Boogu-Image-0.1: Boosting Open Agentic Multimodal Generation via Understanding under a Minimal Budget

We introduce Boogu-Image-0.1, an open-source unified multimodal understanding and generation model family, comprising Base, Turbo, Edit, and Edit-Turbo variants. It delivers competitive performance in high-quality text-to-image generation, fast inference, instruction-based editing, and bilingual (Chinese-English) text rendering. Closed-source multimodal systems like Nano-Banana-Pro and GPT-Image-2 achieve strong performance through system-level integration rather than a single model, yet their internal practices remain largely undisclosed. In this work, we demonstrate that strengthening the understanding capability of the system, through a stronger multimodal encoder, agentic prompt rewriting, and related techniques, together with improvements in data quality, training pipelines, and agentic inference-time scaling, can substantially enhance generation and editing performance even under highly constrained compute budgets. Comprehensive evaluations show that Boogu-Image-0.1 consistently matches or surpasses other open-source models across standard benchmarks, and achieves results approaching leading closed-source systems. Notably, this is accomplished with only 208.62 million unique images. The base model's theoretical training cost is only approximately \$400K. We share practical discussions that we believe are valuable to the broader research community, and release weights, code, and recipes under Apache 2.0 to advance the open ecosystem for unified multimodal understanding and generation.

A Lightweight Multi-Agent Framework for Automated Concrete Barrier Design

The design of reinforced concrete (RC) highway barriers is a safety-critical engineering task that requires strict compliance with regulatory provisions such as the AASHTO LRFD Bridge Design Specifications. Current engineering practice relies largely on manual, iterative, and experience-driven procedures to satisfy complex material, geometric, and mechanical constraints. Although standalone large language models (LLMs) show strong capabilities in knowledge representation and text generation, their direct use in structural engineering design is limited by hallucination, numerical reasoning errors, and insufficient integration with physics-based analysis. To address these limitations, this study proposes a "generation-validation-modification" closed-loop framework for automated RC barrier design based on the multi-agent orchestration capability of AutoGen. The framework integrates specialized agents for parameter generation, mechanics-based calculation, target-interval evaluation, deviation diagnosis, and rule-based design modification. The multi-agent framework (MAF) was evaluated on three barrier testing levels (TL-3, TL-4, and TL-5) using sixty RC barrier designs with different geometric configurations. Three DeepSeek models with different parameter scales, DS-8B, DS-32B, and DS-671B, were investigated. All designs were evaluated according to Section 13 of the AASHTO LRFD Bridge Design Specifications, 10th Edition (2024). Results show that MAF-DS-8B achieves a target-interval compliance rate of 98.3%, while the best-performing standalone LLM, DS-32B, achieves 11.7%. These results demonstrate that multi-agent architectures can improve the reliability, interpretability, and accessibility of AI-assisted engineering design for practical applications.

pFedSAM: Personalized Federated Learning of Segment Anything Model for Medical Image Segmentation

Medical image segmentation is crucial for computer-aided diagnosis, yet privacy constraints hinder data sharing across institutions. Federated learning addresses this limitation, but existing approaches often rely on lightweight architectures that struggle with complex, heterogeneous data. Recently, the Segment Anything Model (SAM) has shown outstanding segmentation capabilities; however, its massive encoder poses significant challenges in federated settings. In this work, we present the first personalized federated SAM framework tailored for heterogeneous data scenarios in medical image segmentation. Our framework integrates two key innovations: (1) a personalized strategy that aggregates only the global parameters to capture cross-client commonalities while retaining the designed L-MoE (Localized Mixture-of-Experts) component to preserve domain-specific features; and (2) a decoupled global-local fine-tuning mechanism that leverages a teacher-student paradigm via knowledge distillation to bridge the gap between the global shared model and the personalized local models, thereby mitigating overgeneralization. Extensive experiments on two public datasets validate that our approach significantly improves segmentation performance, achieves robust cross-domain adaptation, and reduces communication overhead.
