Ripple: Real-Time Streaming Audio-Video Generation With Cross-Modal Recurrent Memory

Audio-video generative models achieve impressive quality but suffer from high latency, making them unsuitable for real-time applications. Although several streaming audio-video generation methods have been proposed, they remain costly and fail to support long-form generation. To address this, we propose \textbf{Ripple}, a real-time joint audio-video generation system with a cross-modal recurrent memory mechanism. To enable efficient streaming inference while preserving long-term context, Ripple combines a fixed-length sliding-window attention with modality-specific memory states that continuously summarize audio and video context. Cross-modal memory interaction is further introduced to enhance audio-visual synchronization. To learn this memory-augmented model effectively, we devise a three-stage training recipe: (1) adapting a bidirectional audio-video teacher to block-wise causal attention with simulated memory, (2) optimizing the memory construction and interaction pipeline through end-to-end distillation, and (3) applying online reinforcement post-training tailored for streaming audio-video generation. As a result, Ripple achieves ~28 FPS at 480P resolution, over faster than the teacher, while capable of coherent long-form generation. Extensive experiments on both short-video and long-video benchmarks demonstrate our superior performance over existing offline and online joint audio-video generation methods.

OmniMate: Open-Ended Real-Time Streaming Audio-Visual Generation for Interactive Avatars

Recent advances in diffusion-based generative models have enabled real-time audio-driven avatar generation and unified audio-visual synthesis, providing a promising foundation for interactive avatar systems. However, extending unified audio-visual synthesis to real-time interactive streaming remains challenging, as the generation horizon is unknown in advance and the generated identity may drift over long-term generation. To address these challenges, we propose OmniMate, a unified framework for open-ended real-time interactive audio-visual avatar generation. OmniMate jointly synthesizes visual content, speech, and sound effects in real time, enabling natural and immersive multi-turn interactions. To achieve adaptive response progression, we introduce a Generation Progress Controller (GPC) that explicitly models the generation progress of each streaming chunk, allowing the model to complete responses according to the desired progress and achieve seamless transitions between execution and listening states. To preserve long-term cross-modal identity consistency, we propose a Multi-Reference Conditioning Module (MRCM), which leverages multiple reference images and a reference speech segment to provide persistent visual and speaker identity cues throughout long-duration streaming interactions. Extensive experiments on an interaction-oriented adaptation of VerseBench demonstrate that OmniMate achieves high-quality, low-latency streaming generation while maintaining strong long-term audio-visual consistency. The results further show that OmniMate supports realistic, coherent, and responsive interactive avatar experiences over extended multi-turn conversations.

Dual Attention Residuals

Recent work extends Transformer residual pathways along two complementary axes: historical retrieval selects information from earlier depths, whereas multi-stream methods maintain multiple residual trajectories. These capabilities have largely been studied in isolation, and assigning an independent retriever to each stream still prevents one trajectory from influencing depth selection in another. We propose Dual Attention Residuals (DAR), which brings multi-stream interaction into historical retrieval through reciprocal cross-stream addressing. For each target stream, DAR computes depth weights from normalized states in the opposite stream and applies them to values from the target stream's own history. The retrieved states are combined for an unchanged Transformer branch and updated through constrained gated writes; a block-form variant operates on block-level histories to control overhead. Across dense models from 0.1B to 1B parameters and a 7B sparse-MoE model, DAR consistently improves validation loss over standard residual Transformers and Attention Residuals. Routing ablations show that the gain cannot be explained by an additional stream or value projection alone. Representation and intervention analyses further show that reciprocal cross-stream selection preserves depth-wise diversity and avoids the redundancy or functional imbalance observed in alternative two-stream designs.

A neuromorphic vision system for open-world visual intelligence

Time-efficient and robust visual intelligence remains a critical challenge in unstructured open-world environments, yet current approaches often rely on computationally intensive neural architectures or task-specific sensors with limited versatility. Inspired by biological vision and information bottleneck theory, we report a neuromorphic vision system that performs task-oriented visual intelligence through an information distillation strategy (named as task traction mechanism) implemented on hardware. The system integrates a polarization-sensitive imager with a resistive random-access memory (RRAM) array to progressively distill task-relevant information via light field selection, region of interest extraction, and target anticipation. The neuromorphic vision system conducts visual tasks within an execution time of 193 {\mu}s. Evaluation across eight challenging open-world scenarios shows accuracy improvements of 25.54%, 37.73%, and 36.10% for object tracking, object segmentation, and trajectory prediction, respectively, together with an average 30.6-fold reduction in latency relative to state-of-the-art solutions.

