MAD-LEO: A Maneuver-Annotated Orbital Dataset for LEO Satellites with Tiered Multi-Source Evidence

With the rapid development of aerospace technology and the large-scale deployment of low Earth orbit (LEO) constellations, the risk of orbital collisions has increased, creating a growing demand for reliable observations of satellite maneuvers. However, public datasets containing real maneuver records remain scarce. We present MAD-LEO, a Maneuver-Annotated orbital Dataset for LEO satellites. The mission-reported subset contains 1,134 maneuver events from eleven geodetic and altimetry satellites spanning 1992 to 2026, with labels taken directly from mission-published maneuver histories. Each event is checked against two-line element (TLE) data, precise orbit products, and satellite laser ranging (SLR) observations, with evidence tiers assigned according to data availability. The operational subset pairs operator-published ephemerides for 6,785 Starlink satellites with cataloged TLE records over a continuous 107-hour period. Technical validation across seven machine-readable experiment suites confirms the cross-source consistency of the labels and the evidence products.

EmotionDialogCN: A Spontaneous Multimodal Dataset for Mandarin Emotional Dialogue

Face-to-face audiovisual interaction is central to human communication, conveying rich emotional and social cues. However, existing multimodal dialogue datasets remain limited by inadequate emotion annotations, poor emotional diversity, and small scale. We introduce EmotionDialogCN, a large-scale audiovisual-emotional dataset designed to capture authentic face-to-face communication. It contains 21,880 dialogue sessions performed by 119 professional actors across 20 everyday scenarios, covering 18 emotion categories with over 400 hours of recordings, the largest and most comprehensive dataset of its kind. A novel data collection framework minimizes equipment interference, enabling natural and nuanced emotional expressions. EmotionDialogCN achieves an emotion distribution deviation of 0.64 from real human emotion statistics (versus 5.65 for prior datasets) and consistent subject framing (52-59% frame occupancy). Together, these properties translate into stable unimodal and multimodal performance across acoustic, lexical, and visual modalities, with fusion results further underscoring strong multimodal alignment and cross-modal complementarity.

JustLLMGRPO: Radiographic Control for Chest X-Ray Generation

Text-conditioned chest X-ray generation aims to synthesize realistic radiographs that faithfully depict specified findings. Existing work has primarily improved quality by updating image generators, implicitly treating prompts as fixed after CXR-domain adaptation. We show that this generator-centric view leaves a substantial optimization dimension underexplored. With a CXR-adapted Sana generator frozen, one-pass reformulation by an unmodified LLM reduces RadDINO-FID from 54.225 to 27.572. Prompt analysis shows that the LLM suppresses temporal comparisons, uncertainty, and other non-renderable report content while emphasizing visible radiographic findings. However, unconstrained reformulation reduces BioViL-T alignment with source prompts from 0.695 to 0.609. We therefore introduce JustLLMGRPO, which applies standard Group Relative Policy Optimization (GRPO) only to the LLM prompt policy while keeping Sana frozen. Group-relative radiology-aware image feedback retains visual focus while preserving source-prompt alignment. On CheXGenBench, JustLLMGRPO reduces RadDINO-FID to 26.780, a 50.6% improvement over direct prompting, while maintaining alignment (0.696 versus 0.695). It also achieves state-of-the-art distribution coverage and downstream classification utility. These results show that substantial performance can remain latent in how radiographic information is expressed to an adapted generator.

PATH: Next-Interval Prediction via Autoregressive Tree Hierarchy on Tabular Data

Interval prediction aims to achieve a target coverage level while producing intervals that are as short as possible. Many conformal regression pipelines first predict an uncertainty surrogate and then convert it into an interval through calibration or selection. This separation supports coverage calibration, but post hoc rules largely determine the final interval and do not fully use the learned output distribution. We observe that the resulting intervals have inherently hierarchical geometry: an interval can be recursively refined into nested subintervals, and binary trees naturally represent this structure. We formulate this hierarchy as next-interval prediction and propose PATH, which learns how probability mass flows from each interval to its next nested subintervals. PATH predicts a base leaf distribution and uses an autoregressive decoder to refine branch probabilities. Matching the distribution to the interval hierarchy aligns learning with extraction: PATH accumulates probability over adjacent output intervals and returns the shortest contiguous range reaching a selected mass. We compare PATH with 24 baselines for interval prediction on PATHBench, comprising 56 OpenML regression datasets. PATH substantially shortens the resulting intervals, achieving the lowest mean normalized length, 0.1473, while maintaining mean coverage of 0.9144. These results establish hierarchical output modeling as an effective approach for compact interval prediction on tabular data. Code is publicly available at https://github.com/pxcai/PATH.

