Abstract:We study Gaussian regression over the explicit vector-valued Parhi--Nowak deep-RBV^2 architecture with depth L, width w, layer-sum variation budget A, and output bound B. For this O(L w^2)-parameterized architecture, the known lower and upper bounds differ by one factor of depth. We construct a local packing showing that the quadratic depth dependence is intrinsic under an explicit sample-size-dependent radius condition. The packing has log-cardinality Omega(L^2 w^2 log w); its codewords lie in an O(lambda) L^2 ball and are pairwise Omega(lambda)-separated. The main ingredients are a bias-corrected bounded-coefficient approximation theorem and balanced amplification: multiplying a depth-D ReLU network by q can be implemented using one constant channel so that every coefficient grows by only q^(1/D). Translation to vector-valued RBV^2 blocks then has layer-sum cost O(D w^2 q^(1/D)). Gaussian Fano yields a radius-explicit lower bound governed by the output, testing, and representation scales. Under A=B=R, sigma proportional to R, and the stated radius condition, this gives minimax risk at least of order L^2 w^2 log(w) R^2/n. A pseudodimension-based finite-net upper bound gives O-tilde(L^2 w^2 R^2/n) for unbounded Gaussian responses. Thus the minimax risk has quadratic polynomial dependence on depth, up to logarithmic factors, and exhibits a transition to representation-limited behavior at smaller radius.
Abstract:The prevailing recipe for Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models couples a pretrained VLM with a separately trained flow-matching action expert. This makes the VLM a context encoder rather than a decision-maker. We introduce G0.5, a pretrained autoregressive VLA in which a single transformer decoder emits reasoning and action tokens under a single objective. Three components make this tractable at foundation-model scale: a learnable cross-embodiment action tokenizer that maps heterogeneous robot actions into a shared vocabulary; a native chain-of-thought stream interleaving task decomposition, object grounding, and action hints with action tokens; and a visual memory module that injects multi-second history through the vision encoder. Because reasoning and action share a single set of weights, the pretrained VLM's capabilities carry over to physical behavior: the model follows instructions closely, and prompts directly steer action granularity, task horizon, and out-of-distribution scene handling without further training. Pretrained on a large collection of robot datasets together with VQA samples, G0.5 surpasses state-of-the-art models across 7 independent regimes: real-world fine-tuning on R1lite and R1pro robots (76.7\% vs.\ 53.3\% for $π_{0.5}$ and 24.4\% for GR00T-N1.7), the 2025 BEHAVIOR Challenge on 50 long-horizon household mobile manipulation tasks using a generalist policy (31.4\% vs.\ 26.3\% for $π_{0.5}$ and 26.1\% for the challenge winner), DROID post-training followed by zero-shot transfer to an unseen environment and objects (82.5\%), a language-following Pick-and-Place benchmark, LIBERO (98.9\%), RoboTwin 2.0 (93.3\%), and SimplerEnv-Bridge (87.3\%).
Abstract:Evolutionary model merging provides a powerful framework for the automated, training-free composition of LLMs through parameter-space search. However, existing methods predominantly rely on stochastic, hand-crafted operators that overlook the underlying performance landscape of the coefficient space. We propose Evolutionary Generative Merging (EvoGM), a framework that transcends manual heuristics by employing learnable generative modeling to optimize merging coefficients. Specifically, EvoGM features a dual-generator architecture with cycle-consistent learning to adaptively sample and refine promising merging candidates. By constructing winner-loser pairs from historical search trajectories, our framework effectively captures high-performance parameter distributions and maximizes data efficiency. This generative process is seamlessly integrated into a multi-round evolutionary pipeline, where elite merged models iteratively serve as new expert foundations. Extensive experiments across diverse benchmarks demonstrate that EvoGM significantly outperforms state-of-the-art baselines, exhibiting robust performance on both seen and unseen tasks.

Abstract:In point clouds, noise directly perturbs point coordinates that encode both spatial location and geometry, making one-to-one correspondence construction more challenging than in images. Existing methods impose statistical mappings across noisy variants via noise or optimal transport, but suffer from correspondence ambiguity. In this work, we propose Self-Induced Mirror-Point Consistency (SIMPC) to learn deterministic correspondences between points and the underlying surface in an unsupervised manner. For each noisy point, SIMPC generates a mirror-point on the opposite side of the underlying surface, guided by geometric priors during the denoising process. By encouraging consistency between the denoising targets of the original point and its mirror counterpart, SIMPC effectively localizes the position of underlying surface. Extensive experiments on synthetic and real-world datasets demonstrate that SIMPC significantly outperforms state-of-the-art unsupervised methods and surpasses several strong supervised counterparts.
Abstract:Long-horizon LLM agents leave traces that could become reusable experience, but raw trajectories are noisy and hard to govern. We treat Agent Skills as an experience schema that couples executable scripts, with non-executable guidance on procedures. Yet open skill ecosystems contain redundant, uneven, environment-sensitive artifacts, and indiscriminate updates can pollute future context. We present SkillsVote, a lifecycle-governance framework for Agent Skills from collection and recommendation to evolution. SkillsVote profiles a million-scale open-source corpus for environment requirements, quality, and verifiability, then synthesizes tasks for verifiable skills. Before execution, SkillsVote performs agentic library search over structured skill library to expose instructional skill context. After execution, it decomposes trajectories into skill-linked subtasks, attributes outcomes to skill use, agent exploration, environment, and result signals, and admits only successful reusable discoveries to evidence-gated updates. In our evaluation, offline evolution improves GPT-5.2 on Terminal-Bench 2.0 by up to 7.9 pp, while online evolution improves SWE-Bench Pro by up to 2.6 pp. Overall, governed external skill libraries can improve frozen agents without model updates when systems control exposure, credit, and preservation.
