OneBar: An End-to-End Content-Grounded Generative Query Recommendation Framework for E-Commerce Video Feeds

Short-video platforms now expose clickable search entries beneath the video player, enabling users to easily express content-induced search intent. However, conventional query recommendation systems on short-video platforms suffer from latency constraints and objective misalignment, while recent generative approaches struggle with noisy content-side metadata and preference drift. To address these issues, we propose OneBar, an end-to-end generative framework for real-time query recommendation for E-Commerce video feeds. OneBar features three key innovations: (1) a collaborative-multimodal intent grounding module that fuses multimodal video understanding and behavior-derived collaborative anchors; (2) a Unified End-to-End architecture equipped with a prompt-compression mechanism for efficient online serving; and (3) a progressive preference learning strategy for efficient preference-internalization, which internalizes hierarchical behavior preferences into the generative policy, eliminating the need for a separately trained reward model. Compared with online base, OneBar increases Query Exposure by 16.91\% and Query Click by 18.68\%, while maintaining a slight Query CTR gain of 0.19\%. The additional search traffic further contributes to 20.36\% more guided orders and 21.67\% higher GMV.

OneRetrieval: Unifying Multi-Branch E-commerce Retrieval with an Editable Generative Model

Industrial e-commerce search serves hundreds of millions of items through a multi-branch retrieval stage fused by hand-tuned merging without joint optimization. Generative retrieval (GR) raises the prospect of collapsing this stage into a single model, yet unification is gated by more than retrieval quality: the inverted-index branch converts below the platform average yet persists because it is almost the only branch where operations can inject a new term within hours without any model update; a one-model substitute must preserve this real-time editability. Existing GR methods structurally lack it: closed-codebook methods fix each slot to a quantized embedding at training, while open-vocabulary methods leave new-term routing to model generalization. We present OneRetrieval, a one-model GR framework built on Keyword-Aligned Encoding (KAE), which ties each identifier position to an interpretable attribute word, pairing competitive recall quality with the editability of the inverted index -- to our knowledge the first editable generative retrieval method. An information-theoretic merging organizes 18 attribute categories into six codebook groups with non-uniform capacity; reserved slots in each codebook can be bound to new words after deployment without retraining; and a four-stage fine-tuning pipeline secures quality and editability jointly. On five million real-traffic requests, OneRetrieval matches the deep recall of the strongest generative baseline, with an intervention hit rate over an order of magnitude above closed-codebook encodings. Online, replacing the inverted-index branch significantly lifts order volume; extending to nearly the entire stage holds conversion while improving CTR. The system is deployed at Kuaishou, serving hundreds of millions of PVs daily.

Plan Before Search: Search Agents Need Plan

Training large language models as retrieval-augmented reasoning agents typically combines reinforcement learning with an SFT cold start distilled from a stronger model. However, this paradigm overlooks two fundamental factors: the dependency structure among sub-skills, and the possibility that distillation is not the only route to capability acquisition. We study this through Plan, a structured agentic behavior for multi-hop retrieval that decomposes a question into ordered sub-questions before any retrieval is performed, so that each search step can be anchored to a pre-designed sub-question instead of drifting under the influence of partially relevant documents retrieved earlier. However, across three model families spanning 3B to 14B parameters, we find that an identical reward signal induces qualitatively different RL failure modes. This phenomenon indicates that successful training hinges not only on reward design but also on model-specific feasibility conditions: sufficient initial entropy, training stability, and prerequisite sub-skills. Motivated by this, we propose a self-bootstrapping paradigm in which a small-scale seed model generates filtered trajectories that activate Plan in any target model, eliminating the need for distillation from an external stronger model. Our pipeline activates Plan across every tested model and consistently outperforms competitive baselines on multi-hop QA benchmarks.

