Cross-view geo-localization between UAV and satellite imagery remains a fundamental yet highly challenging task, especially under large off-nadir views where drastic perspective distortions, occlusions, and appearance gaps occur. Existing benchmarks and methods primarily focus on…
Low-complexity channel state information acquisition is crucial for extremely large-scale multiple-input multiple-output (XL-MIMO) systems. However, practical deployments of non-square uniform planar arrays (UPAs) in hybrid-field environments face prohibitive computational comple…
Chain-of-thought (CoT) supervision exposes intermediate rationales, but flat rationale targets usually optimize a single reasoning sequence and provide limited supervision on how local conclusions should support later decisions. We introduce Dependency-Aware Intermediate QA Super…
On-policy Distillation (OPD) supervises a student model on trajectories sampled from its own policy by minimizing the divergence between the output distributions of the teacher and student at each token position, thereby providing dense token-level supervision. Although existing…
Image relighting modifies illumination while preserving non-lighting content such as identity and geometry. Existing diffusion-based methods often suffer from unstable illumination changes or inconsistent content preservation under complex lighting, as they lack an explicit mecha…
Multi-reference image generation aims to synthesize images by integrating attributes from multiple reference images under textual instructions. As the number of references increases, the task necessitates complex semantic comprehension, such as correctly associating attributes wi…
Multi-product kitting delivery imposes significant challenges for real-time scheduling in hybrid manufacturing systems that integrate processing and assembly, as dynamic order arrivals simultaneously alter supply dependencies and the set of feasible job-machine assignments. This…
Offline root-cause-analysis (RCA) benchmarks commonly rank methods by a single pooled top-1 accuracy across multiple subsystems, and engineers often read the pooled winner as a recommendation for their own subsystem. We audit that reading on three public RCA benchmark families --…
Model Context Protocol (MCP)-style ecosystems give language-model applications a practical connection layer for tools, resources, prompts, and transports. As agents move from connection to execution, security decisions often remain split across clients, servers, prompts, approval…
