VibeFlow: Versatile Video Chroma-Lux Editing through Self-Supervised Learning

Video chroma-lux editing, which aims to modify illumination and color while preserving structural and temporal fidelity, remains a significant challenge. Existing methods typically rely on expensive supervised training with synthetic paired data. This paper proposes VibeFlow, a novel self-supervised framework that unleashes the intrinsic physical understanding of pre-trained video generation models. Instead of learning color and light transitions from scratch, we introduce a disentangled data perturbation pipeline that enforces the model to adaptively recombine structure from source videos and color-illumination cues from reference images, enabling robust disentanglement in a self-supervised manner. Furthermore, to rectify discretization errors inherent in flow-based models, we introduce Residual Velocity Fields alongside a Structural Distortion Consistency Regularization, ensuring rigorous structural preservation and temporal coherence. Our framework eliminates the need for costly training resources and generalizes in a zero-shot manner to diverse applications, including video relighting, recoloring, low-light enhancement, day-night translation, and object-specific color editing. Extensive experiments demonstrate that VibeFlow achieves impressive visual quality with significantly reduced computational overhead.

Characterizing Lidar Range-Measurement Ambiguity due to Multiple Returns

Reliable position and attitude sensing is critical for highly automated vehicles that operate on conventional roadways. Lidar sensors are increasingly incorporated into pose-estimation systems. Despite its great utility, lidar is a complex sensor, and its performance in roadway environments is not yet well understood. For instance, it is often assumed in lidar-localization algorithms that a lidar will always identify a unique surface along a given raypath. However, this assumption is not always true, as ample prior evidence exists to suggest that lidar units may generate measurements probabilistically when more than one scattering surface appears within the lidar's conical beam. In this paper, we analyze lidar datasets to characterize cases with probabilistic returns along particular raypaths. Our contribution is to present representative cumulative distribution functions (CDFs) for raypaths observed by two different mechanically rotating lidar units with stationary bases. In subsequent discussion, we outline a qualitative methodology to assess the effect of probabilistic multi-return cases on lidar-based localization.

Doctor-RAG: Failure-Aware Repair for Agentic Retrieval-Augmented Generation

Agentic Retrieval-Augmented Generation (Agentic RAG) has become a widely adopted paradigm for multi-hop question answering and complex knowledge reasoning, where retrieval and reasoning are interleaved at inference time. As reasoning trajectories grow longer, failures become increasingly common. Existing approaches typically address such failures by either stopping at diagnostic analysis or rerunning the entire retrieval-reasoning pipeline, which leads to substantial computational overhead and redundant reasoning. In this paper, we propose Doctor-RAG (DR-RAG), a unified diagnose-and-repair framework that corrects failures in Agentic RAG through explicit error localization and prefix reuse, enabling minimal-cost intervention. DR-RAG decomposes failure handling into two consecutive stages: (i) trajectory-level failure diagnosis and localization, which attributes errors to a coverage-gated taxonomy and identifies the earliest failure point in the reasoning trajectory; and (ii) tool-conditioned local repair, which intervenes only at the diagnosed failure point while maximally reusing validated reasoning prefixes and retrieved evidence. By explicitly separating error attribution from correction, DR-RAG enables precise error localization, thereby avoiding expensive full-pipeline reruns and enabling targeted, efficient repair. We evaluate DR-RAG across three multi-hop question answering benchmarks, multiple agentic RAG baselines, and different backbone models. Experimental results demonstrate that DR-RAG substantially improves answer accuracy while significantly reducing reasoning token consumption compared to rerun-based repair strategies.