Search-E1: Self-Distillation Drives Self-Evolution in Search-Augmented Reasoning

Post-training has become the dominant recipe for turning a language model into a competent search-augmented reasoning agent. A line of recent work pushes its performance further by adding elaborate machinery on top of this standard pipeline. These augmentations import external supervision from stronger external systems, attach auxiliary modules such as process reward models or retrospective critics, restructure the rollout itself with tree search or multi-stage curricula, or shape the reward with hand-crafted bonuses and penalties. Each addition delivers a measurable gain, but each also inflates the training pipeline and ties the recipe to resources or designs that may not always be available. We take a step back and ask whether any of this machinery is actually necessary, and propose Search-E1, a self-evolution method that lets a search-augmented agent improve through only vanilla GRPO interleaved with on-policy self-distillation (OPSD). After each GRPO round, the policy rolls out on its own training questions. A token-level forward KL objective then aligns the policy's inference-time distribution to its own distribution under a privileged context that exposes a more efficient sibling trajectory. Despite this simplicity, the procedure naturally provides dense per-step supervision. On seven QA benchmarks, Search-E1 reaches 0.440 average EM with Qwen2.5-3B, surpassing all open-source baselines at both scales. Code and complete version will be made public soon.

SD-Search: On-Policy Hindsight Self-Distillation for Search-Augmented Reasoning

Search-augmented reasoning agents interleave internal reasoning with calls to an external retriever, and their performance relies on the quality of each issued query. However, under outcome-reward reinforcement learning, every search decision in a rollout shares the same trajectory-level reward, leaving individual queries without step-specific credit. Recent process-supervision approaches address this gap by drawing step-level signals from outside the policy, relying either on a much larger teacher model, or on sub-question annotations produced by a stronger external system. In contrast, we propose SD-Search, which derives step-level supervision from the policy itself through on-policy hindsight self-distillation, requiring neither an external teacher nor additional annotations. In SD-Search, a single model plays two roles that differ only in conditioning: a student that sees only the context available at inference time, and a teacher that additionally conditions on a compact hindsight block summarizing the search queries and final outcomes of a group of rollouts sampled from the same question. Since the teacher knows how each rollout unfolded and which ones succeeded, its query distribution implicitly marks which decisions were worth making, and the student is trained to recover this behavior by minimizing the token-level Jensen--Shannon divergence to the teacher at search-query positions. This layers a dense, step-level signal on top of GRPO's coarse trajectory reward. Crucially, this signal is produced by the policy itself within the standard RL training loop, without external model inference, auxiliary annotation pipeline, or additional training stage.

Bian Que: An Agentic Framework with Flexible Skill Arrangement for Online System Operations

Operating and maintaining (O&M) large-scale online engine systems (eg, search, recommendation and advertising) demands substantial human effort for release monitoring, alert response, and root cause analysis. Despite the inherent suitability of LLM-based agents for such operational scenarios, the critical bottleneck impeding their practical deployment lies not in reasoning, but in orchestration capability - specifically, the precise selection of relevant data (encompassing metrics, logs, and change events) and applicable knowledge (including handbook-defined rules and empirically derived practitioner experience) tailored to each individual operational event. Feeding all signals indiscriminately causes dilution and hallucination, while manually curating the event-to-(data, knowledge) mapping is intractable under dozens of daily releases. Here we present Bian Que, an agentic operating framework with three contributions: (i) The unified operational paradigm, which abstracts routine daily O&M actions into three canonical patterns: release interception, proactive inspection, and alert root cause analysis; (ii) The flexible Skill Arrangement, each predefined Skill explicitly defines the requisite data and operational knowledge for each specific context. Such Skills can be automatically generated and updated by LLM agents, and can also be iteratively optimized by on-call engineers via natural language instructions. (iii) The unified self-evolving mechanism, where each correction signal enables two parallel evolutionary pathways: distilling event memory into knowledge, and targeted refinement of Skills. Deployed on the e-commerce search engine of KuaiShou, Bian Que reduces alert volume by 75%, achieves 80% root-cause analysis accuracy, cuts mean time to resolution by over 50%, and attains a 99.0% pass rate on offline evaluations.

