Evaluates whether video models reason according to physical laws by treating generated videos as visible reasoning traces and using a three-stage Perception–Formulation–Deduction protocol. Includes Orchard (400 mechanics videos), chain-of-frames prompting on annotated first frames, and a hybrid MLLM-plus-objective scoring suite for stage-resolved diagnostics.
Quantifies active visual observation in multimodal LLMs with ActiveVision, a 17-task benchmark that forces repeated perception rather than one-shot description. Finds frontier MLLMs fail badly (top model 10.6% vs humans 96.1%) and that model-generated vision code does not close the gap.
A looped-Transformer LLM series using Mixture-of-Experts (20B with 2B active; 6B with 0.6B active) that trades extra pretraining compute for repeated looping. Shows superior compute-efficiency versus matched-compute vanilla baselines and attains gold-medal performance on 2025 IMO and IPhO after a post-training pipeline.
AI Agent Papers2026
Guides an LLM agent to build persistent, editable DAG-based data pipelines via typed, incremental mutations instead of free-form scripts. Combines DataFlow-Skills, a Model Context Protocol exposing live operator registry and pipeline state, and a synchronized Web UI; achieves 93.3% end-to-end pass rate on a 12-task benchmark while cutting cost and latency versus script baselines.
AI Agent Papers2026
Models long-horizon interactive literary simulation where characters and world co-evolve; introduces an open‑schema framework with a Character Agent and an LLM-based World Model, plus seven trainable tasks and a dataset from 57 books for benchmarking persistent narrative state.
AI Video Papers2026
Predicts variable-cardinality sets of evidence intervals in videos to temporally ground queries using multimodal large language models. Combines caption-derived multi-span supervision, a temporal Wasserstein matching-free reward, and temporal IoU, yielding strong mIoU gains across multiple benchmarks.
AI Agent Papers2026
Prunes tool-output lines inside a coding LLM agent by turning the agent's own internal representations into per-line keep-or-prune labels. Implements a small classification head plus a length-aware embedding, saving up to 39% of tokens across benchmarks while preserving task quality.
AI Video Papers2026
Personalizes subject-driven videos to preserve human identity and accurate human–object interactions by integrating multimodal references and MLLM-derived semantics. Introduces global multimodal guidance in self-attention and modality-reference embeddings to align MLLM features with VAE tokens, supporting both inter- and intra-subject inputs (e.g., OCR, multi-view).
Studies train-time knowledge injection via hypernetworks that generate fixed LoRA adapters from large fact corpora, empirically characterizing power-law scaling across hypernetwork depth, width, and target model size and reporting improved OOD generalization.
Analyzes internal computation of text-to-image diffusion transformers and shows structural template tokens act as implicit semantic registers that maintain object identity during denoising. Introduces a causal interpretability framework (attention decomposition + targeted interventions) and a training-free pruning rule that cuts ~20% attention FLOPs for a ~1.4-point GenEval drop.

Extrapolates long video sequences from very short contexts by restoring memory-writing supervision in autoregressive video diffusion models using a two-pass Self Gradient Forcing (SGF). SGF records a no-gradient rollout at a sampled denoising exit and then recomputes KV context in a second parallel pass so future losses teach earlier latent writes, enabling minutes-long extrapolation from ~5s windows.
Selects a referred target from candidate bounding boxes, then decodes tracking waypoints for single-camera embodied visual tracking. Injects past selected-bbox geometry via sliding-window TVBI tokens and is co-trained on a Refer‑QA dataset; achieves SOTA on EVT‑Bench and demonstrates sim-to-real on legged and humanoid robots.
