Abstract:Physical-world interaction is inherently dynamic, as environments can evolve during execution, requiring agents to adapt their plans under non-stationary conditions. We study this challenge through long-horizon embodied planning under environment deviations and execution uncertainty. Existing embodied-task benchmarks can expose such failures, but these failures are usually treated as evaluation outcomes instead of learnable signals for training agents to recover. In this work, we introduce DynamicEnvPlan, a closed-loop framework for high-level planning in dynamic environments. It extends embodied task execution with humanoid agents, high-level primitive skills, structured semantic memory, and controllable perturbations. Our data synthesis design consists of planning, perturbation, and guarded correction modules that turn dynamic execution states into recovery-oriented traces. The resulting traces are used for staged supervised fine-tuning, enabling the planner to learn from both nominal execution and perturbed recovery trajectories. Using 104 task-scene combinations spanning i.i.d., compositional generalization, and out-of-distribution settings for fine-tuning and evaluation, DynamicEnvPlan boosts success rate from 33.3% for the base planner to 76.2%, while improving across all seven evaluation metrics critical to physical-world interaction, including safety and affordance compliance.
Abstract:Direct generation of Chinese vector fonts is a challenging and ongoing problem. A Chinese vector glyph contains complex component structure, anchor layout, and Bézier curve details, which work at different scales, but a standard vector sequence writes them together in one long sequence, making the task of vector font synthesis challenging. Existing direct vector generators often fail on complex characters, while raster-domain methods must vectorize the synthesized glyph images afterward. To address the above-mentioned problem, this paper proposes VecFontLLM, an anchor-guided multimodal large language model for direct few-shot synthesis of Chinese vector fonts. Our key idea is to generate vector glyphs through anchors rather than a standard vector sequence. Specifically, the proposed VecFontLLM first predicts and refines an anchor scaffold that fixes the coarse layout of components and contours, and then completes Bézier control points to recover local curvature and style. At test time, a confidence-guided generation chain samples multiple component candidates and continues synthesis from the highest-confidence one, improving stability for complex glyphs. This work demonstrates, for the first time, high-quality few-shot synthesis of complex Chinese vector glyphs directly in the vector domain, without raster generation or vectorization. Experiments on several Chinese font datasets show substantial improvements over existing vector font synthesis methods, competitive glyph rendering quality against raster-domain baselines, and vector command distributions close to real fonts.
Abstract:Earth observation satellite networks generate massive volumes of high-resolution imagery, whereas inter-satellite and downlink resources remain limited. In many time-sensitive missions, ground users require mission-relevant semantic information rather than a full raw-image downlink. This paper proposes SpaceRipple, a lightweight framework for mission-oriented semantic delivery and on-board processing in Earth observation satellite networks. A sensing satellite performs adaptive compression and metadata generation to reduce inter-satellite traffic, while an edge computing satellite restores the received representation and extracts task-relevant semantic information. Unlike fidelity-driven image transmission, SpaceRipple coordinates compression, forwarding, restoration, and semantic inference within a collaborative pipeline, enabling semantic-oriented delivery instead of pixel-level image delivery. A compression-aware MoE enhancement module is further introduced to improve robustness under degraded visual inputs. Experimental results show that SpaceRipple achieves favorable reconstruction quality, improved semantic detection performance, and substantial bandwidth savings, demonstrating its potential for efficient and reliable Earth observation under constrained satellite-network resources.
Abstract:Low Earth Orbit (LEO) satellite networks face critical challenges in radio resource allocation due to dynamic traffic demands and stringent interference constraints. Beam-hopping (BH) technology offers a promising solution by enabling dynamic beam resource allocation across spatial and temporal domains. In this paper, we propose a Tabu Search-based spatio-temporal BH resource allocation strategy for LEO satellite communication systems. Specifically, the BH scheduling problem is formulated to maximize user demand satisfaction under interference constraints. To solve this problem efficiently, the proposed Tabu Search framework integrates adaptive tabu tenure control, greedy-based initialization with interference-aware beam selection, and Simulated Annealing acceptance criteria. Extensive simulation results demonstrate that the proposed method consistently improves system throughput by 17.2\% and user satisfaction by 11.7\% compared with greedy-based BH strategies. These results indicate that the proposed approach provides a scalable and robust solution for dynamic resource allocation in interference-limited LEO satellite networks.
Abstract:Tabular foundation models (TFMs) increasingly rival tree ensembles, but their performance is often compute-inefficient: with standard affine scalar tokenization, each feature injects value variation through an essentially one-dimensional channel, and feature IDs/positional signals cannot increase within-feature value degrees of freedom, yielding weak early-layer value sensitivity and redundant hidden states. We present a unified tokenize-and-route framework for strong TFMs: RaBEL expands each scalar into compact localized RBF features (optionally exponent-gated) to improve conditioning and shallow-layer effective rank, while a reordered bidirectional block S->N->F aligns computation with the readout by aggregating cross-sample context before feature mixing and using attention pooling. Together, these changes yield LimiX-2M, a 2M-parameter model that outperforms larger TabPFN-v2 and TabICL baselines on widely used tabular benchmarks while reducing training and inference costs. These results highlight value-aware tokenization and readout-aligned routing as key levers for improving the accuracy--efficiency trade-off in TFMs. Model checkpoints and inference code are available at https://github.com/limix-ldm-ai/LimiX.
