Step-dLLM: Adaptive Step-aware Sparse Attention for Efficient Diffusion LLM Inference

Diffusion large language models (dLLMs) generate tokens in parallel via iterative denoising, but their bidirectional attention prevents the KV caching used by autoregressive models and recomputes the full attention map at every step, incurring quadratic per-step cost. Existing sparse attention methods for dLLMs construct a sparse mask after an initial full-attention warm-up and reuse it for the remaining steps, while allocating the sparsity budget uniformly across heads. We argue both choices ignore key structural properties of attention in dLLMs: empirically, attention patterns are only locally consistent across steps and shift abruptly at certain transitions, and different heads concentrate their attention mass to very different extents. To this end, we design Step-dLLM, which periodically refreshes a block-sparse mask at anchor steps along the denoising trajectory and reuses it within each locally consistent interval, while employing a head-adaptive global budget that more aggressively compresses heads with concentrated attention. Backed by a fused IO-aware Triton kernel for block-sparse attention, Step-dLLM applies to pre-trained LLaDA-1.5 and Dream-7B-Instruct without retraining, achieving a 2.78x end-to-end speedup over dense FlashAttention on LLaDA-1.5 at 8K context with 256 denoising steps and 90% sparsity, while improving the accuracy-latency trade-off over prior sparse-attention methods.

InHabit: Scaling 3D Human-Scene Interaction Data With Image Foundation Models

Embodied AI and human-centric 3D scene understanding require data of people meaningfully interacting with diverse environments, yet such data remains scarce. Real-world capture has steadily pushed toward more scenes, but is bound to studios and at most around a hundred scenes, while synthetic datasets scale easily but place people without regard to what the scene affords. We argue that useful human-scene interaction data requires diversity in both scenes and interactions, and we show this with our proposed data engine InHabit. InHabit is a fully automatic engine that renders an existing 3D scene, uses 2D foundation models to propose and depict context-appropriate interactions, and lifts them into SMPL-X bodies, where the known scene geometry makes lifting well-constrained. Applied to Habitat-Matterport3D, InHabit produces InHabitants, which pairs photorealistic images with SMPL-X bodies and complete scene geometry across ~6.6k rooms, about 60x more scenes than the largest captured dataset. We illustrate the quality and value of such large-scale human-scene interaction data through a variety of experiments. In a perceptual study, our interactions are preferred over two prior placement methods in 78% of cases. Across three tasks - 1) contact estimation, 2) human-scene reconstruction, and 3) generating humans in scenes - training with InHabitants outperforms training on synthetic data with exact ground truth (BEDLAM), motion-capture data (TRUMANS), and real RGB-D captures (PROX); e.g., GRAFT trained on InHabitants reaches a contact F1 of 0.594 on PROX, versus 0.492 when trained on PROX itself.

Towards Generalizing Pretrained All-Atom Representations to Unified Binder Design

PairFormer-based all-atom models demonstrate strong capabilities in biomolecular binder design. However, existing methods often use all-atom representations for modality-specific binder design, such as protein and peptide design. In contrast, recent geometric latent diffusion models pursue unified binder design by representing molecular blocks from different modalities in a shared latent space. These complementary strengths motivate us to investigate how to generalize the use of pretrained all-atom representations to unified binder design. We introduce PairFuse, a parameter-efficient method that enables this generalization through representation fusion. Specifically, we use lightweight layerwise adapters to integrate pretrained all-atom representations into an independently pretrained geometric latent diffusion model. Our adapters integrate pretrained all-atom representations through two mechanisms: enriching the diffusion model's molecular block features and incorporating pairwise structural information into the geometric diffusion model's denoiser. Theoretically, we prove that the augmented denoiser preserves geometry and pairwise attention fusion provides additional attention expressivity beyond feature-only fusion. Experimentally, across antibody, peptide, and small molecule binder-design benchmarks, PairFuse achieves stronger performance than the pretrained diffusion model and existing representation-fusion baselines.

