Bioinfoysis Technical Report

Large language model agents have shown promise in bioinformatics, but most existing systems focus primarily on producing final answers, treating planning, tool use, and code execution as transient interactions. This design is poorly suited to long-horizon bioinformatics tasks, where conclusions must remain connected to the data, computations, and intermediate evidence that support them. We introduce \textbf{Bioinfoysis}, a multi-agent harness that represents each request as a persistent, artifact-grounded analysis run. Bioinfoysis combines global planning with step-wise, evidence-driven replanning: the planner maintains an executable checklist and revises pending steps using structured handoffs returned after each worker execution. These handoffs bind intermediate results to their responsible agent, checklist step, and plan generation, preventing stale evidence from being silently reused after replanning. A controlled runtime validates generated scripts, tables, and figures before they are used in downstream analysis or reporting, while role-specific context, persistent memory, and governed bioinformatics skills support reliable execution over long analysis trajectories. We evaluate Bioinfoysis on BixBench and two question-answering tracks of LAB-Bench 2. On BixBench, Bioinfoysis achieves state-of-the-art accuracy of 82.4\%. Across four underlying language models, Bioinfoysis increases average accuracy from 27.81\% to 64.13\% on SeqQA2 and from 3.13\% to 31.25\% on DbQA2. These results demonstrate that reliable bioinformatics automation depends not only on model capability, but also on the harness that governs planning, execution, memory, and evidence flow. We hope that the emergence of Bioinfoysis will play a driving and leading role in the development of the bioinformatics community. Our demo website can be seen in https://report.bioinfoysis.com/.

RAD-DPO: Robust Adaptive Denoising Direct Preference Optimization for Generative Retrieval in E-commerce

Generative Retrieval (GR) is rapidly transforming e-commerce search by replacing traditional multi-stage pipelines with the autoregressive decoding of structured Semantic IDs (SIDs). Despite this architectural efficiency, aligning GR models with nuanced, real-world user preferences remains a critical challenge. While Direct Preference Optimization (DPO) offers an efficient alignment solution, its direct application to structured SIDs suffers from three limitations: (i) it penalizes shared hierarchical prefixes, causing gradient conflicts; (ii) it is vulnerable to noisy pseudo-negatives from implicit feedback; and (iii) in multi-label queries with multiple relevant items, it exacerbates a probability "squeezing effect" among valid candidates. To address these issues, we propose RAD-DPO, which introduces token-level gradient detachment to protect prefix structures, similarity-based dynamic reward weighting to mitigate label noise, and a multi-label global contrastive objective integrated with global SFT loss to explicitly expand positive coverage. Extensive offline evaluations and large-scale online A/B testing on JD.com's core search engine demonstrate that RAD-DPO achieves significant improvements in both retrieval precision and training efficiency, proving its robustness for massive industrial deployments.
