A Unified Issue Resolution Benchmark for Requirement Clarification, Planning, and Code Generation for Coding Agents

Large language model-powered coding agents are increasingly used to modify existing code repositories, for example, by adding features or fixing bugs. Yet existing repository-level benchmarks typically evaluate only whether the final patch passes tests. Satisfying a user request requires a long chain of interdependent reasoning and decisions: an agent must recover explicit and implicit requirements, formulate a repository-grounded implementation plan, and translate it into correct code. A pass/fail outcome cannot characterize how an unsuccessful trajectory diverges from the requirements and implementation process needed for a correct patch. To address this gap, we introduce SWE-RPG, a repository-level benchmark that combines executable patch evaluation with validated ground-truth references (GTs) for (1) Requirement Clarification and (2) Implementation Planning. These intermediate GTs support retrospective, GT-aligned diagnosis of complete coding-agent trajectories across clarification, planning, code generation, and artifact submission. SWE-RPG comprises 163 tasks from 31 Python and Java repositories, including 113 bug fixes and 50 feature additions. We evaluate 3 coding agents, including Claude Code, Codex, and OpenCode, with 6 large language model backends, including Claude-Sonnet-5 and GPT-5.6-Terra. Results show that the evaluated popular coding agents still struggle to implement user requests in existing repositories, achieving an average resolved rate of only 31.5% on SWE-RPG. Intermediate-GT diagnosis further identifies implicit requirement recovery as the main bottleneck, accounting for 24.5%--46.0% of agent runs. This result suggests implicit-requirement recovery as a key candidate direction for improving coding agents.

From Single- to Cross-Document: Benchmarking Multi-Granularity Event Analysis of Large Language Models

Event analysis is an essential and fundamental direction of information extraction, involving various event-centric tasks at different granularity of documents. While large language models (LLMs) have preliminarily achieved promising performance in part of these tasks individually, their capability in event analysis still lacks comprehensive understanding due to restricted document granularity, task designs, and data source of existing benchmarks. To address these limitations, we introduce MiGUE-Bench, a systematic benchmark for assessing the performance of LLMs in multi-granularity event analysis. To support large-scale evaluation, we first develop an LLM-driven self-correcting annotation framework called MiGUE-Pipeline, enabling scalable acquisition of high-quality source data of events with automatic labels. Then, we design four core tasks in our benchmark, i.e., event detection, relation reasoning, structure induction, and future prediction, to probe model competence at different levels, from atomic event details to complex cross-document narratives. Extensive experiments on state-of-the-art LLMs and retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) methods delineate the current capability boundary and identify critical deficiencies, providing insights into the future improvement of LLMs in challenging event analysis tasks.

Long-Tailed 3D Point Cloud Dataset Distillation

Dataset distillation compresses large-scale datasets into compact synthetic sets while preserving their training utility, enabling efficient 3D point cloud training. Current point cloud dataset distillation methods only tackle geometric and representation challenges while ignoring the distributional imbalance prevalent in point cloud datasets where both training and test splits follow long-tailed class distributions. To our knowledge, we present the first study on long-tailed point cloud dataset distillation. Rather than focusing primarily on geometric and representation properties or simply constructing a class-balanced synthetic set, our framework explicitly accounts for long-tailed class distributions via two core modules. First, we design Adaptive Synthetic Budgeting to allocate class-wise synthetic budgets according to class quantity and the expected benefit of additional synthetic samples. Given the allocated budgets, we further design 3D Long-Tailed Distribution Matching to optimize synthetic point clouds through Global-Local Feature Alignment and Prior-Aware Supervision. The former preserves both global class distributions and diverse intra-class structures, while the latter provides class-dependent expert supervision to keep tail-class samples recognizable while maintaining diverse head-class patterns. Extensive experiments demonstrate the effectiveness of our method, lifting classification accuracy by 7.0 points on ShapeNet55 against state-of-the-art methods.

