| Intrinsic Distribution MatchingFollowing prior work, we estimate this difference with internal velocity branches, avoiding a separate fake-score network.Deyuan Liu, Yansen Han, Kaiwen Zheng and others | 239 |
| A-RSI: Adaptive Task Refresh for Zero-Data Multimodal Self-ImprovementWe address these two questions separately: training dynamics determine when to acquire new experience, while the answers to new tasks remain independently checkable.Yu Liu, Youxing Li, Yuedong Tan and others | 158 |
| Your Benchmark Is an Empirical Measure Over DifficultyIn this work, we develop this measure-based view of benchmark evaluation. This perspective allows us to identify and formalize two central failure modes: measure mismatch, where the benchmark difficulty distribution differs from the intended difficulty distribution, and coverage…Yifan Sun, Naicheng Yu, Jiawen Gong and others | 143 |
| Youtu-Parsing-Omni: One Encoder, One Schema, All ModalitiesWe present Youtu-Parsing-Omni, an omni-modal parser that converts documents, images, audio, and video into structured records grounded in space and time, providing a perception layer for agents that read, locate, and cite evidence across modalities.Yunhang Shen, Zhangquan Chen, Xiaotian Li and others | 122 |
| Look Only When Needed: Certificate-Guided Visual Routing for Efficient Diffusion VLMsSince visual tokens make up 89-97% of this input on the benchmarks we study, most of the decoding computation is spent repeatedly processing the same image.Donghyeon Cho, Joowon Kim, Seungho Shin and others | 93 |
