OmniPresent: Generating Coherent Presentation Suites from Scientific Papers

Transforming static research papers into dynamic media such as posters, slides, and videos is essential for effective dissemination but remains a labor-intensive challenge. Existing automated approaches often treat these formats in isolation and consequently fail to maintain semantic consistency across the entire presentation suite. We address this fragmentation by formalizing the task of unified presentation suite generation and proposing $\textbf{OmniPresent}$ to orchestrate the creation of coherent deliverables. Our framework adopts a renderable HTML representation to enable centralized content planning and a self-correcting verify-and-repair loop that actively resolves conflicts across modalities. We further facilitate scalable research in this domain by releasing $\textbf{OmniPreBench}$, a comprehensive dataset comprising over one thousand papers with paired artifacts, and establishing a rigorous VLM-based evaluation protocol. Empirical results confirm that our method generates high-quality and faithful presentation suites that significantly surpass strong baselines in both accuracy and visual appeal.

An automated method of identifying incorrectly labelled images based on the sequences of loss functions of deep learning networks

Deep learning is widely applied in medical image analysis, but up to 10% of manually labelled images may be incorrect, degrading model performance. This paper proposes an automated method to identify incorrectly labelled medical images by analyzing sequences of loss functions from deep learning classification networks over multiple training epochs. Identified images can be reviewed and relabelled by experts, improving dataset quality and model performance. Two experiments validate the method on a fundus image dataset for referable diabetic retinopathy screening. In the first, 6% (648) of 10,788 gold-standard labels were intentionally flipped. The method identified 75.31% (488) of the flipped samples, with only 4.85% (492) false positives among correctly labelled samples. In the second, reviewing and correcting the 980 identified samples (9.1% of the dataset) and retraining the model improved best accuracy on an independent test set from 95.93% (with 6% label noise) to 96.50% (with 1.5% noise), approaching the ideal 96.57% (with 0% noise). The results demonstrate the method's effectiveness in improving model performance through automated label quality control.

Domain Knowledge Based Temporal-Spatial Graph Convolution Network for ECG Recognition

In light of strides in Arti cial Intelligence (AI) and its wide spread application, challenges persist in the interpretability of AI models, particularly within specialized domains like healthcare, such as electro cardiograph (ECG) recognition. Rather than relying solely on end-to-end convolutional neural networks, this paper introduces a novel approach using a domain knowledge-based graph convolution network for ECG recognition. Key landmarks points of PRQST, vital to ECG interpreta tion, are incorporated as domain knowledge. The double-stream directed graph is employed to model both intra and inter ECG cycles. Speci cally, spatial directed graphs capture the positional relationships among key points, while temporal directed graphs delineate temporal dependencies between adjacent cycles in extended ECG sequences. Experimental re sults on the First Chinese ECG Intelligent Competition dataset, which speci cally classify ECG into nine categories, prove the e cacy of the proposed model. The overall average F1 score is 88.1%, the average F1 score of rare categories is 76.3%, both outperform the state-of-the-art models. The introduction of domain knowledge did enhance the detec tion performance, especially for rare categories.

Human-Agent Collaborative Paper-to-Page Crafting

In the quest for scientific progress, communicating research is as vital as the discovery itself. Yet, researchers are often sidetracked by the manual, repetitive chore of building project webpages to make their dense papers accessible. While automation has tackled static slides and posters, the dynamic, interactive nature of webpages has remained an unaddressed challenge. To bridge this gap, we reframe the problem, arguing that the solution lies not in a single command, but in a collaborative, hierarchical process. We introduce $\textbf{AutoPage}$, a novel multi-agent system that embodies this philosophy. AutoPage deconstructs paper-to-page creation into a coarse-to-fine pipeline from narrative planning to multimodal content generation and interactive rendering. To combat AI hallucination, dedicated "Checker" agents verify each step against the source paper, while optional human checkpoints ensure the final product aligns perfectly with the author's vision, transforming the system from a mere tool into a powerful collaborative assistant. To rigorously validate our approach, we also construct $\textbf{PageBench}$, the first benchmark for this new task. Experiments show AutoPage not only generates high-quality, visually appealing pages but does so with remarkable efficiency in under 15 minutes for less than \$0.1. Code and dataset will be released at $\href{https://mqleet.github.io/AutoPage_ProjectPage/}{Webpage}$.