Abstract:GUI grounding, which localizes interface elements from screenshots given natural language queries, remains challenging for small icons and dense layouts. Test-time zoom-in methods improve localization by cropping and re-running inference at higher resolution, but apply cropping uniformly across all instances with fixed crop sizes, ignoring whether the model is actually uncertain on each case. We propose \textbf{UI-Zoomer}, a training-free adaptive zoom-in framework that treats both the trigger and scale of zoom-in as a prediction uncertainty quantification problem. A confidence-aware gate fuses spatial consensus among stochastic candidates with token-level generation confidence to selectively trigger zoom-in only when localization is uncertain. When triggered, an uncertainty-driven crop sizing module decomposes prediction variance into inter-sample positional spread and intra-sample box extent, deriving a per-instance crop radius via the law of total variance. Extensive experiments on ScreenSpot-Pro, UI-Vision, and ScreenSpot-v2 demonstrate consistent improvements over strong baselines across multiple model architectures, achieving gains of up to +13.4\%, +10.3\%, and +4.2\% respectively, with no additional training required.
Abstract:Current Autonomous Scientific Research (ASR) systems, despite leveraging large language models (LLMs) and agentic architectures, remain constrained by fixed workflows and toolsets that prevent adaptation to evolving tasks and environments. We introduce Mimosa, an evolving multi-agent framework that automatically synthesizes task-specific multi-agent workflows and iteratively refines them through experimental feedback. Mimosa leverages the Model Context Protocol (MCP) for dynamic tool discovery, generates workflow topologies via a meta-orchestrator, executes subtasks through code-generating agents that invoke available tools and scientific software libraries, and scores executions with an LLM-based judge whose feedback drives workflow refinement. On ScienceAgentBench, Mimosa achieves a success rate of 43.1% with DeepSeek-V3.2, surpassing both single-agent baselines and static multi-agent configurations. Our results further reveal that models respond heterogeneously to multi-agent decomposition and iterative learning, indicating that the benefits of workflow evolution depend on the capabilities of the underlying execution model. Beyond these benchmarks, Mimosa modular architecture and tool-agnostic design make it readily extensible, and its fully logged execution traces and archived workflows support auditability by preserving every analytical step for inspection and potential replication. Combined with domain-expert guidance, the framework has the potential to automate a broad range of computationally accessible scientific tasks across disciplines. Released as a fully open-source platform, Mimosa aims to provide an open foundation for community-driven ASR.
Abstract:Imitation learning is a prominent paradigm for robotic manipulation. However, existing visual imitation methods map 2D image observations directly to 3D action outputs, imposing a 2D-3D mismatch that hinders spatial reasoning and degrades robustness. We present VolumeDP, a policy architecture that restores spatial alignment by explicitly reasoning in 3D. VolumeDP first lifts image features into a Volumetric Representation via cross-attention. It then selects task-relevant voxels with a learnable module and converts them into a compact set of spatial tokens, markedly reducing computation while preserving action-critical geometry. Finally, a multi-token decoder conditions on the entire token set to predict actions, thereby avoiding lossy aggregation that collapses multiple spatial tokens into a single descriptor. VolumeDP achieves a state-of-the-art average success rate of 88.8% on the LIBERO simulation benchmark, outperforming the strongest baseline by a substantial 14.8% improvement. It also delivers large performance gains over prior methods on the ManiSkill and LIBERO-Plus benchmarks. Real-world experiments further demonstrate higher success rates and robust generalization to novel spatial layouts, camera viewpoints, and environment backgrounds. Code will be released.
Abstract:Agentic artificial intelligence (AI) presents a promising pathway toward realizing autonomous and self-improving wireless network services. However, resource-constrained, widely distributed, and data-heterogeneous nature of wireless networks poses significant challenges to existing agentic AI that relies on centralized architectures, leading to high communication overhead, privacy risks, and non-independent and identically distributed (non-IID) data. Federated learning (FL) has the potential to improve the overall loop of agentic AI through collaborative local learning and parameter sharing without exchanging raw data. This paper proposes new federated agentic AI approaches for wireless networks. We first summarize fundamentals of agentic AI and mainstream FL types. Then, we illustrate how each FL type can strengthen a specific component of agentic AI's loop. Moreover, we conduct a case study on using FRL to improve the performance of agentic AI's action decision in low-altitude wireless networks (LAWNs). Finally, we provide a conclusion and discuss future research directions.
Abstract:We introduce Kimi K2.5, an open-source multimodal agentic model designed to advance general agentic intelligence. K2.5 emphasizes the joint optimization of text and vision so that two modalities enhance each other. This includes a series of techniques such as joint text-vision pre-training, zero-vision SFT, and joint text-vision reinforcement learning. Building on this multimodal foundation, K2.5 introduces Agent Swarm, a self-directed parallel agent orchestration framework that dynamically decomposes complex tasks into heterogeneous sub-problems and executes them concurrently. Extensive evaluations show that Kimi K2.5 achieves state-of-the-art results across various domains including coding, vision, reasoning, and agentic tasks. Agent Swarm also reduces latency by up to $4.5\times$ over single-agent baselines. We release the post-trained Kimi K2.5 model checkpoint to facilitate future research and real-world applications of agentic intelligence.
