Modern generative models produce high-quality individual outputs but struggle to sample diversely, even when explicitly instructed to do so. We introduce MINE-SAMPLE-RENDER (MSR), a test-time approach that externalizes the diversity into an explicit, corpus-derived sampling procedure. Our pipeline (

Computer-use agents increasingly tackle long-horizon tasks, where running a frontier model at every step is expensive and a small open-weight model alone often fails. Weak-to-strong escalation offers a middle ground where a weak agent acts by default and hands control to a strong one only when neede

Personalization of Large Language Models (LLMs) is increasingly important for user-centric applications, yet prior methods mainly adapt dense LLMs, whose polysemantic neurons, each encoding multiple unrelated concepts, hinder localizing the components behind personalization, and thus understanding a

Reusing the attention KV cache across requests is a standard way to cut prefill cost in long-context LLM serving, and production systems increasingly back the per-engine cache with a remote tier shared by every engine.

Data agents use code to process heterogeneous files and derive analytical insights. Scaling their training faces costly environment curation, privacy and intellectual-property restrictions, and difficulty verifying open-ended findings without known generative truth.

Generative visual verifiers play a crucial role in advancing multimodal intelligence. To enhance the robustness of visual verifiers in complex multimodal scenarios involving compositional requirements, we move beyond conventional binary verifiers that produce only True/False discrete judgments and i

Computer use has reached a turning point: the focus is expanding from GUI-only interaction to systems that complete tasks on users' computers through visual and programmatic interfaces.

Spatial intelligence lets an agent perceive and act in the physical world, and many of its judgments must be made at interaction rates: which spatial relation holds, how far an object is, or where to place it. Vision-language models (VLMs) produce these answers by free-form text generation, paying f