IG-Search: Step-Level Information Gain Rewards for Search-Augmented Reasoning

Reinforcement learning has emerged as an effective paradigm for training large language models to perform search-augmented reasoning. However, existing approaches rely on trajectory-level rewards that cannot distinguish precise search queries from vague or redundant ones within a rollout group, and collapse to a near-zero gradient signal whenever every sampled trajectory fails. In this paper, we propose IG-Search, a reinforcement learning framework that introduces a step-level reward based on Information Gain (IG). For each search step, IG measures how much the retrieved documents improve the model's confidence in the gold answer relative to a counterfactual baseline of random documents, thereby reflecting the effectiveness of the underlying search query. This signal is fed back to the corresponding search-query tokens via per-token advantage modulation in GRPO, enabling fine-grained, step-level credit assignment within a rollout. Unlike prior step-level methods that require either externally annotated intermediate supervision or shared environment states across trajectories, IG-Search derives its signals from the policy's own generation probabilities, requiring no intermediate annotations beyond standard question-answer pairs. Experiments on seven single-hop and multi-hop QA benchmarks demonstrate that IG-Search achieves an average EM of 0.430 with Qwen2.5-3B, outperforming the strongest trajectory-level baseline (MR-Search) by 1.6 points and the step-level method GiGPO by 0.9 points on average across benchmarks, with particularly pronounced gains on multi-hop reasoning tasks. Despite introducing a dense step-level signal, IG-Search adds only ~6.4% to per-step training wall-clock time over the trajectory-level baseline and leaves inference latency unchanged, while still providing a meaningful gradient signal even when every sampled trajectory answers incorrectly.

DDA-Net: Accurate TDD Channel Estimation via Deep Unfolding the Doppler-Delay-Angle Representation of Channel Signals

In TDD massive MIMO systems, channel estimation under sparse frequency-hopping pilots is challenging: each snapshot captures only one narrow pilot block that hops across frequency, with tens of milliseconds between adjacent snapshots. Finite-window leakage and off-grid effects weaken the ideal Doppler-delay-angle (DDA) sparsity, limiting both classical sparse recovery and purely data-driven approaches lacking an explicit structured transform-domain model. We propose DDA-Net, a model-driven 3D deep unfolding network for joint multi-snapshot channel state reconstruction. DDA-Net integrates an ADMM-based formulation with a closed-form data-consistency update that avoids tensor inversion, a lightweight Doppler-domain learned prior, and delay oversampling to mitigate basis mismatch. It consistently outperforms strong baselines across three channel settings from 3GPP TR 38.901: UMa-NLOS, UMi-NLOS, and CDL-B. Ablations confirm that window-level 3D processing and explicit Doppler modeling yield target-dependent improvements. With minimal target-domain fine-tuning, the UMa-pretrained model surpasses both its zero-shot version and counterparts trained from scratch with the same number of target-domain samples. The Doppler-domain design proves consistently superior to its time-domain equivalent, with a wider margin after fine-tuning. These results demonstrate that combining exact physical data consistency with a learned DDA-domain prior is an effective and sample-efficient approach to channel state acquisition under sparse frequency-hopping pilots.

OneSearch-V2: The Latent Reasoning Enhanced Self-distillation Generative Search Framework

Generative Retrieval (GR) has emerged as a promising paradigm for modern search systems. Compared to multi-stage cascaded architecture, it offers advantages such as end-to-end joint optimization and high computational efficiency. OneSearch, as a representative industrial-scale deployed generative search framework, has brought significant commercial and operational benefits. However, its inadequate understanding of complex queries, inefficient exploitation of latent user intents, and overfitting to narrow historical preferences have limited its further performance improvement. To address these challenges, we propose OneSearch-V2, a latent reasoning enhanced self-distillation generative search framework. It contains three key innovations: (1) a thought-augmented complex query understanding module, which enables deep query understanding and overcomes the shallow semantic matching limitations of direct inference; (2) a reasoning-internalized self-distillation training pipeline, which uncovers users' potential yet precise e-commerce intentions beyond log-fitting through implicit in-context learning; (3) a behavior preference alignment optimization system, which mitigates reward hacking arising from the single conversion metric, and addresses personal preference via direct user feedback. Extensive offline evaluations demonstrate OneSearch-V2's strong query recognition and user profiling capabilities. Online A/B tests further validate its business effectiveness, yielding +3.98\% item CTR, +2.07\% buyer volume, and +2.11\% order volume. Manual evaluation further confirms gains in search experience quality, with +1.37\% in page good rate and +1.65\% in query-item relevance. More importantly, OneSearch-V2 effectively mitigates common search system issues such as information bubbles and long-tail sparsity, without incurring additional inference costs or serving latency.