Extending Reconstruction: Reconstruction-to-Vector Diffusion for Hyperspectral Anomaly Detection

While Hyperspectral Anomaly Detection (HAD) excels at identifying sparse targets in complex scenes, existing models remain trapped in a scalar "reconstruction-as-endpoint" paradigm. This reliance on ambiguous scalar residuals consistently triggers sub-pixel anomaly vanishing during spatial downsampling, alongside severe confirmation bias when unpurified anomalies corrupt training weights. In this paper, we propose Reconstruction-to-Vector Diffusion (R2VD), which fundamentally redefines reconstruction as a manifold purification origin to establish a novel residual-guided generative dynamics paradigm. Our framework introduces a four-stage pipeline: (1) a Physical Prior Extraction (PPE) stage that mitigates early confirmation bias via dual-stream statistical guidance; (2) a Guided Manifold Purification (GMP) stage utilizing an OmniContext Autoencoder (OCA) to extract purified residual maps while preserving fragile sub-pixel topologies; (3) a Residual Score Modeling (RSM) stage where a Diffusion Transformer (DiT), guarded by a Physical Spectral Firewall (PSF), effectively isolates cross-spectral leakage; and (4) a Vector Dynamics Inference (VDI) stage that robustly decouples targets from backgrounds by evaluating high-dimensional vector interference patterns instead of conventional scalar errors. Comprehensive evaluations on eight datasets confirm that R2VD establishes a new state-of-the-art, delivering exceptional target detectability and background suppression.

MFSA: A Multi-Format Systolic Array with Native Micro Scaling Support

AI workloads increasingly employ low-precision formats such as BF16 / FP16, FP8 variants, FP4, Micro Scaling (MX), and INT modes across models, layers, and execution stages to balance accuracy, memory footprint, and throughput, which in turn requires hardware to support these formats in a flexible and efficient way. We present MFSA, a weight-stationary multi-format systolic array that achieves area efficiency through two architectural choices. At the PE level, MFSA uses dot-product-accumulator-based processing elements extended from an existing open-source trans-precision FPU to support reduced-precision formats (FP32/FP16/BF16/CFP8/FP4/INT16/INT8/INT4) with a shared datapath and proportional throughput scaling. At the array level, MFSA employs Online Block-Scale Rebasing (OBSR) for block-scaled formats, which folds each block scale into the running FP32 partial sum at block boundaries without adding a second cross-block accumulator, thereby reducing the additional overhead of block-scaling support. In TSMC 28 nm at 1 GHz, matched-throughput BF16/FP8/FP4 cascaded FMA-PE baselines are 1.5x/2.5x/4.5x larger than the single-format DPA-PE, the gap growing with subword parallelism. A routed 16x16 MFSA reaches a peak 0.5/1/2/4 TOPS of FP32/BF16/FP8/FP4, and OBSR cuts the incremental MX overhead by 64.2% in area and 67.5% in energy versus a naive MX implementation baseline, without hurting the numerical stability on real LLM traces. Adding support for all other formats based on a BF16+CFP8 systolic array costs 25.7% additional area. OBSR also extends to non-power-of-two block scales: folding the fractional part of an E4M3 scale into the MFPE dot product supports NVFP4 alongside OCP MX for 11.8% area and 7.3% power over a CFP8+FP4 base, less than half the cost of a naive implementation.

ReasoningShield: Safety Detection over Reasoning Traces of Large Reasoning Models

Large Reasoning Models (LRMs) leverage explicit reasoning traces, known as Chain-of-Thought (CoT) reasoning, to decompose complex problems into intermediate steps before deriving final answers. However, these reasoning traces introduce unique safety challenges: harmful content can be embedded in intermediate steps even when final answers appear benign. Our study reveals that existing state-of-the-art moderation tools experience significant performance degradation on CoT moderation, with F1 scores dropping by up to 35.2% compared to traditional answer moderation. To address these challenges, we present ReasoningShield, a comprehensive benchmark and a suite of strong lightweight models for CoT safety moderation. Our benchmark includes 9.2K annotated (Query, CoT) pairs with structured stepwise risk analysis, consisting of a 7K-sample training set and a 2.2K human-annotated test set, spanning 10 risk categories, 3 safety levels, and 8 LRMs with diverse reasoning paradigms. To further demonstrate the utility of the benchmark, we develop lightweight models with 1B/3B parameters using a two-stage training strategy. Our models achieve 91.8% F1 on our benchmark, substantially outperforming leading tools such as LlamaGuard-4 by 35.6% and commercial models such as GPT-4o by 15.8%, while generalizing effectively across diverse reasoning paradigms and unseen scenarios.