Paper2Rebuttal: A Multi-Agent Framework for Transparent Author Response Assistance

Writing effective rebuttals is a high-stakes task that demands more than linguistic fluency, as it requires precise alignment between reviewer intent and manuscript details. Current solutions typically treat this as a direct-to-text generation problem, suffering from hallucination, overlooked critiques, and a lack of verifiable grounding. To address these limitations, we introduce $\textbf{RebuttalAgent}$, the first multi-agents framework that reframes rebuttal generation as an evidence-centric planning task. Our system decomposes complex feedback into atomic concerns and dynamically constructs hybrid contexts by synthesizing compressed summaries with high-fidelity text while integrating an autonomous and on-demand external search module to resolve concerns requiring outside literature. By generating an inspectable response plan before drafting, $\textbf{RebuttalAgent}$ ensures that every argument is explicitly anchored in internal or external evidence. We validate our approach on the proposed $\textbf{RebuttalBench}$ and demonstrate that our pipeline outperforms strong baselines in coverage, faithfulness, and strategic coherence, offering a transparent and controllable assistant for the peer review process.

CasaMaestro: Multi-View Panoramas for House-Scale 3D Reconstruction

The rise of home-deployed embodied AI systems is driving a growing need for fast, metric 3D reconstruction of residential spaces to support navigation, interaction, and long-horizon task execution. However, the commonly used pinhole-camera 3D reconstruction pipelines struggle to model large indoor residences efficiently due to their limited field of view, to which achieving full coverage across multiple rooms often requires thousands of images and incurs drift from long chains of incremental alignment. In this work, we present CasaMaestro (Spanish words meaning ``house'' and ``master''), a feedforward model that can take only twenty to fifty sparse multi-view indoor panoramas as input and directly predicts metric depth along with camera poses, allowing fast point-cloud reconstruction of the entire house with full coverage. CasaMaestro is the first model that supports house-scale reconstruction with multi-view panoramas. Experiments show that CasaMaestro can robustly provide high quality results in both real-world and synthetic scenes, which can serve as a strong foundation for acquiring house-scale 3D indoor assets to be applied in close-loop simulation.

Towards Long-Form Spatio-Temporal Video Grounding

In real scenarios, videos can span several minutes or even hours. However, existing research on spatio-temporal video grounding (STVG), given a textual query, mainly focuses on localizing targets in short videos of tens of seconds, typically less than one minute, which limits real-world applications. In this paper, we explore Long-Form STVG (LF-STVG), which aims to locate targets in long-term videos. Compared with short videos, long-term videos contain much longer temporal spans and more irrelevant information, making it difficult for existing STVG methods that process all frames at once. To address this challenge, we propose an AutoRegressive Transformer architecture for LF-STVG, termed ART-STVG. Unlike conventional STVG methods that require the entire video sequence to make predictions at once, ART-STVG treats the video as streaming input and processes frames sequentially, enabling efficient handling of long videos. To model spatio-temporal context, we design spatial and temporal memory banks and apply them to the decoders. Since memories from different moments are not always relevant to the current frame, we introduce simple yet effective memory selection strategies to provide more relevant information to the decoders, significantly improving performance. Furthermore, instead of parallel spatial and temporal localization, we propose a cascaded spatio-temporal design that connects the spatial decoder to the temporal decoder, allowing fine-grained spatial cues to assist complex temporal localization in long videos. Experiments on newly extended LF-STVG datasets show that ART-STVG significantly outperforms state-of-the-art methods, while achieving competitive performance on conventional short-form STVG. Our code is at: https://github.com/HengLan/ART-STVG.

Projective systems and bounds on the length of codes of non-zero defect

We derive bounds on the lengths of linear codes with fixed Singleton defect $s$, working within the framework of projective systems as advocated by Tsfasman and Vlǎduţ. This geometric perspective allows us to unify and extend a range of existing results. We introduce the parameter $m^s(k,q)$, denoting the maximum length of a non-degenerate $[n,k,d]_q$ A$^s$MDS code, and more generally $m^s_t(k,q)$, where the dual code is additionally required to be A$^t$MDS. We also study $κ(s,q)$, the maximum dimension $k$ for which a length-maximal A$^s$MDS code exists. Among our main results, we provide sufficient conditions on $n$ and $k$ under which the dual of an A$^s$MDS code is necessarily A$^s$MDS, addressing a gap in the existing literature. We show that codes of sufficient length must be projective, meet the Griesmer bound, and be dual to an AMDS code. Our bounds subsume or improve several results in the literature. Two conjectures on the non-existence of length-maximal codes of dimension $k\ge 5$ are proposed, supported by computational evidence.

