Transformer는 두 가지 생각을 동시에 담을 수 있다: LLM의 선형 중첩 증거

Transformer는 두 가지 생각을 동시에 담을 수 있다: LLM의 선형 중첩 증거

While Large Language Models (LLMs) rely on highly non-linear components, in this work we demonstrate that they exhibit fundamental linearity: when inputs from distinct text streams are linearly combined, the model outputs a superposition of the individual next-token distributions. We term this the Superposition Linearity Hypothesis. We provide evidence that superposition is an intrinsic property of the Transformer architecture rather than an emergent consequence of training; in fact, we observe that it tends to diminish as pretraining progresses. However, we demonstrate that linearity can be substantially restored through lightweight fine-tuning, significantly reducing the divergence between the predicted next-token distribution and the average of the individual next-token distributions. Finally, we introduce a guided decoding procedure that disentangles superposed outputs, enabling the simultaneous generation of two coherent continuations from a single forward pass.

Flow-ERD: 다양한 교통 시뮬레이션을 위한 에이전트 유형 인식 Flow Matching과 엔트로피 정규화 증류

Realistic and diverse traffic simulation is essential to autonomous driving development. Yet prevailing benchmarks predominantly reward realism, and recent methods have optimized accordingly, leaving diversity underexplored. We introduce Flow-ERD, a multi-agent simulator that pursues realism and diversity jointly. Its backbone, Agent-Type Aware Flow Matching (AFM), couples flow matching's multi-modal expressiveness with type-specific kinematic execution. It preserves fine-grained diversity while keeping motions consistent with each agent type. A second stage, Entropy-Regularized Distillation (ERD), fine-tunes the closed-loop rollout distribution with an entropy-regularized reverse-KL objective. This mitigates covariate shift while explicitly preventing collapse onto high-density modes. We evaluate Flow-ERD with a log-free diversity metric alongside standard realism scores. Flow-ERD ranks first on the WOSAC test benchmark and dominates the realism--diversity Pareto front among reproduci

PanoWorld: Towards Spatial Supersensing in 360^circ Panorama World

Multimodal large laboratory models (MLLMs) still struggle with spatial understanding under the dominant perspective-image paradigm, which inherits the narrow field of view of human-like perception. For navigation, robotic search, and 3D scene understanding, 360-degree panoramic sensing offers a form of supersensing by capturing the entire surrounding environment at once. However, existing MLLM pipelines typically decompose panoramas into multiple perspective views, leaving the spherical structure of equirectangular projection (ERP) largely implicit. In this paper, we study pano-native understanding, which requires an MLLM to reason over an ERP panorama as a continuous, observer-centered space. To this end, we first define the key abilities for pano-native understanding, including semantic anchoring, spherical localization, reference-frame transformation, and depth-aware 3D spatial reasoning. We then build a large-scale metadata construction pipeline that converts mixed-source ERP panor

WorldCraft: 인터랙티브 비디오 월드 모델에서 카메라 이동부터 객체 조작까지

Recent video-based world models have made pixel-space environments interactive at the camera level: users can navigate viewpoints while the model generates coherent visual continuations. Yet their action spaces remain incomplete: users can move the camera, but cannot act on individual objects. Since real-world interaction is inherently object-centric, such models remain closer to passive scene observers than truly manipulable environments. We present WorldCraft, a framework that expands interactive video world models from camera navigation to object-level trajectory actions. Given a user click and a sketched path, WorldCraft generates future frames in which the selected object follows the prescribed trajectory while the camera continues to navigate the scene. WorldCraft achieves this through a trajectory-centric control pipeline: First, Normalized World Trajectory (NWT) represents user-drawn motion in a camera-invariant world coordinate system and dynamically re-projects it under the c

비디오 생성 모델은 범용 비전 학습기다

Driven by next-token prediction, NLP shifted from task-specific models into powerful generalist foundation models. What, then, is the equivalent catalyst needed to achieve a general-purpose model in computer vision? In this paper, we contend that large-scale text-to-video generation serves as a strong pre-training paradigm for computer vision, providing the necessary spatiotemporal priors, vision-language alignment, and scalability required for general visual intelligence. We introduce GenCeption, which leverages a pre-trained video generative diffusion backbone to define a feed-forward perception model, capable of performing various vision tasks steered by text instructions. Empirical results demonstrate that GenCeption achieves state-of-the-art performance across a diverse suite of tasks, including depth, surface normal, and camera pose estimation, expression-referring segmentation, and 3D keypoint prediction, often matching or surpassing specialized models (e.g. DepthAnything3, SAM3

