SenseNova-U1.5: Towards Native Unified Visual Intelligence

We launch SenseNova-U1.5, an 8B-MoT native unified multimodal model that understands, reasons about, and generates visual content within an encoder-free and VAE-free architecture. We strengthen its visual interface through spatially coherent patch reconstruction and scale its training with carefully curated generation and editing data, improved task formulation, structural prompt enhancement, and native resolutions of up to 4K. For post-training, we optimize specialized experts for visual aesthetics, bilingual text rendering, infographic generation, and image editing, and consolidate their capabilities through multi-expert on-policy distillation. Across extensive evaluations, SenseNova-U1.5 largely advances image fidelity, text rendering, complex composition, multi-reference editing, and interleaved generation, while improving instruction following and preserving subject identity, geometry, and unmodified regions. Despite limited exposure to structured formats in its generation data, SenseNova-U1.5 generalizes effectively to long, complex, and structured visual instructions, further proving that multimodal understanding can transfer to visual planning and creation. Together, these findings position native unified modelling as a promising path towards systems that perceive, reason and create within a fully end-to-end framework. We will open-source training code, including supervised fine-tuning, reinforcement learning, and on-policy distillation.

NCP-ArchPreview Technical Report: Moving towards Latent Space Language Models through Next Concept Prediction

We introduce NCP-ArchPreview, a latent-space language model that pushes autoregressive pretraining beyond standard next-token prediction (NTP). Alongside NTP, the model learns through Next Concept Prediction (NCP) to predict discrete concepts that span multiple tokens, introducing an explicit and more challenging concept-level objective while preserving standard token-level autoregressive generation. NCP-ArchPreview builds a latent space by constructing a product-quantized concept vocabulary directly from its hidden states, and subsequently learns to predict future concepts via a dedicated Concept Module. These predicted concepts are then fed back to the token level to guide subsequent generation, with NTP and NCP trained jointly end-to-end. We scale this architecture to 8.9B parameters and train it on 5.73T tokens from the Dolma-3 dataset, marking the largest demonstration of a latent-space language model to date. Remarkably, by consuming only 51.3% of the total training tokens, NCP-ArchPreview achieves the final pretraining loss of OLMo-3-7B. Following full pretraining, it outperforms OLMo-3-7B by 2.45 points on the downstream macro-average, including a notable 5.99-point gain on GSM8K. Controlled experiments isolate a clear progression of performance gains stemming from both the latent architecture and the NCP objective. Furthermore, utilizing only 85% of the standard computation, NCP-ArchPreview approaches the training loss of a strictly parameter-aligned 8.9B baseline. The learned latent space remains highly valuable after the pretraining stage: updating just the 17M-parameter VQ module yields a novel, lightweight interface for domain adaptation, while a simple injection of concept representations into a DFlash2 drafter improves the mean accepted length by 4.17% with negligible overhead.

DianShi-RxnDB: A Large-Scale, Fine-Grained Organic Reaction Data Platform Built via a Fully Automated Pipeline for Researchers and AI Agents

High-quality structured organic reaction data are essential for developing artificial intelligence for chemistry (AI4Chem), yet much of this knowledge remains dispersed across patent text, images, and reaction schemes. We present DianShi-RxnDB, a large-scale, fine-grained organic reaction data platform built via a fully automated extraction and normalization pipeline integrating patent text, images, and reaction schemes. Its corpus covers organic synthesis patents from the USPTO and EPO published between 1976 and 2025, yielding approximately 24 million reaction instances, of which approximately 14.8 million (61.7%) pass automated qualification checks. Each instance represents a specific single-step experiment recording participants, roles, quantities, temperatures, reaction times, yields, experimental procedures, and provenance links to source patents. In a manual evaluation of 1,300 sampled qualified instances, the micro-averaged field-level accuracy was 92.95%. A matched comparison with Pistachio further indicated advantages in deduplicated record counts, representation granularity, and field-level exact agreement. The platform provides a Web research workbench for searching, filtering, comparing, and source-verifying records, and a Model Context Protocol (MCP) service offering AI agents composable structured retrieval tools. DianShi-RxnDB is available at https://dianshi.opendatalab.org.cn/ .

