Position: Agentic AI System Is a Foreseeable Pathway to AGI

Is monolithic scaling the only path to AGI? This paper challenges the dogma that purely scaling a single model is sufficient to achieve Artificial General Intelligence. Instead, we identify Agentic AI as a necessary paradigm for mastering the complex, heterogeneous distribution of real-world tasks. Through rigorous theoretical derivations, we contrast the optimization constraints of monolithic learners against the efficiency of Agentic systems, progressing from simple routing mechanisms to general Directed Acyclic Graph (DAG) topologies. We demonstrate that Agentic AI achieves exponentially superior generalization and sample efficiency. Finally, we discuss the connection to Mixture-of-Experts, reinterpret the instability of current multi-agent frameworks, and call for greater research focus on Agentic AI.

Hölder Policy Optimisation

Group Relative Policy Optimisation (GRPO) enhances large language models by estimating advantages across a group of sampled trajectories. However, mapping these trajectory-level advantages to policy updates requires aggregating token-level probabilities within each sequence. Relying on a fixed aggregation mechanism for this step fundamentally limits the algorithm's adaptability. Empirically, we observe a critical trade-off: certain fixed aggregations frequently suffer from training collapse, while others fail to yield satisfactory performance. To resolve this, we propose \textbf{HölderPO}, a generalised policy optimisation framework unifying token-level probability aggregation via the Hölder mean. By explicitly modulating the parameter $p$, our framework provides continuous control over the trade-off between gradient concentration and variance bounds. Theoretically, we prove that a larger $p$ concentrates the gradient to amplify sparse learning signals, whereas a smaller $p$ strictly bounds gradient variance. Because no static configuration can universally resolve this concentration-stability trade-off, we instantiate the framework with a dynamic annealing algorithm that progressively schedules $p$ across the training lifecycle. Extensive evaluations demonstrate superior stability and convergence over existing baselines. Specifically, our approach achieves a state-of-the-art average accuracy of $54.9\%$ across multiple mathematical benchmarks, yielding a substantial $7.2\%$ relative gain over standard GRPO and secures an exceptional $93.8\%$ success rate on ALFWorld.

Unsupervised Online Channel Estimation for High-Mobility OFDM via Implicit Neural Representation

Accurate channel estimation remains challenging in high-mobility wireless systems because Doppler shifts induce severe inter-carrier interference (ICI) in Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM). We propose an unsupervised online channel estimation framework based on Implicit Neural Representation (INR). Unlike discrete-grid estimators, the proposed method decouples channel representation from the OFDM sampling resolution by modeling the time-varying frequency-selective channel as a continuous function of time-frequency coordinates. A Sinusoidal Representation Network (SIREN) with Gaussian Fourier feature mapping captures fine-grained channel variations and high-frequency details without offline pre-training or labeled data. For each received slot, the network parameters are updated by per-slot online fitting that minimizes a physics-aware ICI loss, while a confidence-aware decision-directed loop balances reliable pilots and dynamically harvested pseudo-pilots. Simulations in realistic Vehicle-to-Everything (V2X) environments show that the proposed method achieves near-optimal link-level reliability, significantly outperforming Least Squares (LS) and robust Linear Minimum Mean Square Error (LMMSE) estimators. Compared with supervised deep learning baselines, it also exhibits strong out-of-distribution (OOD) robustness under environmental distribution shifts, establishing an adaptable data-efficient physical-layer paradigm.

SkillMAS: Skill Co-Evolution with LLM-based Multi-Agent System

Large language model (LLM) agent systems are increasingly expected to improve after deployment, but existing work often decouples two adaptation targets: skill evolution and multi-agent system (MAS) restructuring. This separation can create organization bottlenecks, context pressure, and mis-specialization. We present SkillMAS, a non-parametric framework for adaptive specialization in multi-agent systems that couples skill evolution with MAS restructuring. SkillMAS uses Utility Learning to assign credit from verified execution traces, bounded skill evolution to refine reusable procedures without unfiltered library growth, and evidence-gated MAS restructuring when retained failures and Executor Utility indicate a structural mismatch. Across embodied manipulation, command-line execution, and retail workflows, SkillMAS is competitive under the reported harnesses while clarifying how post-deployment specialization is attributed, updated, and applied.

