We introduce Video-DeepResearch (Video-DR), extending multimodal agents from static images to continuous video streams, a setting that demands dense spatiotemporal grounding coupled with open-web exploration.
To address these challenges, we propose Video-DR, featuring a decoupled perception-exploration pipeline with stage-wise tool unlocking that compels exhaustive cross-frame visual grounding prior to web retrieval.
The 30B-A3B variant achieves 59.3%, competitive with Claude-4.5-Sonnet and demonstrating the effectiveness of our training paradigm even at compact scale.

Physical AI policies require inference throughout their lifecycle, including model evaluation, cloud reinforcement learning rollout, edge GPU serving, and onboard deployment.
To unify them, we build PhyAI, a Physical AI inference engine with a single runtime that keeps architecture-specific conditioning, solver, cache, and output logic in model adapters while sharing graph execution, kernels, memory management, and parallel services.
Specialized runtimes remain faster in several configurations, so our goal is one runtime with competitive latency rather than the fastest result in every case.

Video world models simulate future states conditioned on current observations and user actions.
Recent systems have demonstrated impressive video consistency and action controllability over long sequences.
Experiments across nine state-of-the-art world models reveal that current models remain unreliable on long-horizon interactive objectives, particularly in maintaining spatial consistency and persistent state evolution.

Vision-Language Models (VLMs) often lose visual grounding during multi-step reasoning: as reasoning chains grow longer, later inference steps rely increasingly on language priors rather than image evidence.
We present ReGround, a two-stage framework that teaches VLMs to self-diagnose grounding failures and selectively re-examine visual evidence, without architectural modifications or external tools.
Experiments on eight benchmarks across two VLM backbones demonstrate consistent gains, especially on visually intensive multi-step reasoning tasks, while incurring only modest inference overhead relative to tool-augmented baselines.

Instruction-based video editing is commonly built on video-pretrained generative backbones: a video diffusion transformer is adapted, at considerable cost, to condition on a source video and an editing instruction.
In this report we explore a different route and show that a strong instruction-based image editing model can edit videos by operating directly on video-VAE latents.
Our results suggest that, despite the large investment in training video latent spaces, per-frame video latents remain close enough to the image domain that mature image editing priors transfer with minimal adaptation.

Unified image restoration (UIR) aims to recover high-quality (HQ) content from low-quality (LQ) images with different degradations using a single model.
However, the variational autoencoder (VAE) in latent T2I models may discard restoration-sensitive details, while the open-ended synthesis prior can introduce content-inconsistent artifacts.
Experiments on public benchmarks and real-world test sets show that, with only about 50M parameters and single-step inference, PixRestore achieves the best overall fidelity, perceptual quality, and robustness to degradations among competing UIR models while being far more efficient.

Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models have recently emerged as a promising paradigm for end-to-end autonomous driving by enabling unified reasoning across perception, language, and planning.
In this paper, we propose DriveVLA-M0, a retrieval-augmented VLA with failure-aware latent memory.
Furthermore, we show that DriveVLA-M0 scales effectively with additional memory, enabling training-free performance gains through memory expansion.

Training large language model agents for long-horizon tool use typically relies on interactions with real or synthesized executable environments, whose construction and verification are costly, or on external simulators that are difficult to ground.
We introduce EnvACE, an agentic reinforcement learning method that replaces external environment interaction during training with world rehearsal.
Controlled studies further show that world rehearsal consistently improves policy learning across model scales.

We present ReToken, a single learnable embedding trained as an explicit retrieval target that selects a sparse set of query-relevant visual tokens from a pre-filled visual KV cache.
Trained on only a small image-QA dataset, ReToken yields consistent gains across image and video benchmarks: on Visual Haystacks it improves Qwen3VL-8B by 13.4 points and InternVL3.5 by 12.4 points (>20% relative), and on LVBench it transfers zero-shot to long video for an 8.0-point gain with Qwen3VL-8B.

Programmatic representations provide a compelling paradigm for 3D content creation, enabling fine-grained edits, interpretability, and explicit structural control.
In this paper, we jointly design an Agent-centric Domain-Specific Language (aDSL) and a role-specialized multi-agent system to close this gap.
Our method outperforms prior LLM-based baselines on text-to-shape and image-to-shape tasks while preserving explicit structure, editability, and interpretability.

Reasoning in Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) requires both fine-grained visual perception and rigorous logical deduction.
Furthermore, directly adapting training-free LLM reasoning mechanisms to the multimodal setting yields unstable performance.
Extensive experiments demonstrate that our method achieves state-of-the-art performance, significantly improving both accuracy and inference efficiency by reducing autoregressive steps and latency.

Pixel-space diffusion models aim to learn an end-to-end generator directly over raw pixels.

Across multiple pixel diffusion models on ImageNet, our \textbf{Synthetic Self-Guidance (SSG)} consistently improves generation while adapter training requires less than 1$\%$ of full-model training compute: it reduces FID by over 50$\%$ across the evaluated JiT variants without classifier-free guidance (CFG) and furth...

Yet medical vision-language models often lack precise localization, whereas medical segmenters typically rely on explicit target categories or precise spatial prompts.
Across this task spectrum, MedPixel achieves strong performance in both pixel-level prediction and response generation, together with effective zero-shot transfer to external grounding benchmarks and robustness to imperfect spatial prompts.

Visual document retrieval is a critical component of multimodal retrieval-augmented generation, aiming to identify query-relevant pages from document collections where evidence is distributed across text, layout, charts, and visual structures.
Recent efforts toward finer-grained supervision primarily rely on textual descriptions or localized visual regions as evidence proxies.
Experiments on diverse visual document retrieval benchmarks demonstrate that ConceptFormer achieves 16.7\% and 22.1\% relative improvements in average NDCG@10 over the strongest visual retrieval baseline and the strongest OCR-based text retrieval baseline, respectively.

In this paper, we propose Hyper-M2RAG, a novel framework that redefines multimodal document retrieval through High-order Hypergraph Representation Learning.
Extensive evaluations on multimodal benchmarking datasets demonstrate that Hyper-M2RAG significantly outperforms state-of-the-art methods in both retrieval precision and generation coherence.

Infrared-visible image fusion (IVIF) is pivotal for multimodal perception, yet reconciling the inherent information disparity between thermal and textural features remains a fundamental challenge.
Existing prior-guided methods often rely on static constraints that induce optimization conflicts or utilize extrinsic semantic priors from large-scale foundation models (e.g., CLIP/DINO), which frequently fail to exploit the intrinsic modality characteristics essential for high-fidelity fusion.
Notably, our framework demonstrates consistent performance advantages in fusion quality, achieving state-of-the-art results in 14 out of 20 key evaluation metrics across 5 benchmarks.

The "thinking-with-images" paradigm equips multimodal LLMs with active visual operations such as crop-and-zoom.
However, models using these operations often achieve only marginal or negative gains over direct inference at substantially higher token cost.
We term this discrepancy the illusion of visual tool-use: despite aggregate accuracy gains, visual tool-use is not causally effective across a broad range of rollouts.