Achieving Olympiad-Level Geometry Large Language Model Agent via Complexity Boosting Reinforcement Learning

Large language model (LLM) agents exhibit strong mathematical problem-solving abilities and can even solve International Mathematical Olympiad (IMO) level problems with the assistance of formal proof systems. However, due to weak heuristics for auxiliary constructions, AI for geometry problem solving remains dominated by expert models such as AlphaGeometry 2, which rely heavily on large-scale data synthesis and search for both training and evaluation. In this work, we make the first attempt to build a medalist-level LLM agent for geometry and present InternGeometry. InternGeometry overcomes the heuristic limitations in geometry by iteratively proposing propositions and auxiliary constructions, verifying them with a symbolic engine, and reflecting on the engine's feedback to guide subsequent proposals. A dynamic memory mechanism enables InternGeometry to conduct more than two hundred interactions with the symbolic engine per problem. To further accelerate learning, we introduce Complexity-Boosting Reinforcement Learning (CBRL), which gradually increases the complexity of synthesized problems across training stages. Built on InternThinker-32B, InternGeometry solves 44 of 50 IMO geometry problems (2000-2024), exceeding the average gold medalist score (40.9), using only 13K training examples, just 0.004% of the data used by AlphaGeometry 2, demonstrating the potential of LLM agents on expert-level geometry tasks. InternGeometry can also propose novel auxiliary constructions for IMO problems that do not appear in human solutions.

OctoPipe: Reducing Pipeline Bubbles for Heterogeneous Models via Co-Optimizing Partitioning, Placement, and Scheduling

Pipeline parallelism is widely used to train large language models (LLMs). However, increasing heterogeneity in model architectures exacerbates pipeline bubbles, thereby reducing training efficiency. Prior approaches typically optimize a single phase of the pipeline schedule (i.e., partitioning, placement, or scheduling), leaving substantial pipeline bubbles. While promising, co-optimization poses three key challenges: (1) complex performance modeling, (2) a combinatorial search space, and (3) irregular execution orders. To address these challenges, we propose OctoPipe, a pipeline parallelism system to jointly optimize partitioning, placement, and scheduling. First, we build a graph-based pipeline simulator to model heterogeneous pipeline execution for co-optimization. Second, on top of the simulator, we develop an iterative bubble-aware tuner to efficiently explore the combinatorial search space. Third, we implement a unified pipeline executor that dynamically orchestrates computation and communication to support irregular execution orders without deadlocks while maximizing communication-computation overlap. Experiments show that OctoPipe achieves 1.09--1.49$\times$ throughput improvement over the state-of-the-art pipeline parallelism approaches across various heterogeneous model configurations and GPU cluster scales.

Uncovering Understanding-Generation Synergy in Native Unified Multimodal Models: From Representation, Task to System

While unified multimodal models (UMMs) jointly perform visual understanding and generation within a single model, functional unification does not guarantee learning synergy: the two objectives may reinforce each other, compete for capacity, or merely coexist. We investigate their relationship at the representation, task, and system levels in a controlled, structurally native setting without pretrained vision priors. At the representation level, we find that each objective provides useful signal to the other: generation enriches the visual features learned for understanding, while understanding strengthens vision--language alignment for generation. However, when both objectives are forced through the same computation path, one tends to dominate. A task-decoupled architecture that specializes conflicting visual computation while preserving semantic interaction avoids this asymmetric degradation. At the task level, through three case studies, we find positive bidirectional transfer when understanding and generation tasks rely on shared knowledge. At the system level, we show that an end-to-end UMM outperforms a matched planner--executor pipeline on complex tasks that explicitly require both image understanding and generation. Together, these results show that the value of UMMs extends beyond a unified interface: appropriate specialization, shared task knowledge, and end-to-end optimization can turn coexistence into synergy.

