-kipping strategy that reuses temporal information obtained from prior scans, thereby avoiding redundant metadata lookups across scans. Empirical evaluations demonstrate that TVA achieves up to 9.9x lower temporal query latency and 2.2x lower storage overhead compared to state-of-the-art temporal graph storage systems.

RaBitQCache: Rotated Binary Quantization for KVCache in Long Context LLM Inference

Long-context Large Language Model inference is severely bottlenecked by the massive Key-Value (KV) cache, yet existing sparse attention methods often suffer from static fixed-budget (Top-k) retrieval or rely on proxy scores that are computationally expensive and biased. To address these limitations, we propose RaBitQCache, a novel sparse attention framework that utilizes randomized rotated binary quantization and high-throughput binary-INT4 arithmetic to efficiently estimate attention weights. Our proxy score serves as an unbiased estimator with a proven error bound, enabling adaptive Top-p retrieval that dynamically adjusts the token budget based on actual attention sparsity. We further implement a hardware-aware system with asynchronous pipelining and lazy updates to mask overhead. Evaluations demonstrate that RaBitQCache significantly accelerates inference and reduces memory I/O while preserving generation quality compared to state-of-the-art baselines. Code is available at https://github.com/Sakuraaa0/RaBitQCache.git.

MOPD: Multi-Teacher On-Policy Distillation for Capability Integration in LLM Post-Training

Modern large language models (LLMs) rely on reinforcement learning during post-training to push specific capabilities, yet integrating multiple capabilities into one model remains hard. Existing methods, such as Off-Policy Finetune and Mix-RL, are either inefficient or lose performance. In this work, we propose Multi-teacher On-Policy Distillation (MOPD), a post-training paradigm for combining the capabilities of multiple domain RL teachers: we first run per-domain specialised RL to obtain a set of domain teachers, then distill these teachers into the student on its own rollouts. This eliminates exposure bias and provides a dense optimization signal. On Qwen3-30B-A3B, MOPD outperforms Mix-RL, Cascade RL, Off-Policy Finetune, and Param-Merge baselines, inheriting nearly all of each teacher's capability. MOPD also enables parallel, independent development of domain teachers, removing the cross-domain coupling typical of multi-domain post-training. MOPD has been deployed in the post-training of MiMo-V2-Flash, an industrial-scale frontier model, demonstrating its practical value for capability integration in frontier-scale LLMs.

Training Prompt Matters: State-Adaptive Optimization for Robust Fine-Tuning

While prompt engineering is instrumental in maximizing the capabilities of Large Language Models (LLMs) during inference, the role of prompts during training remains critically underexplored. Prevailing fine-tuning paradigms typically treat training prompts as mere surface forms, assuming that semantically equivalent instructions yield identical learning outcomes. However, we reveal that this equivalence is deceptive: while paraphrased prompts often lead to comparable in-task performance, they induce drastically different cross-task impacts regarding catastrophic forgetting and generalization. Crucially, these impacts are positively correlated across tasks, indicating the existence of superior prompts that consistently yield better performance. Furthermore, we discover that these superior prompts can be robustly identified by task loss prior to learning. Leveraging these insights, we introduce State-Adaptive Prompt Optimization (SAPO), a lightweight yet effective training strategy that shifts task formulation from a static input to a dynamic, state-adaptive variable. Comprehensive experiments on diverse benchmarks confirm its effectiveness, which significantly mitigates forgetting while improving generalization, achieving substantial performance gains over state-of-the-art methods. These results provide insights into how training prompts shape learning dynamics and offer a practical recipe for robust fine-tuning. Our code is available at https://github.com/Eric8932/SAPO.

