Familiar letters, not related languages, let unseen languages into a shared space of meaning

arXiv:2611.06006v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Hundreds of languages have written text but almost no translations, and whether a model learning one from untranslated text builds on a related language or familiar letters is unclear: they usually coincide. Here we show that familiar letters, not a related language, let an unseen language into a shared space of meaning. GlyphMind, a tokenizer-free vision transformer that reads text as pixels and lets any sentence be shown in any script, was pretrained to align translations across 27 writing systems. Adapted on untranslated Lao, a language and script it had never seen, it retrieved English translations seven times as often as the strongest simple baseline. Rewritten in unfamiliar letters, Lao did not enter although its close relative Thai was in pretraining; Santali, which had none, entered in Devanagari, familiar from Hindi, but not in its own script. Transliteration into familiar scripts may thus open multilingual models to languages without translations.

ProtoEEG: Structured Prototype Alignment for EEG Visual Decoding

arXiv:2610.33065v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: EEG visual decoding remains difficult because scalp recordings are noisy, spatially coarse, and variable across trials and subjects. Most systems align each trial with a dense image embedding, although that embedding mixes semantic content with instance-specific texture, pose, and background. This target can demand details absent from EEG and provides no explicit account of the visual factors supporting a prediction. We propose \textbf{ProtoEEG}, a prototype-mediated framework that reformulates EEG--image alignment as soft composition over a shared learnable visual codebook. A trainable EEG encoder and a frozen visual teacher produce assignment distributions over the same $K=64$ prototypes. Their weighted reconstructions form a structured rep

EKT-Router: Expert-Evidence Alignment for Embodied Vision-Language Models

arXiv:2610.33044v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Embodied vision-language models must answer questions from partial, evolving observations. Their success depends on both the reasoning capability selected and the evidence available to it. Expert routers adapt internal computation, while tool-augmented systems acquire external evidence; choosing these independently can leave a suitable expert without the evidence it needs. We introduce EKT-Router, a bounded framework that jointly selects a capability expert, optional knowledge, and perceptual tools. Outcome-derived signatures represent the overlapping strengths of General, Spatial Reasoning, and Spatiotemporal experts. A joint utility scores complete expert-evidence routes under a call budget. After acquisition, a packet verifier admits valid

POS-Signature Demonstration Retrieval for In-Context Dependency Parsing

arXiv:2610.31966v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Demonstrations for in-context learning are often retrieved by semantic similarity, which may be a poor proxy for relevance in structured prediction. We study demonstration selection for Universal Dependencies parsing with a POS-signature policy that represents sentences with weighted part-of-speech statistics and retrieves three length-compatible, gold-parsed examples from the labeled training split. We evaluate two open-weight language models without fine-tuning on all 2,077 sentences of the UD English Web Treebank test set, comparing the policy with shot- and format-matched fixed and semantic three-shot baselines, as well as zero-shot, chain-of-thought, and critique-refinement systems. POS-signature retrieval yields the highest labeled atta

Don't Forget What You Just Learned: Self-Directed Repair Turns Agent Mistakes Into Lasting Lessons

arXiv:2610.31846v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Intelligent agents should learn from their mistakes so that experience leads to continuous improvement. Yet today's agents recover from a mistake only temporarily: in-context reflections are easily forgotten across sessions and compete for limited context, while full-parameter fine-tuning is expensive and can interfere with existing capabilities. We introduce Self-Direction, a mechanism for agents to learn from mistakes that combines the benefits of temporary in-context retries and policy updates. When an agent fails a task, it reflects on its own trajectory in order to extract a lesson and immediately distills it into a lightweight low-rank adapter. By keeping the original weights frozen, Self-Direction prevents adapter training from overwri

LazyFlash: Forward-Dense, Backward-Sparse Attention for Accelerated Long-Context Fine-Tuning

arXiv:2610.31911v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: As large language models (LLMs) process increasingly long sequences, attention becomes a major computational bottleneck. Sparse attention mostly targets inference, yet many methods still train densely or cannot support sparse training, and their added complexity makes sparsity hard to turn into wall-clock speedups, leaving dense attention widely used in practice. This paper introduces LazyFlash, a forward-dense, backward-sparse attention method built on the observation that attention training is dominated by the backward pass. LazyFlash keeps the forward pass exactly dense, so the trained model remains a standard dense model that existing systems such as vLLM can serve without any change. For the backward pass, LazyFlash proposes a gradient-a

PPO vs. SAC: A Comparative Study for Cooperative Motion Control of Dual-Arm Space Robots

arXiv:2610.32034v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The growing population of orbital debris has intensified interest in active debris removal and on-orbit servicing, for which dual-arm space manipulators offer improved grasping stability and load distribution relative to single-arm systems. However, coordinating two manipulators under inter-arm collision avoidance, orientation alignment, and sensing uncertainty remains challenging. This paper develops a coordinated reinforcement learning framework for cooperative motion planning of a dual-arm space manipulator in a target-reaching task with inter-arm collision-avoidance constraints. A centralized state representation combines joint-space, end-effector, and target-relative information, while a multi-objective reward function promotes target-re

IQuest-Q1: Advancing Foundation Capabilities for Agentic CLI Systems

arXiv:2610.30949v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We present IQuest-Q1, a sparse Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) agentic foundation model with 320B total parameters (15B activated). IQuest-Q1 is developed through a three-stage process: (1) stable and efficient pre-training, combining Stable SplitNorm, Muon, and muP with a two-stage curriculum whose second stage increases the coding-data mixture, preserving a wide stability margin between safe and optimal learning rates; (2) fine-grained mid-training, expanding the data mixture across domains and formats and progressively extending the context; and (3) multi-scaffold with multi-version post-training, combining SFT, domain-specialized RL, and MOPD across various scaffolds to integrate complementary training signals and strengthen agentic coding capab

OFA: Towards Building a One-For-All Model

2022 is a year of generalist models! With the bloom of multimodal pretraining, especially the unified model, we have witnessed the opportunity to building a generalist model that is capable of processing tasks of different modalities or multi-modalities! Thus, we propose OFA1, namely One-For-All, a unified multimodal pretrained model that unifies understanding and generation tasks concerning modalities into a single framework, and we pretrain OFA with the instruction-based multitask-pretraining that endows it with multiple capabilities.
