CollaBot: Vision-Language Guided Simultaneous Collaborative Manipulation

arXiv

arXiv:2508.03526v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: One central goal of robotics is to enable robots to interact with the physical world. Traditional manipulation studies primarily focus on single robots and relatively small objects. However, factory and domestic environments often require large-object manipulation, such as moving tables, where multiple robots must work collaboratively. Existing studies still lack a generalizable framework that can handle diverse objects, tasks, and robot team sizes. In this work, we propose CollaBot, a generalist framework for simultaneous collaborative manipulation. First, we use SEEM for scene segmentation and target-object extraction. Then, we propose a collaborative grasping framework that decomposes the task into local grasp pose generation and global coordination. Finally, we design a two-stage planning module to generate collision-free trajectories for task execution. Experimental results across different settings with varying objects, tasks, a

L2IR: Revealing Latent Intent in Graph Fraud Detection

arXiv

arXiv:2605.26040v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Graph fraud detection has long depended on Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) to propagate and aggregate information across relational data. A critical obstacle in practice, however, is that fraudsters frequently disguise themselves by forging numerous connections with benign users, causing fraud signals to be progressively diluted during neighborhood aggregation and undermining detection reliability. While recent efforts have used Large Language Models (LLMs) to provide rich semantic cues for fraud detection, the underlying intent behind suspicious connections remains insufficiently explored. Compounding this issue, the scarcity of annotated fraud samples makes it difficult to train detectors that remain robust under heavy camouflage. To address these gaps, we propose L2IR, an LLM-driven Latent Intent Revealing framework for graph fraud detection. By uncovering latent intent from both user behaviors and suspicious connections, L2IR extracts in

LECTOR: Joint Optimization of Scientific Reasoning Graphs and Introduction Generation

arXiv

arXiv:2605.25964v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: AI Scientists have shown promising progress across multiple stages of the research pipeline, among which automatic scientific paper writing remains a formidable challenge. The Introduction writing is especially challenging, which demands not only linguistic fluency, but logical soundness and verifiable faithfulness. Most AI-assisted methods treat the task as text generation instead of reasoning and structuring, leading to severe drawbacks, e.g., hallucinating citations. To address this, we first formulate the Content-Conditional Introduction Generation (CCIG) task, which requires grounding the Introduction in the paper's core evidence. We then propose LECTOR, a novel Logic-Expression Co-Reinforcement Learning framework that can strictly follow the scientist's logic, add high-quality citations and keep structured expressions. LECTOR first constructs a logic-reasoning graph from the paper's main body to serve as a verifiable logical bluepri

Multiscale Real-Time Object Detection in the NMS-Free Era: A Comparative Performance Evaluation of YOLOv8 and YOLO26

arXiv

arXiv:2605.24831v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Non-Maximum Suppression (NMS) remains a key post-processing step in many real-time object detection pipelines, but it can introduce latency variation and deployment complexity in resource-constrained settings. Recent NMS-free designs such as YOLO26 aim to reduce this dependence through end-to-end detection, yet their performance relative to established NMS-based models such as YOLOv8 remains underexplored beyond standard benchmarks. This paper compares YOLOv8 and YOLO26 on Pascal VOC and VisDrone, representing general object detection and dense aerial small-object detection, respectively. Both model families are evaluated across five scales using accuracy, localization, model size, GFLOPs, and CPU/GPU latency. Results show that YOLO26 achieves stronger detection performance and lower model complexity on Pascal VOC across most scales, while the performance gap narrows on VisDrone, where both models struggle with dense small targets.

How Many Tools Should an LLM Agent See? A Chance-Corrected Answer

arXiv

arXiv:2605.24660v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Before an LLM agent can use a tool, a retrieval system must decide which candidate tools to show to the agent. How long should that shortlist be? Show too many tools and the model struggles to choose. Show too few and the correct tool may not appear. Most systems apply a fixed shortlist size to every query, but no standard metric exists to evaluate whether that size was appropriate. We treat the number of tools shown to an LLM agent as the object of evaluation and we apply Bits-over-Random (BoR), a chance-corrected metric that asks whether success at a given depth is better than what random selection would achieve at that same depth. We evaluate BoR across three tool-selection benchmarks, multiple scorers, and registries ranging from 20 to 3,251 tools. We then turn the same principle into a reinforcement learning (RL) reward for choosing tool shortlist depth per query. The RL agent is deliberately simple, serving as a probe of the metri

