Hypergraph neural networks (HGNNs) have demonstrated remarkable success in learning from such higher-order relational data. While such higher-order modeling enhances relational reasoning, the effectiveness of hypergraph learning remains bottlenecked by two persistent challenges: the scarcity of labeled data inherent to complex systems, and the vulnerability to structural noise in real-world interaction patterns. Traditional data augmentation methods, though successful in Euclidean and graph-structured domains, struggle to preserve the intricate balance between node features and hyperedge semantics, often disrupting the very group-wise interactions that define hypergraph value. To bridge this gap, we present HyperMixup, a hypergraph-aware augmentation framework that preserves higher-order interaction patterns through structure-guided feature mixing. Specifically, HyperMixup contains three critical components: 1) Structure-aware node pairing guided by joint feature-hyperedge similarity metrics, 2) Context-enhanced hierarchical mixing that preserves hyperedge semantics through dual-level feature fusion, and 3) Adaptive topology reconstruction mechanisms that maintain hypergraph consistency while enabling controlled diversity expansion. Theoretically, we establish that our method induces hypergraph-specific regularization effects through gradient alignment with hyperedge covariance structures, while providing robustness guarantees against combined node-hyperedge perturbations. Comprehensive experiments across diverse hypergraph learning tasks demonstrate consistent performance improvements over state-of-the-art baselines, with particular effectiveness in low-label regimes. The proposed framework advances hypergraph representation learning by unifying data augmentation with higher-order topological constraints, offering both practical utility and theoretical insights for relational machine learning.

Discrete diffusion models have recently gained significant prominence in applications involving natural language and graph data. A key factor influencing their effectiveness is the efficiency of discretized samplers. Among these, $\tau$-leaping samplers have become particularly popular due to their theoretical and empirical success. However, existing theoretical analyses of $\tau$-leaping often rely on somewhat restrictive and difficult-to-verify regularity assumptions, and their convergence bounds contain quadratic dependence on the vocabulary size. In this work, we introduce a new analytical approach for discrete diffusion models that removes the need for such assumptions. For the standard $\tau$-leaping method, we establish convergence guarantees in KL divergence that scale linearly with vocabulary size, improving upon prior results with quadratic dependence. Our approach is also more broadly applicable: it provides the first convergence guarantees for other widely used samplers, including the Euler method and Tweedie $\tau$-leaping. Central to our approach is a novel technique based on differential inequalities, offering a more flexible alternative to the traditional Girsanov change-of-measure methods. This technique may also be of independent interest for the analysis of other stochastic processes.

Visual grounding in 3D is the key for embodied agents to localize language-referred objects in open-world environments. However, existing benchmarks are limited to indoor focus, single-platform constraints, and small scale. We introduce 3EED, a multi-platform, multi-modal 3D grounding benchmark featuring RGB and LiDAR data from vehicle, drone, and quadruped platforms. We provide over 128,000 objects and 22,000 validated referring expressions across diverse outdoor scenes -- 10x larger than existing datasets. We develop a scalable annotation pipeline combining vision-language model prompting with human verification to ensure high-quality spatial grounding. To support cross-platform learning, we propose platform-aware normalization and cross-modal alignment techniques, and establish benchmark protocols for in-domain and cross-platform evaluations. Our findings reveal significant performance gaps, highlighting the challenges and opportunities of generalizable 3D grounding. The 3EED dataset and benchmark toolkit are released to advance future research in language-driven 3D embodied perception.

Large language models (LLMs) have demonstrated remarkable proficiency in mainstream academic disciplines such as mathematics, physics, and computer science. However, human knowledge encompasses over 200 specialized disciplines, far exceeding the scope of existing benchmarks. The capabilities of LLMs in many of these specialized fields-particularly in light industry, agriculture, and service-oriented disciplines-remain inadequately evaluated. To address this gap, we present SuperGPQA, a comprehensive benchmark that evaluates graduate-level knowledge and reasoning capabilities across 285 disciplines. Our benchmark employs a novel Human-LLM collaborative filtering mechanism to eliminate trivial or ambiguous questions through iterative refinement based on both LLM responses and expert feedback. Our experimental results reveal significant room for improvement in the performance of current state-of-the-art LLMs across diverse knowledge domains (e.g., the reasoning-focused model Gemini-2.5-Pro

AI-driven discovery can greatly reduce design time and enhance new therapeutics' effectiveness. Models using simulators explore broad design spaces but risk violating implicit constraints due to a lack of experimental priors. For example, in a new analysis across diverse models on the GuacaMol benchmark using supervised classifiers, over 60\% of molecules proposed had a high probability of being mutagenic. In this work, we introduce Medex, a dataset of priors for design problems extracted from literature describing compounds used in lab settings. It is constructed with LLM pipelines for discovering therapeutic entities in relevant paragraphs and summarizing information in concise fair-use facts. Medex consists of 32.3 million pairs of natural language facts, and appropriate entity representations (i.e.

