Vision-language compositionality is the ability to identify which properties, relations, quantities, and states bind to which entities in both an image and a caption, and to match those bindings…
This paper investigates the Women-Are-Wonderful (WaW) effect in language-model blame attribution: a favorable bias in which women receive more positive evaluations than men. Using 11,270…
Rooftop solar potential estimation often relies on LiDAR, digital surface models (DSMs), or pipelines that explicitly reconstruct roof geometry before estimating solar potential. We propose Direct…
This paper presents a neural network model for storing and recalling color images of different sizes using the Cue BallRecall Net systems [1,2,3,4,5]. The Cue Ball system consists of a Recall Net…
Self-distillation methods for large language models with an exponential moving average (EMA) teacher already retain a history of student updates. Muon nevertheless stores a separate momentum buffer,…
An evaluated candidate can improve a local search step, alter the population used by later steps, and affect a solver's final result. We distinguish these three questions using Da Gou Gun…
On-policy reinforcement learning for large language models assumes that training responses are sampled from the current policy. In practice, an inference engine samples the responses and a separate…
Training acceleration methods for diffusion transformers, such as REPA and dispersive regularization, are commonly explained by additional supervision, spatial-structure priors, or improved feature…
As publications and products on time series forecasting (TSF) proliferate, researchers face a growing burden of analyzing existing work. First, not all publications release code.
Across coding, web, and tool-use tasks, language-model agents are now routinely trained with the same recipe: supervised fine-tuning (SFT) to learn the interface, then multi-turn reinforcement…
Coding agents increasingly rely on automated approvers to decide whether a proposed shell command may run. Existing approvers, from rule-based checkers to guardrail models and deployed permission…
Achieving the broad task generalization of embodied models in physical environments remains a central challenge in robot learning. We study this challenge in World Action Models (WAMs) through two…
Effective computer-use agents (CUAs) should seamlessly combine visual GUI interaction with code and terminal execution within a single policy. We present Mage-VL-Cowork, a 4B hybrid CUA trained from…
A capable voice assistant must do more than recognize words; it must understand requests, reason over context, sustain conversations, and act through tools. We present Apriel Voice 27B Preview, an…
A voice agent's speech recognizer transcribes everyone near the microphone, including people other than the caller. I fine-tuned a public causal target-speaker extraction model (REAL-TSE, 27M…
An observer sees only part of the surrounding world, yet must keep track of what lies beyond the current view. Spatial perception therefore involves more than recognizing individual images: it calls…
Interactive world models generate visual content conditioned on user actions, yet maintaining spatial consistency over long-horizon exploration in real time remains challenging. Existing approaches…
The hair of stylized characters in games and avatars is built from hair cards: artist-placed ribbons whose geometry is the visible hair, animated by spring bones. Existing image-based methods produce…
On-policy Self-distillation (OPSD) has proven effective for post-training large language models by constructing a teacher conditioned on privileged references. However, existing approaches keep the…
Foundation models are typically trained in stages: pretraining, midtraining, supervised fine-tuning (SFT), and reinforcement learning (RL), with changes in both data and learning algorithms. We show…
Safety alignment for Large Language Models is heavily focused on English with limited multilingual representation, particularly damaging low-resource language performance. Related open training…
Do research agents have taste, the judgment of which experiments are worth running before their outcomes are known? We give six frontier models seven recent NLP papers.
Retrieval-augmented generation commonly serves separate models for reranking and answering, duplicating model residency and passage processing. We introduce Glance, which equips the generator with a…
We present PhysInsert, a framework for physically plausible reference-based object insertion that jointly adapts objects and their surrounding scenes. Existing methods often rely on masked inputs,…
