Qwen-CUA: Native Computer Use for (almost) Everything

Native computer use offers a general interface for agents to operate almost any software available to people, but requires long-horizon state tracking, large-scale interactive experience, and learning from sparse yet verifiable outcomes. We introduce Qwen-CUA, a native computer-use agent with a 397B-A17B Qwen mixture-of-experts backbone. It observes only screenshots and acts through keyboard and mouse events, without DOM trees, accessibility metadata, or task-specific APIs. Its scaffold maintains up to 20 active screenshots and folds older visual history in fixed-size blocks to retain recent evidence while preserving reusable prompt prefixes. For training, we build a cloud rollout fleet with access to nearly 100,000 vCPUs and tens of thousands of concurrent environments, construct approximately 40,000 verifiable tasks, and collect personalized long-horizon workflows across everyday and professional software. We optimize complete trajectories with verifiable rewards and trajectory slicing, while iterative training runs refresh supervised data and recalibrate reinforcement-learning tasks. Across eight benchmarks, Qwen-CUA outperforms Qwen3.7 and remains competitive with leading proprietary systems, reaching 86.2 on OSWorld-Verified and 18.5/48.4 binary/partial completion on OSWorld 2.0. Scaling the same recipe to a model with over one trillion parameters yields Qwen-CUA-Max, improving these scores to 87.6 and 21.2/53.3. Qwen-CUA also reduces RedTeamCUA attack success from 36.6 to 16.4 relative to Qwen3.7. Efficiency analyses, a browser deployment, and Bash-augmented experiments further characterize practical behavior. These results establish native computer use as a broadly capable agent foundation and highlight scalable verifiable interaction and hybrid tool use as key directions.

OmegaUse-OfficeVal: Benchmarking LLM Agents on Long-Horizon Office-Suite Tasks with Economic Grounding

Large language model (LLM) agents are increasingly expected to assist users in completing tasks. However, existing benchmarks provide limited support for evaluating whether agents can carry out office-suite workflows at a reasonable cost. We introduce OmegaUse-OfficeVal, a benchmark for evaluating LLM agents on long-horizon office-suite tasks with task-level economic grounding. The benchmark comprises 100 tasks derived from office-suite requests proposed by practitioners and adapted through a privacy-preserving process. On average, these tasks require 2.32 hours of human labor to complete. An important feature of the benchmark is that each task is paired with two economic signals: human labor time and task price proxy. These signals enable direct comparisons between human costs and LLM inference costs, as well as value-weighted evaluation. To support stable evaluation, we develop code-based verifiers from fine-grained rubrics. We evaluate several frontier LLMs together with a human baseline. Although all evaluated LLMs are substantially cheaper and faster than human workers, they have not yet approached human-level deliverable quality. The code and dataset are fully open-sourced, and more information is available on our project website: https://omegause-officeval.github.io.

BitFair: A 12nm Bit-Serial CNN Accelerator with Learnable Early Termination and Adaptive Bit Ordering for Ultra-Low-Power XR Vision

Extended Reality (XR) wearables require always-on perception within tight power envelopes of a few watts and motion-to-photon latency budgets below 20 ms, leaving only a few milliseconds for neural-network inference. Bit-serial computing is attractive for such energy-efficient neural network acceleration, but many existing architectures still process all bits even when ReLU sets the final output to zero. This paper presents BitFair, a software-hardware co-designed bit-serial CNN accelerator with learnable bit-level early termination and adaptive bit ordering, working under the ultra-low-power and strict latency requirements of XR applications. BitFair exploits dynamic bit-level sparsity by learning per-layer thresholds that trigger early termination when partial sums reliably predict that the final ReLU output will be zero. Furthermore, it searches for layer-wise bit orders that prioritize informative bits, maximizing early termination without sacrificing accuracy. A GlobalFoundries 12nm FinFET implementation with a core area of 0.34 mm^2, 104 KB on-chip memory, and voltage scaling from 0.55 to 0.70 V achieves sub-millisecond latency, up to 117.0 BTOPS/W, and 0.07 pJ/SOP. On IBM DVS128 Gesture and N-MNIST, BitFair achieves 96.5% and 97.7% accuracy, respectively, while improving effective energy efficiency by 4.0-22.1x and accuracy by up to 9.2% over prior fabricated XR vision accelerators.

