Satellite Navigation: A Transmitting Intelligent Surface (TIS)-aided Indoor System

A transmitting intelligent surfaces (TISs) aided satellite indoor navigation system is investigated. By leveraging the unique features of TIS, we address the limitations of conventional global navigation satellite systems (GNSS) in providing reliable positioning services within indoor environments. To facilitate the extension of GNSS indoor signals, we establish an extended line-of-sight link using TIS which has the capability to change signal direction. A three-stage TIS-aided satellite indoor positioning algorithm (TSIPA), which utilizes the positions of TIS arrays and the angle of arrival, is proposed to locate indoor users. To evaluate the distribution of TIS arrays, we propose TIS position dilution of precision (TPDoP) to evaluate centroid deviation and utilize the root mean square error (RMSE) to represent compactness.

Darwin Mobile Agent: A Roadmap for Self-Evolution

The goal of artificial intelligence is to create agents capable of general, adaptive behaviour in open-ended environments. Guided by the "Bitter Lesson", we argue that the most effective path toward this goal is to systematically remove human priors and allow intelligence to naturally emerge through interaction with a "Big World" that is orders of magnitude more complex than the agent itself. We propose the mobile Graphical User Interface (GUI) as a practical proxy for such a world and introduce Darwin Mobile Agent, an open-source infrastructure designed as a foundation for autonomous reinforcement learning in this domain. This framework addresses the data-collection bottleneck in real-world mobile interactions by using an asynchronous agent-environment loop across parallel cloud-phone instances. We further propose a conceptual roadmap to systematically remove human priors from three fundamental pillars of a self-evolving agent: task curricula, outcome verification, and memory management. We validate that the Darwin infrastructure provides the stability and scalability required for the first stage of this roadmap: policy optimisation in the GUI domain. This work establishes the practical and theoretical foundation necessary to move toward truly autonomous, self-evolving GUI agents.

Time reversal reserved spin valve and spin transistor based on unconventional $p$-wave magnets

The anisotropic spin splitting in unconventional magnets opens new opportunities for realizing spintronic functionalities without relying on net magnetization or relativistic spin-orbit coupling. Here, we propose a spin valve and a spin transistor based on unconventional $p$-wave magnets (UPMs). The spin valve is realized in a junction where a normal metal is sandwiched between two UPMs whose exchange-field strength vectors are oriented transverse to the junction direction. The conductance of such a device is governed by the spin alignment between two UPMs: when their strength vectors are parallel, the spin-state alignment enables efficient electron transmission, leading to a high-conductance state; in contrast, the antiparallel configuration suppresses the conductance owing to the opposite spin orientations. Furthermore, the spin-valve can be extended to a spin transistor by replacing the central normal metal with another UPM with a longitudinally oriented strength vector and a perpendicular spin polarization axis. The central UPM enables uniform spin precession with the same precession frequency for all transverse modes. Both devices can be electrically controlled by modulating the strength vectors of UPMs. These findings establish UPMs as a promising platform for developing spintronic devices without net magnetization or relativistic spin-orbit coupling.

TingIS: Real-time Risk Event Discovery from Noisy Customer Incidents at Enterprise Scale

Real-time detection and mitigation of technical anomalies are critical for large-scale cloud-native services, where even minutes of downtime can result in massive financial losses and diminished user trust. While customer incidents serve as a vital signal for discovering risks missed by monitoring, extracting actionable intelligence from this data remains challenging due to extreme noise, high throughput, and semantic complexity of diverse business lines. In this paper, we present TingIS, an end-to-end system designed for enterprise-grade incident discovery. At the core of TingIS is a multi-stage event linking engine that synergizes efficient indexing techniques with Large Language Models (LLMs) to make informed decisions on event merging, enabling the stable extraction of actionable incidents from just a handful of diverse user descriptions. This engine is complemented by a cascaded routing mechanism for precise business attribution and a multi-dimensional noise reduction pipeline that integrates domain knowledge, statistical patterns, and behavioral filtering. Deployed in a production environment handling a peak throughput of over 2,000 messages per minute and 300,000 messages per day, TingIS achieves a P90 alert latency of 3.5 minutes and a 95\% discovery rate for high-priority incidents. Benchmarks constructed from real-world data demonstrate that TingIS significantly outperforms baseline methods in routing accuracy, clustering quality, and Signal-to-Noise Ratio.

