We present GLM-5V-Turbo, a step toward native foundation models for multimodal agents. As foundation models are increasingly deployed in real environments, agentic capability depends not only on language reasoning, but also on the ability to perceive, interpret, and act over heterogeneous contexts such as images, videos, webpages, documents, GUIs. GLM-5V-Turbo is built around this objective: multimodal perception is integrated as a core component of reasoning, planning, tool use, and execution, rather than as an auxiliary interface to a language model. This report summarizes the main improvements behind GLM-5V-Turbo across model design, multimodal training, reinforcement learning, toolchain expansion, and integration with agent frameworks. These developments lead to strong performance in multimodal coding, visual tool use, and framework-based agentic tasks, while preserving competitive text-only coding capability. More importantly, our development process offers practical insights for building multimodal agents, highlighting the central role of multimodal perception, hierarchical optimization, and reliable end-to-end verification.

While Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) scales model capacity without proportionally increasing computation, its massive total parameter footprint creates significant storage and memory-access bottlenecks, which hinder efficient end-side deployment that simultaneously requires high performance, low computational cost, and small storage overhead. To achieve these properties, we present DECO, a sparse MoE architecture designed to match the performance of dense Transformers under identical total parameter budgets and training tokens. DECO utilizes the differentiable and flexible ReLU-based routing enhanced by learnable expert-wise scaling, which adaptively balances the contributions of routed and shared experts. Furthermore, we introduce NormSiLU, an activation function that normalizes inputs prior to SiLU operators, producing a more stable trend of routed-expert activation ratio and a higher intrinsic sparsity level. We also identify an empirical advantage in using non-gated MLP experts with ReLU-based routing, indicating the possibility of MoE architecture simplification. Experiments demonstrate that DECO, activating only 20

We introduce WildAGTEval, a benchmark designed to evaluate large language model (LLM) agents' function-calling capabilities under realistic API complexity. Unlike prior work that assumes an idealized API system and disregards real-world factors such as noisy API outputs, WildAGTEval accounts for two dimensions of real-world complexity: 1. API specification, which includes detailed documentation and usage constraints, and 2. API execution, which captures runtime challenges. Consequently, WildAGTEval offers (i) an API system encompassing 60 distinct complexity scenarios that can be composed into approximately 32K test configurations, and (ii) user-agent interactions for evaluating LLM agents on these scenarios. Using WildAGTEval, we systematically assess several advanced LLMs and observe that most scenarios are challenging, with irrelevant information complexity posing the greatest difficulty and reducing the performance of strong LLMs by 27.3

Hybrid Transformer architectures, which combine softmax attention blocks and recurrent neural networks (RNNs), have shown a desirable performance-throughput tradeoff for long-context modeling, but their adoption and studies are hindered by the prohibitive cost of large-scale pre-training from scratch. Some recent studies have shown that pre-trained softmax attention blocks can be converted into RNN blocks through parameter transfer and knowledge distillation. However, these transfer methods require substantial amounts of training data (more than 10B tokens), and the resulting hybrid models also exhibit poor long-context performance, which is the scenario where hybrid models enjoy significant inference speedups over Transformer-based models. In this paper, we present HALO (Hybrid Attention via Layer Optimization), a pipeline for distilling Transformer models into RNN-attention hybrid models. We then present HypeNet, a hybrid architecture with superior length generalization enabled by a novel position encoding scheme (named HyPE) and various architectural modifications. We convert the Qwen3 series into HypeNet using HALO, achieving performance comparable to the original Transformer models while enjoying superior long-context performance and efficiency. The conversion requires just 2.3B tokens, less than 0.01

Long-context reasoning is an essential capability for large language models, particularly when they are deployed as autonomous agents that must reason over lengthy trajectories. Reinforcement learning (RL) has recently emerged as a dominant paradigm for improving this ability, yet existing work largely focuses on reward engineering while diverse training data remains scarce. We revisit this problem from a data-centric perspective and show that a simple yet effective data recipe alone, paired with a minimal outcome-based GRPO setup, suffices to substantially improve long-context reasoning. Our recipe targets three complementary task families – retrieval, multi-evidence synthesis, and reasoning – for which we construct and curate eight datasets totaling 14K examples. Experiments on three models (Qwen3-4B/8B/30B-A3B) yield average gains of +7.2/+3.2/+6.4 points across seven long-context benchmarks, surpassing prior RL training sets. We further demonstrate that these gains transfer to agentic tasks, where continuing RL training on an agent-tuned model with our data recipe improves GAIA by +4.8 and BrowseComp by +7.0 points. We will release our datasets to facilitate future research.

