Loong: A Human-Like Long Document Translation Agent with Observe-and-Act Adaptive Context Selection

Document-level translation remains one of the most challenging tasks for large language models, which are constrained by limited context windows that impede global cohesion, while simultaneously suffering from redundant contextual information that degrades translation quality. To address this, we propose a human-like long document translation agent called Loong, which leverages a 3E memory module (Essence-Exemplar-Entity) to store summaries, sentence pairs, and entity records as historical context. Instead of passively attending to all history, Loong performs deep reasoning to adaptively identify the optimal context for translation guidance. Loong optimizes its context policy through reinforcement learning, utilizing preference data derived from its own sampled observe-and-act reasoning trajectories. Empirical evaluations demonstrate that Loong achieves substantial translation quality improvements in English $\Leftrightarrow$ Chinese, German, and French directions, with average gains of up to 13.0 points across the three evaluation metrics. Furthermore, Loong exhibits strong generalization across domains and robustness against contextual noise, while maintaining remarkable stability in ultra-long document translation. Our code is released at https://github.com/YutongWang1216/LoongDocMT.

BEAT: Rhythm-Elastic Alignment for Agentic Music-guided Movie Trailer Generation

Automatic movie trailer generation must select shots from a full-length film and synchronize them with background music. Existing methods either relegate music alignment to post-processing or enforce rigid one-to-one shot-music mappings, overlooking that professional editing rhythm is elastic: rapid cuts accompany high-energy passages while sustained shots span quieter bars. We introduce BEAT, a framework that addresses this gap with two core components: MuVA, a compact music-visual alignment encoder trained with Sinkhorn-regularized two-stage learning, and Bar-DP, an energy-adaptive dynamic programming algorithm that produces elastic many-to-one alignments following musical dynamics. These components are integrated into a five-phase agentic pipeline that grounds the core alignment in learned cross-modal features while coordinating higher-level creative decisions through structured text signals. To support comprehensive evaluation, we also introduce TrailerArena, a benchmark with 20+ metrics across four complementary dimensions. On TrailerArena, BEAT achieves state-of-the-art performance across shot selection, ordering, and perceptual quality, while producing fully composed trailers end-to-end.

PARE: Pruning and Adaptive Routing for Efficient Video Generation

Video Diffusion Transformers (DiTs) generate high-quality videos but demand substantial compute due to wide blocks, deep architectures, and iterative sampling. Recent methods reduce cost by compressing width, depth, or sampling steps, but typically commit to a fixed architecture that cannot adapt to individual inputs or denoising stages. We propose PARE (Pruning and Adaptive Routing for Efficient video generation), which jointly compresses width and depth with structure-aware pruning and input-adaptive routing. For width, we observe that attention heads specialize into spatial and temporal roles, and design importance scoring that accounts for this distinction to prevent motion-critical temporal heads from being pruned prematurely. For depth, we train a lightweight router conditioned on denoising timestep and visual content to dynamically select which blocks to execute at each step, enabling per-input compute adaptation rather than static block removal. A progressive pipeline first recovers width-pruned quality via distillation, then jointly optimizes the student and router to decouple the two learning objectives. Experiments on Wan2.1-14B for both image-to-video and text-to-video generation show that PARE substantially reduces per-step computation while preserving quality across VBench dimensions, and composes with step distillation for further acceleration.