Holder Policy Optimisation

Group Relative Policy Optimisation (GRPO) enhances large language models by estimating advantages across a group of sampled trajectories. However, mapping these trajectory-level advantages to policy updates requires aggregating token-level probabilities within each sequence. Relying on a fixed aggregation mechanism for this step fundamentally limits the algorithm's adaptability. Empirically, we observe a critical trade-off: certain fixed aggregations frequently suffer from training collapse, while others fail to yield satisfactory performance. To resolve this, we propose \textbf{HölderPO}, a generalised policy optimisation framework unifying token-level probability aggregation via the Hölder mean. By explicitly modulating the parameter $p$, our framework provides continuous control over the trade-off between gradient concentration and variance bounds. Theoretically, we prove that a larger $p$ concentrates the gradient to amplify sparse learning signals, whereas a smaller $p$ strictly bounds gradient variance. Because no static configuration can universally resolve this concentration-stability trade-off, we instantiate the framework with a dynamic annealing algorithm that progressively schedules $p$ across the training lifecycle. Extensive evaluations demonstrate superior stability and convergence over existing baselines. Specifically, our approach achieves a state-of-the-art average accuracy of $54.9\%$ across multiple mathematical benchmarks, yielding a substantial $7.2\%$ relative gain over standard GRPO and secures an exceptional $93.8\%$ success rate on ALFWorld.

TIDE: Efficient and Lossless MoE Diffusion LLM Inference with I/O-aware Expert Offload

Diffusion Large Language Models (dLLMs) have emerged as a competitive alternative to autoregressive (AR) models, offering better hardware utilization and bidirectional context through parallel block-level decoding. However, as dLLMs continue to scale up with mixture-of-experts (MoE) architectures, their deployment on resource-constrained devices remains an open challenge. Existing AR-based methods often incur either prohibitive I/O overhead or significant compute bottlenecks. In this work, we propose TIDE, a novel resource-efficient inference system that leverages the temporal stability of expert activations during the diffusion process within the block. Specifically, we leverage the temporal stability of expert activations during the diffusion process within the block and introduce an interval-based expert refresh strategy that updates the expert placement in an I/O-aware fashion. To ensure optimal performance, we formulate the inference scheduling as a mathematical programming problem, solving for the optimal interval that minimizes I/O traffic and CPU computation. Most importantly, TIDE is a lossless optimization that requires no model training, providing a "free lunch" acceleration for dLLM inference. In a single GPU-CPU system, we demonstrate that TIDE achieves up to 1.4$\times$ and 1.5$\times$ throughput improvements over prior baselines on LLaDA2.0-mini and LLaDA2.0-flash models, respectively.

Learning Stateful Predictive Knowledge From Experience

As large language model (LLM) agents increasingly learn from experience, they primarily rely on trajectory-level reflection to extract insights. Viewed through the lens of predictive knowledge, we argue that this approach operates on episodic hindsight rather than predictive foresight, yielding brittle, path-dependent heuristics. To address this, we propose Stateful Knowledge Learning (SKL). SKL shifts the agent's focus from trajectory-level summarization to maintaining Stateful Knowledge: explicit, declarative predictive assessments anchored to state. We first demonstrate a motivating example showing how stateful knowledge provides granularity, enhances generalization, and enables knowledge bootstrapping. To further scale up the idea, we introduce two algorithms via self-distillation (SKL-SD) and reinforcement learning (SKL-RL), training agents to autonomously extract state-grounded predictive knowledge from experience and learn to leverage it for policy making. Experiments on interactive environments (WebShop, ScienceWorld) and a complex reasoning task (ChessPuzzles) demonstrate that equipping models with the inherent ability to learn stateful predictive knowledge significantly outpaces current reflection-based training paradigms.

