AREX: Towards a Recursively Self-Improving Agent for Deep Research

Shuqi Lu, Chaofan Li, Kun Luo, Zhang Zhang, Hui Wang, Hongwang Xiao, et al.

Deep research requires agents to find answers that jointly satisfy multiple constraints. Discovering such answers is costly, whereas verifying a candidate can often be decomposed into tractable constraint-wise checks. This discovery--verification asymmetry suggests that a researc…

Trace-Based On-Policy Distillation for Masked Diffusion Language Models

Haolin Ren, Ziyang Huang, Chenhao Yuan, Jun Zhao, Kang Liu

Diffusion large language models (dLLMs) are a promising alternative to autoregressive generation. However, reasoning-oriented post-training for dLLMs remains challenging. Supervised fine-tuning (SFT) for dLLMs requires dense but often off-policy masked states, while reinforcement…

LongCrafter: Towards Diverse Long-Context Understanding via Evidence-Graph-Guided Instruction Synthesis

Chenhao Yuan, Yinhao Xu, Shuwen Xu, Xizhi Yang, Jiaxiang Liu, Chenxi Zhou, et al.

Synthesizing long-context supervised fine-tuning (SFT) data is a scalable way to enhance the long-context understanding of large language models (LLMs), yet existing approaches share three limitations: narrow task coverage, insufficient instruction difficulty, and a lack of faith…

Neural Procedural Memory: Empowering LLM Agents with Implicit Activation Steering

Chengfeng Zhao, Yuqiao Tan, Shizhu He, Yequan Wang, Jun Zhao, Kang Liu

While Large Language Models (LLMs) excel as static solvers, transforming them into autonomous agents remains challenging. This transition requires continuous environmental interaction, yet current agents lack the necessary persistent procedural memory. Existing approaches predomi…

Empowering GUI Agents via Autonomous Experience Exploration and Hindsight Experience Utilization for Task Planning

Tianyi Men, Zhuoran Jin, Pengfei Cao, Yubo Chen, Kang Liu, Jun Zhao

Multimodal web agents can assist humans in operating repetitive GUI tasks, where effective task planning is essential for decomposing complex tasks into executable actions. While small open source MLLMs are cost efficient and privacy preserving compared with commercial large mode…
