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.

TiPToP: A Modular Open-Vocabulary Planning System for Robotic Manipulation

We present TiPToP, an extensible modular system that combines pretrained vision foundation models with an existing Task and Motion Planner (TAMP) to solve multi-step manipulation tasks directly from input RGB images and natural-language instructions. Our system aims to be simple and easy-to-use: it can be installed and run on a standard DROID setup in under one hour and adapted to new embodiments with minimal effort. We evaluate TiPToP -- which requires zero robot data -- over 28 tabletop manipulation tasks in simulation and the real world and find it matches or outperforms $π_{0.5}\text{-DROID}$, a vision-language-action (VLA) model fine-tuned on 350 hours of embodiment-specific demonstrations. TiPToP's modular architecture enables us to analyze the system's failure modes at the component level. We analyze results from an evaluation of 173 trials and identify directions for improvement. We release TiPToP open-source to further research on modular manipulation systems and tighter integration between learning and planning. Project website and code: https://tiptop-robot.github.io

OmniGuide: Universal Guidance Fields for Enhancing Generalist Robot Policies

Vision-language-action(VLA) models have shown great promise as generalist policies for a large range of relatively simple tasks. However, they demonstrate limited performance on more complex tasks, such as those requiring complex spatial or semantic understanding, manipulation in clutter, or precise manipulation. We propose OMNIGUIDE, a flexible framework that improves VLA performance on such tasks by leveraging arbitrary sources of guidance, such as 3D foundation models, semantic-reasoning VLMs, and human pose models. We show how many kinds of guidance can be naturally expressed as differentiable energy functions with task-specific attractors and repellers located in 3D space, that influence the sampling of VLA actions. In this way, OMNIGUIDE enables guidance sources with complementary task-relevant strengths to improve a VLA model's performance on challenging tasks. Extensive experiments in both simulation and real-world environments, across diverse sources of guidance, demonstrate that OMNIGUIDE enhances the performance of state-of-the-art generalist policies (e.g., $π_{0.5}$, GR00T N1.6) significantly across success and safety rates. Critically, our unified framework matches or surpasses the performance of prior methods designed to incorporate specific sources of guidance into VLA policies.