Modern language models increasingly adopt hybrid architectures that combine full attention with efficient attention modules, such as sliding-window attention (SWA) and recurrent sequence mixers. However, how these efficient modules shape model capabilities remains poorly understood. To address this gap, we conduct a systematic analysis across hybrid architectures from three perspectives: scaling behavior, mechanism analysis, and architecture design. First, from a scaling perspective, we find that efficient-attention design primarily affects how fast long-context capability emerges, while different hybrids eventually converge to comparable long-context performance under sufficient training. Second, mechanistically, we show that long-range retrieval is mainly carried by full attention, whereas efficient attention shapes its optimization trajectory. This explains a counter-intuitive phenomenon we call Large-Window Laziness: larger SWA windows can delay the formation of retrieval heads in full-attention layers. Third, guided by this mechanism, we show that applying NoPE to only the full-attention layers of a small-window SWA hybrid substantially improves long-context performance with negligible impact on short-context performance.

Large Language Models (LLMs) have exhibited impressive capabilities in reasoning and language understanding. However, their reliance on memorized knowledge and tendency to generate hallucinated content limit their reliability in real-world applications. Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) mitigates these issues by integrating a retrieval module that supplements LLMs with relevant external knowledge. This paradigm bridges parametric memory and explicit retrieval, offering a principled way to ground generation in factual evidence. Despite substantial progress, most prior work has focused on optimizing isolated components, either retrieval or generation, while overlooking the agentic perspective, in which LLMs act as autonomous agents capable of actively acquiring and strategically utilizing knowledge. In this perspectives paper, we argue for reinterpreting RAG as a collaborative knowledge process among agents with distinct yet complementary roles. We categorize knowledge-intensive agents into two primary roles: knowledge acquisition (e.g., routing, query reformulation) and knowledge utilization (e.g., knowledge refinement, response generation). From this viewpoint, RAG becomes a dynamic system in which knowledge is continuously transmitted, transformed, and aligned across agent roles. To fully realize this paradigm, we advocate a joint optimization framework for knowledge-intensive agents within RAG systems. This framework explicitly models the dynamics of knowledge flow in multi-agent settings, aligning knowledge supply with knowledge demand through LLM-driven data synthesis, feedback, and evaluation. By fostering adaptive and targeted knowledge exchange, the framework mitigates conflicts between parametric and retrieved knowledge, thereby enhancing both coherence and factuality. We argue that this multi-agent joint optimization paradigm improves RAG systems in scalability, reliability, and adaptability, unlocking the potential for next-generation knowledge-intensive LLMs that reason, retrieve, and collaborate across deep retrieval processes and diverse vertical domains.

Although existing frameworks for large language model (LLM) inference on CPUs are mature, they fail to fully exploit the computation potential of many-core CPU platforms. Many-core CPUs are widely deployed in web servers and high-end networking devices, and are typically organized into multiple NUMA nodes that group cores and memory. Current frameworks largely overlook the substantial overhead of cross-NUMA memory access, limiting inference scalability and intelligence enabling on such platforms. To address this limitation, we build ArcLight, a lightweight LLM inference architecture designed from the ground up for many-core CPUs. ArcLight integrates efficient memory management and thread scheduling, and introduces finely controlled tensor parallelism to mitigate the cross-node memory access wall. Experimental results show that ArcLight significantly surpasses the performance ceiling of mainstream frameworks, achieving up to 46

