arXiv:2605.18452v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Stochastic resonance (SR) could amplify weak electric-field signals in nonlinear systems by means of the externally injected noises. Here we propose and experimentally demonstrate a modified SR method, termed squeezing-induced SR, implemented in the system involving a trapped ion behaving as a Duffing oscillator. We find that squeezing the phase noise of the oscillator results in amplified fluctuation of the corresponding amplitude, which helps achieve the SR. Since no auxiliary noise source is needed, the squeezing-induced SR may enhance the signal-to-noise ratio by 4.28 $\pm$ 0.39 dB compared to the conventional noise-induced SR under identical conditions of the electric-field detection. This technique offers a promising approach for developing atomic ion sensors for detecting weak electric-field signals.

arXiv:2510.24208v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Language Models (LMs) encode substantial knowledge in their parameters, yet it remains unclear how to transfer such knowledge in a fine-grained manner, namely parametric knowledge transfer (PKT). A central challenge is to make cross-scale transfer effective and efficient when source and target models differ in architecture and parameterization, making direct parameter reuse strongly limited by neural incompatibility. In this paper, we identify latent semantic alignment as the key prerequisite for cross-scale knowledge transfer. Instead of directly moving layer parameters, our approach uses activations as the transfer medium. \textsc{SemAlign} has two stages: an \emph{layer attribution} stage that attributes task-relevant source layers and selects exactly one source layer for each target layer, and a \emph{semantic alignment} stage that pairs them layer by layer and optimizes the target with source-side semantic supervision. The alignment is carried out in latent space through semantic decomposition and recomposition. During the shallow-to-deep transfer, only the frontier target layer is trainable. The layer objective supervises the residual contribution of that layer by matching centered token-token relation geometry against an aligned supervisory residual, while output KL preserves source-level predictive behavior. The transferred medium is therefore neither a parameter block nor an absolute hidden state, but target-space residual geometry induced by paired source-layer supervision. Evaluations on four benchmarks demonstrate the efficacy of \textsc{SemAlign}, and further analysis confirms that semantic decomposition and recomposition provide a stable mechanism for cross-scale knowledge transfer.
arXiv:2605.18232v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Somali is a Cushitic language of the Horn of Africa with ~25 million speakers, yet no documented dedicated Somali pretraining corpus with a companion tokenizer and language-identification benchmark has been publicly released. Existing Somali text appears either inside multilingual distributions (HPLT v2, CC100, MADLAD-400, OSCAR, mC4) or in small, undocumented Somali-only uploads on Hugging Face. We introduce SomaliWeb v1, a quality-filtered Somali corpus of 819,322 documents (~303M tokens) built from three upstream sources (HPLT v2, CC100, Somali Wikipedia) through a six-stage reproducible pipeline. We release (i) the corpus, (ii) a matched BPE-16K tokenizer, and (iii) the first public side-by-side Somali benchmark of three production language identifiers. Our measurements reveal concrete quality defects in existing distributions: HPLT v2's "cleaned" Somali release retains 17.3% byte-exact duplicates, 56.1% of its documents contain fixable mojibake, and 10.7% of its byte-unique documents are near-duplicates at Jaccard tau=0.80. Our BPE-16K tokenizer emits 40.2% fewer tokens than GPT-4's cl100k_base on FLORES-200 Somali devtest as a tokenizer-level measurement; downstream language-model perplexity comparisons are deferred to a follow-up release.
