MathForm: Scaling Mathematical Autoformalization with Knowledge Retrieval and Verification-Guided Refinement

Autoformalization is commonly framed as translating natural-language mathematical statements into machine-verifiable formal languages such as Lean 4. However, faithful formalization requires more than translation. Models must map mathematical concepts to the complex hierarchy of types and definitions in formal libraries such as Mathlib, while ensuring that generated statements preserve the meaning of the source propositions. Existing approaches struggle because they rely heavily on the model's parametric memory for library-specific knowledge, while common data construction pipelines often resort to filtering single-pass outputs and lack mechanisms for feedback-driven revision. To address these challenges, we introduce MathForm, an autoformalization framework for constructing verified training data through Mathlib knowledge retrieval and verification-guided iterative refinement. Before generation, a retrieval planner gathers relevant definitions and existing formalizations from Mathlib to guide the formalization generator. Generated statements are then revised using compiler diagnostics and semantic-consistency feedback. Using this framework, we construct FormalVerse, a Lean 4 dataset containing approximately 367K verified examples across diverse mathematical domains and sources. We then train MathForm-8B through supervised fine-tuning followed by reinforcement learning. Across six benchmarks, MathForm-8B achieves average Pass@8 rates of 88.06% under Syntax Check (SC) and 72.37% under Consistency Check (CC), outperforming multiple specialized 32B autoformalizers. On the challenging FATE-H and FATE-X subsets, it attains CC pass rates of 63% and 37%, exceeding the strongest specialized baselines in both cases.

A Frozen Pixel-Space Diffusion Model Can Guide Itself with Its Own Samples

Pixel-space diffusion models aim to learn an end-to-end generator directly over raw pixels. This is challenging because a single model must capture both global structure and local texture in the same high-dimensional space. While recent work improves pixel diffusion through alternative prediction targets, training objectives, and architectures, these advances typically require training a new model from scratch. We show there is a cheaper, complementary strategy: \textbf{a frozen, pretrained pixel diffusion model can guide itself}. Our key observation is that intermediate layers of a pretrained pixel diffusion transformer can be decoded into coarse predictions that capture the main low-frequency structure, while the final layers progressively refine local, high-frequency details. We therefore attach a lightweight prediction head to an intermediate layer, keep the backbone frozen, and use the discrepancy between the intermediate and final predictions as a self-guidance direction during sampling. To train this head, we further find that real images are not necessary. Instead, model-generated samples suffice and even outperform real images for training the head, especially in enhancing the high-frequency components that pixel diffusion tends to underfit. Across multiple pixel diffusion models on ImageNet, our \textbf{Synthetic Self-Guidance (SSG)} consistently improves generation while adapter training requires less than 1$\%$ of full-model training compute: it reduces FID by over 50$\%$ across the evaluated JiT variants without classifier-free guidance (CFG) and further improves strong baselines with CFG, e.g., JiT-H/16 from 1.86 to 1.67 and PixelREPA-H/16 from 1.81 to 1.59. Our code is available at https://github.com/zfu006/SSG.

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.

MA-ProofBench: A Two-Tiered Evaluation of LLMs for Theorem Proving in Mathematical Analysis

Large Language Models (LLMs) have made notable progress in automated theorem proving, yet existing formal benchmarks remain limited in both mathematical coverage and difficulty. Most are concentrated in areas that are easier to formalize, such as algebra and elementary number theory, and provide limited coverage of subfields that require deeper reasoning, including mathematical analysis. To address this gap, we introduce MA-ProofBench, to the best of our knowledge, the first formal theorem-proving benchmark dedicated to Mathematical Analysis. The benchmark contains 200 formalized theorems covering 6 core topics and 27 subcategories, including measure and integration theory, complex analysis, and functional analysis. The problems are divided into two difficulty levels, an undergraduate level (Level I, 100 problems) and a Ph.D. qualifying level (Level II, 100 problems), to evaluate how well LLMs perform formal reasoning at different mathematical depths. Each problem is constructed through a human-led, LLM-assisted formalization pipeline followed by independent expert review, ensuring that the formal statements remain faithful to the original mathematics. We evaluate a range of recent general-purpose reasoning models and formal theorem provers on MA-ProofBench. However, most models perform poorly: even the best-performing model, GPT-5.5, achieves only 16% Pass@8 on Level I and 5% on Level II, while most models stay close to 0% on Level II. Further analysis identifies Mathlib hallucinations and incomplete proofs as the two dominant failure modes, while an evaluation on the natural-language version of the benchmark exposes a clear gap between informal and formal reasoning. MA-ProofBench is intended to serve as a reliable reference for tracking progress in formal mathematical reasoning in advanced domains.

