    Video2GUI: Synthesizing Large-Scale Interaction Trajectories for Generalized GUI Agent Pretraining

    🤗 Upvotes: 121 | cs.CL, cs.AI, cs.CV, cs.LG Authors: Weimin Xiong, Shuhao Gu, Bowen Ye, Zihao Yue, Lei Li, Feifan Song, Sujian Li, Hao Tian Title: Video2GUI: Synthesizing Large-Scale Interaction Trajectories for Generalized GUI Agent Pretraining Arxiv: http://arxiv.org/abs/2605.14747v1 Abstract: Recent advances in multimodal large language models have driven growing interest in graphical user interface (GUI) agents, yet their generalization remains constrained by the scarcity of large-scale training data spanning diverse real-world applications. Existing datasets rely heavily on costly manual annotations and are typically confined to narrow domains. To address this challenge, we propose Video2GUI, a fully automated framework that extracts grounded GUI interaction trajectories directly from unlabeled Internet videos. Video2GUI employs a coarse-to-fine filtering strategy to identify high-quality GUI tutorial videos and convert them into structured agent trajectories. Applying this pipeline to 500 million video metadata entries, we construct WildGUI, a large-scale dataset containing 12 million interaction trajectories spanning over 1,500 applications and websites. Pre-training Qwen2.5-VL and Mimo-VL on WildGUI yields consistent improvements of 5-20% across multiple GUI grounding and action benchmarks, matching or surpassing state-of-the-art performance. We will release both the WildGUI dataset and the Video2GUI pipeline to support future research of GUI agents.

    Mega-ASR: Towards In-the-wild^2 Speech Recognition via Scaling up Real-world Acoustic Simulation

    🤗 Upvotes: 115 | cs.SD, cs.AI, cs.CL, cs.MM, eess.AS Authors: Zhifei Xie, Kaiyu Pang, Haobin Zhang, Deheng Ye, Xiaobin Hu, Shuicheng Yan, Chunyan Miao Title: Mega-ASR: Towards In-the-wild^2 Speech Recognition via Scaling up Real-world Acoustic Simulation Arxiv: http://arxiv.org/abs/2605.19833v1 Abstract: Despite rapid advances in automatic speech recognition (ASR) and large audio-language models, robust recognition in real-world environments remains limited by an "acoustic robustness bottleneck": models often lose acoustic grounding and produce omissions or hallucinations under severe, compositional distortions. We propose Mega-ASR, a unified ASR-in-the-wild framework that combines scalable compound-data construction with progressive acoustic-to-semantic optimization. We introduce Voices-in-the-Wild-2M, covering 7 classic acoustic phenomena and 54 physically plausible compound scenarios, and train Mega-ASR with Acoustic-to-Semantic Progressive Supervised Fine-Tuning and Dual-Granularity WER-Gated Policy Optimization. Extensive experiments demonstrate that Mega-ASR achieves significant advantages over prior state-of-the-art systems on adverse-condition ASR benchmarks (45.69% vs. 54.01% on VOiCES R4-B-F, and 21.49% vs. 29.34% on NOIZEUS Sta-0). On complex compositional acoustic scenarios, Mega-ASR further delivers over 30% relative WER reduction against strong open- and closed-source baselines, establishing a scalable paradigm for robust ASR in-the-wild.

    Enhancing Train-Free Infinite-Frame Generation for Consistent Long Videos

    🤗 Upvotes: 83 | cs.CV Authors: X. Feng, J. Zhu, M. Wu, C. Chen, F. Mao, H. Guo, J. Wu, X. Chu, K. Huang Title: Enhancing Train-Free Infinite-Frame Generation for Consistent Long Videos Arxiv: http://arxiv.org/abs/2605.18233v1 Abstract: Without incurring significant computational overhead, train-free long video generation aims to enable foundation video generation models to produce longer videos. Frame-level autoregressive frameworks, e.g., FIFO-diffusion, offer the advantage of generating infinitely long videos with constant memory consumption. However, the mismatch between training and inference, coupled with the challenge of maintaining long-term consistency, limits the effective utilization of foundation models. To mitigate these concerns, we propose \textbf{MIGA}, a novel infinite-frame long video generation method. Firstly, we propose an effective two-stage alignment mechanism that mitigates the training-inference gap by reducing the excessive noise span fed to the model. We then introduce an innovative dual consistency enhancement mechanism, where the self-reflection approach corrects early high-noise frames and the long-range frame guidance approach leverages later low-noise frames with broad coverage to steer generation, jointly improving temporal consistency. Extensive experiments on VBench and NarrLV demonstrate the state-of-the-art performance of MIGA. Our project page is available at https://xiaokunfeng.github.io/miga_homepage/.

