Catalyzing Interactive HTML Generation Capabilities via High-Fidelity Reinforcement Learning

Generating HTML from natural-language specifications is an important application of code large language models (LLMs). Despite producing renderable pages, current models often fail to ensure functionality and visual quality during actual interaction. Existing methods typically target task-specific webpage supervision, leaving demanding interactive artifact optimization underexplored. Using mini-games as a challenging testbed, we expose limitations in interaction experience, reward signal, and credit assignment fidelity that are obscured by shallow webpage interactions. We introduce WebCatalyst, a browser-interaction reinforcement learning framework with three complementary components: a game-level GUI assessor for sustained interaction and evaluation, Visual Anchor for mitigating VLM reward hacking, and Action-Trace Credit for grounding token-level credit assignment in runtime execution traces. Trained on fewer than 1K requests, predominantly for games, WebCatalyst raises the Cookie-Bench Mini Games score from 68.8 to 75.3 and also the WebGen-Bench accuracy from 48.8 to 56.9 on Qwen3.6-35B-A3B, outperforming Claude Opus 4.7 in average rank across evaluated metrics. Further analysis shows that Visual Anchor prevents aesthetic degradation, while runtime-grounded credit assignment accelerates functional improvement. Together, our results show that improving feedback fidelity is the key to substantially advancing interactive HTML generation.

Event-STVG: Spatio-Temporal Video Grounding for Long-Form Event Reasoning

Spatio-Temporal Video Grounding (STVG) aims to jointly localize a target in space and time given a natural-language query. Despite continued advances, existing STVG benchmarks remain largely centered on localizing targets through instance-specific descriptions, leaving them largely decoupled from long-form reasoning increasingly emphasized in multimodal large language models (MLLMs). In this paper, we introduce Event-STVG, a task that shifts STVG from locating what is described toward event-level reasoning by unifying long-form context, repeated-event reasoning, event localization, role inference, and multi-target grounding. To facilitate research on Event-STVG, we construct a large-scale benchmark comprising 4,016 annotated event occurrences across soccer and seven additional domains. Experiments with state-of-the-art MLLMs reveal substantial difficulty, with the strongest model achieving only 5.4% m-vIoU at the 10-minute horizon. Across domains, we consistently observe confusion among repeated same-type events, spatial grounding bottlenecks, and rare success in jointly grounding all required roles. Event-STVG establishes a new challenge for visual understanding in MLLMs, calling for future models that can jointly reason about complex events across space and time.

DeepWeaver: Bridging the Evidence Synthesis Gap in Open-Ended Question Answering

Retrieve-then-generate pipelines are commonly used to produce deep-research answers for open-ended questions, but retrieval alone is insufficient: LLMs must organize noisy and fragmented evidence into comprehensive, well-cited answers. We refer to this process as evidence synthesis. However, direct generation often underuses evidence, misaligns citations, and collapses diverse information into shallow summaries, exposing an evidence synthesis gap between retrieval and generation. Thus, we propose DeepWeaver, a novel framework that weaves noisy retrieved evidence into comprehensive answers by maintaining Thought Block Chains (TBCs), a structured representation that groups claims, salient information, keywords, and supporting evidence. DeepWeaver uses subordinate TBCs to inspect residual evidence, commit TBC revisions, and discover new claims before final generation. We evaluate DeepWeaver on open-ended QA over both knowledge bases and the web, and introduce LoQA, a high-density benchmark for evidence synthesis. Across multiple LLMs, DeepWeaver improves content sufficiency, citation grounding, and detail preservation on LoQA, while achieving deeper insights and higher citation quality on DeepResearch Bench. These results show that evidence weaving is an effective mechanism for bridging retrieval and generation in open-ended QA. Our code is available at https://github.com/KlozeWang/DeepWeaver.

LoSiA: Efficient High-Rank Fine-Tuning via Subnet Localization and Optimization

Parameter-Efficient Fine-Tuning (PEFT) methods, such as LoRA, significantly reduce the number of trainable parameters by introducing low-rank decomposition matrices. However, existing methods perform extensive matrix multiplications in domain specialization tasks, resulting in computational inefficiency and sub-optimal fine-tuning performance. Hence, we propose LoSiA(Low-Resources Subnet Integration Adaptation), an innovative method that dynamically localizes and optimizes critical parameters during the training process. Specifically, it identifies a sub-network using gradient sparsity analysis and optimizes it as the trainable target. This design enables effective high-rank adaptation by updating only the sub-network parameters, reducing the additional matrix multiplication. We also present LoSiA-Pro, a faster implementation of LoSiA, which reduces the training latency by about $27\%$ compared to LoRA. Extensive evaluations show that our method achieves minimal performance drop compared to full fine-tuning, while requiring the least training time across domain specialization and common-sense reasoning tasks. Further analysis shows that LoSiA also reduces forgetting during continued training. The source code is available at https://github.com/KlozeWang/LoSiA.

