Optimal control problem for reflected McKean--Vlasov stochastic differential equations with Poisson jumps

In this paper, we consider the optimal relaxed control problem for a class of one-dimensional reflected McKean--Vlasov stochastic differential equations with Poisson jumps. Due to the presence of the jump term, the state process generally belongs to the Skorokhod space $D([0,T],\Rp)$, which makes the proof of tightness and the passage to the limit more complicated. Under Lipschitz conditions and suitable growth conditions, we establish uniform moment estimates for the state process and the reflecting process. Then, by using Aldous' tightness criterion, the continuity of the Skorokhod map, and the stability results for stochastic integrals, we prove the existence of an optimal relaxed control. Furthermore, under the Roxin convexity condition, we prove the existence of a strict optimal control. In the general case, we show that relaxed controls can be approximated by a sequence of strict controls.

ProAgent: Harnessing On-Demand Sensory Contexts for Proactive LLM Agent Systems in the Wild

Recent studies have begun to explore proactive large language model (LLM) agents that provide unobtrusive assistance by automatically leveraging contextual information, such as in code editing and in-app suggestions. However, most focus on short, task-specific episodes or on-screen contexts, rather than continuously perceiving and assisting users throughout daily life. Enabling such in-the-wild assistance requires continuous sensing of users' surroundings, which can incur substantial system overhead. In this work, we propose ProAgent, an end-to-end proactive agent system that harnesses on-demand sensory contexts to provide in-the-wild assistance. ProAgent first employs on-demand tiered perception to continuously sense users' surroundings by integrating low-cost contextual cues with richer perception on demand, and uses proactive-oriented context extraction to derive hierarchical contexts integrating both sensory contexts and human preferences. ProAgent then employs a context-aware proactive reasoner to infer user needs and invokes external tools to deliver proactive assistance. We implement ProAgent on AR glasses and evaluate it on a public dataset and a real-world dataset. Results demonstrate that ProAgent achieves up to 27.7% higher proactive prediction accuracy and 20.5% lower false detection than state-of-the-art baselines. A user study with 20 participants shows that 85% were satisfied with ProAgent and willing to use it in daily life.

A Large-Scale Multimodal Dataset and Benchmarks for Human Activity Scene Understanding and Reasoning

Multimodal human action recognition (HAR) leverages complementary sensors for activity classification. Beyond recognition, recent advances in large language models (LLMs) enable detailed descriptions and causal reasoning, motivating new tasks: human action understanding (HAU) and human action reasoning (HARn). However, most LLMs, especially large vision language models (LVLMs), struggle with non-RGB modalities such as depth, IMU, and mmWave due to the lack of large-scale data-caption resources. Existing HAR datasets mainly provide coarse data-label annotations, which are insufficient to capture fine-grained action dynamics needed for HAU and HARn. We consider two ground-truth pair types: (1) data label (discrete category) and (2) data caption (textual description). Naively generating captions from labels often lacks logical and spatiotemporal consistency. We introduce CUHK-X, a large-scale multimodal dataset and benchmark suite for HAR, HAU, and HARn. CUHK-X contains 58,445 samples covering 40 actions performed by 30 participants across two indoor environments. To improve caption consistency, we propose a prompt-based scene creation method that leverages LLMs to generate logically connected activity sequences, followed by human validation. CUHK-X includes three benchmarks with six evaluation tasks. Experiments report average accuracies of 76.52% (HAR), 40.76% (HAU), and 70.25% (HARn). CUHK-X aims to enable the community to apply and develop data-intensive learning methods for robust, multimodal human activity analysis.

ContextAgent: Context-Aware Proactive LLM Agents with Open-World Sensory Perceptions

Recent advances in Large Language Models (LLMs) have propelled intelligent agents from reactive responses to proactive support. While promising, existing proactive agents either rely exclusively on observations from enclosed environments (e.g., desktop UIs) with direct LLM inference or employ rule-based proactive notifications, leading to suboptimal user intent understanding and limited functionality for proactive service. In this paper, we introduce ContextAgent, the first context-aware proactive agent that incorporates extensive sensory contexts surrounding humans to enhance the proactivity of LLM agents. ContextAgent first extracts multi-dimensional contexts from massive sensory perceptions on wearables (e.g., video and audio) to understand user intentions. ContextAgent then leverages the sensory contexts and personas from historical data to predict the necessity for proactive services. When proactive assistance is needed, ContextAgent further automatically calls the necessary tools to assist users unobtrusively. To evaluate this new task, we curate ContextAgentBench, the first benchmark for evaluating context-aware proactive LLM agents, covering 1,000 samples across nine daily scenarios and twenty tools. Experiments on ContextAgentBench show that ContextAgent outperforms baselines by achieving up to 8.5% and 6.0% higher accuracy in proactive predictions and tool calling, respectively. We hope our research can inspire the development of more advanced, human-centric, proactive AI assistants. The code and dataset are publicly available at https://github.com/openaiotlab/ContextAgent.

SFOD: Spiking Fusion Object Detector

Event cameras, characterized by high temporal resolution, high dynamic range, low power consumption, and high pixel bandwidth, offer unique capabilities for object detection in specialized contexts. Despite these advantages, the inherent sparsity and asynchrony of event data pose challenges to existing object detection algorithms. Spiking Neural Networks (SNNs), inspired by the way the human brain codes and processes information, offer a potential solution to these difficulties. However, their performance in object detection using event cameras is limited in current implementations. In this paper, we propose the Spiking Fusion Object Detector (SFOD), a simple and efficient approach to SNN-based object detection. Specifically, we design a Spiking Fusion Module, achieving the first-time fusion of feature maps from different scales in SNNs applied to event cameras. Additionally, through integrating our analysis and experiments conducted during the pretraining of the backbone network on the NCAR dataset, we delve deeply into the impact of spiking decoding strategies and loss functions on model performance. Thereby, we establish state-of-the-art classification results based on SNNs, achieving 93.7\% accuracy on the NCAR dataset. Experimental results on the GEN1 detection dataset demonstrate that the SFOD achieves a state-of-the-art mAP of 32.1\%, outperforming existing SNN-based approaches. Our research not only underscores the potential of SNNs in object detection with event cameras but also propels the advancement of SNNs. Code is available at https://github.com/yimeng-fan/SFOD.