arXiv:2605.17321v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Magnetized plasmas with equilibrium density gradients support drift-wave turbulence, which is often regulated by self-generated zonal flows. In this work, we experimentally examine the effect of increasing the magnetic field on turbulence characteristics in a linear plasma device. As the magnetic field is increased from 600 to 1000 G, zonal flow is suppressed while the mean flow increases. Spectral analysis of density and potential fluctuations shows a redistribution of power from low-frequency (0.1-1 kHz) to high-frequency (1-300 kHz) components, along with an increase in the spectral slope and the ratio PHF/PLF. This change is linked to a reduction in Reynolds stress due to the loss of correlation between radial and poloidal velocity fluctuations, which possibly weakens the drive for zonal flow generation. Similar behavior is observed near the peak gradient region, also indicating its global nature. The present results suggest a transition from a zonal-flow-dominated regime to a state dominated by smaller-scale fluctuations, possibly influenced by mean flow shear. These findings highlight how the magnetic field redistributes spectral energy across frequency scales in drift-wave turbulent plasmas
arXiv:2605.17875v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The accurate automated diagnosis of cardiac abnormalities from 12-lead electrocardiograms (ECGs) is critical for managing cardiovascular disease. However, detecting concurrent conditions remains a challenge for traditional deep learning models, which often have limited ability to model the long-range dependencies inherent in ECG signals. This manuscript proposes HexagonalWarriorMamba (HWMamba), a framework built on the Mamba architecture that processes 12-lead ECGs as single-channel 2D images rather than conventional 1D time series. By integrating a hierarchical architecture with a 2D Selective Scan mechanism, HWMamba is designed to model global context and complex spatial relationships within the data. The model is evaluated on the PhysioNet/Computing in Cardiology Challenge 2021 dataset, which includes 26 diagnostic labels and comprises recordings collected from seven institutions across four countries and three continents. Results demonstrate that HWMamba outperforms current state-of-the-art (SOTA) methods across five key threshold-dependent metrics, including Challenge Score and Subset Accuracy. These improvements provide a balance between strong discriminative capability and effective threshold selection derived from the training data, while maintaining near-SOTA performance in Macro AUROC. This Hexagonal Warrior performance, reflecting consistent performance across multiple evaluation dimensions, positions HWMamba as a robust and versatile approach for multi-label ECG classification.
arXiv:2605.17834v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Diffusion models exhibit remarkable generative capability, but their high latency limits practical deployment. Many studies have attempted to reduce sampling steps to accelerate inference. Among them, MeanFlow has attracted considerable attention due to its concise formulation and remarkable performance. Nevertheless, the instability of its optimization objective and the ''mean-seeking bias'' have limited its applicability to distill large-scale industrial models. To stabilize MeanFlow for distilling large-scale models, we first introduce a warm-up technique, in which the original differential solution of MeanFlow is replaced by a discrete solution. This design avoids training collapse caused by the MeanFlow target containing a stop-gradient term from an undertrained model. Once the model acquires a preliminary ability to fit the average velocity field, we switch the optimization objective back to the differential solution, enabling further refinement. Meanwhile, to alleviate the ''mean-seeking bias'' of MeanFlow under extremely few-step inference with complex target distributions, we incorporate trajectory distribution alignment as an auxiliary objective, encouraging the student model's trajectory distribution to align more closely with that of the teacher model. Our proposed distillation framework achieves superior performance compared to existing distillation approaches when applied to the text-to-image (T2I) model FLUX.1-dev (up to 12B parameters). Furthermore, when extended to the 80B-parameter state-of-the-art (SOTA) T2I model HunyuanImage 3.0, our method continues to demonstrate robust generalization and strong performance.
arXiv:2602.07884v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Survival analysis is complicated by censored data, high-dimensional features, and non-linear interactions. Classical models offer interpretability and superior calibration but are restricted to linear or predefined functional forms, while deep learning models are flexible and achieve strong discriminative performance, but tend to produce poorly calibrated survival estimates. To address this trade-off, we propose GRAFT (Gated Residual Accelerated Failure Time), a novel AFT model that decouples prognostic ranking from survival calibration. GRAFT's hybrid architecture combines a linear AFT model with a non-linear residual neural network, and it also integrates stochastic gates for automatic feature selection. The model is trained by optimizing a differentiable, C-index-aligned ranking loss using stochastic conditional imputation from local Kaplan-Meier estimators, while calibrated survival estimates are obtained through simple post-training calibration. In public benchmarks, GRAFT outperforms baselines in discrimination and calibration, while remaining robust and sparse in high-noise settings.