InternBootcamp: Boosting LLM Reasoning with Verifiable Task Scaling

Large language models (LLMs) have revolutionized artificial intelligence by enabling complex reasoning capabilities. While recent advancements in reinforcement learning (RL) have primarily focused on domain-specific reasoning tasks (e.g., mathematics or code generation), real-world reasoning scenarios often require models to handle diverse and complex environments that narrow-domain benchmarks cannot fully capture. To address this gap, we present InternBootcamp, an open-source framework comprising 1000+ domain-diverse task environments specifically designed for LLM reasoning research. With these bootcamps, we further establish Bootcamp-Eval, an automatically generated benchmark for comprehensive performance assessment. Evaluation reveals that frontier models still underperform in many reasoning tasks, while training with InternBootcamp provides an effective way to significantly improve performance, leading to our 32B model that achieves stateof-the-art results on Bootcamp-Eval and excels on other established benchmarks. In particular, we validate that consistent performance gain come from including more training tasks, namely task scaling, over two orders of magnitude, offering a promising route towards capable reasoning generalist. All data and code are publicly available.

MinerU.Chem: A High-Precision System for Optical Chemical Structure and Reaction Recognition

In organic chemistry papers and patents, molecular structures, reaction schemes, and experimental conditions are often presented as molecular structure depictions, reaction diagrams, and complex tables or figures. Such information is difficult for general-purpose document parsing systems to directly convert into machine-readable data. This limits data production for organic chemistry knowledge base construction and for AI for Chemistry tasks such as reaction prediction, retrosynthesis, condition recommendation, molecular property prediction, and drug molecule design. This report introduces MinerU-Chem, a document parsing system for organic chemistry literature integrated into the MinerU online platform. Built on top of MinerU's general document parsing pipeline, MinerU-Chem adds five chemistry-specific modules: chemistry relevance filtering, molecular structure detection, molecule identifier extraction, molecular structure recognition, and reaction scheme parsing. Together, these modules convert organic-chemistry-related image regions in documents into a Molecule Summary List and a Reaction Summary List. For molecular structure recognition, MinerU-Chem uses CARBON (Complex Atomic Representation and Bonding Object Notation) as its core representation. CARBON enables recognition results to preserve both the visual layout of the original image and complex chemical semantics, while supporting the export of standard downstream formats such as MolFile and SMILES. On the SMILES-evaluable subset of MolRecBench-Wild (N=2,392), MinerU-Chem's molecular structure recognition module achieves a SMILES exact-match accuracy of 93.02%, outperforming the best evaluated comparison system, GPT-5.6-Sol (74.87%), by 18.15 percentage points. The system has been integrated into the MinerU online platform and is available at https://mineru.net/OpenSourceTools/Extractor .

Intern-S2-Mobius: Foundation Model with Decoupled Knowledge and Reasoning

We introduce Mobius-v0, an architecture that comprises a globally shared Memory (FFN) that stores knowledge vectors and multiple Reasoners (Self-Attn) that iteratively achieve compositional reasoning. Using hidden states as cache and carrier, reasoners repeatedly query memory for required knowledge-vectors, while the knowledge is transmitted back to reasoning operators. Through this knowledge-reasoning-separation architecture, Mobius achieves better knowledge compression and reasoning efficiency. Built upon Mobius-v0 architecture: 1) Our 7B model trained-from-scratch achieves similar downstream score as a 7B Transformer baseline with 62.6% of baseline's training data. 2) Our Intern-S2-Mobius, continually-pretrained from Qwen3.5-35B, achieves similar downstream score while delivering nearly 4x end-to-end inference speedup.

