REBENCH: A Procedural, Fair-by-Construction Benchmark for LLMs on Stripped-Binary Types and Names (Extended Version)

Large Language Models (LLMs) have achieved remarkable progress in recent years, driving their adoption across a wide range of domains, including computer security. In reverse engineering, LLMs are increasingly applied to critical tasks such as function and variable name recovery and type inference. However, despite the rapid growth of research in this area, progress has been hindered by the absence of a standardized dataset. Existing studies rely on disparate datasets, preprocessing pipelines, and evaluation metrics, making fair comparisons between approaches difficult and obscuring a clear understanding of LLM capabilities in binary analysis. To address these challenges, we present REBench, a comprehensive benchmark dataset for evaluating LLMs on binary reverse engineering tasks. REBench consolidates a superset of existing datasets, comprising hundreds of millions of lines of source code and a diverse collection of binaries spanning multiple architectures and optimization levels. REBench adopts a knowledge-base-driven methodology that stores byte-level stack information to generate ground truth, ensuring that task difficulty is preserved while maintaining universal applicability. This design enables fair evaluation across tasks while avoiding simplifications that could bias results. As a use case, we apply REBench to measure the reverse engineering performance of LLMs and the result demonstrates difficulties in complex tasks.

SceneScribe-1M: A Large-Scale Video Dataset with Comprehensive Geometric and Semantic Annotations

The convergence of 3D geometric perception and video synthesis has created an unprecedented demand for large-scale video data that is rich in both semantic and spatio-temporal information. While existing datasets have advanced either 3D understanding or video generation, a significant gap remains in providing a unified resource that supports both domains at scale. To bridge this chasm, we introduce SceneScribe-1M, a new large-scale, multi-modal video dataset. It comprises one million in-the-wild videos, each meticulously annotated with detailed textual descriptions, precise camera parameters, dense depth maps, and consistent 3D point tracks. We demonstrate the versatility and value of SceneScribe-1M by establishing benchmarks across a wide array of downstream tasks, including monocular depth estimation, scene reconstruction, and dynamic point tracking, as well as generative tasks such as text-to-video synthesis, with or without camera control. By open-sourcing SceneScribe-1M, we aim to provide a comprehensive benchmark and a catalyst for research, fostering the development of models that can both perceive the dynamic 3D world and generate controllable, realistic video content.

Multi-Agent Systems: From Classical Paradigms to Large Foundation Model-Enabled Futures

With the rapid advancement of artificial intelligence, multi-agent systems (MASs) are evolving from classical paradigms toward architectures built upon large foundation models (LFMs). This survey provides a systematic review and comparative analysis of classical MASs (CMASs) and LFM-based MASs (LMASs). First, within a closed-loop coordination framework, CMASs are reviewed across four fundamental dimensions: perception, communication, decision-making, and control. Beyond this framework, LMASs integrate LFMs to lift collaboration from low-level state exchanges to semantic-level reasoning, enabling more flexible coordination and improved adaptability across diverse scenarios. Then, a comparative analysis is conducted to contrast CMASs and LMASs across architecture, operating mechanism, adaptability, and application. Finally, future perspectives on MASs are presented, summarizing open challenges and potential research opportunities.

Quantum-Resistant Quantum Teleportation

We propose a quantum-resistant quantum teleportation (QRQT) framework protected by post-quantum cryptography (PQC) to secure the classical correction channel, which is vulnerable to quantum adversaries. By applying PQC to the classical control bits, QRQT eliminates the classical attack surface of quantum teleportation. Our analysis reveals that quantum memory is a hidden bottleneck linking physical and computational security: its finite coherence time simultaneously limits communication distance, constrains tolerable PQC overhead, and restricts the adversary attack window. Under realistic parameters (1 ms coherence, fiber-optic propagation), the maximum secure teleportation distance ranges from 191 km (FrodoKEM-1344) to 199 km (Kyber512). We show that the joint classical-quantum attack probability exhibits a non-monotonic, Bell-shaped profile due to the opposing time dependencies of classical cryptanalysis and quantum decoherence, establishing a bounded optimal attack window beyond which adversarial success decays exponentially. We further analyze how leakage of classical correction bits affects teleportation security under four stochastic leakage models: independent exponential, sequential, burst, and correlated leakage, also accounting for amplitude damping on the shared Bell pair. For each scenario, we derive closed-form expressions for the average Holevo quantity and teleportation fidelity as functions of time, providing measurement-independent upper bounds on extractable information and guiding the design of leakage-resilient quantum communication protocols.