arXiv:2605.17697v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Cities are increasingly turning to large-scale data analysis and machine learning to make consequential decisions. While the algorithmic fairness community has focused on analyzing the risks and benefits associated with these complex methods, there has been much less scrutiny of the many simpler, but still widely used, data-driven tools that support government decision-making in a variety of settings. In this work, we study hand-crafted indices for geographic targeting and decision-making in emergency management -- a field responsible for coordinating preparedness and response efforts to hazards ranging from natural disasters to human threats. Indices, which capture abstract principles and overarching priorities (e.g., reducing social vulnerability), are low-complexity models that statistically aggregate chosen variables. They are generally flexible and interpretable, but can also be sensitive to key design choices and require strong assumptions. Through a case study of decision-making for extreme heat emergencies in NYC, we examine the challenges that practitioners may face in selecting an index for preparedness and response actions. We map empirical findings from index-based simulations to concerns related to validity and reliability from the measurement literature and show via sensitivity analyses that different reasonable choices of input variables or spatial scale can result in substantive differences to index risk scores, thereby affecting downstream government decision-making. We contrast these challenges with considerations for developing predictive algorithms that more narrowly relate to concrete, measurable outcomes. Ultimately, we provide generalizable recommendations that practitioners and public-sector technologists can use for navigating the trade-offs between indices and predictive algorithms in other government settings.
arXiv:2605.17682v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Future 3D semantic occupancy forecasting and motion planning are central to autonomous driving, as they require models to reason about how surrounding scenes evolve and how the ego vehicle should act. Existing occupancy world models commonly discretize scenes into latent embeddings, volumetric features, or quantized tokens, and forecast future states through fixed-step autoregressive generation. This limits temporal flexibility, obscures scene evolution, accumulates errors over long horizons, and poorly matches the continuous-time dynamics of real driving scenes. We propose GEM, a Gaussian Evolution Model for non-autoregressive occupancy world modeling, where driving scenes are represented as explicit continuous 4D Gaussian primitives with learned dynamics. Instead of rolling out future occupancy states step by step, GEM directly queries the Gaussian world representation at arbitrary timestamps and splats the corresponding conditional 3D Gaussians into semantic occupancy volumes. This enables efficient forecasting over the full horizon while retaining a compact and interpretable scene representation. By decoupling spatial geometry, temporal support, and primitive motion, GEM makes the predicted world easier to inspect, as each primitive's evolution can be followed continuously over time. The same representation also supports motion planning by predicting future ego trajectories from the learned Gaussian world. Extensive experiments show that GEM achieves state-of-the-art future semantic occupancy forecasting and strong motion planning performance, while providing flexible temporal querying.
arXiv:2605.17650v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: In the framework of Smart Cities and Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS), efficient parking management is essential to reduce urban congestion and emissions. However, current reservation-based systems often encounter a scenario in which users find their reserved slot occupied by a previous occupant who failed to vacate on time ("No PARK" situation). This paper introduces a dual-mechanism architecture designed to enhance system reliability. A Reservation Module uses a dynamic size buffer of non-reservable slots to grant parking availability. A reputation-based Reward System exploits a "star-based" metric to incentivize punctual departures through financial penalties and access restrictions. The simulations conducted with the SUMO urban simulator are promising, showing that the dynamic buffer strategy provides a better tradeoff between parking availability and reservation success. By progressively adapting to users behavior, the proposed system mitigates "NO PARK" instances and improves resource utilization, significantly enhancing urban viability.