Action Images: End-to-End Policy Learning via Multiview Video Generation

World action models (WAMs) have emerged as a promising direction for robot policy learning, as they can leverage powerful video backbones to model the future states. However, existing approaches often rely on separate action modules, or use action representations that are not pixel-grounded, making it difficult to fully exploit the pretrained knowledge of video models and limiting transfer across viewpoints and environments. In this work, we present Action Images, a unified world action model that formulates policy learning as multiview video generation. Instead of encoding control as low-dimensional tokens, we translate 7-DoF robot actions into interpretable action images: multi-view action videos that are grounded in 2D pixels and explicitly track robot-arm motion. This pixel-grounded action representation allows the video backbone itself to act as a zero-shot policy, without a separate policy head or action module. Beyond control, the same unified model supports video-action joint g

MMEmb-R1: Reasoning-Enhanced Multimodal Embedding with Pair-Aware Selection and Adaptive Control

MLLMs have been successfully applied to multimodal embedding tasks, yet their generative reasoning capabilities remain underutilized. Directly incorporating chain-of-thought reasoning into embedding learning introduces two fundamental challenges. First, structural misalignment between instance-level reasoning and pairwise contrastive supervision may lead to shortcut behavior, where the model merely learns the superficial format of reasoning. Second, reasoning is not universally beneficial for embedding tasks. Enforcing reasoning for all inputs may introduce unnecessary computation and latency, and can even obscure salient semantic signals for simple cases. To address these issues, we propose MMEmb-R1, an adaptive reasoning-based multimodal embedding framework. We formulate reasoning as a latent variable and introduce pair-aware reasoning selection that employs counterfactual intervention to identify reasoning paths beneficial for query-target alignment. Furthermore, we adopt reinforcem

Experience Transfer for Multimodal LLM Agents in Minecraft Game

Multimodal LLM agents operating in complex game environments must continually reuse past experience to solve new tasks efficiently. In this work, we propose Echo, a transfer-oriented memory framework that enables agents to derive actionable knowledge from prior interactions rather than treating memory as a passive repository of static records. To make transfer explicit, Echo decomposes reusable knowledge into five dimensions: structure, attribute, process, function, and interaction. This formulation allows the agent to identify recurring patterns shared across different tasks and infer what prior experience remains applicable in new situations. Building on this formulation, Echo leverages In-Context Analogy Learning (ICAL) to retrieve relevant experiences and adapt them to unseen tasks through contextual examples. Experiments in Minecraft show that, under a from-scratch learning setting, Echo achieves a 1.3x to 1.7x speed-up on object-unlocking tasks. Moreover, Echo exhibits a burst-li

FactReview: Evidence-Grounded Reviews with Literature Positioning and Execution-Based Claim Verification

Peer review in machine learning is under growing pressure from rising submission volume and limited reviewer time. Most LLM-based reviewing systems read only the manuscript and generate comments from the paper's own narrative. This makes their outputs sensitive to presentation quality and leaves them weak when the evidence needed for review lies in related work or released code. We present FactReview, an evidence-grounded reviewing system that combines claim extraction, literature positioning, and execution-based claim verification. Given a submission, FactReview identifies major claims and reported results, retrieves nearby work to clarify the paper's technical position, and, when code is available, executes the released repository under bounded budgets to test central empirical claims. It then produces a concise review and an evidence report that assigns each major claim one of five labels: Supported, Supported by the paper, Partially supported, In conflict, or Inconclusive.