CacheFlex: Direct Software-Managed Access to Higher-Level Cache for Scalable Vector Support

Wider vector/SIMD lanes multiply compute throughput, but cache improvements remain challenging. We identify L1 data cache capacity as the most impactful parameter for performance and efficiency. L1 capacity is constrained by pipeline coupling and latency requirements; private L2 offers an order of magnitude more capacity but is inaccessible from software. This work proposes CacheFlex, an ISA and microarchitecture co-design that enables software-managed, direct access to private L2 SRAM by allowing runtime conversion of parts of L2 into a scratchpad memory (SPM). Through a lightweight ISA extension, software explicitly controls data placement and lifetime within the L2. CacheFlex integrates into an out-of-order pipeline with cross-domain memory consistency and OS context-switch support, with merely 2.02% area overhead relative to the L2 in a post-layout 12 nm implementation. We prototype CacheFlex based on the Armv8-A SVE ISA, model it in gem5, and evaluate it using optimized general matrix multiplication (GEMM) kernels with diverse model-derived shapes, FlashAttention-based fused attention, and full-layer workloads from LLaMA-3.2-1B and BERT-Base in the prefill phase. As the vector length (VL) scales from VL = 4 (512-bit) to VL = 16 (2048-bit), CacheFlex's kernel-level geometric-mean speedup and memory-subsystem energy reduction grow from 1.12x and 26% to 1.44x and 40%, respectively, bridging the widening gap between per-instruction data demand and memory performance. On full transformer layers combining CacheFlex with FlashAttention, the design delivers up to 1.78x speedup and 45% memory-subsystem energy savings (BERT-Base, sequence length T=4096, VL = 16; LLaMA-3.2-1B: 1.64x and 38%). CacheFlex is complementary to hardware prefetching, and its benefit grows as vector width and peak compute throughput increase for compute-intensive AI kernels.

DynaTE: Accelerating Diffusion LLMs via Dynamic Token Execution

Diffusion-based LLMs (dLLMs) have recently emerged as a promising alternative to autoregressive (AR) LLMs by enabling bidirectional parallel refinement, alleviating the sequential decoding bottleneck of AR generation. However, their parallel iterative refinement mismatches AR accelerators optimized for sequential decoding and their discrete token generation differs from DiT accelerators designed for continuous denoising. Recent dLLM accelerators have explored workload-specific optimizations to reduce vocabulary processing overhead and redundant computation across denoising iterations. However, these approaches retain all tokens in parallel execution, despite varying token refinement utility and execution requirements. This paper presents DynaTE, a hardware--software co-design architecture that dynamically adapts accelerator execution to evolving token states during dLLM decoding. DynaTE first enables adaptive token execution by skipping low-utility token computation, while a dimension-reconfigurable PE array maintains high utilization under varying active-token patterns. Second, DynaTE exploits dynamic token dependencies through FLDD to refine a small number of locally dependent tokens within the current iteration, reducing the overall number of denoising iterations, while a Merge--Split--Merge dataflow hides the resulting serial overhead. Third, a streaming vocabulary engine interleaves multiple token streams from the LM head to accommodate irregular output variations caused by selective token computation and uneven vocabulary-selection demands. Evaluated on two representative dLLMs, DynaTE achieves 2.05--2.78$\times$ speedup and 2.99--3.93$\times$ higher energy efficiency over state-of-the-art dLLM accelerators, while delivering 2.55$\times$ speedup and 6.07$\times$ higher energy efficiency over Jetson AGX Orin.