IterSIMP-σ: Evaluating LLM-Assisted Spatial Interventions in Stress-Aware Topology Optimization

This paper studies whether multimodal large language models (LLMs) can serve as inspectable spatial proposal modules for stress-aware topology optimization. IterSIMP-σ keeps the SIMP optimizer as a compliance-minimizing finite-element solver and places a deterministic stress pass, gate evaluator, and hybrid LLM/rule interpreter around it. After each solve, density and von Mises stress fields are rendered; the interpreter proposes ranked spatial interventions; and deterministic safeguards accept, reject, or stop each action. The main action is a soft density seed, where selected elements are initialized at elevated density before the next solve but remain free under the optimality-criteria update. We evaluate the loop on a 16-problem 2D controller-policy benchmark, a six-problem exploratory 3D extension, passive-solid and input ablations, stress-threshold sensitivity, and a fixed-volume attribution study comparing LLM proposals with deterministic max-stress hotspot seeding, random stress-region seeding, and rule-based control. The 2D controller-policy benchmark shows a small retained-compliance difference (1.9% lower geometric mean for the soft-seed LLM), but this diagnostic is not statistically significant (W = 33, two-sided p = 0.382) and is not a fixed-volume feasible-final comparison. In the fixed-volume study, the LLM condition completed 44/48 attempted evaluations; 25/44 completed evaluations produced all-gate-passing retained states. Feasible-final scoring against rule-based control is split 4/4/1, and deterministic exact-hotspot seeding remains competitive. Accepted LLM spatial actions with per-step records have mean normalized seed-to-hotspot distance 0.221. The results support IterSIMP-σ as an inspectable LLM-assisted design-automation framework for spatial interventions, not yet as evidence that LLM visual reasoning improves stress-constrained optimization.

SkillMAS: Skill Co-Evolution with LLM-based Multi-Agent System

Large language model (LLM) agent systems are increasingly expected to improve after deployment, but existing work often decouples two adaptation targets: skill evolution and multi-agent system (MAS) restructuring. This separation can create organization bottlenecks, context pressure, and mis-specialization. We present SkillMAS, a non-parametric framework for adaptive specialization in multi-agent systems that couples skill evolution with MAS restructuring. SkillMAS uses Utility Learning to assign credit from verified execution traces, bounded skill evolution to refine reusable procedures without unfiltered library growth, and evidence-gated MAS restructuring when retained failures and Executor Utility indicate a structural mismatch. Across embodied manipulation, command-line execution, and retail workflows, SkillMAS is competitive under the reported harnesses while clarifying how post-deployment specialization is attributed, updated, and applied.

TopoClaw: A Human-Centric and Topology-Aware Agent Operating System

Large language models (LLMs) have evolved AI assistants into autonomous reasoning engines that maintain context, invoke tools, and pursue long-horizon tasks. This has spurred Agent Operating Systems (Agent OS) as kernel-like layers for lifecycle management, memory, scheduling, and access control. Yet most designs remain agent-centric, treating the OS as a single-host runtime for internal reasoning and tool use, leaving open how autonomous actions integrate with distributed, collaborative, permission-sensitive workflows. TopoClaw is an open-source, human-centric, topology-aware Agent OS modeling the user's ecosystem as two coupled structures: a physical device topology of heterogeneous surfaces and a social relationship topology of shared spaces, teams, and delegated roles. It unifies device operation, messaging, and skills around accountable cross-boundary execution, with three core contributions: (1) cross-device action placement, decoupling intent from actuation and routing distributed actions across the device cluster based on hardware affordances and user context; (2) cross-user identity attribution, treating agents as socially situated "Digital Twins" that coordinate in multi-user spaces while preserving provenance, role-aware permissions, and human accountability; (3) cross-context authority governance, pairing broad capability with distributed, context-aware policy enforcement across physical and social trust boundaries to bound proactive autonomy at the OS layer. This report presents TopoClaw as an engineering-oriented reference architecture, covering its design principles, runtime, cross-device execution, collaboration mechanisms, security model, and deployment outlook.

SMMBench: A Benchmark for Source-Distributed Multimodal Agent Memory

Existing benchmarks for multimodal memory reasoning largely evaluate systems within pre-assembled contexts, but under-evaluate whether agents can use evidence distributed across independently originated sources. We argue that source-distributed memory composition is an important and under-examined bottleneck in multimodal agent memory, especially when relevant evidence is fragmented across heterogeneous artifacts such as conversations, profiles, screenshots, tables, images, and documents. To address this gap, we introduce Source-distributed Multimodal Memory Benchmark(SMMBench), which measures whether agents can retrieve, align, and compose multimodal evidence scattered across multiple sources rather than reason within a single curated context. SMMBench evaluates four core capabilities: (1) cross-source multimodal reasoning; (2) conflict resolution; (3) preference reasoning; (4) memory-grounded action prediction. The benchmark contains 1877 samples grounded in 264 sources. Experiments on representative memory-style and retrieval-based baselines show that current systems still struggle on these capabilities, positioning source-distributed multimodal memory as an important and still under-evaluated challenge for multimodal agents. Our data are available at https://huggingface.co/datasets/HuacanChai/SMMBench.