TARS: Timestep-Aware Data Scaling for 3D-Free Video Re-Shooting

Video re-shooting aims to regenerate videos with controllable camera motion and viewpoint. Existing methods rely on explicit 3D priors, which are limited by reconstruction quality and often perform poorly when synthesizing previously unseen regions, or on paired videos with different camera trajectories, whose scarcity hinders generalization. We revisit video re-shooting through text-driven semantic viewpoint specification, enabling control over shot scale, viewing angle, and first-/third-person perspective. To this end, we propose TARS, a 3D-free video re-shooting paradigm. Timestep-wise sensitivity analysis reveals that camera motion is primarily established during high-noise stages, where coarse spatiotemporal structures are formed. Based on this insight, we introduce self-supervised training to learn camera dynamics and fundamental visual representations without paired re-shooting data or 3D reconstruction. Through data scaling and joint textual-camera conditioning, TARS supports robust camera and viewpoint control, plausibly synthesizing regions beyond the source view under large camera motions while enabling reverse-angle re-shooting and perspective switching. Extensive experiments show that TARS provides more accurate and temporally consistent camera control than prior methods. Project Page: https://ymlinfeng.github.io/TARS.github.io/

PanDent: Toward Comprehensive Tooth-Level Structure-Language Consistency in Dental Radiology

Accurate evaluation of multimodal large language models (MLLMs) in dental panoramic radiography (orthopantomogram, OPG) is limited by the lack of fine-grained, clinically reliable benchmarks that reflect expert interpretation. This work introduces PanDent, a large-scale, clinically grounded OPG benchmark built upon fine-grained, expert-validated tooth-level annotations. The dataset comprises 9,524 high-quality OPGs, each associated with comprehensive structured annotations produced by experienced dentists and further validated by an oral and maxillofacial radiologist, providing clinically reliable supervision for tooth-level diagnosis and reasoning. Clinically consistent radiology reports are constructed from expert-validated findings using clinician-defined reporting logic, establishing explicit correspondence between structured clinical evidence and free-text descriptions. This design enables evaluation of whether MLLMs generate reports that are not only linguistically coherent but also clinically consistent with expert-validated tooth-level findings. Experiments are conducted on diverse MLLMs, including state-of-the-art (SOTA) proprietary models, general-domain open-source models, and medical-specific models. Results show that current MLLMs can generate fluent reports, yet fail to produce clinically consistent descriptions, exhibiting substantial errors in fine-grained localization and tooth-level diagnosis. Fine-tuning on PanDent significantly improves structure-language consistency, substantially enhancing visual localization accuracy and diagnostic correctness, and bringing model outputs closer to expert dental interpretation. These results establish PanDent as a rigorous benchmark for evaluating tooth-level clinical reasoning in MLLMs and a valuable resource for clinically grounded dental AI.

MAGiSt3R: Multi-Agent Feed-forward 3D Reconstruction from Monocular RGB Videos

This paper presents MAGiSt3R, a multi-agent 3D reconstruction framework performing reconstruction and camera tracking for monocular RGB videos at almost 10 FPS. MAGiSt3R relies on a feed-forward model from the 3R family to process RGB videos and regress local point maps, and on a merging model, MAGMA, that combines local maps at both intra-agent and inter-agent levels to obtain the final global point map. Furthermore, MAGiSt3R performs pose graph optimization to mitigate cumulative camera drift occurring along the feed-forward pipeline. We evaluate MAGiSt3R on both synthetic and real-world datasets, demonstrating its superior reconstruction and camera tracking accuracy compared to state-of-the-art approaches.

WeaveEarth: Structured Evidence Construction and Reasoning for Training-Free UHR Remote Sensing Understanding

Ultra-High-Resolution (UHR) remote sensing image understanding requires Vision-Language Models (VLMs) to capture both the global scene layout and sparse yet task-critical local details under limited computational budgets. Existing methods mainly follow two paradigms. One is passive perception, which relies on resolution expansion or token compression and may therefore discard fine-grained details. The other is active perception, which depends on multi-round zooming and search, but suffers from high latency, contextual fragmentation, and error accumulation. We argue that a more effective path toward UHR understanding lies not in accessing more, but in organizing better. To this end, we propose WeaveEarth, a training-free framework that reformulates UHR understanding as a problem of structured evidence construction and reasoning under global context constraints. Specifically, WeaveEarth first employs Global-Aware Evidence Construction to select a compact, low-redundancy, and spatially complementary Minimal Support Evidence Set. It then introduces Structured Evidence Reasoning, which weaves local evidence, spatial metadata, and relative topology into a unified reasoning interface, thereby enhancing the VLM's ability to perform global-local joint reasoning. Extensive experiments show that WeaveEarth consistently outperforms strong baselines and existing UHR methods across multiple UHR remote sensing benchmarks and multiple frozen VLM backbones.