Realization of quantum spin Hall insulator superlattice with emergent multigap-like helical edge states

The functional quantum spin Hall insulators (QSHI), protected by time-reversal symmetry against single-particle backscattering, hold great promise for dissipationless quantum electronics. Realization of QSHI with gapped helical edge states, which would enable deterministic on/off switching of the edge-channel conductance, is a key requirement for programmable topological circuits. Here, we report realization of superlattice-modulated QSHI HfTe5 hosting emergent multigap-like helical edge states. Using scanning tunneling microscopy and spectroscopy, we identify a reconstruction-induced periodic superlattice modulation in epitaxial monolayer HfTe5 and directly observe multiple gap-like features in the edge channel, accompanied by a series of sharp peaks in the density of states. Combined with theoretical modelling, we attribute the observed edge gap to the finite-width coupling between the two edges significantly enhanced by the superlattice modulation, whereas the sharp peaks are the manifestations of mini-gaps opening at the reduced Brillouin zone boundaries by the periodic modulation of spin-orbit coupling. Notably, these sharp peaks exhibit clear Zeeman splitting under magnetic fields, consistent with the helical nature of the topological edge states. Our results establish a viable route to engineering gapped helical edge states in QSHI and provide a promising platform for topological devices with desired on/off switchability.

Your Temporal Link Predictor Is Blind to Who Is Active: A Missing Factor That Transfers Across Models

An interaction has two parts: someone decides to act, and then chooses whom to act on. Temporal link prediction has concentrated on the second, and we show that it is blind to the first by construction: a standard negative keeps the real source and swaps the destination, and we prove that this cancels the source's activity exactly from the optimal score, so no model trained and evaluated this way is ever rewarded for learning it. Under the harder historical and inductive negatives, whose sources differ, the same factor becomes the dominant signal. We model it with Source Node Activity Modeling (SNAM), a self-exciting event intensity fitted by an exact point-process likelihood to decayed interaction counts the history states already contain; it has fewer than 20 parameters. On their own, never looking at the destination, these parameters beat DyGFormer and TPNet on four of five datasets under historical negatives. Added to the frozen scores of TPNet, TGN, DyGFormer and DSRD, four models of different design, without retraining anything, they raise AP on almost every backbone-dataset pair in both settings, by up to 25 points. Our full model ranks first overall against eleven baselines on 13 datasets and three protocols, and on million-event streams trains an epoch 9-100x faster than TPNet and DyGFormer. We conclude that source activity is a blind spot of temporal link prediction, and a cheap, transferable one to close.

SymRegFlow: Symmetry-Regularized Flow Matching for Video World Models

Flow-matching-based multi-view world models generate realistic videos, but are commonly restricted to fixed camera rigs. Extending them to continuously varying camera poses requires paired pose--video observations with dense pose coverage, which are costly to acquire. We introduce \emph{SymRegFlow}, a symmetry-regularized flow-matching framework for multi-view-consistent video generation across continuous viewpoints without ground-truth novel-view RGB supervision. For each target pose, SymRegFlow geometrically warps source views into noisy anchors and combines masked dual-anchor supervision with cross-anchor denoising-output consistency to mitigate anchor-specific errors. Under an affine Gaussian surrogate, we prove that suitable consistency regularization recovers the clean-reference optimum at fixed noise levels, strictly outperforming single- and merged-anchor baselines. Experiments on Cosmos-Drive-Dreams and nuScenes demonstrate high-quality, multi-view-consistent autonomous-driving video generation: on nuScenes, SymRegFlow achieves the lowest FVD and FVMD among the evaluated baselines, reducing FVD by over 31\% relative to the best baseline, and source-conditioned inference also attains the best FID and instance preservation.

SPINE: Bridging the Cyber-Physical Gap with Agentic AI

Foundation models give robots powerful high-level reasoning, yet turning that intelligence into reliable physical action remains difficult: roboticists must still align device drivers, network interfaces, sensors, controllers, and safety constraints for each platform. This often-overlooked integration layer acts as the robot's spinal cord, translating high-level intent into coordinated physical behavior, and remains a primary bottleneck for scalable Embodied AI. Hence, we propose SPINE (Scalable Physical Integration with ageNtic Expertise), an agentic framework for systematically debugging and deploying bimanual robots for teleoperation. SPINE centers on two subagent-driven workflows: a profile builder that compiles robot-specific context and a debugger that uses that context to iterate through diagnosis, repair, and validation until teleoperation succeeds. Across two bimanual robot platforms and 12 debugging scenarios, novice-operated SPINE achieved more complete and efficient recovery than human operators using Claude Code. On DOBOT X-Trainer, SPINE improved success from 76% to 100% and reduced mean time-to-teleoperation by 30\%; on AgileX PiPER, SPINE also achieved 100\% success and reduced mean time-to-teleoperation by 38%. These results show that structured agentic debugging can address a key cyber-physical integration bottleneck in real-world robot deployment.