SimAMC: A Fast and Accurate Simulator for Resistive Memory-Based Analog Matrix Computing with Non-Idealities

Analog matrix computing (AMC) circuits leverage resistive memory arrays to perform matrix operations in a massively parallel manner, providing an efficient approach for accelerating data-intensive tasks. However, hardware non-idealities severely impact computational accuracy, making early-stage simulation vital for reliable performance estimation and design optimization. While open-loop circuits for matrix-vector multiplication are well-studied, closed-loop AMC circuits, which solve matrix equations, are computationally more complex and substantially more sensitive to non-idealities, complicating their simulation. In this work, we present SimAMC, a simulator for resistive memory-based closed-loop AMC circuits. SimAMC is capable of modeling matrix inversion and eigenvector solving in the presence of key non-idealities, including device programming error, data conversion error, thermal noise, operational amplifier input offset, and interconnect resistance. For real-valued matrix computing circuits, an alternating iterative algorithm is designed. SimAMC's effectiveness is validated through comparison with SPICE, showing excellent agreement while also demonstrating a speedup of several orders of magnitude.

CRAFT: A Unified Counterfactual Reasoning Framework for Tabular Question Answering and Fact Verification

Table reasoning remains challenging for large language models (LLMs), particularly in tasks that require multi-step inference over long and structured tables. Existing approaches predominantly rely on single-direction reasoning, which limits their ability to explore alternative hypotheses across tasks. In this work, we propose CRAFT, a unified Counterfactual Reasoning Framework that reformulates Tabular question answering and fact verification into a general bidirectional verification process. Our method explicitly constructs both declarative statements and their counterfactual variants. Evidence is then extracted from reasoning along both the original and counterfactual paths, and integrated via a weighted mechanism to arrive at the final answer. Experimental results show that our approach consistently surpasses representative baselines on table reasoning datasets such as WikiTQ and TabFact, achieving especially large improvements on complex question answering. Our framework also significantly mitigates performance gaps between different backbone LLMs. This indicates that counterfactual reasoning effectively overcomes the limitations of single-direction inference, guiding LLMs toward more discerning reasoning and establishing a more principled paradigm for structured reasoning tasks. Our code will be made publicly available upon acceptance.

Prompt-Level Reward Specifications for Open-Ended Post-Training

Open-ended post-training benefits from rewards that make prompt-specific success conditions explicit, rather than relying only on post-hoc scalar scores. In instruction following, writing, and decision-support tasks, response quality depends on local requirements, holistic preferences, and explicit constraints, but existing reward methods often leave these criteria implicit or cover only narrowly verifiable cases. We propose a prompt-level reward specification framework that separates reward specification from reward computation. Given only prompts, our framework constructs reusable task-adaptive rubrics and executable hard-constraint checkers offline, making reward criteria explicit before training and reusable across rollouts. At scoring time, artifact-anchored rubric and code scores are combined with an independent global score for residual holistic quality, yielding a normalized hybrid reward over requirement satisfaction, holistic quality, and deterministic constraints. The framework requires no human preference annotations, reference answers, or a separately trained reward model. Experiments show that the resulting reward improves offline RM-style response ranking and supports online reinforcement learning across multiple open-ended benchmarks. Ablations further show that rubrics, global scoring, and executable verification provide complementary supervision.

Plant, Persist, Trigger: Sleeper Attack on Large Language Model Agents

Large Language Model (LLM) agents remain vulnerable to safety threats from the external environment, where attackers inject adversarial content into external observations such as tool-returned data, webpages, or MCP context, causing harmful agentic behaviors such as unsafe actions or incorrect outputs. Existing studies typically focus on single-interaction attacks, where the agent observes adversarial content and immediately exhibits harmful behavior within one user request. However, we show that adversarial content can also persist across interactions served by the same agent, making such threats harder to detect and mitigate. Specifically, adversarial content may persist in the agent state, remain dormant across interactions, and later be activated by a benign user query. We formalize this type of safety threat as Sleeper Attack. To evaluate it, we construct a benchmark with 1,896 instances covering six real-world harmful outcomes, three attack strategies, and three agent state targets: session context, memory, and reusable skills. Experiments on seven strong open-source and closed-source LLMs show that state-of-the-art LLM agents remain vulnerable to Sleeper Attack, even when they achieve low attack success rates under a single-interaction baseline.

