Abstract:Enhancing the formal math reasoning capabilities of Large Language Models (LLMs) has become a key focus in both mathematical and computer science communities in recent years. While significant progress has been made in using state-of-the-art Auto-Regressive (AR) LLMs for formal theorem proving, these models suffer from inherent limitations. Their next-token prediction generation methods may yield suboptimal performance due to the challenges of long-range coherence and the compounding of errors over long sequences. Recent advancements in diffusion LLMs (dLLMs), which generate text through iterative denoising of a multi-token block, offer a promising alternative. However, the application of dLLMs to formal mathematics, where maintaining long-range coherence is critical, remains largely understudied. To address the challenges above, we propose **Diffusion-Proof**, to the best of our knowledge, the first framework to train and apply dLLMs for formal theorem proving. Our frameworks contain training and inference methods for two models. The first one is *dLLM-Prover-7B*, which performs whole-proof writing with long-range coherent tactic usage. The second one is *dLLM-Corrector-7B*, which is a novel large block diffusion-based correction model. It leverages the in-filling capabilities of dLLMs to perform local proof correction using bi-directional information. Extensive experiments demonstrate that **Diffusion-Proof** relatively significantly outperforms the AR LLM baseline trained under the same dataset. **Diffusion-Proof** achieves an absolute improvement of **1.61%** on ProofNet-Test and **6.14%** on MiniF2F-Test benchmarks compare to the baseline. Notably, **Diffusion-Proof** successfully resolves one IMO problem that more advanced thinking model DeepSeek-Prover-V2-7B could not solve, showcasing the unique advantage of dLLMs in formal theorem proving.
Abstract:Foundation models in language and multimodality achieve strong generalization by aligning heterogeneous data under a unified formulation and training at scale. In this report, we investigate whether this scaling recipe can be applied to robotic manipulation to achieve genuine generalization. This is challenging because, unlike text, manipulation data is heterogeneous by nature, expensive to collect, and narrow in diversity, making alignment and scale simultaneously difficult. We present Qwen-RobotManip, a generalizable Vision-Language-Action foundation model built on Qwen-VL. Qwen-RobotManip introduces a unified alignment framework across the representation, motion, and behavioral dimensions of manipulation, making large-scale multi-source training coherent rather than conflicting. This alignment capability in turn enables Qwen-RobotManip to absorb manipulation data at a scale that prior training regimes could not sustain. A human-to-robot synthesis pipeline converts egocentric hand demonstrations into robot trajectories across 15 platforms, and a rigorous curation pipeline harmonizes heterogeneous datasets. Using only open-source datasets and human videos without proprietary data collection, Qwen-RobotManip constructs a ~38,100-hour pretraining corpus and exhibits emergent generalization capabilities, including zero-shot instruction following, robustness to perturbations, reactive error recovery, and cross-embodiment transfer. We find that standard benchmarks fail to capture pretraining quality and instead adopt OOD settings including RoboCasa365, LIBERO-Plus, EBench, RoboTwin-Clean2Rand, RoboTwin-IF, and RoboTwin-XE. Qwen-RobotManip substantially outperforms prior state-of-the-art models, including $π$0.5, across all OOD settings, ranks 1st in RoboChallenge with a 20% relative improvement, and is validated on real-robot platforms including AgileX ALOHA, Franka, UR, and ARX.
Abstract:RS-MLLMs enable natural-language understanding and spatial reasoning over earth observation imagery. However, existing models support only a narrow range of sensor types and tasks, yielding a fragmented view of the earth and leaving cross-modal geoscientific knowledge largely unexploited. This work presents Earth-OneVision, a 2B RS-MLLM that unifies six sensor modalities (i.e., optical, SAR, infrared, multispectral, temporal, and video) and cross-sensor fusion across 9 task categories within a single autoregressive framework. Three dedicated mechanisms address three bottlenecks. Full-Granularity Vision-Language Alignment (FGVLA) aligns multi-level visual features with the multi-dimensional language space. Spatial-Linguistic Isomorphic Serialization (SLIS) unifies heterogeneous spatial outputs as autoregressive tokens. Progressive Cross-Modality Adaptation (PCMA) decomposes the compound domain gap into sequential stages, tackling the viewpoint and imaging physics gaps in turn. To support joint training, MMRS-OneVision is constructed with ~34M QA pairs spanning all six sensor modalities and cross-sensor fusion across 9 task categories, substantially exceeding existing RS multimodal instruction datasets. With only 2B parameters, Earth-OneVision achieves competitive or state-of-the-art results across extensive benchmarks, consistently matching or outperforming 4B-72B RS-MLLMs. It achieves 87.52% P@0.5 on the OPT-RSVG testset for optical visual grounding and 80.68% on the SAR VQA benchmark SARLANG-Bench, exceeding 7B models by over 7%. It further achieves 75.74% recall on the BigEarthNet-MS testset for multispectral classification, and 81.94% MCQ accuracy on EarthMind-Bench for cross-modality reasoning.