Abstract:We introduce Cosmos 3, a family of omnimodal world models designed to jointly process and generate language, image, video, audio, and action sequences within a unified mixture-of-transformers architecture. By supporting highly flexible input-output configurations, Cosmos 3 seamlessly unifies critical modalities for Physical AI -- effectively subsuming vision-language models, video generators, world simulators, and world-action models into a single framework. Our evaluation demonstrates that Cosmos 3 establishes a new state-of-the-art across a diverse suite of understanding and generation tasks, demonstrating omnimodal world models as scalable, general-purpose backbones for embodied agents. Our post-trained Cosmos 3 models were ranked as the best open-source Text-to-Image and Image-to-Video models by Artificial Analysis, and the best policy model by RoboArena at the time the technical report was written. To accelerate open research and deployment in Physical AI, we make our code, model checkpoints, curated synthetic datasets, and evaluation benchmark available under the Linux Foundation's OpenMDW-1.1 https://openmdw.ai/license/1-1/ License at https://github.com/nvidia/cosmos}{github.com/nvidia/cosmos and https://huggingface.co/collections/nvidia/cosmos3 .

Abstract:We present Xray-Visual, a unified vision model architecture for large-scale image and video understanding trained on industry-scale social media data. Our model leverages over 15 billion curated image-text pairs and 10 billion video-hashtag pairs from Facebook and Instagram, employing robust data curation pipelines that incorporate balancing and noise suppression strategies to maximize semantic diversity while minimizing label noise. We introduce a three-stage training pipeline that combines self-supervised MAE, semi-supervised hashtag classification, and CLIP-style contrastive learning to jointly optimize image and video modalities. Our architecture builds on a Vision Transformer backbone enhanced with efficient token reorganization (EViT) for improved computational efficiency. Extensive experiments demonstrate that Xray-Visual achieves state-of-the-art performance across diverse benchmarks, including ImageNet for image classification, Kinetics and HMDB51 for video understanding, and MSCOCO for cross-modal retrieval. The model exhibits strong robustness to domain shift and adversarial perturbations. We further demonstrate that integrating large language models as text encoders (LLM2CLIP) significantly enhances retrieval performance and generalization capabilities, particularly in real-world environments. Xray-Visual establishes new benchmarks for scalable, multimodal vision models, while maintaining superior accuracy and computational efficiency.
Abstract:Audio-visual speech recognition (AVSR) typically improves recognition accuracy in noisy environments by integrating noise-immune visual cues with audio signals. Nevertheless, high-noise audio inputs are prone to introducing adverse interference into the feature fusion process. To mitigate this, recent AVSR methods often adopt mask-based strategies to filter audio noise during feature interaction and fusion, yet such methods risk discarding semantically relevant information alongside noise. In this work, we propose an end-to-end noise-robust AVSR framework coupled with speech enhancement, eliminating the need for explicit noise mask generation. This framework leverages a Conformer-based bottleneck fusion module to implicitly refine noisy audio features with video assistance. By reducing modality redundancy and enhancing inter-modal interactions, our method preserves speech semantic integrity to achieve robust recognition performance. Experimental evaluations on the public LRS3 benchmark suggest that our method outperforms prior advanced mask-based baselines under noisy conditions.




Abstract:We argue that progress toward general intelligence requires complementary foundation models grounded in language, the physical world, and structured data. This report presents LimiX, the first installment of our large structured-data models (LDMs). LimiX treats structured data as a joint distribution over variables and missingness, thus capable of addressing a wide range of tabular tasks through query-based conditional prediction via a single model. LimiX is pretrained using masked joint-distribution modeling with an episodic, context-conditional objective, where the model predicts for query subsets conditioned on dataset-specific contexts, supporting rapid, training-free adaptation at inference. We evaluate LimiX across 10 large structured-data benchmarks with broad regimes of sample size, feature dimensionality, class number, categorical-to-numerical feature ratio, missingness, and sample-to-feature ratios. With a single model and a unified interface, LimiX consistently surpasses strong baselines including gradient-boosting trees, deep tabular networks, recent tabular foundation models, and automated ensembles, as shown in Figure 1 and Figure 2. The superiority holds across a wide range of tasks, such as classification, regression, missing value imputation, and data generation, often by substantial margins, while avoiding task-specific architectures or bespoke training per task. All LimiX models are publicly accessible under Apache 2.0.
Abstract:Embedding-Based Retrieval (EBR) is an important technique in modern search engines, enabling semantic match between search queries and relevant results. However, search logging data on platforms like Facebook Marketplace lacks the diversity and details needed for effective EBR model training, limiting the models' ability to capture nuanced search patterns. To address this challenge, we propose Aug2Search, an EBR-based framework leveraging synthetic data generated by Generative AI (GenAI) models, in a multimodal and multitask approach to optimize query-product relevance. This paper investigates the capabilities of GenAI, particularly Large Language Models (LLMs), in generating high-quality synthetic data, and analyzing its impact on enhancing EBR models. We conducted experiments using eight Llama models and 100 million data points from Facebook Marketplace logs. Our synthetic data generation follows three strategies: (1) generate queries, (2) enhance product listings, and (3) generate queries from enhanced listings. We train EBR models on three different datasets: sampled engagement data or original data ((e.g., "Click" and "Listing Interactions")), synthetic data, and a mixture of both engagement and synthetic data to assess their performance across various training sets. Our findings underscore the robustness of Llama models in producing synthetic queries and listings with high coherence, relevance, and diversity, while maintaining low levels of hallucination. Aug2Search achieves an improvement of up to 4% in ROC_AUC with 100 million synthetic data samples, demonstrating the effectiveness of our approach. Moreover, our experiments reveal that with the same volume of training data, models trained exclusively on synthetic data often outperform those trained on original data only or a mixture of original and synthetic data.
