MIRA: A Bilingual Benchmark for Medical Information Response Audit

Large language models (LLMs) are increasingly used to provide public-facing health information, yet existing safety evaluations overlook whether responses preserve comparable medical information across different user phrasings of the same question. To address this, we introduce the Medical Information Response Audit (MIRA), a bilingual, controlled benchmark that assesses whether LLMs provide comparable medical information across user-side language, register, and health literacy signals. MIRA contains 4,320 prompts built from 60 medically reviewed, low-risk health questions. Across five mainstream LLMs, models answered all medical questions, but responses to low health-literacy signals consistently omitted more key information, provided fewer concrete next steps, and offered less support for independent judgment. We term this pattern Differential Information Dilution (DID). Language effects are model-specific rather than uniformly worse for non-English prompts. A comparison with 300 real-world health queries provides preliminary evidence of rank-order validity. A knowledge-guided mitigation prompt reduces information dilution for most models, with the largest reductions in underinformative simplification observed for Claude (~8%) and Qwen (~6%).

Flat-Pack Bench: Evaluating Spatio-Temporal Understanding in Large Vision-Language Models through Furniture Assembly

The emergence of Large Vision-Language Models (LVLMs) has significantly advanced video understanding capabilities. However, existing benchmarks focus predominantly on coarse-grained tasks such as action segmentation, classification, captioning, and retrieval. Furthermore, these benchmarks often rely on entities that can be easily identified verbally, like household objects, animals, human subjects, etc., limiting their applicability to complex, in-the-wild video scenarios. But, many applications such as furniture assembly, cooking, etc., require step-by-step fine-grained spatio-temporal understanding of the video, which is not sufficiently evaluated in current benchmarks. To address this gap, we introduce Flat-Pack Bench, a novel benchmark centered on furniture assembly tasks. Our benchmark evaluates LVLMs on nuanced tasks, including temporal ordering of assembly actions, temporal localization of assembly state, understanding part mating, and tracking, using multiple-choice questions paired with visual prompts highlighting relevant parts as references for fine-grained questions. Our experiments reveal that state-of-the-art LVLMs struggle significantly with fine-grained spatio-temporal reasoning, highlighting their limitations in effectively leveraging temporal information from videos, limited tracking ability, and understanding of spatial interactions like physical contact.

Kwai Summary Attention Technical Report

Long-context ability, has become one of the most important iteration direction of next-generation Large Language Models, particularly in semantic understanding/reasoning, code agentic intelligence and recommendation system. However, the standard softmax attention exhibits quadratic time complexity with respect to sequence length. As the sequence length increases, this incurs substantial overhead in long-context settings, leading the training and inference costs of extremely long sequences deteriorate rapidly. Existing solutions mitigate this issue through two technique routings: i) Reducing the KV cache per layer, such as from the head-level compression GQA, and the embedding dimension-level compression MLA, but the KV cache remains linearly dependent on the sequence length at a 1:1 ratio. ii) Interleaving with KV Cache friendly architecture, such as local attention SWA, linear kernel GDN, but often involve trade-offs among KV Cache and long-context modeling effectiveness. Besides the two technique routings, we argue that there exists an intermediate path not well explored: {Maintaining a linear relationship between the KV cache and sequence length, but performing semantic-level compression through a specific ratio $k$}. This $O(n/k)$ path does not pursue a ``minimum KV cache'', but rather trades acceptable memory costs for complete, referential, and interpretable retention of long distant dependency. Motivated by this, we propose Kwai Summary Attention (KSA), a novel attention mechanism that reduces sequence modeling cost by compressing historical contexts into learnable summary tokens.

Self-Improving 4D Perception via Self-Distillation

Large-scale multi-view reconstruction models have made remarkable progress, but most existing approaches still rely on fully supervised training with ground-truth 3D/4D annotations. Such annotations are expensive and particularly scarce for dynamic scenes, limiting scalability. We propose SelfEvo, a self-improving framework that continually improves pretrained multi-view reconstruction models using unlabeled videos. SelfEvo introduces a self-distillation scheme using spatiotemporal context asymmetry, enabling self-improvement for learning-based 4D perception without external annotations. We systematically study design choices that make self-improvement effective, including loss signals, forms of asymmetry, and other training strategies. Across eight benchmarks spanning diverse datasets and domains, SelfEvo consistently improves pretrained baselines and generalizes across base models (e.g. VGGT and $π^3$), with significant gains on dynamic scenes. Overall, SelfEvo achieves up to 36.5% relative improvement in video depth estimation and 20.1% in camera estimation, without using any labeled data. Project Page: https://self-evo.github.io/.