LeanSearch v2: Global Premise Retrieval for Lean 4 Theorem Proving

Proving theorems in Lean 4 often requires identifying a scattered set of library lemmas whose joint use enables a concise proof -- a task we call global premise retrieval. Existing tools address adjacent problems: semantic search engines find individual declarations matching a query, while premise-selection systems predict useful lemmas one tactic step at a time. Neither recovers the full premise set an entire theorem requires. We present LeanSearch v2, a two-mode retrieval system for this task. Its standard mode applies a hierarchy-informalized Mathlib corpus with an embedding-reranker pipeline, achieving state-of-the-art single-query retrieval without domain-specific fine-tuning (nDCG@10 of 0.62 vs. 0.53 for the next-best system). Its reasoning mode builds on standard mode as its retrieval substrate, targeting global premise retrieval through iterative sketch-retrieve-reflect cycles. On a 69-query benchmark of research-level Mathlib theorems, reasoning mode recovers 46.1% of ground-truth premise groups within 10 retrieved candidates, outperforming strong reasoning retrieval systems (38.0%) and premise-selection baselines (9.3%) on the same benchmark. In a controlled downstream evaluation with a fixed prover loop, replacing alternative retrievers with LeanSearch v2 yields the highest proof success (20% vs. 16% for the next-best system and 4% without retrieval), confirming that retrieval quality propagates to proof generation. We have open-sourced all code, data, and benchmarks. Code and data: https://github.com/frenzymath/LeanSearch-v2 . The standard mode is publicly available with API access at https://leansearch.net/ .

MASPO: Joint Prompt Optimization for LLM-based Multi-Agent Systems

Large language model (LLM)-based Multi-agent systems (MAS) have shown promise in tackling complex collaborative tasks, where agents are typically orchestrated via role-specific prompts. While the quality of these prompts is pivotal, jointly optimizing them across interacting agents remains a non-trivial challenge, primarily due to the misalignment between local agent objectives and holistic system goals. To address this, we introduce MASPO, a novel framework designed to automatically and iteratively refine prompts across the entire system. A core innovation of MASPO is its joint evaluation mechanism, which assesses prompts not merely by their local validity, but by their capacity to facilitate downstream success for successor agents. This effectively bridges the gap between local interactions and global outcomes without relying on ground-truth labels. Furthermore, MASPO employs a data-driven evolutionary beam search to efficiently navigate the high-dimensional prompt space. Extensive empirical evaluations across 6 diverse tasks demonstrate that MASPO consistently outperforms state-of-the-art prompt optimization methods, achieving an average accuracy improvement of 2.9. We release our code at https://github.com/wangzx1219/MASPO.

Hedging Memory Horizons for Non-Stationary Prediction via Online Aggregation

We study online prediction under distribution shift, where inputs arrive chronologically and outcomes are revealed only after prediction. In this setting, predictors must remain stable in quiet regimes yet adapt when regimes shift, and the right adaptation memory is unknown in advance. We propose MELO (Memory-hedged Exponentially Weighted Least-Squares Online aggregation), a model-agnostic method that hedges across adaptation scales: it wraps any non-anticipating base-predictor pool with exponentially weighted least-squares (EWLS) adaptation experts at multiple forgetting factors, and aggregates raw and EWLS-adapted forecasts with MLpol, a parameter-free online aggregation rule. Under boundedness conditions, we establish deterministic oracle inequalities showing that it competes with both the best raw predictor and the best bounded, time-varying affine combinations of the base predictions, up to a path-length-dependent tracking cost and a sublinear aggregation overhead. We evaluate MELO on French national electricity-load forecasting through the COVID-19 lockdown using no regime indicators, lockdown dates, or policy covariates. MELO reduces overall RMSE by 34.7\% relative to base-only MLpol and achieves lower overall RMSE than a TabICL reference supplied with an external COVID policy-response covariate. Moreover, MELO requires only lightweight per-step recursive updates without model retraining.

Category-based and Popularity-guided Video Game Recommendation: A Balance-oriented Framework

In recent years, the video game industry has experienced substantial growth, presenting players with a vast array of game choices. This surge in options has spurred the need for a specialized recommender system tailored for video games. However, current video game recommendation approaches tend to prioritize accuracy over diversity, potentially leading to unvaried game suggestions. In addition, the existing game recommendation methods commonly lack the ability to establish strict connections between games to enhance accuracy. Furthermore, many existing diversity-focused methods fail to leverage crucial item information, such as item category and popularity during neighbor modeling and message propagation. To address these challenges, we introduce a novel framework, called CPGRec, comprising three modules, namely accuracy-driven, diversity-driven, and comprehensive modules. The first module extends the state-of-the-art accuracy-focused game recommendation method by connecting games in a more stringent manner to enhance recommendation accuracy. The second module connects neighbors with diverse categories within the proposed game graph and harnesses the advantages of popular game nodes to amplify the influence of long-tail games within the player-game bipartite graph, thereby enriching recommendation diversity. The third module combines the above two modules and employs a new negative-sample rating score reweighting method to balance accuracy and diversity. Experimental results on the Steam dataset demonstrate the effectiveness of our proposed method in improving game recommendations. The dataset and source codes are anonymously released at: https://github.com/CPGRec2024/CPGRec.git.

