    Qianju Technology releases the predictive world model Polibrain, a year earlier than the similar research by the LeCun team.

    Qianju Technology released the predictive world model Polibrain, a year ahead of similar research by the LeCun team. The model uses polynomial representation and causal memory techniques to enable robots to learn autonomous decision-making based on changes in the physical world and has been adapted to various robot forms such as quadrupedal, humanoid, and wheeled. Polibrain employs a loosely coupled architecture, separating environmental understanding from action execution, supporting reuse across different architectures, and providing intelligent capabilities for various robots.

    Perplexity and NVIDIA researchers have launched JOLT: a joint teacher-student reinforcement learning method.

    Perplexity and NVIDIA have jointly launched JOLT, a post-training method for language models that uses joint online learning and teaching, where a single model plays both teacher and student roles. The teacher model receives privileged information and accepts KL punishment to approach the student model, while the student model learns through token-level distillation signals from the teacher model.

    Hugging Face Daily Papers: Research on continuous pre-training of embodied agents in diverse virtual worlds

    Research has improved the learning ability of embodied agents in virtual worlds through continuous pre-training (CPT) across three dimensions: data scale, diversity, and model size, but there are limitations in long-distance world generalization. The study tested 120 configurations covering parameters from 0.8B to 27B, data budgets from 50 to 1600 hours, and five data mixtures. It was found that increasing data volume improves internal performance, diversity enhances related world transfer, and larger model sizes improve data efficiency but result in worse long-distance generalization.

    Microsoft researchers and collaborators combined new mathematical ideas with human-guided AI to address the core problem of the KLS conjecture in high-dimensional geometry and probability.

    Microsoft researchers and collaborators combined new mathematical ideas with human-guided AI to prove the KLS conjecture in high-dimensional geometry and probability, which has been proposed for 31 years and widely regarded as the central unsolved problem in the field. AI tools explore candidate methods and perform detailed derivations, researchers evaluate, prune, and reorient the search, ultimately proving geometric principles in high-dimensional spaces, making the barrier no longer grow unbounded with increasing dimensions. Independent researchers confirm the result, identify key criteria, and complete formal verification with machine checking.

    vLLM enhances the TTFT performance of multi-round agent workloads through bidirectional KV transmission.

    vLLM's bidirectional KV transmission mechanism reduces redundant calculations by allowing the decoding node to return previously computed KV cache to the pre-filled node in subsequent dialogue turns. In multi-round benchmark tests on AWS EC2 P5en instances, it improved the TTFT of Qwen3-32B by 1.6x and zai-org/GLM-5-FP8 by 3.3x. This feature is implemented by extending the NIXL KV connector and utilizing a KV cache-aware router to coordinate KV reuse across dialogue turns.