Abstract:Training vision-language web agents with multi-step RL is compute-intensive, with two dominant forms of inefficiency: idle GPUs in synchronous RL, and trajectories that use more steps and tokens than necessary. We present AsyncWebRL, which addresses both. On the system side, an asynchronous design overlaps rollout, gradient update, and policy refresh across iterations, paired with two web-agent-specific adaptations, namely an everlasting rollout pool and lightweight screenshot handling, that together deliver up to a $2.9\times$ end-to-end training-throughput speedup over the previously fastest open synchronous pipeline (WebGym). On the algorithmic side, we identify the per-trajectory normalizer $1/|τ_i|$ in multi-step GRPO as the root cause of trajectory-level and token-level inefficiency: because failures are systematically longer than successes, it down-weights the negative gradient on failed tokens, so the policy keeps producing verbose memory schemas. Replacing $1/|τ_i|$ with a constant $1/k$ breaks this coupling, contracting trajectories while preserving aggregate success. Together, these contributions set a new open-source state of the art on the WebGym out-of-distribution test split (+5.8% relative over the 42.9% prior best), with the largest gains on the harder slices (+42% relative on Medium, +48% relative on Hard).
Abstract:Hallucination has recently garnered significant research attention in Large Vision-Language Models (LVLMs). Direct Preference Optimization (DPO) aims to learn directly from the corrected preferences provided by humans, thereby addressing the hallucination issue. Despite its success, this paradigm has yet to specifically target the perceptual bottleneck in attended regions or address insufficient Visual Robustness against image degradation. Furthermore, existing preference pairs are often vision-agnostic and their inherently off-policy nature limits their effectiveness in guiding model learning. To address these challenges, we propose Perceptual Processing Direct Preference Optimization (P$^2$-DPO), a novel training paradigm in which the model generates and learns from its own preference pairs, thereby directly addressing the identified visual bottlenecks while inherently avoiding the issues of vision-agnostic and off-policy data. It introduces: (1) an on-policy preference pairs construction method targeting Focus-and-Enhance perception and Visual Robustness, and (2) a well-designed Calibration Loss to precisely align visual signals with the causal generation of text. Experimental results demonstrate that with a comparable amount of training data and cost, P$^2$-DPO outperforms strong baselines that rely on costly human feedback on benchmarks. Furthermore, evaluations on Attention Region Fidelity (ARF) and image degradation scenarios validate the effectiveness of P$^2$-DPO in addressing perceptual bottleneck in attended regions and improving Visual Robustness against degraded inputs.
Abstract:Equipping Large Language Models (LLMs) to execute reliable multi-step workflows has become a central challenge in artificial intelligence. Despite recent advances in LLMs' agentic capabilities, most agent systems still lack formal methods for specifying, verifying, and debugging their workflow and execution trajectories. This challenge mirrors a long-standing problem in mathematics, where the ambiguity of natural languages (NLs) motivates the development of formal languages (FLs). Inspired by this paradigm, we propose **Lean4Agent**, to the best of our knowledge, the first framework that uses Lean4, a dependent-type FL to model and verify agent behavior. **Lean4Agent** launches **FormalAgentLib**, an extensible Lean4 library for formally modeling and verifying agent workflows' semantic consistency under explicit assumptions, and enabling localization of execution-time failures revealed by trajectories. Building on **FormalAgentLib**, we further develop **LeanEvolve**, which applies results in **FormalAgentLib** to revise workflows to enhance its capability. Extensive experiments on a hard problem subset of SWE-Bench-Verified and a subset of ELAIP-Bench across 5 leading LLMs indicate that the verification-passing workflows outperform the failing ones by an average of **11.94%**, and **LeanEvolve** further improves SWE performance by **7.47%** on average. Furthermore, **Lean4Agent** establishes a foundation for a new field of using expressive dependent-type FL to formally model and verify agent behavior.