Tibetan-TTS:Low-Resource Tibetan Speech Synthesis with Large Model Adaptation

Tibetan text-to-speech (TTS) has long been challenged by scarce speech resources, significant dialectal variation, and the complex mapping between written text and spoken pronunciation. To address these issues, this work presents, to the best of our knowledge, the first large-model-based Tibetan TTS system in the industry, built upon a large speech synthesis model developed by Xingchen AGI Lab. The proposed system integrates data quality enhancement, Tibetan-oriented text representation and tokenizer adaptation, and cross-lingual adaptive training for low-resource Tibetan speech synthesis. Experimental results show that the system can generate stable, natural, and intelligible Tibetan speech under low-resource conditions. In subjective evaluation, the MOS scores of the syllable-level and BPE-based systems reach 4.28 and 4.35, while their pronunciation accuracies reach 97.6% and 96.6%, respectively, outperforming an external commercial Tibetan TTS interface. These results demonstrate that combining a large-model backbone with Tibetan-oriented text representation adaptation and cross-lingual adaptive training enables highly usable low-resource Tibetan speech synthesis, and also provides a technical foundation for future unified multi-dialect Tibetan speech synthesis.

D-QRELO: Training- and Data-Free Delta Compression for Large Language Models via Quantization and Residual Low-Rank Approximation

Supervised Fine-Tuning (SFT) accelerates taskspecific large language models (LLMs) development, but the resulting proliferation of finetuned models incurs substantial memory overhead. Delta compression addresses this by retaining a single pre-trained LLM with multiple compressed delta weights. However, existing methods fail on models fine-tuned with largescale datasets. We find that larger SFT data scale amplifies delta parameter magnitude, singular values, and entropy, exacerbating compression errors. To tackle this, we propose DQRELO (Delta Compression via Quantization and Residual Low-Rank), a novel training- and data-free delta compression method. It combines coarse-grained one-bit quantization to capture the dominant structure of the delta, followed by compensated residual low-rank approximation to recover fine-grained details from the smaller residual error. Experiments on various LLMs spanning dense and MoE architectures across multiple domains under this challenging setting demonstrate that DQRELO outperforms existing methods. Moreover, we establish key design principles for delta compression through extensive empirical analysis, demonstrating how task difficulty, architecture, and layer positioning create predictable patterns that can guide optimal compression strategies in production systems.

Audio-Cogito: Towards Deep Audio Reasoning in Large Audio Language Models

Recent advances in reasoning models have driven significant progress in text and multimodal domains, yet audio reasoning remains relatively limited. Only a few Large Audio Language Models (LALMs) incorporate explicit Chain-of-Thought (CoT) reasoning, and their capabilities are often inconsistent and insufficient for complex tasks. To bridge this gap, we introduce Audio-Cogito, a fully open-source solution for deep audio reasoning. We develop Cogito-pipe for high-quality audio reasoning data curation, producing 545k reasoning samples. Based on this dataset, we adopt a self-distillation strategy for model fine-tuning. Experiments on the MMAR benchmark, the only audio benchmark evaluating the CoT process, show that our model achieves the best performance among open-source models and matches or surpasses certain closed-source models in specific metrics. Our approach also ranks among the top-tier systems in the Interspeech 2026 Audio Reasoning Challenge.

ReasonTabQA: A Comprehensive Benchmark for Table Question Answering from Real World Industrial Scenarios

Recent advancements in Large Language Models (LLMs) have significantly catalyzed table-based question answering (TableQA). However, existing TableQA benchmarks often overlook the intricacies of industrial scenarios, which are characterized by multi-table structures, nested headers, and massive scales. These environments demand robust table reasoning through deep structured inference, presenting a significant challenge that remains inadequately addressed by current methodologies. To bridge this gap, we present ReasonTabQA, a large-scale bilingual benchmark encompassing 1,932 tables across 30 industry domains such as energy and automotive. ReasonTabQA provides high-quality annotations for both final answers and explicit reasoning chains, supporting both thinking and no-thinking paradigms. Furthermore, we introduce TabCodeRL, a reinforcement learning method that leverages table-aware verifiable rewards to guide the generation of logical reasoning paths. Extensive experiments on ReasonTabQA and 4 TableQA datasets demonstrate that while TabCodeRL yields substantial performance gains on open-source LLMs, the persistent performance gap on ReasonTabQA underscores the inherent complexity of real-world industrial TableQA.

