This paper introduces INFANTAGENT-NEXT, a generalist agent capable of interacting with computers in a multimodal manner, encompassing text, images, audio, and video. Unlike existing approaches that either build intricate workflows around a single large model or only provide workflow modularity, our agent integrates tool-based and pure vision agents within a highly modular architecture, enabling different models to collaboratively solve decoupled tasks in a step-by-step manner. Our generality is demonstrated by our ability to evaluate not only pure vision-based real-world benchmarks (i.e., OSWorld), but also more general or tool-intensive benchmarks (e.g., GAIA and SWE-Bench). Specifically, we achieve a 7.27%accuracy gain over Claude-Computer-Use on OSWorld.

This paper introduces VimoRAG, a novel video-based retrieval-augmented motion generation framework for motion large language models (LLMs).

Existing acceleration techniques for video diffusion models often rely on uniform heuristics or time-embedding variants to skip timesteps and reuse cached features. These approaches typically require extensive calibration with curated prompts and risk inconsistent outputs due to prompt-specific overfitting. In this paper, we introduce a novel and robust discovery: a unified magnitude law observed across different models and prompts.

Generating music with coherent structure, harmonious instrumental and vocal elements remains a significant challenge in song generation. Existing language models and diffusion-based methods often struggle to balance global coherence with local fidelity, resulting in outputs that lack musicality or suffer from incoherent progression and mismatched lyrics. This paper introduces SongBloom1, a novel framework for full-length song generation that leverages an interleaved paradigm of autoregressive sketching and diffusion-based refinement. SongBloom employs an autoregressive diffusion model that combines the high fidelity of diffusion models with the scalability of language models. Specifically, it gradually extends a musical sketch from short to long and refines the details from coarse to fine-grained. The interleaved generation paradigm effectively integrates prior semantic and acoustic context to guide the generation process. Experimental results demonstrate that SongBloom outperforms existing methods across both subjective and objective metrics and achieves performance comparable to the state-of-the-art commercial music generation platforms.

Large language models (LLMs) show remarkable promise for democratizing automated reasoning by generating formal specifications. However, a fundamental tension exists: LLMs are probabilistic, while formal verification demands deterministic guarantees.

Large language models are increasingly customized through fine-tuning and other adaptations, creating challenges in enforcing licensing terms and managing downstream impacts such as protecting intellectual property or identifying vulnerabilities. We address this challenge by developing a framework for testing model provenance. Our approach is based on the key observation that real-world model derivations preserve significant similarities in model outputs that can be detected through statistical analysis. Using only black-box access to models, we employ multiple hypothesis testing to compare model similarities against a baseline established by unrelated models. On two comprehensive real-world benchmarks spanning models from 30M to 4B parameters and comprising over 600 models, our tester achieves 90 95% precision and 80 90% recall in identifying derived models. These results demonstrate the viability of systematic provenance verification in production environments even when only API access is available.

A transformer is merely a stack of learned datatodata maps--yet those maps can hide rich algorithms. We train a linear, attention-only transformer on millions of masked-block completion tasks: each prompt is a masked low-rank matrix whose missing block may be (i) a scalar prediction target or (ii) an unseen kernel slice for Nyström extrapolation. The model sees only input--output pairs and a mean-squared loss; it is given no normal equations, no handcrafted iterations, and no hint that the tasks are related. Surprisingly, after training, algebraic unrolling reveals the same parameter-free update rule across all three resource regimes (full visibility, bandwidth-limited heads, rank-limited attention). We prove that this rule achieves second-order convergence on full-batch problems, cuts distributed iteration complexity, and remains accurate with compute-limited attention. Thus, a transformer trained solely to patch missing blocks implicitly discovers a unified, resource-adaptive iterative solver spanning prediction, estimation, and Nyström extrapolationhighlighting a powerful capability of in-context learning.

While vision language models (VLMs) excel in 2D semantic visual understanding, their ability to quantitatively reason about 3D spatial relationships remains underexplored due to the deficiency of spatial representation ability of 2D images. In this paper, we analyze the problem hindering VLMs' spatial understanding abilities and propose SD-VLM, a novel framework that significantly enhances fundamental spatial perception abilities of VLMs through two key contributions: (1) propose Massive Spatial Measuring and Understanding (MSMU) dataset with precise spatial annotations, and (2) introduce a simple depth positional encoding method strengthening VLMs' spatial awareness. MSMU dataset includes massive quantitative spatial tasks with 700KQA pairs, 2.5M physical numerical annotations, and 10K chain-of-thought augmented samples. We have trained SD-VLM, a strong generalist VLM which shows superior quantitative spatial measuring and understanding capability. SD-VLM not only achieves state-of-the-art performance on our proposed MSMU-Bench, but also shows spatial generalization abilities on other spatial understanding benchmarks including Q-Spatial and SpatialRGPTBench. Extensive experiments demonstrate that SD-VLM outperforms GPT-4o and Intern-VL3-78B by 26.91%and 25.56%respectively on MSMU-Bench. Code and models are released at https://github.com/cpystan/SD-VLM.

However, real-world videos typically exist as continu-ously evolving data streams (e.g., dynamic scenes captured by wearable glasses),necessitating models to continually adapt to shifting data distributions and novelscenarios. Considering the prohibitive computational costs of fine-tuning modelson new tasks, usually, a small subset of parameters is updated while the bulkof the model remains frozen. This poses new challenges to existing continuallearning frameworks in the context of large multimodal foundation models, i.e.,catastrophic forgetting and update conflict. While the foundation models strug-gle with parameter-efficient continual learning, the hippocampus in the humanbrain has evolved highly efficient mechanisms for memory formation and con-solidation. Inspired by the rapid Binding and pattern separation mechanisms inthe hippocampus, in this work, we propose Bisecle for video-language continuallearning, where a multi-directional supervision module is used to capture morecross-modal relationships and a contrastive prompt learning scheme is designedto isolate task-specific knowledge to facilitate efficient memory storage. Bindingand separation processes further strengthen the ability of VLMs to retain complexexperiences, enabling robust and efficient continual learning in video understandingtasks. We perform a thorough evaluation of the proposed Bisecle, demonstratingits ability to mitigate forgetting and enhance cross-task generalization on severalVideoQA benchmarks.

Recently, test-time scaling of Large Language Models (LLMs) has emerged as a practical alternative to parameter and data scaling. Reasoning tasks often require large-scale, RLVR-based LLMs, while more economical LLMs can handle simpler tasks. Routing an LLM tailored to suitability (i.e., capability and cost) ensures usability and efficiency. We introduce LLMRec, which routes the most suitable LLM to the user query without pre-inference on the candidate LLM zoo.