Scaling Agentic Capabilities via Grounded Interaction Synthesis

General agentic intelligence hinges on the ability to interact with diverse real-world tools to complete complex tasks, a capability fundamentally tied to the quality of interaction data. To bypass the prohibitive costs of human annotation, prevailing paradigms depend entirely on Large Language Models (LLMs) to scale the synthesis of agentic environments and tasks. However, such unconstrained generation often degenerates into biased random sampling of LLMs' internal priors, failing to capture the diversity and difficulty of real-world domains or construct high-fidelity, long-horizon tasks. In this work, we introduce Grounded Agentic Interaction Synthesis (GAIS), a framework that automates the scalable construction of diverse environments and complex tasks via a two-phase grounding mechanism. Specifically, we construct protocol-anchored environments derived from real-world Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers to ensure functional diversity and difficulty. Subsequently, we employ structure-guided planning to navigate these environments, actively enforcing logical dependencies and adversarial policies to generate complex tasks. Experiments on BFCL, $\tau^2$-Bench, and ACEBench demonstrate that GAIS-synthesized data significantly outperforms state-of-the-art baselines, enabling base models to match or even surpass their official instruction-tuned counterparts. Furthermore, GAIS exhibits superior data efficiency and scalability, achieving exceptional capabilities with significantly less data while maintaining continuous growth where baselines stagnate. Our code and dataset are publicly available at https://github.com/Eric8932/GAIS.

MiMo-V2-Flash Technical Report

We present MiMo-V2-Flash, a Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) model with 309B total parameters and 15B active parameters, designed for fast, strong reasoning and agentic capabilities. MiMo-V2-Flash adopts a hybrid attention architecture that interleaves Sliding Window Attention (SWA) with global attention, with a 128-token sliding window under a 5:1 hybrid ratio. The model is pre-trained on 27 trillion tokens with Multi-Token Prediction (MTP), employing a native 32k context length and subsequently extended to 256k. To efficiently scale post-training compute, MiMo-V2-Flash introduces a novel Multi-Teacher On-Policy Distillation (MOPD) paradigm. In this framework, domain-specialized teachers (e.g., trained via large-scale reinforcement learning) provide dense and token-level reward, enabling the student model to perfectly master teacher expertise. MiMo-V2-Flash rivals top-tier open-weight models such as DeepSeek-V3.2 and Kimi-K2, despite using only 1/2 and 1/3 of their total parameters, respectively. During inference, by repurposing MTP as a draft model for speculative decoding, MiMo-V2-Flash achieves up to 3.6 acceptance length and 2.6x decoding speedup with three MTP layers. We open-source both the model weights and the three-layer MTP weights to foster open research and community collaboration.

MiMo-Audio: Audio Language Models are Few-Shot Learners

Existing audio language models typically rely on task-specific fine-tuning to accomplish particular audio tasks. In contrast, humans are able to generalize to new audio tasks with only a few examples or simple instructions. GPT-3 has shown that scaling next-token prediction pretraining enables strong generalization capabilities in text, and we believe this paradigm is equally applicable to the audio domain. By scaling MiMo-Audio's pretraining data to over one hundred million of hours, we observe the emergence of few-shot learning capabilities across a diverse set of audio tasks. We develop a systematic evaluation of these capabilities and find that MiMo-Audio-7B-Base achieves SOTA performance on both speech intelligence and audio understanding benchmarks among open-source models. Beyond standard metrics, MiMo-Audio-7B-Base generalizes to tasks absent from its training data, such as voice conversion, style transfer, and speech editing. MiMo-Audio-7B-Base also demonstrates powerful speech continuation capabilities, capable of generating highly realistic talk shows, recitations, livestreaming and debates. At the post-training stage, we curate a diverse instruction-tuning corpus and introduce thinking mechanisms into both audio understanding and generation. MiMo-Audio-7B-Instruct achieves open-source SOTA on audio understanding benchmarks (MMSU, MMAU, MMAR, MMAU-Pro), spoken dialogue benchmarks (Big Bench Audio, MultiChallenge Audio) and instruct-TTS evaluations, approaching or surpassing closed-source models.

