Behavior-Skill: A Fine-Grained Benchmark for Evaluating Vision-Language-Action Policies in Long-Horizon Tasks

Reliable execution of long-horizon mobile manipulation tasks remains challenging because overall task success depends on the successful completion of multiple constituent skills. Existing benchmarks, however, still rely primarily on full-task rollouts and aggregate task-level metrics, making intermediate failures difficult to observe and analyze. We present Behavior-Skill, a benchmark that reformulates the learning and evaluation of long-horizon tasks around executable constituent skills. It contains 235,492 skill instances from 10,000 demonstrations across 50 household tasks and 34 semantic skill categories. Each instance pairs a skill instruction with an aligned observation-action segment, and is further associated with a restorable intermediate state and a skill success condition to enable independent evaluation under valid preconditions. We further introduce trajectory-level and skill-level metrics to characterize policy capability beyond aggregate task success. Extensive experiments across representative VLA policies including pi0.5 and GR00T on the complete 50-task benchmark show that failures are highly non-uniform across skills, with contact-rich manipulation skills forming persistent bottlenecks. These results demonstrate that Behavior-Skill complements full-task evaluation by exposing intermediate capability profiles for analyzing and improving long-horizon VLA policies.

TuringLLM: Efficiently Scaling Foundation Models Toward Physical AI

We present Turing-20B-A2B, a 20B-parameter Mixture-of-Experts language model that activates approximately 2B parameters per token, designed for long-context and latency-sensitive physical AI applications. The model adopts Quantile Routing in a dynamic top-k configuration, enabling token-adaptive expert allocation while maintaining balanced expert utilization and a controlled average compute budget. During deployment, we further apply capacity-constrained routing to prompt prefill for more regular and efficient expert execution, while retaining dropless routing during pretraining. Turing-20B-A2B also employs a hybrid attention architecture that combines Lightning Attention with a small number of full-attention layers for efficient long-context modeling. The model is pretrained with a progressive three-stage curriculum and extended to a native context length of 128K through continued pretraining, with further inference-time extension to 512K using YaRN. Despite its compact active-parameter budget, Turing-20B-A2B achieves, at the base-model stage, overall general capability exceeding Qwen3-8B Base and approaching Qwen3.5-9B Base, while maintaining strong long-context performance and favorable prefill-latency scaling. These results demonstrate an effective balance among model capability, long-context scalability, and practical inference efficiency.

Revisiting Local Context for Long-Horizon Streaming 3D Reconstruction

Streaming 3D reconstruction from extremely long videos requires estimating camera motion and scene geometry online under bounded memory and computation. Early streaming models achieve causal, bounded-cost inference using finite context buffers or compact recurrent states, yet their estimates often deteriorate as sequences grow. Recent methods improve long-horizon stability by coupling short-range context with persistent or multi-level long-range memory. We pursue a different route: we keep the learned temporal state strictly local and formulate predictions whose targets remain independent of sequence length. We present ABot-Recon, a simple streaming model that caches KV features from only the preceding 11 frames. It predicts a point map in the current camera coordinate system together with an adjacent-frame relative pose. These predictions remain equivariant under changes of reference frame, and global poses and geometry are recovered through sequential composition. To reduce accumulated drift, a lightweight temporal refiner improves relative rotations using recent visual and motion context, while a composition-aware pose loss supervises multi-step pose composition. Extensive evaluations on challenging long-sequence benchmarks demonstrate the superior long-horizon performance of our local-context approach. On Oxford Spires, ABot-Recon achieves an ATE of 4.35 m and an RPE-R of $0.12^\circ$, reducing both errors by approximately 40\% relative to the best prior results.
