SI-Diff: A Framework for Learning Search and High-Precision Insertion with a Force-Domain Diffusion Policy

Contact-rich assembly is fundamental in robotics but poses significant challenges due to uncertainties in relative poses, such as misalignments and small clearances in peg-in-hole tasks. Existing approaches typically address search and high-precision insertion separately, because these tasks involve distinct action patterns. However, supporting both tasks within a single model, without switching models or weights, is desirable for intelligent assembly systems. In this work, we propose SI-Diff, a framework that learns both search and high-precision insertion through a force-domain diffusion policy. To this end, we introduce a new mode-conditioning mechanism that enables the policy to capture distinct action behaviors under a single framework. Moreover, we develop a new search teacher policy that can generate diverse trajectories. By training on successful and efficient demonstrations provided by the teacher policy, the model learns the mapping from tactile and end-effector velocity observations to effective action behaviors. We conduct thorough experiments to show that SI-Diff extends the tolerance to x-y misalignments from 2 mm to 5 mm compared to the state-of-the-art baseline, TacDiffusion, while also demonstrating strong zero-shot transferability to unseen shapes.

OmniRefine: Alignment-Aware Cooperative Compression for Efficient Omnimodal Large Language Models

Omnimodal large language models (Omni-LLMs) show strong capability in audio-video understanding, but their practical deployment remains limited by high inference cost of long video streams and dense audio sequences. Despite recent progress, existing compression methods for Omni-LLMs typically rely on fixed or native compression units, which can disrupt cross-modal correspondence and the complementary information required for audio-video reasoning, making it difficult to improve inference efficiency while stably preserving performance. To address this, we propose OmniRefine, a training-free two-stage framework for efficient audio-visual token compression in Omni-LLMs. First, Correspondence-Preserving Chunk Refinement refines native chunk boundaries into cross-modally aligned compression units through frame-audio similarity and dynamic programming. Second, Modality-Aware Cooperative Compression jointly compresses video and audio tokens within each refined unit to reduce redundancy while preserving critical evidence. Extensive experiments show that OmniRefine achieves a better efficiency-performance trade-off than strong baselines and maintains stable performance under lower compression ratios. On WorldSense, it still reaches 46.7% accuracy at a 44% token retention ratio, nearly matching the full-token baseline. The code and interface will be released to facilitate further research.

TTS-PRISM: A Perceptual Reasoning and Interpretable Speech Model for Fine-Grained Diagnosis

While generative text-to-speech (TTS) models approach human-level quality, monolithic metrics fail to diagnose fine-grained acoustic artifacts or explain perceptual collapse. To address this, we propose TTS-PRISM, a multi-dimensional diagnostic framework for Mandarin. First, we establish a 12-dimensional schema spanning stability to advanced expressiveness. Second, we design a targeted synthesis pipeline with adversarial perturbations and expert anchors to build a high-quality diagnostic dataset. Third, schema-driven instruction tuning embeds explicit scoring criteria and reasoning into an efficient end-to-end model. Experiments on a 1,600-sample Gold Test Set show TTS-PRISM outperforms generalist models in human alignment. Profiling six TTS paradigms establishes intuitive diagnostic flags that reveal fine-grained capability differences. TTS-PRISM is open-source, with code and checkpoints at https://github.com/xiaomi-research/tts-prism.