We introduce ComputerRL, a framework for autonomous desktop intelligence that enables agents to operate complex digital workspaces skillfully. ComputerRL features the API-GUI paradigm, which unifies programmatic API calls and direct GUI interaction to address the inherent mismatch between machine agents and human-centric desktop environments. Scaling end-to-end RL training is crucial for improvement and generalization across diverse desktop tasks; however, it remains challenging due to environmental inefficiency and instability during extended training. To support scalable and robust training, we develop a distributed RL infrastructure capable of orchestrating thousands of parallel virtual desktop environments to accelerate large-scale online RL. Furthermore, we propose Entropulse, a training strategy that alternates reinforcement learning with supervised fine-tuning, effectively mitigating entropy collapse during extended training runs. We employ ComputerRL on open models GLM-4-9B-0414 and GLM-4.1V-9B-Thinking, and evaluate them on the OSWorld benchmark. The GLM-ComputerRL-9B achieves a new state-of-the-art accuracy of 48.9%, demonstrating significant improvements for general agents in desktop automation. Our code and demos are available at https://computer-rl.vercel.app/.

Recent progress in multimodal large language models (MLLMs) has brought AI capabilities from static offline data processing to real-time streaming interaction, yet they still remain far from human-level multimodal interaction. The key bottlenecks are no longer modality coverage or latency alone, but the interaction paradigm itself. First, perception and response are still separated into alternating phases, preventing models from incorporating new inputs for timely adjustment during generation. Second, most current models remain reactive, responding only to explicit user requests instead of acting proactively in the evolving multimodal environment. We present MiniCPM-o 4.5, our latest effort towards human-like multimodal interaction, which mitigates these gaps by real-time full-duplex omni-modal interaction. It can see, listen, and speak simultaneously in real-time, while also exhibiting proactive behaviors such as issuing reminders or comments based on its continuous understanding of the live scene. The key technique behind MiniCPM-o 4.5 is Omni-Flow, a unified streaming framework that aligns omni-modal inputs and outputs along a shared temporal axis. This formulation converts conventional turn-based interaction into a full-duplex, time-aligned process, enabling simultaneous perception and response and allowing proactive behavior to arise within the same framework. With a total of 9B parameters, MiniCPM-o 4.5 approaches Gemini 2.5 Flash in vision-language capabilities, delivering state-of-the-art open-source performance at its scale. It also surpasses Qwen3-Omni-30B-A3B in omni-modal understanding and delivers better speech generation, with significantly higher computation efficiency. Driven by its efficient architecture design and inference optimization, the model can perform real-time full-duplex omni-modal interaction on edge devices with less than 12GB RAM cost.

A recent cutting-edge topic in multimodal modeling is to unify visual comprehension and generation within a single model. However, the two tasks demand mismatched decoding regimes and visual representations, making it non-trivial to jointly optimize within a shared feature space. In this work, we present Cheers, a unified multimodal model that decouples patch-level details from semantic representations, thereby stabilizing semantics for multimodal understanding and improving fidelity for image generation via gated detail residuals. Cheers includes three key components: (i) a unified vision tokenizer that encodes and compresses image latent states into semantic tokens for efficient LLM conditioning, (ii) an LLM-based Transformer that unifies autoregressive decoding for text generation and diffusion decoding for image generation, and (iii) a cascaded flow matching head that decodes visual semantics first and then injects semantically gated detail residuals from the vision tokenizer to refine high-frequency content. Experiments on popular benchmarks demonstrate that Cheers matches or surpasses advanced UMMs in both visual understanding and generation. Cheers also achieves 4x token compression, enabling more efficient high-resolution image encoding and generation. Notably, Cheers outperforms the Tar-1.5B on the popular benchmarks GenEval and MMBench, while requiring only 20