장문맥 LLM을 위한 자기 유도형 테스트타임 학습

Long-context processing has become increasingly important for large language models (LLMs), but simply extending the context window does not guarantee effective utilization of long inputs. As input length grows, accuracy often degrades, indicating that models still struggle to identify and use the evidence most relevant to a question. A promising way to improve long-context utilization is test-time training (TTT), which treats the test context as a training example for instance-specific parameter adaptation. However, applying TTT to the entire long context is prohibitively expensive, while adapting on randomly sampled spans introduces severe noise. Because most spans in a long context are irrelevant to the specific question, training on them may even degrade the base model's performance. Our preliminary study shows that TTT is highly sensitive to training-span quality: on LongBench-v2, TTT on randomly sampled spans hurts performance, whereas TTT on oracle spans substantially improves i

Scientific Graphics Program Synthesis via Dual Self-Consistency Reinforcement Learning

Graphics Program Synthesis is pivotal for interpreting and editing visual data, effectively facilitating the reverse-engineering of static visuals into editable TikZ code. While TikZ is the de facto standard for scientific schematics due to its programmatic flexibility, its requirement for rigorous spatial precision presents a significant challenge for Multimodal Large Language Models. Progress is currently stifled by two primary gaps: (1) Data Quality Gap: existing image-TikZ corpora often lack strict executability and reliable visual alignment; (2) Evaluation Gap: a lack of benchmarks for both structural and visual fidelity. To address these, we present a closed-loop framework featuring: SciTikZ-230K, a large-scale, high-quality dataset from our Execution-Centric Data Engine covering 11 diverse scientific disciplines; SciTikZ-Bench, a multifaceted benchmark spanning from basic geometric constructs to intricate hierarchical schematics to evaluate both visual fidelity and structural lo

ExplorationBench: 검증 가능한 외계 월드에서 AI 탐색 능력 측정

Scientific discovery begins where known problems end. There, AI systems must engage in exploration: framing hypotheses, designing experiments, and iterating on the results. However, evaluating this ability is difficult: (1) how to verify whether a genuinely new hypothesis holds, and (2) how to determine whether a system has discovered it through exploration or merely recalled related knowledge from pre-training data. To this end, we introduce ExplorationBench, which turns the wicked problem of evaluating scientific exploration into a concrete and tractable framework built on verifiable Alien Worlds: their rules are executable, so every answer can be checked exactly, and they conflict with familiar knowledge, so recall alone cannot solve the tasks. The benchmark contains two sandboxes, AlienCode (31 discovery targets, 70 tasks) and AlienLogic (24 discovery targets, 70 tasks). Each sandbox provides a flawed manual, task-specific environmental feedback, and a dedicated tool-call schema. S

Transformers dominate modern sequence modeling, but their quadratic attention incurs substantial computational cost. Subquadratic architectures offer a scalable alternative. However, it remains unclear which designs yield the most effective sequence models. We compare three leading approaches: xLSTM, Mamba-2, and Gated DeltaNet. We evaluate these models on tasks with complex dependencies: (1) code-model pre-training, (2) distillation of code models from large language models, and (3) pre-training of time-series foundation models. Across these settings, xLSTM delivers the strongest overall performance. To explain xLSTM's advantage, we present a unified formulation and analyze the underlying architectural mechanisms, focusing on state tracking and memory dynamics. Our results show that xLSTM enables more flexible and stable memory correction via its gating scheme. We corroborate these findings on controlled synthetic length-generalization tasks. Overall, our findings indicate that xLSTM'

SG-OPD: 부호 일관성 게이팅과 단계별 교사 샘플링 기반 sign-gated 온정책 증류

On-policy distillation (OPD) trains a student on its own trajectories with dense per-token supervision from a stronger teacher, and often outperforms off-policy distillation and standard reinforcement learning. However, we find that its effectiveness implicitly relies on two assumptions that frequently break in practice: trajectory-level alignment between the student and the teacher, and uniform token-level reliability of the teacher's preferences. We therefore propose Sign-Gated On-Policy Distillation (SG-OPD), which uses a binary verifier as a trust signal for the teacher at two complementary granularities: phased teacher sampling mixes in verifier-endorsed teacher rollouts at cold-start, and a sign-consistency gate extrapolates the distillation update on tokens where the teacher agrees with the verifier-correct direction and interpolates it where it disagrees. Experiments on competition-level mathematical reasoning benchmarks show that SG-OPD consistently outperforms standard OPD, w

The Depth Ceiling: On the Limits of Large Language Models in Discovering Latent Planning