OneVL: One-Step Latent Reasoning and Planning with Vision-Language Explanation

Chain-of-Thought (CoT) reasoning has become a powerful driver of trajectory prediction in VLA-based autonomous driving, yet its autoregressive nature imposes a latency cost that is prohibitive for real-time deployment. Latent CoT methods attempt to close this gap by compressing reasoning into continuous hidden states, but consistently fall short of their explicit counterparts. We suggest that this is due to purely linguistic latent representations compressing a symbolic abstraction of the world, rather than the causal dynamics that actually govern driving. Thus, we present OneVL (One-step latent reasoning and planning with Vision-Language explanations), a unified VLA and World Model framework that routes reasoning through compact latent tokens supervised by dual auxiliary decoders. Alongside a language decoder that reconstructs text CoT, we introduce a visual world model decoder that predicts future-frame tokens, forcing the latent space to internalize the causal dynamics of road geometry, agent motion, and environmental change. A three-stage training pipeline progressively aligns these latents with trajectory, language, and visual objectives, ensuring stable joint optimization. At inference, the auxiliary decoders are discarded and all latent tokens are prefilled in a single parallel pass, matching the speed of answer-only prediction. Across four benchmarks, OneVL becomes the first latent CoT method to surpass explicit CoT, delivering state-of-the-art accuracy at answer-only latency, and providing direct evidence that tighter compression, when guided in both language and world-model supervision, produces more generalizable representations than verbose token-by-token reasoning.

LLM-Guided Semantic Bootstrapping for Interpretable Text Classification with Tsetlin Machines

Pretrained language models (PLMs) like BERT provide strong semantic representations but are costly and opaque, while symbolic models such as the Tsetlin Machine (TM) offer transparency but lack semantic generalization. We propose a semantic bootstrapping framework that transfers LLM knowledge into symbolic form, combining interpretability with semantic capacity. Given a class label, an LLM generates sub-intents that guide synthetic data creation through a three-stage curriculum (seed, core, enriched), expanding semantic diversity. A Non-Negated TM (NTM) learns from these examples to extract high-confidence literals as interpretable semantic cues. Injecting these cues into real data enables a TM to align clause logic with LLM-inferred semantics. Our method requires no embeddings or runtime LLM calls, yet equips symbolic models with pretrained semantic priors. Across multiple text classification tasks, it improves interpretability and accuracy over vanilla TM, achieving performance comparable to BERT while remaining fully symbolic and efficient.

The Price of Ignorance: Information-Free Quotation for Data Retention in Machine Unlearning

When users exercise data deletion rights under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and similar regulations, mobile network operators face a tradeoff: excessive machine unlearning degrades model accuracy and incurs retraining costs, yet existing pricing mechanisms for data retention require the server to know every user's private privacy and accuracy preferences, which is infeasible under the very regulations that motivate unlearning. We ask: what is the welfare cost of operating without this private information? We design an information-free ascending quotation mechanism where the server broadcasts progressively higher prices and users self-select their data supply, requiring no knowledge of users' parameters. Under complete information, the protocol admits a unique subgame-perfect Nash equilibrium characterized by single-period selling. We formalize the Price of Ignorance -- the welfare gap between optimal personalized pricing (which knows everything) and our information-free quotation (which knows nothing) -- and prove a three-regime efficiency ordering. Numerical evaluation across seven mechanisms and 5000 Monte Carlo runs shows that this price is near zero: the information-free mechanism achieves >=99% of the welfare of its information-intensive benchmarks, while providing noise-robust guarantees and comparable fairness.

Are LLM-Enhanced Graph Neural Networks Robust against Poisoning Attacks?

Large Language Models (LLMs) have advanced Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) by enriching node representations with semantic features, giving rise to LLM-enhanced GNNs that achieve notable performance gains. However, the robustness of these models against poisoning attacks, which manipulate both graph structures and textual attributes during training, remains unexplored. To bridge this gap, we propose a robustness assessment framework that systematically evaluates LLM-enhanced GNNs under poisoning attacks. Our framework enables comprehensive evaluation across multiple dimensions. Specifically, we assess 24 victim models by combining eight LLM- or Language Model (LM)-based feature enhancers with three representative GNN backbones. To ensure diversity in attack coverage, we incorporate six structural poisoning attacks (both targeted and non-targeted) and three textual poisoning attacks operating at the character, word, and sentence levels. Furthermore, we employ four real-world datasets, including one released after the emergence of LLMs, to avoid potential ground truth leakage during LLM pretraining, thereby ensuring fair evaluation. Extensive experiments show that LLM-enhanced GNNs exhibit significantly higher accuracy and lower Relative Drop in Accuracy (RDA) than a shallow embedding-based baseline across various attack settings. Our in-depth analysis identifies key factors that contribute to this robustness, such as the effective encoding of structural and label information in node representations. Based on these insights, we outline future research directions from both offensive and defensive perspectives, and propose a new combined attack along with a graph purification defense. To support future research, we release the source code of our framework at~\url{https://github.com/CyberAlSec/LLMEGNNRP}.