Geometry-Aware Cross Modal Alignment for Light Field-LiDAR Semantic Segmentation

Semantic segmentation serves as a cornerstone of scene understanding in autonomous driving but continues to face significant challenges under complex conditions such as occlusion. Light field and LiDAR modalities provide complementary visual and spatial cues that are beneficial for robust perception; however, their effective integration is hindered by limited viewpoint diversity and inherent modality discrepancies. To address these challenges, the first multimodal semantic segmentation dataset integrating light field data and point cloud data is proposed. Based on this dataset, we proposed a multi-modal light field point-cloud fusion segmentation network(Mlpfseg), incorporating feature completion and depth perception to segment both camera images and LiDAR point clouds simultaneously. The feature completion module addresses the density mismatch between point clouds and image pixels by performing differential reconstruction of point-cloud feature maps, enhancing the fusion of these modalities. The depth perception module improves the segmentation of occluded objects by reinforcing attention scores for better occlusion awareness. Our method outperforms image-only segmentation by 1.71 Mean Intersection over Union(mIoU) and point cloud-only segmentation by 2.38 mIoU, demonstrating its effectiveness.

OmniFood8K: Single-Image Nutrition Estimation via Hierarchical Frequency-Aligned Fusion

Accurate estimation of food nutrition plays a vital role in promoting healthy dietary habits and personalized diet management. Most existing food datasets primarily focus on Western cuisines and lack sufficient coverage of Chinese dishes, which restricts accurate nutritional estimation for Chinese meals. Moreover, many state-of-the-art nutrition prediction methods rely on depth sensors, restricting their applicability in daily scenarios. To address these limitations, we introduce OmniFood8K, a comprehensive multimodal dataset comprising 8,036 food samples, each with detailed nutritional annotations and multi-view images. In addition, to enhance models' capability in nutritional prediction, we construct NutritionSynth-115K, a large-scale synthetic dataset that introduces compositional variations while preserving precise nutritional labels. Moreover, we propose an end-to-end framework for nutritional prediction from a single RGB image. First, we predict a depth map from a single RGB image and design the Scale-Shift Residual Adapter (SSRA) to refine it for global scale consistency and local structural preservation. Second, we propose the Frequency-Aligned Fusion Module (FAFM) to hierarchically align and fuse RGB and depth features in the frequency domain. Finally, we design a Mask-based Prediction Head (MPH) to emphasize key ingredient regions via dynamic channel selection for more accurate prediction. Extensive experiments on multiple datasets demonstrate the superiority of our method over existing approaches. Project homepage: https://yudongjian.github.io/OmniFood8K-food/

VGA-Bench: A Unified Benchmark and Multi-Model Framework for Video Aesthetics and Generation Quality Evaluation

The rapid advancement of AIGC-based video generation has underscored the critical need for comprehensive evaluation frameworks that go beyond traditional generation quality metrics to encompass aesthetic appeal. However, existing benchmarks remain largely focused on technical fidelity, leaving a significant gap in holistic assessment-particularly with respect to perceptual and artistic qualities. To address this limitation, we introduce VGA-Bench, a unified benchmark for joint evaluation of video generation quality and aesthetic quality. VGA-Bench is built upon a principled three-tier taxonomy: Aesthetic Quality, Aesthetic Tagging, and Generation Quality, each decomposed into multiple fine-grained sub-dimensions to enable systematic assessment. Guided by this taxonomy, we design 1,016 diverse prompts and generate a large-scale dataset of over 60,000 videos using 12 video generation models, ensuring broad coverage across content, style, and artifacts. To enable scalable and automated evaluation, we annotate a subset of the dataset via human labeling and develop three dedicated multi-task neural assessors: VAQA-Net for aesthetic quality prediction, VTag-Net for automatic aesthetic tagging, and VGQA-Net for generation and basic quality attributes. Extensive experiments demonstrate that our models achieve reliable alignment with human judgments, offering both accuracy and efficiency. We release VGA-Bench as a public benchmark to foster research in AIGC evaluation, with applications in content moderation, model debugging, and generative model optimization.

