Recent advances in large language models have improved the capabilities of coding agents, yet systematic evaluation of complex, end-to-end website development remains limited. To address this gap, we introduce Vision2Web, a hierarchical benchmark for visual website development, spanning from static UI-to-code generation, interactive multi-page frontend reproduction, to long-horizon full-stack website development. The benchmark is constructed from real-world websites and comprises a total of 193 ...

We propose Process-Aware Policy Optimization (PAPO), a method that integrates process-level evaluation into Group Relative Policy Optimization (GRPO) through decoupled advantage normalization, to address two limitations of existing reward designs. Outcome reward models (ORM) evaluate only final-answer correctness, treating all correct responses identically regardless of reasoning quality, and gradually lose the advantage signal as groups become uniformly correct. Process reward models (PRM) offe...

Existing research has identified three structural performance bottlenecks in AI research agents: (1) synchronous single-GPU execution constrains sample throughput, limiting the benefit of search; (2) a generalization gap where validation-based selection causes performance to degrade over extended search horizons; and (3) the limited capability of fixed, single-turn LLM operators imposes a ceiling on search performance. We introduce AIRA$_2$, which addresses these bottlenecks through three archit...

Designing quantum algorithms is a complex and counterintuitive task, making it an ideal candidate for AI-driven algorithm discovery. To this end, we employ the Hive, an AI platform for program synthesis, which utilises large language models to drive a highly distributed evolutionary process for discovering new algorithms. We focus on the ground state problem in quantum chemistry, and discover efficient quantum heuristic algorithms that solve it for molecules LiH, H2O, and F2 while exhibiting sig...

Smart contracts govern billions of dollars in decentralized finance (DeFi), yet automated vulnerability detection remains challenging because many vulnerabilities are tightly coupled with project-specific business logic. We observe that recurring vulnerabilities across diverse DeFi business models often share the same underlying economic mechanisms, which we term DeFi semantics, and that capturing these shared abstractions can enable more systematic auditing. Building on this insight, we propose...

Beneath the stunning visual fidelity of modern AIGC models lies a "logical desert", where systems fail tasks that require physical, causal, or complex spatial reasoning. Current evaluations largely rely on superficial metrics or fragmented benchmarks, creating a ``performance mirage'' that overlooks the generative process. To address this, we introduce ViGoR Vision-G}nerative Reasoning-centric Benchmark), a unified framework designed to dismantle this mirage. ViGoR distinguishes itself through f...

Vision-language-action models have reshaped autonomous driving to incorporate languages into the decision-making process. However, most existing pipelines only utilize the language modality for scene descriptions or reasoning and lack the flexibility to follow diverse user instructions for personalized driving. To address this, we first construct a large-scale driving dataset (InstructScene) containing around 100,000 scenes annotated with diverse driving instructions with the corresponding traje...

Automatic speech recognition (ASR) systems have achieved near-human accuracy on curated benchmarks, yet still fail in real-world voice agents under conditions that current evaluations do not systematically cover. Without diagnostic tools that isolate specific failure factors, practitioners cannot anticipate which conditions, in which languages, will cause what degree of degradation. We introduce WildASR, a multilingual (four-language) diagnostic benchmark sourced entirely from real human speech ...

We introduce Voxtral TTS, an expressive multilingual text-to-speech model that generates natural speech from as little as 3 seconds of reference audio. Voxtral TTS adopts a hybrid architecture that combines auto-regressive generation of semantic speech tokens with flow-matching for acoustic tokens. These tokens are encoded and decoded with Voxtral Codec, a speech tokenizer trained from scratch with a hybrid VQ-FSQ quantization scheme. In human evaluations conducted by native speakers, Voxtral TT...

Interest in the concept of AI-driven harmful manipulation is growing, yet current approaches to evaluating it are limited. This paper introduces a framework for evaluating harmful AI manipulation via context-specific human-AI interaction studies. We illustrate the utility of this framework by assessing an AI model with 10,101 participants spanning interactions in three AI use domains (public policy, finance, and health) and three locales (US, UK, and India). Overall, we find that that the tested...

Out-of-distribution (OOD) detection aims to identify samples that deviate from in-distribution (ID). One popular pipeline addresses this by introducing negative labels distant from ID classes and detecting OOD based on their distance to these labels. However, such labels may present poor activation on OOD samples, failing to capture the OOD characteristics. To address this, we propose \underline{T}est-time \underline{A}ctivated \underline{N}egative \underline{L}abels (TANL) by dynamically evalua...

