SearchSkill: Teaching LLMs to Use Search Tools with Evolving Skill Banks

Jinchao Hu, Meizhi Zhong, Kehai Chen +1

Teaching language models to use search tools is not only a question of whether they search, but also of whether they issue good queries. This is especially important in open-domain…

Multimodal Large Language Model-Enabled Video Translation: A Role-Oriented Survey

Bingzheng Qu, Kehai Chen, Xuefeng Bai +1

Recent progress in multimodal large language models (MLLMs) is reshaping video translation from a cascaded pipeline of automatic speech recognition, machine translation, text-to-sp…

Beyond Rigid: Benchmarking Non-Rigid Video Editing

Bingzheng Qu, Xuefeng Bai, Kehai Chen +1

As video generation models are increasingly expected to manipulate physical dynamics, there is a growing need to move evaluation beyond appearance fidelity and semantic alignment.…

Dynamics Within Latent Chain-of-Thought: An Empirical Study of Causal Structure

Zirui Li, Xuefeng Bai, Kehai Chen +4

Latent or continuous chain-of-thought methods replace explicit textual rationales with a number of internal latent steps, but these intermediate computations are difficult to evalu…

Decoupling Skeleton and Flesh: Efficient Multimodal Table Reasoning with Disentangled Alignment and Structure-aware Guidance

Yingjie Zhu, Xuefeng Bai, Kehai Chen +4

Reasoning over table images remains challenging for Large Vision-Language Models (LVLMs) due to complex layouts and tightly coupled structure-content information. Existing solution…

Tailoring Teaching to Aptitude: Direction-Adaptive Self-Distillation for LLM Reasoning

Hongbin Zhang, Chaozheng Wang, Kehai Chen +4

On-policy self-distillation (OPSD) is an emerging LLM post-training paradigm in which the model serves as its own teacher: conditioned on privileged information such as a reference…