HPSD: Hybrid-Policy Self-Distillation for Text-Image-to-Video Diffusion Models

Text-Image-to-Video (TI2V) models are an emerging unified architecture, where a single model simultaneously supports text-to-video (T2V) and image-to-video (I2V) generation. Given a high-quality first frame or a detailed textual prompt, TI2V models unlock substantially better visual quality than their T2V mode, raising a natural question: can the capability elicited by such privileged conditions be internalized into the model's own base generation ability? A common approach toward this goal is model self-distillation. However, the most straightforward solution, supervised fine-tuning, follows an off-policy strategy: its supervision is confined to teacher-generated endpoints from a fixed offline distribution rather than student-visited states, lacking precise correction tailored to the evolving policy. Recent on-policy distillation methods instead suffer from condition-state mismatch, where supervision is steered toward the given first frame instead of the student's actual content, misleading the correction. To achieve self-distillation that absorbs the teacher's privileged prior while retaining precise policy correction, in this work, we propose Hybrid-Policy Self-Distillation (HPSD), a novel self-distillation framework where a single TI2V model acts as both teacher and student under different conditions: the teacher operates in TI2V mode with a high-quality first frame and an enhanced prompt, while the student runs in the base T2V mode with only the vanilla prompt. Specifically, the student inherits off-policy teacher trajectory points as anchors, locally refines them toward its own policy, and finally receives velocity-level supervision on these self-generated roll-outs. Extensive experiments demonstrate that HPSD significantly improves T2V performance while also delivering notable TI2V gains, effectively strengthening the model's base generation ability.

Intern-S2-Preview: Scientific Agentic Foundation Model

Scientific discovery increasingly requires AI systems that can reason over scientific evidence of heterogeneous modalities, interact with scientific tools and environments, and sustain progress across long task horizons. We present Intern-S2-Preview, a series of scientific agentic foundation models designed to support multimodal scientific understanding, reasoning, generation, and long-horizon tasks. The training pipeline begins with scientific multimodal pre-training over rendered scientific documents, interleaved image-text data, and diverse scientific corpora. Starting from the pretrained checkpoint, we apply a unified post-training pipeline consisting of supervised fine-tuning, scalable multi-task reinforcement learning (RL), black- and white-box agentic RL, and on-policy distillation. This pipeline is supported by practical techniques that improve rollout and training stability and efficiency, including partial rollout with off-policy correction, adaptive length regularization, online speculative decoding, robust multi-task optimization, and trace-aware experience assembly for agentic tasks. At the architecture level, Intern-S2-Preview-397B extends time series modelling from efficient long-sequence understanding to numerical forecasting, while Memory Decoder is studied as a separate memory-augmented path for rapid scientific specialization without modifying the frozen 397B backbone. Evaluations across scientific, multimodal, agentic, and general-purpose benchmarks show that Intern-S2-Preview-397B achieves competitive or leading results in multiple settings. The time series modules improve scientific signal understanding and forecasting on SciTS, while the separate Intern-MemDec-4B extension improves the Biology-Instructions average score from 56.92 to 60.32 without modifying the frozen 397B backbone.

Intern-S1-MO: Long-horizon Reasoning Agent for Olympiad?Level Mathematical Problem Solving

Large Reasoning Models (LRMs) have expanded the mathematical reasoning frontier through Chain-of-Thought (CoT) techniques and Reinforcement Learning with Verifiable Rewards (RLVR), capable of solving AIME-level problems. However, the performance of LRMs is heavily dependent on the extended reasoning context length. For solving ultra-hard problems like those in the International Mathematical Olympiad (IMO), the required reasoning complexity surpasses the space that an LRM can explore in a single round. Previous works attempt to extend the reasoning context of LRMs but remain prompt-based and built upon proprietary models, lacking systematic structures and training pipelines. Therefore, this paper introduces Intern-S1-MO, a long-horizon math agent that conducts multi-round hierarchical reasoning, composed of an LRM-based multi-agent system including reasoning, summary, and verification. By maintaining a compact memory in the form of lemmas, Intern-S1-MO can more freely explore the lemma-rich reasoning spaces in multiple reasoning stages, thereby breaking through the context constraints for IMO-level math problems. Furthermore, we propose OREAL-H, an RL framework for training the LRM using the online explored trajectories to simultaneously bootstrap the reasoning ability of LRM and elevate the overall performance of Intern-S1-MO. Experiments show that Intern-S1-MO can obtain 26 out of 35 points on the non-geometry problems of IMO2025, matching the performance of silver medalists. It also surpasses the current advanced LRMs on inference benchmarks such as HMMT2025, AIME2025, and CNMO2025. In addition, our agent officially participates in CMO2025 and achieves a score of 102/126 under the judgment of human experts, reaching the gold medal level.