The viability of chain-of-thought (CoT) monitoring hinges on models being unable to reason effectively in their latent representations. Yet little is known about the limits of such latent reasoning in LLMs. We test these limits by studying whether models can discover multi-step planning strategies without supervision on intermediate steps and execute them latently, within a single forward pass. Using graph path-finding tasks that precisely control the number of required latent planning steps, we uncover a striking limitation unresolved by massive scaling: tiny transformers trained from scratch discover strategies requiring up to three latent steps, fine-tuned GPT-4o and Qwen3-32B reach five, and GPT-5.4 attains seven under few-shot prompting. Although the maximum latent planning depth models can learn during training is five, the discovered strategy generalizes up to eight latent steps at test-time. This reveals a dissociation between the ability to discover a latent strategy under fin

Beyond Hard Negatives: The Importance of Score Distribution in Knowledge Distillation for Dense Retrieval

Transferring knowledge from a cross-encoder teacher via Knowledge Distillation (KD) has become a standard paradigm for training retrieval models. While existing studies have largely focused on mining hard negatives to improve discrimination, the systematic composition of training data and the resulting teacher score distribution have received relatively less attention. In this work, we highlight that focusing solely on hard negatives prevents the student from learning the comprehensive preference structure of the teacher, potentially hampering generalization. To effectively emulate the teacher score distribution, we propose a Stratified Sampling strategy that uniformly covers the entire score spectrum. Experiments on in-domain and out-of-domain benchmarks confirm that Stratified Sampling, which preserves the variance and entropy of teacher scores, serves as a robust baseline, significantly outperforming top-K and random sampling in diverse settings. These findings suggest that the esse

Learning to Build the Environment: Self-Evolving Reasoning RL via Verifiable Environment Synthesis

We pursue a vision for self-improving language models in which the model does not merely generate problems or traces to imitate, but constructs the environments that train it. In zero-data reasoning RL, this reframes self-improvement from a data-generation loop into an environment-construction loop, where each artifact is a reusable executable object that samples instances, computes references, and scores responses. Whether this vision sustains improvement hinges on a single property: the environments must exhibit stable solve--verify asymmetry, the model must be able to write an oracle once that it cannot reliably execute in natural language on fresh instances. This asymmetry takes two complementary forms. Some tasks are algorithmically hard to reason through but trivial as code: a dynamic program or graph traversal, compiled once, yields unboundedly many calibrated instances. Others are intrinsically hard to solve but easy to verify, like planted subset-sum or constraint satisfaction

Environments serve as interactive systems for large language model (LLM) based agents across diverse scenarios and play a crucial role in driving the continual evolution of model capabilities. Despite this importance, existing work lacks a systematic categorization and deep analysis. This paper systematically studies current researches on agentic environments from the perspective of the environment engineering lifecycle, covering their modeling, synthesis, evaluation and application. Specifically, the paper first introduces representative environments from the perspectives of eight attributes and eight domains, providing detailed analyses of their development paths and highlighting their core capabilities. Second, for automated environment synthesis, two paradigms are introduced, such as symbolic synthesis and neural synthesis. This paper also shows different environment evaluation methods in each paradigm. Thirdly, the corresponding environment applications from the perspective of age

Improving Semantic Proximity in Information Retrieval through Cross-Lingual Alignment

With the increasing accessibility and utilization of multilingual documents, Cross-Lingual Information Retrieval (CLIR) has emerged as an important research area. Conventionally, CLIR tasks have been conducted under settings where the language of documents differs from that of queries, and typically, the documents are composed in a single coherent language. In this paper, we highlight that in such a setting, the cross-lingual alignment capability may not be evaluated adequately. Specifically, we observe that, in a document pool where English documents coexist with another language, most multilingual retrievers tend to prioritize unrelated English documents over the related document written in the same language as the query. To rigorously analyze and quantify this phenomenon, we introduce various scenarios and metrics designed to evaluate the cross-lingual alignment performance of multilingual retrieval models. Furthermore, to improve cross-lingual performance under these challenging co

EdgeDetect: Importance-Aware Gradient Compression with Homomorphic Aggregation for Federated Intrusion Detection

