daVinci-Env: Open SWE Environment Synthesis at Scale

Training capable software engineering (SWE) agents demands large-scale, executable, and verifiable environments that provide dynamic feedback loops for iterative code editing, test execution, and solution refinement. However, existing open-source datasets remain limited in scale and repository diversity, while industrial solutions are opaque with unreleased infrastructure, creating a prohibitive barrier for most academic research groups. We present OpenSWE, the largest fully transparent framework for SWE agent training in Python, comprising 45,320 executable Docker environments spanning over 12.8k repositories, with all Dockerfiles, evaluation scripts, and infrastructure fully open-sourced for reproducibility. OpenSWE is built through a multi-agent synthesis pipeline deployed across a 64-node distributed cluster, automating repository exploration, Dockerfile construction, evaluation script generation, and iterative test analysis. Beyond scale, we propose a quality-centric filtering pipeline that characterizes the inherent difficulty of each environment, filtering out instances that are either unsolvable or insufficiently challenging and retaining only those that maximize learning efficiency. With $891K spent on environment construction and an additional $576K on trajectory sampling and difficulty-aware curation, the entire project represents a total investment of approximately $1.47 million, yielding about 13,000 curated trajectories from roughly 9,000 quality guaranteed environments. Extensive experiments validate OpenSWE's effectiveness: OpenSWE-32B and OpenSWE-72B achieve 62.4% and 66.0% on SWE-bench Verified, establishing SOTA among Qwen2.5 series. Moreover, SWE-focused training yields substantial out-of-domain improvements, including up to 12 points on mathematical reasoning and 5 points on science benchmarks, without degrading factual recall.

AGCD: Agent-Guided Cross-Modal Decoding for Weather Forecasting

Accurate weather forecasting is more than grid-wise regression: it must preserve coherent synoptic structures and physical consistency of meteorological fields, especially under autoregressive rollouts where small one-step errors can amplify into structural bias. Existing physics-priors approaches typically impose global, once-for-all constraints via architectures, regularization, or NWP coupling, offering limited state-adaptive and sample-specific controllability at deployment. To bridge this gap, we propose Agent-Guided Cross-modal Decoding (AGCD), a plug-and-play decoding-time prior-injection paradigm that derives state-conditioned physics-priors from the current multivariate atmosphere and injects them into forecasters in a controllable and reusable way. Specifically, We design a multi-agent meteorological narration pipeline to generate state-conditioned physics-priors, utilizing MLLMs to extract various meteorological elements effectively. To effectively apply the priors, AGCD further introduce cross-modal region interaction decoding that performs region-aware multi-scale tokenization and efficient physics-priors injection to refine visual features without changing the backbone interface. Experiments on WeatherBench demonstrate consistent gains for 6-hour forecasting across two resolutions (5.625 degree and 1.40625 degree) and diverse backbones (generic and weather-specialized), including strictly causal 48-hour autoregressive rollouts that reduce early-stage error accumulation and improve long-horizon stability.

RealVLG-R1: A Large-Scale Real-World Visual-Language Grounding Benchmark for Robotic Perception and Manipulation

Visual-language grounding aims to establish semantic correspondences between natural language and visual entities, enabling models to accurately identify and localize target objects based on textual instructions. Existing VLG approaches focus on coarse-grained, object-level localization, while traditional robotic grasping methods rely predominantly on geometric cues and lack language guidance, which limits their applicability in language-driven manipulation scenarios. To address these limitations, we propose the RealVLG framework, which integrates the RealVLG-11B dataset and the RealVLG-R1 model to unify real-world visual-language grounding and grasping tasks. RealVLG-11B dataset provides multi-granularity annotations including bounding boxes, segmentation masks, grasp poses, contact points, and human-verified fine-grained language descriptions, covering approximately 165,000 images, over 800 object instances, 1.3 million segmentation, detection, and language annotations, and roughly 11 billion grasping examples. Building on this dataset, RealVLG-R1 employs Reinforcement Fine-tuning on pretrained large-scale vision-language models to predict bounding boxes, segmentation masks, grasp poses, and contact points in a unified manner given natural language instructions. Experimental results demonstrate that RealVLG supports zero-shot perception and manipulation in real-world unseen environments, establishing a unified semantic-visual multimodal benchmark that provides a comprehensive data and evaluation platform for language-driven robotic perception and grasping policy learning. All data and code are publicly available at https://github.com/lif314/RealVLG-R1.

