UniCreative: Unifying Long-form Logic and Short-form Sparkle via Reference-Free Reinforcement Learning

A fundamental challenge in creative writing lies in reconciling the inherent tension between maintaining global coherence in long-form narratives and preserving local expressiveness in short-form texts. While long-context generation necessitates explicit macroscopic planning, short-form creativity often demands spontaneous, constraint-free expression. Existing alignment paradigms, however, typically employ static reward signals and rely heavily on high-quality supervised data, which is costly and difficult to scale. To address this, we propose \textbf{UniCreative}, a unified reference-free reinforcement learning framework. We first introduce \textbf{AC-GenRM}, an adaptive constraint-aware reward model that dynamically synthesizes query-specific criteria to provide fine-grained preference judgments. Leveraging these signals, we propose \textbf{ACPO}, a policy optimization algorithm that aligns models with human preferences across both content quality and structural paradigms without supervised fine-tuning and ground-truth references. Empirical results demonstrate that AC-GenRM aligns closely with expert evaluations, while ACPO significantly enhances performance across diverse writing tasks. Crucially, our analysis reveals an emergent meta-cognitive ability: the model learns to autonomously differentiate between tasks requiring rigorous planning and those favoring direct generation, validating the effectiveness of our direct alignment approach.

Attention-MoA: Enhancing Mixture-of-Agents via Inter-Agent Semantic Attention and Deep Residual Synthesis

As the development of Large Language Models (LLMs) shifts from parameter scaling to inference-time collaboration, the Mixture-of-Agents (MoA) framework has emerged as a general paradigm to harness collective intelligence by layering diverse models. While recent MoA variants have introduced dynamic routing and residual connections to improve efficiency, these methods often fail to facilitate deep semantic interaction between agents, limiting the system's ability to actively correct hallucinations and refine logic. In this paper, we introduce Attention-MoA, a novel MoA-based framework that redefines collaboration through Inter-agent Semantic Attention. Complemented by an Inter-layer Residual Module with Adaptive Early Stopping Mechanism, our architecture mitigates information degradation in deep layers while improving computational efficiency. Extensive evaluations across AlpacaEval 2.0, MT-Bench, and FLASK demonstrate that Attention-MoA significantly outperforms state-of-the-art baselines, achieving a 91.15% Length-Controlled Win Rate on AlpacaEval 2.0 and dominating in 10 out of 12 capabilities on FLASK. Notably, Attention-MoA enables an ensemble of small open-source models to outperform massive proprietary models like Claude-4.5-Sonnet and GPT-4.1, achieving an MT-Bench score of 8.83 and an AlpacaEval 2.0 LC Win Rate of 77.36%.