ShapleyLaw: A Game-Theoretic Approach to Multilingual Scaling Laws

In multilingual pretraining, the test loss of a pretrained model is heavily influenced by the proportion of each language in the pretraining data, namely the \textit{language mixture ratios}. Multilingual scaling laws can predict the test loss under different language mixture ratios and can therefore be used to estimate the optimal ratios. However, the current approaches to multilingual scaling laws do not measure the \textit{cross-lingual transfer} effect, resulting in suboptimal mixture ratios. In this paper, we consider multilingual pretraining as a cooperative game in which each language acts as a player that jointly contributes to pretraining, gaining the resulting reduction in test loss as the payoff. Consequently, from the perspective of cooperative game theory, we quantify the cross-lingual transfer from each language by its contribution in the game, and propose a game-theoretic multilingual scaling law called \textit{ShapleyLaw}. Our experiments show that ShapleyLaw outperforms baseline methods in model performance prediction and language mixture optimization.

MATE: Policy-Aware Security Auditing for Mobile Agents via Synthesis-Driven Trajectory Learning

Mobile agents powered by foundation models now automate complex, multi-step workflows on real devices, but their trajectories can violate app-specific security policies. Existing trajectory-level defenses rely on LLM prompting or rigid rules, and thus fail to support fine-grained, natural-language policies that generalize across apps and tasks. In this work, we introduce MATE, a lightweight, policy-conditioned auditor that encodes both agent trajectories and natural-language security policies to determine whether a trajectory violates a given policy and to explain why. Treating policies as editable text rather than fixed model parameters allows MATE to handle user-defined and evolving requirements without retraining. To construct MATE, we build a knowledge base by extracting app descriptions, workflows, and policies from hundreds of popular mobile apps worldwide, and synthesizing over 140K semantically realistic, policy-conditioned trajectories with a multi-stage pipeline. We further release MATEBench, a trajectory-level auditing benchmark with two synthetic subsets and one real-world subset of manually collected trajectories. Models trained with our synthesis-driven trajectory learning achieve over 95% accuracy on MATEBench, retain strong performance on external safety benchmarks, and audit trajectories from Zhipu's AutoGLM and Alibaba's Mobile-Agent on real devices with over 95% accuracy, outperforming prior methods by over 20%. MATE shows that practical, fine-grained security auditing for heterogeneous mobile agents is both feasible and effective.

OmniTable: A Unified Wide-Table System for Petabyte-Scale LLM Data Curation and Exploration

Data curation is a critical bottleneck in industrial-grade LLM development, where petabyte-scale unstructured corpora are scattered across hundreds of physical tables, feature engineering relies on manual, table-centric pipeline orchestration, and data lineage is largely absent. We present OmniTable as an architecture blueprint for a unified wide-table layer built on Logical Unification, Physical Separation, targeting petabyte-scale LLM data curation and exploration. OmniTable makes four contributions: (1) a unified wide-table abstraction that consolidates multi-source heterogeneous data and thousands of derived features under a single logical schema via logical-physical mapping; (2) declarative feature lifecycle management that automates dependency resolution, execution planning, operator fusion, and lineage tracking, replacing manual pipeline orchestration with a "declare-and-execute" paradigm; (3) an adaptive execution engine with autonomous governance that achieves stable PB-scale feature backfill through heterogeneous compute routing (CPU/GPU), adaptive tuning, UDF-level fault tolerance, and automated storage layout optimization; and (4) hybrid-accelerated data exploration combining a global ID index, transparent OLAP offloading, and background materialized views to deliver second-level point lookups and filtered exports exceeding 20 TB/hour. In production, OmniTable manages over 35 PB of training data across web, code, PDF, and SFT domains, reducing the human-in-the-loop curation cycle from approximately 14 days to approximately 2.5 days (5.6x over the pre-OmniTable production workflow), with consistent feature versioning, auditable lineage, and minimal manual intervention.