Large Language Models as Optimization Controllers: Adaptive Continuation for SIMP Topology Optimization

We present a framework in which a large language model (LLM) acts as an online adaptive controller for SIMP topology optimization, replacing conventional fixed-schedule continuation with real-time, state-conditioned parameter decisions. At every $k$-th iteration, the LLM receives a structured observation$-$current compliance, grayness index, stagnation counter, checkerboard measure, volume fraction, and budget consumption$-$and outputs numerical values for the penalization exponent $p$, projection sharpness $β$, filter radius $r_{\min}$, and move limit $δ$ via a Direct Numeric Control interface. A hard grayness gate prevents premature binarization, and a meta-optimization loop uses a second LLM pass to tune the agent's call frequency and gate threshold across runs. We benchmark the agent against four baselines$-$fixed (no-continuation), standard three-field continuation, an expert heuristic, and a schedule-only ablation$-$on three 2-D problems (cantilever, MBB beam, L-bracket) at $120\!\times\!60$ resolution and two 3-D problems (cantilever, MBB beam) at $40\!\times\!20\!\times\!10$ resolution, all run for 300 iterations. A standardized 40-iteration sharpening tail is applied from the best valid snapshot so that compliance differences reflect only the exploration phase. The LLM agent achieves the lowest final compliance on every benchmark: $-5.7\%$ to $-18.1\%$ relative to the fixed baseline, with all solutions fully binary. The schedule-only ablation underperforms the fixed baseline on two of three problems, confirming that the LLM's real-time intervention$-$not the schedule geometry$-$drives the gain. Code and reproduction scripts will be released upon publication.

Position: Agentic AI System Is a Foreseeable Pathway to AGI

Is monolithic scaling the only path to AGI? This paper challenges the dogma that purely scaling a single model is sufficient to achieve Artificial General Intelligence. Instead, we identify Agentic AI as a necessary paradigm for mastering the complex, heterogeneous distribution of real-world tasks. Through rigorous theoretical derivations, we contrast the optimization constraints of monolithic learners against the efficiency of Agentic systems, progressing from simple routing mechanisms to general Directed Acyclic Graph (DAG) topologies. We demonstrate that Agentic AI achieves exponentially superior generalization and sample efficiency. Finally, we discuss the connection to Mixture-of-Experts, reinterpret the instability of current multi-agent frameworks, and call for greater research focus on Agentic AI.

Unsupervised Online Channel Estimation for High-Mobility OFDM via Implicit Neural Representation

Accurate channel estimation remains challenging in high-mobility wireless systems because Doppler shifts induce severe inter-carrier interference (ICI) in Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM). We propose an unsupervised online channel estimation framework based on Implicit Neural Representation (INR). Unlike discrete-grid estimators, the proposed method decouples channel representation from the OFDM sampling resolution by modeling the time-varying frequency-selective channel as a continuous function of time-frequency coordinates. A Sinusoidal Representation Network (SIREN) with Gaussian Fourier feature mapping captures fine-grained channel variations and high-frequency details without offline pre-training or labeled data. For each received slot, the network parameters are updated by per-slot online fitting that minimizes a physics-aware ICI loss, while a confidence-aware decision-directed loop balances reliable pilots and dynamically harvested pseudo-pilots. Simulations in realistic Vehicle-to-Everything (V2X) environments show that the proposed method achieves near-optimal link-level reliability, significantly outperforming Least Squares (LS) and robust Linear Minimum Mean Square Error (LMMSE) estimators. Compared with supervised deep learning baselines, it also exhibits strong out-of-distribution (OOD) robustness under environmental distribution shifts, establishing an adaptable data-efficient physical-layer paradigm.