Testing Question Answering Software with Context-Driven Question Generation

Question-answering software is becoming increasingly integrated into our daily lives, with prominent examples including Apple Siri and Amazon Alexa. Ensuring the quality of such systems is critical, as incorrect answers could lead to significant harm. Current state-of-the-art testing approaches apply metamorphic relations to existing test datasets, generating test questions based on these relations. However, these methods have two key limitations. First, they often produce unnatural questions that humans are unlikely to ask, reducing the effectiveness of the generated questions in identifying bugs that might occur in real-world scenarios. Second, these questions are generated from pre-existing test datasets, ignoring the broader context and thus limiting the diversity and relevance of the generated questions. In this work, we introduce CQ^2A, a context-driven question generation approach for testing question-answering systems. Specifically, CQ^2A extracts entities and relationships from the context to form ground truth answers, and utilizes large language models to generate questions based on these ground truth answers and the surrounding context. We also propose the consistency verification and constraint checking to increase the reliability of LLM's outputs. Experiments conducted on three datasets demonstrate that CQ^2A outperforms state-of-the-art approaches on the bug detection capability, the naturalness of the generated questions as well as the coverage of the context. Moreover, the test cases generated by CQ^2A reduce error rate when utilized for fine-tuning the QA software under test

AgentFL: Scaling LLM-based Fault Localization to Project-Level Context

Fault Localization (FL) is an essential step during the debugging process. With the strong capabilities of code comprehension, the recent Large Language Models (LLMs) have demonstrated promising performance in diagnosing bugs in the code. Nevertheless, due to LLMs' limited performance in handling long contexts, existing LLM-based fault localization remains on localizing bugs within a small code scope (i.e., a method or a class), which struggles to diagnose bugs for a large code scope (i.e., an entire software system). To address the limitation, this paper presents AgentFL, a multi-agent system based on ChatGPT for automated fault localization. By simulating the behavior of a human developer, AgentFL models the FL task as a three-step process, which involves comprehension, navigation, and confirmation. Within each step, AgentFL hires agents with diversified expertise, each of which utilizes different tools to handle specific tasks. Particularly, we adopt a series of auxiliary strategies such as Test Behavior Tracking, Document-Guided Search, and Multi-Round Dialogue to overcome the challenges in each step. The evaluation on the widely used Defects4J-V1.2.0 benchmark shows that AgentFL can localize 157 out of 395 bugs within Top-1, which outperforms the other LLM-based approaches and exhibits complementarity to the state-of-the-art learning-based techniques. Additionally, we confirm the indispensability of the components in AgentFL with the ablation study and demonstrate the usability of AgentFL through a user study. Finally, the cost analysis shows that AgentFL spends an average of only 0.074 dollars and 97 seconds for a single bug.

ConAIR:Consistency-Augmented Iterative Interaction Framework to Enhance the Reliability of Code Generation

Code generation techniques generate code snippets automatically based on the problem requirements in natural language. Recently, large language models (LLMs) achieve the SOTA performance on code generation. However, LLMs still struggle at times to generate accurate code, which diminishes their promised efficiency as developers must spend significant effort evaluating and debugging the generated code. To improve the reliability and quality of the generated codes, researchers propose to leverage Consistency to obtain a better code based on generating and ranking multiple candidates. The existing approach is problematic as Consistency thinks a code is better when (1) the code pass more tests (inter-consistency) (2) more codes share the same behavior (intra-consistency). However, because the tests are also generated by LLMs, they could be wrong as well. As a result, majority voting based on testing results is unreliable. Relying solely on consistency is insufficient to address this issue; integrating user feedback is essential for effectively guiding consistency. We show that with minimal human effort, performance can be significantly enhanced. We propose Consistency-Augmented Iterative Interaction Framework to Enhance the Reliability of Code Generation, ConAIR, which is an approach that aims to improve the performance of a code generator through two distinctive ingredients, i.e., (1) lightweight user effort for validating the correctness of selected tests; and (2) a dynamic strategy for ranking, localizing and correcting multiple tests and codes. Overall, we propose a lightweight interaction framework that incorporates user feedback to correct identified tests and guide the iterative process. The iteration rounds are only 4 in average with the help of consistency. With only lightweight human efforts, we can achieve an improvement of 33% towards the base model.
