Memory-Augmented Reinforcement Learning Agent for CAD Generation

Automatic generation of computer-aided design (CAD) models is a core technology for enabling intelligence in advanced manufacturing. Existing generation methods based on large language models (LLMs) often fall short when handling complex CAD models characterized by long operation sequences, diverse operation types, and strong geometric constraints, primarily because reasoning chains break and effective error-correction mechanisms are lacking. To address this problem, this paper proposes a memory-augmented reinforcement learning framework for CAD generation agents. The framework encapsulates the underlying geometric kernel into a structured toolchain callable by the agent and builds a closed-loop mechanism of design intent understanding, global planning, execution, and multi-dimensional verification. It also designs a dual-track memory module consisting of a case library and a skill library, and proposes a dynamic utility retrieval algorithm. By introducing reinforcement learning into retrieval and policy optimization, the agent can effectively avoid retrieval traps in which examples are semantically similar but geometrically infeasible, enabling online self-correction and continual evolution without additional large-scale annotated data. Experiments show that the proposed method significantly improves both the success rate and geometric consistency on complex CAD model generation tasks.

StyleTextGen: Style-Conditioned Multilingual Scene Text Generation

Style-conditioned scene text generation faces unique challenges in extracting precise text styles from complex backgrounds and maintaining fine-grained style consistency across characters, especially for multilingual scripts. We propose StyleTextGen, a novel framework that learns to perceive and replicate visual text styles across different languages and writing systems. Our approach features three key contributions: First, we introduce a dual-branch style encoder dedicated to style modeling, yielding robust multilingual text style representations in complex real-world scenes. Second, we design a text style consistency loss that enhances style coherence and improves overall visual quality. Third, we develop a mask-guided inference strategy that ensures precise style alignment between generated and reference text. To facilitate systematic evaluation, we construct StyleText-CE, a bilingual scene text style benchmark covering both monolingual and cross-lingual settings. Extensive experiments demonstrate that StyleTextGen significantly outperforms existing methods in style consistency and cross-lingual generalization, establishing new state-of-the-art performance in multilingual style-conditioned text generation.

Causally-Grounded Dual-Path Attention Intervention for Object Hallucination Mitigation in LVLMs

Object hallucination remains a critical challenge in Large Vision-Language Models (LVLMs), where models generate content inconsistent with visual inputs. Existing language-decoder based mitigation approaches often regulate visual or textual attention independently, overlooking their interaction as two key causal factors. To address this, we propose Owl (Bi-mOdal attention reWeighting for Layer-wise hallucination mitigation), a causally-grounded framework that models hallucination process via a structural causal graph, treating decomposed visual and textual attentions as mediators. We introduce VTACR (Visual-to-Textual Attention Contribution Ratio), a novel metric that quantifies the modality contribution imbalance during decoding. Our analysis reveals that hallucinations frequently occur in low-VTACR scenarios, where textual priors dominate and visual grounding is weakened. To mitigate this, we design a fine-grained attention intervention mechanism that dynamically adjusts token- and layer-wise attention guided by VTACR signals. Finally, we propose a dual-path contrastive decoding strategy: one path emphasizes visually grounded predictions, while the other amplifies hallucinated ones -- letting visual truth shine and hallucination collapse. Experimental results on the POPE and CHAIR benchmarks show that Owl achieves significant hallucination reduction, setting a new SOTA in faithfulness while preserving vision-language understanding capability.

Bridging the Fairness Gap: Enhancing Pre-trained Models with LLM-Generated Sentences

Pre-trained language models (PLMs) are trained on data that inherently contains gender biases, leading to undesirable impacts. Traditional debiasing methods often rely on external corpora, which may lack quality, diversity, or demographic balance, affecting the effectiveness of debiasing. With the rise of large language models and their extensive knowledge, we propose enhancing fairness (Fair-Gender) in PLMs by absorbing coherent, attribute-balanced, and semantically rich sentences. However, these sentences cannot be directly used for debiasing due to alignment issues and the risk of negative transfer. We address this by applying causal analysis to estimate causal effects, filtering out unaligned sentences, and identifying aligned ones for incorporation into PLMs, thereby ensuring positive transfer. Experiments show that our approach significantly reduces gender biases in PLMs while preserving their language expressiveness.