Integrated Spoofing-Robust Automatic Speaker Verification via a Three-Class Formulation and LLR

Spoofing-robust automatic speaker verification (SASV) aims to integrate automatic speaker verification (ASV) and countermeasure (CM). A popular solution is fusion of independent ASV and CM scores. To better modeling SASV, some frameworks integrate ASV and CM within a single network. However, these solutions are typically bi-encoder based, offer limited interpretability, and cannot be readily adapted to new evaluation parameters without retraining. Based on this, we propose a unified end-to-end framework via a three-class formulation that enables log-likelihood ratio (LLR) inference from class logits for a more interpretable decision pipeline. Experiments show comparable performance to existing methods on ASVSpoof5 and better results on SpoofCeleb. The visualization and analysis also prove that the three-class reformulation provides more interpretability.

Can LLMs Help Localize Fake Words in Partially Fake Speech?

Large language models (LLMs), trained on large-scale text, have recently attracted significant attention for their strong performance across many tasks. Motivated by this, we investigate whether a text-trained LLM can help localize fake words in partially fake speech, where only specific words within a speech are edited. We build a speech LLM to perform fake word localization via next token prediction. Experiments and analyses on AV-Deepfake1M and PartialEdit indicates that the model frequently leverages editing-style pattern learned from the training data, particularly word-level polarity substitutions for those two databases we discussed, as cues for localizing fake words. Although such particular patterns provide useful information in an in-domain scenario, how to avoid over-reliance on such particular pattern and improve generalization to unseen editing styles remains an open question.

Universal Speech Content Factorization

We propose Universal Speech Content Factorization (USCF), a simple and invertible linear method for extracting a low-rank speech representation in which speaker timbre is suppressed while phonetic content is preserved. USCF extends Speech Content Factorization, a closed-set voice conversion (VC) method, to an open-set setting by learning a universal speech-to-content mapping via least-squares optimization and deriving speaker-specific transformations from only a few seconds of target speech. We show through embedding analysis that USCF effectively removes speaker-dependent variation. As a zero-shot VC system, USCF achieves competitive intelligibility, naturalness, and speaker similarity compared to methods that require substantially more target-speaker data or additional neural training. Finally, we demonstrate that as a training-efficient timbre-disentangled speech feature, USCF features can serve as the acoustic representation for training timbre-prompted text-to-speech models. Speech samples and code are publicly available.

ARport: An Augmented Reality System for Markerless Image-Guided Port Placement in Robotic Surgery

Purpose: Precise port placement is a critical step in robot-assisted surgery, where port configuration influences both visual access to the operative field and instrument maneuverability. To bridge the gap between preoperative planning and intraoperative execution, we present ARport, an augmented reality (AR) system that automatically maps pre-planned trocar layouts onto the patient's body surface, providing intuitive spatial guidance during surgical preparation. Methods: ARport, implemented on an optical see-through head-mounted display (OST-HMD), operates without any external sensors or markers, simplifying setup and enhancing workflow integration. It reconstructs the operative scene from RGB, depth, and pose data captured by the OST-HMD, extracts the patient's body surface using a foundation model, and performs surface-based markerless registration to align preoperative anatomical models to the extracted patient's body surface, enabling in-situ visualization of planned trocar layouts. A demonstration video illustrating the overall workflow is available online. Results: In full-scale human-phantom experiments, ARport accurately overlaid pre-planned trocar sites onto the physical phantom, achieving consistent spatial correspondence between virtual plans and real anatomy. Conclusion: ARport provides a fully marker-free and hardware-minimal solution for visualizing preoperative trocar plans directly on the patient's body surface. The system facilitates efficient intraoperative setup and demonstrates potential for seamless integration into routine clinical workflows.