Large language models and autonomous agents are increasingly explored for EDA automation, but many existing integrations still rely on script-level or request-level interactions, which makes it difficult to preserve tool state and support iterative optimization in real production-oriented environments. In this work, we present FluxEDA, a unified and stateful infrastructure substrate for agentic EDA. FluxEDA introduces a managed gateway-based execution interface with structured request and respon...

Multimodal large language models are promising for clinical visual question answering tasks, but scaling to 3D imaging is hindered by high computational costs. Prior methods often rely on 2D slices or fixed-length token compression, disrupting volumetric continuity and obscuring subtle findings. We present Photon, a framework that represents 3D medical volumes with token sequences of variable length. Photon introduces instruction-conditioned token scheduling and surrogate gradient propagation to...

Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) systems face significant challenges in complex reasoning, multi-hop queries, and domain-specific QA. While existing GraphRAG frameworks have made progress in structural knowledge organization, they still have limitations in cross-industry adaptability, community report integrity, and retrieval performance. This paper proposes UniAI-GraphRAG, an enhanced framework built upon open-source GraphRAG. The framework introduces three core innovations: (1) Ontology-Gu...

Multi-Behavior Recommendation (MBR) leverages multiple user interaction types (e.g., views, clicks, purchases) to enrich preference modeling and alleviate data sparsity issues in traditional single-behavior approaches. However, existing MBR methods face fundamental challenges: they lack principled frameworks to model complex confounding effects from user behavioral habits and item multi-behavior distributions, struggle with effective aggregation of heterogeneous auxiliary behaviors, and fail to ...

Forgetting a subset in machine unlearning is rarely an isolated task. Often, retained samples that are closely related to the forget set can be unintentionally affected, particularly when they share correlated features from pretraining or exhibit strong semantic similarities. To address this challenge, we propose a novel two-phase optimization framework specifically designed to handle such retai-forget entanglements. In the first phase, an augmented Lagrangian method increases the loss on the fo...

Data-centric training has emerged as a promising direction for improving large language models (LLMs) by optimizing not only model parameters but also the selection, composition, and weighting of training data during optimization. However, existing approaches to data selection, data mixture optimization, and data reweighting are often developed in isolated codebases with inconsistent interfaces, hindering reproducibility, fair comparison, and practical integration. In this paper, we present Data...

Short-term (0-24 hours) precipitation forecasting is highly valuable to socioeconomic activities and public safety. However, the highly complex evolution patterns of precipitation events, the extreme imbalance between precipitation and non-precipitation samples, and the inability of existing models to efficiently and effectively utilize large volumes of multi-source atmospheric observation data hinder improvements in precipitation forecasting accuracy and computational efficiency. To address the...

Time series forecasting is critical across finance, healthcare, and cloud computing, yet progress is constrained by a fundamental bottleneck: the scarcity of large-scale, high-quality benchmarks. To address this gap, we introduce \textsc{QuitoBench}, a regime-balanced benchmark for time series forecasting with coverage across eight trend$\times$seasonality$\times$forecastability (TSF) regimes, designed to capture forecasting-relevant properties rather than application-defined domain labels. The ...

Genome-Wide Association Studies (GWAS) identify associations between genetic variants and disease; however, moving beyond associations to causal mechanisms is critical for therapeutic target prioritization. The recently proposed Knowledge Graph GWAS (KGWAS) framework addresses this challenge by linking genetic variants to downstream gene-gene interactions via a knowledge graph (KG), thereby improving detection power and providing mechanistic insights. However, the original KGWAS implementation r...

Large Language Models (LLMs) have shown promising results in automating formal verification. However, existing approaches treat proof generation as a static, end-to-end prediction over source code, relying on limited verifier feedback and lacking access to concrete program behaviors. We present EXVERUS, a counterexample-guided framework that enables LLMs to reason about proofs using behavioral feedback via counterexamples. When a proof fails, EXVERUS automatically generates and validates counter...

We introduce Intern-S1-Pro, the first one-trillion-parameter scientific multimodal foundation model. Scaling to this unprecedented size, the model delivers a comprehensive enhancement across both general and scientific domains. Beyond stronger reasoning and image-text understanding capabilities, its intelligence is augmented with advanced agent capabilities. Simultaneously, its scientific expertise has been vastly expanded to master over 100 specialized tasks across critical science fields, incl...