arXiv:2510.12999v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Time integration of stiff systems is a primary source of computational cost in combustion, hypersonics, and other reactive transport systems. This stiffness can introduce time scales significantly smaller than those associated with other physical processes, requiring extremely small time steps in explicit schemes or computationally intensive implicit methods. Consequently, strategies to alleviate challenges posed by stiffness are important. While neural operators (DeepONets) can act as surrogates for stiff kinetics, a reliable operator learning strategy is required to appropriately account for differences in error between output variables and samples. Here, we develop AMORE, Adaptive Multi-Output Operator Network, a framework comprising an operator capable of predicting multiple outputs and adaptive loss functions ensuring reliable operator learning. The operator predicts all thermochemical states from given initial conditions. We propose two adaptive loss functions within the framework, considering each state variable's and sample's error to penalize the loss function. We designed the trunk to automatically satisfy Partition of Unity. To enforce unity mass-fraction constraint exactly, we propose an invertible analytical map that transforms the $n$-dimensional species mass-fraction vector into an ($n-1$)-dimensional space. We extend the proposed adaptive loss functions to trunk and branch training in two-step training of DeepONet with multiple outputs. We implemented another unity mass fraction constraint exactly using a softmax function on the predicted mass fraction. We demonstrate efficacy and applicability of our models through two examples: syngas (12 states), GRI-Mech 3.0 (24 active states out of 54). The proposed DeepONet will be a backbone for future CFD studies to accelerate turbulent combustion simulations. AMORE is a general framework, and here, we also demonstrate it for FNO.
arXiv:2605.17668v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Implementation of digital pathology leads to an increased number of whole slide images (WSIs). The large size of WSIs is challenging. Today, WSIs are compressed with codecs like JPEG resulting in several gigabytes per WSI, and large amounts of space are wasted storing glass. In this study, deep learning-based tissue segmentation for glass removal, and deep learning compression methods were explored and compared with JPEG, JPEG-2000 and JPEG-XL. Image pyramids (N=21) with intact glass, glass replaced by single-colored pixels, and glass replaced by zero-byte tiles were created and compressed with JPEG, JPEG-XL and a deep learning model. Additionally, several compression models were evaluated on a tissue patch dataset and compared with JPEG, JPEG-2000 and JPEG-XL. Removing glass reduced file sizes considerably for JPEG and JPEG-XL. Deep learning-based image compression reduced the WSI size by 43-72% compared to JPEG compression, whereas deep learning-based glass removal reduced the WSI size by 0.3-33%, and 6-62% using only single-colored pixels and removing all-glass tiles, respectively. Combining the two gave a small improvement to a 44-80% total size reduction which indicates that deep learning-based image compression is able to efficiently compress glass tiles, whereas JPEG is not. On the tissue patch dataset, the best deep learning-based compression models saved on average ~35-40% per patch compared to JPEG, while keeping an average SSIM above 0.95, whereas JPEG-XL and JPEG-2000 saved 17% and 14%, respectively while keeping an SSIM of 0.96. However, the deep learning models had higher decompression times than JPEG and JPEG-XL.
arXiv:2510.26635v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Summary: SAMRI is an MRI-specialized adaptation of the Segment Anything Model achieving superior whole-body MRI segmentation, particularly for small and clinically critical structures, through box and point prompts for rapid annotation. Purpose: Existing SAM adaptations treat MRI as a generic modality, overlooking variable tissue contrast, intensity inhomogeneity, and clinically important small structures. We propose an MRI-specialized foundation model with strong whole-body segmentation and zero-shot generalization for direct use on any MRI annotation task. Methods: SAMRI fine-tunes only the mask decoder of SAM (ViT-B/16), keeping encoders frozen to preserve pretrained representations and eliminate redundant passes-reducing training time by 94%, trainable parameters by 96%, and FLOPs by ~99% versus full-model retraining. Training used 1.1 million 2D slice-mask pairs from 30 datasets spanning 47 targets, T1/T2/FLAIR/DWI contrasts, and whole-body anatomy, with focal-Dice loss and bounding-box (with optional point) prompts. Sizes were stratified by mask area (small: <0.5%; medium: 0.5-3.5%; large: >3.5%), and significance assessed by the Wilcoxon signed-rank test. Results: SAMRI with box+point prompts achieved mean DSC 0.87 +/- 0.11 across 47 targets, outperforming MedSAM (0.74 +/- 0.24) by 17.6% (p < 0.05), with largest gains for small (+42.4%) and medium (+26.9%) structures. On six zero-shot datasets, SAMRI achieved mean DSC 0.85, outperforming baselines. Inference requires only ~4.5 GB VRAM through an interactive interface on standard hardware. Conclusion: Decoder-only fine-tuning on a large, MRI-specific corpus delivers superior whole-body segmentation with strong zero-shot generalization, particularly for small and clinically salient structures. Public code, pretrained models, and an interactive interface make SAMRI deployable for MRI segmentation research and clinical workflows.