Beyond Static Collision Handling: Adaptive Semantic ID Learning for Multimodal Recommendation at Industrial Scale

Modern recommendation systems involve massive catalogs of multimodal items, where scalable item identification must balance compactness, semantic fidelity, and downstream effectiveness. Semantic IDs (SIDs) address this need by representing items as short discrete token sequences derived from multimodal signals, providing a compact interface for retrieval, ranking, and generative recommendation. However, effective SID learning is hindered by collisions, where different items are assigned identical or highly confusable codes. Existing methods mainly rely on improved quantization or fixed overlap regularization, but they do not adaptively distinguish whether an overlap should be suppressed or preserved. We propose AdaSID, an adaptive semantic ID learning framework for recommendation. AdaSID regulates SID overlaps through a two-stage process. First, it relaxes repulsion for observed overlaps when the involved items are semantically compatible, preserving admissible sharing rather than uniformly separating all collisions. Second, it allocates the remaining regulation pressure according to local collision load and training progress, strengthening control in congested regions while gradually rebalancing optimization toward recommendation alignment. This design adaptively decides which overlaps to penalize, how strongly to regulate them, and when to shift the learning focus. Extensive offline and online experiments validate AdaSID. On two public benchmarks, AdaSID improves Recall and NDCG by about 4.5% on average over strong baselines, while improving codebook utilization and SID diversity. In Kuaishou e-commerce, an online A/B test on short-video retrieval covering tens of millions of users achieves statistically significant gains, including a 0.98% GMV improvement, and industrial ranking evaluation shows consistent AUC improvements.

From Skills to Talent: Organising Heterogeneous Agents as a Real-World Company

Individual agent capabilities have advanced rapidly through modular skills and tool integrations, yet multi-agent systems remain constrained by fixed team structures, tightly coupled coordination logic, and session-bound learning. We argue that this reflects a deeper absence: a principled organisational layer that governs how a workforce of agents is assembled, governed, and improved over time, decoupled from what individual agents know. To fill this gap, we introduce \emph{OneManCompany (OMC)}, a framework that elevates multi-agent systems to the organisational level. OMC encapsulates skills, tools, and runtime configurations into portable agent identities called \emph{Talents}, orchestrated through typed organisational interfaces that abstract over heterogeneous backends. A community-driven \emph{Talent Market} enables on-demand recruitment, allowing the organisation to close capability gaps and reconfigure itself dynamically during execution. Organisational decision-making is operationalised through an \emph{Explore-Execute-Review} ($\text{E}^2$R) tree search, which unifies planning, execution, and evaluation in a single hierarchical loop: tasks are decomposed top-down into accountable units and execution outcomes are aggregated bottom-up to drive systematic review and refinement. This loop provides formal guarantees on termination and deadlock freedom while mirroring the feedback mechanisms of human enterprises. Together, these contributions transform multi-agent systems from static, pre-configured pipelines into self-organising and self-improving AI organisations capable of adapting to open-ended tasks across diverse domains. Empirical evaluation on PRDBench shows that OMC achieves an $84.67\%$ success rate, surpassing the state of the art by $15.48$ percentage points, with cross-domain case studies further demonstrating its generality.

