VibeWorlding: Can Multimodal Agents Construct 3D Open Worlds End-to-End?

Constructing an interactive 3D open world from a user query is important. However, existing methods are primarily evaluated on idealized, simple queries, making it difficult to systematically analyze and compare how multimodal agents understand user intent, use 3D tools, and reason over textual and visual 3D world information. To this end, we propose VibeWorlding, a unified framework for benchmarking and training vibe worlding agents: a multimodal agent that can autonomously infer user intent, plan scene layout, invoke 3D tools, and reflect on the multimodal feedback in a multi-turn agent-environment interaction process. To achieve this, we first build VWE-BENCH, a benchmark of 2,616 high-quality 3D assets, 323 human-annotated seed 3D worlds, and 6,828 reverse-synthesized multimodal user queries, split into verified queries with ground-truth and unverified queries with carefully designed rubrics. Moreover, we develop VibeWorlding-Gym, a joint multimodal RL post-training framework that integrates (1) a sandbox environment unifying asset retrieval, editing, and image rendering as MCP tools, and (2) a rubric-based verifier that combines physical feasibility and intent fulfillment verification, supporting both fair model evaluation and scalable multimodal RL reward service. Our experiments show that current frontier MLLMs are far from solving the vibe worlding agent task, with even GPT-5.5 and Qwen3.8-Max reaching below 60% success rate, and trace the bottleneck to precise 3D world editing. We further find that RL training can ease this weakness and enable open-source MLLMs to even surpass closed-source frontiers: our VibeWorlder-8B is comparable to frontier MLLMs, while our flagship VibeWorlder-30B-A3B attains the best overall Pass@1 among all evaluated models.

REOPD: Reliability-Adaptive Reward Extrapolation for On-Policy Distillation

On-policy distillation (OPD) trains a student on its own trajectories under dense token-level supervision from a teacher. Reward-extrapolation methods such as ExOPD amplify the teacher-reference log-likelihood ratio to move beyond direct imitation, but apply a single global coefficient $λ$ to every token. This can drive the student to fit extreme peaks in the implicit reward, causing reward hacking and unstable training, and the optimal $λ$ varies across domains, requiring costly sweeps. We propose REOPD, a reliability-adaptive reward extrapolation framework for OPD. REOPD combines a token-level compatibility weight with a batch-level adaptive budget, yielding a token-wise coefficient $λ_{b,t}=1+γ_b q_t$ that preserves teacher alignment while selectively extrapolating along reliable teacher-reference directions. It requires no verifier, reward model, value model, or extra rollout beyond standard OPD. REOPD outperforms G-OPD on single-teacher mathematics and on both domains in the multi-teacher setting, while matching G-OPD on single-teacher code, demonstrating effective fine-grained reliability adaptation across domains and teacher configurations.

Long-Horizon Agent Trajectory Attribution: A Unified Benchmark and Fine-Grained Annotation Framework

Large language model (LLM) agents increasingly operate through long-horizon trajectories involving user instructions, tool use, external observations, and memory. Existing benchmarks primarily evaluate behavioral outcomes but provide limited support for fine-grained attribution analysis. We introduce trajectory attribution and develop a benchmark and annotation framework for this task. The benchmark organizes heterogeneous trajectories under a unified component schema and provides annotations of the primary attribution component, together with attack and execution chains where applicable. Instantiating the benchmark with trajectories from AgentDojo and the Stage and Canary settings of Agent3Sigma yields more than 1,300 annotated trajectories covering task-aligned actions, unsafe actions, and safety refusals. The benchmark defines two evaluation tasks, primary attribution localization and attribution-chain recovery, and provides reference baselines based on incremental trajectory contribution and component-level leave-one-out perturbation. It captures diverse attribution settings, including local and long-range attribution as well as structured attribution chains. Reference baseline results exhibit substantial performance differences across these settings, providing an initial characterization of the benchmark's attribution challenges. Beyond this initial instantiation, we release a reusable annotation skill that enables trajectories generated by new agent models to be standardized, annotated, and evaluated under the same framework. Project resources and future releases are available at https://github.com/chenjing-2024/agent-trajectory-attribution.