Demystifying Video Reasoning

Recent advances in video generation have revealed an unexpected phenomenon: diffusion-based video models exhibit non-trivial reasoning capabilities. Prior work attributes this to a Chain-of-Frames (CoF) mechanism, where reasoning is assumed to unfold sequentially across video frames. In this work, we challenge this assumption and uncover a fundamentally different mechanism. We show that reasoning in video models instead primarily emerges along the diffusion denoising steps. Through qualitative analysis and targeted probing experiments, we find that models explore multiple candidate solutions in early denoising steps and progressively converge to a final answer, a process we term Chain-of-Steps (CoS). Beyond this core mechanism, we identify several emergent reasoning behaviors critical to model performance: (1) working memory that supports tasks requiring consistent reference, such as object permanence; (2) self-correction and enhancement, allowing recovery from incorrect intermediate solutions; and (3) perception before action, where early steps establish semantic grounding and later steps perform structured manipulation. Moreover, analysis of Diffusion Transformer layers shows that middle layers conduct key reasoning procedures. Motivated by these insights, we present a simple Training-Free Ensemble (TFE) as a proof-of-concept, demonstrating how reasoning can be improved by ensembling latent trajectories from identical models with different random seeds. Overall, our work provides the first systematic dissection of the mechanisms underlying video reasoning, offering a foundation to guide future research in better exploiting the inherent reasoning dynamics of video models as a new substrate for intelligence.

KAI: A Kinematic-Aware Interface for Data-Efficient Articulated Object Manipulation

Articulated object manipulation requires an understanding of kinematic structure that is difficult and costly to learn from robot demonstrations alone. We introduce the Kinematic-Aware Articulation Interface (KAI), a structured intermediate representation that captures the kinematic structure of articulated objects. By embedding interpretable geometric and kinematic priors into policy learning, KAI provides a strong inductive bias aligned with the underlying structure of articulated motion. This design effectively improves sample efficiency, with gains particularly pronounced in low-data regimes: across six simulation tasks, our method achieves an average success rate of 82.9%, matching or surpassing baseline performance while using only half the demonstration data. Our method also exhibits robust generalization to unseen backgrounds and visual distractors, transferring from a single clean training environment to cluttered real-world scenes. KAI's action-agnostic design further enables co-training with human interaction videos to enhance real-world robustness: under diverse visual distractions, our method with video co-training achieves over 70% average success rate.

CameraAnything: Refilming Videos with Arbitrary Camera Control

We introduce CameraAnything, the first unified framework for camera controlled video editing that enables joint control of both intrinsic and extrinsic camera parameters. Existing approaches either rely on expensive 3D reconstruction to achieve full camera functionality or restrict editing to extrinsic parameter manipulation. Moreover, the coupled influence of intrinsic and extrinsic parameters on video appearance makes disentangled modeling particularly challenging. To address this, we adopt per-pixel Plücker ray injection alongside resolution-aware 3D RoPE in self-attention, building both camera conditioning and spatial positional encoding on the target latent to jointly control camera position, focal length, and native resolution editing without cropping or outpainting. To overcome the scarcity of paired training data, we further develop a scalable synthetic pipeline that constructs diverse dynamic scenes through structured multi-camera recording and generates synchronized videos with varied camera configurations. With a tailored orthogonal training strategy, CameraAnything enables expressive video reshooting with arbitrary viewpoint control, focal length adjustment, resolution adaptation, and multi-shot transitions within a single generation process, offering strong practical value for cinematic video editing and cross-platform content adaptation in video production.

