Abstract:Autonomous research systems are increasingly capable of executing long research workflows, yet automation alone does not ensure that the resulting process remains scientifically grounded. We introduce AutoResearch, a two-stage system that connects Idea Generation with Idea Execution to address both how research ideas are formed and how they are reliably established through experimentation. In Idea Generation, AutoResearch continuously integrates emerging research signals with accumulated domain knowledge, identifies transferable mechanistic insights, and uses multi-model generation and cross-review to produce grounded, testable research plans. In Idea Execution, coordinated agents decompose these plans into experiments, iteratively implement and diagnose them, and employ independent evidence-based review before accepting research conclusions. Across representative settings in cross-modal retrieval, systems optimization, and benchmark-driven machine learning, AutoResearch turns generated ideas into measurable progress, detects and corrects unreliable experimental results, and makes evidence-conditioned decisions to continue, revise, or terminate research directions. For example, on RSICD benchmark, an AutoResearch-generated idea improves mean Recall from 32.84 to 34.69, while recording only 5 audit-confirmed issue events compared with 11-27 for other autonomous research systems. These results demonstrate a research process in which meaningful insight is grounded before experimentation and conclusions are grounded before acceptance: Insight In, Hallucination Out.
Abstract:Modern agent harnesses persist state across tasks and sessions through persistent carriers like memory, skills, tools, and shared artifacts. However, this capability creates delayed safety risks: attacker-influenced content can cross system boundaries and later affect the execution of a benign request. Existing benchmarks typically focus on a few carriers or harnesses, while end-to-end attack-success rates reveal little about how risks propagate. To this end, we present HarnessSafe, a benchmark comprising 328 executable cases across seven persistent-carrier families and evaluated on most mainstream agent harnesses. Each case is specified as a Persistent-Risk Lifecycle that traces attacker influence from its initial entry, through persistence across carriers and system boundaries, to a later benign trigger and an observable violation. We further introduce a multi-stage, trace-based evaluation that uses observable execution evidence to determine how far each attack chain progresses and where it is stopped. Experiments show that containment is carrier-specific and strongly depends on the harness-model configuration. Both the harness and model backend substantially shape containment outcomes, while attack success rates cannot reflect distinct lifecycle progression patterns.
Abstract:General-purpose large language model agents have achieved strong performance on tool-augmented tasks, yet they rely on assumptions break down in blockchain environments. On-chain execution is stateful, adversarial, and economically irreversible, exposing three fundamental gaps: Reactivity, Irreversibility, and Observability. We propose ChainClaw, a blockchain-native agent framework built on OpenClaw, that addresses all three gaps through a layered architecture comprising an event-driven orchestration layer, a simulation-based safety intelligence layer, and an on-chain monitoring runtime layer, unified by a cross-layer memory subsystem. ChainClaw closes the Reactivity gap via event ingestion and simulation feedback, the Irreversibility gap via a pre-execution safety pipeline with transaction simulation and action guard, and the Observability gap via an on-chain read adapter and transaction monitor. We evaluate ChainClaw on a purpose-built benchmark covering seven tasks across four categories and five dimensions. ChainClaw consistently outperforms representative baselines on both safety and task completion.
Abstract:Medical image segmentation heavily depends on labor-intensive and time-consuming pixel-level annotations. Eye tracking offers a cost-effective solution that can be naturally integrated into clinical workflows. Recorded by eye trackers, gaze conveys the spatial regions of clinicians' attention through fixations and the temporal context of clinicians' progressive visual perception from trajectories. Nevertheless, effective modeling of temporal trajectories remains challenging, and noise in gaze caused by exploratory fixations greatly limits segmentation performance. To overcome these limitations, we propose the Trajectory-guided Uncertainty-aware Network (TrailNet), which exploits gaze-supervised medical image segmentation from spatial semantics modeling to temporal context by jointly leveraging fixations and trajectories. Specifically, the proposed trajectory-guided spatio-temporal encoder models temporal context and establishes complementary interactions with image spatial semantics to strengthen target perception. Furthermore, the multi-scale uncertainty decoder leverages category mutual-exclusivity constraints to produce deterministic predictions and mitigate supervision uncertainty induced by noise. To enable gaze-free inference, we further introduce a cycle distillation strategy that transfers feature-level knowledge via teacher-student networks. Experimental results on two public datasets demonstrate that TrailNet outperforms state-of-the-art methods, achieving Dice scores of 81.25% and 81.85%, respectively.