Curriculum Reinforcement Learning Can Incentivize Reasoning Capacity in LLMs Beyond the Base Model

Reinforcement learning with verifiable rewards (RLVR) is widely viewed as a promising path toward continuously improving large language models. Recent works, however, suggest that mainstream RLVR often reallocates sampling probabilities among trajectories already present in the base model: it can improve sampling efficiency, reflected by higher pass@1 scores, but yields limited gains, and can even decrease pass@k scores when k is large, and therefore may fail to expand the base model's reasoning capacity boundary. In this paper, we present a boundary-aware Curriculum RL approach to move beyond the base model's reasoning capacity boundary. Our approach first uses pass@k sampling to locate the current reasoning capacity boundary, then applies targeted teacher guidance to examples near or beyond that boundary, and finally uses RL to consolidate the newly introduced reasoning patterns. Across Qwen, Llama, and DeepSeek base models, boundary-aware Curriculum RL improves both pass@1 scores and pass@256 scores, with pass@1 reflecting one-attempt performance and pass@256 serving as an empirical proxy for the reasoning capacity boundary. In our experiments, average pass@256 improves by 9.8 percentage points over the base models and by 10.3 percentage points over Vanilla RLVR. These results suggest that boundary-aware Curriculum RL can provide a scalable route for LLMs to continuously improve beyond the base model's empirical reasoning capacity boundary.

OmniDirector: General Multi-Shot Camera Cloning without Cross-Paired Data

Cloning camera motion from reference videos is an important task in video generation, as videos provide intuitive and precise control. Existing methods either directly use parametric representations that fail to handle multi-shot generation or synthesize cross-paired data, which suffer from data scarcity, resulting in poor performance in complicated camera motion cloning. To address these issues, we introduce a general camera motion representation that encodes cameras as grid motion videos. This camera grid represents the camera parameters visually and supports the integration of diverse trajectories for multi-shot video generation. Building upon this, we propose OmniDirector, a unified framework trained on a million-scale camera grid-video pairs that coordinates characters, actions, and cameras to provide director-level control for multimodal diffusion transformers. Furthermore, we design a novel hierarchical prompt expansion agent that harmoniously integrates different control signals by systematically describing camera motion and visual content through understanding signal relationships. Extensive experiments demonstrate the superior performance and outstanding controllability of our framework. Project page: https://ymlinfeng.github.io/OmniDirector.github.io/

SciHorizon-DataEVA: An Agentic System for AI-Readiness Evaluation of Heterogeneous Scientific Data

AI-for-Science (AI4Science) is increasingly transforming scientific discovery by embedding machine learning models into prediction, simulation, and hypothesis generation workflows across domains. However, the effectiveness of these models is fundamentally constrained by the AI-readiness of scientific data, for which no scalable and systematic evaluation mechanism currently exists. In this work, we propose SciHorizon-DataEVA, a novel agentic system to scalable AI-readiness evaluation of heterogeneous scientific data. At the evaluation-criteria level, we introduce the Sci-TQA2 principles, which organize AI-readiness into four complementary dimensions: Governance Trustworthiness, Data Quality, AI Compatibility, and Scientific Adaptability. Each dimension is decomposed into measurable atomic elements that enable fine-grained and executable assessment. To operationalize these principles at scale, we develop Sci-TQA2-Eval, a hierarchical multi-agent evaluation approach orchestrated through a directed, cyclic workflow. Our Sci-TQA2-Eval dynamically constructs dataset-aware evaluation specifications by combining lightweight dataset profiling, applicability-aware metric activation, and knowledge-augmented planning grounded in domain constraints and dataset-paper signals. These specifications are executed through an adaptive, tool-centric evaluation mechanism with built-in verification and self-correction, enabling scalable and reliable assessment across heterogeneous scientific data. Extensive experiments on scientific datasets spanning multiple domains demonstrate the effectiveness and generality of SciHorizon-DataEVA for principled AI-readiness evaluation.