Frames2Residual: Spatiotemporal Decoupling for Self-Supervised Video Denoising

Self-supervised video denoising methods typically extend image-based frameworks into the temporal dimension, yet they often struggle to integrate inter-frame temporal consistency with intra-frame spatial specificity. Existing Video Blind-Spot Networks (BSNs) require noise independence by masking the center pixel, this constraint prevents the use of spatial evidence for texture recovery, thereby severing spatiotemporal correlations and causing texture loss. To address this, we propose Frames2Residual (F2R), a spatiotemporal decoupling framework that explicitly divides self-supervised training into two distinct stages: blind temporal consistency modeling and non-blind spatial texture recovery. In Stage 1, a blind temporal estimator learns inter-frame consistency using a frame-wise blind strategy, producing a temporally consistent anchor. In Stage 2, a non-blind spatial refiner leverages this anchor to safely reintroduce the center frame and recover intra-frame high-frequency spatial residuals while preserving temporal stability. Extensive experiments demonstrate that our decoupling strategy allows F2R to outperform existing self-supervised methods on both sRGB and raw video benchmarks.

How Far Can Unsupervised RLVR Scale LLM Training?

Unsupervised reinforcement learning with verifiable rewards (URLVR) offers a pathway to scale LLM training beyond the supervision bottleneck by deriving rewards without ground truth labels. Recent works leverage model intrinsic signals, showing promising early gains, yet their potential and limitations remain unclear. In this work, we revisit URLVR and provide a comprehensive analysis spanning taxonomy, theory and extensive experiments. We first classify URLVR methods into intrinsic versus external based on reward sources, then establish a unified theoretical framework revealing that all intrinsic methods converge toward sharpening the model's initial distribution This sharpening mechanism succeeds when initial confidence aligns with correctness but fails catastrophically when misaligned. Through systematic experiments, we show intrinsic rewards consistently follow a rise-then-fall pattern across methods, with collapse timing determined by model prior rather than engineering choices. Despite these scaling limits, we find intrinsic rewards remain valuable in test-time training on small datasets, and propose Model Collapse Step to measure model prior, serving as a practical indicator for RL trainability. Finally, we explore external reward methods that ground verification in computational asymmetries, showing preliminary evidence they may escape the confidence-correctness ceiling. Our findings chart boundaries for intrinsic URLVR while motivating paths toward scalable alternatives.

Data Science and Technology Towards AGI Part I: Tiered Data Management

The development of artificial intelligence can be viewed as an evolution of data-driven learning paradigms, with successive shifts in data organization and utilization continuously driving advances in model capability. Current LLM research is dominated by a paradigm that relies heavily on unidirectional scaling of data size, increasingly encountering bottlenecks in data availability, acquisition cost, and training efficiency. In this work, we argue that the development of AGI is entering a new phase of data-model co-evolution, in which models actively guide data management while high-quality data, in turn, amplifies model capabilities. To implement this vision, we propose a tiered data management framework, designed to support the full LLM training lifecycle across heterogeneous learning objectives and cost constraints. Specifically, we introduce an L0-L4 tiered data management framework, ranging from raw uncurated resources to organized and verifiable knowledge. Importantly, LLMs are fully used in data management processes, such as quality scoring and content editing, to refine data across tiers. Each tier is characterized by distinct data properties, management strategies, and training roles, enabling data to be strategically allocated across LLM training stages, including pre-training, mid-training, and alignment. The framework balances data quality, acquisition cost, and marginal training benefit, providing a systematic approach to scalable and sustainable data management. We validate the effectiveness of the proposed framework through empirical studies, in which tiered datasets are constructed from raw corpora and used across multiple training phases. Experimental results demonstrate that tier-aware data utilization significantly improves training efficiency and model performance. To facilitate further research, we release our tiered datasets and processing tools to the community.

