    • There is no single mechanism that satisfies all three dimensions of verification, scalability, fidelity, and robustness, so task-specific design is essential.
    • Verification is not auxiliary but core training infrastructure, and it must co-evolve continuously with policy capability growth.

    • For local-plus-global editing combinations, it improves by 16.1 percent over the best competing baseline and by 7.9 percent over the local-edit source.
    • When absorbing the realism field, it improves by 9.9 percent over off-policy distillation and reaches 85.3 percent of the student-teacher reward gap.
    • It also shows that classifier-free guidance can be absorbed under the same velocity-MSE objective.

    Are We Ready For An Agent-Native Memory System?

    • We propose an analytical framework that systematically decomposes agent memory into four modules: representation and storage, extraction, retrieval and routing, and maintenance.
    • We evaluate 12 memory systems plus two baselines on a unified testbed spanning five workloads and 11 datasets.
    • No single architecture is universally best. Hybrid systems are strong for conversational QA and graph-based systems are strong for factual recall, but they are weak at temporal reasoning.
    • Memory extraction should preserve context at write time. Broader retention, rather than overly selective extraction, is better for downstream reasoning.
    • Conservative merging outperforms delayed flushing or excessive summarization in long-term stability.
    • Highly structured systems pay tens to hundreds of times more in index-build time and query latency, but the accuracy gains do not scale proportionally.

    AsyncOPD: How Stale Can On-Policy Distillation Be?

    • AsyncOPD systematically studies the stale-data problem in asynchronous On-Policy Distillation, or OPD.
    • It shows that the KL direction changes the stale-data problem, where teacher-weighted forward KL is robust and student-weighted reverse KL is fragile, and it shows that recomputing advantages at training time is the most effective fix for reverse-KL OPD.

    DDStereo: Efficient Dual Decoder Transformers for Stereo 3D Road Anomaly Detection

    • This is the first stereo 3D detector to achieve real-time inference at 23.5 ms, at the level of monocular methods.
    • The dual decoder separates foreground binary detection using disparity features from 3D attribute regression using left-view features.
    • Shared object queries align the two decoders and produce anomaly scores without NMS or anchor matching.
    • On the KITTI-AR-OoD open-set benchmark, it outperforms S3AD with 78.09% OoD AP3D on the R40 metric.
    • It achieves SOTA compared with all existing stereo methods on the pedestrian and cyclist classes.
    • Using only an additional 10% of synthetic data, it still reaches 54.65% OoD AP3D, far exceeding S3AD's 24.45% and showing strong generalization.

    NatureBench: Can Coding Agents Match the Published SOTA of Nature-Family Papers?

    • It covers 90 carefully selected tasks from 5,500 Nature-family papers across six scientific domains: cell omics, proteins, biological modeling, physical modeling, molecular design, and relational reasoning.
    • NatureGym is an automatic pipeline that builds a containerized task environment directly from a paper, which ensures reproducibility.
    • Even the strongest agent, Claude Opus 4.7, exceeds the published SOTA only 17.8 percent of the time at g greater than 0.1 and matches it 47.8 percent of the time, which shows that the benchmark relies more on translation than discovery.
    • In 45.5 percent of successful paths, the key step was methodological translation rather than scientific invention, meaning conversion into familiar supervised-learning form.
    • The main failure causes are wrong method selection at 45.1 percent and insufficient compute budget at 24.4 percent, not lack of task understanding.
    • An information firewall hides the original authors' methodology, which forces independent discovery instead of reproduction.

    Self-Compacting Language Model Agents

    • Fixed token-threshold compression can trigger in the middle of reasoning or retrieval and accidentally delete verified facts.
    • The method combines a compression tool that the model can call directly with a lightweight rubric that says to compress when a subtask is solved and suppress compression during reasoning.
    • When the tool is provided without the rubric, usage varies widely across models and is often invoked at the wrong time, which shows that the rubric is essential.
    • On math benchmarks such as IMO-Answerbench and HMMT, it improves by up to 18.1 points over the no-compression baseline.
    • On agentic search tasks such as BrowseComp, it improves by 5 to 9 points while reducing token cost by 30 to 70 percent per question.
    • Adaptive compression is possible at inference time alone, without any fine-tuning or external supervision.

    OpenThoughts-Agent: Data Recipes for Agentic Models

    • The authors run more than 100 controlled ablation studies on a six-stage SFT data pipeline to quantify the effect of each stage.
    • Instruction selection is the most important factor in the pipeline, which shows that the strongest model is not necessarily the best teacher.
    • Fine-tuning Qwen3-32B on 100K examples yields 54.0 percent on SWE-Bench Verified and 26.2 percent on Terminal-Bench 2.0.
    • The average score is 44.8 percent, which is 3.9 points better than the previous best open-data agent model, Nemotron-Terminal-32B at 40.9 percent.
    • It shows scaling behavior that beats competing open datasets across all training-set sizes.
    • It confirms that an 8B model trained with SFT and RL in two stages outperforms both pure SFT and pure RL.

    • On the Consistent4D synthetic benchmark, we achieve SOTA with LPIPS 0.116 and FVD 592.44.
    • On DAVIS in-the-wild videos, we demonstrate superior motion accuracy over prior methods, with CLIP 0.715 and EPE 0.161.

    InSight: Self-Guided Skill Acquisition via Steerable VLAs

    • It automatically splits human demonstrations into VLM planning segments and end-effector trajectories, making the VLA controllable at the primitive-action level.
    • The VLM identifies missing primitive actions in a new task and builds a flywheel that tries them through low-level control, collects success data, and retrains.
    • It achieves 92% and 96% end-to-end success rates on twisting and following without human demonstrations, compared with 32% and 16% for CaP-X.
    • It reaches 80% success on long-horizon tasks chained from 14 primitive actions, such as twisting followed by following.
    • Adding new primitive actions does not reduce existing pick-and-place skill, confirming that forgetting is not a problem.