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.

CSMCIR: CoT-Enhanced Symmetric Alignment with Memory Bank for Composed Image Retrieval

Composed Image Retrieval (CIR) enables users to search for target images using both a reference image and manipulation text, offering substantial advantages over single-modality retrieval systems. However, existing CIR methods suffer from representation space fragmentation: queries and targets comprise heterogeneous modalities and are processed by distinct encoders, forcing models to bridge misaligned representation spaces only through post-hoc alignment, which fundamentally limits retrieval performance. This architectural asymmetry manifests as three distinct, well-separated clusters in the feature space, directly demonstrating how heterogeneous modalities create fundamentally misaligned representation spaces from initialization. In this work, we propose CSMCIR, a unified representation framework that achieves efficient query-target alignment through three synergistic components. First, we introduce a Multi-level Chain-of-Thought (MCoT) prompting strategy that guides Multimodal Large Language Models to generate discriminative, semantically compatible captions for target images, establishing modal symmetry. Building upon this, we design a symmetric dual-tower architecture where both query and target sides utilize the identical shared-parameter Q-Former for cross-modal encoding, ensuring consistent feature representations and further reducing the alignment gap. Finally, this architectural symmetry enables an entropy-based, temporally dynamic Memory Bank strategy that provides high-quality negative samples while maintaining consistency with the evolving model state. Extensive experiments on four benchmark datasets demonstrate that our CSMCIR achieves state-of-the-art performance with superior training efficiency. Comprehensive ablation studies further validate the effectiveness of each proposed component.

InfoGain-RAG: Boosting Retrieval-Augmented Generation via Document Information Gain-based Reranking and Filtering

Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) has emerged as a promising approach to address key limitations of Large Language Models (LLMs), such as hallucination, outdated knowledge, and lacking reference. However, current RAG frameworks often struggle with identifying whether retrieved documents meaningfully contribute to answer generation. This shortcoming makes it difficult to filter out irrelevant or even misleading content, which notably impacts the final performance. In this paper, we propose Document Information Gain (DIG), a novel metric designed to quantify the contribution of retrieved documents to correct answer generation. DIG measures a document's value by computing the difference of LLM's generation confidence with and without the document augmented. Further, we introduce InfoGain-RAG, a framework that leverages DIG scores to train a specialized reranker, which prioritizes each retrieved document from exact distinguishing and accurate sorting perspectives. This approach can effectively filter out irrelevant documents and select the most valuable ones for better answer generation. Extensive experiments across various models and benchmarks demonstrate that InfoGain-RAG can significantly outperform existing approaches, on both single and multiple retrievers paradigm. Specifically on NaturalQA, it achieves the improvements of 17.9%, 4.5%, 12.5% in exact match accuracy against naive RAG, self-reflective RAG and modern ranking-based RAG respectively, and even an average of 15.3% increment on advanced proprietary model GPT-4o across all datasets. These results demonstrate the feasibility of InfoGain-RAG as it can offer a reliable solution for RAG in multiple applications.

