Large Language Models (LLMs) often produce unnecessarily lengthy reasoning traces, which significantly increase computational cost and latency. Existing approaches typically rely on fixed length penalties, but such penalties are hard to tune and fail to adapt to the evolving reasoning abilities o...

Modern software development demands code that is maintainable, testable, and scalable by organizing the implementation into modular components with iterative reuse of existing codes. We formalize this iterative, multi-turn paradigm as codeflow and introduce CodeFlowBench , the first benchmark des...

Vision-Language Models (VLMs) excel at many multimodal tasks, yet they frequently struggle with tasks requiring precise understanding and handling of fine-grained visual elements. This is mainly due to information loss during image encoding or insufficient attention to critical regions. Recent wo...

Using entropy as a measure of heterogeneity to guide optimization has emerged as a crucial research direction in Reinforcement Learning for LLMs. However, existing methods typically treat it as a discrete filter or post-hoc regulator rather than a core optimization driver. To fully leverage the p...

Chart reasoning is a critical capability for Vision Language Models (VLMs). However, the development of open-source models is severely hindered by the lack of high-quality training data. Existing datasets suffer from a dual challenge: synthetic charts are often simplistic and repetitive, while th...

Scientific diagrams convey explicit structural information, yet modern text-to-image models often produce visually plausible but structurally incorrect results. Existing benchmarks either rely on image-centric or subjective metrics insensitive to structure, or evaluate intermediate symbolic repre...

Information-seeking (IS) agents have achieved strong performance across a range of wide and deep search tasks, yet their tool use remains largely restricted to API-level snippet retrieval and URL-based page fetching, limiting access to the richer information available through real browsing. While...

In real-world business environments, data is stored in a variety of sources, including structured relational databases, semi-structured databases, and unstructured files. The ability to extract reasonable insights across these diverse sources is integral to data-driven decision-making. Existing b...

We introduce MinerU2.5, a 1.2B-parameter document parsing vision-language model that achieves state-of-the-art recognition accuracy while maintaining exceptional computational efficiency. Our approach employs a coarse-to-fine, two-stage parsing strategy that decouples global layout analysis from...

With the rapid advancement of agent-based methods in recent years, Agentic RAG has undoubtedly become an important research direction. Multi-hop reasoning, which requires models to engage in deliberate thinking and multi-step interaction, serves as a critical testbed for assessing such capabiliti...

Large Language Models (LLMs) excel at natural language understanding and generation, yet their reliance on static pre-training corpora may lead to outdated knowledge, hallucinations, and limited adaptability. Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) mitigates these issues by grounding model outputs w...

In mathematical reasoning tasks, the advancement of Large Language Models (LLMs) relies heavily on high-quality training data with clearly defined and well-graded difficulty levels. However, existing data synthesis methods often suffer from limited diversity and lack precise control over problem...

Despite the remarkable success of multimodal large language models (MLLMs) in generative tasks, we observe that they exhibit a counterintuitive deficiency in the zero-shot multimodal retrieval task. In this work, we investigate the underlying mechanisms that hinder MLLMs from being effective retr...

Advanced agentic intelligence is a prerequisite for deploying Large Language Models in practical, real-world applications. Diverse real-world APIs demand precise, robust function-calling intelligence, which needs agents to develop these capabilities through interaction in varied environments. The...

Extending large language models (LLMs) to low-resource languages often incurs an “align- ment tax”: improvements in the target lan- guage come at the cost of catastrophic forget- ting in general capabilities. We argue that this trade-off arises from the rigidity of supervised fine-tuning (SFT), w...

We introduce \textbf{LongInsightBench} , the first benchmark designed to assess models’ ability to understand long videos, with a focus on human language, viewpoints, actions, and other contextual elements, while integrating \textbf{visual, audio, and text} modalities. Our benchmark excels in thr...

With the advancement of powerful large-scale reasoning models, effectively evaluating the reasoning capabilities of these models has become increasingly important. However, existing benchmarks designed to assess the reasoning abilities of large models tend to be limited in scope and lack the flex...

Training effective AI agents for real-world tool-use interactions requires data that faithfully captures the dynamics of human–agent collaboration. However, such data is scarce, and existing methods often resort to synthetic data generation. The inherently dynamic and complex nature of user–agent...

Recent advancements in Large Language Models (LLMs) have revolutionized Text-to-SQL parsing, achieving remarkable success in static, single-turn query generation. However, a significant disparity remains between these academic benchmarks and real-world utility. In practical applications, such as...