A Multimodal 3D Foundation Model for Light Sheet Fluorescence Microscopy Enables Few-Shot Segmentation, Classification, and Deblurring

arXiv

arXiv:2605.26026v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Light sheet fluorescence microscopy (LSM) enables high-resolution, three-dimensional (3D) imaging of biological specimens, providing rich volumetric data for studying cellular organization, pathology, and vascular networks. However, the size, dimensionality, and annotation burden of LSM data make supervised deep learning approaches costly and difficult to scale. Additionally, despite the abundance of unannotated LSM volumes, foundation models for this modality remain underexplored due to computational challenges and the complexity of volumetric representation learning. In this work, we introduce a 3D foundation model for LSM data, pretrained on a large curated collection of 3D images spanning multiple organisms, stains, and imaging protocols. We learn transferable volumetric representations by jointly optimizing for masked reconstruction and image-text alignment. The pretrained backbone drastically reduces the annotation burden, enablin

SAM: State-Adaptive Memory for Long-Horizon Reasoning Agent

arXiv

arXiv:2605.24468v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Long-horizon agentic reasoning requires large language models to act over long interaction histories containing thoughts, tool calls, observations, and partial conclusions. The challenge is not merely that these histories grow long, but that information needed for the current decision may be scattered across distant steps and only become relevant later. Existing approaches address this difficulty by truncating the interaction history, compressing it into shorter surrogates, or retrieving selected parts of it for reuse, but they do not explicitly model how access to past interaction should adapt to the agent's evolving state. We instead cast long-horizon reasoning as a problem of state-adaptive memory. To this end, we propose State-Adaptive Memory~(SAM), a standalone framework that consolidates ongoing interaction into compact memory cues while preserving raw trajectory pages for intent-driven recall. These cues are not treated as replacem

TGFormer: Towards Temporal Graph Transformer with Auto-Correlation Mechanism

arXiv

arXiv:2605.24971v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: The growing interest in Temporal Graph Neural Networks (TGNNs) stems from their ability to model complex dynamics and deliver superior performance. However, TGNNs encounter fundamental challenges in capturing long-term dependencies and identifying periodic patterns. To address these limitations, we propose TGFormer, a novel Transformer architecture specifically designed for temporal graphs. Our model redefines temporal graph learning by establishing a trajectory framework that aligns with time series analysis principles. This approach allows TGFormer to derive node representations through systematic analysis of historical interactions, enabling granular examination of node relationships across sequential timestamps. Building upon stochastic process theory, we develop an auto-correlation mechanism that systematically uncovers periodic dependencies in node interactions. This innovation empowers TGFormer to perform dependency discovery and

ESI-Bench: Towards Embodied Spatial Intelligence that Closes the Perception-Action Loop

arXiv

arXiv:2605.18746v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Spatial intelligence unfolds through a perception-action loop: agents act to acquire observations, and reason about how observations vary as a function of action. Rather than passively processing what is seen, they actively uncover what is unseen - occluded structure, dynamics, containment, and functionality that cannot be resolved from passive sensing alone. We move beyond prior formulations of spatial intelligence that assume oracle observations by recasting the observer as an actor. We introduce ESI-BENCH, a comprehensive benchmark for embodied spatial intelligence spanning 10 task categories and 29 subcategories built on OmniGibson, grounded in Spelke's core knowledge systems. Agents must decide what abilities to deploy - perception, locomotion, and manipulation - and how to sequence them to actively accumulate task-relevant evidence. We conduct extensive experiments on state-of-the-art MLLMs and find that active exploration

Hera: Learning Long-Horizon Coordination for Device-Cloud Collaborative LLM Agents

arXiv

arXiv:2605.24598v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language model (LLM) agents excel at solving complex long-horizon tasks through autonomous interaction with environments. However, their real-world deployment faces a fundamental device--cloud dilemma: on-device models are efficient but often brittle, while cloud models are stronger but costly in computation. State-of-the-art LLM device--cloud routers usually make coarse task-level decisions, which cannot adapt to the changing difficulty of multi-step agent interactions. To address this issue, we present Hera, a step-level device--cloud LLM agent coordinator for long-horizon tasks achieving a strong performance--cost Pareto frontier. Hera adopts a novel two-stage training paradigm: (1) imitation learning for cold-start, followed by (2) reinforcement learning that jointly optimizes task success and cloud usage efficiency. The first stage casts step-level routing as a supervised classification problem: the device agent is replayed on