GASE: Gaussian Splatting-Based Automated System for Reconstructing Embodied-Simulation Environments

Training embodied agents in the real world requires skilled operators and expensive hardware. Simulation environments offer a compelling alternative by enabling large-scale, cost-effective data augmentation. Consequently, rapidly constructing high-fidelity simulation scenes with a minimal sim-to-real gap has become a critical objective in robot learning. While reconstruction-based methods provide superior visual quality, current workflows are hindered by inefficient data acquisition and subpar foreground object extraction. We thus propose GASE, a highly automated system for simulation scene construction. GASE leverages multi-view video streams from panoramic camera arrays to enable rapid environment scanning. To ensure high-quality asset generation, our pipeline introduces a camera-pose-based strategy that robustly extracts objects across frames in the 2D domain, followed by high-fidelity scene inpainting. Foreground objects and the static background are then reconstructed independently and seamlessly imported into physics simulators for policy training. Extensive experiments demonstrate that GASE outperforms existing 3D Gaussian-based methods in segmentation accuracy by over 10\% while achieving state-of-the-art inpainting quality. Furthermore, real-robot deployments across manipulation and navigation tasks maintains a performance gap of less than 10\% compared to policies trained purely on real-world data. These results confirm that GASE provides an efficient and highly effective solution for bridging the sim-to-real gap. Code will be released.

SurroundNEXO: Ego-Centric Metric Bridging for Spatially Consistent Geometry in Autonomous Driving

Modern autonomous driving depends on accurate metric 3D understanding for perception, reconstruction, and planning, which in turn requires reliable multi-camera depth prediction. However, the outward-facing nature of vehicle-mounted surround-view camera rigs inherently limits visual overlap across views, challenging the correspondence-based assumptions that underpin conventional multi-view geometry. To bridge this gap, we present SurroundNEXO, named after the Spanish word nexo for a geometric link, a low-overlap multi-camera metric depth framework that grounds cross-view reasoning in ego-centric geometry rather than dense visual correspondences. Instead of directly enforcing early global fusion, SurroundNEXO first assigns image tokens globally comparable ego-frame viewing directions through Ego-Ray Positional Encoding, then uses sparse LiDAR measurements as metric anchors to propagate absolute scale cues, and finally expands feature interaction progressively from view-local modeling to decomposed spatio-temporal reasoning and global integration. This design enables metric-scale depth prediction with improved spatial consistency across weakly overlapping cameras. Across low-overlap autonomous driving benchmarks, including NuScenes, Waymo and DDAD, SurroundNEXO reduces single-view error by 33.2%, improves cross-view consistency by 10.5%, and enhances metric reconstruction quality by 25.6% compared with SOTA methods. It further remains robust under extremely sparse depth prompts and exhibits strong zero-shot generalization to unseen camera layouts.

CUA-Gym: Scaling Verifiable Training Environments and Tasks for Computer-Use Agents

Reinforcement learning with verifiable rewards (RLVR) has driven breakthroughs in domains such as math, tool-use, and software engineering, yet its extension to computer-use agents (CUAs) has been bottlenecked by the scarcity of scalable training data with deterministic rewards. Constructing such data for CUAs requires consistent task instruction, executable environment, and verifiable reward. However, hand-curated benchmarks achieve high reward fidelity but cover few applications and LLM-as-judge-based datasets scale broadly but lack reliable verification. We present CUA-Gym, a scalable pipeline that co-generates task instructions, environment states, and reward functions. Concretely, a Generator agent constructs the initial and golden environment states, and a separate Discriminator agent writes the reward function from the task specification. An orchestrator agent drives the two through iterative rounds upon execution. Generated tuples then pass a final filter combining LLM majority voting and agent rollouts, ensuring quality beyond the per-task adversarial loop. To address the scarcity of training environments, we further synthesize CUA-Gym-Hub, a broad suite of high-fidelity mock web applications grounded in real-world software-use distributions, expanding the scale of CUA RLVR data by magnitude. Using this pipeline, we construct CUA-Gym, a dataset of 32,112 verified RLVR training tuples grounded in 110 environments. Trained with GSPO on CUA-Gym, our CUA-Gym-A3B and CUA-Gym-A17B achieve 62.1% and 72.6% on OSWorld-Verified, outperforming prior open-source CUAs at comparable scales, with performance scaling smoothly in both data volume and environment diversity. The same checkpoints also improve on the held-out WebArena benchmark, indicating transfer beyond the training environments. We will open-source the full synthesis pipeline, dataset, CUA-Gym-Hub environments, and models.