Federated learning (FL) enables collaborative intrusion detection without raw data exchange, but conventional FL incurs high communication overhead from full-precision gradient transmission and remains vulnerable to gradient inference attacks. This paper presents EdgeDetect, a communication-efficient and privacy-aware federated IDS for bandwidth-constrained 6G-IoT environments. EdgeDetect introduces gradient smartification, a median-based statistical binarization that compresses local updates to {+1,-1} representations, reducing uplink payload by 32times while preserving convergence. We further integrate Paillier homomorphic encryption over binarized gradients, protecting against honest-but-curious servers without exposing individual updates. Experiments on CIC-IDS2017 (2.8M flows, 7 attack classes) demonstrate 98.0% multi-class accuracy and 97.9% macro F1-score, matching centralized baselines, while reducing per-round communication from 450~MB to 14~MB (96.9% reduction).

Few-step diffusion distillation has become increasingly mature for 4-8-step generation, yet pushing further to 2 steps remains challenging. In this work, we introduce Z-Image Turbo++, a high-quality 2-step image generation model distilled from the 8-step Z-Image Turbo teacher. Our method addresses the central bottlenecks of increased task difficulty and limited model capacity in 2-step generation through three simple but effective design choices tailored to this regime. First, we propose Distribution-Aligned Adversarial Learning, which uses teacher-generated images rather than external real images as real samples for GAN training, providing a more attainable and informative adversarial target. Second, we adopt Step-Decoupled Parameterization, assigning independent model parameters to the two denoising steps to better match their distinct capacity demands. Third, we perform End-to-End Training with Iterative Regularization, allowing the first step to receive gradients from final image q

VenusBench-Mobile: A Challenging and User-Centric Benchmark for Mobile GUI Agents with Capability Diagnostics

Existing online benchmarks for mobile GUI agents remain largely app-centric and task-homogeneous, failing to reflect the diversity and instability of real-world mobile usage. To this end, we introduce VenusBench-Mobile, a challenging online benchmark for evaluating general-purpose mobile GUI agents under realistic, user-centric conditions. VenusBench-Mobile builds two core evaluation pillars: defining what to evaluate via user-intent-driven task design that reflects real mobile usage, and how to evaluate through a capability-oriented annotation scheme for fine-grained agent behavior analysis. Extensive evaluation of state-of-the-art mobile GUI agents reveals large performance gaps relative to prior benchmarks, indicating that VenusBench-Mobile poses substantially more challenging and realistic tasks and that current agents remain far from reliable real-world deployment. Diagnostic analysis further shows that failures are dominated by deficiencies in perception and memory, which are lar

정지된, 그리고 호환 가능한 표현이면 충분하다

Learning compatible representations aims to learn feature representations that can be used interchangeably over time whenever a model undergoes updates. In this paper, we demonstrate that stationary representations learned by d-Simplex fixed classifiers imply compatibility as in its formal definition. This result establishes a foundation for future works and can be directly exploited in practical learning scenarios. We address the challenge of learning compatibility using d-Simplex fixed classifiers when the model is sequentially fine-tuned. Learning according to a d-Simplex fixed classifier with the cross-entropy loss aligns feature distributions at the first-order statistics. Consequently, it may not fully capture higher-order dependencies in the representation between model updates. To address this issue, we demonstrate that training the model using a d-Simplex fixed classifier through a convex combination of the cross-entropy loss and a contrastive loss not only captures higher-ord

GenLCA: 3D Diffusion for Full-Body Avatars from In-the-Wild Videos

We present GenLCA, a diffusion-based generative model for generating and editing photorealistic full-body avatars from text and image inputs. The generated avatars are faithful to the inputs, while supporting high-fidelity facial and full-body animations. The core idea is a novel paradigm that enables training a full-body 3D diffusion model from partially observable 2D data, allowing the training dataset to scale to millions of real-world videos. This scalability contributes to the superior photorealism and generalizability of GenLCA. Specifically, we scale up the dataset by repurposing a pretrained feed-forward avatar reconstruction model as an animatable 3D tokenizer, which encodes unstructured video frames into structured 3D tokens. However, most real-world videos only provide partial observations of body parts, resulting in excessive blurring or transparency artifacts in the 3D tokens. To address this, we propose a novel visibility-aware diffusion training strategy that replaces in