Abstract:Existing public live streaming datasets suffer from three major limitations: they provide limited access to temporally evolving multimodal live content, overlook users' cross-domain interactions between short videos and live streams, and contain only implicit behavioral signals without explicit feedback that captures users' perceived content quality and satisfaction. These limitations prevent existing benchmarks from faithfully reflecting real-world live streaming scenarios and hinder comprehensive research on live streaming recommendation. To address these limitations, we introduce KuaiLive-M3, a multi-modal, multi-domain, and multi-feedback dataset for live streaming recommendation, collected from Kuaishou, a leading live streaming and short video platform in China. KuaiLive-M3 covers 21,938 users and contains 35 million live streaming interactions and 111 million short video interactions, with fine-grained timestamps and diverse user behaviors. It further provides approximately 88 million timestamped segment-level multi-modal embeddings that capture the temporal evolution of live streaming content, as well as 25,403 questionnaire-based feedback records that bridge implicit user behaviors and explicit user preferences. Based on these unique signals, we establish benchmarks for cross-domain recommendation, live stream highlight prediction, and questionnaire-enhanced recommendation. Extensive experiments with representative baselines demonstrate that KuaiLive-M3 provides a challenging and realistic benchmark for future live streaming recommendation research. The results further highlight the importance of modeling temporally evolving content, transferring user preferences across domains, and bridging the gap between implicit behaviors and explicit user feedback. The dataset and benchmark code are publicly available at https://imgkkk574.github.io/KuaiLive-M3/.
Abstract:Autonomous robotic craniotomy requires continuous regulation of tool-tissue interactions to mitigate mechanical overload and thermal damage while maintaining surgical efficiency. However, this process is inherently partially observable due to unknown, time-varying tissue properties and the inability to directly measure cutting temperatures under physical occlusion. To address these challenges, we propose RL-MACRO, a cybernetic closed-loop intelligence framework that couples multimodal perception, adaptive decision-making, and robotic execution. This framework empowers the surgical robot to autonomously perceive inaccessible states from partial sensory feedback and dynamically optimize its behaviors under uncertain environment. A CNN-LSTM observer first fuses force and sound feedback to reconstruct the hidden temperature state (R^2=0.939, MAE = 1.717 deg C). This reconstructed temperature, alongside multi-sensor features, forms the belief state for an offline Implicit Q-Learning (IQL) policy. A novel dual-head Actor dynamically coordinates the feed rate, spindle speed, and cutting depth to optimize efficiency within strict safety bounds. These decisions are seamlessly translated into spatial motions via online trajectory re-planning and velocity servoing. Experiments on bovine ribs and six ex vivo goat skulls validate the system's robust perception, adaptive recovery from force/temperature excursions, and smooth execution on irregular surfaces, establishing a data-driven cybernetic paradigm for safe and efficient autonomous bone cutting.
