Code-MIE: A Code-style Model for Multimodal Information Extraction with Scene Graph and Entity Attribute Knowledge Enhancement

With the rapid development of large language models (LLMs), more and more researchers have paid attention to information extraction based on LLMs. However, there are still some spaces to improve in the existing related methods. First, existing multimodal information extraction (MIE) methods usually employ natural language templates as the input and output of LLMs, which mismatch with the characteristics of information tasks that mostly include structured information such as entities and relations. Second, although a few methods have adopted structured and more IE-friendly code-style templates, they just explored their methods on text-only IE rather than multimodal IE. Moreover, their methods are more complex in design, requiring separate templates to be designed for each task. In this paper, we propose a Code-style Multimodal Information Extraction framework (Code-MIE) which formalizes MIE as unified code understanding and generation. Code-MIE has the following novel designs: (1) Entity attributes such as gender, affiliation are extracted from the text to guide the model to understand the context and role of entities. (2) Images are converted into scene graphs and visual features to incorporate rich visual information into the model. (3) The input template is constructed as a Python function, where entity attributes, scene graphs and raw text compose of the function parameters. In contrast, the output template is formalized as Python dictionaries containing all extraction results such as entities, relations, etc. To evaluate Code-MIE, we conducted extensive experiments on the M$^3$D, Twitter-15, Twitter-17, and MNRE datasets. The results show that our method achieves state-of-the-art performance compared to six competing baseline models, with 61.03\% and 60.49\% on the English and Chinese datasets of M$^3$D, and 76.04\%, 88.07\%, and 73.94\% on the other three datasets.

VideoSeek: Long-Horizon Video Agent with Tool-Guided Seeking

Video agentic models have advanced challenging video-language tasks. However, most agentic approaches still heavily rely on greedy parsing over densely sampled video frames, resulting in high computational cost. We present VideoSeek, a long-horizon video agent that leverages video logic flow to actively seek answer-critical evidence instead of exhaustively parsing the full video. This insight allows the model to use far fewer frames while maintaining, or even improving, its video understanding capability. VideoSeek operates in a think-act-observe loop with a well-designed toolkit for collecting multi-granular video observations. This design enables query-aware exploration over accumulated observations and supports practical video understanding and reasoning. Experiments on four challenging video understanding and reasoning benchmarks demonstrate that VideoSeek achieves strong accuracy while using far fewer frames than prior video agents and standalone LMMs. Notably, VideoSeek achieves a 10.2 absolute points improvement on LVBench over its base model, GPT-5, while using 93% fewer frames. Further analysis highlights the significance of leveraging video logic flow, strong reasoning capability, and the complementary roles of toolkit design.

Ruyi2.5 Technical Report

We present Ruyi2.5, a multimodal familial model built on the AI Flow framework. Extending Ruyi2's "Train Once, Deploy Many" paradigm to the multimodal domain, Ruyi2.5 constructs a shared-backbone architecture that co-trains models of varying scales within a single unified pipeline, ensuring semantic consistency across all deployment tiers. Built upon Ruyi2.5, Ruyi2.5-Camera model is developed as a privacy-preserving camera service system, which instantiates Ruyi2.5-Camera into a two-stage recognition pipeline: an edge model applies information-bottleneck-guided irreversible feature mapping to de-identify raw frames at the source, while a cloud model performs deep behavior reasoning. To accelerate reinforcement learning fine-tuning, we further propose Binary Prefix Policy Optimization (BPPO), which reduces sample redundancy via binary response selection and focuses gradient updates on response prefixes, achieving a 2 to 3 times training speedup over GRPO. Experiments show Ruyi2.5 matches Qwen3-VL on the general multimodal benchmarks, while Ruyi2.5-Camera substantially outperforms Qwen3-VL on privacy-constrained surveillance tasks.

