X2-N: A Transformable Wheel-legged Humanoid Robot with Dual-mode Locomotion and Manipulation

Wheel-legged robots combine the efficiency of wheeled locomotion with the versatility of legged systems, enabling rapid traversal over both continuous and discrete terrains. However, conventional designs typically employ fixed wheels as feet and limited degrees of freedom (DoFs) at the hips, resulting in reduced stability and mobility during legged locomotion compared to humanoids with flat feet. In addition, most existing platforms lack a full upper body with arms, which limits their ability to perform dexterous manipulation tasks. In this letter, we present X2-N, a high-DoF transformable robot with dual-mode locomotion and manipulation. X2-N can operate in both humanoid and wheel-legged forms and transform seamlessly between them through joint reconfiguration. We further propose a reinforcement learning (RL)-based whole-body control framework tailored to this morphology, enabling unified control across hybrid locomotion, transformation, and manipulation. We validate X2-N in a range of challenging locomotion and manipulation tasks, including dynamic skating-like motion, stair climbing and package delivery. Results demonstrate high locomotion efficiency, strong terrain adaptability, and stable loco-manipulation performance of X2-N, highlighting its potential for real-world deployment.

AgentGroupChat-V2: Divide-and-Conquer Is What LLM-Based Multi-Agent System Need

Large language model based multi-agent systems have demonstrated significant potential in social simulation and complex task resolution domains. However, current frameworks face critical challenges in system architecture design, cross-domain generalizability, and performance guarantees, particularly as task complexity and number of agents increases. We introduces AgentGroupChat-V2, a novel framework addressing these challenges through three core innovations: (1) a divide-and-conquer fully parallel architecture that decomposes user queries into hierarchical task forest structures enabling dependency management and distributed concurrent processing. (2) an adaptive collaboration engine that dynamically selects heterogeneous LLM combinations and interaction modes based on task characteristics. (3) agent organization optimization strategies combining divide-and-conquer approaches for efficient problem decomposition. Extensive experiments demonstrate AgentGroupChat-V2's superior performance across diverse domains, achieving 91.50% accuracy on GSM8K (exceeding the best baseline by 5.6 percentage points), 30.4% accuracy on competition-level AIME (nearly doubling other methods), and 79.20% pass@1 on HumanEval. Performance advantages become increasingly pronounced with higher task difficulty, particularly on Level 5 MATH problems where improvements exceed 11 percentage points compared to state-of-the-art baselines. These results confirm that AgentGroupChat-V2 provides a comprehensive solution for building efficient, general-purpose LLM multi-agent systems with significant advantages in complex reasoning scenarios.

GAPO: Learning Preferential Prompt through Generative Adversarial Policy Optimization

Recent advances in large language models have highlighted the critical need for precise control over model outputs through predefined constraints. While existing methods attempt to achieve this through either direct instruction-response synthesis or preferential response optimization, they often struggle with constraint understanding and adaptation. This limitation becomes particularly evident when handling fine-grained constraints, leading to either hallucination or brittle performance. We introduce Generative Adversarial Policy Optimization (GAPO), a novel framework that combines GAN-based training dynamics with an encoder-only reward model to progressively learn and adapt to increasingly complex constraints. GAPO leverages adversarial training to automatically generate training samples of varying difficulty while utilizing the encoder-only architecture to better capture prompt-response relationships. Extensive experiments demonstrate GAPO's superior performance across multiple benchmarks, particularly in scenarios requiring fine-grained constraint handling, where it significantly outperforms existing methods like PPO, DPO, and KTO. Our results suggest that GAPO's unique approach to preferential prompt learning offers a more robust and effective solution for controlling LLM outputs.

Recent Advances in Data-driven Intelligent Control for Wireless Communication: A Comprehensive Survey

The advent of next-generation wireless communication systems heralds an era characterized by high data rates, low latency, massive connectivity, and superior energy efficiency. These systems necessitate innovative and adaptive strategies for resource allocation and device behavior control in wireless networks. Traditional optimization-based methods have been found inadequate in meeting the complex demands of these emerging systems. As the volume of data continues to escalate, the integration of data-driven methods has become indispensable for enabling adaptive and intelligent control mechanisms in future wireless communication systems. This comprehensive survey explores recent advancements in data-driven methodologies applied to wireless communication networks. It focuses on developments over the past five years and their application to various control objectives within wireless cyber-physical systems. It encompasses critical areas such as link adaptation, user scheduling, spectrum allocation, beam management, power control, and the co-design of communication and control systems. We provide an in-depth exploration of the technical underpinnings that support these data-driven approaches, including the algorithms, models, and frameworks developed to enhance network performance and efficiency. We also examine the challenges that current data-driven algorithms face, particularly in the context of the dynamic and heterogeneous nature of next-generation wireless networks. The paper provides a critical analysis of these challenges and offers insights into potential solutions and future research directions. This includes discussing the adaptability, integration with 6G, and security of data-driven methods in the face of increasing network complexity and data volume.