arXiv:2601.06162v4 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Text-to-image diffusion models have achieved remarkable progress, yet their use raises copyright and misuse concerns, prompting research into machine unlearning. However, extending multi-concept unlearning to large-scale scenarios remains difficult due to three challenges: (i) conflicting weight updates that hinder unlearning or degrade generation; (ii) imprecise mechanisms that cause collateral damage to similar content; and (iii) reliance on additional data or modules, creating scalability bottlenecks. To address these, we propose Scalable-Precise Concept Unlearning (ScaPre), a unified framework tailored for large-scale unlearning. ScaPre introduces a conflict-aware stable design, integrating spectral trace regularization and geometry alignment to stabilize optimization, suppress conflicts, and preserve global structure. Furthermore, an Informax Decoupler identifies concept-relevant parameters and adaptively reweights updates, strictly confining unlearning to the target subspace. ScaPre yields an efficient closed-form solution without requiring auxiliary data or sub-models. Comprehensive experiments on objects, styles, and explicit content demonstrate that ScaPre effectively removes target concepts while maintaining generation quality. It forgets up to $\times \mathbf{5}$ more concepts than the best baseline within acceptable quality limits, achieving state-of-the-art precision and efficiency for large-scale unlearning.

arXiv:2602.18136v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Fluids composed of chiral active components can exhibit odd viscosity, a property that breaks time-reversal and parity symmetries. We investigate the hydrodynamic response to monopole and dipole singularities in a compressible thin fluid layer with odd viscosity, supported by a conventional lubrication layer. Using the two-dimensional Green's function in Fourier space, we derive exact analytical solutions for the flow and pressure fields. These solutions provide a detailed description of the hydrodynamic interactions governing the motion of colloidal particles and microswimmers in confined chiral fluids, offering insight into the role of odd viscosity in modifying particle dynamics and collective behavior. The derived results are directly applicable to modeling transport, control, and self-organization phenomena in active and chiral microfluidic systems.
arXiv:2605.18194v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: While Multi-Modal Large Language Models (MLLMs) demonstrate impressive capabilities in general reasoning, their embodied spatial intelligence remains hampered by a "Cartesian Illusion" - a reliance on text-based probability distributions that lack grounded, 3D topological understanding. This limitation is starkly exposed in multi-agent environments, which demand more than just scene perception; they require second-order Theory of Mind (ToM). Specifically, an Agent A must be able to infer Agent B's belief about the environment, governed strictly by Agent B's physical orientation and sensory limitations. In this paper, we probe the limits of two-stage spatial inference in MLLMs through a novel audio-visual task: requiring Agent A to predict Agent B's estimation of A's relative location. To solve this, we propose an Epistemic Sensory Bottleneck module that abandons rigid, rule-based coordinate transformations. Instead, we introduce an Anchor-Based Embodied Spatial Decomposition Chain-of-Thought (CoT). This guides the MLLM through a "geometric-to-semantic" projection, forcing it to first establish B's local coordinate system and then dynamically weight visual and auditory modalities based on whether A falls within B's visual frustum. Extensive evaluations reveal that while current MLLMs fundamentally struggle with spatial symmetry and out-of-view ambiguities (establishing a rigorous zero-shot baseline of 42% accuracy), our sensory-bounded reasoning chain robustly outperforms pure egocentric and allocentric baselines. By systematically benchmarking these perceptual bottlenecks, our work exposes the current limits of MLLM spatial reasoning and establishes a foundational paradigm for epistemic, modality-aware inference in Embodied AI.