Automated Conjecture Resolution with Formal Verification

Recent advances in large language models have significantly improved their ability to perform mathematical reasoning, extending from elementary problem solving to increasingly capable performance on research-level problems. However, reliably solving and verifying such problems remains challenging due to the inherent ambiguity of natural language reasoning. In this paper, we propose an automated framework for tackling research-level mathematical problems that integrates natural language reasoning with formal verification, enabling end-to-end problem solving with minimal human intervention. Our framework consists of two components: an informal reasoning agent, Rethlas, and a formal verification agent, Archon. Rethlas mimics the workflow of human mathematicians by combining reasoning primitives with our theorem search engine, Matlas, to explore solution strategies and construct candidate proofs. Archon, equipped with our formal theorem search engine LeanSearch, translates informal arguments into formalized Lean 4 projects through structured task decomposition, iterative refinement, and automated proof synthesis, ensuring machine-checkable correctness. Using this framework, we automatically resolve an open problem in commutative algebra and formally verify the resulting proof in Lean 4 with essentially no human involvement. Our experiments demonstrate that strong theorem retrieval tools enable the discovery and application of cross-domain mathematical techniques, while the formal agent is capable of autonomously filling nontrivial gaps in informal arguments. More broadly, our work illustrates a promising paradigm for mathematical research in which informal and formal reasoning systems, equipped with theorem retrieval tools, operate in tandem to produce verifiable results, substantially reduce human effort, and offer a concrete instantiation of human-AI collaborative mathematical research.

WSVD: Weighted Low-Rank Approximation for Fast and Efficient Execution of Low-Precision Vision-Language Models

Singular Value Decomposition (SVD) has become an important technique for reducing the computational burden of Vision Language Models (VLMs), which play a central role in tasks such as image captioning and visual question answering. Although multiple prior works have proposed efficient SVD variants to enable low-rank operations, we find that in practice it remains difficult to achieve substantial latency reduction during model execution. To address this limitation, we introduce a new computational pattern and apply SVD at a finer granularity, enabling real and measurable improvements in execution latency. Furthermore, recognizing that weight elements differ in their relative importance, we adaptively allocate relative importance to each element during SVD process to better preserve accuracy, then extend this framework with quantization applied to both weights and activations, resulting in a highly efficient VLM. Collectively, we introduce~\textit{Weighted SVD} (WSVD), which outperforms other approaches by achieving over $1.8\times$ decoding speedup while preserving accuracy. We open source our code at: \href{https://github.com/SAI-Lab-NYU/WSVD}{\texttt{https://github.com/SAI-Lab-NYU/WSVD}

SDE-Driven Spatio-Temporal Hypergraph Neural Networks for Irregular Longitudinal fMRI Connectome Modeling in Alzheimer's Disease

Longitudinal neuroimaging is essential for modeling disease progression in Alzheimer's disease (AD), yet irregular sampling and missing visits pose substantial challenges for learning reliable temporal representations. To address this challenge, we propose SDE-HGNN, a stochastic differential equation (SDE)-driven spatio-temporal hypergraph neural network for irregular longitudinal fMRI connectome modeling. The framework first employs an SDE-based reconstruction module to recover continuous latent trajectories from irregular observations. Based on these reconstructed representations, dynamic hypergraphs are constructed to capture higher-order interactions among brain regions over time. To further model temporal evolution, hypergraph convolution parameters evolve through SDE-controlled recurrent dynamics conditioned on inter-scan intervals, enabling disease-stage-adaptive connectivity modeling. We also incorporate a sparsity-based importance learning mechanism to identify salient brain regions and discriminative connectivity patterns. Extensive experiments on the OASIS-3 and ADNI cohorts demonstrate consistent improvements over state-of-the-art graph and hypergraph baselines in AD progression prediction.