Diffusion transformers (DiTs) struggle to generate images at resolutions higher than their training resolutions. The primary obstacle is that the explicit positional encodings (PE), such as RoPE, need extrapolating to unseen positions which degrades performance when the inference resolution differs from training. In this paper, We propose a Length-Extrapolatable Diffusion Transformer (LEDiT) to overcome this limitation. LEDiT needs no explicit PEs, thereby avoiding PE extrapolation. The key innovation of LEDiT lies in the use of causal attention. We demonstrate that causal attention can implicitly encode global positional information and show that such information facilitates extrapolation. We further introduce a locality enhancement module, which captures fine-grained local information to complement the global coarse-grained position information encoded by causal attention. Experimental results on both conditional and text-to-image generation tasks demonstrate that LEDiT supports up to 4 resolution scaling (e.g., from 256$\times$256 to 512$\times$512), achieving better image quality compared to the state-of-the-art length extrapolation methods. We believe that LEDiT marks a departure from the standard RoPE-based methods and offers a promising insight into length extrapolation.

From killing your chatbots to optimizing your prompts, here are the best ways to go full AI native and conquer the new world. Sam Liang is appalled as I confess my technique for recording an interview: running the Voice Memos app on an iPhone and transferring the transcript manually to a Google Doc. The CEO of Otter, a transcription service for analyzing meetings, looks at me as if I tried to call into our video chat using a rotary phone. He believes, naturally, that I should switch to Otter. Time-saving productivity tools like next-gen note-takers, task-based agents, and chatty inbox assistants are exploding in popularity as they invade every nook and cranny of our digital lives.

The Multi-modal Large Language Model (MLLM) based Referring Expression Generation (REG) task has gained increasing popularity, which aims to generate an unambiguous text description that applies to exactly one object or region in the image by leveraging foundation models. We empirically found that there exists a potential trade-off between the detailedness and the correctness of the descriptions for the referring objects. On the one hand, generating sentences with more details is usually required in order to provide more precise object descriptions. On the other hand, complicated sentences could easily increase the probability of hallucinations. To address this issue, we propose a training-free framework, named ``unleash-then-eliminate'', which first elicits the latent information in the intermediate layers, and then adopts a cycle-consistency-based decoding method to alleviate the production of hallucinations. Furthermore, to reduce the computational load of cycle-consistency-based decoding, we devise a Probing-based Importance Estimation method to statistically estimate the importance weights of intermediate layers within a subset. These importance weights are then incorporated into the decoding process over the entire dataset, intervening in the next token prediction from intermediate layers.Extensive experiments conducted on the RefCOCOg and PHD benchmarks show that our proposed framework could outperform existing methods on both semantic and hallucination-related metrics.

The availability of large-scale multimodal datasets and advancements in diffusion models have significantly accelerated progress in 4D content generation. Most prior approaches rely on multiple images or video diffusion models, utilizing score distillation sampling for optimization or generating pseudo novel views for direct supervision. However, these methods are hindered by slow optimization speeds and multi-view inconsistency issues. Spatial and temporal consistency in 4D geometry has been extensively explored respectively in 3D-aware diffusion models and traditional monocular video diffusion models. Building on this foundation, we propose a strategy to migrate the temporal consistency in video diffusion models to the spatial-temporal consistency required for 4D generation.

The Lion optimizer has been a promising competitor with the AdamW for training large AI models, with advantages in memory, computation, and sample efficiency. In this paper, we introduce Distributed Lion, an innovative adaptation of Lion for distributed training environments. Leveraging the sign operator in Lion, our Distributed Lion only requires to communicate binary or lower-precision vectorsbetween workers to the center server, significantly reducing the communication cost. Our theoretical analysis confirms Distributed Lion's convergence properties. Empirical results demonstrate its robustness across a range of tasks, worker counts, and batch sizes, on both vision and language problems. Notably, Distributed Lion attains comparable performance to standard Lion or AdamW optimizers applied on aggregated gradients, but with significantly reduced communication bandwidth. This feature is particularly advantageous for training large models. In addition, we also demonstrate that \mavolion{} presents a more favorable performance-bandwidth balance compared to existing efficient distributed methods such as deep gradient compression and ternary gradients.
