Step 3.5 Flash: Open Frontier-Level Intelligence with 11B Active Parameters
Ailin Huang, Ang Li, Aobo Kong +213
We introduce Step 3.5 Flash, a sparse Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) model that bridges frontier-level agentic intelligence and computational efficiency. We focus on what matters most wh…
Step-DeepResearch Technical Report
Chen Hu, Haikuo Du, Heng Wang +64
As LLMs shift toward autonomous agents, Deep Research has emerged as a pivotal metric. However, existing academic benchmarks like BrowseComp often fail to meet real-world demands f…
Learning to Compress: Unlocking the Potential of Large Language Models for Text Representation
Yeqin Zhang, Yizheng Zhao, Chen Hu +4
Text representation plays a critical role in tasks like clustering, retrieval, and other downstream applications. With the emergence of large language models (LLMs), there is incre…
Step-GUI Technical Report
Haolong Yan, Jia Wang, Xin Huang +95
Recent advances in multimodal large language models unlock unprecedented opportunities for GUI automation. However, a fundamental challenge remains: how to efficiently acquire high…
SE-Agent: Self-Evolution Trajectory Optimization in Multi-Step Reasoning with LLM-Based Agents
Jiaye Lin, Yifu Guo, Yuzhen Han +11
Large Language Model (LLM)-based agents have recently shown impressive capabilities in complex reasoning and tool use via multi-step interactions with their environments. While the…
Random Policy Valuation is Enough for LLM Reasoning with Verifiable Rewards
Haoran He, Yuxiao Ye, Qingpeng Cai +4
RL with Verifiable Rewards (RLVR) has emerged as a promising paradigm for improving the reasoning abilities of large language models (LLMs). Current methods rely primarily on polic…