A Wireless World Model for AI-Native 6G Networks

Integrating AI into the physical layer is a cornerstone of 6G networks. However, current data-driven approaches struggle to generalize across dynamic environments because they lack an intrinsic understanding of electromagnetic wave propagation. We introduce the Wireless World Model (WWM), a multi-modal foundation framework predicting the spatiotemporal evolution of wireless channels by internalizing the causal relationship between 3D geometry and signal dynamics. Pre-trained on a massive ray-traced multi-modal dataset, WWM overcomes the data authenticity gap, further validated under real-world measurement data. Using a joint-embedding predictive architecture with a multi-modal mixture-of-experts Transformer, WWM fuses channel state information, 3D point clouds, and user trajectories into a unified representation. Across the five key downstream tasks supported by WWM, it achieves remarkable performance in seen environments, unseen generalization scenarios, and real-world measurements, consistently outperforming SOTA uni-modal foundation models and task-specific models. This paves the way for physics-aware 6G intelligence that adapts to the physical world.

GigaWorld-Policy: An Efficient Action-Centered World--Action Model

World-Action Models (WAM) initialized from pre-trained video generation backbones have demonstrated remarkable potential for robot policy learning. However, existing approaches face two critical bottlenecks that hinder performance and deployment. First, jointly reasoning over future visual dynamics and corresponding actions incurs substantial inference overhead. Second, joint modeling often entangles visual and motion representations, making motion prediction accuracy heavily dependent on the quality of future video forecasts. To address these issues, we introduce GigaWorld-Policy, an action-centered WAM that learns 2D pixel-action dynamics while enabling efficient action decoding, with optional video generation. Specifically, we formulate policy training into two coupled components: the model predicts future action sequences conditioned on the current observation, and simultaneously generates future videos conditioned on the predicted actions and the same observation. The policy is supervised by both action prediction and video generation, providing richer learning signals and encouraging physically plausible actions through visual-dynamics constraints. With a causal design that prevents future-video tokens from influencing action tokens, explicit future-video generation is optional at inference time, allowing faster action prediction during deployment. To support this paradigm, we curate a diverse, large-scale robot dataset to pre-train an action-centered video generation model, which is then adapted as the backbone for robot policy learning. Experimental results on real-world robotic platforms show that GigaWorld-Policy runs 9x faster than the leading WAM baseline, Motus, while improving task success rates by 7%. Moreover, compared with pi-0.5, GigaWorld-Policy improves performance by 95% on RoboTwin 2.0.

From Natural Language to Executable Option Strategies via Large Language Models

Large Language Models (LLMs) excel at general code generation, yet translating natural-language trading intents into correct option strategies remains challenging. Real-world option design requires reasoning over massive, multi-dimensional option chain data with strict constraints, which often overwhelms direct generation methods. We introduce the Option Query Language (OQL), a domain-specific intermediate representation that abstracts option markets into high-level primitives under grammatical rules, enabling LLMs to function as reliable semantic parsers rather than free-form programmers. OQL queries are then validated and executed deterministically by an engine to instantiate executable strategies. We also present a new dataset for this task and demonstrate that our neuro-symbolic pipeline significantly improves execution accuracy and logical consistency over direct baselines.

ViT-AdaLA: Adapting Vision Transformers with Linear Attention

Vision Transformers (ViTs) based vision foundation models (VFMs) have achieved remarkable performance across diverse vision tasks, but suffer from quadratic complexity that limits scalability to long sequences. Existing linear attention approaches for ViTs are typically trained from scratch, requiring substantial computational resources, while linearization-based methods developed for large language model decoders do not transfer well to ViTs. To address these challenges, we propose ViT-AdaLA, a novel framework for effectively adapting and transferring prior knowledge from VFMs to linear attention ViTs. ViT-AdaLA consists of three stages: attention alignment, feature alignment, and supervised fine-tuning. In the attention alignment stage, we align vanilla linear attention with the original softmax-based attention in each block to approximate the behavior of softmax attention. However, residual approximation errors inevitably accumulate across layers. We mitigate this by fine-tuning the linearized ViT to align its final-layer features with a frozen softmax VFM teacher. Finally, the adapted prior knowledge is transferred to downstream tasks through supervised fine-tuning. Extensive experiments on classification and segmentation tasks demonstrate the effectiveness and generality of ViT-AdaLA over various state-of-the-art linear attention counterpart.