AnnotateAnything: Automatic Annotation of 3D Assets for Robot Manipulation

Simulation enables scalable robot data collection, but raw 3D assets provide only geometry, lacking the semantic, interactive, and physical knowledge needed to specify where and how robots should act. In this work, we present AnnotateAnything, a general automatic annotation framework that converts passive 3D assets into manipulation-ready assets with structured, diverse, and executable manipulation labels. AnnotateAnything is built around two complementary pipelines. First, a unified visual-language annotation pipeline using vision-language reasoning to infer object semantics, interaction constraints, and 3D-grounded cues, providing human-prior guidance for identifying meaningful interaction regions. Second, a fully automatic and massively parallel physics annotation pipeline grounds these priors in each asset's geometry and physical constraints through candidate generation, geometry optimization and trajectory generation. This pipeline produces diverse and executable action annotations, including grasp poses, dexterous contacts, articulation waypoints, insertion directions, hanging affordances, and navigation targets. Using the generated annotations, we further build an asynchronous parallel simulation data-collection system across diverse objects, tasks, and robot embodiments. Experiments demonstrate that AnnotateAnything achieves superior annotation efficiency, data-collection efficiency, and task success rates over existing annotation and data-generation pipelines, while also supporting downstream tasks such as affordance detection, robotic VQA, and visual instruction finetuning. We provide project materials on the project page and plan to release the full code, annotations, and benchmark to facilitate future research. Videos, code, demo assets, and annotations are provided in supplementary materials Project page: https://tourmaline-caramel-169490.netlify.app.

MagicSim: A Unified Infrastructure for Executable Embodied Interaction

Robot learning and embodied agents now require simulation to serve as a shared execution substrate linking control, skills, and planning, not only as a renderer, controller testbed, or fixed task environment. Existing pipelines split these layers with "magic" actions, disconnected training environments, or forward-only renders that cannot reproduce, evaluate, and annotate the same episode. We present MagicSim, an embodied interaction infrastructure built around one deterministic batched runtime and a shared Markov decision process (MDP). From YAML-first specifications that decouple contents, placement, behavior, and agent exposure, MagicSim constructs diverse executable worlds spanning task families, interaction regimes, physics, layouts, sensors, avatars, and robot embodiments in one reset-and-step loop. A common execution interface grounds high-level commands through controllers, atomicskills, planner primitives, and asynchronous planning, realizing them as robot actions rather than simulator-side state edits. One task definition supports three capabilities: benchmark and RL evaluation, an autocollect interface that automatically turns commands into grounded trajectories, and agent/VLM-facing interaction. For automatic execution, commands flow through a Command->Skill->Planner->Robot->Record pipeline, while per-environment command, skill, planning, retry, annotation, and episode states advance independently above the shared physics tick. Successful rollouts are saved as structured multimodal trajectories aligning language supervision, action representations, visual/geometric representations, and task-level status with the executed episode. MagicSim thus unifies diverse world construction, embodied execution, task evaluation, automatic rollout generation, and interactive agent interfaces in one planner-in-the-loop runtime.

Modulation of charge density waves in a twisted vortex moire superlattice

Twisted moire superlattices in van-der-Waals heterostructures provide a powerful platform for engineering correlated states through moire-band reconstruction. However, whether globally coherent electronic orders can be continuously manipulated at the nanoscale remains largely unexplored. Reconstructed moire structures in small-angle and near-commensurate regime feature continuously varying local environments, offering new opportunities for nanoscale manipulation of correlated phases. Here, we report the modulation of charge density wave (CDW) states in a twisted vortex moire superlattice formed between monolayer VTe2 and superconducting NbSe2. Scanning tunneling microscopy/spectroscopy reveals that the intrinsic long-range CDW of monolayer VTe2 is reconstructed into inequivalent local phases with distinct stability and coherence within a single moire unit cell, including suppressed CDW order and enhanced short-range CDW correlations persisting to room temperature. First-principles calculations show that the reconstructed CDW landscape originates from strong local strain variation, where compressive strain substantially stabilizes the charge order. Furthermore, the modulated CDW states exhibit competing interplay with proximity-induced superconductivity. Our results establish vortex moire superlattices as a versatile platform for nanoscale manipulation of correlated electronic orders in low-dimensional quantum materials.