Valve: Production Online-Offline Inference Colocation with Jointly-Bounded Preemption Latency and Rate

LLM inference powers latency-critical production services nowadays. The bursty nature of inference traffic results in over-provisioning, which in turn leads to resource underutilization. While online-offline colocation promises to utilize idle capacity, broad production deployment must overcome two major challenges: (i) large online interference due to slow or frequent preemptions, and (ii) extensive frameworks and drivers modifications, to colocate different models and support preemptions. We present Valve, a production-friendly colocation system that jointly bounds preemption latency and preemption rate. Specifically, Valve enables sub-millisecond compute preemption at most once per online request, and rate-limited sub-layer memory reclamation. These guaranties are provided by a GPU runtime that combines channel-controlled compute isolation, page-fault-free memory reclamation, and dynamic memory reservation. Critically, Valve is practical to deploy, requiring one line of driver modification and 20 lines of framework patch. Deployed on 8,054 GPUs in production, Valve improves cluster utilization by 34.6%, which translates to a 2,170 GPU save. This efficiency gains is achieved with minimal online interference, incurring <5% TTFT increase and <2% TPOT increase across workloads.

Disentangled World Models: Learning to Transfer Semantic Knowledge from Distracting Videos for Reinforcement Learning

Training visual reinforcement learning (RL) in practical scenarios presents a significant challenge, $\textit{i.e.,}$ RL agents suffer from low sample efficiency in environments with variations. While various approaches have attempted to alleviate this issue by disentangled representation learning, these methods usually start learning from scratch without prior knowledge of the world. This paper, in contrast, tries to learn and understand underlying semantic variations from distracting videos via offline-to-online latent distillation and flexible disentanglement constraints. To enable effective cross-domain semantic knowledge transfer, we introduce an interpretable model-based RL framework, dubbed Disentangled World Models (DisWM). Specifically, we pretrain the action-free video prediction model offline with disentanglement regularization to extract semantic knowledge from distracting videos. The disentanglement capability of the pretrained model is then transferred to the world model through latent distillation. For finetuning in the online environment, we exploit the knowledge from the pretrained model and introduce a disentanglement constraint to the world model. During the adaptation phase, the incorporation of actions and rewards from online environment interactions enriches the diversity of the data, which in turn strengthens the disentangled representation learning. Experimental results validate the superiority of our approach on various benchmarks.

Goal-Driven Reward by Video Diffusion Models for Reinforcement Learning

Reinforcement Learning (RL) has achieved remarkable success in various domains, yet it often relies on carefully designed programmatic reward functions to guide agent behavior. Designing such reward functions can be challenging and may not generalize well across different tasks. To address this limitation, we leverage the rich world knowledge contained in pretrained video diffusion models to provide goal-driven reward signals for RL agents without ad-hoc design of reward. Our key idea is to exploit off-the-shelf video diffusion models pretrained on large-scale video datasets as informative reward functions in terms of video-level and frame-level goals. For video-level rewards, we first finetune a pretrained video diffusion model on domain-specific datasets and then employ its video encoder to evaluate the alignment between the latent representations of agent's trajectories and the generated goal videos. To enable more fine-grained goal-achievement, we derive a frame-level goal by identifying the most relevant frame from the generated video using CLIP, which serves as the goal state. We then employ a learned forward-backward representation that represents the probability of visiting the goal state from a given state-action pair as frame-level reward, promoting more coherent and goal-driven trajectories. Experiments on Meta-World and Distracting Control Suite demonstrate the effectiveness of our approach.

MS-Mix: Sentiment-Guided Adaptive Augmentation for Multimodal Sentiment Analysis

Multimodal Sentiment Analysis (MSA) integrates complementary features from text, video, and audio for robust emotion understanding in human interactions. However, models suffer from severe data scarcity and high annotation costs, severely limiting real-world deployment in social media analytics and human-computer systems. Existing Mixup-based augmentation techniques, when naively applied to MSA, often produce semantically inconsistent samples and amplified label noise by ignoring emotional semantics across modalities. To address these challenges, we propose MS-Mix, an adaptive emotion-sensitive augmentation framework that automatically optimizes data quality in multimodal settings. Its key components are: (1) Sentiment-aware sample selection strategy that filters incompatible pairs via latent-space semantic similarity to prevent contradictory emotion mixing. (2) Sentiment intensity guided module with multi-head self-attention for computing modality-specific mixing ratios conditioned on emotional salience dynamically. (3) Sentiment alignment loss based on Kullback-Leibler divergence to align predicted sentiment distributions across modalities with ground-truth labels, improving discrimination and consistency. Extensive experiments on two public datasets with six state-of-the-art backbones confirm that MS-Mix consistently outperforms prior methods, significantly improving robustness and practical applicability for MSA.