TingIS: Real-time Risk Event Discovery from Noisy Customer Incidents at Enterprise Scale

Real-time detection and mitigation of technical anomalies are critical for large-scale cloud-native services, where even minutes of downtime can result in massive financial losses and diminished user trust. While customer incidents serve as a vital signal for discovering risks missed by monitoring, extracting actionable intelligence from this data remains challenging due to extreme noise, high throughput, and semantic complexity of diverse business lines. In this paper, we present TingIS, an end-to-end system designed for enterprise-grade incident discovery. At the core of TingIS is a multi-stage event linking engine that synergizes efficient indexing techniques with Large Language Models (LLMs) to make informed decisions on event merging, enabling the stable extraction of actionable incidents from just a handful of diverse user descriptions. This engine is complemented by a cascaded routing mechanism for precise business attribution and a multi-dimensional noise reduction pipeline that integrates domain knowledge, statistical patterns, and behavioral filtering. Deployed in a production environment handling a peak throughput of over 2,000 messages per minute and 300,000 messages per day, TingIS achieves a P90 alert latency of 3.5 minutes and a 95\% discovery rate for high-priority incidents. Benchmarks constructed from real-world data demonstrate that TingIS significantly outperforms baseline methods in routing accuracy, clustering quality, and Signal-to-Noise Ratio.

Discrete Preference Learning for Personalized Multimodal Generation

The emergence of generative models enables the creation of texts and images tailored to users' preferences. Existing personalized generative models have two critical limitations: lacking a dedicated paradigm for accurate preference modeling, and generating unimodal content despite real-world multimodal-driven user interactions. Therefore, we propose personalized multimodal generation, which captures modal-specific preferences via a dedicated preference model from multimodal interactions, and then feeds them into downstream generators for personalized multimodal content. However, this task presents two challenges: (1) Gap between continuous preferences from dedicated modeling and discrete token inputs intrinsic to generator architectures; (2) Potential inconsistency between generated images and texts. To tackle these, we present a two-stage framework called Discrete Preference learning for Personalized Multimodal Generation (DPPMG). In the first stage, to accurately learn discrete modal-specific preferences, we introduce a modal-specific graph neural network (a dedicated preference model) to learn users' modal-specific preferences, which preferences are then quantized into discrete preference tokens. In the second stage, the discrete modal-specific preference tokens are injected into downstream text and image generators. To further enhance cross-modal consistency while preserving personalization, we design a cross-modal consistent and personalized reward to fine-tune token-associated parameters. Extensive experiments on two real-world datasets demonstrate the effectiveness of our model in generating personalized and consistent multimodal content.

R3D: Revisiting 3D Policy Learning

3D policy learning promises superior generalization and cross-embodiment transfer, but progress has been hindered by training instabilities and severe overfitting, precluding the adoption of powerful 3D perception models. In this work, we systematically diagnose these failures, identifying the omission of 3D data augmentation and the adverse effects of Batch Normalization as primary causes. We propose a new architecture coupling a scalable transformer-based 3D encoder with a diffusion decoder, engineered specifically for stability at scale and designed to leverage large-scale pre-training. Our approach significantly outperforms state-of-the-art 3D baselines on challenging manipulation benchmarks, establishing a new and robust foundation for scalable 3D imitation learning.

UniDoc-RL: Coarse-to-Fine Visual RAG with Hierarchical Actions and Dense Rewards

Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) extends Large Vision-Language Models (LVLMs) with external visual knowledge. However, existing visual RAG systems typically rely on generic retrieval signals that overlook the fine-grained visual semantics essential for complex reasoning. To address this limitation, we propose UniDoc-RL, a unified reinforcement learning framework in which an LVLM agent jointly performs retrieval, reranking, active visual perception, and reasoning. UniDoc-RL formulates visual information acquisition as a sequential decision-making problem with a hierarchical action space. Specifically, it progressively refines visual evidence from coarse-grained document retrieval to fine-grained image selection and active region cropping, allowing the model to suppress irrelevant content and attend to information-dense regions. For effective end-to-end training, we introduce a dense multi-reward scheme that provides task-aware supervision for each action. Based on Group Relative Policy Optimization (GRPO), UniDoc-RL aligns agent behavior with multiple objectives without relying on a separate value network. To support this training paradigm, we curate a comprehensive dataset of high-quality reasoning trajectories with fine-grained action annotations. Experiments on three benchmarks demonstrate that UniDoc-RL consistently surpasses state-of-the-art baselines, yielding up to 17.7% gains over prior RL-based methods.