SGMD: Score Gradient Matching Distillation for Few-Step Video Diffusion Distillation

Distribution Matching Distillation (DMD) is a widely used paradigm for accelerating inference in few-step video diffusion models. However, DMD-style video distillation faces two coupled challenges: the fake score must track a continuously evolving generator, making training costly when frequent updates are required, while reverse-KL-style matching can be mode-seeking and conservative for preserving strong motion dynamics. To address these issues, we propose \textbf{Score Gradient Matching Distillation (SGMD)}. SGMD adopts a fake-score perspective by directly optimizing the fake score toward the teacher, while using teacher stop-gradient Fisher as a stable distribution-matching objective. We provide a gradient analysis that motivates this objective choice under ideal tracking. Building on this, SGMD introduces a pair of dual potentials: negative-residual (NR) for outer-loop correction and residual-contraction (RC) for inner-loop tracking. Empirically, compared to DMD2, SGMD achieves an approximately $\sim 3\times$ training speedup and substantially improves motion dynamics for 4-step distilled models while preserving temporal consistency. A human study confirms that SGMD is preferred in motion quality and overall preference, while visual quality and text alignment remain comparable.

Scaling Behavior Foundation Model for Humanoid Robots

Humanoid control requires natural whole-body coordination, precise real-time responses to control signals, and robust generalization across diverse environmental contexts, making it a cornerstone for generalist embodied agents. Behavior Foundation Models (BFMs) have recently emerged as a promising solution to address these challenges by leveraging large-scale behavioral data to achieve superior expressiveness, versatility and generalization. However, despite growing interest in scaling BFMs to further improve their capabilities, it remains unclear how key factors, including the learning paradigm, behavioral data and model architecture should be coordinated to enable effective scaling. In this work, we revisit the scaling recipe for BFMs and demonstrate that substantial performance gains can be achieved through the coordination of three core components: 1) the learning paradigm of motion tracking that reformulates diverse humanoid control problems as the reproduction of integrated whole-body behaviors in the global frame; 2) the strategic synergy between on-policy rollout quantity and reference motion diversity; and 3) the expressive and scalable model architecture termed Humanoid Transformer that facilitates the natural emergence of structured behavioral representations. Through extensive experiments in both simulation and real-world deployment, we demonstrate that our approach yields significant improvements in control fidelity and task generalization, reducing Mean Per-Keypoint Position Error (MPKPE) on the test set by over 10% in local mode and 82% in global mode compared with existing humanoid controllers. These results establish BFM as a principled and effective foundation for scalable and general-purpose humanoid control.

Scaling the Horizon, Not the Parameters: Reaching Trillion-Parameter Performance with a 35B Agent

We introduce Agents-A1, a 35B Mixture-of-Experts Agentic Model that reaches trillion-parameter-level performance by scaling the agent horizon. We investigate agent-horizon scaling from two perspectives: scaling long-horizon trajectories and scaling heterogeneous agent abilities. To support this goal, we build a long-horizon knowledge-action infrastructure that connects external knowledge, actions, observations, and verifier outcomes, producing agentic trajectories with an average length of 45K tokens. Based on this, we train Agents-A1 with a three-stage recipe. First, we perform full-domain supervised fine-tuning to align the base model with broad agentic behaviors. Second, we train domain-level teacher models to capture specialized expertise in each domain. Third, we propose a multi-teacher domain-routed on-policy distillation with salient vocabulary alignment to improve knowledge transfer efficiency across different domains, unifying six heterogeneous domains into one deployable student model. Agents-A1 achieves strong and broad performance for long-horizon agent benchmarks. Compared with 1T-parameter model such as Kimi-K2.6 and DeepSeek-V4-pro, Agents-A1 achieves leading results on SEAL-0 (56.4), IFBench (80.6), HiPhO (46.4), FrontierScience-Olympiad (79.0), and MolBench-Bind (56.8), and remains highly competitive on SciCode (44.3), HLE (47.6) and BrowseComp (75.5). We hope this work provides the community with a practical path for scaling the horizon using a 35B agent that can reach or match the performance of 1T models on long-horizon tasks.