arXiv:2603.09405v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Neural Architecture Search (NAS) for object detection is severely bottlenecked by high evaluation cost, as fully training each candidate YOLO architecture on COCO demands days of GPU time. Meanwhile, existing NAS benchmarks largely target image classification, leaving the detection community without a comparable benchmark for NAS evaluation. To address this gap, we introduce YOLO-NAS-Bench, the first surrogate benchmark tailored to YOLO-style detectors. YOLO-NAS-Bench defines a search space spanning channel width, block depth, and operator type across both backbone and neck, covering the core modules of YOLOv8 through YOLO12. We sample 1,000 architectures via random, stratified, and Latin Hypercube strategies, train them on COCO-mini, and build a LightGBM surrogate predictor. To sharpen the predictor in the high-performance regime most relevant to NAS, we propose a Self-Evolving Mechanism that progressively aligns the predictor's training distribution with the high-performance frontier, by using the predictor itself to discover and evaluate informative architectures in each iteration. This method grows the pool to 1,500 architectures and raises the ensemble predictor's R2 from 0.770 to 0.815 and Sparse Kendall Tau from 0.694 to 0.752, demonstrating strong predictive accuracy and ranking consistency. Using the final predictor as the fitness function for evolutionary search, we discover architectures that surpass all official YOLOv8-YOLO12 baselines at comparable latency on COCO-mini, confirming the predictor's discriminative power for top-performing detection architectures. The code is available at https://github.com/VDIGPKU/YOLO-NAS-Bench.
arXiv:2602.06866v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Reliable short-term demand forecasting is essential for managing shared micro-mobility services and ensuring responsive, user-centered operations. This study introduces T-STAR (Two-stage Spatial and Temporal Adaptive contextual Representation), a novel transformer-based probabilistic framework designed to forecast station-level bike-sharing demand at a 15-minute resolution. T-STAR addresses key challenges in high-resolution forecasting by disentangling consistent demand patterns from short-term fluctuations through a hierarchical two-stage structure. The first stage captures coarse-grained hourly demand patterns, while the second stage improves prediction accuracy by incorporating high-frequency, localized inputs, including recent fluctuations and real-time demand variations in connected metro services, to account for temporal shifts in short-term demand. Time series transformer models are employed in both stages to generate probabilistic predictions. Extensive experiments using Washington D.C.'s Capital Bikeshare data demonstrate that T-STAR outperforms existing methods in both deterministic and probabilistic accuracy. The model exhibits strong spatial and temporal robustness across stations and time periods. A zero-shot forecasting experiment further highlights T-STAR's ability to transfer to previously unseen service areas without retraining. These results underscore the framework's potential to deliver granular, reliable, and uncertainty-aware short-term demand forecasts, which enable seamless integration to support multimodal trip planning for travelers and enhance real-time operations in shared micro-mobility services.