How Much, Then Where: Credit-Conserving Action-to-Token Allocation for Multi-Turn Agent Reinforcement Learning

Credit assignment in multi-turn agent reinforcement learning operates at two levels: assigning trajectory-level credit to actions and distributing each action's credit across its tokens. In this paper, we introduce FACTOR, which separates these decisions. FACTOR uses checkpoint-calibrated TD residuals to assign per-action credits that telescope to the trajectory advantage, and feedback-conditioned teacher-student likelihood gaps to allocate each credit across the realized action tokens. Per-action normalization preserves the action-average coefficient and prevents token-level sign flips. We pair this construction with an action-mean reduction, removing the implicit dependence of an action's scalar surrogate weight on its token length. At the behavior policy and before clipping, each action's inner action-mean surrogate equals its TD credit. FACTOR consistently improves over competitive baselines across ALFWorld, WebShop, and ScienceWorld, with every environment-seed comparison favoring FACTOR and the largest gains emerging on the longest-horizon environment. The same hyperparameters transfer without retuning to a larger backbone and to a different model family. Ablations identify TD action credit as the dominant driver of the improvement, with hindsight token allocation contributing complementary gains.

Open-AoE: An Open Egocentric Manipulation Dataset and Toolchain for Embodied Learning

Egocentric videos of human manipulation provide scalable supervision for embodied intelligence, yet existing resources rarely combine low-cost continuous capture, manipulation-level structured annotations, and reusable tools for robot learning. We present Open-AoE, an open, community-oriented egocentric manipulation dataset and toolchain spanning the full pipeline from smartphone capture to model training. Its first release contains approximately 2,000 hours of manipulation video collected in natural environments by 500+ contributors using 400+ smartphones. The dataset provides text annotations, MANO-based hand poses, camera trajectories, and temporally localized atomic actions. Open-AoE further includes a data processing pipeline that transforms raw recordings into structured samples through temporal action segmentation, semantic annotation, hand reconstruction, and camera trajectory reconstruction. Meanwhile, we provide a separate downstream toolchain supports visualization, cross-embodiment retargeting, model-specific data conversion, and training recipes for VLA policies, WAMs, and World Models. By integrating scalable capture, structured processing, and downstream adaptation, Open-AoE reduces the barriers to both data contribution and reuse, providing practical open infrastructure for embodied model training, human-to-robot transfer, and world modeling.

SemFlowRAG: Directed Semantic Flow from Abstraction to Evidence for Complex Reasoning

Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) enhanced by Knowledge Graphs has shown promise in complex multi-hop reasoning tasks. However, existing graph-based retrieval methods typically rely on flat, undirected topologies. During the retrieval process, the probability flow often gets trapped in high-degree abstract concept nodes which we define as ``probability black holes'', leading to semantic drift and noise accumulation. To address this, we propose SemFlowRAG, a framework that reconstructs the flat retrieval space into a corpus-adaptive semantic gradient graph. This data-driven self-organization enables a hierarchical structure to emerge naturally from the data distribution, capturing the intrinsic semantic granularity of the corpus to suppress structural noise. By quantifying the semantic abstractness of entities through the embedding variance of their associated passages, we transform static undirected edges into directed semantic constraints. Furthermore, we design an abstractness-guided directed PageRank algorithm that forces the retrieval trajectory to follow a ``high-to-low semantic abstractness'' gradient. This mechanism ensures layer-by-layer evidence convergence, smoothly guiding the retrieval process from abstract concepts to specific document evidence. Extensive experiments on complex QA datasets demonstrate that SemFlowRAG effectively mitigates the ``probability black holes'' issue, outperforming existing baselines in both retrieval and downstream reasoning performance.

Learning a Semantic Calibration Network for Open-Vocabulary Semantic Segmentation

Semantic image segmentation assigns a predefined category label to each pixel, has achieved significant progress lately. Open-Vocabulary Segmentation (OVS) extends the segmentation task from a fixed set to an open set, enabling the identification and segmentation of novel concepts based on arbitrary text inputs, such as category names or descriptions. In this paper, we propose a novel Semantic Calibration Network (SCN) for open-vocabulary semantic segmentation. Different from prior approaches that focus on feature aggregation or simple fine-tuning of pre-trained models, SCN refines the mask classification process by explicitly modeling the semantic correlations between classes, aiming to enhance the model's discriminative power while effectively preserving the generalization abilities of the pre-trained CLIP model. Specifically, SCN comprises two core components: Class Disambiguation (CD) and Logits Fusion (LF). First, a cross-attention mechanism is utilized to transform the text embeddings into visually aware pseudo-text embeddings, in order to derive an enhanced similarity score that complements the original mask-text similarity score. Subsequently, the Class Disambiguation module captures implicit inter-class dependencies through a residual architecture to effectively resolve semantic ambiguities. Finally, the Logits Fusion module dynamically integrates multifaceted semantic evidence to ensure that the model achieves a robust semantic consensus while maintaining CLIP's inherent generalization capability. Comprehensive experimental results on mainstream benchmarks demonstrate that the proposed method achieves significant performance improvements compared to state-of-the-art algorithms.

