    FrameForge adapts video models for diverse conditional image generation with input-adaptive temporal relations

    FrameForge leverages pretrained video diffusion models by dynamically selecting temporal positional embeddings and introducing a latent reasoning state, achieving superior results on subject-driven generation, canny-to-image generation, and image editing benchmarks.

    R²Orch improves agent orchestration via nested self-play and skill withdrawal

    R²Orch introduces a recursive self-play framework with an inner loop improving an orchestrator on self-chosen tasks and an outer loop withdrawing unhelpful skills, achieving state-of-the-art results on 12 diverse benchmarks with zero-skill deployment.

    Co-designing a lightweight predictor with a costly executor improves interaction efficiency toward AGI

    This paper proposes a conditional interaction loop where a cheap System-1 predicts the utility of candidate interactions, gating which costly System-2 executions occur, improving compute efficiency by up to the inverse density of useful interactions, and formalizes this as a scaling coordinate.

    Paper: Does Scaling Toward AGI Depend on What System-1 Lets System-2 Execute? · Qi Wang, Yun Qu, Lizhou Cai and 10 others