Beyond Benchmark Islands: Toward Representative Trustworthiness Evaluation for Agentic AI

As agentic AI systems move beyond static question answering into open-ended, tool-augmented, and multi-step real-world workflows, their increased authority poses greater risks of system misuse and operational failures. However, current evaluation practices remain fragmented, measuring isolated capabilities such as coding, hallucination, jailbreak resistance, or tool use in narrowly defined settings. We argue that the central limitation is not merely insufficient coverage of evaluation dimensions, but the lack of a principled notion of representativeness: an agent's trustworthiness should be assessed over a representative socio-technical scenario distribution rather than a collection of disconnected benchmark instances. To this end, we propose the Holographic Agent Assessment Framework (HAAF), a systematic evaluation paradigm that characterizes agent trustworthiness over a scenario manifold spanning task types, tool interfaces, interaction dynamics, social contexts, and risk levels. The framework integrates four complementary components: (i) static cognitive and policy analysis, (ii) interactive sandbox simulation, (iii) social-ethical alignment assessment, and (iv) a distribution-aware representative sampling engine that jointly optimizes coverage and risk sensitivity -- particularly for rare but high-consequence tail risks that conventional benchmarks systematically overlook. These components are connected through an iterative Trustworthy Optimization Factory. Through cycles of red-team probing and blue-team hardening, this paradigm progressively narrows the vulnerabilities to meet deployment standards, shifting agent evaluation from benchmark islands toward representative, real-world trustworthiness. Code and data for the illustrative instantiation are available at https://github.com/TonyQJH/haaf-pilot.

FlexMS is a flexible framework for benchmarking deep learning-based mass spectrum prediction tools in metabolomics

The identification and property prediction of chemical molecules is of central importance in the advancement of drug discovery and material science, where the tandem mass spectrometry technology gives valuable fragmentation cues in the form of mass-to-charge ratio peaks. However, the lack of experimental spectra hinders the attachment of each molecular identification, and thus urges the establishment of prediction approaches for computational models. Deep learning models appear promising for predicting molecular structure spectra, but overall assessment remains challenging as a result of the heterogeneity in methods and the lack of well-defined benchmarks. To address this, our contribution is the creation of benchmark framework FlexMS for constructing and evaluating diverse model architectures in mass spectrum prediction. With its easy-to-use flexibility, FlexMS supports the dynamic construction of numerous distinct combinations of model architectures, while assessing their performance on preprocessed public datasets using different metrics. In this paper, we provide insights into factors influencing performance, including the structural diversity of datasets, hyperparameters like learning rate and data sparsity, pretraining effects, metadata ablation settings and cross-domain transfer learning analysis. This provides practical guidance in choosing suitable models. Moreover, retrieval benchmarks simulate practical identification scenarios and score potential matches based on predicted spectra.

GigaBrain-0.5M*: a VLA That Learns From World Model-Based Reinforcement Learning

Vision-language-action (VLA) models that directly predict multi-step action chunks from current observations face inherent limitations due to constrained scene understanding and weak future anticipation capabilities. In contrast, video world models pre-trained on web-scale video corpora exhibit robust spatiotemporal reasoning and accurate future prediction, making them a natural foundation for enhancing VLA learning. Therefore, we propose \textit{GigaBrain-0.5M*}, a VLA model trained via world model-based reinforcement learning. Built upon \textit{GigaBrain-0.5}, which is pre-trained on over 10,000 hours of robotic manipulation data, whose intermediate version currently ranks first on the international RoboChallenge benchmark. \textit{GigaBrain-0.5M*} further integrates world model-based reinforcement learning via \textit{RAMP} (Reinforcement leArning via world Model-conditioned Policy) to enable robust cross-task adaptation. Empirical results demonstrate that \textit{RAMP} achieves substantial performance gains over the RECAP baseline, yielding improvements of approximately 30\% on challenging tasks including \texttt{Laundry Folding}, \texttt{Box Packing}, and \texttt{Espresso Preparation}. Critically, \textit{GigaBrain-0.5M$^*$} exhibits reliable long-horizon execution, consistently accomplishing complex manipulation tasks without failure as validated by real-world deployment videos on our \href{https://gigabrain05m.github.io}{project page}.