AoE: Always-on Egocentric Human Video Collection for Embodied AI

Embodied foundation models require large-scale, high-quality real-world interaction data for pre-training and scaling. However, existing data collection methods suffer from high infrastructure costs, complex hardware dependencies, and limited interaction scope, making scalable expansion challenging. In fact, humans themselves are ideal physically embodied agents. Therefore, obtaining egocentric real-world interaction data from globally distributed "human agents" offers advantages of low cost and sustainability. To this end, we propose the Always-on Egocentric (AoE) data collection system, which aims to simplify hardware dependencies by leveraging humans themselves and their smartphones, enabling low-cost, highly efficient, and scene-agnostic real-world interaction data collection to address the challenge of data scarcity. Specifically, we first employ an ergonomic neck-mounted smartphone holder to enable low-barrier, large-scale egocentric data collection through a cloud-edge collaborative architecture. Second, we develop a cross-platform mobile APP that leverages on-device compute for real-time processing, while the cloud hosts automated labeling and filtering pipelines that transform raw videos into high-quality training data. Finally, the AoE system supports distributed Ego video data collection by anyone, anytime, and anywhere. We evaluate AoE on data preprocessing quality and downstream tasks, demonstrating that high-quality egocentric data significantly boosts real-world generalization.

AInsteinBench: Benchmarking Coding Agents on Scientific Repositories

We introduce AInsteinBench, a large-scale benchmark for evaluating whether large language model (LLM) agents can operate as scientific computing development agents within real research software ecosystems. Unlike existing scientific reasoning benchmarks which focus on conceptual knowledge, or software engineering benchmarks that emphasize generic feature implementation and issue resolving, AInsteinBench evaluates models in end-to-end scientific development settings grounded in production-grade scientific repositories. The benchmark consists of tasks derived from maintainer-authored pull requests across six widely used scientific codebases, spanning quantum chemistry, quantum computing, molecular dynamics, numerical relativity, fluid dynamics, and cheminformatics. All benchmark tasks are carefully curated through multi-stage filtering and expert review to ensure scientific challenge, adequate test coverage, and well-calibrated difficulty. By leveraging evaluation in executable environments, scientifically meaningful failure modes, and test-driven verification, AInsteinBench measures a model's ability to move beyond surface-level code generation toward the core competencies required for computational scientific research.

Causal-Guided Detoxify Backdoor Attack of Open-Weight LoRA Models

Low-Rank Adaptation (LoRA) has emerged as an efficient method for fine-tuning large language models (LLMs) and is widely adopted within the open-source community. However, the decentralized dissemination of LoRA adapters through platforms such as Hugging Face introduces novel security vulnerabilities: malicious adapters can be easily distributed and evade conventional oversight mechanisms. Despite these risks, backdoor attacks targeting LoRA-based fine-tuning remain relatively underexplored. Existing backdoor attack strategies are ill-suited to this setting, as they often rely on inaccessible training data, fail to account for the structural properties unique to LoRA, or suffer from high false trigger rates (FTR), thereby compromising their stealth. To address these challenges, we propose Causal-Guided Detoxify Backdoor Attack (CBA), a novel backdoor attack framework specifically designed for open-weight LoRA models. CBA operates without access to original training data and achieves high stealth through two key innovations: (1) a coverage-guided data generation pipeline that synthesizes task-aligned inputs via behavioral exploration, and (2) a causal-guided detoxification strategy that merges poisoned and clean adapters by preserving task-critical neurons. Unlike prior approaches, CBA enables post-training control over attack intensity through causal influence-based weight allocation, eliminating the need for repeated retraining. Evaluated across six LoRA models, CBA achieves high attack success rates while reducing FTR by 50-70\% compared to baseline methods. Furthermore, it demonstrates enhanced resistance to state-of-the-art backdoor defenses, highlighting its stealth and robustness.
