EntangleCodec: A Unified Discrete Audio Tokenizer via Semantic-Acoustic Entanglement
Hui Li, Yangfan Gao, Junlin Shang +4
Audio tokenizers serve as the discrete interface between continuous audio and Audio Language Models (ALMs), but existing tokenizers often struggle to support both understanding and…
Learning Query-Specific Rubrics from Human Preferences for DeepResearch Report Generation
Changze Lv, Jie Zhou, Wentao Zhao +12
Nowadays, developing reliable DeepResearch-style long-form report generation remains challenging, as training and evaluation lack verifiable reward signals. Accordingly, rubric-bas…
SciAgentGym: Benchmarking Multi-Step Scientific Tool-use in LLM Agents
Yujiong Shen, Yajie Yang, Zhiheng Xi +17
Scientific reasoning inherently demands integrating sophisticated toolkits to navigate domain-specific knowledge. Yet, current benchmarks largely overlook agents' ability to orches…
Which Reasoning Trajectories Teach Students to Reason Better? A Simple Metric of Informative Alignment
Yuming Yang, Mingyoung Lai, Wanxu Zhao +13
Long chain-of-thought (CoT) trajectories provide rich supervision signals for distilling reasoning from teacher to student LLMs. However, both prior work and our experiments show t…
Safety in Embodied AI: A Survey of Risks, Attacks, and Defenses
Xiao Li, Xiang Zheng, Yifeng Gao +35
Embodied Artificial Intelligence (Embodied AI) integrates perception, cognition, planning, and interaction into agents that operate in open-world, safety-critical environments. As…
Can Deep Research Agents Retrieve and Organize? Evaluating the Synthesis Gap with Expert Taxonomies
Ming Zhang, Jiabao Zhuang, Wenqing Jing +18
Deep Research Agents increasingly automate survey writing, yet existing benchmarks do not jointly test whether they retrieve the papers experts consider essential and organize thos…