    IndusAgent: Reinforcing Open-Vocabulary Industrial Anomaly Detection with Agentic Tools

    🤗 Upvotes: 43 | cs.CV Authors: Rongbin Tan, Fangfang Lin, Zhenlong Yuan, Min Qiu, Kejin Cui, Mengmeng Wang, Yi Wang, Zijian Song, Zhiyuan Wang, Jiyuan Wang, Yue Wang, Shuhan Song§, Huawei Cao Title: IndusAgent: Reinforcing Open-Vocabulary Industrial Anomaly Detection with Agentic Tools Arxiv: http://arxiv.org/abs/2605.20682v1 Abstract: Multimodal large language models (MLLMs) have shown remarkable capability in bridging visual perception and textual reasoning, enabling zero-shot understanding across diverse industrial scenarios. However, their performance in open-vocabulary industrial anomaly detection (IAD) is often limited by domain-misaligned reasoning and hallucinated structural inferences. To address these challenges, we propose \textbf{IndusAgent}, a tool-augmented agentic framework for open-vocabulary IAD. Specifically, we first construct \textbf{Indus-CoT}, a structured dataset that integrates global visual observations, high-resolution local patches, and expert normalcy priors, providing supervision for fine-tuning the model on rigorous industrial inspection trajectories. Building on this, IndusAgent dynamically orchestrates a set of external tools, including dynamic region cropping, high-frequency feature enhancement, and prior retrieval, thus enabling the agent to actively resolve visual ambiguities and disentangle subtle anomalies. Furthermore, we introduce a gated reinforcement learning objective that jointly optimizes anomaly classification, localization accuracy, anomaly type reasoning, and efficient tool usage, ensuring that tool invocation occurs only when beneficial. Extensive evaluations on five industrial anomaly benchmarks, including MVTec-AD, VisA, MPDD, DTD, and SDD, demonstrate that IndusAgent achieves state-of-the-art zero-shot performance among all existing methods, validating our robustness and generalization capacity.

    When Vision Speaks for Sound

    🤗 Upvotes: 89 | cs.CV, cs.SD Authors: Xiaofei Wen, Wenjie Jacky Mo, Xingyu Fu, Rui Cai, Tinghui Zhu, Wendi Li, Yanan Xie, Muhao Chen, Peng Qi Title: When Vision Speaks for Sound Arxiv: http://arxiv.org/abs/2605.16403v1 Abstract: Despite rapid progress in video-capable MLLMs, we find that their apparent audio understanding in videos is often vision-driven: models rely on visual cues to infer or hallucinate acoustic information, rather than verifying the audio stream. This issue appears across both state-of-the-art open-source omni models and leading closed-source models from providers such as Google and OpenAI. We characterize this failure mode as an audio-visual Clever Hans effect, in which models appear (falsely) audio-grounded, but actually exploit visual-acoustic correlations without verifying whether the audio and visual streams are truly aligned. To systematically study this behavior, we introduce Thud, an intervention-driven probing framework based on three counterfactual audio edits: Shift, which tests temporal synchronization; Mute, which tests sound existence; and Swap, which tests audio-visual consistency. Beyond diagnosis, we further study a two-stage alignment recipe: intervention-derived preference pairs teach audio verification, while event-level general video preferences regularize the model against over-specialization. Our best 10K-sample recipe improves average performance across the three intervention dimensions by 28 percentage points, while slightly improving performance on general video and audio-visual QA benchmarks.

