daVinci-Dev: Agent-native Mid-training for Software Engineering

Recently, the frontier of Large Language Model (LLM) capabilities has shifted from single-turn code generation to agentic software engineering-a paradigm where models autonomously navigate, edit, and test complex repositories. While post-training methods have become the de facto approach for code agents, **agentic mid-training**-mid-training (MT) on large-scale data that mirrors authentic agentic workflows-remains critically underexplored due to substantial resource requirements, despite offering a more scalable path to instilling foundational agentic behaviors than relying solely on expensive reinforcement learning. A central challenge in realizing effective agentic mid-training is the distribution mismatch between static training data and the dynamic, feedback-rich environment of real development. To address this, we present a systematic study of agentic mid-training, establishing both the data synthesis principles and training methodology for effective agent development at scale. Central to our approach is **agent-native data**-supervision comprising two complementary types of trajectories: **contextually-native trajectories** that preserve the complete information flow an agent experiences, offering broad coverage and diversity; and **environmentally-native trajectories** collected from executable repositories where observations stem from actual tool invocations and test executions, providing depth and interaction authenticity. We verify the model's agentic capabilities on `SWE-Bench Verified`. We demonstrate our superiority over the previous open software engineering mid-training recipe `Kimi-Dev` under two post-training settings with an aligned base model and agentic scaffold, while using less than half mid-training tokens (73.1B). Besides relative advantage, our best performing 32B and 72B models achieve **56.1%** and **58.5%** resolution rates, respectively, which are ...

Angular Sensing by Highly Reconfigurable Pixel Antennas with Joint Radiating Aperture and Feeding Ports Reconfiguration

Angular sensing capability is realized using highly reconfigurable pixel antenna (HRPA) with joint radiating aperture and feeding ports reconfiguration. Pixel antennas represent a general class of reconfigurable antenna designs in which the radiating surface, regardless of its shape or size, is divided into sub-wavelength elements called pixels. Each pixel is connected to its neighboring elements through radio frequency switches. By controlling pixel connections, the pixel antenna topology can be flexibly adjusted so that the resulting radiation pattern can be reconfigured. However, conventional pixel antennas have only a single, fixed-position feeding port, which is not efficient for angular sensing. Therefore, in this work, we further extend the reconfigurability of pixel antennas by introducing the HRPA, which enables both geometry control of the pixel antenna and switching of its feeding ports. The model of the proposed HRPA, including both circuit and radiation parameters, is derived. A codebook is then defined, consisting of pixel connection states and feeding port positions for each sensing area. Based on this codebook, an efficient optimization approach is developed to minimize the Cram\acute{\mathrm{\mathbf{e}}}r-Rao lower bound (CRLB) and obtain the optimal HRPA geometries for angular sensing within a given area. Numerical results show that the HRPA reduces the angle estimation error by more than 50% across the full three-dimensional sphere when compared with a conventional uniform planar array of the same size. This demonstrates the effectiveness of the proposed approach and highlights the potential of HRPA for integrated sensing and communication systems.

Windowed Dictionary Design for Delay-Aware OMP Channel Estimation under Fractional Doppler

Delay-Doppler (DD) signal processing has emerged as a powerful tool for analyzing multipath and time-varying channel effects. Due to the inherent sparsity of the wireless channel in the DD domain, compressed sensing (CS) based techniques, such as orthogonal matching pursuit (OMP), are commonly used for channel estimation. However, many of these methods assume integer Doppler shifts, which can lead to performance degradation in the presence of fractional Doppler. In this paper, we propose a windowed dictionary design technique while we develop a delay-aware orthogonal matching pursuit (DA-OMP) algorithm that mitigates the impact of fractional Doppler shifts on DD domain channel estimation. First, we apply receiver windowing to reduce the correlation between the columns of our proposed dictionary matrix. Second, we introduce a delay-aware interference block to quantify the interference caused by fractional Doppler. This approach removes the need for a pre-determined stopping criterion, which is typically based on the number of propagation paths, in conventional OMP algorithm. Our simulation results confirm the effective performance of our proposed DA-OMP algorithm using the proposed windowed dictionary in terms of normalized mean square error (NMSE) of the channel estimate. In particular, our proposed DA-OMP algorithm demonstrates substantial gains compared to standard OMP algorithm in terms of channel estimation NMSE with and without windowed dictionary.

System-level Simulation of Reconfigurable Intelligent Surface assisted Wireless Communications System

Reconfigurable intelligent surface (RIS) is an emerging technique employing metasurface to reflect the signal from the source node to the destination node. By smartly reconfiguring the electromagnetic (EM) properties of the metasurface and adjusting the EM parameters of the reflected radio waves, RIS can turn the uncontrollable propagation environment into an artificially reconfigurable space, and thus, can significantly increase the communications capacity and improve the coverage of the system. In this paper, we investigate the far field channel in which the line-of-sight (LOS) propagation is dominant. We propose an antenna model that can characterize the radiation patterns of realistic RIS elements, and consider the signal power received from the two-hop path through RIS.