UniAI-GraphRAG: Synergizing Ontology-Guided Extraction, Multi-Dimensional Clustering, and Dual-Channel Fusion for Robust Multi-Hop Reasoning

Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) systems face significant challenges in complex reasoning, multi-hop queries, and domain-specific QA. While existing GraphRAG frameworks have made progress in structural knowledge organization, they still have limitations in cross-industry adaptability, community report integrity, and retrieval performance. This paper proposes UniAI-GraphRAG, an enhanced framework built upon open-source GraphRAG. The framework introduces three core innovations: (1) Ontology-Guided Knowledge Extraction that uses predefined Schema to guide LLMs in accurately identifying domain-specific entities and relations; (2) Multi-Dimensional Community Clustering Strategy that improves community completeness through alignment completion, attribute-based clustering, and multi-hop relationship clustering; (3) Dual-Channel Graph Retrieval Fusion that balances QA accuracy and performance through hybrid graph and community retrieval. Evaluation results on MultiHopRAG benchmark show that UniAI-GraphRAG outperforms mainstream open source solutions (e.g.LightRAG) in comprehensive F1 scores, particularly in inference and temporal queries. The code is available at https://github.com/UnicomAI/wanwu/tree/main/rag/rag_open_source/rag_core/graph.

Borderless Long Speech Synthesis

Most existing text-to-speech (TTS) systems either synthesize speech sentence by sentence and stitch the results together, or drive synthesis from plain-text dialogues alone. Both approaches leave models with little understanding of global context or paralinguistic cues, making it hard to capture real-world phenomena such as multi-speaker interactions (interruptions, overlapping speech), evolving emotional arcs, and varied acoustic environments. We introduce the Borderless Long Speech Synthesis framework for agent-centric, borderless long audio synthesis. Rather than targeting a single narrow task, the system is designed as a unified capability set spanning VoiceDesigner, multi-speaker synthesis, Instruct TTS, and long-form text synthesis. On the data side, we propose a "Labeling over filtering/cleaning" strategy and design a top-down, multi-level annotation schema we call Global-Sentence-Token. On the model side, we adopt a backbone with a continuous tokenizer and add Chain-of-Thought (CoT) reasoning together with Dimension Dropout, both of which markedly improve instruction following under complex conditions. We further show that the system is Native Agentic by design: the hierarchical annotation doubles as a Structured Semantic Interface between the LLM Agent and the synthesis engine, creating a layered control protocol stack that spans from scene semantics down to phonetic detail. Text thereby becomes an information-complete, wide-band control channel, enabling a front-end LLM to convert inputs of any modality into structured generation commands, extending the paradigm from Text2Speech to borderless long speech synthesis.

Clutter-Resilient ISAC for Low-Altitude Wireless Networks: A 5G Base Station-Compatible Protocol, Waveform, and Prototype

Integrated sensing and communications (ISAC) has been envisioned as a promising solution to support emerging services in low-altitude wireless networks (LAWNs), where upgrading 5G ground base stations (GBS) toward new active sensing systems with wide coverage, low cost, high accuracy, and favorable spectrum compatibility, is strongly desired. However, such an evolution faces several critical challenges, particularly in the detection and tracking of weak and slow unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). These challenges include ISAC waveform design, clutter cancellation resilient to high clutter-to-noise ratios (CNRs), and efficient Doppler separation between UAVs and clutter. To that end, we summarize potential solutions and raise a comprehensive framework on implementing the 5Gadvanced (5G-A) GBS. Outfield experiments demonstrate that the developed 5G-A GBS can effectively track weak and slow targets at distances exceeding 1 kilometer, while incurring only a 1.2% downlink rate loss relative to commercial 5G-A GBS.
