Deep Research Agents have shown strong capability in multi-step information retrieval, reasoning, and long-form report generation, but existing benchmarks and systems remain predominantly text-centric, with limited evaluation of whether visual elements are factually reliable and well aligned with the surrounding analysis. To address this gap, we introduce TVIR (Text--Visual Interleaved Report Generation), which includes TVIR-Bench, a benchmark of 100 expert-curated multimodal deep research tasks...
Selecting the best response from multiple small-model samples using a stronger scorer is a simple inference-time strategy, but fails when the small model has already committed to incorrect reasoning paths. PRM guided search avoids this by scoring candidate continuations during generation, but requires a reward model trained with step-level labels. We propose Chunk-Level Guided Generation, a training-free alternative that uses an off-the-shelf large language model as a process scorer. At each s...
Large language models solve complex problems by generating lengthy chains of explicit reasoning tokens. While effective, this makes reasoning expensive, length-sensitive, and constrained to (discrete) natural language. While latent reasoning offers a continuous alternative, determining useful structures for intermediate latent states is an open challenge. In this paper, we formulate latent reasoning as a geometric path-approximation problem within the model's pretrained token-embedding space. We...
Lane-level maps are critical infrastructure for autonomous driving and lane-level navigation, yet constructing and maintaining standardized lane networks for hundreds of cities remains highly labor-intensive. Recent end-to-end vectorized mapping methods can predict lane geometry and topology directly from sensor data, but they typically treat mapping specifications and traffic regulations as implicit, dataset-dependent supervision. Moreover, in complex scenes (e.g., worn or missing markings and ...
Reasoning models improve accuracy through extended chains of thought, but their long outputs create a memory and compute bottleneck. KV cache eviction methods reduce this cost by evicting unimportant key-value pairs from the cache, yet they often yield worse accuracy than selection-based sparse attention alternatives, which keep the full KV cache. We identify key factors crucial to KV cache eviction accuracy. First, a small fraction of value states have abnormally large magnitudes, and evicting ...
Test-time scaling improves the reasoning performance of large language models but incurs substantial cost in both total computation and latency. Existing adaptive sampling methods partially mitigate this issue by dynamically deciding when to stop sampling, yet they typically rely on heuristic rules or rely on distribution assumptions. In this work, we formulate adaptive sampling as a Markov decision process (MDP). We train a lightweight sampling controller with reinforcement learning (RL) to joi...
We present Echo Infinity, an autoregressive (AR) framework towards real-time infinite video generation that employs a learnable evolving memory to dynamically filter, abstract, and compress any-length history at constant cost. Existing methods mainly curate memory with predefined KV-cache schedules, fixed-ratio heuristic compression, or inference-time RoPE adaptation. These designs inevitably lose historical information and amplify compounding errors due to their limited cache window and ignoran...
Developing unified video generation and editing models capable of interpreting interleaved multimodal inputs is a promising yet challenging frontier field. Existing unified frameworks predominantly rely on massive models (typically 13B parameters or more) and incorporate source video conditions for editing by concatenating sequence tokens. This concatenation inevitably doubles the sequence length, quadrupling the computational complexity of the self-attention mechanism and introducing prohibitiv...
Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR) has become a key technology for human--AI interaction. However, code-switching ASR (CS-ASR) remains particularly challenging due to the severe scarcity of multilingual CS speech resources across diverse language pairs. Existing approaches primarily improve CS-ASR performance through synthetic CS speech generation or pair-specific fine-tuning on limited bilingual datasets. Nevertheless, these approaches face an inherent scalability limitation, as support for CS ...