AutoIQ: An Ensemble Framework for Automatic Assessment of Geometric Distortion in Prostate Diffusion-Weighted Imaging

Geometric distortion in prostate diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) can impair lesion localization and reduce the reliability of MRI-based clinical assessment. We propose AutoIQ, an ensemble machine learning framework for automatic quantification and classification of DWI geometric distortion severity. A total of 140 retrospective prostate biparametric MRI examinations were analyzed, including 33 scans with severe distortion requiring repeat acquisition and 107 scans with acceptable distortion based on expert radiologist assessment. AutoIQ combines two complementary distortion quantification strategies: a segmentation-based method measuring prostate boundary mismatch between T2-weighted imaging (T2WI) and DWI, and a registration-based method estimating deformation magnitude after DWI-to-T2WI alignment. The resulting distortion scores were used to train individual classifiers and a logistic-regression ensemble model. Both computational methods significantly differentiated severe from acceptable distortion cases (p < 0.001). On an independent test set, the ensemble model achieved an accuracy of 0.95, F1-score of 0.93, and AUC of 0.98, outperforming individual models. These results suggest that AutoIQ can provide automated, quantitative quality assessment for prostate DWI and may help identify scans that require repeat acquisition.

Efficient LLM-based Advertising via Model Compression and Parallel Verification

Large language models (LLMs) have shown remarkable potential in advertising scenarios such as ad creative generation and targeted advertising. However, deploying LLMs in real-time advertising systems poses significant challenges due to their high inference latency and computational cost. In this paper, we propose an Efficient Generative Targeting framework that integrates adaptive group quantization, layer-adaptive hierarchical sparsification, and prefix-tree parallel verification to accelerate LLM inference while preserving generation quality. Extensive experiments on two real-world advertising scenarios demonstrate that our framework achieves significant speedup with acceptable quality degradation, making it operationally viable for practical deployments.

HopChain: Multi-Hop Data Synthesis for Generalizable Vision-Language Reasoning

Vision-language models (VLMs) show strong multimodal capabilities but still struggle with fine-grained vision-language reasoning. We find that long chain-of-thought (CoT) reasoning exposes diverse failure modes, including perception, reasoning, knowledge, and hallucination errors, which can compound across intermediate steps. However, most existing vision-language data used for reinforcement learning with verifiable rewards (RLVR) does not involve complex reasoning chains that rely on visual evidence throughout, leaving these weaknesses largely unexposed. We therefore propose HopChain, a scalable framework for synthesizing multi-hop vision-language reasoning data for RLVR training of VLMs. Each synthesized multi-hop query forms a logically dependent chain of instance-grounded hops, where earlier hops establish the instances, sets, or conditions needed for later hops, while the final answer remains a specific, unambiguous number suitable for verifiable rewards. We train Qwen3.5-35B-A3B and Qwen3.5-397B-A17B under two RLVR settings: the original data alone, and the original data plus HopChain's multi-hop data, and compare them across 24 benchmarks spanning STEM and Puzzle, General VQA, Text Recognition and Document Understanding, and Video Understanding. Although this multi-hop data is not synthesized for any specific benchmark, it improves 20 of 24 benchmarks on both models, indicating broad and generalizable gains. Consistently, replacing full chained queries with half-multi-hop or single-hop variants reduces the average score across five representative benchmarks from 70.4 to 66.7 and 64.3, respectively. Notably, multi-hop gains peak in long-CoT vision-language reasoning, exceeding 50 points in the ultra-long-CoT regime. These experiments establish HopChain as an effective, scalable framework for synthesizing multi-hop data that improves generalizable vision-language reasoning.

Revealing Behavioral Plasticity in Large Language Models: A Token-Conditional Perspective

In this work, we reveal that Large Language Models (LLMs) possess intrinsic behavioral plasticity-akin to chameleons adapting their coloration to environmental cues-that can be exposed through token-conditional generation and stabilized via reinforcement learning. Specifically, by conditioning generation on carefully selected token prefixes sampled from responses exhibiting desired behaviors, LLMs seamlessly adapt their behavioral modes at inference time (e.g., switching from step-by-step reasoning to direct answering) without retraining. Based on this insight, we propose Token-Conditioned Reinforcement Learning (ToCoRL), a principled framework that leverages RL to internalize this chameleon-like plasticity, transforming transient inference-time adaptations into stable and learnable behavioral patterns. ToCoRL guides exploration with token-conditional generation and keep enhancing exploitation, enabling emergence of appropriate behaviors. Extensive experiments show that ToCoRL enables precise behavioral control without capability degradation. Notably, we show that large reasoning models, while performing strongly on complex mathematics, can be effectively adapted to excel at factual question answering, which was a capability previously hindered by their step-by-step reasoning patterns.