OneSearch: A Preliminary Exploration of the Unified End-to-End Generative Framework for E-commerce Search

Traditional e-commerce search systems employ multi-stage cascading architectures (MCA) that progressively filter items through recall, pre-ranking, and ranking stages. While effective at balancing computational efficiency with business conversion, these systems suffer from fragmented computation and optimization objective collisions across stages, which ultimately limit their performance ceiling. To address these, we propose \textbf{OneSearch}, the first industrial-deployed end-to-end generative framework for e-commerce search. This framework introduces three key innovations: (1) a Keyword-enhanced Hierarchical Quantization Encoding (KHQE) module, to preserve both hierarchical semantics and distinctive item attributes while maintaining strong query-item relevance constraints; (2) a multi-view user behavior sequence injection strategy that constructs behavior-driven user IDs and incorporates both explicit short-term and implicit long-term sequences to model user preferences comprehensively; and (3) a Preference-Aware Reward System (PARS) featuring multi-stage supervised fine-tuning and adaptive reward-weighted ranking to capture fine-grained user preferences. Extensive offline evaluations on large-scale industry datasets demonstrate OneSearch's superior performance for high-quality recall and ranking. The rigorous online A/B tests confirm its ability to enhance relevance in the same exposure position, achieving statistically significant improvements: +1.67% item CTR, +2.40% buyer, and +3.22% order volume. Furthermore, OneSearch reduces operational expenditure by 75.40% and improves Model FLOPs Utilization from 3.26% to 27.32%. The system has been successfully deployed across multiple search scenarios in Kuaishou, serving millions of users, generating tens of millions of PVs daily.

UniECS: Unified Multimodal E-Commerce Search Framework with Gated Cross-modal Fusion

Current e-commerce multimodal retrieval systems face two key limitations: they optimize for specific tasks with fixed modality pairings, and lack comprehensive benchmarks for evaluating unified retrieval approaches. To address these challenges, we introduce UniECS, a unified multimodal e-commerce search framework that handles all retrieval scenarios across image, text, and their combinations. Our work makes three key contributions. First, we propose a flexible architecture with a novel gated multimodal encoder that uses adaptive fusion mechanisms. This encoder integrates different modality representations while handling missing modalities. Second, we develop a comprehensive training strategy to optimize learning. It combines cross-modal alignment loss (CMAL), cohesive local alignment loss (CLAL), intra-modal contrastive loss (IMCL), and adaptive loss weighting. Third, we create M-BEER, a carefully curated multimodal benchmark containing 50K product pairs for e-commerce search evaluation. Extensive experiments demonstrate that UniECS consistently outperforms existing methods across four e-commerce benchmarks with fine-tuning or zero-shot evaluation. On our M-BEER bench, UniECS achieves substantial improvements in cross-modal tasks (up to 28\% gain in R@10 for text-to-image retrieval) while maintaining parameter efficiency (0.2B parameters) compared to larger models like GME-Qwen2VL (2B) and MM-Embed (8B). Furthermore, we deploy UniECS in the e-commerce search platform of Kuaishou Inc. across two search scenarios, achieving notable improvements in Click-Through Rate (+2.74\%) and Revenue (+8.33\%). The comprehensive evaluation demonstrates the effectiveness of our approach in both experimental and real-world settings. Corresponding codes, models and datasets will be made publicly available at https://github.com/qzp2018/UniECS.

A New One-Shot Federated Learning Framework for Medical Imaging Classification with Feature-Guided Rectified Flow and Knowledge Distillation

In multi-center scenarios, One-Shot Federated Learning (OSFL) has attracted increasing attention due to its low communication overhead, requiring only a single round of transmission. However, existing generative model-based OSFL methods suffer from low training efficiency and potential privacy leakage in the healthcare domain. Additionally, achieving convergence within a single round of model aggregation is challenging under non-Independent and Identically Distributed (non-IID) data. To address these challenges, in this paper a modified OSFL framework is proposed, in which a new Feature-Guided Rectified Flow Model (FG-RF) and Dual-Layer Knowledge Distillation (DLKD) aggregation method are developed. FG-RF on the client side accelerates generative modeling in medical imaging scenarios while preserving privacy by synthesizing feature-level images rather than pixel-level images. To handle non-IID distributions, DLKD enables the global student model to simultaneously mimic the output logits and align the intermediate-layer features of client-side teacher models during aggregation. Experimental results on three non-IID medical imaging datasets show that our new framework and method outperform multi-round federated learning approaches, achieving up to 21.73% improvement, and exceeds the baseline FedISCA by an average of 21.75%. Furthermore, our experiments demonstrate that feature-level synthetic images significantly reduce privacy leakage risks compared to pixel-level synthetic images. The code is available at https://github.com/LMIAPC/one-shot-fl-medical.