Privacy-Aware Camera 2.0 Technical Report

With the increasing deployment of intelligent sensing technologies in highly sensitive environments such as restrooms and locker rooms, visual surveillance systems face a profound privacy-security paradox. Existing privacy-preserving approaches, including physical desensitization, encryption, and obfuscation, often compromise semantic understanding or fail to ensure mathematically provable irreversibility. Although Privacy Camera 1.0 eliminated visual data at the source to prevent leakage, it provided only textual judgments, leading to evidentiary blind spots in disputes. To address these limitations, this paper proposes a novel privacy-preserving perception framework based on the AI Flow paradigm and a collaborative edge-cloud architecture. By deploying a visual desensitizer at the edge, raw images are transformed in real time into abstract feature vectors through nonlinear mapping and stochastic noise injection under the Information Bottleneck principle, ensuring identity-sensitive information is stripped and original images are mathematically unreconstructable. The abstract representations are transmitted to the cloud for behavior recognition and semantic reconstruction via a "dynamic contour" visual language, achieving a critical balance between perception and privacy while enabling illustrative visual reference without exposing raw images.

Perceptual Quality Optimization of Image Super-Resolution

Single-image super-resolution (SR) has achieved remarkable progress with deep learning, yet most approaches rely on distortion-oriented losses or heuristic perceptual priors, which often lead to a trade-off between fidelity and visual quality. To address this issue, we propose an \textit{Efficient Perceptual Bi-directional Attention Network (Efficient-PBAN)} that explicitly optimizes SR towards human-preferred quality. Unlike patch-based quality models, Efficient-PBAN avoids extensive patch sampling and enables efficient image-level perception. The proposed framework is trained on our self-constructed SR quality dataset that covers a wide range of state-of-the-art SR methods with corresponding human opinion scores. Using this dataset, Efficient-PBAN learns to predict perceptual quality in a way that correlates strongly with subjective judgments. The learned metric is further integrated into SR training as a differentiable perceptual loss, enabling closed-loop alignment between reconstruction and perceptual assessment. Extensive experiments demonstrate that our approach delivers superior perceptual quality. Code is publicly available at https://github.com/Lighting-YXLI/Efficient-PBAN.

OmniCT: Towards a Unified Slice-Volume LVLM for Comprehensive CT Analysis

Computed Tomography (CT) is one of the most widely used and diagnostically information-dense imaging modalities, covering critical organs such as the heart, lungs, liver, and colon. Clinical interpretation relies on both slice-driven local features (e.g., sub-centimeter nodules, lesion boundaries) and volume-driven spatial representations (e.g., tumor infiltration, inter-organ anatomical relations). However, existing Large Vision-Language Models (LVLMs) remain fragmented in CT slice versus volumetric understanding: slice-driven LVLMs show strong generalization but lack cross-slice spatial consistency, while volume-driven LVLMs explicitly capture volumetric semantics but suffer from coarse granularity and poor compatibility with slice inputs. The absence of a unified modeling paradigm constitutes a major bottleneck for the clinical translation of medical LVLMs. We present OmniCT, a powerful unified slice-volume LVLM for CT scenarios, which makes three contributions: (i) Spatial Consistency Enhancement (SCE): volumetric slice composition combined with tri-axial positional embedding that introduces volumetric consistency, and an MoE hybrid projection enables efficient slice-volume adaptation; (ii) Organ-level Semantic Enhancement (OSE): segmentation and ROI localization explicitly align anatomical regions, emphasizing lesion- and organ-level semantics; (iii) MedEval-CT: the largest slice-volume CT dataset and hybrid benchmark integrates comprehensive metrics for unified evaluation. OmniCT consistently outperforms existing methods with a substantial margin across diverse clinical tasks and satisfies both micro-level detail sensitivity and macro-level spatial reasoning. More importantly, it establishes a new paradigm for cross-modal medical imaging understanding.

Generative Reasoning Re-ranker

Recent studies increasingly explore Large Language Models (LLMs) as a new paradigm for recommendation systems due to their scalability and world knowledge. However, existing work has three key limitations: (1) most efforts focus on retrieval and ranking, while the reranking phase, critical for refining final recommendations, is largely overlooked; (2) LLMs are typically used in zero-shot or supervised fine-tuning settings, leaving their reasoning abilities, especially those enhanced through reinforcement learning (RL) and high-quality reasoning data, underexploited; (3) items are commonly represented by non-semantic IDs, creating major scalability challenges in industrial systems with billions of identifiers. To address these gaps, we propose the Generative Reasoning Reranker (GR2), an end-to-end framework with a three-stage training pipeline tailored for reranking. First, a pretrained LLM is mid-trained on semantic IDs encoded from non-semantic IDs via a tokenizer achieving $\ge$99% uniqueness. Next, a stronger larger-scale LLM generates high-quality reasoning traces through carefully designed prompting and rejection sampling, which are used for supervised fine-tuning to impart foundational reasoning skills. Finally, we apply Decoupled Clip and Dynamic sAmpling Policy Optimization (DAPO), enabling scalable RL supervision with verifiable rewards designed specifically for reranking. Experiments on two real-world datasets demonstrate GR2's effectiveness: it surpasses the state-of-the-art OneRec-Think by 2.4% in Recall@5 and 1.3% in NDCG@5. Ablations confirm that advanced reasoning traces yield substantial gains across metrics. We further find that RL reward design is crucial in reranking: LLMs tend to exploit reward hacking by preserving item order, motivating conditional verifiable rewards to mitigate this behavior and optimize reranking performance.