Abstract:Recent advancements in generative AI have led to image editing models capable of producing realistic forgeries that evade traditional image forgery localization methods, as these approaches depend on physical noise absent in synthetic data. To address this challenge, we theoretically demonstrate that the diffusion process inherently suppresses local high-frequency variance, creating a statistical energy gap that is distinguishable from the natural entropy of optical imaging. Guided by this insight, we propose FLAME, a unified framework that utilizes a LAD map to capture these intrinsic anomalies, coupled with a parameter-efficient adapter for SAM to achieve precise, pixel-level forgery localization. Furthermore, to bridge the lag between forensic benchmarks and evolving generative models, we introduce EditStream, an automated pipeline for continuous, instruction-based training data synthesis. Extensive experiments demonstrate that FLAME establishes a new state-of-the-art, significantly outperforming previous methods on AI-generated forgery datasets while effectively generalizing to unseen generative architectures. Our code is available at https://github.com/phoenixnir/FLAME.
Abstract:Building capable visual web agents requires long-horizon reasoning, precise grounding, and robust interaction with dynamic real-world websites. Despite rapid progress, the strongest systems remain largely proprietary, while open agents still depend heavily on supervised post-training over large collections of curated web trajectories. This dependence creates a major scalability bottleneck: high-quality demonstrations are expensive to collect, and static datasets offer limited coverage of the diverse, ever-changing open web. Although online RL has shown promise for text-based agents, its potential for training visual web agents directly on live websites remains largely underexplored. In this paper, we introduce OpenWebRL, an open framework for training visual web agents with online multi-turn RL on real websites. OpenWebRL covers the full training pipeline, including scalable live-browser infrastructure, supervised initialization, multimodal context management, trajectory-level success judging, and efficient multi-turn policy optimization. Using this framework, we train OpenWebRL-4B, which establishes a new open-source state of the art on challenging live-web benchmarks. With only 0.4K initialization trajectories and 2.2K open-ended RL training tasks, OpenWebRL-4B achieves 67.0% success on Online-Mind2Web and 64.0% on DeepShop, outperforming prior open agents of similar or larger scale and remaining competitive with proprietary systems including OpenAI CUA and Gemini CUA. Beyond strong benchmark performance, we systematically study the key design choices that make online RL effective for visual web agents, and analyze how RL improves agentic reasoning. Overall, our work offers a practical path toward building more capable, reproducible, and cost-efficient open web agents. We will release our training data, models, and code to support future research.
Abstract:Embodied intelligence is often studied through specialized models for individual tasks such as manipulation or navigation, resulting in fragmented capabilities and limited generalization across tasks, environments, and robot embodiments. In this work, we study whether heterogeneous embodied decision-making problems can be unified within a single vision-language-action model. We present Qwen-VLA, a unified embodied foundation model that extends Qwen's vision-language modeling stack from perception, understanding, and reasoning to continuous action and trajectory generation through a DiT-based action decoder. Qwen-VLA is trained with a large-scale joint pretraining recipe over diverse data sources, including robotics manipulation trajectories, human egocentric demonstrations, synthetic simulation data, vision-and-language navigation data, trajectory-centric supervision, and auxiliary vision-language data. To support multiple robot platforms, we introduce embodiment-aware prompt conditioning, where robot-specific textual descriptions specify the current embodiment and control convention. We further cast manipulation, navigation, and trajectory prediction into a unified action-and-trajectory prediction framework, enabling transferable visual grounding, spatial reasoning, and continuous action generation across robot morphologies, task families, and environments. Experiments on manipulation, navigation, and trajectory-centric benchmarks show consistent multi-task performance and out-of-distribution generalization under variations in scene layout, background, lighting, object configuration, and robot embodiment. Qwen-VLA-Instruct achieves 97.9% on LIBERO, 73.7% on Simpler-WidowX, 86.1%/87.2% on RoboTwin-Easy/Hard, 69.0% OSR on R2R, 59.6% SR on RxR, 76.9% average OOD success in real-world ALOHA experiments, and 26.6% zero-shot success on DOMINO dynamic manipulation.
Abstract:Computer use agents (CUAs) have shown strong potential for automating complex digital workflows, yet their training remains constrained by costly live environment interaction and limited high-quality supervision. Existing filtered behavior cloning pipelines suffer from imitation bottlenecks, including distribution shift from the expert demonstration and the absence of negative learning signals. Meanwhile, standard trajectory-level reinforcement learning struggles with sparse rewards, ambiguous credit assignment, and high infrastructure costs for long-horizon GUI interaction. In this work, we propose PRO-CUA, a process-reward optimization framework for training CUAs with iterative step-level reinforcement learning. PRO-CUA decouples on-policy environment interaction from policy optimization: the current policy collects states through live rollouts, generates diverse candidate actions for each state, receives step-level feedback from a process reward model (PRM), and is optimized with group-relative advantages. This design enables dense and flexible credit assignment without relying on golden answers or offline expert trajectories, while reducing distribution shift by training on the agent's own execution states. Experiments on live web benchmarks demonstrate the effectiveness of PRO-CUA and the reliability of PRM-guided step-level training.