Hierarchical Codec Diffusion for Video-to-Speech Generation

Video-to-Speech (VTS) generation aims to synthesize speech from a silent video without auditory signals. However, existing VTS methods disregard the hierarchical nature of speech, which spans coarse speaker-aware semantics to fine-grained prosodic details. This oversight hinders direct alignment between visual and speech features at specific hierarchical levels during property matching. In this paper, leveraging the hierarchical structure of Residual Vector Quantization (RVQ)-based codec, we propose HiCoDiT, a novel Hierarchical Codec Diffusion Transformer that exploits the inherent hierarchy of discrete speech tokens to achieve strong audio-visual alignment. Specifically, since lower-level tokens encode coarse speaker-aware semantics and higher-level tokens capture fine-grained prosody, HiCoDiT employs low-level and high-level blocks to generate tokens at different levels. The low-level blocks condition on lip-synchronized motion and facial identity to capture speaker-aware content, w

As audio-visual multi-modal large language models (MLLMs) are increasingly deployed in safety-critical applications, understanding their vulnerabilities is crucial. To this end, we introduce Multi-Modal Typography, a systematic study examining how typographic attacks across multiple modalities adversely influence MLLMs. While prior work focuses narrowly on unimodal attacks, we expose the cross-modal fragility of MLLMs. We analyze the interactions between audio, visual, and text perturbations and reveal that coordinated multi-modal attack creates a significantly more potent threat than single-modality attacks (attack success rate = 83.43% vs 34.93%).Our findings across multiple frontier MLLMs, tasks, and common-sense reasoning and content moderation benchmarks establishes multi-modal typography as a critical and underexplored attack strategy in multi-modal reasoning.

Pseudo-Unification: Entropy Probing Reveals Divergent Information Patterns in Unified Multimodal Models

Unified multimodal models (UMMs) were designed to combine the reasoning ability of large language models (LLMs) with the generation capability of vision models. In practice, however, this synergy remains elusive: UMMs fail to transfer LLM-like reasoning to image synthesis and exhibit divergent response behaviors. We term this phenomenon pseudo-unification. Diagnosing its internal causes is important, but existing probing methods either lack model-internal insight or ignore prompt-response dependencies. To address these limitations, we propose an information-theoretic probing framework that jointly analyzes how UMMs encode inputs and generate outputs. Applied to ten representative UMMs, our framework reveals that pseudo-unification stems from a dual divergence: (i) Modality-Asymmetric Encoding, where vision and language follow different entropy trajectories, and (ii) Pattern-Split Response, where text generation exhibits high-entropy creativity while image synthesis enforces low-entropy

MaskAlign: 효율적인 확산 학습을 위한 토큰 부분집합 표현 정렬

Representation alignment with pretrained vision models has recently shown strong potential for accelerating diffusion transformer training. By aligning intermediate diffusion features with clean-image representations from self-supervised vision encoders, existing methods improve convergence and generation quality. However, such alignment also introduces a non-trivial constraint: diffusion models operate on noisy inputs whose usable information varies across timesteps, while the reference features are extracted from clean images. In this paper, we revisit this mismatch from a token-level perspective. We find that, under full-token representation alignment, tokens with large alignment-gradient norms exhibit a stable spatial preference, suggesting that the alignment objective does not affect all tokens uniformly and may encourage the model to rely on the complete set of clean-image tokens. To address this issue, we propose MaskAlign, a token-subset representation alignment method that app

PRISM: Prior Rectification and Uncertainty-Aware Structure Modeling for Diffusion-Based Text Image Super-Resolution

Text image super-resolution (Text-SR) requires more than visually plausible detail synthesis: slight errors in stroke topology may alter character identity and break readability. Existing methods improve text fidelity with stronger recognition-based or generative priors, yet they still face two unresolved challenges under severe degradation: the text condition extracted from low-quality inputs can itself be unreliable, and a plausible global prior does not fully determine fine-grained stroke boundaries. We present PRISM, a single-step diffusion-based Text-SR framework that addresses these two challenges through Flow-Matching Prior Rectification (FMPR) and a Structure-guided Uncertainty-aware Residual Encoder (SURE). FMPR constructs a privileged training-time prior from paired low-quality/high-quality latents and learns a flow matching that transports degraded embeddings toward this restoration-oriented prior space, yielding more accurate and reliable global text guidance.