Outcome Accuracy is Not Enough: Aligning the Reasoning Process of Reward Models

Generative Reward Models (GenRMs) and LLM-as-a-Judge exhibit deceptive alignment by producing correct judgments for incorrect reasons, as they are trained and evaluated to prioritize Outcome Accuracy, which undermines their ability to generalize during RLHF. We introduce Rationale Consistency, a fine-grained metric that quantifies the alignment between the model's reasoning process and human judgment. Our evaluation of frontier models reveals that rationale consistency effectively discriminates among state-of-the-art models and detects deceptive alignment, while outcome accuracy falls short in both respects. To mitigate this gap, we introduce a hybrid signal that combines rationale consistency with outcome accuracy for GenRM training. Our training method achieves state-of-the-art performance on RM-Bench (87.1%) and JudgeBench (82%), surpassing outcome-only baselines by an average of 5%. Using RM during RLHF, our method effectively improves performance as demonstrated on Arena Hard v2, notably yielding a 7% improvement in creative writing tasks. Further analysis confirms that our method escapes the deceptive alignment trap, effectively reversing the decline in rationale consistency observed in outcome-only training.

Learning Neural Operators from Partial Observations via Latent Autoregressive Modeling

Real-world scientific applications frequently encounter incomplete observational data due to sensor limitations, geographic constraints, or measurement costs. Although neural operators significantly advanced PDE solving in terms of computational efficiency and accuracy, their underlying assumption of fully-observed spatial inputs severely restricts applicability in real-world applications. We introduce the first systematic framework for learning neural operators from partial observation. We identify and formalize two fundamental obstacles: (i) the supervision gap in unobserved regions that prevents effective learning of physical correlations, and (ii) the dynamic spatial mismatch between incomplete inputs and complete solution fields. Specifically, our proposed Latent Autoregressive Neural Operator(LANO) introduces two novel components designed explicitly to address the core difficulties of partial observations: (i) a mask-to-predict training strategy that creates artificial supervision by strategically masking observed regions, and (ii) a Physics-Aware Latent Propagator that reconstructs solutions through boundary-first autoregressive generation in latent space. Additionally, we develop POBench-PDE, a dedicated and comprehensive benchmark designed specifically for evaluating neural operators under partial observation conditions across three PDE-governed tasks. LANO achieves state-of-the-art performance with 18--69$\%$ relative L2 error reduction across all benchmarks under patch-wise missingness with less than 50$\%$ missing rate, including real-world climate prediction. Our approach effectively addresses practical scenarios involving up to 75$\%$ missing rate, to some extent bridging the existing gap between idealized research settings and the complexities of real-world scientific computing.

Neural-HAR: A Dimension-Gated CNN Accelerator for Real-Time Radar Human Activity Recognition

Radar-based human activity recognition (HAR) is attractive for unobtrusive and privacy-preserving monitoring, yet many CNN/RNN solutions remain too heavy for edge deployment, and even lightweight ViT/SSM variants often exceed practical compute and memory budgets. We introduce Neural-HAR, a dimension-gated CNN accelerator tailored for real-time radar HAR on resource-constrained platforms. At its core is GateCNN, a parameter-efficient Doppler-temporal network that (i) embeds Doppler vectors to emphasize frequency evolution over time and (ii) applies dual-path gated convolutions that modulate Doppler-aware content features with temporal gates, complemented by a residual path for stable training. On the University of Glasgow UoG2020 continuous radar dataset, GateCNN attains 86.4% accuracy with only 2.7k parameters and 0.28M FLOPs per inference, comparable to CNN-BiGRU at a fraction of the complexity. Our FPGA prototype on Xilinx Zynq-7000 Z-7007S reaches 107.5 $\mu$s latency and 15 mW dynamic power using LUT-based ROM and distributed RAM only (zero DSP/BRAM), demonstrating real-time, energy-efficient edge inference.