A Unified Spoken Language Model with Injected Emotional-Attribution Thinking for Human-like Interaction

This paper presents a unified spoken language model for emotional intelligence, enhanced by a novel data construction strategy termed Injected Emotional-Attribution Thinking (IEAT). IEAT incorporates user emotional states and their underlying causes into the model's internal reasoning process, enabling emotion-aware reasoning to be internalized rather than treated as explicit supervision. The model is trained with a two-stage progressive strategy. The first stage performs speech-text alignment and emotional attribute modeling via self-distillation, while the second stage conducts end-to-end cross-modal joint optimization to ensure consistency between textual and spoken emotional expressions. Experiments on the Human-like Spoken Dialogue Systems Challenge (HumDial) Emotional Intelligence benchmark demonstrate that the proposed approach achieves top-ranked performance across emotional trajectory modeling, emotional reasoning, and empathetic response generation under both LLM-based and human evaluations.

Outlier detection in mixed-attribute data: a semi-supervised approach with fuzzy approximations and relative entropy

Outlier detection is a critical task in data mining, aimed at identifying objects that significantly deviate from the norm. Semi-supervised methods improve detection performance by leveraging partially labeled data but typically overlook the uncertainty and heterogeneity of real-world mixed-attribute data. This paper introduces a semi-supervised outlier detection method, namely fuzzy rough sets-based outlier detection (FROD), to effectively handle these challenges. Specifically, we first utilize a small subset of labeled data to construct fuzzy decision systems, through which we introduce the attribute classification accuracy based on fuzzy approximations to evaluate the contribution of attribute sets in outlier detection. Unlabeled data is then used to compute fuzzy relative entropy, which provides a characterization of outliers from the perspective of uncertainty. Finally, we develop the detection algorithm by combining attribute classification accuracy with fuzzy relative entropy. Experimental results on 16 public datasets show that FROD is comparable with or better than leading detection algorithms. All datasets and source codes are accessible at https://github.com/ChenBaiyang/FROD. This manuscript is the accepted author version of a paper published by Elsevier.

Multi-Intent Spoken Language Understanding: Methods, Trends, and Challenges

Multi-intent spoken language understanding (SLU) involves two tasks: multiple intent detection and slot filling, which jointly handle utterances containing more than one intent. Owing to this characteristic, which closely reflects real-world applications, the task has attracted increasing research attention, and substantial progress has been achieved. However, there remains a lack of a comprehensive and systematic review of existing studies on multi-intent SLU. To this end, this paper presents a survey of recent advances in multi-intent SLU. We provide an in-depth overview of previous research from two perspectives: decoding paradigms and modeling approaches. On this basis, we further compare the performance of representative models and analyze their strengths and limitations. Finally, we discuss the current challenges and outline promising directions for future research. We hope this survey will offer valuable insights and serve as a useful reference for advancing research in multi-intent SLU.

First Demonstration of Second-order Training of Deep Neural Networks with In-memory Analog Matrix Computing

Second-order optimization methods, which leverage curvature information, offer faster and more stable convergence than first-order methods such as stochastic gradient descent (SGD) and Adam. However, their practical adoption is hindered by the prohibitively high cost of inverting the second-order information matrix, particularly in large-scale neural network training. Here, we present the first demonstration of a second-order optimizer powered by in-memory analog matrix computing (AMC) using resistive random-access memory (RRAM), which performs matrix inversion (INV) in a single step. We validate the optimizer by training a two-layer convolutional neural network (CNN) for handwritten letter classification, achieving 26% and 61% fewer training epochs than SGD with momentum and Adam, respectively. On a larger task using the same second-order method, our system delivers a 5.88x improvement in throughput and a 6.9x gain in energy efficiency compared to state-of-the-art digital processors. These results demonstrate the feasibility and effectiveness of AMC circuits for second-order neural network training, opening a new path toward energy-efficient AI acceleration.

MR-UIE: Multi-Perspective Reasoning with Reinforcement Learning for Universal Information Extraction

Large language models (LLMs) demonstrate robust capabilities across diverse research domains. However, their performance in universal information extraction (UIE) remains insufficient, especially when tackling structured output scenarios that involve complex schema descriptions and require multi-step reasoning. While existing approaches enhance the performance of LLMs through in-context learning and instruction tuning, significant limitations nonetheless persist. To enhance the model's generalization ability, we propose integrating reinforcement learning (RL) with multi-perspective reasoning for information extraction (IE) tasks. Our work transitions LLMs from passive extractors to active reasoners, enabling them to understand not only what to extract but also how to reason. Experiments conducted on multiple IE benchmarks demonstrate that MR-UIE consistently elevates extraction accuracy across domains and surpasses state-of-the-art methods on several datasets. Furthermore, incorporating multi-perspective reasoning into RL notably enhances generalization in complex IE tasks, underscoring the critical role of reasoning in challenging scenarios.