Recurrent Knowledge Identification and Fusion for Language Model Continual Learning

Continual learning (CL) is crucial for deploying large language models (LLMs) in dynamic real-world environments without costly retraining. While recent model ensemble and model merging methods guided by parameter importance have gained popularity, they often struggle to balance knowledge transfer and forgetting, mainly due to the reliance on static importance estimates during sequential training. In this paper, we present Recurrent-KIF, a novel CL framework for Recurrent Knowledge Identification and Fusion, which enables dynamic estimation of parameter importance distributions to enhance knowledge transfer. Inspired by human continual learning, Recurrent-KIF employs an inner loop that rapidly adapts to new tasks while identifying important parameters, coupled with an outer loop that globally manages the fusion of new and historical knowledge through redundant knowledge pruning and key knowledge merging. These inner-outer loops iteratively perform multiple rounds of fusion, allowing Recurrent-KIF to leverage intermediate training information and adaptively adjust fusion strategies based on evolving importance distributions. Extensive experiments on two CL benchmarks with various model sizes (from 770M to 13B) demonstrate that Recurrent-KIF effectively mitigates catastrophic forgetting and enhances knowledge transfer.

MALoRA: Mixture of Asymmetric Low-Rank Adaptation for Enhanced Multi-Task Learning

Parameter-Efficient Fine-Tuning (PEFT) methods like LoRA have significantly improved the adaptation of LLMs to downstream tasks in a resource-efficient manner. However, in multi-task scenarios, challenges such as training imbalance and the seesaw effect frequently emerge. Mixture-of-LoRA (MoLoRA), which combines LoRA with sparse Mixture-of-Experts, mitigates some of these issues by promoting task-specific learning across experts. Despite this, MoLoRA remains inefficient in terms of training speed, parameter utilization, and overall multi-task performance. In this paper, we propose Mixture of Asymmetric Low-Rank Adaptaion (MALoRA), a flexible fine-tuning framework that leverages asymmetric optimization across LoRA experts. MALoRA reduces the number of trainable parameters by 30% to 48%, increases training speed by 1.2x, and matches the computational efficiency of single-task LoRA models. Additionally, MALoRA addresses overfitting issues commonly seen in high-rank configurations, enhancing performance stability. Extensive experiments across diverse multi-task learning scenarios demonstrate that MALoRA consistently outperforms all baseline methods in both inter-domain and intra-domain tasks.

UltraLink: An Open-Source Knowledge-Enhanced Multilingual Supervised Fine-tuning Dataset

Open-source large language models (LLMs) have gained significant strength across diverse fields. Nevertheless, the majority of studies primarily concentrate on English, with only limited exploration into the realm of multilingual abilities. In this work, we therefore construct an open-source multilingual supervised fine-tuning dataset. Different from previous works that simply translate English instructions, we consider both the language-specific and language-agnostic abilities of LLMs. Firstly, we introduce a knowledge-grounded data augmentation approach to elicit more language-specific knowledge of LLMs, improving their ability to serve users from different countries. Moreover, we find modern LLMs possess strong cross-lingual transfer capabilities, thus repeatedly learning identical content in various languages is not necessary. Consequently, we can substantially prune the language-agnostic supervised fine-tuning (SFT) data without any performance degradation, making multilingual SFT more efficient. The resulting UltraLink dataset comprises approximately 1 million samples across five languages (i.e., En, Zh, Ru, Fr, Es), and the proposed data construction method can be easily extended to other languages. UltraLink-LM, which is trained on UltraLink, outperforms several representative baselines across many tasks.

The Mean Curvature Measure

We assign a measure to an upper semicontinuous function which is subharmonic with respect to the mean curvature operator, so that it agrees with the mean curvature of its graph when the function is smooth. We prove that the measure is weakly continuous with respect to almost everywhere convergence. We also establish a sharp Harnack inequality for the minimal surface equation, which is crucial for our proof of the weak continuity. As an application we prove the existence of weak solutions to the corresponding Dirichlet problem when the inhomogeneous term is a measure.
