Intern-S2-Mobius: Foundation Model with Decoupled Knowledge and Reasoning

We introduce Mobius-v0, an architecture that comprises a globally shared Memory (FFN) that stores knowledge vectors and multiple Reasoners (Self-Attn) that iteratively achieve compositional reasoning. Using hidden states as cache and carrier, reasoners repeatedly query memory for required knowledge-vectors, while the knowledge is transmitted back to reasoning operators. Through this knowledge-reasoning-separation architecture, Mobius achieves better knowledge compression and reasoning efficiency. Built upon Mobius-v0 architecture: 1) Our 7B model trained-from-scratch achieves similar downstream score as a 7B Transformer baseline with 62.6% of baseline's training data. 2) Our Intern-S2-Mobius, continually-pretrained from Qwen3.5-35B, achieves similar downstream score while delivering nearly 4x end-to-end inference speedup.

AVOC: Enhancing Hour-Level Audio-Video Understanding in Omni-Modal LLMs via Retrieval-Inspired Token Compression

Multimodal Large Language Models have achieved remarkable progress in short-form audio-video understanding, yet long-form audio-video comprehension remains challenged by limited context windows and severe information redundancy. To address these bottlenecks, we propose AVOC, a framework for long-form audio-video understanding in Omni-modal Large Language Models. AVOC introduces a learnable token compression module between the modality encoders and the LLM backbone. We reframe multimodal token compression as a top-$K$ retrieval problem: given a fixed context budget, the module must retrieve a compact subset of tokens that best supports answering the user query. We draw inspiration from three classical Information Retrieval criteria for selecting informative units from a large candidate pool: relevance, importance, and diversity. AVOC instantiates each criterion as a tailored mechanism for audio-video understanding, and integrates them into a unified retrieval-style compression pipeline. Experiments show that AVOC achieves state-of-the-art performance on long-form audio-video benchmarks, surpassing the second-best model by 4.9 and 5.5 points in average accuracy on OmniVideoBench and LVOmniBench, respectively. Moreover, AVOC maintains robust performance on Audio-Video Needle-in-a-Haystack task at durations up to one hour.

MSJoE: Jointly Evolving MLLM and Sampler for Efficient Long-Form Video Understanding

Efficiently understanding long-form videos remains a fundamental challenge for multimodal large language models (MLLMs). In this paper, we present MLLM-Sampler Joint Evolution (MSJoE), a novel framework that jointly evolves the MLLM and a lightweight key-frame sampler for efficient long-form video understanding. MSJoE builds upon a key assumption that only a small subset of key-frames is truly informative for answering each question to a video. Specifically, MSJoE first reasons out several queries, which describe diverse visual perspectives relevant to the question. Then, these queries interact with a frozen CLIP model to produce a query-frame similarity matrix. Finally, a lightweight sampler predicts key-frame sampling weights from this matrix, selecting a compact set of informative frames, which are then fed into the MLLM for answer generation. Both the MLLM and sampler are jointly optimized through reinforcement learning, enabling co-adaptation of query-reasoning, frame-sampling, and key-frame understanding. A new long-video QA dataset containing 2.8K videos with 7K question-answer pairs is collected to support the training process. Extensive experiments on VideoMME, LongVideoBench, LVBench, and MLVU show that MSJoE achieves 8.0\% accuracy gain upon the base MLLM, and 1.1\% higher accuracy than strongest baseline method.

Urban Emergency Rescue Based on Multi-Agent Collaborative Learning: Coordination Between Fire Engines and Traffic Lights

Nowadays, traffic management in urban areas is one of the major economic problems. In particular, when faced with emergency situations like firefighting, timely and efficient traffic dispatching is crucial. Intelligent coordination between multiple departments is essential to realize efficient emergency rescue. In this demo, we present a framework that integrates techniques for collaborative learning methods into the well-known Unity Engine simulator, and thus these techniques can be evaluated in realistic settings. In particular, the framework allows flexible settings such as the number and type of collaborative agents, learning strategies, reward functions, and constraint conditions in practice. The framework is evaluated for an emergency rescue scenario, which could be used as a simulation tool for urban emergency departments.