TermiGen: High-Fidelity Environment and Robust Trajectory Synthesis for Terminal Agents

Executing complex terminal tasks remains a significant challenge for open-weight LLMs, constrained by two fundamental limitations. First, high-fidelity, executable training environments are scarce: environments synthesized from real-world repositories are not diverse and scalable, while trajectories synthesized by LLMs suffer from hallucinations. Second, standard instruction tuning uses expert trajectories that rarely exhibit simple mistakes common to smaller models. This creates a distributional mismatch, leaving student models ill-equipped to recover from their own runtime failures. To bridge these gaps, we introduce TermiGen, an end-to-end pipeline for synthesizing verifiable environments and resilient expert trajectories. Termi-Gen first generates functionally valid tasks and Docker containers via an iterative multi-agent refinement loop. Subsequently, we employ a Generator-Critic protocol that actively injects errors during trajectory collection, synthesizing data rich in error-correction cycles. Fine-tuned on this TermiGen-generated dataset, our TermiGen-Qwen2.5-Coder-32B achieves a 31.3% pass rate on TerminalBench. This establishes a new open-weights state-of-the-art, outperforming existing baselines and notably surpassing capable proprietary models such as o4-mini.

Reliable Use of Lemmas via Eligibility Reasoning and Section$-$Aware Reinforcement Learning

Recent large language models (LLMs) perform strongly on mathematical benchmarks yet often misapply lemmas, importing conclusions without validating assumptions. We formalize lemma$-$judging as a structured prediction task: given a statement and a candidate lemma, the model must output a precondition check and a conclusion$-$utility check, from which a usefulness decision is derived. We present RULES, which encodes this specification via a two$-$section output and trains with reinforcement learning plus section$-$aware loss masking to assign penalty to the section responsible for errors. Training and evaluation draw on diverse natural language and formal proof corpora; robustness is assessed with a held$-$out perturbation suite; and end$-$to$-$end evaluation spans competition$-$style, perturbation$-$aligned, and theorem$-$based problems across various LLMs. Results show consistent in$-$domain gains over both a vanilla model and a single$-$label RL baseline, larger improvements on applicability$-$breaking perturbations, and parity or modest gains on end$-$to$-$end tasks; ablations indicate that the two$-$section outputs and section$-$aware reinforcement are both necessary for robustness.

CD4LM: Consistency Distillation and aDaptive Decoding for Diffusion Language Models

Autoregressive large language models achieve strong results on many benchmarks, but decoding remains fundamentally latency-limited by sequential dependence on previously generated tokens. Diffusion language models (DLMs) promise parallel generation but suffer from a fundamental static-to-dynamic misalignment: Training optimizes local transitions under fixed schedules, whereas efficient inference requires adaptive "long-jump" refinements through unseen states. Our goal is to enable highly parallel decoding for DLMs with low number of function evaluations while preserving generation quality. To achieve this, we propose CD4LM, a framework that decouples training from inference via Discrete-Space Consistency Distillation (DSCD) and Confidence-Adaptive Decoding (CAD). Unlike standard objectives, DSCD trains a student to be trajectory-invariant, mapping diverse noisy states directly to the clean distribution. This intrinsic robustness enables CAD to dynamically allocate compute resources based on token confidence, aggressively skipping steps without the quality collapse typical of heuristic acceleration. On GSM8K, CD4LM matches the LLaDA baseline with a 5.18x wall-clock speedup; across code and math benchmarks, it strictly dominates the accuracy-efficiency Pareto frontier, achieving a 3.62x mean speedup while improving average accuracy.