FreshMem: Brain-Inspired Frequency-Space Hybrid Memory for Streaming Video Understanding

Transitioning Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) from offline to online streaming video understanding is essential for continuous perception. However, existing methods lack flexible adaptivity, leading to irreversible detail loss and context fragmentation. To resolve this, we propose FreshMem, a Frequency-Space Hybrid Memory network inspired by the brain's logarithmic perception and memory consolidation. FreshMem reconciles short-term fidelity with long-term coherence through two synergistic modules: Multi-scale Frequency Memory (MFM), which projects overflowing frames into representative frequency coefficients, complemented by residual details to reconstruct a global historical "gist"; and Space Thumbnail Memory (STM), which discretizes the continuous stream into episodic clusters by employing an adaptive compression strategy to distill them into high-density space thumbnails. Extensive experiments show that FreshMem significantly boosts the Qwen2-VL baseline, yielding gains of 5.20%, 4.52%, and 2.34% on StreamingBench, OV-Bench, and OVO-Bench, respectively. As a training-free solution, FreshMem outperforms several fully fine-tuned methods, offering a highly efficient paradigm for long-horizon streaming video understanding.

ES-MemEval: Benchmarking Conversational Agents on Personalized Long-Term Emotional Support

Large Language Models (LLMs) have shown strong potential as conversational agents. Yet, their effectiveness remains limited by deficiencies in robust long-term memory, particularly in complex, long-term web-based services such as online emotional support. However, existing long-term dialogue benchmarks primarily focus on static and explicit fact retrieval, failing to evaluate agents in critical scenarios where user information is dispersed, implicit, and continuously evolving. To address this gap, we introduce ES-MemEval, a comprehensive benchmark that systematically evaluates five core memory capabilities: information extraction, temporal reasoning, conflict detection, abstention, and user modeling, in long-term emotional support settings, covering question answering, summarization, and dialogue generation tasks. To support the benchmark, we also propose EvoEmo, a multi-session dataset for personalized long-term emotional support that captures fragmented, implicit user disclosures and evolving user states. Extensive experiments on open-source long-context, commercial, and retrieval-augmented (RAG) LLMs show that explicit long-term memory is essential for reducing hallucinations and enabling effective personalization. At the same time, RAG improves factual consistency but struggles with temporal dynamics and evolving user states. These findings highlight both the potential and limitations of current paradigms and motivate more robust integration of memory and retrieval for long-term personalized dialogue systems.

HyLRA: Hybrid Layer Reuse Attention for Efficient Long-Context Inference

Long-context inference in Large Language Models (LLMs) is bottlenecked by the quadratic computation complexity of attention and the substantial memory footprint of Key-Value (KV) caches. While existing sparse attention mechanisms attempt to mitigate this by exploiting inherent sparsity, they often rely on rigid patterns or aggressive pruning, failing to achieve an optimal balance between efficiency and accuracy. In this paper, we introduce {\bf HyLRA} ({\bf Hy}brid {\bf L}ayer {\bf R}euse {\bf A}ttention), a novel framework driven by layer-wise sparsity profiling. Our empirical analysis uncovers a dual characteristic in attention mechanics: \textit{intra-layer sensitivity}, where specific layers necessitate full attention to prevent feature distortion, and \textit{inter-layer similarity}, where consecutive layers share substantial critical tokens. Based on these observations, HyLRA employs an offline dynamic programming approach to derive an optimal layer-wise policy. This hybrid strategy retains full attention for sensitive layers to ensure robustness, while enabling tolerant layers to bypass quadratic calculations by directly reusing top-$k$ indices from preceding layers. This approach allows LLMs to restrict computation to the most critical tokens, effectively overcoming the quadratic bottleneck of dense attention. Extensive evaluations demonstrate that HyLRA improves inference throughput by 6\%--46\% while maintaining comparable performance (with $<1\%$ accuracy degradation), consistently outperforming state-of-the-art sparse attention methods.