Kelix Technical Report

Autoregressive large language models (LLMs) scale well by expressing diverse tasks as sequences of discrete natural-language tokens and training with next-token prediction, which unifies comprehension and generation under self-supervision. Extending this paradigm to multimodal data requires a shared, discrete representation across modalities. However, most vision-language models (VLMs) still rely on a hybrid interface: discrete text tokens paired with continuous Vision Transformer (ViT) features. Because supervision is largely text-driven, these models are often biased toward understanding and cannot fully leverage large-scale self-supervised learning on non-text data. Recent work has explored discrete visual tokenization to enable fully autoregressive multimodal modeling, showing promising progress toward unified understanding and generation. Yet existing discrete vision tokens frequently lose information due to limited code capacity, resulting in noticeably weaker understanding than continuous-feature VLMs. We present Kelix, a fully discrete autoregressive unified model that closes the understanding gap between discrete and continuous visual representations.

Unified Multi-Site Multi-Sequence Brain MRI Harmonization Enriched by Biomedical Semantic Style

Aggregating multi-site brain MRI data can enhance deep learning model training, but also introduces non-biological heterogeneity caused by site-specific variations (e.g., differences in scanner vendors, acquisition parameters, and imaging protocols) that can undermine generalizability. Recent retrospective MRI harmonization seeks to reduce such site effects by standardizing image style (e.g., intensity, contrast, noise patterns) while preserving anatomical content. However, existing methods often rely on limited paired traveling-subject data or fail to effectively disentangle style from anatomy. Furthermore, most current approaches address only single-sequence harmonization, restricting their use in real-world settings where multi-sequence MRI is routinely acquired. To this end, we introduce MMH, a unified framework for multi-site multi-sequence brain MRI harmonization that leverages biomedical semantic priors for sequence-aware style alignment. MMH operates in two stages: (1) a diffusion-based global harmonizer that maps MR images to a sequence-specific unified domain using style-agnostic gradient conditioning, and (2) a target-specific fine-tuner that adapts globally aligned images to desired target domains. A tri-planar attention BiomedCLIP encoder aggregates multi-view embeddings to characterize volumetric style information, allowing explicit disentanglement of image styles from anatomy without requiring paired data. Evaluations on 4,163 T1- and T2-weighted MRIs demonstrate MMH's superior harmonization over state-of-the-art methods in image feature clustering, voxel-level comparison, tissue segmentation, and downstream age and site classification.

OpenOneRec Technical Report

While the OneRec series has successfully unified the fragmented recommendation pipeline into an end-to-end generative framework, a significant gap remains between recommendation systems and general intelligence. Constrained by isolated data, they operate as domain specialists-proficient in pattern matching but lacking world knowledge, reasoning capabilities, and instruction following. This limitation is further compounded by the lack of a holistic benchmark to evaluate such integrated capabilities. To address this, our contributions are: 1) RecIF Bench & Open Data: We propose RecIF-Bench, a holistic benchmark covering 8 diverse tasks that thoroughly evaluate capabilities from fundamental prediction to complex reasoning. Concurrently, we release a massive training dataset comprising 96 million interactions from 160,000 users to facilitate reproducible research. 2) Framework & Scaling: To ensure full reproducibility, we open-source our comprehensive training pipeline, encompassing data processing, co-pretraining, and post-training. Leveraging this framework, we demonstrate that recommendation capabilities can scale predictably while mitigating catastrophic forgetting of general knowledge. 3) OneRec-Foundation: We release OneRec Foundation (1.7B and 8B), a family of models establishing new state-of-the-art (SOTA) results across all tasks in RecIF-Bench. Furthermore, when transferred to the Amazon benchmark, our models surpass the strongest baselines with an average 26.8% improvement in Recall@10 across 10 diverse datasets (Figure 1). This work marks a step towards building truly intelligent recommender systems. Nonetheless, realizing this vision presents significant technical and theoretical challenges, highlighting the need for broader research engagement in this promising direction.

