Generating motion-controlled videos--where user-specified actions drive physically plausible scene dynamics under freely chosen viewpoints--demands two capabilities: (1) disentangled motion control, allowing users to separately control the object motion and adjust camera viewpoint; and (2) motion causality, ensuring that user-driven actions trigger coherent reactions from other objects rather than merely displacing pixels. Existing methods fall short on both fronts: they entangle camera and obje...

Reinforcement-Learning-based post-training has recently emerged as a promising paradigm for aligning text-to-image diffusion models with human preferences. In recent studies, increasing the rollout group size yields pronounced performance improvements, indicating substantial room for further alignment gains. However, scaling rollouts on large-scale foundational diffusion models (e.g., FLUX.1-12B) imposes a heavy computational burden. To alleviate this bottleneck, we explore the integration of FP...

Large reasoning models have recently demonstrated strong performance on complex tasks that require long chain-of-thought reasoning, through supervised fine-tuning on large-scale and high-quality datasets. To construct such datasets, existing pipelines generate long reasoning data from more capable Large Language Models (LLMs) and apply manually heuristic or naturalness-based selection methods to filter high-quality samples. Despite the proven effectiveness of naturalness-based data selection, wh...

While traditional tree-based ensemble methods have long dominated tabular tasks, deep neural networks and emerging foundation models have challenged this primacy, yet no consensus exists on a universally superior paradigm. Existing benchmarks typically contain fewer than 100 datasets, raising concerns about evaluation sufficiency and potential selection biases. To address these limitations, we introduce OmniTabBench, the largest tabular benchmark to date, comprising 3030 datasets spanning divers...

As the complexity of modern workloads and hardware increasingly outpaces human research and engineering capacity, existing methods for database performance optimization struggle to keep pace. To address this gap, a new class of techniques, termed AI-Driven Research for Systems (ADRS), uses large language models to automate solution discovery. This approach shifts optimization from manual system design to automated code generation. The key obstacle, however, in applying ADRS is the evaluation pip...

We propose a new frontier: Neural Computers (NCs) -- an emerging machine form that unifies computation, memory, and I/O in a learned runtime state. Unlike conventional computers, which execute explicit programs, agents, which act over external execution environments, and world models, which learn environment dynamics, NCs aim to make the model itself the running computer. Our long-term goal is the Completely Neural Computer (CNC): the mature, general-purpose realization of this emerging machine ...

Most digital videos are stored in 8-bit low dynamic range (LDR) formats, where much of the original high dynamic range (HDR) scene radiance is lost due to saturation and quantization. This loss of highlight and shadow detail precludes mapping accurate luminance to HDR displays and limits meaningful re-exposure in post-production workflows. Although techniques have been proposed to convert LDR images to HDR through dynamic range expansion, they struggle to restore realistic detail in the over- an...

Large language models are increasingly deployed as autonomous agents executing multi-step workflows in real-world software environments. However, existing agent benchmarks suffer from three critical limitations: (1) trajectory-opaque grading that checks only final outputs, (2) underspecified safety and robustness evaluation, and (3) narrow modality coverage and interaction paradigms. We introduce Claw-Eval, an end-to-end evaluation suite addressing all three gaps. It comprises 300 human-verified...

Repository-level issue resolution benchmarks have become a standard testbed for evaluating LLM-based agents, yet success is still predominantly measured by test pass rates. In practice, however, acceptable patches must also comply with project-specific design constraints, such as architectural conventions, error-handling policies, and maintainability requirements, which are rarely encoded in tests and are often documented only implicitly in code review discussions. This paper introduces \textit{...

Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) have advanced unified reasoning over text, images, and videos, but their inference is hindered by the rapid growth of key-value (KV) caches. Each visual input expands into thousands of tokens, causing caches to scale linearly with context length and remain resident in GPU memory throughout decoding, which leads to prohibitive memory overhead and latency even on high-end GPUs. A common solution is to compress caches under a fixed allocated budget at differ...

In this work, we demonstrate that reliable stochastic sampling is a fundamental yet unfulfilled requirement for Large Language Models (LLMs) operating as agents. Agentic systems are frequently required to sample from distributions, often inferred from observed data, a process which needs to be emulated by the LLM. This leads to a distinct failure point: while standard RL agents rely on external sampling mechanisms, LLMs fail to map their internal probability estimates to their stochastic outputs...

Large vision-language models can produce object hallucinations in image descriptions, highlighting the need for effective detection and mitigation strategies. Prior work commonly relies on the model's attention weights on visual tokens as a detection signal. We reveal that coarse-grained attention-based analysis is unreliable due to hidden confounders, specifically token position and object repetition in a description. This leads to Simpson's paradox: the attention trends reverse or disappear wh...

Efficiently solving the Fokker-Planck equation (FPE) is central to analyzing complex parameterized stochastic systems. However, current numerical methods lack parallel computation capabilities across varying conditions, severely limiting comprehensive parameter exploration and transient analysis. This paper introduces a deep learning-based pseudo-analytical probability solution (PAPS) that, via a single training process, simultaneously resolves transient FPE solutions for arbitrary multi-modal i...

Large Language Models (LLMs) achieve strong program repair performance but often suffer from over-editing, where excessive modifications overwrite correct code and hinder bug localization. We systematically quantify its impact and introduce precise repair task, which maximizes reuse of correct code while fixing only buggy parts. Building on this insight, we propose PRepair, a framework that mitigates over-editing and improves repair accuracy. PRepair has two components: Self-Breaking, which gene...