Scaling context length is reshaping large-model development, yet full-attention Transformers suffer from prohibitive computation and inference bottlenecks at long sequences. A key challenge is to design foundation models that maintain performance and long-context efficiency with minimal training overhead. We introduce SpikingBrain2.0 (SpB2.0), a 5B model that advances both architecture and training efficiency of its predecessor. Our contributions are two-fold. (1) Architectural Innovation: We propose Dual-Space Sparse Attention (DSSA), an inter-layer hybrid of Sparse Softmax Attention (MoBA) and Sparse Linear Attention (SSE), achieving an improved performance-efficiency trade-off for long-context modeling. SpB2.0 further supports dual quantization paths: INT8-Spiking coding enables sparse event-driven computation, while FP8 coding accelerates inference on modern GPUs. (2) Enhanced Training Strategy: We develop an optimized Transformer-to-Hybrid (T2H) pipeline with dual conversion paths for LLMs and VLMs using curated open-source data. Empirically, SpB2.0-5B and SpB2.0-VL-5B recover most of the base Transformer (Qwen3-4B) capability with under 7k A100 GPU hours. SpB2.0 achieves a 10.13x TTFT speedup at 4M context and supports over 10M tokens on 8 A100 GPUs under vLLM, where full-attention models exceed memory limits. It also demonstrates strong cross-platform compatibility, enabling FP8 GPU inference (2.52x speedup at 250k) and efficient neuromorphic execution (64.31 Overall, SpikingBrain2.0 provides a practical pathway for lightweight, multimodal, spiking foundation models, highlighting the potential of combining brain-inspired mechanisms with efficient architectures for resource-constrained and edge scenarios.

Vectorization via Single Instruction, Multiple Data (SIMD) architectures is a cornerstone of high-performance computing. To fully exploit hardware potential, developers often resort to explicit vectorization using intrinsics, as compiler-based auto-vectorization frequently yields suboptimal results due to conservative static analysis. While Large Language Models (LLMs) have demonstrated remarkable proficiency in general code generation, they struggle with explicit vectorization due to the scarcity of high-quality corpora and the strict semantic constraints of low-level hardware instructions. In this paper, we propose AutoVecCoder, a novel framework designed to empower LLMs with the capability of automated explicit vectorization. AutoVecCoder integrates two core components: VecPrompt, an automated data synthesis pipeline to inject domain-specific intrinsic knowledge; and VecRL, a reinforcement learning framework that aligns code generation with execution efficiency. AutoVecCoder-8B trained by this framework achieves state-of-the-art performance on the SSE and AVX subsets of SimdBench and, in some cases, generates implementations surpassing standard -O3 optimizations, effectively overcoming the inherent bottlenecks of traditional automated vectorization.

Reasoning Language Models (RLMs) have significantly improved performance on complex tasks by extending the reasoning chain. However, these chains are prone to containing factual errors, particularly in knowledge-intensive tasks. To address this issue, we propose **CheckRLM**, a framework that improves the reliability of the reasoning process through Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) by timely checking and correcting factual errors. Specifically, CheckRLM extracts factual claims from the reasoning chain to identify and localize subtle knowledge inconsistencies during inference. Upon detection of errors, a refinement mechanism performs minimal-cost yet precise corrections by leveraging external knowledge, ensuring coherence between the reasoning chain and correct knowledge. Extensive experiments demonstrate that CheckRLM substantially outperforms existing baselines, exhibiting a strong capability to mitigate error accumulation in long-horizon reasoning with lower costs. The code and data are available at https://github.com/AI9Stars/CheckRLM.

Event analysis is an essential and fundamental direction of information extraction, involving various event-centric tasks at different granularity of documents. While large language models (LLMs) have preliminarily achieved promising performance in part of these tasks individually, their capability in event analysis still lacks comprehensive understanding due to restricted document granularity, task designs, and data source of existing benchmarks. To address these limitations, we introduce MiGUE-Bench, a systematic benchmark for assessing the performance of LLMs in multi-granularity event analysis. To support large-scale evaluation, we first develop an LLM-driven self-correcting annotation framework called MiGUE-Pipeline, enabling scalable acquisition of high-quality source data of events with automatic labels. Then, we design four core tasks in our benchmark, i.e., event detection, relation reasoning, structure induction, and future prediction, to probe model competence at different levels, from atomic event details to complex cross-document narratives. Extensive experiments on state-of-the-art LLMs and retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) methods delineate the current capability boundary and identify critical deficiencies, providing insights into the future improvement of LLMs in challenging event analysis tasks.

