MedPMC: A Systematic Framework for Scaling High-Fidelity Medical Multimodal Data for Foundation Models

Medicine is inherently multimodal, requiring clinicians to synthesize information across diverse data streams. Yet the development of multimodal foundation models is constrained by limited access to large-scale, high-quality clinical data. Although PubMed Central (PMC) offers a complementary source of expert-authored image-text data, existing PMC-derived resources remain limited in fidelity, reproducibility, and clinical validation. We introduce MedPMC, an automated, continuously updatable framework that transforms permissively licensed literature into high-fidelity infrastructure for medical multimodal models. Applied to 6.1 million PMC articles, MedPMC curated 11 million medical image-text pairs. Component evaluations showed strong performance for initial screening (F1 = 93.2), multi-panel figure detection (F1 = 96.5), figure separation (mAP = 89.8), caption separation and alignment (F1 = 81.4; ROUGE-L = 85.3), and medical figure classification (F1 = 96.5). Manual review by five annotators, three with medical training, found 95.3% of MedPMC images medically relevant, versus 19.7% in a prior PMC-derived dataset. Across 26 benchmarks spanning 11 specialties, a MedPMC-trained CLIP-style model improved average zero-shot AUC by 7.1 percentage points over the strongest architecture-matched biomedical CLIP baseline despite using fewer than half as many image-text pairs. As the vision encoder in a multimodal large language model, it improved medical visual question-answering by 1.9 and 16.9 percentage points across two benchmarks. In 10,524 Yale New Haven Health System dermatology photographs, it improved morphology-to-image retrieval Recall@5 by 11.7 percentage points. These findings show that high-fidelity literature curation strengthens medical multimodal foundation models across benchmark and clinical settings. We publicly release the framework, corpus, benchmarks, and pretrained models.

AliyunConsoleAgent: Training Web Agents in Real-World Cloud Environments via Distillation and Reinforcement Learning

We present AliyunConsoleAgent, a web agent framework for automated documentation verification in real-world cloud consoles. Major cloud platforms encompass hundreds of products with rapid feature iteration, causing console UIs to frequently diverge from their corresponding documentation. Verifying that documented procedures accurately reflect the current console and can be executed end-to-end demands an estimated 4 million recurring inspections annually, yet manual coverage remains below 1%. While agent systems built on frontier proprietary models achieve high success rates, their prohibitive cost and data privacy constraints preclude large-scale deployment. We propose a two-stage training paradigm: supervised fine-tuning (SFT) on distilled frontier-model trajectories, followed by reinforcement learning using Group Relative Policy Optimization (GRPO) and a dual-channel outcome reward model in real cloud environments. To support large-scale RL training, we construct a high-determinism rollout system featuring Terraform-based resource pre-provisioning and LLM-driven on-demand provisioning, which effectively isolates environment noise from the training signal. We further introduce a rule-based reward evaluation protocol grounded in backend audit logs, providing objective, reward-hacking-resistant outcome judgment. Our model evolves from mechanical instruction following to autonomous decision-making with cloud console and product-specific understanding. Experiments on a challenging 278-task benchmark where the best frontier model achieves only 65.34% demonstrate that AliyunConsoleAgent-32B achieves a 63.52% mean success rate -- a 20.24 percentage-point improvement over the base model, narrowing the gap to the best frontier proprietary model to 1.82 pp (bootstrap 95% CI [-1.27, 7.39]) -- at 92% lower inference cost.

Spatiotemporal Bloch states of a spin-orbit coupled Bose-Einstein condensate in an optical lattice

We study the spatiotemporal Bloch states of a high-frequency driven two-component Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC) with spin-orbit coupling (SOC) in an optical lattice. By adopting the rotating-wave approximation (RWA) and applying an exact trial-solution to the corresponding quasistationary system, we establish a different method for tuning SOC via external field such that the existence conditions of the exact particular solutions are fitted. Several novel features related to the exact states are demonstrated, such as SOC leads to spin-motion entanglement for the spatiotemporal Bloch states, SOC increases the population imbalance of the two-component BEC and SOC can be applied to manipulate the stable atomic flow which is conducive to control quantum transport of the BEC for different application purposes.