Abstract:Manual craniotomy is a high-risk, skill-dependent procedure associated with surgeon fatigue and potential dural injury. While robotic approaches have improved safety, existing open-loop systems rely solely on preoperative images and cannot compensate for intraoperative registration errors or tissue deformation. To address this, we propose a human-inspired closed-loop robotic craniotomy framework that intelligently integrates preoperative planning with intraoperative execution. An adaptive dual-contour fusion algorithm is employed to generate trajectories that conform to complex cranial geometries while maintaining a consistent tool-bone relative pose. For intraoperative perception, a multimodal two-stage cross-modal attention block (CMA)-temporal convolutional network (TCN)-Transformer network combined with an adaptive Bayesian filter fuses force and acoustic signals to achieve robust breakthrough detection under varying bone conditions. Upon detection, an in-situ projection-based trajectory adjustment strategy dynamically compensates for depth deviations, enabling safe residual bone isolation. Experiments on bovine ribs show a breakthrough prediction accuracy of 97%, a detection latency of 0.048 +/- 0.097 s, and a maximum overshoot of 0.29 mm. All four ex vivo cranial experiments were successfully completed without dural injury. These results demonstrate that the proposed cybernetic framework enables safe and autonomous craniotomy with highly effective closed-loop control.
Abstract:Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) systems are widely adopted in question answering, yet they often fail to satisfy complex multi-constraint queries, leading to constraint violations, factual inconsistencies, or hallucinations. We present Structure-Driven RAG System for Multi-Constraint Queries(MC-RAG), a structure-driven RAG system that reformulates retrieval as a subgraph matching problem over a knowledge graph. By integrating semantic and structural embeddings with path-level indexing, MC-RAG performs interpretable, structure-aware, and constraint-consistent retrieval and generation. During the demonstration, participants can input medical or encyclopedic multi-constraint queries, visualize how the system parses constraints, performs structural matching, and generates answers, thereby experiencing an end-to-end, interactive, and explainable RAG pipeline.

Abstract:Quantitative 3D spatial reasoning from egocentric RGB-D video is a critical capability for next-generation wearable assistants. Yet existing benchmarks do not reflect the challenges of handling (1) natural egocentric video, (2) posed RGB-D video inputs, and (3) challenging quantitative 3D spatial reasoning Q&A. To fill this gap, we introduce R3D-Bench (Reasoning in 3D), a benchmark of 3,033 quantitative spatial reasoning questions across 15 types -- spanning multiple-choice, distance-based, and volumetric reasoning questions -- built on top of 57 egocentric video sequences from Aria Digital Twin. To set a strong baseline on this dataset, we introduce R3D, a model-agnostic spatial tool-calling framework. In contrast to existing approaches that directly embed 3D information into the model's input representation, R3D constructs a 3D scene from video using segmentation and depth-lifted object representations. It provides this information to an LLM through eight composable spatial tools. On R3D-Bench, R3D with Qwen3-VL 235B achieves 73.5% mean relative accuracy, substantially outperforming the best depth-enabled baseline (CuTR+Tools, 61.9%) and the best RGB-only baseline (Gemini 3 Flash, 46.5%).
Abstract:Existing digitization of buildings with reflective glass facades suffers from geometric reconstruction distortion, unrealistic view-dependent texture rendering, and difficulties in object-based semantic enhancement. Therefore, we propose RefGlass-GS, a fusion framework that enables end-to-end UAV-based photorealistic, semantic, and interactive digitization of reflective glass facades. The contributions include: (1) proposing an individual glass panel segmentation method based on maximum a posteriori estimation with structural regularities, robust to severe reflection and background interference; (2) formulating a UAV viewpoint planning optimization function that maximizes the coverage of view-dependent appearance for sufficient data capture; (3) developing an optimized Gaussian Splatting framework with a Reflection MLP, a novel deferred shading function, and two enhanced regularization terms for effective modeling of high-frequency near-field reflections; (4) introducing a standardized data organization paradigm for structuring GS-based representations into object-based models, facilitating interactive facility management on digital twin platforms. Experiments on real-world reflective glass facade scenes validate the effectiveness and superiority of the proposed method. Specifically, the glass panel segmentation achieves an improvement of 0.1927 in mIoU over SOTA methods, and only our method enables instance-level panel extraction. The UAV view planning improves novel view synthesis for reflective facades by 13.15 dB in PSNR compared to commercially used nap-of-the-object planning methods. The RefGlass-GS modeling outperforms SOTA Gaussian Splatting approaches for reflective scenes with an average improvement of 5.08 dB in PSNR.