Kling-MotionControl Technical Report

Character animation aims to generate lifelike videos by transferring motion dynamics from a driving video to a reference image. Recent strides in generative models have paved the way for high-fidelity character animation. In this work, we present Kling-MotionControl, a unified DiT-based framework engineered specifically for robust, precise, and expressive holistic character animation. Leveraging a divide-and-conquer strategy within a cohesive system, the model orchestrates heterogeneous motion representations tailored to the distinct characteristics of body, face, and hands, effectively reconciling large-scale structural stability with fine-grained articulatory expressiveness. To ensure robust cross-identity generalization, we incorporate adaptive identity-agnostic learning, facilitating natural motion retargeting for diverse characters ranging from realistic humans to stylized cartoons. Simultaneously, we guarantee faithful appearance preservation through meticulous identity injection and fusion designs, further supported by a subject library mechanism that leverages comprehensive reference contexts. To ensure practical utility, we implement an advanced acceleration framework utilizing multi-stage distillation, boosting inference speed by over 10x. Kling-MotionControl distinguishes itself through intelligent semantic motion understanding and precise text responsiveness, allowing for flexible control beyond visual inputs. Human preference evaluations demonstrate that Kling-MotionControl delivers superior performance compared to leading commercial and open-source solutions, achieving exceptional fidelity in holistic motion control, open domain generalization, and visual quality and coherence. These results establish Kling-MotionControl as a robust solution for high-quality, controllable, and lifelike character animation.

Segment and Matte Anything in a Unified Model

Segment Anything (SAM) has recently pushed the boundaries of segmentation by demonstrating zero-shot generalization and flexible prompting after training on over one billion masks. Despite this, its mask prediction accuracy often falls short of the precision required in real-world applications. While several refinement modules have been proposed to boost SAM's segmentation quality, achieving highly accurate object delineation within a single, unified framework remains an open challenge. Furthermore, interactive image matting, which aims to generate fine-grained alpha mattes guided by diverse user hints, has not yet been explored in the context of SAM. Insights from recent studies highlight strong correlations between segmentation and matting, suggesting the feasibility of a unified model capable of both tasks. In this paper, we introduce Segment And Matte Anything (SAMA), a lightweight extension of SAM that delivers high-quality interactive image segmentation and matting with minimal extra parameters. Our Multi-View Localization Encoder (MVLE) captures detailed features from local views, while the Localization Adapter (Local-Adapter) refines mask outputs by recovering subtle boundary details. We also incorporate two prediction heads for each task into the architecture to generate segmentation and matting masks, simultaneously. Trained on a diverse dataset aggregated from publicly available sources, SAMA achieves state-of-the-art performance across multiple segmentation and matting benchmarks, showcasing its adaptability and effectiveness in a wide range of downstream tasks.

Kling-Omni Technical Report

We present Kling-Omni, a generalist generative framework designed to synthesize high-fidelity videos directly from multimodal visual language inputs. Adopting an end-to-end perspective, Kling-Omni bridges the functional separation among diverse video generation, editing, and intelligent reasoning tasks, integrating them into a holistic system. Unlike disjointed pipeline approaches, Kling-Omni supports a diverse range of user inputs, including text instructions, reference images, and video contexts, processing them into a unified multimodal representation to deliver cinematic-quality and highly-intelligent video content creation. To support these capabilities, we constructed a comprehensive data system that serves as the foundation for multimodal video creation. The framework is further empowered by efficient large-scale pre-training strategies and infrastructure optimizations for inference. Comprehensive evaluations reveal that Kling-Omni demonstrates exceptional capabilities in in-context generation, reasoning-based editing, and multimodal instruction following. Moving beyond a content creation tool, we believe Kling-Omni is a pivotal advancement toward multimodal world simulators capable of perceiving, reasoning, generating and interacting with the dynamic and complex worlds.

KlingAvatar 2.0 Technical Report

Avatar video generation models have achieved remarkable progress in recent years. However, prior work exhibits limited efficiency in generating long-duration high-resolution videos, suffering from temporal drifting, quality degradation, and weak prompt following as video length increases. To address these challenges, we propose KlingAvatar 2.0, a spatio-temporal cascade framework that performs upscaling in both spatial resolution and temporal dimension. The framework first generates low-resolution blueprint video keyframes that capture global semantics and motion, and then refines them into high-resolution, temporally coherent sub-clips using a first-last frame strategy, while retaining smooth temporal transitions in long-form videos. To enhance cross-modal instruction fusion and alignment in extended videos, we introduce a Co-Reasoning Director composed of three modality-specific large language model (LLM) experts. These experts reason about modality priorities and infer underlying user intent, converting inputs into detailed storylines through multi-turn dialogue. A Negative Director further refines negative prompts to improve instruction alignment. Building on these components, we extend the framework to support ID-specific multi-character control. Extensive experiments demonstrate that our model effectively addresses the challenges of efficient, multimodally aligned long-form high-resolution video generation, delivering enhanced visual clarity, realistic lip-teeth rendering with accurate lip synchronization, strong identity preservation, and coherent multimodal instruction following.