CPMobius: Iterative Coach-Player Reasoning for Data-Free Reinforcement Learning

Large Language Models (LLMs) have demonstrated strong potential in complex reasoning, yet their progress remains fundamentally constrained by reliance on massive high-quality human-curated tasks and labels, either through supervised fine-tuning (SFT) or reinforcement learning (RL) on reasoning-specific data. This dependence renders supervision-heavy training paradigms increasingly unsustainable, with signs of diminishing scalability already evident in practice. To overcome this limitation, we introduce CPMöbius (CPMobius), a collaborative Coach-Player paradigm for data-free reinforcement learning of reasoning models. Unlike traditional adversarial self-play, CPMöbius, inspired by real world human sports collaboration and multi-agent collaboration, treats the Coach and Player as independent but cooperative roles. The Coach proposes instructions targeted at the Player's capability and receives rewards based on changes in the Player's performance, while the Player is rewarded for solving the increasingly instructive tasks generated by the Coach. This cooperative optimization loop is designed to directly enhance the Player's mathematical reasoning ability. Remarkably, CPMöbius achieves substantial improvement without relying on any external training data, outperforming existing unsupervised approaches. For example, on Qwen2.5-Math-7B-Instruct, our method improves accuracy by an overall average of +4.9 and an out-of-distribution average of +5.4, exceeding RENT by +1.5 on overall accuracy and R-zero by +4.2 on OOD accuracy.

Improving Flexible Image Tokenizers for Autoregressive Image Generation

Flexible image tokenizers aim to represent an image using an ordered 1D variable-length token sequence. This flexible tokenization is typically achieved through nested dropout, where a portion of trailing tokens is randomly truncated during training, and the image is reconstructed using the remaining preceding sequence. However, this tail-truncation strategy inherently concentrates the image information in the early tokens, limiting the effectiveness of downstream AutoRegressive (AR) image generation as the token length increases. To overcome these limitations, we propose \textbf{ReToK}, a flexible tokenizer with \underline{Re}dundant \underline{Tok}en Padding and Hierarchical Semantic Regularization, designed to fully exploit all tokens for enhanced latent modeling. Specifically, we introduce \textbf{Redundant Token Padding} to activate tail tokens more frequently, thereby alleviating information over-concentration in the early tokens. In addition, we apply \textbf{Hierarchical Semantic Regularization} to align the decoding features of earlier tokens with those from a pre-trained vision foundation model, while progressively reducing the regularization strength toward the tail to allow finer low-level detail reconstruction. Extensive experiments demonstrate the effectiveness of ReTok: on ImageNet 256$\times$256, our method achieves superior generation performance compared with both flexible and fixed-length tokenizers.

FADE: Adversarial Concept Erasure in Flow Models

Diffusion models have demonstrated remarkable image generation capabilities, but also pose risks in privacy and fairness by memorizing sensitive concepts or perpetuating biases. We propose a novel \textbf{concept erasure} method for text-to-image diffusion models, designed to remove specified concepts (e.g., a private individual or a harmful stereotype) from the model's generative repertoire. Our method, termed \textbf{FADE} (Fair Adversarial Diffusion Erasure), combines a trajectory-aware fine-tuning strategy with an adversarial objective to ensure the concept is reliably removed while preserving overall model fidelity. Theoretically, we prove a formal guarantee that our approach minimizes the mutual information between the erased concept and the model's outputs, ensuring privacy and fairness. Empirically, we evaluate FADE on Stable Diffusion and FLUX, using benchmarks from prior work (e.g., object, celebrity, explicit content, and style erasure tasks from MACE). FADE achieves state-of-the-art concept removal performance, surpassing recent baselines like ESD, UCE, MACE, and ANT in terms of removal efficacy and image quality. Notably, FADE improves the harmonic mean of concept removal and fidelity by 5--10\% over the best prior method. We also conduct an ablation study to validate each component of FADE, confirming that our adversarial and trajectory-preserving objectives each contribute to its superior performance. Our work sets a new standard for safe and fair generative modeling by unlearning specified concepts without retraining from scratch.