High Mach number limit of the compressible Navier--Stokes equations in critical Besov spaces

We investigate the high Mach number limit for the scaled compressible Navier--Stokes system in the critical Besov framework. In the scaled momentum equation, the pressure force is represented by the term $\varepsilon^2\nabla a^\varepsilon$, where $\varepsilon$ is the inverse Mach number; as $\varepsilon\to0$, the formal limiting system is the compressible pressureless Navier--Stokes system. The analysis is complicated by the absence of density dissipation in the limiting model and by the highest-order coupling created by the viscous terms. For $d\geq2$, we prove the global well-posedness of the scaled system for small initial data and obtain estimates that are uniform with respect to $\varepsilon$. A crucial ingredient is a parameter-dependent lower-order estimate for $\varepsilon a^\varepsilon$, which compensates for the purely transport nature of the density equation and allows the uniform bounds to be closed. Based on these estimates, we justify the high Mach number limit and recover a global strong solution to the pressureless Navier--Stokes system. For $d\geq3$, we further derive quantitative error estimates between the scaled solutions and the pressureless limiting solution. More precisely, on each fixed finite time interval, if the initial discrepancy is of order $\mathcal{O}(\varepsilon)$, then the corresponding lower-order critical Besov error satisfies the same rate, which yields a quantitative justification of the pressureless limit.

YouZhi: Towards High-Concurrency Financial LLMs via Adaptive GQA-to-MLA Transition

Large language models (LLMs) drive significant financial innovations, yet their high-concurrency deployment is severely bottlenecked by KV cache memory overhead, which inflates infrastructure costs and throttles scalability. To address this, we propose YouZhi-LLM, a highly efficient financial LLM empowered by a comprehensive structural transition and training pipeline natively built on the Huawei Ascend ecosystem. At its algorithmic core, YouZhi-LLM features a layer-adaptive GQA-to-MLA transition framework that dynamically assigns per-layer FreqFold sizes, maximizing KV-cache compression while minimizing perplexity degradation. To recover representation capacity and inject domain expertise, the Ascend-based training pipeline seamlessly integrates generalized knowledge distillation with financial-specific supervised fine-tuning. Evaluations demonstrate the superiority of this systematic approach, with the adaptive transition reducing perplexity degradation by up to 35% over uniform baselines. Crucially, when evaluated on Ascend NPUs via vLLM-Ascend, the massive KV-cache reduction translates directly into deployment efficiency. Compared to their respective base models, YouZhi-7B yields a 12.3% improvement in average financial benchmark score alongside a 2.69$\times$ increase in maximum concurrency; similarly, YouZhi-14B achieves a 7.0% accuracy gain and a 2.43$\times$ concurrency boost, establishing a new paradigm for cost-effective, high-throughput financial inference.

AAD-1: Asymmetric Adversarial Distillation for One-Step Autoregressive Video Generation

We present AAD-1, an Asymmetric Adversarial Distillation framework for One-step autoregressive image-to-video generation. State-of-the-art methods adopt adversarial distillation but suffer from motion collapse and training instability, resulting in static videos. AAD-1 addresses these challenges through two key designs in architecture and training strategy. Our key architectural insight is to break the symmetry between generator and discriminator. While the generator remains causal to preserve autoregressive sampling capability, the discriminator attends bidirectionally over the full spatiotemporal context and produces a single holistic realism score for the entire video sequence. This asymmetric design enables the discriminator to effectively detect global temporal failures and long-range drift that cause motion collapse in autoregressive generation. To stabilize training, we introduce a phased strategy that first uses distribution matching to bootstrap a stable one-step generator, providing a warm-up phase that brings the student distribution closer to the teacher before adversarial distillation begins. Extensive experiments on VBench demonstrate that AAD-1 achieves state-of-the-art performance in one-step autoregressive video generation.