arXiv:2605.18188v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Anomaly detection in batch processes is hindered by transient dynamics, scarce fault labels, and reliance on single-modality sensor data. This work introduces UTOPYA (Unified Temporal Observation for Physics-Informed Anomaly Detection and Time-Series Prediction), a 15.2M-parameter multimodal framework that jointly addresses anomaly detection, time-series prediction, and phase classification in batch distillation by fusing eight data modalities through Feature-wise Linear Modulation (FiLM) conditioned cross-modal attention and gated fusion. A physics-informed regularisation scheme introduced in this work enforces temporal smoothness and thermodynamic monotonicity, while curriculum learning introduces training samples in order of physical difficulty. On the 119-experiment multimodal batch distillation dataset of Arweiler et al. (2026), UTOPYA achieves a window-level test AUROC of 0.832 and 0.874 under multi-signal experiment-level scoring, substantially outperforming four external baselines (PCA, autoencoder, Isolation Forest, and LSTM autoencoder) evaluated under identical conditions (+0.147 window-level AUROC over the best baseline). A multimodal ablation over 15~architectural configurations shows that static context via FiLM conditioning is the key enabler, lifting experiment-level multi-signal AUROC by +0.145 over the unimodal baseline (0.729 to 0.874). Separately, a training ablation across 14 design choices reveals that several widely-adopted techniques, including instance normalisation, Mixup, ensembling, test-time augmentation, and stochastic weight averaging, fail to improve or actively degrade generalisation in this data-scarce setting. These negative results expose a fundamental tension between smoothing-based regularisation and anomaly detection, providing practical guidance for multimodal process monitoring deployment.
arXiv:2605.18227v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Pseudo-random number generators (PRNGs) are widely used in modern computing and are expected to exhibit excellent statistical performance and repeatability. This study evaluates and compares modern PRNGs used in high performance computing and artificial intelligence. Our selections comes from different families, including Xoshiro, Philox, PCG, and MRG32k3a. We systematically assess the quality of these generators; instead of testing a single stream for each generator, we test more than 10 3 streams with the BigCrush battery form the TestU01 library. The results, involving more than 4.5 years of cumulative computing time, are analyzed against the claims made by the generators' creators. The highest success rate is 72%, and all tests have been failed by almost every generator, the failed tests are documented. To ensure fairness, all tests are conducted under consistent conditions and are designed to closely simulate real-world usage. The results of each test are available, usable and reproducible with a git repository.
arXiv:2604.28134v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: We consider the problem of regenerating 3D objects from 2D images and initial 3D shapes. Most 3D generators operate in a one-shot fashion, converting text or images to a 3D object with limited controllability. We introduce instead MeshReGen, a 3D regenerator that is conditioned on an initial 3D shape. This conceptually simple formulation allows us to support numerous useful tasks, including 3D enhancement, reconstruction, and editing. MeshReGen uses a new conditioning mechanism based on VecSet, which allows the regenerator to update or improve the input geometry with consistent fine-grained details. MeshReGen learns a widely applicable regeneration prior from off-the-shelf 3D datasets via self-supervised pretext tasks and augmentations, without additional annotations. We evaluate both the geometric consistency and fine-grained quality of MeshReGen, achieving state-of-the-art performance in controllable 3D generation across several tasks.
arXiv:2604.21363v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Bridging the gap between embodied intelligence and embedded deployment remains a key challenge in intelligent robotic systems, where perception, reasoning, and planning must operate under strict constraints on computation, memory, energy, and real-time execution. In vision-and-language navigation (VLN), existing approaches often face a trade-off between reasoning capability and deployment efficiency on real-world platforms. In this paper, we present a deployable embodied VLN system that achieves both high efficiency and strong high-level reasoning on real-world robots. The system is decomposed into a fast perception-action layer and a deep reasoning layer running asynchronously at different time scales, with a shared memory layer enabling efficient interaction between them. To support long-horizon reasoning, we incrementally construct a compact memory graph and progressively feed decomposed subgraphs into a vision-language model (VLM). Furthermore, we formulate exploration as a Weighted Traveling Repairman Problem (WTRP) by jointly considering reasoning outcomes and the spatial distribution of candidate regions. Extensive experiments in simulation and real-world environments demonstrate improved navigation success and efficiency over existing VLN approaches while maintaining real-time performance on resource-constrained hardware. Code and additional real-world experiments are available at https://github.com/xukuanHIT/HiCo-Nav.