The Perceptual Bandwidth Bottleneck in Vision-Language Models: Active Visual Reasoning via Sequential Experimental Design

Visual perception in modern Vision-Language Models (VLMs) is constrained by a perceptual bandwidth bottleneck: a broad field of view preserves global context but sacrifices the fine-grained details required for complex reasoning. We argue that high-resolution visual reasoning is therefore not only semantic reasoning but also task-relevant evidence acquisition under limited perceptual bandwidth. Inspired by active vision and information foraging, we formalise this process as sequential Bayesian optimal experimental design (S-BOED), where an agent decides which visual evidence to acquire before answering. Since exact Bayesian inference is intractable in continuous gigapixel spaces, we derive a tractable coverage--resolution objective as a proxy for task-relevant information gain. We instantiate this framework with FOVEA, a training-free procedure that refines VLM crop proposals through evidence-oriented probing. Experiments on high-resolution benchmarks show consistent gains over direct and ReAct-style baselines, with particularly strong improvements in search-dominated remote-sensing settings.

LithoBench: Benchmarking Large Multimodal Models for Remote-Sensing Lithology Interpretation

Remote sensing lithology interpretation is fundamental to geological surveys, mineral exploration, and regional geological mapping. Unlike general land-cover recognition, lithology interpretation is a knowledge-intensive task that requires experts to infer rock types from various features, e.g., subtle visual, spectral, textural, geomorphological, and contextual cues, making reliable automated interpretation highly challenging. Geological knowledge-guided large multimodal models offer new opportunities, yet their evaluation remains constrained by the lack of benchmarks that capture lithological annotations, multi-level geological semantics, and expert-informed assessment. Here, we propose LithoBench, a multi-level benchmark for evaluating geological semantic understanding in remote sensing lithology interpretation. LithoBench contains 10,000 expert-annotated interpretation instances across 12 representative lithological categories, including 4,000 multiple-choice and 6,000 open-ended tasks organized into five cognitive levels: Identification and Description, Comparative Analysis, Mechanism Explanation, Practical Application, and Comprehensive Reasoning. We further develop an expert-in-the-loop, knowledge-grounded semi-automated construction pipeline, coupling multi sub-processes, e.g., structured geological image descriptions, to enhance geological validity and evaluation reliability. Experiments with multiple large vision-language models eveal substantial limitations in geological semantic understanding, particularly on higher-order explanation, application, and reasoning tasks.

UFT: Unifying Fine-Tuning of SFT and RLHF/DPO/UNA through a Generalized Implicit Reward Function

By pretraining on trillions of tokens, an LLM gains the capability of text generation. However, to enhance its utility and reduce potential harm, SFT and alignment are applied sequentially to the pretrained model. Because SFT and alignment have different objectives and underlying processes, performance on certain tasks can decline. To address this, we seamlessly introduce Unified Fine-Tuning (UFT), which integrates SFT and alignment into a single training stage using the same objective and loss functions through an implicit reward function. Our experimental results demonstrate that UFT outperforms SFT on instruction-tuning data alone. Moreover, when combining instruction-tuning data with alignment data, UFT effectively prevents the degradation on some tasks across these two stages and shows a clear advantage over sequentially applying SFT and alignment. This is evident in the significant improvements observed in the \textbf{ifeval} task for instruction-following and the \textbf{truthful} task for factuality. The proposed general fine-tuning framework UFT establishes an effective and efficient paradigm for LLM post-training.

CASCADE: Case-Based Continual Adaptation for Large Language Models During Deployment

Large language models (LLMs) have become a central foundation of modern artificial intelligence, yet their lifecycle remains constrained by a rigid separation between training and deployment, after which learning effectively ceases. This limitation contrasts with natural intelligence, which continually adapts through interaction with its environment. In this paper, we formalise deployment-time learning (DTL) as the third stage in the LLM lifecycle that enables LLM agents to improve from experience during deployment without modifying model parameters. We present CASCADE (CASe-based Continual Adaptation during DEployment), a general and principled framework that equips LLM agents with an explicit, evolving episodic memory. CASCADE formulates experience reuse as a contextual bandit problem, enabling principled exploration-exploitation trade-offs and establishing no-regret guarantees over long-term interactions. This design allows agents to accumulate, select, and refine task-relevant cases, transforming past experience into actionable knowledge. Across 16 diverse tasks spanning medical diagnosis, legal analysis, code generation, web search, tool use, and embodied interaction, CASCADE improves macro-averaged success rate by 20.9% over zero-shot prompting while consistently outperforming gradient-based and memory-based baselines. By reframing deployment as an adaptive learning process, this work establishes a foundation for continually improving AI systems.
