Accurate prediction of ionic conductivity in electrolyte systems is crucial for advancing numerous scientific and technological applications. While significant progress has been made, current research faces two fundamental challenges: (1) the lack of high-quality standardized benchmarks, and (2) inadequate modeling of geometric structure and intermolecular interactions in mixture systems. To address these limitations, we first reorganize and enhance the CALiSol and DiffMix electrolyte datasets by incorporating geometric graph representations of molecules. We then propose GeoMix, a novel geometry-aware framework that preserves Set-SE(3) equivariance--an essential but challenging property for mixture systems. At the heart of GeoMix lies the Geometric Interaction Network (GIN), an equivariant module specifically designed for intermolecular geometric message passing. Comprehensive experiments demonstrate that GeoMix consistently outperforms diverse baselines (including MLPs, GNNs, and geometric GNNs) across both datasets, validating the importance of cross-molecular geometric interactions and equivariant message passing for accurate property prediction. This work not only establishes new benchmarks for electrolyte research but also provides a general geometric learning framework that advances modeling of mixture systems in energy materials, pharmaceutical development, and beyond.

Existing benchmarks for evaluating the security risks and capabilities (e.g., vulnerability detection) of code-generating large language models (LLMs) face several key limitations: (1) limited coverage of risk and capabilities; (2) reliance on static evaluation metrics such as LLM judgments or rule-based detection, which lack the precision of dynamic analysis; and (3) a trade-off between data quality and benchmark scale. To address these challenges, we introduce a general and scalable benchmark construction framework that begins with manually validated, highquality seed examples and expands them via targeted mutations. Our approach provides a comprehensive suite of artifacts so the benchmark can support comprehensive risk assessment and security capability evaluation using dynamic metrics. By combining expert insights with automated generation, we strike a balance between manual effort, data quality, and benchmark scale. Applying this framework to Python, C/C++, and Java, we build SECODEPLT, a dataset of more than 5.9k samples spanning 44 CWE-based risk categories and three security capabilities. Compared with state-of-the-art benchmarks, SECODEPLT offers broader coverage, higher data fidelity, and substantially greater scale. We use SECODEPLT to evaluate leading code LLMs and agents, revealing their strengths and weaknesses in both generating secure code and identifying or fixing vulnerabilities.2

In dance performances, choreographers define the visual expression of movement, while cinematographers shape its final presentation through camera work. Consequently, the synthesis of camera movements informed by both music and dance has garnered increasing research interest. While recent advancements have led to notable progress in this area, existing methods predominantly operate in an offline manner--that is, they require access to the entire dance sequence before generating corresponding camera motions. This constraint renders them impractical for real-time applications, particularly in live stage performances, where immediate responsiveness is essential. To address this limitation, we introduce a more practical yet challenging task: online camera movement synthesis, in which camera trajectories must be generated using only the current and preceding segments of dance and music. In this paper, we propose TemMEGA (Temporal Masked Generative Modeling), a unified framework capable of handling both online and offline camera movement generation. TemMEGA consists of three key components.

The remarkable progress in text-to-video diffusion models enables the generation of photorealistic videos, although the content of these generated videos often includes unnatural movement or deformation, reverse playback, and motionless scenes. Recently, an alignment problem has attracted huge attention, where we steer the output of diffusion models based on some measure of the content's goodness. Because there is a large room for improvement of perceptual quality along the frame direction, we should address which metrics we should optimize and how we can optimize them in the video generation. In this paper, we propose diffusion latent beam search with lookahead estimator, which can select a better diffusion latent to maximize a given alignment reward at inference time. We then point out that improving perceptual video quality with respect to alignment to prompts requires reward calibration by weighting existing metrics. This is because when humans or vision language models evaluate outputs, many previous metrics to quantify the naturalness of video do not always correlate with the evaluation. We demonstrate that our method improves the perceptual quality evaluated on the calibrated reward, VLMs, and human assessment, without model parameter update, and outputs the best generation compared to greedy search and best-of-N sampling under much more efficient computational cost.

