Abstract:Bringing Large Language Models (LLMs) into industrial ride-hailing dispatch as semantic feature extractors over platform-scale behavioral logs is a compelling but under-explored data systems problem. Production matching pipelines remain dominated by structured numerical features, yet decisive behavioral signals (e.g., a driver's habitual aversion to certain regions) are inherently contextual and naturally expressible as LLM-generated user profiles. However, scaling such profiling to a live, millisecond-latency dispatcher faces three intertwined constraints rarely addressed together: on a platform with millions of daily orders, logs exceed any LLM's context window by orders of magnitude; most users are long-tail, with too few interactions for per-user profiling; and surface-fluent profiles do not necessarily improve downstream prediction utility. We present ProfiLLM, an agentic LLM data pipeline that operationalizes utility-aligned user profiling for production matching systems through two modules. (1) Tool-Augmented Global Knowledge Mining equips an LLM agent with 27 analytical tools to mine platform-scale data, producing reusable global knowledge, adaptive user clustering rules, and region-level supply-demand priors. (2) Utility-Aligned Profile Exploration generates multiple candidate profiles per cluster, evaluates them via a lightweight downstream utility proxy, iteratively refines the best candidates and constructs preference pairs for DPO fine-tuning. Deployed on DiDi's production dispatcher, ProfiLLM achieves up to +6.14% relative AUC improvement in outcome prediction, up to +4.35% GMV gain in dispatching simulation, and consistent improvements in a 14-day online A/B test including +0.47% GMV, +0.33% Completion Rate, and -0.82% Cancel-Before-Accept rate.
Abstract:We develop approximation and generalization error estimates for multi-input neural operators, with the output error measured in Sobolev norms. In contrast to standard operator-learning settings with a single input function, our framework allows multiple input functions defined on possibly different domains, with different dimensions and Sobolev regularities. The derived rates explicitly quantify the contribution of each input space to the final error bound. In particular, in the balanced regime, the approximation and generalization rates are governed by the interaction between the input dimensions, regularities, and Sobolev orders, while the dependence on the model complexity retains a \(\log\log/\log\)-type structure. Our analysis provides a general theoretical framework for multi-input operator learning, including Sobolev training, and is applicable to operator learning problems arising from partial differential equations and scientific computing.
Abstract:Efficient and scalable agentic intelligence requires models that can deliver both low-latency responses and strong reasoning capabilities while remaining practical to train, serve, and deploy. In this report, we present Ling-2.6 and Ring-2.6, a family of models designed to address this challenge at scale. Ling-2.6 is optimized for instant response generation and high capability per output token, whereas Ring-2.6 is tailored for deeper reasoning and more advanced agentic workflows. Instead of training from scratch, we upgrade the Ling-2.0 base model through architectural migration pre-training and large-scale post-training. This upgrade is guided by a unified co-design of model architecture, optimization objectives, serving systems, and agent training environments, enabling improvements in both model capability and deployment efficiency. At the architectural level, we introduce a hybrid linear attention design that integrates Lightning Attention with MLA, improving the efficiency of long-context training and decoding. To further enhance token efficiency, we optimize capability per output token through Evolutionary Chain-of-Thought, Linguistic Unit Policy Optimization, bidirectional preference alignment, and shortest-correct-response distillation. For agentic capabilities, we propose KPop, a reinforcement learning framework designed to support stable training of Ring-2.6-1T on large-scale environment-grounded data. KPop improves training efficiency through asynchronous scheduling across coding, search, tool use, and workflow execution, enabling scalable learning from complex agent-environment interactions. Together, Ling-2.6 and Ring-2.6 provide a practical pathway toward efficient, scalable, and open agentic systems. We open-source all checkpoints in the 2.6 family to support further research and development in practical agentic intelligence.
Abstract:In this report, we present our third-place solution for the DataMFM Challenge Track 1: Document Parsing. This track requires models to recover structured Markdown documents from document page images while preserving textual content and document structure. To address the complementary requirements of accurate content recovery and faithful structure reconstruction, we propose ParseFixer, an agentic framework for backbone parsing and selective correction. ParseFixer consists of two key modules: Full-Page Backbone Parsing (FBP) and Agentic Selective Correction (ASC). FBP produces stable initial Markdown outputs with MinerU2.5 Pro, while ASC detects high-value parsing failures and repairs them through a verify-and-rollback correction process. By placing selective multimodal correction after open-source backbone parsing, ParseFixer improves the recovery of key document elements without rewriting reliable backbone predictions. On the test set, our final system achieves an overall score of 61.78 and ranks third in Track 1, demonstrating its effectiveness for accurate document parsing. Our code will be released at: https://github.com/iLearn-Lab/CVPRW26-ParseFixer.
Abstract:In this report, we present our champion solution for the DataMFM Challenge Track 2: Chart Understanding. This track requires models to recover structured chart data and generate faithful natural-language summaries from chart images. To address the complementary requirements of accurate data extraction and factual narration, we propose ChartLens, a dual-branch framework for chart data correction and summary refinement. ChartLens consists of two key modules: Structure-Aware CSV Verification and Correction (SAVC) and Text-Retention-Guided Summary Refinement (TRSR). SAVC improves the reliability of structured data extraction through verification and correction, while TRSR enhances summary generation by preserving critical textual and numerical evidence from charts. By combining model adaptation, correction-based generation, and OCR-assisted evidence grounding, ChartLens improves both structured data recovery and summary factuality. On the test set, our final system achieves an overall score of 69.10 and ranks first in Track 2, demonstrating its effectiveness for accurate chart understanding. Our code will be released at: https://github.com/iLearn-Lab/CVPRW26-ChartLens.