    Anti-Self-Distillation for Reasoning RL via Pointwise Mutual Information

    🤗 Upvotes: 71 | cs.LG, cs.AI, cs.CL Authors: Guobin Shen, Xiang Cheng, Chenxiao Zhao, Lei Huang, Jindong Li, Dongcheng Zhao, Xing Yu Title: Anti-Self-Distillation for Reasoning RL via Pointwise Mutual Information Arxiv: http://arxiv.org/abs/2605.11609v1 Abstract: On-policy self-distillation, where a student is pulled toward a copy of itself conditioned on privileged context (e.g., a verified solution or feedback), offers a promising direction for advancing reasoning capability without a stronger external teacher. Yet in math reasoning the gains are inconsistent, even when the same approach succeeds elsewhere. A pointwise mutual information analysis traces the failure to the privileged context itself: it inflates the teacher's confidence on tokens already implied by the solution (structural connectives, verifiable claims) and deflates it on deliberation tokens ("Wait", "Let", "Maybe") that drive multi-step search. We propose Anti-Self-Distillation (AntiSD), which ascends a divergence between student and teacher rather than descending it: this reverses the per-token sign and yields a naturally bounded advantage in one step. An entropy-triggered gate disables the term once the teacher entropy collapses, completing a drop-in replacement for default self-distillation. Across five models from 4B to 30B parameters on math reasoning benchmarks, AntiSD reaches the GRPO baseline's accuracy in 2 to 10x fewer training steps and improves final accuracy by up to 11.5 points. AntiSD opens a path to scalable self-improvement, where a language model bootstraps its own reasoning through its training signal.

    AutoResearchClaw: Self-Reinforcing Autonomous Research with Human-AI Collaboration

    🤗 Upvotes: 53 | cs.AI Authors: Jiaqi Liu, Shi Qiu, Mairui Li, Bingzhou Li, Haonian Ji, Siwei Han, Xinyu Ye, Peng Xia, Zihan Dong, Congyu Zhang, Letian Zhang, Guiming Chen, Haoqin Tu, Xinyu Yang, Lu Feng, Xujiang Zhao, Haifeng Chen, Jiawei Zhou, Xiao Wang, Weitong Zhang, Hongtu Zhu, Yun Li, Jieru Mei, Hongliang Fei, Jiaheng Zhang, Linjie Li, Linjun Zhang, Yuyin Zhou, Sheng Wang, Caiming Xiong, James Zou, Zeyu Zheng, Cihang Xie, Mingyu Ding, Huaxiu Yao Title: AutoResearchClaw: Self-Reinforcing Autonomous Research with Human-AI Collaboration Arxiv: http://arxiv.org/abs/2605.20025v1 Abstract: Automating scientific discovery requires more than generating papers from ideas. Real research is iterative: hypotheses are challenged from multiple perspectives, experiments fail and inform the next attempt, and lessons accumulate across cycles. Existing autonomous research systems often model this process as a linear pipeline: they rely on single-agent reasoning, stop when execution fails, and do not carry experience across runs. We present AutoResearchClaw, a multi-agent autonomous research pipeline built on five mechanisms: structured multi-agent debate for hypothesis generation and result analysis, a self-healing executor with a \textsc{Pivot}/\textsc{Refine} decision loop that transforms failures into information, verifiable result reporting that prevents fabricated numbers and hallucinated citations, human-in-the-loop collaboration with seven intervention modes spanning full autonomy to step-by-step oversight, and cross-run evolution that converts past mistakes into future safeguards. On ARC-Bench, a 25-topic experiment-stage benchmark, AutoResearchClaw outperforms AI Scientist v2 by 54.7%. A human-in-the-loop ablation across seven intervention modes reveals that precise, targeted collaboration at high-leverage decision points consistently outperforms both full autonomy and exhaustive step-by-step oversight. We position AutoResearchClaw as a research amplifier that augments rather than replaces human scientific judgment. Code is available at https://github.com/aiming-lab/AutoResearchClaw.
