MemDreamer turns hours-long video QA into agentic retrieval over a 3-tier graph memory, lifting LVBench from 78.2 to 90.7 (+12.5) while the reasoning model reads ~6K tokens instead of 240K-784K.
AI Agents · Ant Group
SearchSwarm fine-tunes Tongyi DeepResearch-30B-A3B on harness-generated delegation trajectories, lifting BrowseComp from 43.4 to 68.1 and topping every 30B-A3B model on four deep-research benchmarks.
Reinforcement Learning · Zhejiang University
N-GRPO perturbs rollout embeddings with semantic neighbors, lifting DeepSeek-R1-Distill-Qwen-1.5B average Pass@32 to 79.17 and AIME25 Pass@32 to 50.28.
AI Agents · Ant Group
SkillAdaptor edits an agent's skill library from failed trajectories without touching model weights, lifting WebShop score +2.3 and PinchBench +1.5 over the frozen backbone.
Diffusion Language Models · Renmin University of China
LLaDA trains an 8B language model by masked diffusion instead of next-token prediction, matches LLaMA3 8B in in-context learning, hits 70.7 on GSM8K, and beats GPT-4o on the reversal-curse poem task.