Accelerating Diffusion Transformer via Increment-Calibrated Caching with Channel-Aware Singular Value Decomposition

Diffusion transformer (DiT) models have achieved remarkable success in image generation, thanks for their exceptional generative capabilities and scalability. Nonetheless, the iterative nature of diffusion models (DMs) results in high computation complexity, posing challenges for deployment. Although existing cache-based acceleration methods try to utilize the inherent temporal similarity to skip redundant computations of DiT, the lack of correction may induce potential quality degradation. In this paper, we propose increment-calibrated caching, a training-free method for DiT acceleration, where the calibration parameters are generated from the pre-trained model itself with low-rank approximation. To deal with the possible correction failure arising from outlier activations, we introduce channel-aware Singular Value Decomposition (SVD), which further strengthens the calibration effect. Experimental results show that our method always achieve better performance than existing naive caching methods with a similar computation resource budget. When compared with 35-step DDIM, our method eliminates more than 45% computation and improves IS by 12 at the cost of less than 0.06 FID increase.

MoDULA: Mixture of Domain-Specific and Universal LoRA for Multi-Task Learning

The growing demand for larger-scale models in the development of \textbf{L}arge \textbf{L}anguage \textbf{M}odels (LLMs) poses challenges for efficient training within limited computational resources. Traditional fine-tuning methods often exhibit instability in multi-task learning and rely heavily on extensive training resources. Here, we propose MoDULA (\textbf{M}ixture \textbf{o}f \textbf{D}omain-Specific and \textbf{U}niversal \textbf{L}oR\textbf{A}), a novel \textbf{P}arameter \textbf{E}fficient \textbf{F}ine-\textbf{T}uning (PEFT) \textbf{M}ixture-\textbf{o}f-\textbf{E}xpert (MoE) paradigm for improved fine-tuning and parameter efficiency in multi-task learning. The paradigm effectively improves the multi-task capability of the model by training universal experts, domain-specific experts, and routers separately. MoDULA-Res is a new method within the MoDULA paradigm, which maintains the model's general capability by connecting universal and task-specific experts through residual connections. The experimental results demonstrate that the overall performance of the MoDULA-Flan and MoDULA-Res methods surpasses that of existing fine-tuning methods on various LLMs. Notably, MoDULA-Res achieves more significant performance improvements in multiple tasks while reducing training costs by over 80\% without losing general capability. Moreover, MoDULA displays flexible pluggability, allowing for the efficient addition of new tasks without retraining existing experts from scratch. This progressive training paradigm circumvents data balancing issues, enhancing training efficiency and model stability. Overall, MoDULA provides a scalable, cost-effective solution for fine-tuning LLMs with enhanced parameter efficiency and generalization capability.

Alternating Subspace Method for Sparse Recovery of Signals

This work has been submitted to the IEEE for possible publication. Copyright may be transferred without notice, after which this version may no longer be accessible. Numerous renowned algorithms for tackling the compressed sensing problem employ an alternating strategy, which typically involves data matching in one module and denoising in another. We present a novel approach, the Alternating Subspace Method (ASM), which integrates the principles of the greedy methods (e.g., the orthogonal matching pursuit type methods) and the splitting methods (e.g., the approximate message passing type methods). Crucially, ASM enhances the splitting method by achieving fidelity in a subspace-restricted fashion. \textcolor{black}{We reveal that such a restriction strategy guarantees global convergence via proximal residual control and establish its local geometric convergence on the LASSO problem.} Numerical experiments on the LASSO, channel estimation, and dynamic compressed sensing problems demonstrate its high convergence rate and its capacity to incorporate different prior distributions. Overall, the proposed method is promising in terms of efficiency, accuracy, and flexibility, and has the potential to be competitive in different sparse recovery applications.
