Speed by Simplicity: A Single-Stream Architecture for Fast Audio-Video Generative Foundation Model

We present daVinci-MagiHuman, an open-source audio-video generative foundation model for human-centric generation. daVinci-MagiHuman jointly generates synchronized video and audio using a single-stream Transformer that processes text, video, and audio within a unified token sequence via self-attention only. This single-stream design avoids the complexity of multi-stream or cross-attention architectures while remaining easy to optimize with standard training and inference infrastructure. The model is particularly strong in human-centric scenarios, producing expressive facial performance, natural speech-expression coordination, realistic body motion, and precise audio-video synchronization. It supports multilingual spoken generation across Chinese (Mandarin and Cantonese), English, Japanese, Korean, German, and French. For efficient inference, we combine the single-stream backbone with model distillation, latent-space super-resolution, and a Turbo VAE decoder, enabling generation of a 5-second 256p video in 2 seconds on a single H100 GPU. In automatic evaluation, daVinci-MagiHuman achieves the highest visual quality and text alignment among leading open models, along with the lowest word error rate (14.60%) for speech intelligibility. In pairwise human evaluation, it achieves win rates of 80.0% against Ovi 1.1 and 60.9% against LTX 2.3 over 2000 comparisons. We open-source the complete model stack, including the base model, the distilled model, the super-resolution model, and the inference codebase.

Can Adjusting Hyperparameters Lead to Green Deep Learning: An Empirical Study on Correlations between Hyperparameters and Energy Consumption of Deep Learning Models

Context: Along with developing Deep learning (DL) models, larger datasets and more complex model structures are applied, leading to rising computing resources and energy consumption, which is an alert that green DL models should receive more attention. Objective: This paper focuses on a novel view to analyze DL energy consumption: the effect of hyperparameters on the energy cost of DL models. Method: Our approach involves using mutation operators to simulate how practitioners adjust hyperparameters, such as epochs and learning rates. We train the original and mutated models separately and gather energy information and run-time performance metrics. Moreover, we focus on the parallel scenario where multiple DL models are trained in parallel. Results: To examine the effect of hyperparameters on energy consumption, we conducted extensive experiments on five real-world DL models. The results show that (1) many hyperparameters studied have a (positive or negative) correlation with energy consumption, (2) adjusting hyperparameters can make DL models greener, i.e., lead to less energy consumption without performance damage, and (3) in a parallel environment, energy consumption becomes more susceptible to change. Conclusions: We suggest that hyperparameters need more attention in developing DL models, as appropriately adjusting hyperparameters would cause green DL models.

NaturalGAIA: A Verifiable Benchmark and Hierarchical Framework for Long-Horizon GUI Tasks

Despite significant advances in LLM-driven GUI agents, the field remains constrained by the challenge of reconciling high-fidelity realism with verifiable evaluation accuracy. To address this, we introduce NaturalGAIA, a verifiable evaluation dataset grounded in real-world human GUI interaction intents. By decoupling logical causal pathways from linguistic narratives, it rigorously simulates natural human intent, characterized by cognitive non-linearity and contextual dependencies. Furthermore, we propose LightManus-Jarvis, a hierarchical collaborative framework where LightManus manages dynamic topological planning and context evolution, while Jarvis~ensures execution precision via hybrid visual-structural perception. Experiments demonstrate that our approach achieves a Weighted Pathway Success Rate of 45.6%, significantly outperforming the state-of-the-art baseline (21.1%), while reducing token consumption by 75% and execution time by 76%. These results validate the efficacy of the macro-planning and micro-execution paradigm in handling complex naturalized tasks.