Federated Multi-Task Clustering

Spectral clustering has emerged as one of the most effective clustering algorithms due to its superior performance. However, most existing models are designed for centralized settings, rendering them inapplicable in modern decentralized environments. Moreover, current federated learning approaches often suffer from poor generalization performance due to reliance on unreliable pseudo-labels, and fail to capture the latent correlations amongst heterogeneous clients. To tackle these limitations, this paper proposes a novel framework named Federated Multi-Task Clustering (i.e.,FMTC), which intends to learn personalized clustering models for heterogeneous clients while collaboratively leveraging their shared underlying structure in a privacy-preserving manner. More specifically, the FMTC framework is composed of two main components: client-side personalized clustering module, which learns a parameterized mapping model to support robust out-of-sample inference, bypassing the need for unreliable pseudo-labels; and server-side tensorial correlation module, which explicitly captures the shared knowledge across all clients. This is achieved by organizing all client models into a unified tensor and applying a low-rank regularization to discover their common subspace. To solve this joint optimization problem, we derive an efficient, privacy-preserving distributed algorithm based on the Alternating Direction Method of Multipliers, which decomposes the global problem into parallel local updates on clients and an aggregation step on the server. To the end, several extensive experiments on multiple real-world datasets demonstrate that our proposed FMTC framework significantly outperforms various baseline and state-of-the-art federated clustering algorithms.

E-RayZer: Self-supervised 3D Reconstruction as Spatial Visual Pre-training

Self-supervised pre-training has revolutionized foundation models for languages, individual 2D images and videos, but remains largely unexplored for learning 3D-aware representations from multi-view images. In this paper, we present E-RayZer, a self-supervised large 3D Vision model that learns truly 3D-aware representations directly from unlabeled images. Unlike prior self-supervised methods such as RayZer that infer 3D indirectly through latent-space view synthesis, E-RayZer operates directly in 3D space, performing self-supervised 3D reconstruction with Explicit geometry. This formulation eliminates shortcut solutions and yields representations that are geometrically grounded. To ensure convergence and scalability, we introduce a novel fine-grained learning curriculum that organizes training from easy to hard samples and harmonizes heterogeneous data sources in an entirely unsupervised manner. Experiments demonstrate that E-RayZer significantly outperforms RayZer on pose estimation, matches or sometimes surpasses fully supervised reconstruction models such as VGGT. Furthermore, its learned representations outperform leading visual pre-training models (e.g., DINOv3, CroCo v2, VideoMAE V2, and RayZer) when transferring to 3D downstream tasks, establishing E-RayZer as a new paradigm for 3D-aware visual pre-training.

OneRec-V2 Technical Report

Recent breakthroughs in generative AI have transformed recommender systems through end-to-end generation. OneRec reformulates recommendation as an autoregressive generation task, achieving high Model FLOPs Utilization. While OneRec-V1 has shown significant empirical success in real-world deployment, two critical challenges hinder its scalability and performance: (1) inefficient computational allocation where 97.66% of resources are consumed by sequence encoding rather than generation, and (2) limitations in reinforcement learning relying solely on reward models. To address these challenges, we propose OneRec-V2, featuring: (1) Lazy Decoder-Only Architecture: Eliminates encoder bottlenecks, reducing total computation by 94% and training resources by 90%, enabling successful scaling to 8B parameters. (2) Preference Alignment with Real-World User Interactions: Incorporates Duration-Aware Reward Shaping and Adaptive Ratio Clipping to better align with user preferences using real-world feedback. Extensive A/B tests on Kuaishou demonstrate OneRec-V2's effectiveness, improving App Stay Time by 0.467%/0.741% while balancing multi-objective recommendations. This work advances generative recommendation scalability and alignment with real-world feedback, representing a step forward in the development of end-to-end recommender systems.