Efficient reproduction of research papers is pivotal to accelerating scientific progress. However, the increasing complexity of proposed methods often renders reproduction a labor-intensive endeavor, necessitating profound domain expertise.To address this, we introduce the paper lineage, which systematically mines implicit knowledge from the cited literature. This algorithm serves as the backbone of our proposed , a multi-agent framework designed to autonomously reproduce experimental code in a complete, end-to-end manner. To ensure code executability, incorporates a sampling-based unit testing strategy for rapid validation. To assess reproduction capabilities, we introduce , a benchmark featuring verified implementations, alongside comprehensive metrics for evaluating both reproduction and execution fidelity. Extensive evaluations on PaperBench and demonstrate that consistently surpasses existing baselines across all metrics. Notably, it yields substantial improvements in reproduction fidelity and final execution performance. The code is available at https://github.com/AI9Stars/AutoReproduce .

Current Large Language Models (LLMs) are primarily based on large-scale dense matrix multiplications. Inspired by the brain's information processing mechanism, we explore the fundamental question: how to effectively integrate the brain's spiking-driven characteristics into LLM inference. Spiking Neural Networks (SNNs) possess spike-driven characteristics, and some works have attempted to combine SNNs with Transformers. However, achieving spike-driven LLMs with billions of parameters, relying solely on sparse additions, remains a challenge in the SNN field. To address the issues of limited representational capacity and sparsity in existing spike encoding schemes at the LLM level, we propose SDLLM, a spike-driven large language model that eliminates dense matrix multiplications through sparse addition operations. Specifically, we use the plug-and-play gamma-SQP two-step spike encoding method to ensure that the quantization process aligns with the model's semantic space, mitigating representation degradation caused by binary spikes. Furthermore, we introduce bidirectional encoding under symmetric quantization and membrane potential clipping mechanisms, leading to spike trains with no or low firing counts dominating, significantly reducing the model's spike firing rate, while halving the number of time steps. Experimental results show that SDLLM not only significantly reduces inference costs but also achieves state-of-the-art task performance under the spike-based paradigm. For example, compared to previous spike-based LLMs, SDLLM reduces energy consumption by 7x and improves accuracy by 4.2

As available training data approaches its physical limit, gains from Scaling Laws have begun to diminish. Consequently, improving Large Language Models (LLMs) now depends less on data expansion and more on higher-quality data utilization. However, in the context of large-scale corpora, existing refinement methodologies face significant limitations in quality, efficiency, and reliability: Rule-based approaches are constrained by fixed heuristics and struggle with instance-level variations; LLM-based approaches improve quality but fail to meet the efficiency and reliability requirements of large-scale data processing. To address these challenges, we propose UltraX, a function-calling refinement framework for large-scale pre-training data that completes the editing function space by introducing insertion in addition to deletion and modification, enabling fine-grained instance-level editing. Specifically, UltraX builds a reliable program-supervision generation pipeline. In this pipeline, dataset-adaptive prompt optimization first guides an expert LLM to produce high-quality end-to-end refined texts, and Line Alignment Mapping and Dynamic Context Replacement then convert original-refined text pairs into structured program supervision. Meanwhile, UltraX improves supervision quality and stabilizes the training distribution with low-confidence example filtering and ratio-controlled sampling by operation combination. During inference and execution, it normalizes and validates model outputs through sliding-window prediction, global operation aggregation, and systematic post-processing, improving the stability and reliability of large-scale execution. Experiments show that UltraX achieves the highest average performance across all corpora and also matches or surpasses baselines with fewer training tokens, demonstrating stronger data efficiency and refinement reliability.

The efficiency of long-video inference remains a critical bottleneck, mainly due to the dense computation in the prefill stage of Large Multimodal Models (LMMs). Existing methods either compress visual embeddings or apply sparse attention on a single GPU, yielding limited acceleration or degraded performance and restricting LMMs from handling longer, more complex videos. To overcome these issues, we propose APB-V, a sequence-parallel framework with optimized attention that accelerates long-video inference across multiple GPUs. By distributing approximate attention, APB-V reduces computation and increases parallelism, enabling efficient processing of more visual embeddings without compression and thereby improving task performance. System-level optimizations, such as load balancing and fused forward passes, further unleash the potential of APB-V, delivering speedups of 12.72x, 1.70x, and 1.18x over FlashAttn, ZigZagRing, and APB, without notable performance loss.