Heddle: A Distributed Orchestration System for Agentic RL Rollout

Agentic Reinforcement Learning (RL) enables LLMs to solve complex tasks by alternating between a data-collection rollout phase and a policy training phase. During rollout, the agent generates trajectories, i.e., multi-step interactions between LLMs and external tools. Yet, frequent tool calls induce long-tailed trajectory generation that bottlenecks rollouts. This stems from step-centric designs that ignore trajectory context, triggering three system problems for long-tail trajectory generation: queueing delays, interference overhead, and inflated per-token time. We propose Heddle, a trajectory-centric system to optimize the when, where, and how of agentic rollout execution. Heddle integrates three core mechanisms: trajectory-level scheduling using runtime prediction and progressive priority to minimize cumulative queueing; trajectory-aware placement via presorted dynamic programming and opportunistic migration during idle tool call intervals to minimize interference; and trajectory-adaptive resource manager that dynamically tunes model parallelism to accelerate the per-token time of long-tail trajectories while maintaining high throughput for short trajectories. Evaluations across diverse agentic RL workloads demonstrate that Heddle effectively neutralizes the long-tail bottleneck, achieving up to 2.5$\times$ higher end-to-end rollout throughput compared to state-of-the-art baselines.

Disentangled Robot Learning via Separate Forward and Inverse Dynamics Pretraining

Vision-language-action (VLA) models have shown great potential in building generalist robots, but still face a dilemma-misalignment of 2D image forecasting and 3D action prediction. Besides, such a vision-action entangled training manner limits model learning from large-scale, action-free web video data. To address these issues, we propose DeFI, a novel framework that Decouples visual Forward and Inverse dynamics pretraining to exploit respective data sources, wherein video generation and action prediction are disentangled. We introduce the General Forward Dynamics Model (GFDM), pretrained on diverse human and robot videos for future prediction, and the General Inverse Dynamics Model (GIDM), trained via self-supervised learning to infer latent actions from unlabeled video transitions. These models are then integrated into a unified architecture for end-to-end finetuning on downstream tasks. In this manner, GFDM and GIDM first shine separately and then cooperate for mutual benefit. Extensive experiments on CALVIN ABC-D and SimplerEnv demonstrate state-of-the-art performance, with DeFI achieving an average task length of 4.51 for CALVIN, 51.2% success rate on SimplerEnv-Fractal benchmark and 81.3% success rate in real-world deployment, significantly outperforming prior methods.

Reasoning-Aligned Perception Decoupling for Scalable Multi-modal Reasoning

Recent breakthroughs in reasoning language models have significantly advanced text-based reasoning. On the other hand, Multi-modal Large Language Models (MLLMs) still lag behind, hindered by their outdated internal LLMs. Upgrading these LLMs is often prohibitively expensive, as it requires costly vision-language alignment retraining. To address this issue, we introduce Perception-Reasoning Decoupling, which modularizes the MLLM's reasoning component and makes it easily replaceable. This approach redefines the MLLM's role to convert multi-modal inputs into detailed textual outputs that can be processed by any powerful, external, text-only LLM reasoners. To align the MLLM's perceptual output with the final reasoning task, we propose a novel reinforcement learning algorithm called Visual Perception Optimization (VPO). VPO rewards the MLLM based on the correctness of answers generated by the external reasoner to produce faithful and query-relevant captions. Together, this decoupling pipeline and VPO form our Reasoning-Aligned PerceptIon Decoupling (RAPID) approach. Empirical results show that RAPID achieves significant performance gains on multi-modal reasoning benchmarks. Crucially, RAPID enables a novel inference-time scaling paradigm: Once trained with VPO, the MLLM can be paired with any state-of-the-art LLM reasoner for consistent performance improvement without retraining.

LVOmniBench: Pioneering Long Audio-Video Understanding Evaluation for Omnimodal LLMs

Recent advancements in omnimodal large language models (OmniLLMs) have significantly improved the comprehension of audio and video inputs. However, current evaluations primarily focus on short audio and video clips ranging from 10 seconds to 5 minutes, failing to reflect the demands of real-world applications, where videos typically run for tens of minutes. To address this critical gap, we introduce LVOmniBench, a new benchmark designed specifically for the cross-modal comprehension of long-form audio and video. This dataset comprises high-quality videos sourced from open platforms that feature rich audio-visual dynamics. Through rigorous manual selection and annotation, LVOmniBench comprises 275 videos, ranging in duration from 10 to 90 minutes, and 1,014 question-answer (QA) pairs. LVOmniBench aims to rigorously evaluate the capabilities of OmniLLMs across domains, including long-term memory, temporal localization, fine-grained understanding, and multimodal perception. Our extensive evaluation reveals that current OmniLLMs encounter significant challenges when processing extended audio-visual inputs. Open-source models generally achieve accuracies below 35%, whereas the Gemini 3 Pro reaches a peak accuracy of approximately 65%. We anticipate that this dataset, along with our empirical findings, will stimulate further research and the development of advanced models capable of resolving complex cross-modal understanding problems within long-form audio-visual contexts.

