StreamOV: Streaming Omni-Video Understanding via Evidence-Guided Memory and Response Triggering

While streaming omni-video understanding demands continuous perception and proactive, real-time interaction, this crucial area remains largely under-explored. Current omni-modal methods are inherently designed for offline settings, limiting their applicability in streaming scenarios due to two fundamental flaws. First, they lack robust mechanisms to manage continuously growing audio-visual context over long horizons and cannot autonomously initiate responses at opportune moments. Second, existing benchmarks are predominantly confined to offline, single-turn question answering, failing to capture continuous, multi-turn streaming interactions. To bridge these gaps, we propose StreamOV, a novel Streaming Omni-Video understanding framework for efficient online audio-visual reasoning with bounded memory and proactive response triggering. Specifically, StreamOV introduces a multimodal evidence-guided long-short term memory that condenses historical audio-visual context into compact informative evidence under a fixed budget. It further employs a hidden-state-driven trigger to decide when to respond, avoiding explicit silence-token generation and external routers. We also curate SOVBench, the first comprehensive benchmark for online, multi-turn omni-modal evaluation. Extensive experiments show that StreamOV achieves state-of-the-art performance across diverse streaming and omni-video benchmarks, demonstrating its effectiveness for both online and offline video understanding.

MCNav: Memory-Aware Dynamic Cognitive Map for Zero-shot Goal-oriented Navigation

Navigating to instance-level targets in complex environments is a challenging problem. Many existing zero-shot methods achieve strong performance by modeling the entire environment and leveraging large language models for scene understanding. However, such strategies primarily focus on exploring new regions while lacking a deeper exploitation of information from previously explored areas. Consequently, when targets are missed or misidentified within previously visited regions, navigation failures occur frequently. To address these limitations, we propose MCNav, a memory-aware navigation framework with a dynamic cognitive map. This map stores efficiently queryable information about relevant objects in explored areas. Building on this memory structure, MCNav introduces two memory-aware exploration strategies: goal re-validation, which re-assesses previously seen objects to correct matching failures, and missed goal re-exploration, which estimates the likelihood that a target is present in an explored region from contextual cues. These strategies are further stabilized by a blacklist mechanism to prevent repeated errors and a double-check mechanism for high-confidence confirmation. We evaluate MCNav on the HM3Dv1 and HM3Dv2 datasets across three different tasks, where it achieves state-of-the-art performance, particularly on the instance-level goal navigation task.

ProSoftArena: Benchmarking Hierarchical Capabilities of Multimodal Agents in Professional Software Environments

Multimodal agents are making rapid progress on general computer-use tasks, yet existing benchmarks remain largely confined to browsers and basic desktop applications, falling short in professional software workflows that dominate real-world scientific and industrial practice. To close this gap, we introduce ProSoftArena, a benchmark and platform specifically for evaluating multimodal agents in professional software environments. We establish the first capability hierarchy tailored to agent use of professional software and construct a benchmark of 436 realistic work and research tasks spanning 6 disciplines and 13 core professional applications. To ensure reliable and reproducible assessment, we build an executable real-computer environment with an execution-based evaluation framework and uniquely incorporate a human-in-the-loop evaluation paradigm. Extensive experiments show that even the best-performing agent attains only a 24.4\% success rate on L2 tasks and completely fails on L3 multi-software workflow. In-depth analysis further provides valuable insights for addressing current agent limitations and more effective design principles, paving the way to build more capable agents in professional software settings.

GeoTeacher: Geometry-Guided Semi-Supervised 3D Object Detection

Semi-supervised 3D object detection, aiming to explore unlabeled data for boosting 3D object detectors, has emerged as an active research area in recent years. Some previous methods have shown substantial improvements by either employing heterogeneous teacher models to provide high-quality pseudo labels or enforcing feature-perspective consistency between the teacher and student networks. However, these methods overlook the fact that the model usually tends to exhibit low sensitivity to object geometries with limited labeled data, making it difficult to capture geometric information, which is crucial for enhancing the student model's ability in object perception and localization. In this paper, we propose GeoTeacher to enhance the student model's ability to capture geometric relations of objects with limited training data, especially unlabeled data. We design a keypoint-based geometric relation supervision module that transfers the teacher model's knowledge of object geometry to the student, thereby improving the student's capability in understanding geometric relations. Furthermore, we introduce a voxel-wise data augmentation strategy that increases the diversity of object geometries, thereby further improving the student model's ability to comprehend geometric structures. To preserve the integrity of distant objects during augmentation, we incorporate a distance-decay mechanism into this strategy. Moreover, GeoTeacher can be combined with different SS3D methods to further improve their performance. Extensive experiments on the ONCE and Waymo datasets indicate the effectiveness and generalization of our method and we achieve the new state-of-the-art results.