Abstract:Text-to-speech (TTS) and singing voice synthesis (SVS) both aim to generate human vocal audio from symbolic inputs, but they impose different requirements on the generation process. Speech generation relies on flexible, language-driven prosody, whereas singing generation requires explicit melody control and accurate rhythmic alignment. This mismatch makes it challenging to train a single model that can generate both natural speech and controllable singing, since melody-related conditions should strongly constrain singing but should not restrict speech prosody. We present UniVoice, a unified speech and singing voice generation framework based on conditional flow matching. Instead of using a single undifferentiated conditioning representation, UniVoice factorizes the condition into content, melody, and timbre, which are encoded by modality-appropriate encoders and consumed by a shared Diffusion Transformer (DiT) backbone. For singing, the melody condition is represented by MIDI note sequences; for speech, it is replaced with a learned null melody token, allowing the model to infer prosody from linguistic and acoustic context. This design preserves explicit melody control for singing while avoiding the need to impose melody constraints on speech. We further analyze the null melody token as an approximation to melody marginalization in the conditional flow. Trained on 30k hours of speech and 35k hours of singing data, UniVoice achieves a speech PER of 5.26\%, comparable to dedicated TTS systems such as F5-TTS (5.21\%) and CosyVoice3 (5.30\%). On singing generation, UniVoice achieves a PER of 16.22\%, outperforming the unified baseline Vevo1.5 (24.72\%).
Abstract:Recent AI systems have achieved strong results on a wide range of benchmarks, yet these gains have not translated into economically meaningful deployment across many professional domains. We argue that this gap is largely an evaluation problem: widely used benchmarks lack sustained performance measurement on real and economically valuable workflows. This paper introduces Agents' Last Exam (ALE), a benchmark designed to evaluate AI agents on long-horizon, economically valuable, real-world tasks with verifiable outcomes. Developed in collaboration with 250+ industry experts, ALE covers non-physical industries defined with reference to O*NET / SOC 2018 (the U.S. federal occupational taxonomy). It is organized around a task taxonomy with 55 subfields grouped into 13 industry clusters covering 1K+ tasks. Current results show that the hardest tier remains far from saturated: across mainstream harness and backbone configurations, the average full pass rate is 2.6%. ALE is designed as a living benchmark: its task pool grows continuously as new workflows and industries are onboarded. More broadly, ALE is intended not merely as another leaderboard, but as an instrument for closing the gap between benchmark success and GDP-relevant impact.
Abstract:Recent progress in Large Language Model (LLM) agents has enabled promising advances in automated data science. However, existing approaches remain fundamentally limited by their static action sets and lack of principled long-horizon context management, hindering their ability to accumulate reusable experience across tasks and operate reliably in multi-stage, iterative data science pipelines. To address these challenges, we introduce EvoDS, a self-evolving autonomous data science agent that learns to expand its skills and adaptively managing long-term context through agentic reinforcement learning. Specifically, EvoDS introduces two key strategies: (1) Autonomous Skill Acquisition (ASA) mechanism, which enables agents to synthesize, validate, and reuse executable skills; and (2) Adaptive Context Compression (ACC) strategy, which treats context management as a learned control problem rather than passive truncation. These strategies are orchestrated within a two-stage multi-agent training scheme, enabling EvoDS to autonomously improve over time. Theoretically, we prove that EvoDS's hierarchical design reduces tool-selection error, and its optimization objective aligns with an information bottleneck principle, ensuring efficient context use. Empirically, EvoDS outperforms state-of-the-art open-source data science agents by an average of 28.9% across four diverse benchmarks while eliminating out-of-token failures. Our code and data are available at https://github.com/usail-hkust/EvoDS.
Abstract:In multi-robot systems, maintaining persistent communication graph connectivity is often overly restrictive, especially when robots have limited communication ranges but operate in large environments. Instead, allowing robots to temporarily disconnect and later reconnect is often more desirable for efficient task execution while still ensuring timely information sharing across the team. In this paper, we propose an adaptive prescribed-time control barrier function (adaptive PT-CBF) framework that enables robots to temporarily disconnect and re-enter the communication range within an adjustable and feasible prescribed time. Moreover, we introduce a reconnection triggering mechanism that jointly considers task execution and reconnection urgency, thereby providing a principled way to decide when reconnection should occur. Theoretical analysis justifies convergence to the satisfying reconnection within a prescribed finite time. Experimental results validate the performance of our proposed adaptive PT-CBF with improved task efficiency and satisfying reconnections.
Abstract:Recent advancements in video-based world models have demonstrated an unprecedented ability to synthesize high-fidelity visual sequences. However, a fundamental gap persists between visually plausible video generation and the functional requirements of a world model, particularly in maintaining a stable and reasonable internal state over extended temporal horizons. While existing benchmarks primarily emphasize visual quality, motion coherence, and text-video alignment, they largely overlook memory, the core capability of a world model to preserve consistency across long-term horizons and complex interactions. To address this gap, we present \textbf{MBench}, a comprehensive benchmark dedicated to quantifying and evaluating the memory capability of video world models. We systematically decompose the memory capability of video world models into three hierarchical and complementary core dimensions: entity consistency, environment consistency, and causal consistency, which are further refined into 12 quantifiable sub-dimensions for comprehensive characterization of long-term memory. Our benchmark is built upon rigorously curated real-captured long videos, and evaluated by rule-based quantitative matrices and VLM to enable objective and comprehensive consistency assessment. Extensive evaluations of mainstream state-of-the-art video world models reveal critical systemic limitations of existing methods in long-term state retention, providing a standardized benchmark and clear research direction to advance the field.