A neural signed configuration distance function for path planning of picking manipulators

arXiv

arXiv:2502.16205v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Picking manipulators are task specific robots, with fewer degrees of freedom compared to general-purpose manipulators, and are heavily used in industry. The efficiency of the picking robots is highly dependent on the path planning solution, which is commonly based on sampling-based multi-query methods. The planner is robustly able to solve the problem, but its heavy use of collision-detection limits the planning capabilities for online use. We approach this problem by presenting a novel implicit obstacle representation for path planning, a neural signed configuration distance function (nSCDF), which allows us to form collision-free balls in the configuration space. We use the ball representation to re-formulate a state of the art multi-query path planner, i.e., instead of points, we use balls in the graph. Our planner returns a collision-free corridor, which allows us to use convex programming to produce optimized paths. From our nume

MVR-cache: Optimizing Semantic Caching via Multi-Vector Retrieval and Learned Prompt Segmentation

arXiv

arXiv:2605.24914v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: To reduce LLM costs and latency, semantic caching systems must accurately identify when a new prompt matches a cached one. Current methods often rely on simplistic similarity measures, which limit their effectiveness. We introduce MVR-cache, a novel semantic caching approach that significantly improves retrieval accuracy by integrating Multi-Vector Retrieval (MVR). MVR-cache is built upon a learnable segmentation model that intelligently splits prompts, enabling fine-grained similarity comparisons via MaxSim. We derive the model's training objective from a rigorous theoretical analysis. This can ensure that optimizing this objective directly maximizes cache hits under strict correctness constraints. To solve the resulting non-differentiable combinatorial optimization problem, we leverage a reinforcement learning-based training strategy with the theoretically grounded objectives as the reward. Experimental results on established benchmar

Enhanced INS/GNSS State Estimation using GNSS-Based Acceleration Measurements

arXiv

arXiv:2605.24767v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Accurate and reliable navigation is essential for autonomous ground vehicle operations. Standard INS/GNSS fusion relies on GNSS position updates, which provide limited observability of orientation and inertial sensor error states, particularly during low-dynamic motion. In this work, we propose utilizing past GNSS measurements alongside a motion model to extract meaningful vehicle acceleration information. This acceleration measurement is then integrated into the INS/GNSS filter to improve its robustness and accuracy. The proposed approach is evaluated on two real-world unmanned ground vehicle datasets collected from different mobile platforms and inertial sensor grades. Results demonstrate consistent positioning accuracy improvements relative to the standard position-aided filter, with mean position root mean square error improvements of 11.40 % and 20.74 % on the two datasets, respectively.

Cross-Domain Generalization Limits of Vision Foundation Models in Facial Deepfake Detection

arXiv

arXiv:2605.24965v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: The rapid evolution of generative models has enabled the creation of hyper-realistic facial deepfakes, exposing a critical vulnerability in modern digital forensics: the inability of detectors to generalize to unseen manipulation techniques. Traditional networks suffer from representation collapse, overfitting to localized artifact fingerprints of specific training generators. This work investigates whether modern Vision Foundation Models can serve as generalizable, out-of-the-box feature extractors capable of tracking forensic anomalies across entirely unseen generative manifolds. We conduct a systematic cross-domain evaluation comparing three foundational learning paradigms: fully supervised macro-semantic features (RoPE-ViT), pure self-supervised geometric features (DINOv3), and multi-teacher agglomerative representations (NVIDIA C-RADIOv4-H). By deploying frozen backbones subjected to downstream linear probing, we map the performanc

Do Understanding and Generation Fight? A Diagnostic Study of DPO for Unified Multimodal Models

arXiv

arXiv:2603.17044v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Unified multimodal models share a language model backbone for both understanding and generating images. Can DPO align both capabilities simultaneously? We present the first systematic study of this question, applying DPO to Janus-Pro at 1B and 7B parameters under seven training strategies and two post-hoc methods. The central finding is negative: generation quality resists DPO alignment across all tested conditions on this architecture. No method improves generation CLIPScore at 7B (|Delta| < 0.2, p > 0.5 at n=200 per seed, 3 seeds); at 1B, all methods degrade generation, and the result holds across preference data types (real-vs-generated and model-vs-model) and the data volumes tested (150-288 pairs). Gradient analysis reveals why: understanding and generation gradients are near-orthogonal (cos ~ 0) with ~11-14x magnitude imbalance driven by VQ token count asymmetry (576 generation tokens vs. ~30-100 text tokens).
