Dual-Process Atomic Skill Learning: Decoupling Semantic Reasoning and Real-Time Control

Language-conditioned Imitation Learning (IL) is essential for enabling robots to perform complex tasks following natural language instructions. However, generalizing to multi-step compositional tasks remains a significant challenge. While hierarchical approaches attempt to address this by decomposing tasks into atomic skills, existing methods often suffer from training instability and codebook collapse due to the tight coupling between high-level skill reasoning and low-level action generation in joint training paradigms. Inspired by the Dual-Process Theory of cognition, we propose Dual-Process Atomic Skill Learning (DASL), a novel asynchronous hierarchical imitation learning framework that decouples slow semantic reasoning from fast, real-time motion control. DASL comprises a Slow-Frequency Policy that predicts interpretable, discrete skills via Vector Quantization, and a High-Frequency Policy that leverages a latent diffusion model and a Decision Transformer to generate precise actions conditioned on these latent skills. By asynchronously coordinating these modules and utilizing diffusion to structure the latent space, our framework mitigates the skill codebook interference problem common in joint training paradigms. Evaluations across simulation benchmarks and experiment demonstrate that DASL significantly outperforms state-of-the-art baselines, excelling in skill acquisition and compositional generalization to unseen instructions.

M3MAD-Bench: Multi-Dimensional Evaluation of Multi-Agent Debate Across Domains and Modalities

As an agent-level reasoning and coordination paradigm, Multi-Agent Debate (MAD) orchestrates multiple agents through structured debate to improve answer quality and support complex reasoning. However, existing research on MAD suffers from two fundamental limitations: evaluations are conducted under fragmented and inconsistent settings, making fair comparison difficult, and are largely confined to text-only scenarios, leaving its effectiveness in multimodal settings underexplored. To address these gaps, we introduce M3MAD-Bench, a unified and extensible benchmark for evaluating MAD methods across Multi-domain tasks, Multi-modal inputs, and Multi-dimensional metrics. M3MAD-Bench establishes standardized protocols over five core task domains, including Knowledge, Mathematics, Medicine, Natural Sciences, and Complex Reasoning, covering a total of 13 datasets, and systematically includes both pure text and vision-language data, enabling controlled cross-modality comparison. We evaluate MAD methods on 9 base models spanning different architectures, scales, and modality capabilities. Beyond accuracy, M3MAD-Bench incorporates efficiency-oriented metrics such as token consumption and inference time, providing a holistic view of performance--cost trade-offs. Through extensive experiments, we derive nine key insights, revealing that MAD is not uniformly effective: collaborative methods are generally more robust than adversarial ones, especially on reasoning-intensive and multimodal tasks, but often incur substantial efficiency costs. These findings provide practical guidance for selecting and designing MAD strategies in real-world applications. We believe M3MAD-Bench offers a reliable foundation for future research on standardized and reproducible MAD evaluation. The code is available at https://github.com/liaolea/M3MAD-Bench.

R4Det: 4D Radar-Camera Fusion for High-Performance 3D Object Detection

4D radar-camera sensing configuration has gained increasing importance in autonomous driving. However, existing 3D object detection methods that fuse 4D Radar and camera data confront several challenges. First, their absolute depth estimation module is not robust and accurate enough, leading to inaccurate 3D localization. Second, the performance of their temporal fusion module will degrade dramatically or even fail when the ego vehicle's pose is missing or inaccurate. Third, for some small objects, the sparse radar point clouds may completely fail to reflect from their surfaces. In such cases, detection must rely solely on visual unimodal priors. To address these limitations, we propose R4Det, which enhances depth estimation quality via the Panoramic Depth Fusion module, enabling mutual reinforcement between absolute and relative depth. For temporal fusion, we design a Deformable Gated Temporal Fusion module that does not rely on the ego vehicle's pose. In addition, we built an Instance-Guided Dynamic Refinement module that extracts semantic prototypes from 2D instance guidance. Experiments show that R4Det achieves state-of-the-art 3D object detection results on the TJ4DRadSet and VoD datasets. The source code and models will be released at https://github.com/VDIGPKU/R4Det.