Stellar Age Compression Reshapes Interpretations of the Milky Way Thick-Disk Formation History

The formation timescale of the Milky Way thick disk is one of the central debates in Galactic archaeology. The age-metallicity relation (AMR), formation timescale, and chemical evolution gradients are frequently used to infer a rapid assembly, short-timescale enrichment, and bursty formation history of the thick disk. However, stellar ages are not directly observable, introducing the potential risk that inferred ages may harbor a systematic compression tied to observational quality. In this paper, we use the same stellar sample and identical physical covariate matching conditions, but two independent age scales--spectroscopic inferred ages (astroNN) and asteroseismic ages (APOKASC-3)--to compare the observable signatures of the thick-disk formation history. We find that several key observables previously supporting a rapid thick-disk formation are systematically weakened under seismic anchoring: the AMR slope flattens from -3.29 to -1.86 Gyr dex-1 (Delta a = +1.43), the formation timescale widens from 3.04 to 3.55 Gyr, and the peak formation age shifts from 9.1 to 6.0 Gyr. Through transport inversion experiments, we further show that additive noise can only broaden the age distribution and cannot reproduce the above pattern, whereas a compressive transport map (lambda < 1) simultaneously reproduces a narrower age distribution, a steeper AMR, and rapid-formation-like observables. This result indicates that the compression transformation itself is sufficient to generate rapid-formation-friendly observables without requiring an intrinsically bursty formation history. Our findings reveal that statistical interpretations of the Milky Way formation history may depend sensitively on the stellar age definition itself.

Silent Collapse in Recursive Learning Systems

Recursive learning -- where models are trained on data generated by previous versions of themselves -- is increasingly common in large language models, autonomous agents, and self-supervised systems. However, standard performance metrics (loss, perplexity, accuracy) often fail to detect internal degradation before it becomes irreversible. Here we identify a phenomenon we call silent collapse: under broad recursive conditions, model internal distributions -- predictive entropy, representational diversity, and tail coverage -- progressively contract even as conventional metrics appear stable or improving. We discover that silent collapse is not abrupt. Its onset is reliably preceded by three trajectory-level precursors: (1) contraction of anchor entropy, (2) freezing of representation drift, and (3) erosion of tail coverage. These signals manifest multiple generations before any degradation in standard validation metrics, enabling early warning. Based on these precursors, we propose the MTR (Monitor--Trust--Regulator) framework, a lightweight metacognitive loop that monitors trajectory statistics, estimates a slow-timescale trust variable, and adaptively modulates the effective learning intensity. MTR provides early warning and actively prevents silent collapse without requiring access to pristine real data -- a critical advantage when original data is unavailable, contaminated, or private.

Structured Labeling Enables Faster Vision-Language Models for End-to-End Autonomous Driving

Vision-Language Models (VLMs) offer a promising approach to end-to-end autonomous driving due to their human-like reasoning capabilities. However, troublesome gaps remains between current VLMs and real-world autonomous driving applications. One major limitation is that existing datasets with loosely formatted language descriptions are not machine-friendly and may introduce redundancy. Additionally, high computational cost and massive scale of VLMs hinder the inference speed and real-world deployment. To bridge the gap, this paper introduces a structured and concise benchmark dataset, NuScenes-S, which is derived from the NuScenes dataset and contains machine-friendly structured representations. Moreover, we present FastDrive, a compact VLM baseline with 0.9B parameters. In contrast to existing VLMs with over 7B parameters and unstructured language processing(e.g., LLaVA-1.5), FastDrive understands structured and concise descriptions and generates machine-friendly driving decisions with high efficiency. Extensive experiments show that FastDrive achieves competitive performance on structured dataset, with approximately 20% accuracy improvement on decision-making tasks, while surpassing massive parameter baseline in inference speed with over 10x speedup. Additionally, ablation studies further focus on the impact of scene annotations (e.g., weather, time of day) on decision-making tasks, demonstrating their importance on decision-making tasks in autonomous driving.

TrainMover: An Interruption-Resilient Runtime for ML Training

Large-scale ML training jobs are frequently interrupted by hardware and software anomalies, failures, and management events. Existing solutions like checkpoint-restart or runtime reconfiguration suffer from long downtimes and degraded performance. We present TrainMover, a resilient LLM training runtime that leverages elastic and standby machines to handle interruptions with minimal downtime and zero memory overhead. To achieve these goals, TrainMover introduces three key techniques: two-phase, delta-based communication group setup; communication-free sandboxed warmup; and general standby design that enables failure recovery from any role. Our evaluation shows that TrainMover consistently achieves around 20 seconds of downtime when handling various interruptions at the 1024-GPU scale. TrainMover is projected to reduce wasted GPU hours by 55% compared to the best alternative, saving 1.4 million GPU-hours per week at the 64K-GPU scale.