LayoutAgent: A Vision-Language Agent Guided Compositional Diffusion for Spatial Layout Planning

Designing realistic multi-object scenes requires not only generating images, but also planning spatial layouts that respect semantic relations and physical plausibility. On one hand, while recent advances in diffusion models have enabled high-quality image generation, they lack explicit spatial reasoning, leading to unrealistic object layouts. On the other hand, traditional spatial planning methods in robotics emphasize geometric and relational consistency, but they struggle to capture semantic richness in visual scenes. To bridge this gap, in this paper, we propose LayoutAgent, an agentic framework that unifies vision-language reasoning with compositional diffusion for layout generation. Given multiple input images with target objects in them, our method first employs visual-language model to preprocess the inputs through segmentation, object size estimation, scene graph construction, and prompt rewriting. Then we leverage compositional diffusion-a method traditionally used in robotics-to synthesize bounding boxes that respect object relations encoded in the scene graph for spatial layouts. In the end, a foreground-conditioned image generator composes the complete scene by rendering the objects into the planned layout guided by designed prompts. Experiments demonstrate that LayoutAgent outperforms other state-of-the-art layout generation models in layout coherence, spatial realism and aesthetic alignment.

HGACNet: Hierarchical Graph Attention Network for Cross-Modal Point Cloud Completion

Point cloud completion is essential for robotic perception, object reconstruction and supporting downstream tasks like grasp planning, obstacle avoidance, and manipulation. However, incomplete geometry caused by self-occlusion and sensor limitations can significantly degrade downstream reasoning and interaction. To address these challenges, we propose HGACNet, a novel framework that reconstructs complete point clouds of individual objects by hierarchically encoding 3D geometric features and fusing them with image-guided priors from a single-view RGB image. At the core of our approach, the Hierarchical Graph Attention (HGA) encoder adaptively selects critical local points through graph attention-based downsampling and progressively refines hierarchical geometric features to better capture structural continuity and spatial relationships. To strengthen cross-modal interaction, we further design a Multi-Scale Cross-Modal Fusion (MSCF) module that performs attention-based feature alignment between hierarchical geometric features and structured visual representations, enabling fine-grained semantic guidance for completion. In addition, we proposed the contrastive loss (C-Loss) to explicitly align the feature distributions across modalities, improving completion fidelity under modality discrepancy. Finally, extensive experiments conducted on both the ShapeNet-ViPC benchmark and the YCB-Complete dataset confirm the effectiveness of HGACNet, demonstrating state-of-the-art performance as well as strong applicability in real-world robotic manipulation tasks.

Kling-Avatar: Grounding Multimodal Instructions for Cascaded Long-Duration Avatar Animation Synthesis

Recent advances in audio-driven avatar video generation have significantly enhanced audio-visual realism. However, existing methods treat instruction conditioning merely as low-level tracking driven by acoustic or visual cues, without modeling the communicative purpose conveyed by the instructions. This limitation compromises their narrative coherence and character expressiveness. To bridge this gap, we introduce Kling-Avatar, a novel cascaded framework that unifies multimodal instruction understanding with photorealistic portrait generation. Our approach adopts a two-stage pipeline. In the first stage, we design a multimodal large language model (MLLM) director that produces a blueprint video conditioned on diverse instruction signals, thereby governing high-level semantics such as character motion and emotions. In the second stage, guided by blueprint keyframes, we generate multiple sub-clips in parallel using a first-last frame strategy. This global-to-local framework preserves fine-grained details while faithfully encoding the high-level intent behind multimodal instructions. Our parallel architecture also enables fast and stable generation of long-duration videos, making it suitable for real-world applications such as digital human livestreaming and vlogging. To comprehensively evaluate our method, we construct a benchmark of 375 curated samples covering diverse instructions and challenging scenarios. Extensive experiments demonstrate that Kling-Avatar is capable of generating vivid, fluent, long-duration videos at up to 1080p and 48 fps, achieving superior performance in lip synchronization accuracy, emotion and dynamic expressiveness, instruction controllability, identity preservation, and cross-domain generalization. These results establish Kling-Avatar as a new benchmark for semantically grounded, high-fidelity audio-driven avatar synthesis.