ANTS: Adaptive Negative Textual Space Shaping for OOD Detection via Test-Time MLLM Understanding and Reasoning

The introduction of negative labels (NLs) has proven effective in enhancing Out-of-Distribution (OOD) detection. However, existing methods often lack an understanding of OOD images, making it difficult to construct an accurate negative space. Furthermore, the absence of negative labels semantically similar to ID labels constrains their capability in near-OOD detection. To address these issues, we propose shaping an Adaptive Negative Textual Space (ANTS) by leveraging the understanding and reasoning capabilities of multimodal large language models (MLLMs). Specifically, we cache images likely to be OOD samples from the historical test images and prompt the MLLM to describe these images, generating expressive negative sentences that precisely characterize the OOD distribution and enhance far-OOD detection. For the near-OOD setting, where OOD samples resemble the in-distribution (ID) subset, we cache the subset of ID classes that are visually similar to historical test images and then leverage MLLM reasoning to generate visually similar negative labels tailored to this subset, effectively reducing false negatives and improving near-OOD detection. To balance these two types of negative textual spaces, we design an adaptive weighted score that enables the method to handle different OOD task settings (near-OOD and far-OOD), making it highly adaptable in open environments. On the ImageNet benchmark, our ANTS significantly reduces the FPR95 by 3.1\%, establishing a new state-of-the-art. Furthermore, our method is training-free and zero-shot, enabling high scalability. Codes are available at https://github.com/ZhuWenjie98/ANTS.

DriveFix: Spatio-Temporally Coherent Driving Scene Restoration

Recent advancements in 4D scene reconstruction, particularly those leveraging diffusion priors, have shown promise for novel view synthesis in autonomous driving. However, these methods often process frames independently or in a view-by-view manner, leading to a critical lack of spatio-temporal synergy. This results in spatial misalignment across cameras and temporal drift in sequences. We propose DriveFix, a novel multi-view restoration framework that ensures spatio-temporal coherence for driving scenes. Our approach employs an interleaved diffusion transformer architecture with specialized blocks to explicitly model both temporal dependencies and cross-camera spatial consistency. By conditioning the generation on historical context and integrating geometry-aware training losses, DriveFix enforces that the restored views adhere to a unified 3D geometry. This enables the consistent propagation of high-fidelity textures and significantly reduces artifacts. Extensive evaluations on the Waymo, nuScenes, and PandaSet datasets demonstrate that DriveFix achieves state-of-the-art performance in both reconstruction and novel view synthesis, marking a substantial step toward robust 4D world modeling for real-world deployment.

FAR-Drive: Frame-AutoRegressive Video Generation in Closed-Loop Autonomous Driving

Despite rapid progress in autonomous driving, reliable training and evaluation of driving systems remain fundamentally constrained by the lack of scalable and interactive simulation environments. Recent generative video models achieve remarkable visual fidelity, yet most operate in open-loop settings and fail to support fine-grained frame-level interaction between agent actions and environment evolution. Building a learning-based closed-loop simulator for autonomous driving poses three major challenges: maintaining long-horizon temporal and cross-view consistency, mitigating autoregressive degradation under iterative self-conditioning, and satisfying low-latency inference constraints. In this work, we propose FAR-Drive, a frame-level autoregressive video generation framework for autonomous driving. We introduce a multi-view diffusion transformer with fine-grained structured control, enabling geometrically consistent multi-camera generation. To address long-horizon consistency and iterative degradation, we design a two-stage training strategy consisting of adaptive reference horizon conditioning and blend-forcing autoregressive training, which progressively improves consistency and robustness under self-conditioning. To meet low-latency interaction requirements, we further integrate system-level efficiency optimizations for inference acceleration. Experiments on the nuScenes dataset demonstrate that our method achieves state-of-the-art performance among existing closed-loop autonomous driving simulation approaches, while maintaining sub-second latency on a single GPU.