Self-Consistent Flow: Unifying Velocity and Endpoint Prediction for Rectified Flow Models

In rectified-flow-based generative models, the neural network can be trained to predict two different targets, such as the instantaneous velocity or the data endpoint, to perform denoising. Although prior work shows that these parameterizations lead to different empirical behaviors, the mechanisms underlying their respective advantages remain to be underexplored, and how to combine them effectively is still unclear. In this work, we analyze how learning errors from different parameterizations affect the generation performance. We show that predicting the data endpoint has a clear training signal that stabilizes training, whereas predicting the velocity maintains stable sampling dynamics near the data manifold. Motivated by these insights, we propose Self-Consistent Flow (SC-Flow), a new method that unifies the benefits of both parameterizations. By employing a lightweight consistency loss, SC-Flow jointly trains a single network to predict both the local velocity and the data endpoint, and the consistency between the two predictions improves the model's performance. The method requires no major architectural changes and adds minimal computational overhead. Extensive experiments on image generation tasks demonstrate that SC-Flow substantially stabilizes optimization and improves the straightness of generation paths, leading to significant gains in generation quality over standard rectified-flow baselines.

UltraX: Refining Pre-Training Data at Scale with Adaptive Programmatic Editing

As available training data approaches its physical limit, gains from Scaling Laws have begun to diminish. Consequently, improving Large Language Models (LLMs) now depends less on data expansion and more on higher-quality data utilization. However, in the context of large-scale corpora, existing refinement methodologies face significant limitations in quality, efficiency, and reliability: Rule-based approaches are constrained by fixed heuristics and struggle with instance-level variations; LLM-based approaches improve quality but fail to meet the efficiency and reliability requirements of large-scale data processing. To address these challenges, we propose UltraX, a function-calling refinement framework for large-scale pre-training data that completes the editing function space by introducing insertion in addition to deletion and modification, enabling fine-grained instance-level editing. Specifically, UltraX builds a reliable program-supervision generation pipeline. In this pipeline, dataset-adaptive prompt optimization first guides an expert LLM to produce high-quality end-to-end refined texts, and Line Alignment Mapping and Dynamic Context Replacement then convert original-refined text pairs into structured program supervision. Meanwhile, UltraX improves supervision quality and stabilizes the training distribution with low-confidence example filtering and ratio-controlled sampling by operation combination. During inference and execution, it normalizes and validates model outputs through sliding-window prediction, global operation aggregation, and systematic post-processing, improving the stability and reliability of large-scale execution. Experiments show that UltraX achieves the highest average performance across all corpora and also matches or surpasses baselines with fewer training tokens, demonstrating stronger data efficiency and refinement reliability.

CheckRLM: Effective Knowledge-Thought Coherence Checking in Retrieval-Augmented Reasoning

Reasoning Language Models (RLMs) have significantly improved performance on complex tasks by extending the reasoning chain. However, these chains are prone to containing factual errors, particularly in knowledge-intensive tasks. To address this issue, we propose CheckRLM, a framework that improves the reliability of the reasoning process through Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) by timely checking and correcting factual errors. Specifically, CheckRLM extracts factual claims from the reasoning chain to identify and localize subtle knowledge inconsistencies during inference. Upon detection of errors, a refinement mechanism performs minimal-cost yet precise corrections by leveraging external knowledge, ensuring coherence between the reasoning chain and correct knowledge. Extensive experiments demonstrate that CheckRLM substantially outperforms existing baselines, exhibiting a strong capability to mitigate error accumulation in long-horizon reasoning with lower costs. The code and data are available at https://github.com/AI9Stars/CheckRLM.

NormAct: A Benchmark for Hidden Social Norm Compliance in Embodied Planning

Multimodal large language models (MLLMs) are increasingly deployed as embodied planners in egocentric environments, where task success requires not only achieving instructed goals but also acting in socially appropriate ways. While explicit goals may render certain actions optimal, implicit social norms often impose hidden constraints. Existing evaluations typically focus on explicit goal achievement or direct norm knowledge, seldom assessing whether planners can infer and apply these hidden constraints within action sequences. We introduce NormAct, a benchmark for embodied social-norm interactions that evaluates plans on Goal Achievement, Norm Compliance, and overall Task Success. NormAct uniquely embeds hidden norms within ordinary tasks, testing whether models can realize them without explicit instruction. Experiments with state-of-the-art MLLMs (GPT-5.4, Claude Opus 4.7, Gemini 3 Pro) reveal a significant gap: models achieve explicit goals in 67.3\% of cases, but comply with hidden norms in only 26.4\%. Cue-condition experiments indicate that this gap stems not from a lack of general social knowledge, but from challenges in activating and grounding relevant norms in context. To address this, we propose NormPerceptor, a context-conditioned cue generator that infers scene-relevant norms prior to planning, increasing Task Success from 24.2\% to 46.7\%. Our results underscore the importance of enabling embodied agents to proactively detect hidden norms, ground them in visual evidence, and integrate them as action-planning constraints. Our benchmark is publicly available at https://huggingface.co/datasets/Caleb196x/NormAct.