arXiv:2604.13353v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: This paper presents a hierarchical multi-agent LLM architecture to bridge communication gaps between non-technical end users and telecommunications domain experts in private network environments. We propose a cross-domain query translation framework that leverages specialized language models coordinated through multi-agent reflection-based reasoning. The resulting system addresses three critical challenges: (1) accurately classify user queries related to telecommunications network issues using a dual-stage hierarchical approach, (2) preserve user privacy through the anonymization of semantically relevant personally identifiable information (PII) while maintaining diagnostic utility, and (3) translate technical expert responses into user-comprehensible language. Our approach employs ReAct-style agents enhanced with self-reflection mechanisms for iterative output refinement, semantic-preserving anonymization techniques respecting $k$-anonymity and differential privacy principles, and few-shot learning strategies designed for limited training data scenarios. The framework was comprehensively evaluated on 10,000 previously unseen validation scenarios across various vertical industries.
arXiv:2605.18556v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Embodied control increasingly requires models to follow compositional language instructions while reasoning over dynamic visual states. However, current vision-language-action policies and world-action models often couple linguistic knowledge with visual computation in a shared backbone or conditioning pathway, leading to modality competition and making knowledge extension dependent on backbone updates. In this paper, we introduce Key-Gram, a conditional-memory framework that separates language-derived world knowledge from visual-state reasoning for embodied control. At its core is a memory module that decomposes an instruction into task-specific key-grams, retrieves static linguistic priors through deterministic hashed lookup, and injects the retrieved entries into selected hidden layers through context-aware gating and lightweight convolutional fusion. This design allows the backbone to devote its main capacity to visual reasoning and action inference, while reusable instruction knowledge is stored in an extensible external memory. The logical memory table can be conveniently partitioned during training and, due to its $O(1)$ lookup pattern, efficiently placed on host memory during inference. Across RoboTwin2.0, LIBERO/LIBERO-Plus, and real-world dual-arm manipulation, Key-Gram consistently improves both $\pi_{0}$ and $\pi_{0.5}$ backbones, with average relative gains of $29.5\%/9.9\%$ on RoboTwin2.0, $35.8\%/4.5\%$ on LIBERO-Plus transfer without target-domain fine-tuning, and $15.4\%/8.1\%$ on real-world long-horizon tasks. These results demonstrate that externalized linguistic memory provides an effective and extensible mechanism for improving compositional grounding, transfer, and real-world manipulation.
arXiv:2605.18621v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Spatial intelligence requires multimodal large language models (MLLMs) to move beyond single-view perception and reason consistently about objects, visibility, geometry, and interactions across multiple viewpoints. However, progress in cross-view reasoning remains limited by three major gaps: the scarcity of large-scale well-annotated training data, the lack of comprehensive benchmarks for systematic evaluation, and the absence of explicit alignment mechanisms that establish object-level consistency across views. To address these gaps, we thoroughly develop CrossView Suite across three coordinated components: CrossViewSet, CrossViewBench, and CrossViewer. Firstly, we introduce a multi-agent data engine to meticulously curate a large-scale, high-quality cross-view instruction dataset, termed CrossViewSet, covering 17 fine-grained task types with 1.6M samples. Second, we meticulously create a scene-disjoint CrossViewBench to comprehensively assess the cross-view spatial understanding capability of an MLLM, evaluating it across various aspects. Finally, we propose CrossViewer, a progressive three-stage framework for cross-view spatial reasoning in MLLMs, following a Perception -> Alignment -> Reasoning paradigm. Our method equips an adaptive spatial region tokenizer to capture fine-grained object representations, and then aligns the multi-view objects explicitly, and thus fuses aligned features for boosting the cross-view inference capacity for MLLMs. Extensive experiments and analyses show that large-scale training data, systematic evaluation, and explicit cross-view alignment are all critical for advancing MLLMs from single-view perception toward real-world spatial intelligence.
