StructureClaw: Traceable LLM Agents and an Executable Benchmark for Structural Engineering Workflows

Addressing a structural-engineering request requires more than a single answer; it requires a chain of interdependent artifacts: interpreted requirements, a computable model, validation records, solver outputs, applicable engineering checks, and a final report. Evaluations centered on question answering or script generation may therefore reward fluent outputs even when the underlying workflow is incomplete, inconsistent, or non-executable. We present StructureClaw, an artifact-centered workbench in which LLM agents operate through governed engineering skills, typed tools, shared artifact state, and local analysis backends, together with StructureClaw-Bench, an executable benchmark of 150 controlled scenarios spanning standard workflows, interactive robustness, and multimodal structural-model reconstruction. Its analyzable standard and multimodal cases require both strict one-to-one structural-model matching and numerical-response agreement with frozen reference responses from the selected analysis engine; interactive cases instead require positive clarification or recovery evidence together with safe non-execution when appropriate. A trial succeeds only when every fixture-required assertion passes. Across nine text-agent configurations, generic-only execution passed the model-artifact check in 87.0% of retained outcomes but achieved only 22.0% E2E Success, whereas automatic StructureClaw reached 82.9%. Interactive and multimodal evaluations further identify semantic state consistency and executable model reconstruction as the dominant remaining bottlenecks. The code and benchmark are available at https://github.com/structureclaw/structureclaw.

AutoCut: End-to-end advertisement video editing based on multimodal discretization and controllable generation

Short-form videos have become a primary medium for digital advertising, requiring scalable and efficient content creation. However, current workflows and AI tools remain disjoint and modality-specific, leading to high production costs and low overall efficiency. To address this issue, we propose AutoCut, an end-to-end advertisement video editing framework based on multimodal discretization and controllable editing. AutoCut employs dedicated encoders to extract video and audio features, then applies residual vector quantization to discretize them into unified tokens aligned with textual representations, constructing a shared video-audio-text token space. Built upon a foundation model, we further develop a multimodal large language model for video editing through combined multimodal alignment and supervised fine-tuning, supporting tasks covering video selection and ordering, script generation, and background music selection within a unified editing framework. Finally, a complete production pipeline converts the predicted token sequences into deployable long video outputs. Experiments on real-world advertisement datasets show that AutoCut reduces production cost and iteration time while substantially improving consistency and controllability, paving the way for scalable video creation.

Tokenization Allows Multimodal Large Language Models to Understand, Generate and Edit Architectural Floor Plans

Architectural floor plan design demands joint reasoning over geometry, semantics, and spatial hierarchy, which remains a major challenge for current AI systems. Although recent diffusion and language models improve visual fidelity, they still struggle with coherent spatial reasoning and controllable generation. We present HouseMind, a multimodal large language model that unifies floor plan understanding, generation, and editing in one framework. We introduce discrete room-instance tokens to construct a unified vocabulary that bridges layouts and symbolic reasoning. With multimodal alignment and instruction tuning, the model synthesizes coherent, controllable layouts from text instructions. Experiments show how the framework achieves superior geometric validity and controllability while remaining efficient and locally deployable.

ChatHouseDiffusion: Prompt-Guided Generation and Editing of Floor Plans

The generation and editing of floor plans are critical in architectural planning, requiring a high degree of flexibility and efficiency. Existing methods demand extensive input information and lack the capability for interactive adaptation to user modifications. This paper introduces ChatHouseDiffusion, which leverages large language models (LLMs) to interpret natural language input, employs graphormer to encode topological relationships, and uses diffusion models to flexibly generate and edit floor plans. This approach allows iterative design adjustments based on user ideas, significantly enhancing design efficiency. Compared to existing models, ChatHouseDiffusion achieves higher Intersection over Union (IoU) scores, permitting precise, localized adjustments without the need for complete redesigns, thus offering greater practicality. Experiments demonstrate that our model not only strictly adheres to user specifications but also facilitates a more intuitive design process through its interactive capabilities.
