Non-Asymptotic Performance Guarantees for MLE under a Gumbel-Softmax Index Model with Phaseless Measurements

This paper studies the recovery of a complex-valued signal from index-only observations generated by a phaseless Gumbel-Softmax model. The model is motivated by limited-feedback frequency-division duplex massive MIMO systems, where it provides a smooth probabilistic surrogate for the deterministic hard-PMI selection rule. We consider a constrained maximum likelihood estimator and establish non-asymptotic statistical guarantees for its recovery performance. Under a bounded-design condition, we first derive a global excess-risk bound of order $\sqrt{d/T}$, which does not explicitly depend on the number of candidate indices. A quantitative local identifiability condition is then introduced to characterize the regime in which sharper local guarantees are available. Under this condition, the excess risk and squared parameter error both scale as $d/T$. The condition is further verified with high probability for a Haar--Stiefel random design, and a local minimax lower bound is established that matches the upper bound in its dependence on the sample size, signal dimension, temperature parameter, and signal norm, up to design-dependent factors. Numerical experiments on FDD downlink channel estimation demonstrate that the proposed likelihood-based approach can overall achieve superior reconstruction performance, supporting the effectiveness of the Gumbel-Softmax model as a surrogate for hard PMI feedback.

Benchmarking Large Vision-Language Models on CFMME: A Comprehensive Chinese Financial Multimodal Evaluation Dataset

The emergence of Large Vision-Language Models (LVLMs) has substantially expanded model capabilities beyond text-only understanding, enabling unified inference across both visual and textual modalities and supporting a broader range of real-world applications. To comprehensively evaluate the perception, understanding, reasoning, and cognition capabilities of LVLMs throughout the entire financial business workflow in Chinese contexts, we introduce CFMME, a novel Chinese financial multimodal evaluation benchmark. CFMME comprises 6,052 instances spanning from fundamental academic knowledge to complex real-world applications, covering eight primary financial image modalities and four core multimodal tasks. On CFMME, we conduct a thorough evaluation of representative LVLMs. The results show that the state-of-the-art model attains an overall accuracy of 66.11\% on the question answering task and an average score of 77.18 on the detection, recognition, and information extraction tasks, indicating substantial room for improvement in current LVLMs. In addition, we conduct detailed analyses of error causes, cross-modal capabilities, and multi-orientation settings, yielding valuable insights for future research. We hope that CFMME will spur further progress in LVLMs, especially by improving their performance on multiple multimodal tasks in the financial domain.

FinMCP-Bench: Benchmarking LLM Agents for Real-World Financial Tool Use under the Model Context Protocol

This paper introduces \textbf{FinMCP-Bench}, a novel benchmark for evaluating large language models (LLMs) in solving real-world financial problems through tool invocation of financial model context protocols. FinMCP-Bench contains 613 samples spanning 10 main scenarios and 33 sub-scenarios, featuring both real and synthetic user queries to ensure diversity and authenticity. It incorporates 65 real financial MCPs and three types of samples, single tool, multi-tool, and multi-turn, allowing evaluation of models across different levels of task complexity. Using this benchmark, we systematically assess a range of mainstream LLMs and propose metrics that explicitly measure tool invocation accuracy and reasoning capabilities. FinMCP-Bench provides a standardized, practical, and challenging testbed for advancing research on financial LLM agents.

DianJin-OCR-R1: Enhancing OCR Capabilities via a Reasoning-and-Tool Interleaved Vision-Language Model

Recent advances in vision-language models (VLMs) have enabled end-to-end document parsing and understanding, achieving strong performance on diverse optical character recognition (OCR) tasks. However, VLMs are prone to generate words that do not exist in the input image due to over-reliance on language priors. By contrast, traditional OCR models, whose architectures are tailored for specific recognition tasks, often achieve stronger fine-grained visual perception with fewer hallucinations, but they typically lack the contextual semantic understanding and reasoning capabilities needed in more challenging cases. To bridge this gap, we propose DianJin-OCR-R1, a reasoning-enhanced framework for recognition that trains VLMs in a reasoning-and-tool interleaved paradigm. Our DianJin-OCR-R1 model first recognizes the content in the input image through its own OCR capabilities, and then calls other expert models for extra results as references. After that, it is guided to "look again" at the image and compare its own recognized content with other results to find errors or omissions. Finally, it integrates all available evidence to generate a more accurate output. This design empowers the model to learn how to implicitly re-focus on the visual input and effectively leverage the results of other expert models for better performance. We evaluate our DianJin-OCR-R1 model on ReST and OmniDocBench, where it consistently outperforms both its non-reasoning counterparts and expert models, demonstrating the effectiveness of our method.

FinTeam: A Multi-Agent Collaborative Intelligence System for Comprehensive Financial Scenarios

Financial report generation tasks range from macro- to micro-economics analysis, also requiring extensive data analysis. Existing LLM models are usually fine-tuned on simple QA tasks and cannot comprehensively analyze real financial scenarios. Given the complexity, financial companies often distribute tasks among departments. Inspired by this, we propose FinTeam, a financial multi-agent collaborative system, with a workflow with four LLM agents: document analyzer, analyst, accountant, and consultant. We train these agents with specific financial expertise using constructed datasets. We evaluate FinTeam on comprehensive financial tasks constructed from real online investment forums, including macroeconomic, industry, and company analysis. The human evaluation shows that by combining agents, the financial reports generate from FinTeam achieved a 62.00% acceptance rate, outperforming baseline models like GPT-4o and Xuanyuan. Additionally, FinTeam's agents demonstrate a 7.43% average improvement on FinCUGE and a 2.06% accuracy boost on FinEval. Project is available at https://github.com/FudanDISC/DISC-FinLLM/.

AutoSAT: Automatically Optimize SAT Solvers via Large Language Models

Conflict-Driven Clause Learning (CDCL) is the mainstream framework for solving the Satisfiability problem (SAT), and CDCL solvers typically rely on various heuristics, which have a significant impact on their performance. Modern CDCL solvers, such as MiniSat and Kissat, commonly incorporate several heuristics and select one to use according to simple rules, requiring significant time and expert effort to fine-tune in practice. The pervasion of Large Language Models (LLMs) provides a potential solution to address this issue. However, generating a CDCL solver from scratch is not effective due to the complexity and context volume of SAT solvers. Instead, we propose AutoSAT, a framework that automatically optimizes heuristics in a pre-defined modular search space based on existing CDCL solvers. Unlike existing automated algorithm design approaches focusing on hyperparameter tuning and operator selection, AutoSAT can generate new efficient heuristics. In this first attempt at optimizing SAT solvers using LLMs, several strategies including the greedy hill climber and (1+1) Evolutionary Algorithm are employed to guide LLMs to search for better heuristics. Experimental results demonstrate that LLMs can generally enhance the performance of CDCL solvers. A realization of AutoSAT outperforms MiniSat on 9 out of 12 datasets and even surpasses the state-of-the-art hybrid solver Kissat on 4 datasets.

DISC-FinLLM: A Chinese Financial Large Language Model based on Multiple Experts Fine-tuning

We propose Multiple Experts Fine-tuning Framework to build a financial large language model (LLM), DISC-FinLLM. Our methodology improves general LLMs by endowing them with multi-turn question answering abilities, domain text processing capabilities, mathematical computation skills, and retrieval-enhanced generation capabilities. We build a financial instruction-tuning dataset named DISC-FIN-SFT, including instruction samples of four categories (consulting, NLP tasks, computing and retrieval-augmented generation). Evaluations conducted on multiple benchmarks demonstrate that our model performs better than baseline models in various financial scenarios.
