Do Implicit Personalization and Explicit Styles Conflict? PsPLUG: A Lightweight Plug-in for Balancing Personalization and Style in Customized LLMs

Personalized large language models are often expected to follow explicit style instructions, yet we find that such instructions can undermine the user-specific characteristics that personalization methods aim to preserve. We call this failure mode personalization collapse: explicit style control can conflict with impli...

CARD: Cluster-level Adaptation with Reward-guided Decoding for Personalized Text Generation

Adapting large language models to individual users remains challenging due to the tension between fine-grained personalization and scalable deployment. We present CARD, a hierarchical framework that achieves effective personalization through progressive refinement. CARD first clusters users according to shared stylisti...

ChemVTS-Bench: Evaluating Visual-Textual-Symbolic Reasoning of Multimodal Large Language Models in Chemistry

Chemical reasoning inherently integrates visual, textual, and symbolic modalities, yet existing benchmarks rarely capture this complexity, often relying on simple image-text pairs with limited chemical semantics. As a result, the actual ability of Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) to process and integrate chemic...

Memory-Free Continual Learning with Null Space Adaptation for Zero-Shot Vision-Language Models

Experiments show that the NuSA-CL framework not only effectively preserves zero-shot transfer capabilities but also achieves highly competitive performance on continual learning benchmarks, positioning NuSA-CL as a practical and scalable solution for continually evolving zero-shot VLMs in real-world applications.

Divide by Question, Conquer by Agent: SPLIT-RAG with Question-Driven Graph Partitioning

Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) systems empower large language models (LLMs) with external knowledge, yet struggle with efficiency-accuracy trade-offs when scaling to large knowledge graphs. Existing approaches often rely on monolithic graph retrieval, incurring unnecessary latency for simple queries and fragmente...

Controlling risks of AI in chemical science with agents

Artificial intelligence is rapidly advancing scientific discovery, but this progress carries risks of misuse, such as the creation of harmful substances, or circumvention of established regulations. In this paper, we first demonstrate the risks by highlighting real-world examples of AI misuse in chemical science, which...

GameHorizon Suite: Multi-Horizon Data and Evaluation in Gameplay

Modern video games provide a measurable testbed for AI models, combining abilities of visual understanding, instruction decomposition, goal planning, and precise action control over multiple temporal horizons. Existing datasets and benchmarks, however, either cover a narrow range of games, lack language instructions, o...

WorldCrafter: Consistent Video World Model with Implicit 3D-aware Memory

WorldCrafter is a video world model that learns a camera-queryable implicit 3D-aware memory that enables streaming scene exploration from a single input image or text prompt and shows substantial gains in long-horizon consistency and camera-control accuracy while preserving visual quality during minute-scale exploratio...

DexTacWAM: A Visuo-Tactile World-Action Model for Dexterous Manipulation

Dexterous manipulation depends on contact dynamics that are often only partially observable from vision. Recent World-Action Models (WAMs) couple predictive video world modeling with action generation, but remain largely vision-centric and therefore cannot directly model these contact dynamics. We present DexTacWAM, a...

Visuomotor Robotic Pruning in Planar Orchards Using Hybrid Reinforcement Learning

Dormant tree pruning is labor-intensive yet essential for maintaining modern high-productivity fruit orchards. In this work, we focus on pruning of modern planar tree training systems - V-Trellis apples and UFO cherries - where trunks and primary branches are trained into approximately planar walls. We introduce an end...

SE(3) Neural Potential Fields for 6-DoF Trajectory Planning Directly from Images Without Explicit 3D Reconstruction

Reaching a 6-DoF grasp pose in clutter requires a collision-free trajectory, conventionally obtained by reconstructing the scene in 3D and planning inside that reconstruction, at the cost of its accuracy and compute. Potential fields learned directly from images remove that dependency but inherit the classical weakness...

SPECTRA: Adaptive Execution of Speculative Decoding on a Runtime-Reconfigurable Tiled Architecture

LLM inference on edge devices is constrained by computational and memory resources, making efficient autoregressive decoding challenging. Speculative decoding alleviates this bottleneck by generating tokens with a smaller draft model and verifying multiple tokens in parallel with a batched target model pass. However, v...