Depth-from-Focus (DFF) enables precise depth estimation by analyzing focus cues across a stack of images captured at varying focal lengths. While recent learning-based approaches have advanced this field, they often struggle in complex scenes with fine textures or abrupt depth changes, where focus cues may become ambiguous or misleading. We present DualFocus, a novel DFF framework that leverages the focal stack's unique gradient patterns induced by focus variation, jointly modeling focus changes over spatial and focal dimensions. Our approach introduces a variational formulation with dual constraints tailored to DFF: spatial constraints exploit gradient pattern changes across focus levels to distinguish true depth edges from texture artifacts, while focal constraints enforce unimodal, monotonic focus probabilities aligned with physical focus behavior. These inductive biases improve robustness and accuracy in challenging regions. Comprehensive experiments on four public datasets demonstrate that DualFocus consistently outperforms state-of-the-art methods in both depth accuracy and perceptual quality.

Millions of people can get discounts on their bills - here's how Water, phone and broadband companies are willing to give millions of people discounted deals on their bills. Social tariffs - sometimes known as essential, or basic, tariffs - can reduce bills for people on various benefits. Generally, you only need to ask your supplier to get on one. Importantly, they are not price promotions designed to attract customers, but lower bills for the same service for those who would otherwise struggle to pay. Most people who have fallen behind on paying their bills are unaware this help is available, a major report has suggested.

Cases of fraud in the UK have surged with criminals using AI to manipulate people and even marrying victims of romance scams to steal more money. More than four million cases in which money was lost were reported last year - the equivalent of nearly eight on average every minute, according to new figures. The total has increased by more than one million in two years, with almost £1.3bn The enormous scale of the problem could only be tackled if tech companies stepped up monitoring and security of their platforms, the banking trade body said. Banks said fraud posed a national security threat given the impact on victims and the huge sums stolen by organised criminals.

Learning from multi-agent expert demonstrations, known as Multi-Agent Imitation Learning (MAIL), provides a promising approach to sequential decision-making. However, existing MAIL methods including Behavior Cloning (BC) and Adversarial Imitation Learning (AIL) face significant challenges: BC suffers from the compounding error issue, while the very nature of adversarial optimization makes AIL prone to instability. In this work, we propose Multi-Agent imitation by learning and sampling from FactorIzed Soft Q-function (MAFIS), a novel method that addresses these limitations for both online and offline MAIL settings. Built upon the single-agent IQ-Learn framework, MAFIS introduces the value decomposition network to factorize the imitation objective at agent level, thus enabling scalable training for multi-agent systems. Moreover, we observe that the soft Q-function implicitly defines the optimal policy as an energy-based model, from which we can sample actions via stochastic gradient Langevin dynamics. This allows us to estimate the gradient of the factorized optimization objective for continuous control tasks, avoiding the adversarial optimization between the soft Q-function and the policy required by prior work. By doing so, we obtain a tractable and non-adversarial objective for both discrete and continuous multi-agent control. Experiments on common benchmarks including the discrete control tasks StarCraft Multi-Agent Challenge v2 (SMACv2), Gold Miner, and Multi Particle Environments (MPE), as well as the continuous control task Multi-Agent MuJoCo (MaMuJoCo), demonstrate that MAFIS achieves superior performance compared with baselines. Our code is available at https://github.com/LAMDA-RL/MAFIS.

We study whether and how the choice of optimization algorithm can impact group fairness in deep neural networks. Through stochastic differential equation analysis of optimization dynamics in an analytically tractable setup, we demonstrate that the choice of optimization algorithm indeed influences fairness outcomes, particularly under severe imbalance. Furthermore, we show that when comparing two categories of optimizers, adaptive methods and stochastic methods, RMSProp (from the adaptive category) has a higher likelihood of converging to fairer minima than SGD (from the stochastic category). Building on this insight, we derive two new theoretical guarantees showing that, under appropriate conditions, RMSProp exhibits fairer parameter updates and improved fairness in a single optimization step compared to SGD.