Brain-Adapter: A Dual-Stream Vision-Language MIL Framework for Comprehensive 3D CT Diagnosis of Acute Intracranial Pathologies

Automated diagnosis of 3D brain CT scans is essential for critical care, yet it remains challenging due to the heavy reliance on manual annotations and the limited semantic understanding of conventional models. While 2D foundation vision-language models (VLMs) have shown remarkable generalization, effectively transferring their representational power to 3D volumes remains an open problem. In this paper, we propose Brain-Adapter, a novel dual-stream multiple instance learning (MIL) framework that leverages pre-trained 2D biomedical VLMs and raw diagnostic reports for robust scan-level multi-label classification. Specifically, we introduce a Text-Conditioned Attention (TCA) mechanism, utilizing raw diagnostic sentences as semantic queries to dynamically align visual cues with specific disease concepts. Concurrently, a parallel visual MIL stream captures global scan characteristics, supervised by structured labels extracted via a Large Language Model (LLM). To ensure representation coherence, a consistency constraint enforces synergy between the two streams. During inference, an Uncertainty-Aware Refinement (UAR) module dynamically calibrates and fuses these dual-stream predictions to resolve ambiguous cases. Extensive experiments demonstrate that our method significantly outperforms state-of-the-art 3D models and standard MIL approaches. By eliminating the reliance on dense annotations, Brain-Adapter provides a highly scalable and clinically viable solution for 3D acute intracranial pathology analysis.

Beyond Reward Engineering: A Data Recipe for Long-Context Reinforcement Learning

Long-context reasoning is an essential capability for large language models, particularly when they are deployed as autonomous agents that must reason over lengthy trajectories. Reinforcement learning (RL) has recently emerged as a dominant paradigm for improving this ability, yet existing work largely focuses on reward engineering while diverse training data remains scarce. We revisit this problem from a data-centric perspective and show that a simple yet effective data recipe alone, paired with a minimal outcome-based GRPO setup, suffices to substantially improve long-context reasoning. Our recipe targets three complementary task families -- retrieval, multi-evidence synthesis, and reasoning -- for which we construct and curate eight datasets totaling ~14K examples. Experiments on three models (Qwen3-4B/8B/30B-A3B) yield average gains of +7.2/+3.2/+6.4 points across seven long-context benchmarks, surpassing prior RL training sets. We further demonstrate that these gains transfer to agentic tasks, where continuing RL training on an agent-tuned model with our data recipe improves GAIA by +4.8 and BrowseComp by +7.0 points. We will release our datasets to facilitate future research.

Rethinking the Role of Efficient Attention in Hybrid Architectures

Modern language models increasingly adopt hybrid architectures that combine full attention with efficient attention modules, such as sliding-window attention (SWA) and recurrent sequence mixers. However, how these efficient modules shape model capabilities remains poorly understood. To address this gap, we conduct a systematic analysis across hybrid architectures from three perspectives: scaling behavior, mechanism analysis, and architecture design. First, from a scaling perspective, we find that efficient-attention design primarily affects how fast long-context capability emerges, while different hybrids eventually converge to comparable long-context performance under sufficient training. Second, mechanistically, we show that long-range retrieval is mainly carried by full attention, whereas efficient attention shapes its optimization trajectory. This explains a counter-intuitive phenomenon we call Large-Window Laziness: larger SWA windows can delay the formation of retrieval heads in full-attention layers. Third, guided by this mechanism, we show that applying NoPE to only the full-attention layers of a small-window SWA hybrid substantially improves long-context performance with negligible impact on short-context performance.
